"Ahem..." Xia Qingqian cleared her throat, blinked a few times, and looked at Beitang Huan, saying, "Miss Beitang Huan, are you... are you apologizing to me?"
Beitang Huan's face turned red with embarrassment; this was the first time she had ever bowed her head to apologize to a stranger.
"Then... then will you accept my apology?" Beitang Huan frowned as she looked at Xia Qingqian. Xia Qingqian's face didn't look good, even with sunlight shining directly on it, it couldn't hide the pallor. It was her that she ended up in this state.
"Hehe, Miss Beitang Huan, this is not your fault, I never held you responsible, from start to finish I never blamed you. It's my fault, I shouldn't have gotten involved with your brother. My presence caused you trouble, it's me who should apologize to you..." Xia Qingqian said all of this in one breath, feeling a slight pain in her lower abdomen. She reached out to gently massage her abdomen.
