Defrosting The Cold Young Master Chapter 2301 - 2305: The Best Man

Ye Xingbei stood up to help Bohe and the two cooks set up the night snack. She picked a few things that Ye Xingli liked and put them back on the tray, then said to Wan Chong, "You two talk, I’m going to deliver a night snack to my brother."

Wan Chong stood up and said very politely, "Sister-in-law, be careful, don’t burn yourself."

Ye Xingbei: "...Okay, thanks."

Such a thoughtful comrade.

But sohow, whenever he’s with Gu Junzhu, it feels kind of weird.

It must be because of their Fifth Lord of Gu.

After all, their Fifth Lord of Gu is highly toxic!

Ye Xingbei carried the tray to Ye Xingli’s guest room.

Ye Xingli took the tray, put it on the coffee table, couldn’t wait to take a bite, and then kept praising it.

Without Gu Junzhu, the chatterbox Second Young Master Ye finally had his chance to shine. He chatted endlessly with Ye Xingbei for more than an hour before letting her go.

By the ti Ye Xingbei returned to the living room, Wan Chong was already gone.

Ye Xingbei sat down next to Gu Junzhu, "Where’s Wan Chong?"

"He went to look for Ah Zui and Ah Yao," Gu Junzhu said. "He’s staying over there tonight."

He reached out and put his arm around Ye Xingbei’s shoulder, "When we move over to the coffee shop, rember to leave him a room next to Ah Zui and Ah Yao’s rooms."

Ye Xingbei nodded, "Okay."

Gu Junzhu didn’t say it outright, but Ye Xingbei already understood.

Leaving Wan Chong a room next to Qiao Zui and Fang Yao’s ans that Wan Chong isn’t here to be their bodyguard, not a servant, but part of their family.

She asked Gu Junzhu, "Does Wan Chong know Ah Zui and Ah Yao?"

Gu Junzhu nodded, "Of course."

She asked curiously, "Between the three of them, who’s the best?"

"As of now, Ah Chong is definitely the best," Gu Junzhu said, "After all, Ah Chong is uninjured."

Fang Yao and Qiao Zui both retired because of injuries.

Although their condition improved after therapy, it’s still incomparable to when they were uninjured.

Ye Xingbei was very interested, "And what about before? Who was the best and who was the weakest among the three?"

"Each excelled in different ways," Gu Junzhu said, "None of them as good as ."

Ye Xingbei: "...Oh yes, sure, you’re the boss, who’s better than you? You’re not just Wan Chong’s Fifth Brother, you’re also Qiao Zui and Fang Yao’s uncle. It’s a generational gap, the kind where if you ask them to kneel, they wouldn’t dare stand. You’re the best!"

Gu Junzhu looked down at her, "Why does it sound like you’re mocking ?"

Ye Xingbei forced a grin, a smile that didn’t reach her eyes, "Do you even need to think about it? I’m definitely mocking you!"

"Sigh," Fifth Lord Gu sighed, "Ye Xiaobei, you’re too an. Compared to those three, I really am the best. I’m just being honest, why mock ?"

Ye Xingbei: "..."

Fair point.

Fifth Lord Gu wasn’t lying, so why should she mock him?

Hmm.

She figured it out!

She poked Gu Junzhu in the chest, "That’s because you love to boast so much, so even when you’re telling the truth, I feel like you’re boasting!... Besides, I’ve never seen you fight with the three of them, how do I know if you’re really telling the truth? Maybe you’re bragging? Loving to brag is a common flaw among n! They think they look super cool when bragging, but it’s actually super shallow and super annoying!"

Gu Junzhu raised an eyebrow at her, "Do I love to brag?"

Ye Xingbei: "...Alright, you don’t."

Fifth Lord Gu never brags.
