Defrosting The Cold Young Master - Chapter 2285 - 2289: Terms

She didn’t dare let her mom know where the Jade Pendant came from, so she secretly hid it away.

Once the coast was clear, she sold the Jade Pendant.

Gradually, everyone in that crime organization died in prison.

She felt secretly relieved, believing God was watching over her.

With all those who knew dead, she and her mom were safe.

No one knew what she and her mom had done, they could start over.

After meeting with Zhan Jinchuan again, she didn’t dare let him see her mom.

She feared Zhan Jinchuan would bring up the past with her mom.

If he mentioned the past, her mom would know that Zhan Jinchuan was let go by her and that her dad was indirectly killed by her.

Her mom loved her dad dearly.

If her mom found out that her dad died because of her, she would hate her enormously.

She couldn’t let Zhan Jinchuan meet her mom, in a panic, she lied to Zhan Jinchuan, saying her mom was dead.

She thought that would ensure nothing went wrong.

Their secret would remain unknown forever.

But, she never expected that plans couldn’t outsmart fate.

Despite her efforts and long-hidden secret, Zhan Jinchuan found out in the end.

She remained silent for a long time, her brain frantically working but unable to find a reason to convince Zhan Jinchuan.

With no choice left, she had to admit it.

She looked at Zhan Jinchuan, tears streaming down her eyes: “Brother Chuan, when my parents did those things, I was just a child! I knew their actions were wrong, but I was just a teenage girl, what could I do? If I resisted, I would have died at their hands! I dared not openly defy them, I only dared to secretly let the victims go! Like you…”

With tear-filled eyes, she looked at Zhan Jinchuan with despair and sorrow: “Brother Chuan, please believe me. If I could choose, I would wish for my parents to be good people, wish for a normal yet happy family to grow up in, but I couldn’t choose my own birth…”

“Brother Chuan, my parents indeed did wrong, but what they did was unrelated to me. What I did was save you!”

“Brother Chuan, you must admit, without me, you would have died long ago. I haven’t done anything bad, saving your life is an unarguable fact!”

By the end, she was already in tears.

She looked into Zhan Jinchuan’s eyes and said each word: “Brother Chuan, I am your savior, this is something you cannot deny!”

“Ha!” Zhan Jinchuan turned his head with a laugh, then turned back to look at her: “You didn’t save my life, you just untied the ropes on me. I gave you a Jade Pendant worth millions, what transpired between us was a transaction, settled, with no debts owed!”

“No… no…” Ruan Feifei shook her pale face: “Brother Chuan, you can’t do this to me… Without me, you might have been dead back then…”

“I wouldn’t have died,” Zhan Jinchuan said: “At that time, my men had already searched nearby. Even if you hadn’t untied my ropes, my men would have found me!”

Ruan Feifei froze for a moment and instinctively said: “So you mean… even if I hadn’t let you go, my dad would have died? I… I didn’t kill my dad?”

“If you insist on understanding it that way, it’s not impossible,” Zhan Jinchuan said: “But that’s your matter, unrelated to me. Sitting here in front of you now, I only want to do one thing…”

He looked into Ruan Feifei’s eyes and slowly said: “Sell the properties and shops under your name, and donate the money!”
