Chapter 38: Chapter 38: I Will Make You Willingly_1
Xia Qingtian was even more confused, picking up her cell phone and glancing at the screen. She confird that this was Bo Jingyan before tentatively asking, “What are you talking about?”
Little mistress?
What little mistress?
Did he an Shen Yaxuan?
But he doesn’t even know who he is now, how could he find out about Shen Yaxuan?
That’s impossible, isn’t it?
“Shen Qing, if there’s to be a divorce, I’m the one who’ll ask for it. As for when, just wait! If you do anything during this ti that damages the reputation of the Bo family, you’re dead at!”
Bo Jingyan spoke fiercely, his tone filled with intense anger.
He didn’t mind Shen Qing’s infidelity.
After all, theirs was a contract marriage, with no foundation of emotional attachnt.
But on the matter of divorce, she trifled with him ti and ti again, even making use of his grandfather to protect her status as Mrs. Bo, which was sothing he found absolutely intolerable!
If you dare manipulate, you must be prepared to bear the consequences!
Xia Qingtian was completely dumbfounded, not comprehending the situation at all.
She moved her mouth about, trying to collect her thoughts and ask so more questions, but the sound of a hang-up ca from the phone.
The call was over?
She didn’t understand what Bo Jingyan was talking about at all!
Xia Qingtian, her complexion complex, furrowed her brows, staring at her cell phone, completely confused.
But… his main ssage was probably that he didn’t agree to the divorce, right?
Thinking this, Xia Qingtian sulkily put away her phone and sighed heavily.
She had finally made the decision to cut ties with her current life.
But now, she was back to where she started.
If Bo Jingyan doesn’t want to divorce, then let’s not divorce for the ti being…
She can only take it one step at a ti.
Xia Qingtian tossed her phone aside, lying back down on her bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, her heart uneasy and empty.
Mom, am I doing the right thing now?
If you were here, things would be so much better…
…
The next day.
The morning light was slowly falling on her.
Xia Qingtian opened her sore eyes, staring at the sunrise outside the window, and sighed softly.
She thought about her mother last night, and spent another sleepless night in sadness.
Dragging her exhausted body out of bed, Xia Qingtian was like a walking corpse, absent-mindedly going through her morning routine before changing clothes and heading out to work.
After a day of busyness.
Xia Qingtian finally made it to the end of the workday when she received a text from the butler saying the car was already waiting downstairs at her office, asking her to hurry out, as Bo Jingyan would want to have dinner in an hour.
Unable to hide the gloom in her heart, Xia Qingtian put away her phone, took several deep breaths, managing to calm down.
Downstairs, she saw the Bo family car and the driver standing in front of the car, waving at her.
Xia Qingtian walked over and got straight into the car.
Upon arriving at the villa, Xia Qingtian entered to find Bo Jingyan sitting on the sofa reading. He glanced at her as she entered, quickly lowering his head again.
Xia Qingtian steadied her emotions and headed for the kitchen.
Since she couldn’t escape this relationship for now.
She would need to continue hiding her identity as before, looking for opportunities to investigate Shen Yaxuan and confirm whether or not he was really the man from that night.
She could only take it one step at a ti.
Stepping into the luxurious kitchen, Xia Qingtian set her bag down, washing her face with cold water to chase away the fatigue.
Tying on her apron, she began to prepare the ingredients with practiced skill. She decided to make noodles for tonight’s al, as Bo Jingyan had made no particular requests.
Hearing the noise in the kitchen, Bo Jingyan looked up briefly, as though rembering sothing, and stood up to go over.
Xia Qingtian was busying herself in the kitchen, swiftly preparing the eggs and slicing up tomatoes for garnish.
At the corner of her eye, she noticed a shadow enter the room. Upon confirming the person, she continued with her tasks.
Bo Jingyan leaned casually against the kitchen door, watching her skilled movents. The aroma of the cooking soon found its way into his nostrils, stirring his hunger.
Ever since he had tasted Xia Qingtian’s cooking.
He found it increasingly difficult to swallow anything else.
During his last three-day business trip, he barely ate anything.
No matter how delicious the als and pastries cooked by others were, they tasted like wax to him.
Only Xia Qingtian’s cooking could conjure up a normal taste for him.
With that in mind, Bo Jingyan spoke coolly, “I need to go on a business trip in two days.”
“Really? And for how long?”
Hearing that he would be away for a while, Xia Qingtian’s actions of preparing the food faltered for a mont. She turned her head and asked.
“Half a month,” replied Bo Jingyan nonchalantly.
Xia Qingtian was taken aback, slightly surprised, an irrepressible joy in her eyes.
Has happiness co too suddenly?
If he’s going away for half a month, doesn’t that an she just got an unexpected half-month vacation?!
After saying his piece, Bo Jingyan looked up, fixing his gaze on Xia Qingtian’s face. His deep voice sounded again, emanating a sense of assertiveness, “This ti, you’re going on the business trip with .”
Without Xia Qingtian, what would he eat for half a month?
Given his past experiences, he would have to take her with him this ti.
Xia Qingtian hadn’t even been happy for a second when she heard his words. Her facial expression instantly changed.
“No, I have work at Gu’s company, I can’t accompany you!” Xia Qingtian imdiately refused, asserting her stance.
If she disappeared for half a month, it would be hard to justify to her senior! Besides, she wasn’t exactly willing to be on an extended trip with Bo Jingyan.
Hearing her refusal, Bo Jingyan’s brow furrowed in discontent. His face imdiately darkened, his gaze fixing directly on her.
Seeing him like this, Xia Qingtian was worried that he might get angry, and force her to go.
She swallowed nervously and then explained, “Didn’t we agree in the beginning? I will continue to work normally at Gu’s company, and be responsible for preparing three als a day at your place. You should not interfere with my personal life and force
to leave.”
“…”
Bo Jingyan frowned unhappily, watching her for a while before eventually shifting his gaze away. Without saying a word, he turned and walked out of the kitchen.
Seeing him leave, Xia Qingtian’s tensed body finally relaxed. She let out a light sigh and went back to preparing the al.
Thank goodness Bo Jingyan did not force her.
But his reaction just now…he probably agreed, right?
Half an hour later.
Xia Qingtian finished making the noodles and brought them to the dining table.
Seeing Bo Jingyan still sitting on the sofa reading, she hesitated for a mont, about to go and call him over, when Bo Jingyan stood up by himself.
Bo Jingyan turned around. For a few seconds, both of their gazes t in mid-air.
“Mr. Bo, dinner is ready…” Xia Qingtian looked at him, awkwardly ntioning it.
Bo Jingyan nodded and walked to the dining table. Taking up his chopsticks, he suddenly asked, seemingly out of the blue, “How are you doing with your work at Gu’s company?”
“Pretty good.” Not sure why he was asking, Xia Qingtian chose the safest answer, not daring to say more.
Bo Jingyan gave a slight nod, not saying anything more, but a plan had already ford in his mind.
This ti on the business trip, he was determined to bring Xia Qingtian along.
He had a way to make her willingly co along with him.
