Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 377 - 378: She Can Reap What She Sows!

Chapter 377: Chapter 378: She Can Reap What She Sows!

“There are plenty of ways!” Ye Xingbei shrugged his shoulders. “The simplest would be to get a handle on Mr. Yu and his family, making them wary and agreeing to a peaceful split.”

Gu Junzhu asked, “How can we get a handle on Mr. Yu then?”

“Same as I said before!” Ye Xingbei pointed his index finger forward, jabbing Gu Junzhu in the chest. “With determination, there are plenty of ways! One day, if you betray me, I wouldn’t mind showing you the ways I can get you to peacefully break up with me!”

“You?” Gu Junzhu burst out laughing.

The girl before him, although appearing soft and cute like a little fox, insistently attempted to mimic an intimidating demeanor. Her effort was simply too adorable and made Gu Junzhu burst into laughter.

Ye Xingbei was annoyed by his laughter. She punched him in frustration, “What’s so funny? Don’t believe me? Try me and see if I’ve got the tricks to deal with you!”

Suppressing his laughter, Gu Junzhu shook his head. He reached onto the side, took something and placed it on Ye Xingbei’s wrist. Smiling, he said “You don’t have to worry about dealing with me. I’m the Fifth Lord of Gu, so even at my lowest, I wouldn’t bully a little lass like you. You should remember your words and deal with Penny. From what I know, Ye Xingli has been at the Star Palace all these days, and Penny was always with him. When you visit the Star Palace tomorrow, there’s a ninety-nine percent chance that you’ll run into her.”

Ye Xingbei was taken aback, “After all this talking, are you trying to teach me how to deal with Penny?”

Gu Junzhu found her blank look even more adorable. He reached out and gave her a pat on the head, “Like I said, substituting your chocolates isn’t a crime and law can’t do anything. But as you just mentioned, if you are determined and get a handle on her, you can absolutely deal with her!”

Ye Xingbei: “…”

Although the Fifth Lord of Gu’s advice came in a roundabout way, she couldn’t deny that he cared a lot.

She felt warm in her heart.

Since her foster parents passed away and her foster brother disappeared, no one had cared for her so thoroughly.

She looked down at what Gu Junzhu put on her wrist.

It was a gemstone bracelet.

The room only had a wall light on, so the lighting was dim. Yet, the gentle touch of the gemstones and the faint shine they emitted were enough to show that these were not ordinary gemstones.

There are likely not many girls who don’t like gemstones, and Ye Xingbei was no exception.

She caressed each gemstone on the bracelet, asking softly, “What made you think about giving me a gift?”

Gu Junzhu chuckled lightly, “Xiao Shu and Xiao Yue both have it. How could I possibly forget my dear wife?”

He held Ye Xingbei’s hand, guiding her finger to touch an ruby gem. When her fingertip touched the ruby, a clear childish voice immediately blared, “Bai Maomao, Black Maomao, Lu Maomao! Bai Maomao, Black Maomao, Lu Maomao!”

The child’s sweet and soft voice, accompanied by a carefree laughter, played in a loop.

Ye Xingbei initially got a shock but quickly realized that the voice was coming from the bracelet.

She examined the bracelet closely under the wall light and discovered that one of the ruby gemstones had been modified. The voice was indeed coming from the ruby.

Ye Xingbei was surprised, “This is… a mini voice recorder?”

“Right!” Gu Junzhu grabbed her hand, showing her how to record and play back. “This little gadget is most useful for proving one’s innocence and exposing hypocritical people. Keep it with you. When you meet Penny, seize the moment. I’m sure that with your wit, she’ll be reaping the fruits of her own actions in no time!”
