"What do you want to eat, I’ll have Maria prepare it for you and bring it up." He gently caressed her face, her hairline, with his eyes shimmering softly.

Xia Qingqian felt a sting in her nose, resting her head on the soft pillow, she shook her head gently and said, "I’m not hungry, thank you."

"Silly girl, you haven’t eaten yet, have you? I’ll ask Maria to make the sweet and sour pork you like." The waiter at the restaurant told him that Xia Qingqian hadn’t eaten anything, this silly girl always made people worry.

But knowing she was worried about him, a warm current surged in his heart. However, she now understood how to keep her distance from him, and even her words were polite, which made him feel uneasy.

Xia Qingqian looked at Beitang Yao’s figure in a daze, her eyes slightly moist. He actually remembered that she liked sweet and sour pork, making her heart tremble fiercely and clutch tightly. Even she couldn’t describe what she was feeling.

His tenderness was just too unreal. How could he treat her like this? After announcing his fiancée, he suddenly began to be exceedingly gentle with her? She didn’t want such an outcome. She was a person with chastity and morals, and even if she was just a plaything for the Young Master, she couldn’t let herself get lost and ruin someone else’s relationship.

She hid under the covers, reaching out to stroke the large bed, tears slipping down with a patter. She couldn’t endure this torment; she really couldn’t bear it anymore. Beitang Yao’s treatment of her was simply a mad plunder. Occasionally, he would show her boundless tenderness, leaving her at a loss and not knowing what to do.

She and he had acted out so many times of passion on this big bed, and each upheaval would make her sink further. She liked the feeling of being caressed by him. Unknowingly, she gradually accepted his plunder and could always bear it, even becoming attached to the wonderful feeling he brought her.

However, these days were at an end. She could not reach out to touch him anymore. He was like a drug; the further away she was, the better for her. But she couldn’t leave him, only seeking a gap to survive by his side. As long as she had a little room to stay, she could live well.

She really didn’t have the confidence to walk into his world. What his world was like, she didn’t even know. He said that no matter what happened in the future, everything would be covered by him. But would he really always be with her? Would he?

She was grateful for his words, but she really couldn’t accept it, nor did she have the ability to accept it.

After a while, Maria brought up the prepared meal and knocked on the door, "Miss Xia, get up and eat, the Young Master asked me to bring it up to serve you the meal." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Xia Qingqian got up from the bed and said softly, "Come in."

She was also a servant, so how could it be someone else’s turn to serve her? She smiled helplessly, stepped forward to take the meal from Maria’s hands, and placed it aside, softly asking, "Maria, how is Uncle Quan now?"

Maria thought for a moment before replying, "The butler is lying in bed with Ye Feng taking care of him, don’t worry too much, eat first."

Maria, a forty-year-old woman, felt a touch of emotion seeing such a scene. The Young Master’s anger towards Uncle Quan today was too intense, causing inexplicable tension, and now the entire villa was in an unprecedentedly tense atmosphere.
