Defrosting The Cold Young Master

Chapter 475: Chapter 476: We Need to Find Something for Him to Do!

Due to his reverence for heroes, Ye Xingbei didn’t feel any significant impact when two new people joined their household.

However, for Xiao Shumiao, the arrival of a mischievous cousin, who often caused him to squeal with laughter, was an addition they quickly adapted to, forming a swift connection with Qiao Zui.

A few days later, Lingyue’s injuries were fully healed, and he could now attend school.

Senior Master Xiang had lingered in Jiang City for more than two weeks – his limit – and now needed to return to Beijing.

Before leaving, he and Gu Junzhu arranged that he would first return to Beijing and make the necessary preparations.

Once all obstacles were cleared for Lingyue, Gu Junzhu was to bring him to Beijing, add Lingyue’s name to their family tree, and host a banquet for all the friends and family of the Xiang Family, officially announcing Lingyue’s identity.

Gu Junzhu gladly agreed.

Before leaving, Senior Master Xiang clung to Lingyue, reluctant to part from him.

Perhaps age had softened his heart, as he found himself totally unrestrained in his affection towards Lingyue, a grown-up child.

Or, maybe it was because Lingyue’s eyes were strikingly reminiscent of his late wife, so that seeing Lingyue would inevitably stir up countless emotions, unspoken guilt and a fervent desire to show him ever greater kindness, to love him more and more without ever feeling the love was enough.

He had never cared for anyone like he cared for Lingyue in his entire life.

He almost regretted his decision and wanted to take Lingyue with him.

But in the end, he held back.

He realized long ago that Lingyue preferred to stay with Gu Junzhu.

He had never voiced this out, afraid that it would upset Lingyue.

As Lingyue’s benefactor, he had to respect Lingyue’s opinions and follow Lingyue’s wishes.

Wherever Lingyue wished to be, he should stay there.

However, he would take care of everything relating to the Xiang Family for Lingyue.

As soon as he cleared all the obstacles and made necessary arrangements for Lingyue, Lingyue could return to Beijing to officially assume his role as one of Beijing’s high-society heirs.

Imagining himself, hand in hand with Lingyue, standing at the top of the high stairway, proudly announcing to an audience of distinguished guests that Lingyue was his grandson, he couldn’t help but break into a teary smile.

He gave Lingyue one last heavy embrace and tousled Lingyue’s hair before stepping onto the plane.

Lingyue chased after him for a few steps before Xiao Shumiao grabbed his hand.

Looking at him anxiously, Xiao Shumiao asked, “Brother Xiaoyue?”

Ever since Senior Master Xiang’s arrival, Xiao Shumiao had been closely watching, afraid that Senior Master Xiang might take his Brother Xiaoyue away.

Lingyue glanced at Xiao Shumiao and gave him a reassuring smile.

With one hand holding Xiao Shumiao’s hand tightly, he raised his other hand to wave energetically at Senior Master Xiang.

He intended to grow up quickly.

The world is small, airplanes are fast. When he grows up, he can fly between his grandfather and Xiao Shumiao, accompanying every person that he wishes to be with.

After Senior Master Xiang left, Lingyue and Xiao Shumiao broke their vacation, and returned to school.

Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei also began to dedicate more energy to their work, and life got back on track.

Qiao Zui and Fang Yao came to Jiang City to recuperate.

Qiao Zui was fine, he was a go-with-the-flow kind of person, with his own faith and natural insouciance.

On the other hand, Fang Yao was having a harder time.

He was a fiercely determined individual, who had always seen protecting his family and his country as his lifelong mission.

Having suddenly left the place where he had battled for so long, Fang Yao sank into a prolonged gloom, though he never said a word about it. Qiao Zui could tell that he grew more sullen and withdrawn, fell quieter, and his mood worsened.

Qiao Zui recognized that this wasn’t a good trend.

People’s lives are sustained by their spirit and vitality.

Mood directly affects the body.

If Fang Yao continues to be downhearted everyday, it would be easy for his body to deteriorate – made worse by his existing injuries.

Qiao Zui realized he needed to find something for Fang Yao to do!
