Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 561 - 564: Falling Out

Chapter 561: Chapter 564: Falling Out

“No,” Ye Xinglan coldly stared at her, “I want Mue Ting. Give me Mue Ting, and I’ll consider pleading on behalf of the Shi family. If you can’t do that, then let’s cut off all ties here and now. From this day forward, the Shi family and the Ye family will be enemies. Your Shi family shall never step foot into my Ye residence again!”

The color drained from Shi Qianling’s face uncontrollably, bit by bit.

She didn’t harbor any illusion of luck.

Ye Xinglan explicitly requested for Mue Ting, and his attitude towards her had turned so icy cold; it couldn’t be a coincidence.

Did Ye Xinglan… know about her relationship with Mue Ting?

How could this happen?

She had been so careful.

She was only affectionate with Mue Ting in the privacy of her own home.

Outside the Shi residence, she and Mue Ting were like any ordinary master and servant, keeping a safe distance, not even sharing a flirtatious glance, leaving no trace of their secret relationship. How could Ye Xinglan have found out?

She felt a panic she had never experienced before, yet managed to force a smile. “Since Brother Lan values Mue Ting so highly, I’ll have him come over later. Since he’s not on duty today, I didn’t bring him with me.”

“Really? How convenient,” Ye Xinglan sneered, “Every time you see me, he’s not on duty. He sure knows how to enjoy life, takes a day off whenever he wants, especially when it coincides with when you’re meeting me. Your Shi family really know how to treat a bodyguard!”

Shi Qianling’s head buzzed, her body swaying uncontrollably.

Finally, she realized where the problem lay!

Mue Ting was young and deeply in love with her. He was filled with jealousy for Ye Xinglan, who could openly be with her.

She was afraid that Mue Ting wouldn’t control his expression and attitude when seeing Ye Xinglan, revealing their secret.

Every time she met Ye Xinglan, she would not bring Mue Ting. Even if she did, she would make sure he stayed a great distance away.

But whenever she wasn’t seeing Ye Xinglan, Mue Ting would always be with her. frёewebnoѵēl.com

She trusted Mue Ting.

She believed that if she ever faced danger, Mue Ting would protect her, even if it meant sacrificing himself.

She never imagined that such an insignificant detail would become the downfall of her secret relationship with Mue Ting.

Their secret relationship has been exposed.

And it had to be exposed when the circumstances were at their worst, at a time she desperately needed Ye Xinglan’s support.

She was struggling to maintain her composure, making sure she didn’t give herself away, yet her fear was so great that her facial features betrayed her anyway.

Seeing this, was there anything left for Ye Xinglan to question?

He looked at Shi Qianling as if she was trash. With a cold voice, he said: “Enough, stop pretending. I know everything. Mue Ting is your lover. For all this time, I, the Young Master of the Ye family, have been sharing a woman with a lowly servant. Shi Qianling, you must be very pleased, aren’t you?”

As she looked into Ye Xinglan’s cold, repulsed eyes, terror gripped Shi Qianling’s heart. She stumbled and almost fell.

She managed to steady herself, forcing a smile that looked worse than a cry. “Brother Lan, you’re mistaken! Mue Ting is just my bodyguard. How could there be anything more between us? Brother Lan, I…”

“Shut up!” Ye Xinglan cut her off with disgust. “Would I speak without evidence? Shi Qianling, your denials are useless! From this point on, all ties between you and me are severed. The Ye family and your Shi family are sworn enemies. Starting today, everyone who steps on your Shi family, counts as one of us, the Ye family!”
