DEFROSTING THE COLD YOUNG MASTER

Chapter 554: Chapter 557: Confused Heart

She was already in her forties, but thanks to her good upkeep, the years had barely left any traces on her face, and she remained youthful and elegant.

Ye Wuwei was thin, his face a sickly pale color. He was handsome with a profound scholarly air about him as if he had stepped out of a painting. Despite his advanced age, he looked astonishingly young.

The pair seemed very well-matched as they sat face to face engrossed in their game of chess. The Lingzhi Double Ear Incense Burner next to them wafted fragrant plumes in the air, illuminating their striking appearances and making them look like a pair of immortals in a world of their own.

Gu Junzhu looked at them and sneered.

Just goes to show that faces can be deceiving.

Just by looking at their appearances, who could imagine that these two stunning individuals were rotten to the core, cold-hearted, cold-blooded? They had tossed away Ye Xiaobei, whom they had raised for five years, as if he were nothing.

They discarded him and yet denied it, pretending as if nothing had happened.

Ye Xiaobei had been fighting for his life several times, while they sat here, partaking in tea and chess, acting like reclusive sages.

Sarcasm flashed in Gu Junzhu’s eyes as he stepped forward abruptly and flipped over the chessboard.

The white jade chess pieces fell onto the table and floor, making a series of distinct sounds.

As the chess pieces hit the floor, Ye Xinglan, drenched in sweat, burst into the room. Seeing Gu Junzhu, his face filled with urgency, he asked in a panicked voice, “Fifth Brother, has Beibei been found?”

Ye Zhitong stood up abruptly and glared at Ye Xinglan, chiding him coldly, “Ah Lan, what’s with the panic? Get a grip!”

With her husband’s health in decline, the Ye family depended on Ye Xinglan to uphold their status, so she had always had strict expectations of him since he was young.
