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 soone 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 ti.”
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 imdiately because I wanted to see you again under that pretense.
But I didn’t expect you to have brought Xiao Qinghe with you that ti.
Many tis, 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 n of the Xiao Family…
as a man, I couldn’t stand the thought of my woman being with other n, 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 ti I saw you, you’d unintentionally co 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 ca 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 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 .
When we t, 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 to be a wife to several n.
Furthermore, you knew I was pure and unrelated to the Xiao Family before I got married.
You even sent your servant Ji to fetch , which shows you had investigated my situation thoroughly.”
She smiled wryly, “I’m well aware of what’s on your mind.
You do have so affection for , but to you, I’m like chicken ribs—tasteless, but a pity to discard.

After all, you’re a large rich rchant in this country, with officials in the capital even eager to have you as a son-in-law.
Marrying an average-looking village girl who has been sold twice, even if I still retained my purity at that ti, wouldn’t have been appropriate to be your wife.”
“So, you’ve guessed my thoughts so clearly.” He didn’t deny it, “But still, I sent Ji to fetch you, and I made it clear that it was to make you the main wife, yet you refused.”
“Right,” she said with a smile, “sending a servant to fetch and not coming yourself shows how little I really ant to you.”
“I was just held up with sothing at that ti…”
“No more excuses,” she said.
“No one in your family had died or was injured, what could be more important than a lifelong event?”
“I…”
“You simply thought I would gladly follow your servant to associate myself with you, Big Boss Jin.” Her emotions remained flat, “I didn’t go, and that must have disappointed you, Big Boss Jin.”
