Chapter 1126: Chapter 1130: His Embrace Makes Her Feel at Ease
But with his words, her whole body relaxed, and she was no longer tense. As his fingers wandered, she felt an unprecedented joy.
She dared to reach out and wrap her arms around his neck, saying, "Young Master, please stop touching, okay? I want to rest a bit." After such a fuss, he was fine, but she felt like she was falling apart. She really wanted to know what kind of structure his body was made of! How did he have so much stamina? Where did it come from?
"Alright." He stopped his teasing and pulled her into his arms, accompanying her as she fell into a deep sleep. He was tired too and needed rest. Although Xia Qingqian’s disappearance had been brief, the sense of unease lingered in his heart.
This was more terrifying than Xia Qingqian being kidnapped! He had the ability to ensure she wasn’t harmed; he could rescue her from kidnappers! But he couldn’t stop natural disasters from happening; he just couldn’t!
These uncontrollable things made him feel like a failure! He really had thought, had Xia Qingqian really left his world just like that? She hadn’t even fully realized her value, yet she left so quietly?
He was truly afraid of the day he might lose her!
This feeling of losing and regaining, how could it not drive him to do such things to her? Only through such intimacy could he feel real. Yes, he was also a man lacking a sense of security, especially when facing her.
Xia Qingqian leaned against him and fell into a deep sleep. This embrace was so warm, providing her with much comfort.
Just before she fell asleep, she felt his gentle kiss on her hair, and she murmured lightly, her body moving slightly to press closer to his.
As long as she slept by his side, he would not allow her to wear any clothes to sleep. Just now she asked to wear a close-fitting garment, and he sternly told her it was for her health, yet she foolishly didn’t appreciate it!
Xia Qingqian was frightened and quickly surrendered, no longer arguing with him. This man was just too... indescribable, so she could only smile with a mix of sweetness, bitterness, and simplicity.
His hand held her waist, pressing gently on her flat abdomen, and a slight gentle smile appeared on his lips. He had never shown such smiles or actions, but because of Xia Qingqian, he did all of these.
In fact, Beitang Yao was an extraordinarily great man. Despite Xia Qingqian being a pet to him, he never truly treated her like one; occasionally, he would just speak in anger.
Since she was willing to be his mistress, and he had the means to support her, it was nothing significant.
When he woke up, it was already ten in the evening. He had never slept so soundly, something that only happened by her side. Yet, beside him was indeed empty, and he couldn’t help but frown, fearing that everything before sleep had been an illusion!
He got out of bed, found his clothes, and dressed, but he felt her presence was still there, as if she had never left!
He went downstairs and saw her busy figure in the kitchen, feeling a wave of happiness radiate from the corners of his mouth, even making his usually cold eyes turn a bit gentle.
