Hidden Marriage, Overbearing Love: Mr! Please Let Me Go-Chapter 773 - 774: To Catch My Attention
Underneath her eyelids, the woman’s eyes bore a resemblance to someone’s eyes, clear and untouched by any speck of dust, so lively.
But it was precisely this kind of woman who knew how to disguise herself, the purer she appeared, the more vile she was! Deep down, she was filled with an unmistakable aura of lowliness!
She endured the pain in her palm and jaw, her eyes glistening with tears, and with blurred vision, she looked at the stern Beitang Yao, "Mrs. Li said that as long as I pass the probation period tonight, I can continue working here..."
Beitang Yao’s dark eyes, as black as ink, showed a hint of menace. He impatiently interrupted Xia Qingqian, "Name your price, I’ll buy you!" He coldly curled his lips, his face showing a trace of contempt and ridicule.
Xia Qingqian’s eyes filled with a flash of astonishment. He misunderstood her intentions; she just wanted this job to help support her family.
She never intended to sell herself... She didn’t want him to buy her, she only wanted this well-paying job. She wouldn’t dare to tell Mr. Xia about working in a place like this, if he knew, he would surely break her legs.
"Young Master, it’s not like that... I just..." just wanted to keep this job, but feeling the cold light shooting towards her, the rest of her sentence got stuck in her throat.
"Pretending to be so noble? Isn’t everything you’re doing just to attract my attention? Now that you’ve got what you wanted, you’re putting on a pitiful act, what’s that for?" He released her, his eyes reflecting a gaze of mockery and disdain. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚
As he let go of her, he caught a glimpse of the blood droplets falling from her palm, and looking at her pale face, Beitang Yao was momentarily dazed.
However, he couldn’t be bothered with her injuries and left the private room straight away. Upon seeing the madam standing outside, he threw a sentence: "Clean her wounds." He thought he must be mad, to randomly ask a woman to name a price and then buy her. So what if he bought her? She wasn’t the woman who had hurt him so deeply.
By the time the madam came to her senses, Beitang Yao had already left the nightclub.
The madam saw all the people being expelled from the presidential suite, except Xia Qingqian, and she gritted her teeth in hatred, thinking, ’Ruined my business!’
Xia Qingqian stood dazedly, looking at her hand pierced with glass shards, frowning, and extended her other hand to gently pull out the fragments.
She still couldn’t understand why he said such hurtful words, she had no intention of seducing him. She was just startled by the high-pitched moans of a woman nearby, which led to her daze and spilling wine on him.
At that moment, her phone rang in her pocket.
She took out her phone and looked at the caller ID, her brows furrowed slightly; Dad had never called her before.
Her heart swelled with unease, and as she pressed the answer button, her father’s anxious voice came through, "Qingqian, come and save Dad, quickly!"
"Dad, what’s wrong? Where are you now?" Xia Qingqian asked with a trembling voice.
"..." Mr. Xia stammered on the other end, and after Xia Qingqian’s repeated questioning, he said, "Qingqian, it’s all Dad’s fault, I didn’t want you to work so hard, so I went to the casino. Thinking I had good luck, I gambled away Mom’s compensation..."
His words left her stunned, suddenly feeling lost in her surroundings.
