Chapter 305: Chapter 305: Unraveling the Inner Conflicts_1

Seeing how thoroughly Bo’s father understood the situation, Xia Qingtian truly felt relieved.

"Grandpa..." She couldn’t help but raise her thumb to him, praising, "Grandpa, you really are the most insightful elder in this world."

Bo’s father couldn’t help but laugh at this.

Xia Qingtian turned to the police officer who was arresting Chen Momo, "Officer, we won’t interfere with your duties, you should take her to the station."

"Chen Momo, reflect on your actions in prison. Accept reform, if you live long enough to be released, don’t do harm again." Bo’s father left Chen Momo with those final words.

Chen Momo had listened to Bo’s father and Xia Qingtian’s conversation.

Her last glimmer of hope shattered, she knew she couldn’t change what was happening. There was no one in the world who could help her.

Even if she was unwilling, it was useless.

At the same time, she no longer needed to repress her own nature.

"Hahaha..." she laughed like a madwoman, intending to release all the hatred accumulated in her heart.

"You old fool, even at this moment, you’re still pretending to be the good guy? I don’t regret what I did at all, no..."

"Who says I don’t have regrets? I do. However, it’s not because I killed Qian Wenbin or targeted Xia Qingtian, but because I wasn’t ruthless enough."

"When I drugged you before, I should not have been merciful. I should have added more to it, enough to kill you on the spot."

After saying this, she turned her resentment-filled gaze towards Xia Qingtian and Bo Jingyan.

"And you two, don’t dream about a future without me causing trouble. I remember today, I will seek revenge, I promise you that!!!"

"Xia Qingtian, watch out for the bastard in your belly..."

"Uh..."

Xia Qingtian couldn’t take it anymore and didn’t want to listen to her nonsense. She grabbed a napkin from the table, bundled it up, and shoved it into Chen Momo’s incessant mouth, interrupting her.

With handcuffs on, Chen Momo and the police’s grip on her arm, she was unable to remove the napkin from her mouth.

Xia Qingtian finally felt a little better when it became quiet.

She slapped Chen Momo’s face lightly. With a tone teeming with contempt, she said, "You want revenge, even against Jingyan and me. But can you even get out of prison? "

"You’ve committed intentional homicide. If nothing changes, you’ll spend the rest of your life in prison. If your actions are found even more deplorable, you might be sentenced to death. You’ll have to wait until the next life to get your revenge."

"If I were you, I’d strive for a lesser sentence. Living a whole life in prison is better than death, isn’t it?"

These words made Chen Momo shiver.

She didn’t want to show weakness in front of Xia Qingtian, but she couldn’t help her fear from rising to her eyes.

She... she doesn’t want to die!!!

"Mmm mmm mmm..." Chen Momo tried to say something, but with the napkin in her mouth, she couldn’t make a sound.

With that, the police took her away.

This matter was finally settled.

After Bo Jingyan paid the bill, they left the restaurant and returned to the old house.

Bo’s father was a bit tired and went back to his room to rest.

Bo Jingyan and Xia Qingtian didn’t leave, they decided to stay at the house to spend time with Bo’s father.

"What’s wrong? You seemed a bit down ever since we left the restaurant." Bo Jingyan held Xia Qingtian’s hand as they took a walk, he saw her silence and asked.

Xia Qingtian was a bit tired from walking, so she found a place to sit.

"Nothing, just a little tired." She forced a slight smile.

No sooner than she finished speaking, a large hand supported her chin, forcing her to look up.

"Lying!" Bo Jingyan’s deep eyes stared at her, as though he could see right through her.

Feeling helpless, Xia Qingtian knew she couldn’t hide it from him.

"Alright..." she decided to confess, "Now that we’ve cleared up everything, and I know that the baby Chen Momo is carrying isn’t yours, but the thought that the two of you were once..."

She didn’t finish what she was saying, it was like a fishbone stuck in her throat.

Xia Qingtian knew that it was a long time ago and making an issue of it again wouldn’t be helpful. Yet, maybe because she was pregnant, she was a bit sensitive and couldn’t help but be a little bothered.

She took a deep breath, saying, "Give me a couple of days, I’ll adjust."

Bo Jingyan’s face fell a bit dark. There were some things he didn’t want to justify too much, because it sounded like he was lying, but she seemed quite bothered.

He sighed, pulling Xia Qingtian into his embrace.

"I’m sorry, that time with Chen Momo was an accident..." He didn’t know if explaining to Xia Qingtian would make her feel better, but he decided to try anyway.

So, Bo Jingyan told her about being drunk at his father’s birthday banquet and mistaking Chen Momo for her.

"I know it sounds like an excuse, but I swear, that night I thought it was you. But when I woke up the next day, Chen Momo was the one lying next to me."

After he finished speaking, he waited for a while but Xia Qingtian didn’t respond.

He lowered his head and saw that Xia Qingtian was staring at him with an astonished expression.

Bo Jingyan found Xia Qingtian’s gaze a bit strange, "What happened?"

Xia Qingtian’s heart was beating fast, her throat dry. With a raspy voice, she asked, "You’re saying that you mistook Chen Momo for me at grandpa’s birthday party?"

"Yes."

Upon hearing this, Xia Qingtian understood the extent of their misunderstanding.

She grabbed Bo Jingyan’s hand, telling him, "No, that night it was really me who was with you. But later, my stomach started to hurt and since you were deep asleep, I didn’t want to disturb you, so I went to the hospital alone."

Upon hearing this, Bo Jingyan was also taken aback.

"But didn’t you tell my Grandpa that after you took me to the room, you left after taking care of me for a while?" He asked, frowning.

Xia Qingtian blushed, "Our actions that night were a bit too intense and I ended up endangering the baby. How could I tell Grandpa that? So, I had to make up an excuse."

"I thought you remembered everything, so when I wanted to talk to you about it, you seemed unhappy. I thought you didn’t want to take responsibility, so I didn’t bring it up again."

"I thought the person that night was Chen Momo, and I thought I had done something to betray you." Bo Jingyan explained, "That’s why, I didn’t want to mention it."
