Chapter 375 - 376: And Then The Truth Is Revealed?
Defrosting The Cold Young Master
With curiosity, Ye Xingbei asked, âWhat did you find out?â
Gu Junzhu, with his slender and beautiful index finger, gently touched his lip and said, âCome here, baby, give me a kiss, and then Iâll tell you!â
Ye Xingbei: â⦠Say itor not!â
Ye Xingbei glared at him, rolled off his body, lay on the bed, and turned her back to him.
Gu Junzhu chuckled, pinched her neck playfully like a small animal, âJingyuan found out that his father isnât Mr. Yu and Senior Madame Yuâs biological son.â
âJingyuanâs real grandfather is a rich businessman from the south, and his real grandmother is a young mistress from a big family, who is Senior Madame Yuâs cousin.â
âWhen Jingyuanâs real grandfather was alive, he was hot-tempered and indulged in eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling, had a bad reputation, and went to jail for murder. He was sentenced to death, and his real grandmother couldnât bear the blow and fell seriously ill.â
âJingyuanâs grandmother didnât have any other relatives, and on her deathbed, she called upon Mr. Yu and Senior Madame Yu and transferred all her property to them, entrusting her dying wishes to them to take care of Jingyuanâs father.â
âJingyuanâs father was still an infant at the time. Jingyuanâs grandmother didnât want her son to know about his murderer father. So she let Mr. Yu and Senior Madame Yu adopt Jingyuanâs father. She begged them to raise Jingyuanâs father as their own, considering Jingyuanâs grandfather had once saved Mr. Yu and Senior Madame Yuâs lives.â
Ye Xingbei was drawn into the history of Jingyuanâs father, she couldnât help but turn to look at him, âJingyuanâs grandfather saved Mr. Yu and Senior Madame Yuâs lives?â
âYes,â Gu Junzhu nodded, âAlthough Jingyuanâs grandfather had a bad temper and indulged in all vices, he had some virtues, and loyalty was one of them.â
âMr. Yu and Senior Madame Yu were once kidnapped. The kidnappers demanded a high ransom. The Yu family was not doing well at that time and couldnât afford the ransom. Knowing that Jingyuanâs grandfather was rich, they sought his help.â
âIn the end, it was Jingyuanâs grandfather who paid over half of the ransom money and saved Mr. Yu and Senior Madame Yu.â
Ye Xingbei frowned, âSince Jingyuanâs grandfather saved Mr. Yu and Senior Madame Yuâs lives, and they inherited all the property from Jingyuanâs grandfather, didnât they treat Jingyuanâs father well?â
âNo,â Gu Junzhu sighed as he pinched Ye Xingbeiâs cheek, âNot all sincerity can be rewarded with loyalty. Some people, like Mr. Yu and Senior Madame Yu, are ungrateful. They lived in Jingyuanâs fatherâs hometown for three years, inherited all the property of Jingyuanâs grandfather, and then brought Jingyuanâs father back to Beijing, fraudulently claiming that Jingyuanâs father was their third son born in the south.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âIn principle, they inherited a vast amount of wealth from Jingyuanâs grandfather. Considering Jingyuanâs grandfather saved their lives, they should have treated Jingyuanâs father well. But they did not.â
âThey favor the first and second brothers and treated Jingyuanâs father like an errand boy. He had the most work to do but received the least benefits.â
âEven though Jingyuanâs father was a devoted son, he was deeply aggrieved. He kept it to himself, which led to him being in a bad mood for a long time, causing his health to deteriorate. He handed over the family affairs to Jingyuan quite early.â
âThe eldest and second brothers were deadweights, and all they ever did was leech off Jingyuanâs family.â
âJingyuan had been fed up with them for a long time. After Jingyuanâs father handed his power and connections to Jingyuan, he began investigating his fatherâs history.â
Ye Xingbei raised her eyebrows, âSo the truth was revealed? Does Jingyuanâs father know about his real identity now?â
