Defrosting The Cold Young Master

Chapter 1109: Chapter 1113 Exposed

He glanced at Han Zuo, “You did that performance on purpose for him to see!”

“I didn’t… I didn’t…” The woman kept backing away, tears falling like pearls from her eyes, her delicate neck swinging back and forth, tears clinging to her long eyelashes, as beautiful as pear blossoms in the rain, pity-inducing in my sight.

“If denial were useful,” Gu Junzhu said leisurely, “then a criminal in a courtroom would just have to say ‘I didn’t commit the crime,’ and they would all be acquitted.”

Gu Junzhu scoffed, “Of course, you can’t foresee the future; you had simply rehearsed with that man beforehand, knowing exactly which line he would say before he was going to hit you. As soon as he finished that line, you knew he was about to strike and you subconsciously performed a self-protective dodge.”

“No… I didn’t… I really didn’t…” the woman desperately shook her head, “I swear, I don’t know that man who just slapped me… I swear…”

“So if a criminal in the courtroom says ‘I swear I didn’t commit the crime,’ can the judge just declare him not guilty?” Gu Junzhu watched her lazily, “Empty words are useless, let me guess who you might be… Although I was ahead of you, when you fell, your eyes were directed towards Han Zuo’s direction, just a fleeting glance, but I’m certain I saw it right…”

Gu Junzhu, with his arms crossed, analyzed with interest, “There’s been such a commotion here, yet no one from the private room came out to check, which means there were only you and that man in the room. This is a high-end western restaurant, with a minimum spend of ten thousand in the private rooms. Yet the man, from top to bottom, didn’t even have a thousand yuan worth of clothes on him. Would someone whose total worth isn’t even ten thousand yuan book a private room just for himself?”

Gu Junzhu chuckled, “Yian Jingxue was the first to help you, yet you bypassed Yian Jingxue to thank Han Zuo. It shows that the true aim of your act was Han Zuo. When a woman targets a man, it’s usually about romantic issues. Han Zuo’s romantic experiences are quite limited, no current girlfriend, and only one ex-girlfriend. Could it be…”

Gu Junzhu’s gaze roamed over her face, “Are you the ex-girlfriend who Han Zuo groomed with his own hands into a talent but then personally sent him to prison?”

The woman trembled all over, her lips quivering, unable to utter a single word.

She had just been serving in the room next to Han Zuo.

Seeing Han Zuo enter the adjacent private room, her heart immediately boiled over.

After coming out of prison, where she was a released convict struggling to find employment…

Her childhood sweetheart had become a prisoner; friends scattered like birds and beasts, even her family home was sold.

While she was with Han Zuo, she had also possessed some assets, but before going to prison, in an attempt to save herself, she lost everything.

After leaving prison, she was flat broke, left with nothing.

She begged many people, and a classmate, taking pity, had gotten her this job.

With room and board covered, she wouldn’t starve, but it was tough.

Every day she would bow down to serve others, watching people dressed brightly coming and going, sitting in private rooms enjoying the finest meals and the best wines.

Once, she had lived that kind of life.

But now, she could only watch others enjoy, while she stood to the side to serve.

If she encountered a good-natured clientele it was fine, but with noxious ones, she had to endure their picky demands and even inappropriate advances.

She simply couldn’t go on living this way.
