Hidden Marriage, Overbearing Love: Mr! Please Let Me Go Chapter 1094 - 1098: The Young Master Has Changed

His heart suddenly constricted, and he spoke with displeasure, "You are making a great effort to repay, but what do you even have to repay with? I've stated before, you only need to repay with your body! That was our arrangement from the beginning. You will stay by my side, and no matter what occurs, you are forbidden to leave even an inch. Without my consent, do not even consider doing anything I do not wish to see!"

Witnessing her heartbroken crying, he felt he was on the brink of losing control. How had their relationship devolved to this point? Initially, his intention was merely to treat her as a simple plaything. However, after all that had transpired, a change began within him, to the extent that he no longer wished to cause her pain.

"Young Master, I do not wish for my presence to impede your future." Recalling the words spoken by Gu Ziqian, they held a degree of validity. The individual he required was someone who could offer career advancement, and she would unfortunately become a liability.

"Do you genuinely believe a mere Xia Qingqian could possibly affect my future? You are vastly overestimating your own importance." He felt as though he had just heard the most ludicrous joke imaginable, yet the realization that she was concerned for him caused his anger to subside considerably.

He gently cupped her cheek and inquired softly, "What is truly happening here? Tell me." He absolutely did not desire for her to endure any form of injustice because of him. Only he possessed the right to torment her; no one else would be permitted to do so.

"I am quite alright, thank you for your concern." Indeed, the solicitude and tenderness Beitang Yao displayed at this exact moment, she recognized, emanated genuinely from his heart; it was impossible to fabricate. Nevertheless, she was unwilling to burden him. His professional endeavors were already taxing, and now he was compelled to fret over her predicaments, a weight she could not bear.

Furthermore, how could she possibly reveal that it was Gu Ziqian who had struck her? How could she possibly tarnish Gu Ziqian's reputation in Beitang Yao's eyes?

"In reality, the situation between Ziqian and myself was a decision made by our families, not by my own volition." He lowered his head to bestow a kiss upon her forehead, offering this explanation.

Xia Qingqian suddenly trembled; she had not anticipated Beitang Yao divulging these personal details. Could this signify that he held her in high regard? If not, why would he elaborate on his affairs with Gu Ziqian to her?

This revelation sparked a sweet sensation within her heart, yet it was swiftly extinguished by a lingering bitterness. Individuals like them, originating from influential families, were bound by predetermined life paths, by specific marital arrangements, and they placed immense value on social parity within such alliances.

"Young Master, I am fully aware of my standing; I have always maintained a clear understanding of it. However, please rest assured, I have never harbored any inappropriate intentions towards you, neither in the past, nor in the present, and certainly not in the future. I am profoundly grateful that you purchased me and extricated me from my dire circumstances back then, truly, Young Master." Tears streamed down her face as she spoke, petrified of being misinterpreted by others, and most importantly, by him. She had absolutely no desire for him to perceive her as some sort of avaricious, insatiable woman.

The moment she declared she had never entertained improper thoughts about him, his heart experienced a sharp pang! His eyes suddenly welled with a profound loneliness—indeed, how could she possibly harbor feelings for him? Everything that had occurred between them was not by her choice; her heart unequivocally belonged to Qiao Zhenyu.

"What on earth am I to do with you?" His gaze drifted into the distance as he captured her lips in a deep kiss, his hands roaming, softly caressing her chest, until a few delicate moans escaped her lips, inciting him to further intensify his actions.
