Rich Young Mistress: Young Master Xie’s Dearest Beloved Wife

Bai Yaoyao minded those words a lot. Moreover, he had never told her what she meant to him.

Bai Yaoyao’s tone was full of bitterness.

She turned her head away, refusing to look at Duan Yanhao any longer. She felt that her heart was simply too weak for being bothered by such a small matter.

She had no idea when Duan Yanhao had slowly crept into her heart, offering her warmth.

All in all, she simply enjoyed the days with his company. With him by her side, she had never felt lonely. Her misery had also dissipated.

Duan Yanhao looked at how upset Bai Yaoyao looked. As he gently caressed her cheeks, he lowered his head and whispered into her ear, “Yaoyao, I have a past too, but that’s all in the past. Would it bother you?”

Bai Yaoyao listened to Duan Yanhao’s words, and her heart wavered. He had a past too?

Why would Bai Yaoyao mind? She herself had a painful past and understood clearly how miserable it felt. She took the initiative to hug Duan Yanhao by his waist and answered, “As long as you don’t have any other woman by your side now, I won’t mind.”

Duan Yanhao’s tensed expression softened greatly. “I don’t have any other woman now.”

Bai Yaoyao nodded and tightened her hug around Duan Yanhao’s waist. She wanted to give him some warmth because she knew how someone with a painful past would crave for warmth.

She thought that the two of them were both porcupines. They were lonely porcupines who wanted to get closer to each other. However, they were afraid that their spikes would hurt each other, and that the other’s spikes would hurt them. Therefore, they hadn’t made any progress for such a long time.

Bai Yaoyao leaned closer to Duan Yanhao’s waist and pouted. “She was purposely targeting me by addressing you as ‘brother-in-law.’”

Duan Yanhao lowered his head and kissed Bai Yaoyao’s forehead. Caressing her cheeks, he whispered, “Do you still remember the hill that I brought you to?”

“Yes.”

Duan Yanhao continued rather painfully. “That is where she is buried. She was an exceptional soldier who had sacrificed herself during a mission. It has already been six years.” Even after six years, he still felt hurt thinking about it.

“So you’re that woman’s brother-in-law?”

“I’ve been betrothed to her since I was a child. Her name is Chi Jiaojiao. Despite her dainty name, she didn’t like dolling up but instead loved fighting. We were much more than fellow soldiers fighting side by side. I didn’t care about anything else other than the military, and there was no love in my feelings for her. I thought that I would live the rest of my life with her, but I never thought that she would…”

After speaking those words, Duan Yanhao’s voice turned heavy, and he sounded depressed.

Bai Yaoyao knew that Duan Yanhao must have gathered a lot of courage to be honest with her. After all, it was very painful to dig out his past.

Bai Yaoyao covered Duan Yanhao’s lips and shook her head. “Duan Yanhao, I believe you. You don’t have to continue.”

“Yaoyao, I’m sorry. I’ve made you sad today.”

“No, I’ve misunderstood you.”

Duan Yanhao caressed Bai Yaoyao’s hair and replied, “But you’ve also frightened me today. Do you know how I felt when I couldn’t find you?”

Bai Yaoyao pouted and answered, “I can’t read your mind. How would I know?”

Duan Yanhao took a deep breath and lowered his head to kiss Bai Yaoyao’s lips. He didn’t allow Bai Yaoyao to think at all and simply did it.

After that kiss, he couldn’t control himself anymore. Her sweet taste enticed him, making him want to probe even deeper.

Bai Yaoyao’s lips were full of Duan Yanhao’s traces, and her head rang. She hadn’t expected him to be so dominant without even asking her first!
