Defrosting The Cold Young Master - Chapter 395

Chapter 395: Chapter 396: Who is Interrupting?

“Is that so?” Gu Junzhu raised an eyebrow at him. “What if the man you think of as your grandfather isn’t actually your true grandfather?”

“How can that be possible?” Ye Xinglan laughed bitterly, “Although my father suffered memory loss for a few years, he has regained his memory now. Surely he can’t fail to recognise his own birth father, can he?”

“Plus, Jiang Huan is the wealthiest man in Jiang City. Despite his reclusiveness, the heads of the top wealthy families in Jiang City are familiar with him, if not Jiang Huan himself. If he was just an ordinary man, maybe you could fake it, but the head of the renowned Jiang Family – how can you impersonate that?” He paused, giving a self-deprecating laugh, “However, it’s true that Jiang Huan showed favoritism towards Jiang Zhengxing and was particularly indifferent to my dad and my uncle. My dad’s health was always poor and Jiang Huan never showed interest in him. When my dad was critically ill and hospitalized, Jiang Huan never once appeared. It was always my uncle who took care of my dad.” “Therefore, when my dad regained his memories and learned of my uncle’s death, that his two sons were adopted by another family, taking the Xie surname, and his daughter too had died young, he was disheartened. He decided unilaterally to cut ties with the Jiang Family, changed his name, and even disowned Jiang Huan.”

“There must be a reason for such an anomaly!” Gu Junzhu lightly tapped the arm of the sofa with his slender index finger, asking casually, “Your father is weak and sick, apart from his good-looking face, he doesn’t have any achievements. Jiang Huan disliking your dad can be understood, but Beibei’s father was a young and promising gentleman, praised by everyone. Why didn’t Jiang Huan like him either? Don’t you think this defies common sense?”

Ye Xinglan twitched at the corner of his mouth.

What does he mean that his dad had nothing but a good face?

Is it really okay to critique his father like this in front of him?

Ye Xingbei was also unhappy, she reached behind Gu Junzhu to give him a fierce pinch and stared at him.

Gu Junzhu looked innocent, “Having a handsome face is an advantage, isn’t it? Take me for example! Ye Xiaobei, be honest, would you ever marry me if I wasn’t good-looking?”

Ye Xingbei:

What could she say?

She didn’t dare to discuss whether or not Fifth Lord of Gu was handsome in front of her brothers.

Never mind whether Fifth Lord of Gu was handsome or not, she knew better than anyone that Fifth Lord of Gu was extremely thick-skinned.

She was really afraid that Fifth Lord of Gu would say something that would make her wish she could crawl into a hole!

So, she narrowed her eyes at Gu Junzhu, her expression threatening: “Stick to the point!”

“OK!” Gu Junzhu formed an ‘OK’ sign with his hand, his smile dazzlingly handsome: “I am a good husband, I listen to my wife, so let’s get back to the point!”

He coughed, then seriously asked: “…I forgot where we left off due to our digression, can anyone remind me?”

Tears welled up in Ye Xingbei’s eyes.

Who was the one digressing?

Fifth Lord of Gu, with your flair for drama, why don’t you just apply to the Central Academy of Drama!

Ye Xinglan was physically and mentally exhausted, he just wanted to wrap up this conversation as quickly as possible and return to his own home to comfort his weary spirit.

He said in an expressionless voice: “Fifth Brother, you were talking about it being odd that Jiang Huan didn’t like my uncle, because my uncle was very excellent and outstanding.”

“Right,” Gu Junzhu nodded, continuing: “I thought it was strange, so I had someone look into Jiang Huan.”

Ye Xinglan involuntarily sat up straighter, his attention retuned and focused harder on Gu Junzhu.
