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

Chapter 959: Chapter 963: This Is Within Your Job Scope

She waited for four years, but in return, she got this cruel news. She had been holding on, so why did it all turn into nothing?

If she had known about this from the beginning, she would have nothing left to live for. She would let the people from the underground casino settle things with her and Mr. Xia, wouldn’t that be better? After all, Mr. Xia is the kind of person who doesn’t understand what ’turning back is the shore’ means, his mind is always on gambling.

She saved him once. Could she save him a second time, a third time, or even more?

If she had known this earlier, she shouldn’t have been so foolish in the first place, selling her dignity to save Mr. Xia. If those things hadn’t happened, at least her body would have been pure when she left!

”What are you thinking about so intently? In the meeting later, don’t act all dumbfounded.” His words, his voice, was like a cold and aloof superior barking orders at his subordinates.

”I still have professional ethics, you don’t need to remind me of that.” She replied to him softly, but now she bowed her head, her eyes lowered.

Seeing her injured little appearance, Beitang Yao couldn’t bear it, and he lightly coughed, ”After the meeting, let Ye Feng take you out to have some fun. You’ve been here for so long, haven’t gone out to play, have you?”

Such rare gentleness from him, Xia Qingqian was shocked. She quickly raised her head, hurriedly refused, ”No need, no need.” This sudden gentleness, she couldn’t handle it and found it overwhelming indeed!

”This is also part of your work, go conduct some field research.” He didn’t give her the chance to continue speaking, picked up his briefcase, and left the suite.

Xia Qingqian put her little dress into a paper bag and followed Beitang Yao out of the suite, out of the hotel, and into the car.

The car drove on the wide asphalt road and finally stopped in front of a tall building.

In a place like this, those without a pass or status can’t enter, and Beitang Yao’s face is everything, it’s the pass, it’s the status!

A very long line of two groups, all dressed in serious black uniforms, only differentiated by the color of their ties.

They all respectfully and in unison said: ”President Beitang.” A simple yet powerful title, enough to outline Beitang Yao’s noble status.

And as she followed behind Beitang Yao, she also received various strange looks, it was thanks to Beitang Yao’s blessings that she received such treatment.

Her lips also carried a slight smile, a professional smile, very polite.

Throughout the meeting, she was just responsible for taking notes on some important conversations, and she didn’t know why Beitang Yao wanted her to record these things, but if it was her job, she would just do it.

But throughout the long meeting, sleepiness unexpectedly came to find her, her upper eyelid began to kiss the lower eyelid, that kind of painful ordeal she had to accept, luckily her bangs covered her eyes, as long as she kept her head slightly bowed, she could hide the fact that she was dozing off during the meeting.

While she was thinking this way, one hand was placed on the notebook, and the other, holding the pen, moved randomly, as if something really was happening.

In her dream, she dreamt of the day she first met Qiao Zhenyu when she was a child, being bullied by many children, the thin and timid Xia Qingqian was no match for them.

”Xia Qingqian, you poor wretch, how dare you enter such a prestigious school? Do you think you’re Shan Cai?” The seven-year-old child at that time already had such unfathomable sophistication.

Poor Xia Qingqian, under their tyranny, whenever they called her name, she had to answer ”present!”
