Hidden Marriage, Overbearing Love: Mr! Please Let Me Go Chapter 1379 - 1383: Not Feeling Well

"Grandfather, it’s not that! This has nothing to do with Yao. I was feeling a bit unwell, so Young Master Yao told everyone not to disturb us! I’m sorry!" Xia Qingqian hurriedly took all the blame upon herself when she saw the old man about to reprimand Beitang Yao.

After speaking, she realized she had spoken too hastily, quickly lowering her head. What she implied was that the Young Master was avoiding others because of her, wasn’t it?

"Do you think I’m blind? Does this atmosphere look like you’re unwell? This child, honestly! Now that there’s a woman, you shut the door on your grandpa! Have you already forgotten about me?" The old man glanced inside and said.

The table still had the remnants of an unfinished candlelit dinner, and everywhere looked festive. Even a blind person could see what was going on.

"Alright, Grandpa, is there something you came over for?" Beitang Yao took the specially prepared milk tea coffee from Xia Qingqian, took a small sip, and asked.

This stupid woman!

Those were the words in Beitang Yao’s heart. A hopelessly foolish woman; serving tea and such is the work of servants, why is she getting involved?

He reached out his long arm and, in front of the old man and others, pulled Xia Qingqian into his embrace and said, "What I do with the woman I love is none of your concern."

"Yao, remember, you’re still engaged to Gu Ziqian! If they find out that you’re fooling around here with another woman, imagine the repercussions!" Beitang Yao’s father, Beitang Ting, slammed the teacup down, creating a significant sound.

"Engagement? It’s not something I want. Do you really think I’d compromise myself?" Beitang Yao tightened his grip on Xia Qingqian’s shoulder, causing her to wince and glance at him.

"The marriage with Gu Ziqian has been annulled. If you’re interested in Gu Family’s power, anyone who wants to marry them can, but leave me out of it!" Beitang Yao stated coldly, his deep-set eyes growing even darker. "The only woman for me is Xia Qingqian, remember that!"

Beitang Yao’s words shocked those present, except for the old man who calmly sat there sipping tea, his brow gradually relaxing, occasionally glancing at Beitang Yao and Xia Qingqian.

"Ting, didn’t I tell you not to trouble Yao with this matter anymore? Why are you so stubborn?" the old man set down his teacup and spoke thoughtfully.

"Dad, what’s wrong with you? How can you let a woman with nothing marry Yao? You’re very well aware of the Gu Family’s influence, which is much more beneficial to our Beitang Family!" Beitang Ting still did not understand, still could not let go!

"Back then, the power of my mom’s family could also assist the Beitang Family. Why did you treat her that way? If you didn’t love her, why did you marry her and have me? Considering how you treated my mother, you should have expected how I would treat you!" Beitang Yao said with a face of cold calmness, his voice carrying a hint of frost.

Beitang Yao’s words rendered Beitang Ting speechless, and he stared at his son furiously.

"Alright, you two are just unbelievable! Do you argue like this every time you meet, as if you were enemies?" The old man hurriedly intervened, "Qian Qian, I mainly came over to play a game of chess with you."

"Yao, don’t be like this. Can you talk things over calmly?" Xia Qingqian whispered in Beitang Yao’s ear, "Don’t make things so tense between you two, he is still your father after all."
