Chapter 1596 - 1600: She Doesn’t Want Me Anymore

Thinking carefully about Ye Feng’s words just now, something seemed off. She suddenly widened her eyes: Young Madam? Did Ye Feng just call her Young Madam?

She walked to the door, opened it, and asked Ye Feng, "Ye Feng, did you just call me Young Madam?"

"Yes, Young Madam, is there anything you need?" Ye Feng looked at the open door and then turned to the beautiful and captivating woman.

"In the future, you should still call me Xia Qingqian. I can’t bear to be called Young Madam." The brilliance in Xia Qingqian’s eyes dimmed.

"This is permitted by Young Master, and Young Master also mentioned that once he returns, he will hold a wedding with you." Ye Feng noticed Xia Qingqian’s worried expression and quickly revealed Young Master’s plans, hoping to ease her mind.

Ye Feng is Beitang Yao’s trusted assistant, so he has always protected Xia Qingqian well. During this time, Young Master was truly right—the Madam did come over.

However, Ye Feng was unafraid when he saw the Madam and refused to let her disturb Xia Qingqian.

The Madam did not leave but went to find Beitang Huan instead.

"Madam." The servant holding the tray at the door saw the Madam’s arrival and immediately called out, "Madam, Miss Huan’s mood is still low, and she hasn’t eaten much all day. How can her body handle this?"

The Madam took the tray from the servant and said softly, "You all leave now, I’ll go in and talk to Huan."

"Yes, Madam." The servant breathed a sigh of relief, handed the tray to the Madam, and then left.

The Madam pushed open the bedroom door and saw Beitang Huan’s frail body curled up at the bedside, her eyes dull and devoid of any expression.

"Huan, Auntie is here to see you. I’ve heard you haven’t been eating properly; how can that be?" The Madam approached, placed the tray aside, and helped Beitang Huan sit up, "If your mother knew you had become like this, she would be heartbroken."

When Beitang Huan heard the word ’mother’, she slightly turned her gaze towards the Madam, dazed and lost, "Mother? Auntie, why was my mother so cruel to leave me? We finally got together, but then she abandoned me..."

Beitang Huan couldn’t hold back, and tears welled up again, "Auntie..."

"Child, stop crying, Auntie’s heart is breaking because of your tears!" The Madam gently soothed Beitang Huan’s back, which was rising and falling from sobbing, "Huan, Auntie feels for you too. It’s all my fault that I couldn’t protect your mother properly. I’m sorry..."

Upon hearing this, Beitang Huan stopped her tears and asked hoarsely, "Auntie, did Qian Qian really kill my mother? Why would she want to hurt you all?"

"Child, you are such a kind soul, fooled by her disguised appearance." The Madam spoke as if it was the truth, "That girl was indeed ruthless. Even as Madam Rong told her she was her daughter and begged her not to harm Madam Rong or me, she didn’t listen... she just came at us with a knife..."

"Auntie, did my mother really tell her she was Qian Qian’s mother?" Beitang Huan asked, choked up.

The Madam didn’t hesitate and nodded, saying, "Yes, despite Madam Rong’s pleas, that girl wouldn’t listen."

The Madam’s lying was masterful, but Beitang Huan believed it fully!
