Defrosting The Cold Young Master

Chapter 468: Chapter 469: Cousin, actually you are a great person!

Definitely, there’s something wrong with the wine in this club. He’d only had two drinks and he’d already traveled through a parallel time-space continuum!

He looked up and down, planning to find some sort of mechanism or something that could help him travel back to his original timeline.

Gu Junzhu bent over and scooped Little Shumiao into his arms, pointing at Qiao Zui, “Little Shumiao, his name’s Qiao Zui, your cousin. Do you know what a cousin is?”

Little Shumiao wrapped her arms around his neck, blinking her eyes, “A cousin is the child of either my parents’ siblings.”

“Yes, that’s the official explanation,” Gu Junzhu chuckled, rubbing her little head, “but in private circumstances, a cousin is someone you can bully and ridicule at will, and they are always ready to carry burdens and work hard for you.”

Qiao Zui: “…!”

Do you really think it’s good to teach your son this way, uncle?

Do you really, really think it’s okay to set your own nephew up like this?!

“Oh,” Little Shumiao nodded understandingly, “Okay, Daddy. I get it.”

Qiao Zui: “…”

No!

You got it all wrong!

A tiny figure inside him crying a river reached out to Little Shumiao with a pleading gesture. Little one, don’t be fooled by your dad. What your dad says is not right.

Not a single word of it is!

“Good girl!” Gu Junzhu adoringly kissed the rosy cheeks of Little Shumiao, “Remember, if you have any troubles and can’t find your mom and dad, you look for your cousin. If you need someone to take the heat, don’t look for your mom and dad, look for your cousin directly.”

“Mmhm,” Little Shumiao nodded, “Okay, Daddy, I got it!”

She cocked her little head to look at Qiao Zui and sincerely said, “Cousin, I misunderstood you just now. You’re not ugly-hearted at all. You’re just a little dim. But in fact, you’re a very good person!”

A person who’s willing to take the blame for her, – what a great person he is!

Qiao Zui: “…”

No, no, no!

He’s of sound mind, his heart is not that ugly… Dammit!

His mind is sharp, his heart is not ugly, but he doesn’t want to be that good person at all!

In despair, Qiao Zui had tears streaming down his face as he scratched at the wall.

That’s why he kept delaying and hesitating to go stay at his uncle’s house.

He used to be called the “wise strategist”, whose intelligence surpassed everyone else’s.

But every time he’s in front of his uncle, all he gets is abuse.

He refused to admit it was because he was less intelligent than his uncle that he always got abused. Instead, he believed it was simply because his uncle was his elder.

Respecting the elders and loving the young is a fine tradition.

Disobeying his uncle would mean being unfilial. What could he do?

What could he do??

When his grandfather forcefully ordered him to move into his uncle’s house to heal from his injuries, he felt devastated.

The despair was even worse than learning that his injured arm couldn’t be healed, meaning he had to retire early from the military.

He thought his grandfather was even more ruthless than an enemy.

While the enemy only wanted his life, his grandfather was torturing his soul!

Ye Xingbei looked at Gu Junzhu who was holding Little Shumiao affectionately, then at Qiao Zui who was stewing in silence and scratching the wall, and couldn’t help but pity him.

This kid really didn’t know what’s good for him.

If he wanted to fool someone, why did he choose Fifth Lord of Gu?

In terms of trickery, who could top Fifth Lord of Gu?

Insisting on showing off his broadsword skills in front of Guan Gong, wasn’t that just asking for abuse?

Just as she was about to say something, the door to the adjacent room suddenly opened.

A tall, handsome young man with star-like eyes came out. He briefly looked surprised at the scene in the corridor, then his gaze landed on Qiao Zui’s face, “Ah Zui?”
