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

She didn’t want to hurt anyone anymore. Moreover, given the current situation of the Beitang Family, the one holding power was Young Master Yao. If they were foolish enough to make a move behind his back, they would certainly meet a bad end.

By Young Master Yao’s nature, he wouldn’t harm the innocent. However, the Second Madam was different. It is often said that the heart of a woman is the most venomous, and this referred to Ling Mei. If she didn’t go along with the Second Madam’s wishes, her whole family would suffer.

Thinking of this, Sister Chen, for the greater good, would rather offend Young Master Yao than let her family suffer with her.

And Ling Mei, knowing this about Sister Chen, had been using Sister Chen’s family to coerce her into doing things for her for the last ten years.

”Qing Qian, I’m really sorry. My mommy is just like that; she clinks glasses with everyone she meets. I’ll send you back later.” Beitang Che noticed that Xia Qingqian’s face was red like a ripe apple from drinking, which was quite tempting.

”Um, it’s okay. The Second Madam is an elder, and if I didn’t clink glasses with her, it would be really disrespectful...” Xia Qingqian also put down her chopsticks, gently shook her head, and said, ”Young Master Che, my head is a bit heavy. Could you do me a favor?”

”Where are you feeling unwell?” Beitang Che, upon hearing that her head was heavy, blamed himself, ”Should I have George take a look at you?”

”No need, it’s probably just because I drank a little wine. I want to go back and rest; I’ll be fine after that.” Xia Qingqian waved her hand and, with Beitang Che’s help, sat on the soft sofa, ”Young Master Che, could you please call Huan to come pick me up...”

Before she could finish speaking, her head tilted, and her dreamy eyes were now closed.

Beitang Che was anxious beside her. Just as he was about to call George, he too felt darkness before his eyes. The whole world was swaying, and before he could figure out what was going on, he collapsed onto the sofa without having time to think about what had happened.

Sister Chen stood at the staircase, watching Xia Qingqian and Beitang Che both collapse onto the sofa. She let out a sigh of relief, but her nerves were more tense. She dragged her heavy steps over and had the other servants help carry them to their rooms.

After Sister Chen finished everything, she was extremely anxious inside. She sighed secretly, thinking how the Second Madam even plotted against her own son; she truly was a woman not to be trifled with.

No wonder ten years ago, the First Madam could never compare to the Second Madam. The First Madam was too kind-hearted and was nowhere near as ruthless as the Second Madam.

Back then, if the First Madam had been a bit more ruthless, she wouldn’t have fallen into the Second Madam’s hands...

After everything was in place, Sister Chen walked to Beitang Yao’s villa and rang the doorbell. It was Sister Huan who came to open the door. Seeing Sister Chen, Sister Huan was somewhat tempted: ”Sister Chen, may I ask what brings you here?”

”Oh, it’s like this: Miss Xia asked me to come over and invite Miss Huan to go over there. Could you please relay the message?” Sister Chen’s eyes flickered, pinching the flesh of her thigh in secret to make her voice sound natural.

Sister Huan felt something was off but couldn’t pinpoint it. Hearing that Xia Qingqian was at Beitang Che’s villa, she became a bit worried and quickly said, ”I’ll go right now!”

Sister Chen waited outside for a while and then saw Beitang Huan and Sister Huan come out of the house.

Upon seeing Sister Chen, Beitang Huan asked, ”Sister Chen, isn’t Qian Qian with Grandpa now? Why is she at Brother Che’s place?”
