Chapter 610: Chapter 610: Can’t Help but Go to See Him_1

Cheng Bingbing’s fair and slender fingers were tightly twisted together due to anxiety.

"Qilin, do you..." She bit her lip, as if she had made a significant decision, and asked, "Does your older brother have any businesses or investments in the entertainment industry?"

Huo Qilin immediately replied, "No! Our family has not ventured into the entertainment industry!"

Cheng Bingbing breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing that.

Since the Huo Family didn’t have any businesses in the entertainment industry, Huo Qichen likely wouldn’t attend the award ceremony dinner. All the attendees that night were insiders from the entertainment industry.

Therefore, her feeling of familiarity with Huo Qichen’s figure that she saw in the haze that night was probably a mere coincidence.

The man who had slept with her on the night of the awards and was the father of the baby in her belly, most likely was not Huo Qichen.

With these thoughts in mind, Cheng Bingbing comforted herself not to scare herself any longer.

How could such coincidences happen in this world?

That was what she thought, but for some reason, she still had a lingering sense of unease.

Cheng Bingbing reached up to touch her neck and felt a red thread with a round bead on it hidden in her clothes. She had found this bead on the bed after waking up that day.

She suspected it had been left behind by that man.

Therefore, she had subconsciously kept the bead and not mentioned it to anyone, including Xia Qingtian.

Even though the bead might have been accidentally left behind by that man, she should have thrown it away. But inexplicably, she kept it.

Whenever she was upset, touching the bead, of unknown material, always calmed her down.

...

On the other hand.

After sending Cheng Bingbing away, Xia Qingtian took another nap.

Overwhelmed by fever, she had not slept well since then. Unexpectedly, after taking the medicine prescribed by the doctor, her fever had completely subsided and she felt refreshed.

Looking at the time, she realized it was neither too early nor too late; almost time for the end of Bo Group’s working hours.

Although she had slept for a while, she had not forgotten about Bo Jingyan’s burn.

She didn’t know if Bo Jingyan had gone to the hospital. If not, he still needed to apply medication as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the wound got wet, it could easily get infected and cause complications.

Xia Qingtian didn’t want to gamble on whether he had gone to the hospital or if his wound would get infected.

She changed her clothes, took the burn ointment and was ready to leave. However, only then did she realise that she didn’t know if Bo Jingyan would be going back to his downtown flat or his old house tonight.

If he was going downtown, she still had a chance to see him.

If he was at the old house, she would probably not even see him and would be driven out by Bo’s mother.

After considerable deliberation, she decided to inquire about Bo Jingyan’s whereabouts. The only person she knew who might have this information and whom she could contact was Jian Xuan.

Reluctantly, Xia Qingtian called Jian Xuan.

When he answered the call, Jian Xuan was surprised to see that it was Xia Qingtian. Not wanting to delay in case she needed his help, he immediately answered, "Ma’am, is there something you need my help with?"

Xia Qingtian pursed her lips and said, "Yes, I have a question for you."

"Alright." Jian Xuan complied, "As long as it’s within my knowledge, I promise to share whatever I know."

With his assurance, Xia Qingtian felt relieved.

She first asked, "Is Bo Jingyan busy today? Did he go to the hospital?"

"Yes, he’s busy. The CEO has to manage such a large company every day, he’s so busy he doesn’t even have time to eat. How could he not be busy? As for the hospital..." replied Jian Xuan, "It doesn’t seem like it."

"This morning, Mr. Bo took a call and, for some reason, abruptly left an important meeting and returned only in the afternoon. Then he began having various meetings, working until just now before he finished."

Upon hearing this, Xia Qingtian was somewhat upset.

Jian Xuan didn’t know why Bo Jingyan left the company. But she knew.

He must have received Uncle Wang’s call telling him that she had a fever. As a result, he left his work at the company and rushed back to the villa to take care of her. He even personally cooked porridge for her, subsequently burning the inside of his wrist.

When she heard that Bo Jingyan did not go to the hospital, Xia Qingtian immediately asked the real purpose of the call, "Then do you know if Bo Jingyan went back to the old house or downtown tonight?"

"Downtown." Jian Xuan replied.

Mr. Bo usually only goes to the old house when he gets a call from there. Apart from this morning, Jian Xuan had been with Mr. Bo all the time and hadn’t seen him receive any calls from the old house.

Moreover, he seemed to recall that when Mr. Bo finished work, he had vaguely mentioned going to the house downtown.

"Okay, I know, thank you, Assistant Jiang." Said Xia Qingtian, ending the call after expressing her gratitude.

After hanging up the phone, she immediately set off for Bo Jingyan’s downtown flat.

When she arrived at Bo Jingyan’s doorstep, she pondered about what she should say when she saw him. However, when she thought of the fact that they were separated only by a door and she could see him by just knocking, she began to feel nervous and her mind was a mess.

Despite the fact that she and Bo Jingyan were divorced, why was she feeling like a young girl who has just fallen in love?

Could it be because she and Bo Jingyan had a marriage before love, and without the intimate relationship of marriage, they were now both single, hence this kind of feeling?

Stranded outside for quite a while, Xia Qingtian still hadn’t figured out what to say to Bo Jingyan.

In the end, she decided not to think about it any longer.

Why think so much? It was better to go with the flow. If she procrastinated any longer, it would soon be daybreak.

With that in mind, Xia Qingtian took a deep breath and knocked on Bo Jingyan’s door.

However, she waited for a while but nobody came to open the door.

She was puzzled. Could Jian Xuan’s information have been inaccurate?

Xia Qingtian took out her phone, ready to call Jian Xuan for confirmation. However, just as she found his number and was about to dial, she stopped.

Why was she making things unnecessarily complicated?

Why wasn’t she directly calling Bo Jingyan?

Who else would know better than him about his whereabouts?

Initially, she had tried to keep her intentions hidden for fear that Bo Jingyan might misunderstand her. But now she realised that since she had already taken the initiative to deliver the burn ointment, if he was going to misunderstand, he certainly would.

What difference did it make if she made another call?

Once she realised this, Xia Qingtian couldn’t help but knock on her own forehead. She had truly become addle-brained.
