Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 573 - 576: Waiting for Death
Chapter 573: Chapter 576: Waiting for Death
Ye Xingli looked at him with contempt, “What about your mother? Shi Qianying and Shi Qianling are terrible, your mother is even worse! Don’t tell me that the ones at fault are Shi Qianling and Shi Qianying, not the Shi family. Without the backing of the Shi family, would they dare to do as they please? And weren’t you helping Shi Qianying just a few days ago when you bullied Beibei?” freewebnσvel.cѳm
“I wasn’t there to bully Ye Xingbei. I just went to bring Shi Qianying home.” Shi Shijun tried to explain in a hurry, “I…”
“Enough,” Ye Xingli interrupted him, shrugging his shoulders, “I’m just a wastrel, I don’t care about these things. If you want to beg for mercy, go find my brother.”
With that, he led his people away.
Robbed by a feeling of intense despair, Shi Shijun’s vision darkened and his steps faltered, almost tripping over.
Indeed, an incompetent teammate was more terrifying than a strong enemy.
Three women in a family, one crazier and more vicious than the next. It would be absurd if the Shi family doesn’t fall.
“Ah Jun!” Shi Maotong barged in hurriedly, noticing the wreckage everywhere, shaking with fury, “This is an outrage! An absolute outrage!”
The butler had called him, telling him about how Ye Xingli had trashed his place.
He rushed back as quickly as he could, only to find that he was still a step too late.
“It’s not outrageous at all,” Shi Shijun seemed to have given up, displaying a reckless calmness, “Dad, do you know what Shi Qianling did? She was colluding with Mue Ting and cheated on Ye Xinglan. Now Ye Xinglan knows everything and has vowed revenge on our family.”
With a sarcastic chuckle, he continued, “Dad, all our hard work, what is it for? We prop up the company and the Shi family, busy as spinning tops, exhaustingly earning money for those three women. But in the end, what have they done for us? One of them managed to provoke the Chi family, another stirred trouble with Gu Junzhu, and yet another managed to offend even the Ye family, which had the best relations with us!”
With a weary shake of his head, he said, “Dad, let’s just give up and wait for death. Our family is done for!”
“What… what did you say?” Shi Maotong swayed, his face filled with disbelief.
“Dad, there’s no problem with your hearing,” Shi Shijun replied with a dry laugh, “That’s exactly the situation! Shi Qianling has been occupying the position of future Young Madam of the Ye family while keeping a male consort at home. Ye Xinglan has found out and wants to settle the score with our family!”
Shi Maotong’s vision turned dark, almost fainting from shock and rage.
He trembled with fury, gasping for some time before he blurted out, “Bastards! They’re all bastards!”
“It’s too late for cursing,” Shi Shijun chuckled, “Who you marry matters. A pretty face isn’t enough; the brain is important. If I were to marry, I’d definitely choose someone smart… but unfortunately, I might not have that chance. With the current situation of the Shi family, I don’t even know if I’ll survive, let alone think about marriage!”
“No, no!” Shi Maotong frantically shook his head, “The Shi family’s centuries-old foundation can’t be ruined in my hands! There must be a way… there must be a solution!”
Shi Shijun said nothing more.
Gazing at powerful enemies, he saw no hope at all.
He was ready to meet death.
“Let me think… think…” Shi Maotong was frantic, wracking his brain for a way to save the Shi family.
Shi Shijun remained silent, his hope extinguished.
Suddenly, Shi Maotong’s eyes lit up, “I’ve got it!”
