Hidden Marriage, Overbearing Love: Mr! Please Let Me Go

Chapter 871: Chapter 873: Why Is Your Face So Pale

As she reached out to touch her forehead, her hand was covered in cold sweat. How could she have seen such a thing? Just thinking about it made her feel nauseous.

She recalled Beitang Huan and the way she looked at her, eyes filled with resentment and a desire to destroy everything. So it was because she touched Beitang Huan’s things that Huan gave her such a fierce look.

Xia Qingqian dared not let herself think about it any further; this kind of relationship was really beyond her imagination.

All afternoon, she was drenched in cold sweat, unable to stop images of Beitang Yao with other women in her mind, and that woman was Beitang Huan...

Beitang Yao and Beitang Huan... such a disgusting and perverted matter, made her chest feel heavy, wanting to vomit.

”Why are you in a daze?” A voice broke her wild thoughts, and she yelped in fright, quickly jumping up from the chair. When she saw the face of the visitor, she sighed in relief.

”Night Wind Housekeeper, it’s you...” Xia Qingqian shook her head, raising a hand to wipe away the sweat beading on her forehead.

The documents Xia Qingqian left on the table were not put away. Night Wind walked over, pulled out a document, and glanced through it a few times.

”You spent the entire afternoon translating these documents?” These were documents from the past few years, which the Young Master hadn’t processed much and left neglected.

Now, Xia Qingqian sorted them out clearly, even categorizing them.

”I saw that the Young Master didn’t assign any tasks, so I took some documents from the bookshelf to translate and categorize.” She had just translated some and had been in a daze, pondering over random things.

Even now, she was still shaken, trying hard not to think about those things, but they kept haunting her.

”Why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell?” Night Wind noticed Xia Qingqian’s suddenly pale cheeks and asked with concern.

”I’m fine...” She gently shook her head. ”Night Wind Housekeeper, where did the Young Master go?”

Night Wind put the document back and turned to look at Xia Qingqian, ”The Young Master has already gone home. I’m here to take you to prepare for tonight’s ball.” With that, Night Wind gestured for her to follow.

Xia Qingqian took the gift box Beitang Yao had given her before leaving and nodded slightly at Night Wind before leaving.

In the silent car, Xia Qingqian pondered for a long time before finally mustering the courage to ask, ”Night Wind Housekeeper, has it always been this way between the Young Master and Miss Huan?” Asking like this shouldn’t reveal any issues, right?

Driving the car, Night Wind did not immediately respond to Xia Qingqian’s sudden question. After a long pause, he finally said, ”Miss Xia, if it’s not something you need to focus on, try not to pry. Knowing too much isn’t good for you.”

As a servant, it’s important to know your place and discard anything that shouldn’t be heard or said. These are matters between the masters.

Xia Qingqian’s cheeks turned slightly red, wisely swallowing the words rising in her throat, and looked at the scenery flashing past outside the window.

”Miss Xia, I want to remind you of one thing.” Night Wind glanced at the rearview mirror, just catching Xia Qingqian’s gaze falling upon him, ”I’ve already investigated the matter of Zhenyu, and he looks exactly like Nancy.”

At Night Wind’s words, Xia Qingqian even forgot to breathe, holding her breath as she listened to Night Wind finish speaking.
