Chapter 574: Chapter 574: No Looking Back _1

Xia Qingtian tried hard to control her emotions and not be affected by Bo Jingyan.

"There’s nothing, just a reminder, the day after tomorrow is the deadline for our divorce cooling-off period." She pursed her lips, speaking in a calm and steady manner, "Remember to go with me to the Civil Affairs Bureau that day, we should get our divorce certificate."

"I disagree!" Bo Jingyan opposed without a second thought.

He did not intend to drag Xia Qingtian into a mess, but neither did he plan to divorce her.

Right now, they were still a married couple, and he could see and approach Xia Qingtian anytime he wished under the name of a husband. Once they divorced, there would truly be no relationship left between them.

He absolutely could not endure that!

Xia Qingtian coldly said, "Bo Jingyan, I’m informing you, not discussing with you, see you at the Civil Affairs Bureau the day after tomorrow."

Once she finished, she paused, feeling something familiar about her tone of voice.

After a brief pondering, she realized why it felt familiar. This was how Bo Jingyan used to talk to her. After spending so much time together, even her way of speaking was beginning to resemble him.

Bo Jingyan asked her, "Qingtian, can we not divorce?"

The person who had always been dominant now sounded unusually submissive, creating a stark contrast.

Even though Xia Qingtian was fully prepared, she still felt a hint of softness cropping up.

However, she did not compromise.

She hardened her heart and said, "No!"

Bo Jingyan heard the determination in her voice, and his heart sank.

"Really no room for reconciliation?" He spoke, "That day when I didn’t show up for our meeting, and letting Shi Qian come back into scene weren’t my intentions, I never betrayed you, nor did I betray our feelings for each other, I had my difficulties, do you believe me?"

"Yes, I believe you!" Xia Qingtian nodded and replied, "As long as you say it, I would believe you."

Hearing her say this, Bo Jingyan’s heart stirred.

But before he could feel happy, Xia Qingtian continued, "The reason I want to get the divorce certificate with you is not because I think you betrayed me."

"Then you..." Bo Jingyan furrowed his brow.

Xia Qingtian said honestly, "It’s because there’s no trust between us. In a relationship, trust is the cornerstone. Without trust, even the most beautiful of relationships is like a castle in the sky, there’s always the risk of it collapsing."

"I have not lost trust in you!" Bo Jingyan emphasized.

"If you haven’t lost faith in me, then why not tell me your difficulties?" Xia Qingtian spoke, "We are a couple, aren’t there problems we can’t solve together?"

Bo Jingyan fell silent.

He stubbornly did not want to get Xia Qingtian involved, didn’t want her to suffer.

Even if Xia Qingtian misunderstood him, he was willing to bear it.

Xia Qingtian waited for his reply for a long time and didn’t get a response. Her eyes dropped disappointedly, and she sighed.

In fact, this phone call she made was more of giving both of them one last chance than reminding Bo Jingyan to go to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

Unfortunately, Bo Jingyan didn’t seem to want it, nor was he willing to speak out about his so-called difficulties.

This time, Xia Qingtian had completely accepted her fate.

There’s one saying that went, those who love each other might not always end up together.

"Since you aren’t willing to say it, I won’t force you to." She calmed her emotions, and said, "See you at the Civil Affairs Bureau the day after tomorrow."

"Qingtian..." Bo Jingyan wanted to struggle again.

However, Xia Qingtian did not want to continue the tangled conversation, she directly said, "If you don’t show up that day, then I will sue for divorce directly at the court. We once loved each other, and even now still love each other, I don’t want the day to come where we are arguing in court. It’s not beneficial for either of us."

Bo Jingyan saw her determination and knew that she was not going to turn back.

"Are you really decided, to divorce me, to leave me?" He confirmed with a heavy voice.

"Yes." Xia Qingtian’s voice was firm.

A bitter smile appeared on Bo Jingyan’s face, his voice was somewhat bitter, "Fine, since it’s what you want, then I’ll grant it to you, how could I bear to make things difficult for you?"

In the end, he still compromised.

However, in his heart, their divorce was purely one of legal formality. In his heart, Xia Qingtian was always his wife, and that would not change.

Since he had agreed, Xia Qingtian did not waste more time.

"I won’t disturb you anymore, see you at nine o’clock the day after tomorrow in front of Civil Affairs Bureau." After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone without waiting for Bo Jingyan to speak.

The phone had been hung up, but Bo Jingyan hesitated to put down his mobile phone.

He suddenly found it strange that the number Xia Qingtian called him from was unfamiliar, could it be that she had changed her phone number?

He checked the call log and found that it was a landline number from an entertainment company.

Why didn’t she use her cell phone to call him?

With that thought, Bo Jingyan subconsciously searched for Xia Qingtian’s phone number and dialed it.

Soon, he got an answer.

Xia Qingtian’s phone number had been set to block calls from his number.

Xia Qingtian’s number had been blocked!

This was impossible!

How could he have blocked Xia Qingtian’s number?

In Bo Jingyan’s mind, he suddenly remembered the incident a while ago when Shi Qian had been placed in his office by his assistant. Although he had left his phone on the desk, it ended up falling on the ground.

His face immediately turned cold.

This must have been Shi Qian’s doing!

Bo Jingyan reflected on it and realized he was partly responsible. He had assumed that Shi Qian wouldn’t know the password to his phone and wouldn’t be able to unlock it, so after a brief check, he didn’t delve further.

Presumably, it was Shi Qian who had taken his phone and blocked Xia Qingtian’s number.

He had been too negligent!

However, since Shi Qian dared to touch his phone and blocked the number of the woman he loved, he would make her pay a harsh price!

...

Two days passed quickly.

Similarly, the one-month cooling-off period for divorce for Xia Qingtian and Bo Jingyan had also reached.

The night before, Xia Qingtian barely slept at all.

The next day, she got up an hour early, did her makeup, chose her outfit, and made herself look beautiful.

It wasn’t that she wanted to keep Bo Jingyan, but simply wanted to give each other a decent ending.

She ate something quickly and went to the Civil Affairs Bureau.

There weren’t many people at the Civil Affairs Bureau that day, but Xia Qingtian still needed to take a number and queue up as eighty percent of the people there were for divorce.

As time went on, more and more people arrived, most of them were still for divorces.
