Defrosting The Cold Young Master

Chapter 372: Chapter 373:1 won’t say anything if I’m not given any benefits!

Leng Peini was even worse, always suspecting that she had unspeakable relations with Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli – being as wary of her as if she were a thief. From time to time, she would use allusions to target and berate her.

But if she were to guess who it was that had replaced her life-saving chocolate, she would be at a loss.

Although Shi Qianling always acted superior in front of her and looked down on her, her feminine intuition told her that Shi Qianling was also constantly on guard against her getting into bed with Ye Xinglan. She had subtly warned her that a woman of such lowly reputation as herself was not fit for Ye Xinglan.

Before she returned to the country, she didn’t know that she was Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli’s first cousin.

Just like Shi Qianling and Leng Peini, she thought she was a poor left at the mercy of the Ye Family, which had kindly taken her in.

Although she was repulsed by the attitude of Shi Qianling and Leng Peini towards her, she always accepted adversity and dared not resist.

It wasn’t that she had no ability to fight back, but she didn’t want to put Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli in an awkward position between her and their girlfriends.

Before she returned to her home country, she had lived in the Ye family from the age of sixteen to twenty-one. During this time, Ye Xinglan was very strict with her. If she stepped out of line, Ye Xinglan would harshly punish her. This led her to be very afraid of Ye Xinglan and also made her place herself very low within the Ye Family.

Back then, she had been kicked out of the Jiang Family with nothing to her name and a helpless Xiao Shu to take care of. If the Ye family hadn’t taken her in, who knows what terrible things would have happened to her.

Shi Qianling and Leng Peini were the future mistresses of the Ye family, while she was just a pitiful creature taken in by them. How dare she quarrel with them?

However, some people can tolerate it for the sake of peace.

Others tolerate it, only to face even greater aggression from others.

She was convinced that she had been more than fair to Shi Qianling and Leng Peini. Yet one of the two just wouldn’t let her go, intent on seeing her dead!

Thinking back to the car ride to the Jiang Family that day, if it hadn’t been for Gu Junzhu saving her, she might have died an unnatural death because her life-saving chocolate had been replaced. Her eyes dimmed, and she sighed deeply.

This time, she would no longer tolerate and step back!

She wasn’t some pitiful creature living off the Ye Family, but the first cousin of Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli!

Even more so, her parents died in a tragic accident while looking for their missing brother.

Of course, she didn’t intend to blame her parents’ accidental deaths on her second uncle.

However, for these two reasons she could stand tall in front of Shi Qianling and Leng Peini – not like before, when she felt inferior because she was reliant on them and felt obligated to be tolerant and step back.

She let out a sigh, held Gu Junzhu’s face, “So, after all this babbling, who was it that replaced my life-saving chocolate and wanted to erase me from this world?”

“Is this how you ask for help?” Gu Junzhu pushed her hand away, his finger perched on his lips and a mischievous smile on his face. “Come on, darling, beg me nicely, and I’ll tell you.”

“Alright!” Ye Xingbei smiled coquettishly and leaned over to bite his lips hard.

Gu Junzhu hissed in pain, “I got it! You are not a stupid husky or a poodle, you’re a little wolf dog!”

Ye Xingbei laughed and pinched him, “Get out!”

Gu Junzhu rolled off her and lay on the bed, stretching out comfortably chuckling with a relaxed smile, “Anyway, I’m the type who doesn’t loose the hawk before seeing the hare.. Without benefits, I’m not saying anything!”
