Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 535 - 536: Never Stop till One’s Goal is Reached

Chapter 535: Chapter 536: Never Stop till One’s Goal is Reached

Looking at the detached and indifferent figure of Ye Xingbei, Ye Xinglan felt deeply ashamed.

When Shi Shijun was pressing him hard, he, as Ye Xingbei’s own cousin, abandoned her.

It was instead Gu Junzhu who intervened, relieving Ye Xingbei’s urgent predicament.

This made him feel exceptionally incompetent.

He opened and closed his mouth, wanting to explain, but found that any language at this moment seemed pale and weak.

After a moment, he finally said in a soft voice: “Beibei around when compared to Fifth Brother, I may be limited in ability. But I assure you, my love for you is no less than his.”

Gu Junzhu scoffed, “Ye Xinglan, are you planning not to save face today?”

Ye Xinglan tightened his lips, looked at him: “Fifth brother, what I said is sincere. Beibei is my only little sister, and my love for her is no less than yours.”

“Seeing you, I now know what it means when people say ‘Much talk and little do’,” Gu Junzhu crossed his arms, looked at him lazily, with a hint of contempt in his eyes. “Ye Xinglan, love is shown in actions, not words! You, for the sake of peace, in order to maintain the relations between the Shi family and the Ye family, pushed Beibei out to take fifty lashes. How dare you still say you love Beibei! It seems you’re really not planning on keeping your face!”

“No, no,” Ye Xinglan defended: “I wasn’t trying to maintain the relationship between the Shi family and the Ye family, I was worried that the Shi family would call the police that Beibei would be arrested.”

“Really?” Gu Junzhu raised his eyebrows: “If just now when Shi Shijun was pressing you, you had been like Chi Yu or Chi Zhan, telling Shi Shijun that if he dared to harm Beibei, you would fight till death with the Shi family or threatened the Shi family that if they dared to hurt Beibei, you would break off the engagement with Shi Qianling, from then on, they would part ways, do you think the Shi family would still insist on calling the police?”

“They would!” Ye Xinglan said: “Both the Shi family and Shi Shijun would not accept threats, especially when they are in the right.”

“Ye Xinglan, don’t you understand?” Gu Junzhu looked at him, saying slowly: “What hurts Beibei is not that you didn’t come up with a solution for her, but your attitude!”

“From the beginning to the end, you have put Beibei in a position that can be sacrificed.” ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

“If you truly care and love Beibei, you wouldn’t consider whether the other party would accept it, let alone weigh the pros and cons. You would shout out directly, who dares to hurt my sister, I will fight to the death with you, instead of calmly thinking about how to appease the Shi family.”

“To put it bluntly, if Shi Shijun were to harm Ye Xingli today, would you like Chi Yu just now, tell Shi Shijun to his face, from today on, it’s a fight to the death between the Shi and Ye families.”

“You pushed Beibei out to calm the Shi family’s anger, in essence, you just don’t have Beibei at heart.”

Gu Junzhu’s words, like a bucket of cold water poured over Ye Xinglan’s head, made him shiver to his core.

He stared blankly at Ye Xingbei, his face pale, his fingertips shaking intensely at his side.

Is that so?

Although he claims to love Ye Xingbei, deep down in his heart, does he not actually believe it?

Chi Zhan, who was standing on the side, suddenly said: “Though I don’t know exactly what has happened, I can say with certainty that anyone wanting to punish my sister with fifty lashes would have to step over my dead body! If my sister made an unforgivable mistake, I would take the punishment on her behalf, and I would never let anyone lay a finger on her!”
