Defrosting The Cold Young Master
Chapter 1000 - 1000 1004 Is it a Substitute

Chapter 1000: Chapter 1004: Is it a Substitute? Chapter 1000: Chapter 1004: Is it a Substitute? Li Qi watched her retreating figure and sneered.

Xie Motong’s latest behavior did somewhat resemble that of a wealthy young lady.

Unfortunately, she had been kneeling at his feet for too long, and even though she now stood up straight, the most profound image remaining in his mind was still of her kneeling on the ground, serving him with her mouth.

He was not a fool; he knew what Xie Motong wanted by staying by his side.

No one is born wanting to kneel and serve others.

When Xie Motong followed him, it wasn’t because she was desperately out of options, only by following him did she have a way to survive.

After all, as the Xie’s Grand Daughter, although Senior Master Xie detested her cruelty and had severed ties with her, he did not completely destroy her, leaving her a way out. He not only provided her and her mother a fixed monthly allowance but also secretly arranged for someone to protect her, fearing she might be bullied.

Leaving the Xie Family, Xie Motong’s life wasn’t as prestigious as when she was with the Xie Family, but it wasn’t unbearable either.

Yet, even so, she was still willing to come back to him, kneel daily to serve him, and endure all his manipulative ways.

Xie Motong wanted, of course, to not be his plaything for life.

Li Qi knew that Xie Motong wanted to be the Seventh Young Madam of the Li family.

She wanted to turn her fate around through him.

But he didn’t care.

If a person doesn’t have a bit of foolish fantasy, then they’re not human.

Xie Motong could have her dreams; he was only responsible for shattering them.

Even though he had reunited with Ye Xingbei, he hadn’t thought about letting Xie Motong leave.

After all, Xie Motong was tactful and intelligent. No matter how he tormented her, Xie Motong would always energetically comply, never resist, and served him very comfortably.

Moreover, Xie Motong came from a distinguished family and was still a virgin when she followed him, very clean. After being with him, she had no entanglements with other men. Such a woman was hard to find.

But today, his grandfather returned from the Xiang Family, called him over, and said he had seen Ye Xingbei, then asked him if he was keeping Xie Motong by his side as a substitute for Ye Xingbei.

He was surprised and asked his grandfather why he thought so.

His grandfather said it was because Xie Motong and Ye Xingbei looked somewhat alike.

Being actual cousins, although it was clear that Ye Xingbei was more beautiful, Xie Motong’s face shape and eyes bore some resemblance to Ye Xingbei.

Hearing his grandfather’s question, he quickly explained that he took in Xie Motong on a whim, feeling lonely, and it was nice to have a woman by his side, which had nothing to do with Ye Xingbei.

His grandfather then solemnly advised him to think it over carefully. If he didn’t want Ye Xingbei to misunderstand anything, it was best to split from Xie Motong.

He understood his grandfather’s words.

Since his grandfather mistook him for using Xie Motong as Ye Xingbei’s substitute, Ye Xingbei could hardly avoid misunderstanding as well.

If Ye Xingbei misunderstood, how would Ye Xingbei view him?

Let alone becoming friends with Ye Xingbei in the future, it would be good enough if Ye Xingbei didn’t see him as an enemy.

If he really viewed Xie Motong as Ye Xingbei’s substitute, given his feelings for Ye Xingbei, he should have treated Xie Motong with utmost adoration.

But in fact, Xie Motong fared worse than a chicken by his side. If he really treated Xie Motong as a substitute for Ye Xingbei, how deep must his hatred for Ye Xingbei be to treat Xie Motong that way?

Furthermore, Ye Xingbei was now married.

If Ye Xingbei misunderstood, thinking he harbored inappropriate thoughts towards her, how could he continue being friends with Ye Xingbei in the future?
