Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 590 - 593 Beibei, I’m Sorry

Chapter 590: Chapter 593 Beibei, I’m Sorry

Ye Xingbei: “…Son, where did you learn all this nonsense?”

“In books!” Xiao Shumiao’s eyes gleamed, “Mum, I think what it says makes a lot of sense, it isn’t nonsense at all!”

Ye Xingbei: “…”

How was she supposed to explain what lovesickness was to a five-year-old?

Gu Junzhu chuckled, his shoulders shaking as he stuffed a piece of meat into Xiao Shumiao’s mouth, helping Ye Xingbei out of the awkward moment: “Xiao Shu, eat quickly. It’s not tasty when it gets cold!”

“Uh-huh!” As a bona fide food lover, Xiao Shumiao vigorously nodded, tucked into his meal, and temporarily forgot about the “lovesickness”.

Ye Xingbei exhaled in relief, picked up some food for the unexpectedly considerate Fifth Lord of Gu, who didn’t take the opportunity to kick her when she was down and put it on his plate. Just when she was about to say something, the door was knocked and Ye Xingli walked in supporting Ye Xinglan.

Seeing the half-dead-looking Ye Xinglan, Ye Xingbei’s chopsticks dropped onto the table, and she stared wide-eyed in surprise: “Brother Lan? What happened to you?”

Getting here had already drained all of Ye Xinglan’s strength.

Upon seeing Ye Xingbei, he let out the breath he had been holding in, and his body slumped down, falling to his knees.

Ye Xingbei was taken aback and involuntarily straightened herself, looking bewildered: “Brother Lan?”

“Beibei, I’ve come to apologize to you!” Ye Xinglan unbuckled his shirt and stripped it off.

The whip marks on his back hadn’t been treated overnight. The blood had already dried and stuck his shirt to his back.

He forcefully tore the shirt off, causing the dried wounds to rip open again, and fresh blood seeped out.

Struggling, he turned his back to Ye Xingbei, “Beibei, these are self-inflicted. I apologize to you and hope that you can forgive me, forgive my parents.”

Being so weak, his hands were supporting his body from collapsing onto the floor, his entire body trembling, his voice quivering: “Beibei, I apologize to you for the matter of my parents handing you over to Wu Qizhen, I am the main culprit. If I hadn’t been afraid and dilly-dallied about telling my parents that you were uncle’s biological daughter, they wouldn’t have made such a terrible mistake.”

“All in all, it’s all my fault, Beibei, I was wrong, and I hope that you can forgive me. If you think the punishment I received is still not enough, feel free to tell me, as long as you request it, I will definitely do it!”

Ye Xingbei was silent for a moment, then said calmly: “Brother Lan, there’s no need for this. I have already decided not to hold a grudge against uncle and aunt. I read many stories where no person who harbored hatred could be truly happy. I feel lucky and happy now. Life is too short and I don’t want to waste my precious time hating someone. Instead, I’d rather think about how to bring happiness and joy to the people who love me and the ones I love. However…”

She chuckled, her expression and voice were both calm and peaceful, “Brother Lan, I probably won’t be able to regard you and uncle and aunt as family in the future. I was always grateful for the Ye Family’s kindness, regarded the Ye Family as my home, and you, uncle and aunt as my family. That’s why I was unguarded against uncle and aunt and they made it so easy to plot against me, treated me like trash and handed me over to Wu Qizhen.”

Ye Xinglan kept his head down in shame, feeling deeply ashamed: “I’m sorry… Beibei… I’m sorry…”
