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

Chapter 1560: Chapter 1564: Beitang Yao Unaware

Beitang Yao recalled that Beitang Huan mentioned Xia Qingqian hadn’t eaten yet, so he said, “Qian Qian, come, have some chicken soup first.”

He was really afraid she’d be hungry, so he scooped a bowl of chicken soup and personally fed it to Xia Qingqian.

Worried it might be too hot, he held the spoon by his lips, gently blowing on it before bringing the soup to Xia Qingqian’s lips, “Open your mouth.”

Xia Qingqian watched his actions, and whenever this man showed such a gentle expression towards her, her heart couldn’t help but feel a surge of joy and gratitude.

She obediently opened her mouth and took in the soup from the spoon, her bright eyes gazing at him, her soft voice saying, “Thank you!”

Beitang Yao laughed softly, leaned in and kissed her forehead, saying, “Why are you so reserved with me? Don’t forget we’re about to become husband and wife!”

With his reminder, Xia Qingqian remembered what he had said before and withdrew her expression.

“Young Master Yao, I’ve never seen a photo of your mother. Can you show me?” Xia Qingqian thought of the lady she saw in the stone chamber, feeling a bit suspicious, yet unsure.

Beitang Yao thought it made sense for her to want to see his mother, so he nodded and said, “Finish your chicken soup first, then I’ll get the photo for you. If Mom knows you gave birth to three babies for me, and she’ll be a grandmother, she’ll be delighted!”

Xia Qingqian watched Beitang Yao’s face full of happiness, feeling a bit reluctant, but she smiled along, quietly finishing two bowls of soup.

He placed the bowl aside, took out a carefully preserved photo, and handed it to Xia Qingqian.

Xia Qingqian looked at the person in the photo, her mouth twitching a few times, “Young Master Yao, is this the Lady?”

Her hands holding the photo frame trembled slightly; the woman in the stone chamber and the woman in the photo were exactly the same. Wasn’t it said that the Lady had already passed away?

What on earth is happening? Can someone tell her what exactly is going on?

“Yes, this is my mom, and the children’s grandmother.” A trace of sadness flickered in Beitang Yao’s eyes, as if he preferred not to touch on past matters or recall them.

But Xia Qingqian wanted to know, and he could tell her.

“Hasn’t the Lady been gone for eighteen years?” Xia Qingqian knew she shouldn’t ask, but her curiosity compelled her to do so.

Indeed, Beitang Yao slightly raised his brows and said sternly, “Qing Qian, what do you mean by that? Do you think people can come back to life after death?”

Then, what about the woman in the stone chamber? Did Beitang Yao not know about this?

She really wanted to ask, but she had promised Madam Rong and the Lady in the stone chamber not to reveal a word of what she saw!

“I didn’t mean it that way!” Xia Qingqian hurriedly apologized, “Young Master Yao, I’m sorry, I’m sorry! It’s all my fault!”

She was frightened by the sudden chill on his face and had to suppress the sourness in her heart to keep herself from crying.

Beitang Yao snapped out of it, realizing he had overreacted too. Seeing her lower her head, he felt a bit of remorse, so he sat back down, pulled her into his arms, kissed her forehead, and said, “I didn’t mean to yell at you, and I know that wasn’t what you meant.”

While Xia Qingqian nestled in his arms, she pondered over the woman she saw today in the stone chamber, who looked exactly like the one in the photograph. How could this be explained?
