Defrosting The Cold Young Master - Chapter 387 - 388 Let’s Breakup
Chapter 387: Chapter 388 Let’s Breakup
Penny’s mind was in a chaotic state, at a loss for an appropriate explanation. She stuttered, unable to form a coherent sentence.
Ye Xingli looked at her, his gaze growing colder and more disappointed.
In the end, he let out a soft sigh and said indifferently, “Penny, let’s break up.” “No!” Penny screamed out reflexively, her face pale as death. She grabbed Ye Xingli’s arm, her eyes pleading, her body shivering, “Ah Li, don’t break up with me, please, don’t break up with me! I love you, everything I did was for you, Ah Li. I don’t want to break up! I don’t want to break up! I can lose everything, but I cannot lose you, Ah Li…”
She cried till her face was drenched with tears, her expression was one of disarray, it was as if she was witnessing the end of the world. Thê sourc𝗲 of this conte/nt n/o/v/(𝒆l)bi((n))
Ye Xingli looked at her, a complicated mix of pain and confusion, “You persistently claim that you love me, but do you understand the idiom ‘Love me, love my dog’? Beibei is my sister, if you love me, why didn’t you help care for her, protect her, and instead swapped the chocolate that eventually saved her life, intending to leave her to die?”
“No…I didn’t…I didn’t…” Penny desperately shook her head, “It’s a lie! I didn’t swap her chocolate, I didn’t!”
Junzhu, who had remained silent till now, suddenly cocked an amused smile, “Xiao Chi.”
Gu Chi, who had been standing by the doorway awaiting orders, acknowledged the command and walked over. He distributed the documents in his hand equally among Ye Xinglan, Ye Xingli, and Penny: “These are the orders and screenshots of the money transfer records for when Miss Leng had the sugar-free chocolates custom-made at the Candy Wish Workshop in Feng City, additionally we also have Miss Leng’s plane ticket to Feng City, photos of her in disguise and receipts for the clothes and wig she purchased online for the disguise.”
The evidence was conclusive.
Penny’s face paled, and she felt as if she was plunged into an icy abyss.
When she had switched Ye Xingbei’s chocolate, she did it discreetly, thinking no one would ever find out the truth.
She thought, even if somehow the truth did come to light, she wouldn’t be legally responsible.
All she did was replace a sugared chocolate with a sugar-free one.
She didn’t steal, nor did she forcefully take it, even if Ye Xingbei died of hypoglycemic attack, she wouldn’t have to bear any legal responsibility.
Back then, she convinced herself with that thought, thinking of causing Ye Xingbei to vanish from this world without breaking a single law, and foolishly did it.
What she forgot to think was that even though the law might not punish her, Ye Xingli certainly would.
Even if he did nothing but break up with her, she wouldn’t be able to bear it.
Before, she had nightmares of Ye Xingli breaking up with her.
Now, the nightmare came true.
Her heart felt as if it was torn to shreds, she was in unbearable pain.
She flung herself at him, clung to Ye Xingli’s arm and wailed, “Ah Li, I beg you! Don’t break up with me, please! I love you! Everything I did, was because I love you too much!”
“You’re always nicer to Ye Xingbei than to me. She’s more beautiful than me, she’s more talented, she’s been with you longer, I was always scared. Scared that one day, you’ll realize that you loved her, not me.”
“Every day, I’m tormented by the fear that you have feelings for someone else, every day I’m in pain… I’m so scared… too scared…”
Because of the intense fear she was experiencing, she didn’t know where the thought of making Ye Xingbei disappear from the world had come from..
