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

Chapter 956: Chapter 960: We’ll Talk When We Get Back to the Castle

The feeling she gave him was quite mysterious, even he couldn’t quite put a finger on what it was. In any case, it was an unbearably uncomfortable feeling, scratching at his heart. But, if she belonged to someone else... just the thought of that made his heart twist in pain!

This foolish woman who he never would have noticed in his entire life actually made him experience what it meant to taste bitterness and longing within just a month?

It was utterly unreasonable. He was of noble status—how could he inexplicably agree to let her meet other men, even though the man no longer existed? Yet, his heart was still hanging in suspense.

Xia Qingqian’s body was left weak and soft by Beitang Yao. Her eyelids felt heavy, so she decided to sleep. She thought, anyway, soon her time would no longer exist, and if she didn’t sleep well now, perhaps she would never have such a privilege again.

She woke up amidst a conversation; Beitang Yao was standing by the floor-to-ceiling window. Perhaps due to Beitang Yao not shutting it properly, there was a long, slender gap in the glass door, and Beitang Yao’s voice drifted out through the crack.

”Whatever it is, wait until I return to the castle!” His tone was somewhat heavy, and Xia Qingqian felt a shiver in her heart, but she wanted to know what the matter was even more...

”On what basis can he come back? Besides, the heir and successor can only be me, Beitang Yao! ... Would Beitang Group have today’s splendor without me?”

”He doesn’t deserve to be my daddy!”

”What?! You really want me to bring a granddaughter-in-law back for you?” The voice was shocking! It was even more incredulous!

”What era are we in now? Engagements? I’m doing well right now, I don’t need any woman! Do you think I’m some gigolo?!” Beitang Yao’s tone was icy, frantic, full of anger!

Pfft—

Xia Qingqian accidentally let out a laugh, clear as a mountain stream, trickling into one’s heart, surprisingly soothing.

Hearing this, Beitang Yao put down the phone, turned around, and through the floor-to-ceiling glass window, looked towards the direction from which the laughter came.

He suddenly furrowed his brows, staring at Xia Qingqian with a mix of confusion and a slight hint of wrath!

Meanwhile, from the other end of the phone came repeated calls, Beitang Yao hesitated for a moment, then hastily said a few words into the phone and hung up.

With a composed face, he opened the glass door, slowly walking to the side of the luxurious bed, staring deeply at the Xia Qingqian lying there.

”What are you laughing at?” he asked coldly.

As Beitang Yao walked towards her, Xia Qingqian had already put away her smile and curled herself to the corner of the bed with the blanket.

”I just dreamed of something funny.” She responded meekly, but her body was trembling violently!

Of course, she dared not tell him she laughed because she overheard his words. He compared himself to a gigolo? How could someone as proud and arrogant as him say something that undermined his status?

Just from Beitang Yao’s conversation, she sensed a strong aura. Beitang Yao seemed to have something on his mind, something concerning the family. It seemed his family wanted him to bring some woman back? Was he going back? Was he going to leave her too?

Thinking of this, Xia Qingqian’s heart inexplicably panicked, the feeling of loss making her extremely uncomfortable.

”What’s so funny? Share it if you can.” Beitang Yao paused for a moment, frowning skeptically, ”Or did you hear something?”

Saying that, he moved slightly, startling Xia Qingqian, who quickly backed away, staring straight at Beitang Yao, with a hint of timidity.
