However, his words brought a sense of relaxation to her entire being, dissipating her tension. As his fingers roamed, an unparalleled joy washed over her.
She found the courage to wrap her arms around his neck, softly pleading, "Young Master, please stop for a moment, okay? I need to rest." After all the exertion, he seemed perfectly fine, but she felt utterly drained. She couldn't help but wonder what kind of constitution he possessed! How could he have such boundless energy? Where did it all originate?
"Alright." He ceased his playful advances and drew her into his embrace, allowing her to drift into a profound slumber. He, too, was weary and required recuperation. Even though Xia Qingqian's absence had been brief, the lingering sense of unease gnawed at his heart.
This situation was far more terrifying than if Xia Qingqian had been taken captive! He possessed the capability to shield her from harm, to rescue her from the clutches of kidnappers! But he was powerless against the capricities of fate; he simply couldn't prevent them!
These uncontrollable circumstances left him feeling like a profound failure! Had he truly considered that Xia Qingqian might simply vanish from his life? She hadn't even fully grasped her own worth before departing so silently?
He was consumed by the dread of the day he might lose her!
This tumultuous cycle of losing and regaining, how could it not compel him to seek solace in such intimacy with her? Only through such closeness could he feel truly grounded. Indeed, he was also a man plagued by insecurity, especially when he was near her.
Leaning against him, Xia Qingqian succumbed to a deep sleep. His embrace offered a comforting warmth, providing her with immense solace.
Just before sleep claimed her, she felt his tender kiss upon her hair, murmuring softly as her body instinctively shifted closer to his.
As long as she slept beside him, he insisted she wear no clothes. Earlier, when she had requested to wear a simple garment, he had sternly asserted it was for her well-being, yet she had foolishly failed to appreciate his reasoning!
Startled, Xia Qingqian quickly conceded, refraining from further argument. This man was simply too... beyond description, leaving her with only a smile tinged with sweetness, a hint of bitterness, and an air of guileless simplicity.
His hand rested on her waist, gently pressing upon her abdomen, a subtle, tender smile gracing his lips. He had never displayed such expressions or actions before, yet it was all for Xia Qingqian's sake that he now did so.
In truth, Beitang Yao was an exceptionally remarkable individual. Despite treating Xia Qingqian as a cherished possession, he never genuinely regarded her as mere chattel; his occasional outbursts stemmed from momentary anger, not from a foundation of disrespect.
Since she was willing to be his companion, and he possessed the resources to provide for her, their arrangement was of little consequence.
Upon awakening, the clock had already passed ten in the evening. He had never experienced such profound, uninterrupted sleep, a state he now realized was attainable only by her side. Yet, the space beside him was empty, causing him to frown involuntarily, fearing that everything he had experienced before sleep had merely been an illusion!
He rose from the bed, retrieved his clothes, and dressed, yet the lingering sensation of her presence remained, as if she had never departed!
Descending the stairs, he saw her figure bustling about in the kitchen, a wave of pure happiness spreading across his features, even softening his typically stern eyes with a gentle warmth.
