Chapter 183: Chapter 183 She Made a Move_1 Chapter 183: Chapter 183 She Made a Move_1 That day.

Xia Qingtian was at home doing nothing, so she watched some tutorial videos online on making snacks, planning to prepare some for Bo Jingyan and his father to try.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

Xia Qingtian was still focused on the tutorial and didn’t check the caller ID. She casually answered the phone.

Soon enough, Xia Guohua’s voice came from the other end.

Xia Guohua asked her over the phone to return to Apricot Forest Bay, as he had something important to discuss with her.

After that, he hung up the phone promptly, not giving her a chance to refuse.

Regardless, Xia Guohua was still her biological father. She might be able to disregard the Xia family business and its management, but she could not ignore her own father.

Xia Qingtian had to reluctantly shut off the half-watched tutorial and informed Butler Wang that she was going back to Apricot Forest Bay.

Seeing Xia Qingtian’s departing figure, Butler Wang remembered the young master’s instruction to report every detail of Qingtian’s activities to him every day.

Especially if she were to go out, he must be informed immediately.

Butler Wang instantly took out his phone and reported to Bo Jingyan that Xia Qingtian was returning to Apricot Forest Bay.

At this point, Xia Qingtian had already returned to Apricot Forest Bay.

This time when she returned, Xia Guohua was surprisingly not scowling at her as usual. Instead, he was excessively solicitous, asking her how she had been and if she had been wronged.

Xia Qingtian found his attitude a bit strange. After chatting for a while, she came to realize that he knew about her pregnancy and believed she had entirely secured her footing in the Bo family.

Thus, he brought up once again the issue of the Bo family investing in the Xia family’s company.

Xia Qingtian frowned. Xia Guohua usually wasn’t interested in her life, let alone after she’d said she would not ask Bo Jingyan to help the Xia Family’s company. He completely ignored her, treating her as if he had never had a daughter.

How could he suddenly know about her pregnancy?

She made inquiries and learned that he had met Chen Momo at a reception where he was seeking investment. It was Chen Momo who told him about it.

Chen Momo also informed him that Bo’s father had bought several buildings and factories for Xia Qingtian and her unborn child.

Now that Xia Qingtian had prospered, he could ask his daughter for as much money as he wanted. There was no need for him to struggle to raise investment capital.

Hearing that this event was related to Chen Momo, Xia Qingtian’s brow furrowed instantly.

She strongly felt that the situation was not so simple.

“Qingtian, the company really can’t hold up anymore. All you have to do is lift a finger, and you can save both your father and the company,” Xia Guohua implored her earnestly.

Xia Qingtian’s thoughts were interrupted.

“Dad, I won’t take anything from the Bo family. I’m just a common working-class person and don’t have any savings,” she decided that it would be better to deal with the current issue at hand first and therefore clearly voiced her intention.

“If you want to save the company, you’ll have to find a way on your own. If you are incapable of turning the tides and reviving the company, it only shows that you’re not cut out for business. The Bo family can help you once, but they can’t help you for a lifetime. The company will eventually crumble.”

“You ungrateful girl! How dare you talk to me like this!”

Seeing that he had used all his polite words and she was still unwilling to help, Xia Guohua suddenly threw off the mask of a good father and got infuriated to the point of raising his hand to hit her.

Xia Qingtian stood her ground without dodging or defending herself. She simply reminded him calmly.

“You need to think carefully about the consequences before you act. Not only am I your daughter right now, but I am also the daughter-in-law of the Bo family. If you dare to hit me, the Bo family will not let you off. Additionally, it will exacerbate the difficulties faced by an already struggling company.”

Xia Guohua was immediately stunned and dared not raise his hand anymore.

“Get out..”

He was so angry that he was huffing and puffing. He vented his wrath by throwing down the things from the coffee table forcefully onto the floor.

Xia Qingtian did not stay any longer and turned to leave Apricot Forest Bay.

As she exited Apricot Forest Bay, she summoned a ride booking service. The driver was three kilometers away, so she had to wait for a few more minutes.

In the interval as she waited for the car, suddenly…

“Qingtian, what a coincidence.” Someone called her name and approached her.

Xia Qingtian turned to look and found out that it was Chen Momo.

She did not show a friendly face, nor did she attend to her.

However, Chen Momo didn’t seem to mind. “Qingtian, we used to be best friends. There’s no need to make our relationship this strained,” she said.

Xia Qingtian cast her a cold glance.”From the moment you betrayed me, we were no longer friends. Also, I don’t want to be stabbed in the back by you again.”

At this moment…

Xia Qingtian’s phone rang. It turned out that the ride she had booked had arrived and was parked at the roadside not too far away.

She immediately ignored Chen Momo, intending to get into the car and return home.

Seeing that she was about to leave, Chen Momo’s eyes immediately flashed a hint of malevolence, and she threw something on the ground.

Xia Qingtian didn’t notice what was beneath her feet and stepped on it.

“Ah…” She instantly lost her balance.

She struggled to grasp at Chen Momo, trying to steady herself.

Unexpectedly, Chen Momo took a step back.

Xia Qingtian suddenly found herself reaching into thin air and ended up falling heavily onto the ground.

Before she could react, she felt a sudden violent pain in her abdomen.

Immediately afterwards, warm liquid flowed out. Xia Qingtian looked down only to discover that it was blood that had instantly dyed her white skirt red.

An overwhelming fear instantly shrouded her, making her feel as if she had fallen into hell. Her mind became chaotic, causing her to forget what reaction she should have or what expression she should display.

Until she heard a cold voice asking, “Xia Qingtian, Xia Qingtian, are you okay?”

Although the voice was cold, she felt secure, as if unlimited courage had been suddenly instilled in her, making her climb out of hell.

Xia Qingtian slowly regained consciousness, and then she realized that the person who had just called her was…

Bo Jingyan!!!

She felt like she had seized a lifesaving straw and held on tightly to Bo Jingyan’s hand. “Bo Jingyan, save my child. I can’t lose him.”

She was so frightened and emotional that her nails had dug deep into her flesh.

“Don’t be afraid. I’ll take you to the hospital right away. Everything will be alright,” Bo Jingyan didn’t display any irregularity. Instead, his voice was filled with reassurance and tenderness, providing a sense of safety.

Having said that, he carried Xia Qingtian into the car horizontally and instructed the driver to dash to the hospital as fast as possible.
