Chapter 364: Chapter 364: Admission to the emergency room_1

"It’s not just good, it’s superb", Xia Qingtian didn’t hold anything back and shared everything that had transpired today and recently, "So you really did give me a huge satisfaction."

The more she spoke, the happier she became, she withheld it and stood on her toes to peck Bo Jingyan’s slender lips.

"This is my reward for you," she happily said.

After the kiss, she tried to pull away but was firmly held by someone appearing to be very possessive, pulling her back into his arms and pressing their bodies tightly together.

Xia Qingtian pushed against his chest, "First let go of me."

Bo Jingyan didn’t let go, but instead held even tighter. His deep gaze showed that he was still not satisfied, "It’s still not enough!"

"Why are you so greedy?" Xia Qingtian glared at him.

"Hmm," Bo Jingyan confirmed, not denying but rather candidly admitting, "I can never have enough of you."

After saying that, before Xia Qingtian could react, he picked her up and quickly carried her back to the bedroom.

By the time Xia Qingtian came back to her senses, she had already been laid on the bed.

She put her hand on his chest, blushed and said, "Hey, didn’t you say you are full and needed some exercise?"

"Switching to a different form of exercise doesn’t sound bad either." Bo Jingyan’s voice was husky, betraying a seductive charm.

As soon as the words left his lips, he bent down and claimed her lips with his.

Soon, nothing but intimacy was left in the room.

...

A few days later, Cheng Bingbing was discharged from the hospital.

Xia Qingtian then started to bring her to the best beauty salons, hoping to find a way to remove the scar on her face.

But progress was not smooth.

Every beautician, on seeing Cheng Bingbing’s face, expressed innocent pity. The scar was too deep to remove easily.

Xia Qingtian was pondering if she should take her abroad when she suddenly received a call from the hospital. Xia Guohua was reportedly critically ill and had been rushed to the emergency room.

Xia Qingtian immediately hurried over.

By the time she arrived, Bo Jingyan was already waiting outside the emergency room.

Seeing her pale face, he quickly hugged her into his arms and comforted her softly, "Don’t worry, good people are always safe; he will be fine."

Xia Qingtian didn’t push him away and tried to draw warmth and a sense of safety from his embrace.

After what seemed like a long wait, the emergency room door finally opened and the doctor exited. Xia Qingtian immediately asked, "Doctor, how is my father’s condition?"

The doctor removed the mask from his face, nodding gravely, "The patient is no longer in critical condition."

Xia Qingtian heaved a great sigh of relief.

But Bo Jingyan didn’t miss the expression on the doctor’s face, realizing he hadn’t told them everything yet.

He then asked, "The patient’s condition has been stable all this while, hasn’t it? How did he suddenly get critically ill?"

On hearing this, Xia Qingtian became anxious once again.

"Has his condition worsened?"

The doctor organized his words before speaking, "Mr. Xia’s critical condition is not due to his liver but cardiac arrest."

Xia Qingtian’s breath hitched for a moment, "But my father’s heart is healthy, he doesn’t have heart disease."

"Indeed...", the doctor adjusted his glasses and explained, "Mr. Xia had a cardiac arrest due to being poisoned with something called cantharidin."

Cantharidin?

What was that?

Why does the name sound so strange?

The doctor explained cantharidin, a black insect was both poisonous and also used in traditional Chinese medicine, and hence must be used very carefully.

Xia Qingtian understood what cantharidin was, but how did Xia Guohua get poisoned by it?

After explaining, the doctor left.

And the pale-faced Xia Guohua was moved from the emergency room back to a regular ward, but he remained unconscious.

Xia Qingtian felt that there was more to Xia Guohua’s poisoning.

Apparently, Bo Jingyan thought the same, so he ordered someone to investigate the matter.

Luckily, cantharidin is highly poisonous and Xia Guohua’s poisoning took effect immediately. It only required an investigation into what happened and who he met that day.

Cantharidin is also quite rare so there aren’t many people who buy it, and all the purchasers are on record.

Therefore, the investigation wasn’t difficult at all.

The results were out by the next day.

Soon, Xia Qingtian found a common name in the list of people who came into contact with Xia Guohua and the cantharidin purchase records.

Shi Qian?

It was Shi Qian again!!!

Seeing Shi Qian’s name, everything suddenly became clear to her.

Shi Qian must have been trying to take revenge for losing her resources.

Remembering that Xia Guohua had to be rushed to the emergency room due to cardiac arrest, Xia Qingtian’s face turned grim.

She wouldn’t let this slide.

She’d make Shi Qian pay for this!

Thinking so, Xia Qingtian called the film crew and found out that there was no scene involving Shi Qian that day, so she didn’t go to the crew.

Usually, when Shi Qian wasn’t filming, she would stay in the old house.

As expected, as soon as she arrived at the old house, she found Shi Qian leisurely reading a book.

Hearing footsteps, Shi Qian looked up and seeing Xia Qingtian, revealed a subtly amused smile.

"Sister Qingtian..." She was about to rattle Xia Qingtian about her father’s near-death experience, but before she could utter a word, she was viciously slapped on her face.

She was completely taken aback.

"Xia Qingtian, how dare you slap me?" Shi Qian, covering her burning cheek, looked at Xia Qingtian in disbelief.

But Xia Qingtian didn’t care to listen to her excuses or see her innocent act again.

She kicked Shi Qian hard on the knee.

Shi Qian fell to the ground with a thud, Xia Qingtian then grabbed her hair, forcing her to look up and meet her eyes.

"After doing all that, do you not have any idea what you did wrong? You have the audacity to ask me..." Xia Qingtian’s tone was domineering.

Shi Qian felt like her knee was shattered, her scalp and face were stinging painfully.

She tried to struggle and stand up, but Xia Qingtian held her down. She couldn’t move at all.

In her frustration, she forgot to maintain her gentle and kind image and became enraged, "Xia Qingtian, why are you acting so crazy all of a sudden?"

Xia Qingtian revealed a dangerously smile.

Then, she lifted her hand to give Shi Qian another slap, "Since you don’t know where you went wrong, then I’ll continue hitting you until you figure it out."
