Chapter 957: Chapter 948: In the Name of the Father (2)

Xia Sicai found out two months ago that she was pregnant, and now she is four months along.

During these four months, everything was peaceful at first, but recently she suddenly started experiencing morning sickness and symptoms of pregnancy. However, she could not get angry with Bo Yi; she was well aware that her place in the Bo Family was secured not just by the Xia Family, but most importantly by herself and the child in her belly.

Initially, she was making a call to her mom, and somehow she vaguely learned that her father was not at the company recently. Mrs. Tong’s voice was evasive, and it was clear there was an underlying meaning.

Xia Sicai immediately understood, so she hurriedly called her dad.

When Xia Youbiao saw the name on the screen, he was stunned for a moment. He knew that Xia Siyu and Xia Sicai were arch-enemies. Xia Sicai could still put on an act, but Xia Siyu didn’t bother to hide her disdain at all. He didn’t want to upset Xia Siyu, so he had to say there was something at the company and went out to take the call.

In fact, there was nothing urgent; after getting pregnant, Xia Sicai just wanted to be pampered. In the Bo Family, she had to control her temper, but she didn’t have to do so much with her parents. She also knew her father was with Xia Siyu, so she purposely made the call longer.

Fortunately, Xia Siyu never asked about his situations, whether at home or at the company. Xia Youbiao awkwardly put away his phone and greeted Qin Baizhou: “Mr. Qin.”

“Uncle Xia, no need for formalities.” Qin Baizhou quickly stood up. After Xia Siyu fainted yesterday, Xia Youbiao was constantly concerned about his daughter’s condition, but he also noticed that Qin Baizhou was adept at handling work, quickly resolving various matters.

He paid close attention to his daughter, so he also knew about Huixing’s upcoming IPO. The man before him was one of the three major partners of Huixing, and would soon transform into a major shareholder.

If it were not for Xia Siyu’s persistent desire not to mix family with the company, he might have invested out of love for his daughter. Not for profit, but to have more say in the company, to ensure his precious daughter did not continue such dangerous work.

“Thank you for what happened yesterday.”

“Siyu is my artist, and it’s my job to look after her well,” Qin Baizhou said with a genuinely sincere smile. He actually wanted more interactions with Xia Siyu’s father, but he knew that Xia Siyu didn’t like such behavior, so he tried to make himself more noticeable at the moment.

“Moreover, Siyu and I have known each other for many years. I was the one managing her when she entered the entertainment industry. It’s just that my position in the previous company wasn’t high, and later when Siyu encountered problems, I couldn’t exert enough influence to protect her. Now that I have my own company, I have more autonomy, and I am very grateful that Siyu esteemed me, continuing to stay here. Actually, we’re not just colleagues now, but friends. Right, Siyu?”

Qin Baizhou emphasized the word “friends,” and Xia Siyu did not object. Though his tone was somewhat ingratiating, the basic truth remained intact.

Xia Youbiao, having been in business for many years, could see Qin Baizhou’s intentions at a glance. However, he felt indifferent; it was just another rival for Bo Yan. Currently, Xia Siyu looked naive, not knowing whether she was aware of Qin Baizhou’s affection but pretending not to know, or truly oblivious. Anyway, it’s sometimes beneficial to be carefree, unbothered by things as long as you are firm in your convictions.

In the midst of their conversation, Bo Yan also pushed the door open and entered.
