Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 591 - 594: He is a Scapegoat, He Endured
Chapter 591: Chapter 594: He is a Scapegoat, He Endured
“Brother Lan, I understand that Uncle and Aunt treated me this way because they didn’t know my real background. Still, I feel heartbroken because even if I am truly Jiang Zhengxing’s daughter, I’ve been sincere in respecting them over the years. How could they abandon me so easily?”
Ye Xinglan nodded, his voice choked with emotion. “I understand, Beibei… I know all this. But please, for my dad’s sake, who is your father’s beloved younger brother, I beg you to see him. When he learned you were his elder brother’s daughter, he was so shocked that he spat blood and passed out. He hasn’t awakened yet. The doctor says emotional wounds need emotional healing. Your father’s emotional blockage is you. It could help him regain consciousness if he hears you say that you forgive him.”
“That’s fine, no problem,” Ye Xingbei smiled faintly, “I’ve said before that I won’t hate you. Hatred only brings me pain. But from now on, my ties with your Ye Family are severed. I won’t owe you anything for raising me. Brother Lan, is that acceptable?”
Ye Xinglan bent even lower, his eyes brimming with tears.
He gritted his teeth, “Yes.”
Beibei has long since stopped owing them anything.
But they owe Beibei.
It’s okay if Beibei severs ties with their family, as long as the Ye family doesn’t sever ties with her.
If given a chance in the future, he will do everything he can to make it up to Beibei.
Ye Xingbei exhaled gently and looked at Ye Xingli, “Brother Li, help Brother Lan up.”
Ye Xingli had been waiting for those words. He promptly helped Ye Xinglan off the ground.
Ye Xinglan turned to face Ye Xingbei, “Beibei, can we go see my father now?”
“No,” Gu Junzhu cut him off even before Ye Xingbei could speak, “Beibei needs bed rest. She’s injured.”
“But, my father’s condition can’t wait any longer.” Ye Xinglan was both anxious and heartbroken, cold sweat drenching his forehead.
Gu Junzhu scoffed, “Don’t you know that when a person is near death, unfulfilled desires can keep them alive? If their desires are fulfilled, they might let go and pass on.”
Ye Xinglan: “…”
It sounded… surprisingly logical.
“Xiao Shumiao, what are you gawking at? Eat!” Gu Junzhu slapped the little head of Xiao Shumiao and glanced at Ye Xinglan, “Go tell Ye Wuwei that if he doesn’t receive Ye Xiaobei’s forgiveness and dies, his brother and sister-in-law won’t forgive him either. Tell him to hold on until Ye Xiaobei comes to see him, or how can he die in peace?”
“…” Ye Xinglan felt a strong urge to spit blood.
But thinking about the guilt he bore, he held it in.
Moreover, despite Gu Junzhu’s harsh words, he spoke the truth.
When he goes back, he will soften Gu Junzhu’s words and tell his father that Beibei has been safely rescued but is still healing from her injuries, so he should focus on recovery.
Once his father’s health improves and Beibei recovers, she can see him.
Doing wrong is not a big deal, as long as there’s still a chance to make up for it.
What’s scarier is when the mistake is irreversible, and you’re left without the chance to make amends.
He’ll tell his father that if he leaves this world now, he’ll lose the chance to make amends for Beibei.
For his father, anything related to his elder brother is of great importance.
As long as his father holds on to the hope of making up for Beibei, perhaps he truly can wake up.
