Chapter 123: Chapter 123: Is It Good or Not_1
The following day.
Xia Qingtian, now a free woman, happily returned to her office.
She made a point of finding Gu Jinchuan, and sincerely thanked him.
Seeing that she was safe, Gu Jinchuan completely heaved a sigh of relief. He asked no more questions, ntioning nothing about the fact that he went to find her that evening but found no one.
A sense of pressure lifted from Xia Qingtian’s shoulders as well.
Because she didn’t know how she could explain it.
That afternoon.
Xia Qingtian went to et a prospective client.
She was lucky enough to successfully secure a contract.
Checking the ti, it was almost ti to end her workday.
The location of her eting with the client was quite far. If she was to return to the office now, by the ti she would arrive, it would already be ti to go ho.
Xia Qingtian decided then and there to bring the contract to the office the next day.
She would go straight ho today and make a delicious al for Bo Jingyan to please him a bit more.
After making the decision, she was walking while pulling out her phone, preparing to send Bo Jingyan a ssage.
That morning, he specifically ntioned he would pick her up after work.
Now that she was planning to go ho early, she needed to tell Bo Jingyan so that he wouldn’t co to the office to pick her up after work.
That way, he wouldn’t make a fruitless trip and be upset.
As Xia Qingtian was crafting her ssage, all of a sudden…
Her phone rang, indicating an incoming call.
It startled her a bit.
Upon checking, she saw that her best friend, Chen Momo, was calling.
Xia Qingtian answered the call.
Only then did she find out that Chen Momo and her brother Chen Xuanyu had returned from their mother’s funeral, out of town. Chen Momo also brought back gifts and wanted to et her.
Chen Momo ntioned the eting location.
Xia Qingtian checked it.
Surprisingly, the location Chen Momo had suggested was not far from where she currently was.
She imdiately agreed to et.
After hanging up the phone, she quickly headed to the eting location.
But she still had a nagging feeling that she had forgotten sothing.
She didn’t rember what it was until she saw Chen Momo.
Upon seeing Chen Momo, Xia Qingtian completely put the matter out of her mind.
Concerned that Chen Momo hadn’t yet moved on from the grief of her mother’s death, Xia Qingtian wanted to comfort her, but found her to be far stronger than she had imagined.
Chen Momo had already moved on from her mother’s death and even brought gifts for her. She also shared so fresh experiences she had in her hotown.
Xia Qingtian listened attentively and gave her full support.
After Chen Momo finished sharing, she began inquiring about her best friend’s current situation.
“By the way, how are things going with your contractual husband?”
“We’re doing great.” Xia Qingtian lightly responded, “we are living together now.”
As for the heart-stopping happenings of their recent past, it is better not to ntion them to avoid worrying Chen Momo.
“So, have you dropped the idea of divorce?” Chen Momo asked, surprised.
The expression on Xia Qingtian’s face turned complex.
It’s no longer within her power to divorce at will right now!
Given Bo Jingyan’s domineering character, if she dared ntion divorce again, he just might break her leg and lock her up in a place where no one knows.
The most important thing is that she knows Bo Jingyan loves her, which makes her hesitate when it cos to ntioning divorce.
Because she loves Bo Jingyan too.
“I’m not planning to divorce anymore, our relationship is in a good place right now.” Xia Qingtian answered vaguely.
She didn’t want to continue discussing her and Bo Jingyan’s relationship, so she quickly changed the topic.
“What about you? What’s going on with the guy you t in the bar, the one who ca to your aid?”
“How are things progressing with you two?”
Chen Momo’s expression turned bitter, “I’ve been out of town, haven’t I? So there hasn’t been much progress. Plus, he’s not an ordinary guy, it’s not that easy to see him.”
Seeing her frustration, Xia Qingtian knew that Chen Momo’s love life wasn’t going smoothly.
She patted Chen Momo’s hand, consoling her, “Momo, you’re such a wonderful person, you’ll certainly win his heart.”
Chen Momo instantly got her spirits back, “You’re right.”
Her face filled with anticipation and longing, she said, “Once I win the big shot over, I’ll treat you and your contractual husband to dinner. If your contractual husband ever mistreats you, I’ll make sure the big shot deals with him.”
“Sure.” Xia Qingtian nodded in agreent.
While she thought that given Bo Jingyan’s status, there likely isn’t anyone who could teach him a lesson,
Seeing Chen Momo’s enthusiasm, she didn’t pour any cold water on it.
Then, Chen Momo checked the ti, “Qingtian, it’s getting late. Let’s have dinner together tonight. I saw a new barbecue place nearby, let’s go try it out, my treat.”
The mont Xia Qingtian heard Chen Momo ntion the ti, sothing imdiately ca to her mind.
“What ti is it now?” she asked, a bit alard.
“Half-past six!”
Xia Qingtian instantly felt like her world was falling apart.
Terrible!
How terrible!
She finally rembered what she had forgotten.
She had forgotten to tell Bo Jingyan that she wasn’t in the office.
“Qingtian, what’s wrong?”
Noticing Xia Qingtian’s expression, Chen Momo imdiately looked at her with worry.
“I forgot to tell him that I’m not at the office. He’s probably arrived at the office to pick
up after work by now.” Xia Qingtian explained.
Then she imdiately took out her mobile phone, preparing to call Bo Jingyan.
Chen Momo looked unperturbed, “What’s there to panic about? It’s not even a big deal!”
“You won’t understand.” Xia Qingtian didn’t have the ti to explain to Chen Momo.
Just yesterday, she had promised Bo Jingyan to notify him of her whereabouts at any ti and now she was breaking her promise.
Bo Jingyan was sure to be angry.
Before she could make the call, Bo Jingyan was already calling her.
“Xia Qingtian, where are you?” Bo Jingyan’s cold voice ca through the phone.
He was fuming right now. After finishing work today, he had turned down all social invitations just to pick Qingtian up from work, only to find that she wasn’t in the office.
Many thoughts raced through Bo Jingyan’s mind.
Had Xia Qingtian made all those promises to him yesterday just to trick him into leaving the seaside villa?
The mont he thought of this, endless dark thoughts filled Bo Jingyan’s mind.
Hearing his tone, Xia Qingtian’s heart sank.
It was over.
Bo Jingyan was indeed very angry.
Fearful that he might lock her up again at the seaside villa out of anger, Xia Qingtian started her explanation.
Then she rembered that Bo Jingyan liked it when she called him husband.
“Husband…” she began sweetly.
Only then did she cautiously start explaining.
“I’m sorry, I had a client eting this afternoon. After the eting, I was planning to go straight ho and prepare dinner for you, but then I received a call from my bestie, who asked to et. It was still early, so I t her without thinking about the ti.”
“Husband, please forgive . I promise this will be the last ti, it won’t happen again.”
“Okay, husband?”
