Chapter 909: Regret
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn’t let go of her so easily.
Shao Yunduan leaned down and rubbed his chin against Qiao Xuan’s hair, relishing the softness against his skin. Their hearts raced in sync.
“My love…”
Shao Yunduan whispered and couldn’t resist planting a gentle kiss on her cheek.
Qiao Xuan was taken aback by the cool, tender touch. She let out a small gasp and instinctively stepped back, breaking free from his embrace.
Shao Yunduan was about to reach out to hold her when he stopped himself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtA tinge of regret crossed his mind—why didn’t he steal a few more kisses?
Inside, Qiao Xuan felt a jumble of emotions. She hadn’t intended to reject him, but she wasn’t ready. She worried that he might misunderstand her and feel hurt…
With a cautious glance, Qiao Xuan peeked at Shao Yunduan, relieved to see that he didn’t seem angry. Yet, her guilt intensified.
“Oh, by the way, did you chere today because of the letter from Manager Qin yesterday?”
Qiao Xuan tried to ease the awkwardness.
“Yes,” Shao Yunduan nodded in agreement. “l was worried they might gang up and mistreat you.”
Qiao Xuan smiled mischievously, gazing up at him with sparkling eyes. “Is that all you were worried about?”
Shao Yunduan mirrored her smile. “l was also concerned that the Yang Family might have second thoughts and try to fightfor my wife!”
Qiao Xuan’s heart fluttered with warmth. Her eyes shimmered, and she wore a tender smile. “No one can take them away from us! The Yang Family and the Qiao Family have no connection to us! We are strangers to them.”
In this moment, he decided to confess and make his stance clear.
She had never met the Yang Family before, and she felt like an outsider. Nobody had asked for her opinion or cared about her feelings.
If she were to be involved with the Yang Family, it would be grossly unfair to her.
Shao Yunduan wasn’t oblivious to that fact. Yet, hearing Qiao Xuan’s words still filled him with joy.
“You’re absolutely right! Let’s return htomorrow, alright?”
“Alright…”
They exchanged smiles.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShao Yunduan couldn’t resist holding her close. “Just take a rest.” The next day, County Magistrate Yang and his mother departed.
Their expressions were sour as they left, purposely avoiding eye contact with Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan, as if the sight of them was repulsive.
MadTang fumed, “The Qiao Family is bullying us! I finally understand that their invitation was merely a faqade, concealing their malicious intentions. What are they trying to prove?”
“My son is a talented official, while Shao Yunduan is just a Provincial Champion. There’s nothing for them to show off!”
“And to think they were the ones who called off the engagement, yet now they’re behaving so despicably!’
“Xi, I will find you a far superior family, one that surpasses the Qiao Family by a thousandfold!”
County Magistrate Yang smiled. “Mother, please don’t be angry. It’s not worth it. As for my marriage, you can make the decision. I’m doing this for my own sake.’
MadTang smiled with satisfaction. “Of course, I’m doing it for your sake!”
Unable to resist the opportunity, she took another dig at Qiao Xuan. “The Second Miss is so impolite and sharp-tongued. She’s clearly not a good person.. I don’t like her at all!”
