The CEO’s Unkown Wife
Chapter 139 - 139 139 She Is Just a Stand-In_1

Chapter 139: Chapter 139: She Is Just a Stand-In_1 Chapter 139: Chapter 139: She Is Just a Stand-In_1 Xia Qingtian was being driven to the point of exasperation.

But she felt powerless to retaliate against Bo Jingyan.

“Fine, I’ll learn!” She clenched her teeth in a tone of surrender.

Coming up next.

Bo Jingyan cradled Xia Qingtian in his arms, showing her step by step on how to fish.

Shen Yaxuan observed Xia Qingtian’s tightly furrowed brows, a single dark thought passing in his eyes.

Chen Momo’s eyes were burning with jealousy.

She was thoroughly frustrated.

Why had Bo shao rejected her, but was willingly going out of his way to teach Xia Qingtian.

And Xia Qingtian appeared to be reluctant about the whole thing.

Chen Momo instantly felt irritated by Xia Qingtian’s attitude.

She snorted in annoyance, stomping her foot in frustration.

She abruptly turned her head, adopting an ‘out of sight, out of mind’ mindset.

When Shen Yaxuan heard the noise, he glanced at Chen Momo and happened to catch her pulling back her angry gaze.

He raised his eyebrow, a thoughtful look appearing in his eyes.

Under Bo Jingyan’s guidance, Xia Qingtian picked up the process fairly quickly.

She even managed to catch a tiny baby fish.

The fish was small and had to be thrown back into the lake, but she still felt a sense of accomplishment.

Suddenly…

A mobile phone started to ring.

The call belonged to Shen Yaxuan.

When he glanced at the caller ID and saw it was his grandmother calling, he knew better than to ignore it.

After telling Bo Jingyan, he moved to another place to answer the call.

Xia Qingtian watched Shen Yaxuan’s retreating figure.

It caused her heart to stir slightly.

With Shen Yaxuan off on the phone and Bo Jingyan fishing here, the two of them were finally separated.

Wasn’t this the opportunity she had been looking for?

Thinking about this, Xia Qingtian clutched her stomach and turned to Bo Jingyan.

“Bo shao, I am not feeling too well, I need to go to the bathroom.”

Bo Jingyan pointed her in the right direction.

“The bathrooms are 500 meters ahead, just make a left turn.”

“I see.” Xia Qingtian nodded.

Just as a precaution to avoid potential unforeseen circumstances, such as–

If Bo Jingyan decided to come looking for her.

Xia Qingtian called out to Chen Momo, giving her a cue.

“Momo, I’m not feeling well, I need to go to the toilet, you can stay here and accompany Bo shao to fish.”

After saying that, she gave Chen Momo a frenzied series of signals with her eyes.

When Chen Momo heard it, she knew instantly that this was an opportunity for her to be alone with Bo Jingyan.

Her upset mood was instantly relieved.

“I understand, go ahead.” She urged Xia Qingtian to leave as soon as possible, so she wouldn’t stand in the way anymore.

Finally, Xia Qingtian could leave at ease.

As soon as she left, only Bo Jingyan and Chen Momo were left by the lake.

Chen Momo turned towards Bo Jingyan with a coy expression. “Bo shao, I realized that I never got the chance to thank you properly for what you did that day.”

“What are you talking about?” Bo Jingyan looked at her blankly.

“It was at the bar.”

“Thanks to you, I was not taken advantage of that day.” After saying that, Chen Momo seemed to think of something and quickly added, “I did as you told and quit that job at the bar.”

“I’ve been remembering your kindness all these days, so would you give me the opportunity to thank you with a meal?”

Chen Momo thought that Bo Jingyan’s cold attitude towards her was because he had forgotten about the incident at the bar.

She brought it up intentionally, to remind Bo Jingyan of their encounter at the bar and to ask him out for a meal.

She thought it was an excellent strategy, killing two birds with one stone.

Indeed, Bo Jingyan had forgotten about the incident.

Only when Chen Momo mentioned it did he remember it.

But he had no intention of doing it, he rejected her without hesitation.

“It’s not necessary…”

“Bo shao, please allow me to treat you to a meal, to thank you properly. I don’t like owing people favours, it would make me uneasy.” Chen Momo insisted.

How could she not seize such a great opportunity?

Seeing the determination on Chen Momo’s face, Bo Jingyan furrowed his brows.

“If you really want to say thanks, then thank Qingtian. If you want to treat someone to a meal, invite her.”

Chen Momo’s expression froze on her face.

Confused, she asked, “Why?”

Bo Jingyan gave her an honest answer.

“Because the only reason I came to your aid that day was because I mistook you for my wife, Shen Qing. I wouldn’t have interfered if I had not mistaken you for Xia Qingtian.”

The words hit Chen Momo like a bolt of lightning.

What?

The romantic memory of being saved by a hero that she had been cherishing was actually destined for Xia Qingtian?

She had been riding on Xia Qingtian’s coattails, to have that precious memory?

She had been mistaken all along.

Bo Jingyan didn’t save her because he had feelings for her.

Him saving her!

Giving her money to spend!!!

She couldn’t accept this absurd logic.

At that moment, Chen Momo felt like a fool, her face burning with embarrassment.

But she didn’t leave.

Even knowing the truth about that day, she still had feelings for Bo Jingyan, she still wanted to be his woman.

She desired wealth and fame, desired to rely on Bo Jingyan to help the Chen family rise again, to re-enter high society, realise a class leap.

She wanted to obtain everything she desired.

Chen Momo’s embarrassment quickly turned into naked ambition.

She was determined to have the man before her!!!

Bo Jingyan didn’t care how Chen Momo was feeling or what she was thinking.

After clarifying everything, he continued fishing peacefully, occasionally checking the time, waiting for Xia Qingtian’s return.

Meanwhile.

As soon as she had left the lakeside, Xia Qingtian followed in the direction that Shen Yaxuan had taken.

Soon.

She found Shen Yaxuan who had just ended his phone call and was about to go back to Bo Jingyan.

She immediately stepped forward and blocked his way.

Upon seeing her, a surge of softness and affection flashed in Shen Yaxuan’s eyes.

“Qingtian, is there something you need?”

Thinking about the question she was going to ask, Xia Qingtian couldn’t help but feel nervous.

Her lips were a little dry from anxiety.

“Um, is your wound getting better?”

She felt embarrassed to ask directly, so she planned to start with something else and only ask her main question when the conversation became less abrupt.

Shen Yaxuan was surprised that she was still concerned about his wound. He was touched.

“It was just a minor injury, it has healed.”

Fearing that Xia Qingtian wouldn’t believe him and continue to worry, he even patted his wound to prove that he was completely healed.

“That’s good.” Xia Qingtian pursed her lips.

“Anyway, I have to thank you, you have helped me many times.”

Whether it was the time she was accosted by thugs.

Or the time she was locked in the beach villa, Shen Yaxuan had always been there to help her.

She knew that it was no coincidence that old Master Bo showed up at the beach villa that day, it was all thanks to Shen Yaxuan’s intervention.
