Defrosting The Cold Young Master - Chapter 402 - Chapter 402: Chapter 403:1 May Have Already Fallen in Love with You

Chapter 402: Chapter 403:1 May Have Already Fallen in Love with You

She fell silent for a while before saying: “Of course, I wouldn’t make you a cuckold. Even though we’re just living together, we have already obtained a marriage license. Our marriage is recognized and protected by the law. As long as we are legally married, I assure that I will be loyal to our marriage. I definitely won’t make you a cuckold. However, the law can’t represent feelings. You said you are my husband, meaning you should be a man whom I deeply love, but what about me? Yes, I am your legal wife, but am I the woman whom you deeply love?”

“Yes, you are!” Gu Junzhu didn’t even hesitate, “You are my wife, of course, you are the woman whom I deeply love!”

Ye Xingbei was speechless.

After a long pause, she waved her hand, “Wait a moment…I’m a little dizzy.”

Does this person even know what “love” means?

He said it so easily!

Could it be that the capable Fifth Lord of Gu is an emotional fool who can’t differentiate between responsibility and love?

Ye Xingbei took a while to collect her thoughts. Then, turning to look Gu Junzhu in the eyes, she seriously asked, “Gu Junzhu, do you love me?”

Gu Junzhu froze.

Ye Xingbei continued, “I want to be honest with you, I don’t love you! I am a very normal girl, of course, I look forward to a wedding, but I can’t have a wedding with a man I don’t love, because during a wedding vows of love are solemnly promised in front of all guests; saying that ‘I love you’ to the groom, vowing to never leave or forsake him, regardless of wealth or poverty, health or sickness. Can we do that?”

Gu Junzhu rubbed his fingers, deep in thought.

Seeing his silence, Ye Xingbei tilted her head and looked at him, her expression was a bit mischievous, “Of course, we might have a wedding too, but the prerequisite is that you can say ‘I love you’ to me and that I can also say ‘I love you’ to you, so…do you love me?”

Gu Junzhu looked at her intently.

Did he love her?

He didn’t know.

He joined the national service at seventeen; he was surrounded by tough guys and couldn’t even see a woman, let alone have a chance to fall in love.

He served the country for six years and retired at the age of twenty-three because of injuries. He took over the company his older brother left and successfully expanded it.

Half-dead with an unhealed injury, he didn’t have the emotional energy to fall in love.

It wasn’t until his father schemed and cooked his goose with Ye Xingbei that he was close to a woman.

So, did he love Ye Xingbei?

If the woman his father had thrown into his bed that day wasn’t Ye Xingbei, but another woman, would he—as he was that day—be living with her, perhaps even contemplating getting married with her?

He didn’t know.

No matter how clever he was, he had no way of finding the answer to a situational problem that did not occur.

He was certain that he liked Ye Xingbei.

Being with Ye Xingbei, he felt comfortable and happy.

He wanted to protect Ye Xingbei, to cheer her up, to take responsibility for her, to shield her from wind and rain, and to fulfill her wishes.

So, were these feelings the same as love?

Looking at Ye Xingbei, he, who had been wise for over twenty years, was feeling a bit confused for the first time.

Seeing the usually domineering and dauntless Fifth Lord of Gu displaying a hint of confusion, Ye Xingbei found him somewhat adorable and cute.

She couldn’t help but laugh, “Actually, it’s okay, the present doesn’t represent the future. I am so beautiful and cute, likable, maybe you’ll really fall in love with me in the future?”

“You stole my lines!” The Fifth Lord of Gu finally got his voice back, “I am so handsome and suave, wise and insightful, you will definitely fall in love with me in the future!”

Ye Xingbei burst into laughter.

Seeing her beaming smile, Gu Junzhu’s heart skipped a beat.

Looking at her incomparably radiant face, he suddenly said, “Ye Xiaobei, I feel like I might have fallen in love with you now.”
