Regarding the promise he made, she was both surprised and delighted, yet she didn't dare to reject him.
If she refused, he would surely use various means to threaten her; her greatest fear was that he would go after Mr. Xia.
She had completely lost contact with Mr. Xia now, and if she stood up to Beitang Yao, he would definitely do so!
"What are you thinking about so deeply?" He felt a bit jealous upon seeing Xia Qingqian lost in thought.
He admitted that the situation between them was caused by him, but he was trying hard to make amends.
He had grown accustomed to this woman, who had no hidden motives. Even if wronged, she didn't know how to defend herself. Where else could he find such a kind woman?
"Oh, I'm not thinking about anything." Xia Qingqian reached out to push him away and said softly, "Why are you still here? Aren't you supposed to be super busy? Go to work, I'll be fine on my own."
