out as if she were about to take flight, leaving Feng Ming shaking his head and chuckling at her retreating figure.I could only shout after her retreating figure, "A-Tang, slow down! The mountain path..."No."

Xiao Qin interrupted Jiang Qingyang's words. Her eyes were no longer filled with the lingering affection they once held, but instead radiated a resolute determination:

"Young Master Jiang, you needn't say such things. Between us, we are just ordinary friends. There is no need for you to put yourself and your family in danger for me. I understand that, so Young Master Jiang, please do not speak further."

"Qiner, you...what on earth is wrong with you"

Jiang Qingyang couldn't accept Xiao Qin's current attitude. Over the years they had known each other, Xiao Qin hadn't been afraid of him, she had acted cute and spoiled, and even thrown tantrums, but this cold and ruthless state was unprecedented.

He suddenly felt a flutter in his chest.

Unlike Jiang Qingyang's misunderstanding, Xiao Qin didn't quite understand him either. He used to be able to let go easily, but now he seemed determined to be tied to her.

Why is that again

She is not stupid, especially since her father frequently mentioned the current situation these days, and she was well aware that Jiang Qingyang belonged to the deposed prince Mo Yunchen.

So she thought about it more, could there be something on her person or in the Anle Hou Mansion that Mo Yunchen's side found desirable

Thinking of this, Xiao Qin looked at Jiang Qingyang with a wary gaze.

Jiang Qingyang's heart skipped a beat. Why was Xiao Qin suddenly looking at him like that Had she seen through something

But soon, Xiaoqin shifted her gaze away, thinking to herself that no matter what Jiang Qingyang's intentions were, it wouldn't concern her anyway. She wouldn't have any further interactions with him, and neither would her father or two older brothers get involved in this mess.

As long as she stayed away from Jiang Qingyang, she wouldn't have to worry about anything.

Thinking about this, Xiao Qin took a step back, looked at Jiang Qingyang with indifferent eyes, and said in a neither cold nor warm tone, "Jiang Qingyang, I'm not going to play any more games of reluctance. I hope we don't need to contact each other anymore. It's good for both of us."

Perhaps it was because of the major events she had experienced, that she had completely lost her desire for love. Now, even when facing the man she once loved desperately, she could remain calm.

Jiang Qingyang naturally didn't want to let it go like this. He didn't know what came over him suddenly, perhaps Xiao Qin's attitude made him feel a strong sense of crisis.

At this moment, I even have the urge to cook a full meal.

Thinking this way, he immediately took action. He suddenly picked up Xiao Qin.

Before Xiao Qin could scream, he had quickly pressed his finger against her pressure point.

Xiao Qin's eyes widened. She wanted to speak up and alert the maidservant and coachman to the deception, but she couldn't utter a single sound.

She regretted deeply in her heart why she had trusted Jiang Qingyang so much, leading to her current predicament where she couldn't call for help.

She couldn't figure out where Jiang Qingyang was taking her in such a hurry.

Not long after, Jiang Qingyang carried her into a courtyard. Looking at the dilapidated courtyard, fear welled up in her heart.

What is Jiang Qingyang trying to do

In a short while, she finally saw what Jiang Qingyang was trying to do. She saw him carry her into a room with a dilapidated bed inside.

He gently placed her on top, his eyes now burning with intense desire.

Xiao Qin stared at him with wide eyes. Even without anything happening, she could guess what Jiang Qingyang wanted to do in this situation.

After putting the xiao aside, Jiang Qingyang slowly caressed Xiaoqin's face, his tone as gentle as he could muster. "Xiaoqin, I will definitely marry you. In the future, there will only be you, so please don't be angry with me, okay"

Xiaoqin could only stare at him with her eyes, there was nothing else she could do.

Looking at Jiang Qingyang's unfamiliar appearance, she felt a shiver down her spine. Was it him who had changed, or was he always good at disguising himself

He should be very clear that even though she has lost her fame, she still cares.

He just carried her here like this. If anyone found out, she would be shamed for life and never be able to hold her head high again. And she wasn't afraid of the shame herself, but of the shame it would bring upon House Anlehou.

Her reputation would drag down her parents, her two brothers, and even her nieces and nephews. Their lives would be difficult because of their association with her, and they would forever carry the shame of having her as family.

She herself hadn't thought about finding another partner, but she hoped her nieces and nephews could all have good relationships.

Now Jiang Qingyang ignores her opposition and treats her this way, is he going to push her to death!

Is the man in front of her still the person she knew

Seeing Xiao Qin's tears, Jiang Qingyang felt a pang in his heart. He had finally come to his senses now, but things had reached this point; he had no choice but to do this.

Xiao Qin, the Anle Houfu, he is bound to win.

Why is he the Prince's person

Since he chose this path, he had to see it through. The prince needed him and the Anle marquisate tied together with an unbreakable bond, and he had to do just that.

In the face of national events, his marriage or Xiao Qin's innocence seemed to matter little.

He only knew he needed to marry Xiaoqin and have the Anle Hou Mansion stand by his side.

Thinking of this, his eyes instantly became firm. He gently caressed Xiaoqin's cheek, wiping away her tears, "Xiaoqin, don't blame me."

Xiao Qin's eyes were fixed on him, the sadness in them making it impossible for him to look away.

Finally, after staring at Qin'er in silence for a moment, he still untied Xiaoqin's acupoints.

Having gained her freedom, Xiao Qin slapped Jiang Qingyang across the face without a word.

"Coward!"

Jiang Qingyang didn't get angry. He looked at Xiaoqin steadily, "Qin'er, I'm sorry, I...I can't leave you."

Xiao Qin sneered. Now that things had come to this, she naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to still think that Jiang Qingyang was acting this way because he couldn't let go of her, because he loved her to the point of madness.

Xiao Qin smirked, "Jiang Qingyang, do you really think I'm a fool Why are you treating me like this You know the truth."

Jiang Qingyang did not retort. He calmly stared at Xiao Qin, allowing her to vent her anger.

Even if Xiaoqin still wanted to strike him, he wouldn't stop her. The more Xiaoqin acted out, the less guilty he would feel inside.

However, Xiaoqin didn't do as he wished. She pushed Jiang Qingyang away with all her might, jumped off the bed herself, and ran out without saying a word.

No matter what, she wouldn't let Jiang Qingyang succeed.

It's a pity, things have developed to this point. How could Jiang Qingyang possibly let her leave just like that.

Before Xiao Qin could take a few steps, Jiang Qingyang grabbed her back.

Xiaoqin was shocked and, without regard for etiquette, immediately cried out for help.

After yelling several times, Jiang Qingyang finally sealed her mute point, preventing her from speaking any further.

Then, he directly picked her up and placed her back on the old bed. I brought you here today only because of your merit yesterday in reporting the matter. Let's go, and see how you perform today."After he finished speaking, he turned and continued walking towards the...
