Saving the Heartthrob Frenemy-Chapter 445: "Leave me alone."

"Let go," he said through gritted teeth.

The man tightened his grip and said, "I know you are still mad at me for not redeeming you at the brothel but I can’t go against my father. I will come to save you soon... just don’t let that beast take advantage of you."

Qie Xieling, "..."

Confusion clouded his face as he turned to look at the man. There was something familiar in the man’s eyes but it had something to do with the game character, not him personally. He had no idea what the hell this character was into.

Meanwhile, hidden in the undergrowth, Bo Ailun watched the scene unfold, his heart sinking with each passing second. He had set out to save young Miss Bi, to protect her from the assassin but the assassin was dead and now this. His footsteps faltered, and he retreated deeper into the shadows of the forest.

His mind raced, grappling with conflicting emotions. Bi Yu was supposed to marry his young master in an arrangement. Yet here she was, fraternizing with another man amidst the darkness of the forest. He had to let the young master know before he made the biggest mistake of his life. He retreated back without saying a word.

Meanwhile, Qie Xieling pushed the man away and landed a resounding slap on his face before storming away. The man grabbed his wrist trying to stop him but he ruthlessly kicked him in the groin before saying, "Leave me alone." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

Qie Xieling had no idea who this person was and he could only beat the crap out of him in anger before storming off. He was really angry because this person had the balls to touch him which was incredibly infuriating. The man groaned in pain as he curled on the ground enduring the torturous pain.

As soon as Qie Xieling stepped into the forest he was suddenly grabbed by several men belonging to the Bi clan. His heart pounded frantically as he found himself in a situation he really didn’t want to be in. He blamed the pervert he kicked in the groin just now.

He tried to free himself from their grip but he failed miserably. In fact, their grip was so painful further emphasising how weak gers were. Just this running around had already left him feeling powerless. With a clenched jaw, he suppressed the pain coursing through his body and mustered every ounce of resilience he had as they forced him to kneel.

At the sound of heavy boots approaching, his body trembled involuntarily. It was the same fear as the one he felt before they were attacked. Whoever this person was this character feared him greatly that he couldn’t control himself.

He raised his head slightly, his face ashen, peering through the red veil that was clouding his vision. There, amidst the sea of blue-clad men, stood the embodiment of his nightmares—the leader of the Bi Clan.

A sword blade pressed beneath Qie Xieling’s chin, forcing his head further back until his neck throbbed with agony. With a mixture of pain and defiance in his eyes, he met the gaze of the devil himself. The Bi clan leader stared down at him with an expression dripping with disdain, his voice laced with menace.

"Where do you think you were running off to?" the leader growled, his words piercing the air like a venomous serpent. The weight of his presence alone was suffocating, leaving Qie Xieling quivering subconsciously, both from the physical strain and the overwhelming aura of danger that surrounded him.

The man crouched down before him and touched his cheek through the veil. Qie Xieling subconsciously moved his head away his entire body irritable like he was being gnawed at by a thousand ants. Clan leader Bi grasped his chin and forced him to look at him. Qie Xieling hissed in pain and he swallowed hard suppressing the curse words at the tip of his tongue.

"Don’t forget who your true master is. All you have to do is follow my instruction and I promise you will never have to work at that filthy place ever again," he said but Qie Xieling knew that this character was being sent to his death. They all lied and used him. To them he wasn’t considered human but a worthless life that could be snuffed out at the snap of a finger.

They dragged him back to the bridal sedan and didn’t even bother to let him change his clothes. Qie Xieling exhaled deeply as he leaned his head against the wall of the bridal sedan. Because the curtain was slightly torn from when he fell earlier he could see Bo Ailun who had an even uglier expression than before. He sneered and rode forward.

"What’s his problem?" whispered Qie Xieling. He was the one who was slapped, almost got killed, was touched by a pervert and threatened by that devil so why was Bo Ailun acting like he was the most annoyed of the two?

Qie Xieling pulled up the cushion lying next to him and pressed his head against it before closing his eyes to sleep. He thought he should meditate to calm his emotions that were on the brink of erupting but instead, he got even more enraged. He saw this game character’s memories.

The him in this world was left on the side of the street by his mother who was about to remarry. She told him she would go and buy hawthorns for him with a smile and the little dumpling nodded obediently but the woman never came back. The little boy stood there until it got dark. When concerned adults asked him if he needed help he would tell them that he was waiting for his mother.

As the market came to a close it was clear that she wasn’t coming back. An old man took pity on him and took him to his family. The old man even tried to find his mother but it was pointless. Even reporting to the Yamen it was pointless. After the war between the five clans, there were a lot of families separated and children who went missing.

One day the old man took him with him at night under the guise that he had found his mother. Instead, he was sold off to slave merchants who had come to town. The little boy didn’t even cry. He just sat in the caged cart watching the man greedily counting his coins. That was the first time he was sold.
