Chapter 269: Chapter 270: Consider It as Your Betrothal Gift!

No matter what, her father’s most beloved younger brother, her second uncle, was still alive in this world.

Her two non-blood related brothers suddenly became her biological cousins.

To her, these were all the best news ever. What else did she need to fuss about?

Propped up by her palm, Gu Junzhu looked at the ceiling and asked nonchalantly, “Ye Xiaobei, don’t you plan to confront Ye Xinglan and Ye Xingli? Burst into their presence, bang the table, and shout, ‘Ye Xinglan, Ye Xingli, I know! You are my biological cousins! Your father is my biological uncle!’ That should give them a jolt, right?”

Ye Xingbei rolled her eyes, “I’m not as dramatic as you! If Brother Lan and Brother Li don’t wish to acknowledge me, they must have their reasons, I won’t ruin their plans!”

“For me, it doesn’t make a difference. Acknowledged or not, they are my brothers, it has no impact on me whatsoever.”

What it would impact is either Shi Qianling or Leng Peini.

When the truth comes out, whoever switched her chocolate will likely regret it enough to jump off a building!

“Alright then.” Fifth Lord of Gu sounded regretful.

He missed a great drama of Ye Xingbei tormenting the President of Star Palace, Ye Xinglan!

He really wanted to see what Ye Xinglan would look like, bending on his knees, begging his wife for mercy.

“Hey!” Ye Xingbei turned to look at him, “Fifth Lord of Gu, instead of acting this way, why don’t you find stuff that’s actually useful?”

“Didn’t you say that both you and my brother suspect that my parents were killed by Jiang Zhengxing? It’s only because you’ve been unable to find concrete evidence that you haven’t been able to bring Jiang Zhengxing to justice yet, right?”

“If that’s true, then you better hurry up and find the evidence. Send Jiang Zhengxing to prison, that’s the important thing! The real identities of Brother Lan and Brother Li aren’t that crucial, understand?”

“Sure!” Gu Junzhu grabbed her chin, his gaze flickering like waves in autumn, “Darling, what’s in it for me if I manage to find the evidence that Jiang Zhengxing killed your father and manage to put him in jail?”

Ye Xingbei batted his hand away, snorting at him, “Didn’t you always say that you’re the world’s biggest good guy? So, the world’s biggest good guy, wants benefits for helping his own wife?”

Help his own wife?

Gu Junzhu’s eyebrows raised slightly, obviously pleased by these words, instantly filling him with motivation.

He grabbed Ye Xingbei’s chin tightly, “Ye Xiaobei, wait and see. I will definitely help you find evidence that Jiang Zhengxing killed your parents, send him to prison, and avenge your parents myself. Consider it as my bride price to you!”

In the moonlight, his voice was pleasing like hypnotizing music, like intimate whispers in the night, and like solemn vows, hitting Ye Xingbei’s heart with each word.

Ye Xingbei’s heart skipped a beat. She felt a bit uncomfortable and turned around, murmuring, “You better hurry up then! I believe my four brothers are trying to find the evidence from the past. If they find it before you do, you’ll lose!”

As soon as the words left her mouth, a wave of strange feelings washed over Ye Xingbei’s heart.

Four brothers?

From today onward, she would be the sister of four blood-related brothers.

In the past, Ye Xingli would always enjoy putting his arm around her shoulders.

She was enjoying this brotherly love and companionship, while also worried about misunderstandings from others.

In future, she could indulge in this intimacy and care without worrying about gossips and rumours.

Because he was her blood-related cousin, the closest person to her, second only to her parents and elder brothers.
