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

”You don’t know what happened? But Sister Huan said you were locked in the stone chamber. When we got there, you’d already delivered the babies. Did you know the secret of this place all along? Were you trying to kill my mom and my aunt, is that it?” Beitang Huan seemed to have gone crazy as she rushed up and yanked at Xia Qingqian. ”I’m asking you, is that it or not?”

Xia Qingqian let Beitang Huan tear at her body. She knew she was being falsely accused! She really knew nothing at all!

”Huan! That’s enough! Before we figure out what really happened, don’t talk nonsense!” Beitang Yao pulled Xia Qingqian into his arms.

Right now Xia Qingqian was grateful to Beitang Yao. She buried her face against his chest, sobbing.

Seeing Beitang Yao shield Xia Qingqian, Beitang Huan suddenly gave a cold laugh. ”Xia Qingqian, do you have any idea who you killed? She was your biological mother!”

”What?” Xia Qingqian frowned and lifted her head from Beitang Yao’s embrace, staring blankly at Beitang Huan.

”Madam Rong is your birth mother!” Beitang Huan shoved Xia Qingqian hard, then bolted out!

”No!” Xia Qingqian kept shaking her head and grabbed the fleeing Beitang Huan. ”Huan, you must be lying to me, right?” She wanted to fling what Beitang Huan had just said out of her mind!

”Just a short while ago, when Mom saw Zi Jin, she completely changed. Then she pulled me aside and told me Zi Jin looks exactly like her daughter did when she was little!” Beitang Huan was hurting from being yanked, and quickly pushed Xia Qingqian away. ”Qian Qian, why did you kill my mom? You were the one who told me to make up with her and go back to how we used to be. Why would you do this?”

Xia Qingqian was completely stunned. What flashed before her eyes was Madam Rong’s tragic figure screaming ”Qian Qian.”

”Yao, you have to believe me! It really wasn’t me!” Xia Qingqian clung desperately to Beitang Yao’s arms, fighting to defend herself. ”Yao, when I got there, Madam Rong and the First Madam were already hurt.”

Beitang Yao only tightened his hold on Xia Qingqian, his face dark. With his arm around her waist, he murmured, ”It’s okay. After you calm down, tell me what on earth happened.”

Xia Qingqian buried her face against his chest, nodding over and over. He half carried her out, because her legs had gone weak. Everything that had suddenly erupted in the stone chamber had left her completely at a loss.

Everyone waited outside the infirmary for a while. Lao Chen and Ye Feng came out; it was Ye Feng who spoke. ”Young Master, we’ve done all we can. Madam Rong lost too much blood, and the knife went straight into her heart. And... the First Madam is still unconscious.”

”What? Ye Feng, what did you say? How could my mom end up like this?” As soon as Beitang Huan heard, her nose stung, and tears instantly pooled in her eyes and then came flooding out.

”Miss Huan, I’ve done my best.” Ye Feng supported the swaying Beitang Huan, his voice hoarse.

Beitang Huan suddenly went wild again. She broke free from Ye Feng and flung herself at Xia Qingqian, clutching at Xia Qingqian’s clothes and screaming, ”Give my mom back to me! You murderer! Qian Qian! Why did you kill Mom? She was your birth mother!”

”Huan! We still don’t know the truth. Don’t get so worked up!” Beitang Yao dragged Xia Qingqian out of Beitang Huan’s grasp and shielded her behind him, frowning at Beitang Huan.

Beitang Huan sobbed and wailed, her whole body convulsing uncontrollably. Her eyes were filled with hatred and bewilderment!
