Chapter 569: Chapter 569: Firm as a Mother_1

Xia Qingtian suddenly heard Bo Jingyan’s name and her heart shuddered uncontrollably.

It took all her self-control not to betray her emotions.

She put up an unconcerned facade,"Mmm, don’t worry, I’ve let him go."

"That’s good." Cheng Bingbing finally reassured.

"Well, since everything is settled, we shouldn’t stick around here. If someone saw us they might think we’re planning to commit suicide." Xia Qingtian joked.

Upon hearing this, Cheng Bingbing felt that Qingtian made a good point.

She had run up to the rooftop just because she felt confused and wanted to escape, to be alone, not thinking much more.

"Then let’s hurry." She got up swiftly, seemingly afraid to trouble others.

After leaving the hospital, Xia Qingtian took Cheng Bingbing home.

Cheng Bingbing’s mental knot seemed to have untied and perhaps due to her preparation to become a mother, even with the bags under her eyes, she looked thoroughly refreshed.

A determined expression surfaced on her. This might be the so-called women are weak, but mothers are strong.

Xia Qingtian suddenly felt reassured.

Cheng Bingbing is becoming stronger and stronger now. For the sake of the child in her womb, she will become even stronger than before, and no difficulty will defeat her.

"Then I’ll go first. Take good care of yourself and call me if you need anything." She advised before leaving.

Cheng Bingbing had a gentle smile on her face, "Qingtian, don’t worry. I’ll be back to filming tomorrow. Even if I leave the entertainment industry, I can accept it without regret. But I still want to give my child the best life possible. So, if possible, I would actually prefer to stay."

"The movie directed by Zhao would be my bargaining chip to stay. I’ll work even harder."

Xia Qingtian understood her meaning. If Cheng Bingbing performs well in the film and wins international awards, directors will still appreciate her and offer her roles, even if she doesn’t have a fan base or internet influence.

Even more, she could promote herself in the international entertainment industry, where more opportunities exist.

Seeing that Cheng Bingbing had figured everything out, she didn’t say anything more.

"Good." Xia Qingtian nodded and left.

When she returned to the villa, she heard An’an crying.

An’an is usually a very obedient child and seldom cries.

Hearing him crying now made Xia Qingtian’s heart clench and she immediately went to find An’an.

When she got there, An’an was still crying bitterly.

"What’s wrong with An’an?" She asked worriedly.

The babysitter said to her, "Young Master hasn’t been feeling well for a few days, he’s had a slight fever."

Xia Qingtian’s brows furrowed instantly, "What? An’an hasn’t been feeling well?"

While speaking, she took An’an, who was crying with a red face and nose, from the babysitter with a pained look on her face.

It was strange that An’an, who had been crying nonstop just now, stopped crying when he was in her arms, burying his face in her neck with a look of discomfort and dependence.

Xia Qingtian felt An’an’s dependency, and her heart melted.

While she was soft-hearted towards An’an, she was also annoyed with the nurse and babysitter, with an unhappy look on her face, "Since An’an is feeling unwell, why didn’t anyone tell me?"

She’s An’an’s mother and their employer, she had no idea about such an important matter.

If she hadn’t heard An’an crying just now, would she not even know that her son is sick?

Thinking about this made her anger burn like wildfire.

"We didn’t not want to tell you, it’s just that you’ve been in a bad mood these few days, you’ve been absent-minded and have been keeping yourself in the room all the time," the babysitter explained helplessly, "So, we didn’t want to disturb you."

"Also, little Master only has a low-grade fever that doesn’t require medication, physical cooling is enough."

Upon hearing this, Xia Qingtian froze. When she processed this information, all her anger dissipated like a punctured balloon.

She suddenly understood.

Even though the babysitter and the nanny have been negligent, she had to admit that she bore the brunt of the responsibility.

If she truly cared for An’an, even if the babysitter and nanny didn’t tell her, she should have been aware of her son’s discomfort these past few days.

Xia Qingtian stroked An’an’s little face.

"An’an, how are you doing now?" She asked, showing her concern.

Seeing that she wasn’t continue to be angry, the babysitter heaved a sigh of relief and reported to her, "His fever has subsided now but we still need to keep a close watch on him, worried about the recurrence of the illness."

Xia Qingtian relaxed a little, "That’s a relief."

Seeing how quiet and well-behaved An’an was in Xia Qingtian’s arms, the babysitter couldn’t help but advise, "My lady, please don’t blame me for being overly concerned."

"We know that you are a strong woman and that you are very busy with work, but no matter how busy you are, you need to spend more time with the young master. Even though he is still small, he very much needs his mother’s company."

"It’s not you being nosy..." Xia Qingtian spoke sincerely, "Your reminder is due to your genuine concern for An’an. My neglect in the past was my fault, I will pay attention from now."

She knew that the babysitter was not being malicious.

Even if they hadn’t reminded her, they would have still received their salary, they didn’t have to say such things to upset their employer.

It wouldn’t be practical for her to abandon her work completely and take care of An’an at home all day, so entrusting An’an’s care to the babysitter was still reassuring.

Seeing her accepting their advice, the babysitter showed a sincere smile.

After self-reflection, Xia Qingtian spent the next two days taking care of An’an with the help of the nanny and babysitter, staying by An’an’s side.

With her company, An’an was obviously more obedient and cooperative when it came to taking medicine.

It took only two days for his fever to completely subside.

Xia Qingtian was truly happy and made up her mind not to be despondent because of Bo Jingyan any longer.

If Cheng Bingbing could pluck up her courage for the unborn child in her belly, why couldn’t she become stronger for An’an?

If she kept being unmotivated like she was, it wouldn’t just ruin her job but also let down An’an.

Once she came to this understanding, Xia Qingtian’s spirits lifted completely.

...

The next day.

Xia Qingtian showed up at the office with a well-groomed makeup, sunglasses, and a determined stride.

While waiting for the elevator, she encountered Huo Qilin, who was carrying a guitar.
