Chapter 1184: 1184 Chapter 1184: 1184 The regret in his eyes deepened, and his voice was filled with overflowing emotions, “Qingyue, do you know?
From the first glance at you in the market, even though you were very ugly then, I was still attracted to you.
When you went to Rich Source Tavern to sell your recipe, I followed you.
You were helping someone sell umbrellas at the roadside stalls, and as I passed by in my carriage and saw that it was you, I couldn’t help but stop the carriage.
I just wanted to see you one more time.”
She listened quietly, knowing that he had more to say, and therefore she did not interrupt.
He continued, “My moneybag was stolen, and you caught Lai Tou, holding my moneybag in your hands, but I wasn’t in a hurry to take it back immediately because I wanted to see you again under that pretense.
But I didn’t expect you to have brought Xiao Qinghe with you that time.
Many times, I have thought about marrying you, but you were the legally purchased wife of the Xiao Family.
At first, I thought you’d been with the three men of the Xiao Family…
as a man, I couldn’t stand the thought of my woman being with other men, let alone three.
Yet, you were their lawful wife.
With all of these complications, I could only keep my love for you in my heart.”
She picked up the iron clamp beside the brazier and placed a piece of charcoal into it, “Is there anything else?”
“After the first time I saw you, you’d unintentionally come to my mind,” he said painfully.
“But even if I, Jin Xun, am a scoundrel, I couldn’t steal another man’s wife.
Even after you got married, my thoughts and dreams were filled with you, and only now do I realize that I’ve fallen deeply in love with you.”
His words came from the depths of his heart, but she didn’t even twitch an eyebrow, “Big Boss Jin, I’m married now.
Since you’re not a scoundrel, then continue to uphold your integrity and don’t covet another man’s wife, please leave.”
“Su Qingyue, it was my fault before, give me a chance, and I won’t be concerned about anything anymore…”
She stirred the coals in the basin with the iron clamp to rekindle the fire before she looked up at him, “Don’t make it sound as if you have such deep feelings for me.
When we met, although you knew I was the wife jointly purchased by the Xiao Family’s three sons, you later also knew I hadn’t consummated my marriage with them.
With your intelligence, you certainly guessed that it was impossible for me to be a wife to several men.
Furthermore, you knew I was pure and unrelated to the Xiao Family before I got married.
You even sent your servant Ji to fetch me, which shows you had investigated my situation thoroughly.”
She smiled wryly, “I’m well aware of what’s on your mind.
