"Certainly a bold demand from a vain woman. Do you think you’re worth that money?" Beitang Yao crossed his arms, scrutinizing Xia Qingqian as if trying to see through her.
Standing to the side, Ye Feng also stared dumbfoundedly at Xia Qingqian, finding it hard to believe she would say such a thing. He was worried for Xia Qingqian because, with those words, she had truly offended Miss Huan. He felt a cold sweat for Xia Qingqian in his mind, thinking that this girl really dared to offend the two great figures. Even they, the two generations of servants following the Beitang Family, wouldn’t dare utter a single wrong word.
"Miss Huan, it was you who asked to na my price. Although I respect you as the Young Master’s sister, please also respect . Since you know I’m rely a plaything bought by the Young Master, you should also realize the consequences if I breach the contract." Xia Qingqian gave a powerless, pale smile, "So, I lack the capital to break the agreent. It’s not that I won’t leave, but that I have no choice."
Xia Qingqian suddenly felt her life was truly pathetic; in this era of rule of law, in the eyes of the rich, she was so humble that she couldn’t even control her own fate.
She didn’t know what level of abuse and punishnt she would face from Beitang Yao next; all she hoped for was to survive in the cracks.
"You have no choice, then I’ll choose for you." Miss Huan’s phoenix eyes suddenly darkened, then opened abruptly, casting a cold light towards Xia Qingqian.
Xia Qingqian was frightened by that cold gleam, retreating a few steps until she stood behind Ye Feng’s burly figure.
Miss Huan turned around, opened the glass door of the cabinet, took out a dical knife, and then waved it, step by step, closing in on Xia Qingqian.
Ye Feng watched Miss Huan’s actions, feeling his heart chill, and hurriedly advised, "Miss Huan, please don’t act rashly."
"Ye Feng, if you dare stop , I’ll die in front of your eyes, and let’s see how you explain this to my father!" Miss Huan’s cold gaze fixed on Ye Feng, who was determined to protect Xia Qingqian.
Ye Feng was montarily speechless but remained motionless, using his body to shield the terrified Xia Qingqian seeking protection behind him.
"Ye Feng, I won’t say it twice, move out of my way—" Miss Huan stepped closer, her beautiful brows knitted tightly, turning unpleasant.
Without hesitation, Ye Feng pushed Xia Qingqian forward, "Miss Xia, run!"
Xia Qingqian watched Miss Huan, seemingly crazed, approach her with a dical knife, her heart montarily stopped beating, clutching tightly to the housekeeper’s clothes.
At the mont Ye Feng pushed her away, she realized Ye Feng dared not defy Miss Huan’s will; he could only help her this way.
She turned and ran out, but after only a few steps, Miss Huan’s cold and angry voice chased her ears, "Think you can leave? Not so easily!"
After glaring angrily at Ye Feng, Miss Huan turned to chase out, grabbing Xia Qingqian’s long and soft black hair at the doorway, pulling her back.
"It’s exactly your eyes that led my brother to make this decision; I’ll help you gouge them out now—" Having said that, Miss Huan moved the cold knife to Xia Qingqian’s face, slowly moving upwards.
Xia Qingqian was too scared to make a sound, only looking fearfully at the knife swaying before her eyes, her whole body like a fish placed on the table, allowing others to butcher.
