Chapter 973 - 977: Look Closely at Who I Am
"What do you mean maybe? You quack!" Beitang Yao erupted in anger, struggling to hold back the urge to punch Ye Feng, "If anything happens to her, you’re going down with her!"Ye Feng watched as the Young Master’s face turned livid, his eyes blazing with fury, his dark pupils shrouded in gloom, his entire being emanating an unpredictable wrath, causing an involuntary shiver to run through him.
"Xia Qingqian, you damned woman! Get down here immediately!" Beitang Yao stepped forward, standing in front of Ye Feng and Maria, "You have one second to get down here!"
"No—I won’t come down! If you catch me, you’ll find a way to threaten Beitang Yao, I won’t fall for it!" she shook her head and said, "Young Master, why are you here? You should leave quickly, I’m not your mistress, I won’t drag you down..."
"I am Beitang Yao! Look at me clearly! No one can hurt me, ... and no one will hurt you." Beitang Yao’s heart trembled slightly along with Xia Qingqian’s body, "This is my villa, there are no rats here, no one will harm you..."
When he saw Xia Qingqian’s body visibly weaken, he pressed the advantage. He moved slowly, step by step, until he was right in front of Xia Qingqian, just a few steps away. Reaching out his hand, he softly said, "Look clearly, what place is this, and who am I?"
This backlit feeling, damn, it’s unpleasant! Beitang Yao couldn’t see Xia Qingqian’s face clearly at that moment, but he could feel her anguish and helplessness. What the hell had those bastards done to torment her!
The gentle sunlight fell on Beitang Yao like it was shining on a diamond, sending out dazzling beams, making her eyes hurt, and she instinctively raised her hand to shield her eyes.
This action made the hearts of the people inside the room race a few circles faster!
"You’re Young Master Beitang Yao?" Her gaze fell on Beitang Yao, watching as he nodded, then she glanced around the room lightly, "This is your home in the United Kingdom? We’re safe, this isn’t the kidnappers’ place?"
"Yes, I am Beitang Yao, this is our home, there are no kidnappers here, just us!" Beitang Yao noticed that she finally calmed down, and a sense of relaxation spread through his body, "Will you... come down?"
Beitang Yao’s words left the two people standing behind him speechless; the Young Master actually said something so tender, and maybe, unconsciously, these could very well be the Young Master’s heartfelt words.
"No—you’re not Beitang Yao, he’s a cold-hearted, ruthless person, he would never say these words to me or care whether I live or die! You’re just wearing a façade similar to Beitang Yao’s, don’t think you can deceive me!" Xia Qingqian took a step back, tightly grabbing the wall, "As long as I jump, you won’t use me as bait!"
Beitang Yao’s face darkened, increasingly feeling that the woman before him wasn’t Xia Qianqian, but a provoked person, like a madwoman!
Is this what he really was in her eyes, merely a cold and ruthless person who didn’t care about her existence, was he truly that despicable? Then what was the meaning of her holding his hand and saying those words last night? Was she just fooling him?
"Do you remember what you said last night, about Beitang Yao being your light, giving you a sense of security? Now I’ve come, haven’t I? I’ve come to save you, I won’t let anyone harm you!" Beitang Yao’s hand at his side slightly tightened, his dark gaze flicking toward Ye Feng, communicating silently.
