DEFROSTING THE COLD YOUNG MASTER

Chapter 800: Chapter 804 She Can’t Escape

“There wasn’t before, but now there is,” Gu Junzhu said hoarsely, “Fang Lutong is planning to give the entire Fang Family to Fang Yao. If Fang Lutong really does that, Fang Yixian and Fang Mingzhu will be left with nothing.”

His voice was filled with sorrow and bitterness.

At this moment, the only thought that ran through his mind was: if he hadn’t helped Fang Yao fight for the inheritance of the Fang Family, would Qiao Yi still be alive?

It was him… he was the one who caused Qiao Yi’s death…

Ye Xingbei noticed something and furrowed her brows even tighter.

She stared at Gu Junzhu for a while, then suddenly raised her hand to cup his face, looking intently into his eyes she asked, “Gu Junzhu, tell me, are you blaming yourself? Do you feel that you didn’t protect Qiao Yi well enough, or do you think that if you hadn’t gotten involved in the Fang Family’s affairs, Fang Yao’s identity wouldn’t have been exposed, he wouldn’t have received the Fang Family inheritance, and Qiao Yi wouldn’t have died because of that?”

Gu Junzhu raised his hand and held hers, taking it from his face to hold in the palm of his hand, remaining silent.

“Gu Junzhu, don’t think like that. Thinking this way will disappoint me,” Ye Xingbei said earnestly, looking at him, “Only the weak take all responsibilities upon themselves when things happen. You’re a strong person, you shouldn’t do that.”

Gu Junzhu looked at her, still without saying a word.

Ye Xingbei gripped his hand firmly, gazing straight into the depths of his eyes, “Gu Junzhu, don’t think too highly of yourself. You’re human, not a god. You’re just a slightly smarter average person. You don’t have the ability to predict the future or carry the fate and life or death of others.”

Gu Junzhu looked at her, his gaze profound.

Ye Xingbei pursed the corners of her lips, “If the one who hired the hitman was Fang Mingzhu, that means Fang Mingzhu is twisted and malicious. Xiao Qiao likes Mi Sheng and wouldn’t accept Fang Mingzhu. With her twisted, malicious nature, she would still kill someone. If that were the case, the sniper would still appear, and the target would be Xiao Qiao. Qiao Yi, in order to protect her brother, might still die…”

Finally, Gu Junzhu spoke faintly, “The second shot was aimed at Mi Sheng. Qiao Yi threw herself at Qiao Zui, incidentally blocking it right in front of Mi Sheng…”

“Okay,” Ye Xingbei nodded and said, “If you hadn’t exposed the Fang Family’s affairs and kept Fang Yao out of this grudge, then the person Fang Mingzhu hired to kill would be Mi Sheng today. Qiao Zui would definitely save Mi Sheng. He would still be hit in the shoulder. Qiao Yi, caring for her brother, would still throw herself at Qiao Zui. She would still die…”

Gu Junzhu shook his head and gave a bitter smile, “These are all hypotheticals…”

Ye Xingbei said, “What you’ve been thinking in your heart, that if it wasn’t for you exposing the Fang Family’s conspiracy, Qiao Yi might not have died, it’s also hypothetical. Even without the things you did, Qiao Yi might have still died.”

Gu Junzhu let out a deep breath and lifted a hand to caress her head, “Don’t worry, I’m okay.”

Even if regrets, self-blame, remorse, and the pain of not being able to save Qiao Yi in time weighed heavy on his heart, he was still Gu Junzhu.

He still had his duties and responsibilities to carry on.

He wouldn’t indulge in self-pity or fall into despair.

Seeing the light return to his eyes, no longer looking as lifeless as before, Ye Xingbei breathed a sigh of relief and changed the subject, “If the second shot was meant for Mi Sheng, then I’m convinced that Fang Mingzhu is the one who hired the hitman. I just wonder how a rich young lady managed to get in touch with a sniper.”

Gu Junzhu replied indifferently, “We’ll find out if we look into it. If she’s done it, she’ll leave a trail. She can’t escape.”
