Defrosting The Cold Young Master

Chapter 737: Chapter 741 A Whole Bottle

Looking at the gradually swelling slap print on Qiao Zui’s face, Mi Sheng’s emotions suddenly collapsed.

She grabbed Qiao Zui’s hand, large tears slid out of her eyes as she violently shook her head, “No, no, no! It’s not your fault, it’s mine! I’m sorry, I’m not worthy of you, forget about me!”

She suddenly pushed Qiao Zui away and stormed out of the room.

Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei were talking with Situ Jinse in the living room. Upon hearing the footsteps, they looked up and saw Mi Sheng running down from upstairs, tears streaking down her face.

Situ Jinse stood up in surprise, “Xiao Mi, what’s wrong?”

Mi Sheng paused, bowed to Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei, “I’m sorry, I have things to do. I must leave now. I’ve disturbed you!”

Before Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei could respond, she straightened up and ran towards the door.

“Xiao Mi, what happened?” Situ Jinse hastily said to Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei, “I’m sorry, Uncle and Aunt, I need to go check on Xiao Mi!”

She hurriedly followed after Mi Sheng.

Qiao Zui also ran down from upstairs, chasing after Mi Sheng.

Ye Xingbei, looking bewildered, turned to Gu Junzhu, “What happened? Weren’t they both fine yesterday?”

Gu Junzhu shook his head, took out his phone, and called Gu Chi, “Keep an eye on Xiao Qiao.”

Gu Chi immediately agreed.

Qiao Zui caught up with Mi Sheng, grabbing her arm, desperately seeking answers.

He wanted to know what he had done wrong. Why everything was fine one moment, and with just a shower, everything suddenly changed.

Mi Sheng shook her head as she wept, repeatedly apologizing.

Apart from these three words, she dared not say anything else to Qiao Zui.

What was she supposed to tell Qiao Zui?

How could she say “I’m sorry, your parents were killed by my father. I am the daughter of your parent’s murderer. We share a deeply ingrained, irreconcilable feud.”

She couldn’t say it.

Qiao Zui and she were different.

She had grown up not knowing who her biological father was and didn’t even know his name. She didn’t feel any attachment to her biological father at all.

But Qiao Zui was different.

Just by looking at Qiao Zui’s expression when he mentioned his parents, she knew Qiao Zui loved them.

Very, very much.

If Qiao Zui found out that he had fallen in love with the daughter of his parents’ murderer, can he withstand it?

No.

She couldn’t tell him.

She couldn’t let Qiao Zui know that he had just slept with the daughter of his parents’ murderer.

And more than that, she didn’t want Qiao Zui to find out that she was the daughter of his parents’ murderer and then hate and despise her.

She would rather Qiao Zui not know anything.

Seeing Mi Sheng’s voice had turned hoarse from crying, and she was on the verge of breaking down, Situ Jinse forcefully pried Qiao Zui’s grip from Mi Sheng’s hand, positioning herself to shield Mi Sheng. She said to Qiao Zui, “Instructor Qiao, I don’t know what happened between you and Xiao Mi. But both of you are too emotional now to have a proper conversation. I’ll take Xiao Mi away for now. Can we wait until both of you have calmed down before talking?”

Looking at Mi Sheng, who was shaking and sobbing with her head lowered and hands covering her mouth, Qiao Zui gradually calmed down.

He raised his hands, took a few steps back, and nodded, “Alright, you guys should find a place to stay. We can talk once Xiao Mi has calmed down.”

Situ Jinse took Mi Sheng’s hand and left.

Gu Chi, who had followed after Qiao Zui, signaled two bodyguards to follow after Mi Sheng and Situ Jinse.

Qiao Zui stood there, stunned, watching the retreating figures of Mi Sheng and Situ Jinse disappear from his sight. Only then did he turn around and return to the villa.

Walking into the living room, he headed straight for the liquor cabinet.

He opened a bottle of brandy and downed it in one go.
