Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 411 - 412: Laughing to Death

Chapter 411: Chapter 412: Laughing to Death

She shut her eyes in fear.

In the blink of an eye, she was pulled into a warm embrace.

In a daze, she opened her eyes. Looking up, she saw Gu Junzhu’s worried gaze on her.

Her mind was racing.

Gu Junzhu had shielded her with his body, so wouldn’t that mean the stuff that Leng Peini had thrown had hit his back instead?

That thought zoomed into her mind, and she broke out into a cold sweat. She quickly pushed him away, rushed around behind him, and inspected his back. “How can you be so foolish? What did she throw at you?”

Despite her questioning, the only thought that registered in Ye Xingbei’s mind was: sulfuric acid!

A few days ago, she had read a news report about an incident that had taken place in Jiang City.

A man and a woman broke up. The man wanted to reconcile, but the woman refused. Enraged, the man hunted down the woman bearing a bottle of sulfuric acid, which he promptly flung onto her body.

Ye Xingbei was terrified, her face pale and shaking all over.

Just imagining the agony of having sulfuric acid on one’s back was unbearable.

But when she rushed behind Gu Junzhu, she found that his back was clean and dry.

Leng Peini, however, was rolling on the floor clutching her wrist in pain.

Xiao Chi was standing next to her, grinning. “Young Madam, don’t worry. As long as I’m here, the Young Master won’t be harmed!”

As the liquid was splashing towards Ye Xingbei, Gu Junzhu turned and shielded her in his arms.

At the same time, Xiao Chi charged forward, kicked the bottle from Peini’s hand, and blocked it from reaching Gu Junzhu.

Half of the liquid from the bottle had splashed onto Xiao Chi, but not a lot.

Seeing that he was wet, Ye Xingbei hurriedly asked, “What was in the bottle, Xiao Chi? Are you okay?”

It wasn’t sulfuric acid, was it?

Why did Xiao Chi seem to be grinning and not worried at all?

Xiao Chi kicked Leng Peini and looked at her disdainfully. “The bottle was originally filled with sulfuric acid, but someone swamped it out. Young Madam, don’t worry. The bottle was filled with ordinary water; there are no harmful substances and no need to worry.”

Leng Peini, who had been kicked to the floor, turned her face towards him in disbelief. “How is this possible? It was sulfuric acid! How did it turn into water? You…you…!”

Angry and in pain, she couldn’t finish her sentence.

Xiao Chi kindly cleared her confusion. “Our Young Master knew you would seek revenge and had someone tail you. When you went out in disguise to buy sulfuric acid, our person followed you. The moment you bought the sulfuric acid, it was swapped out.”

Xiao Chi chuckled and kicked her dismissively. “With your intelligence, you dare to hurt people? It’s absolutely hilarious!” free𝑤ebnovel.com

“Why? Why?” Leng Peini trembled with anger and humiliation. “You knew I was going to buy sulfuric acid, why didn’t you stop me? Why let me make a fool of myself…”

Thinking about how she had thought she held a weapon capable of destroying Ye Xingli, when in reality it was only water, and how she had dramatically splashed it onto Ye Xingli made her wish she could vanish.

She was like a ridiculous clown prancing before them when they had seen through her all along.

“Why would we stop you?” Xiao Chi replied matter-of-factly. “If you attempt to harm someone, you can be charged with intentional injury and be put in jail. If we stop you before you act, won’t it be letting you off the hook?”

Leng Peini was so enraged that she almost fainted. “You…you’re all so vicious!”

Xiao Chi burst into laughter. “Haha! How ridiculous! A vile woman who wants to hurt others with sulfuric acid accuses somebody else of being malicious. Haha! Isn’t that hilarious?”
