Chapter 613: Chapter 613: Give Me Some Time_1

Bo Jingyan doesn’t plan to let Xia Qingtian leave, but he doesn’t show it.

He pretends to cooperate, speaking in a languid manner, "Hmm? You speak, I’m listening."

Xia Qingtian knows that if he yields so easily, it certainly means he is just appeasing her, but that doesn’t matter, as long as he is willing to listen to her.

"Are you truly prepared to stay with me forever and never part?" She asked calmly.

"Of course!" Bo Jingyan’s reply was swift and firm.

Xia Qingtian curled her lips in a mocking smile, "Then do you still remember, why we ended up having to divorce in the first place?"

At her words, Bo Jingyan’s brows furrowed tightly.

He could guess what Xia Qingtian was going to say, but he had no way to stop her, nor to silence her, and keep her from continuing.

He had a premonition that Xia Qingtian might force him to let go.

Very soon, his hunch was confirmed.

"We’ve been divorced for so long, and you never told me what your so-called difficulties were." Xia Qingtian lowered her gaze, even though this matter could be considered ancient history, it still bothered her when brought up.

She didn’t understand. If Bo Jingyan had difficulties, why didn’t he communicate with her? Why didn’t he face them with her?

Bo Jingyan fell silent.

Xia Qingtian felt bitter inside, even after all this time, he wasn’t willing to come clean, unwilling to reveal his true difficulties.

Her voice filled with disappointment, she asked, "Could it be, in your heart, I am really not trustworthy?"

"No!" Bo Jingyan immediately negated her, "Qingtian, believe me, I never thought you were untrustworthy, I never intended not to trust you."

"Then tell me your hardships." Xia Qingtian demanded.

Bo Jingyan, however, simply couldn’t reveal the truth.

The old Mr. Bo never disclosed this matter to anyone till his death, not just for his wife’s sake, worrying that she would be too overwhelmed if she knew, but also for other reasons.

In his heart, he still cared for and protected his son, despite verbally expressing complete disappointment in him, even saying he disowned him, that’s why he allowed him to retain a shred of dignity.

He didn’t want to go against old Mr. Bo’s wishes by disclosing this.

Nor did he want Xia Qingtian to know about his mother’s illness, he didn’t want her to be bound by it like him, or to suffer from his mother’s wrath.

In the end, Bo Jingyan still had no intentions of sharing his plight.

In his deep voice, suppressing some emotions, he said, "I can’t say it just yet."

Xia Qingtian was completely disappointed, and no longer wished to pursue the matter, "Jingyan, are you still insisting on wanting to be with me forever?"

Bo Jingyan didn’t say anything.

Indeed, he yearned to. His wish had never changed, but it just wasn’t now!

If Xia Qingtian got back with him now, she would only become the target of Shi Qian and his mother’s attacks, only ending up wronged because they had already separated.

So every time his mother caused trouble, he would always choose himself, completely sidelining Xia Qingtian.

Instead of answering her question, Bo Jingyan asked, "Does your previous promise to me still stand?"

Xia Qingtian was taken aback, she didn’t know why his topic changed so quickly, and for a moment she couldn’t recall what promise he was referring to.

Seeing her forget, Bo Jingyan didn’t mind.

He reminded her, "You said as long as I obediently go to the hospital, you won’t leave me until my illness is cured!"

"Yes." Xia Qingtian nodded without hesitation.

Thinking about Bo Jingyan just lying there motionless, her heart trembled. He did not care about his body to such an extent, even in such condition, he refused to go to the hospital.

She couldn’t imagine if she hadn’t come to bring him medicine because she was worrying about his scalded hand, what would happen to him.

Would he just grit his teeth and bear it until he woke up the next day, then continue to work as usual, completely neglecting his health and not going to the hospital?

Even if Bo Jingyan didn’t insist, she wouldn’t leave until his health was completely restored.

Bo Jingyan’s previously dark and uncomfortable face relaxed a bit.

He made a solemn promise to Xia Qingtian, "Qingtian, don’t worry, once there’s progress on this matter, I will tell you everything. Please give me three more months..."

As he spoke, he felt three months was too long, he quickly changed his words, "No, one month, just give me one more month."

One month was already the limit he could bear.

He couldn’t let Xia Qingtian stay single for too long, nor could he bear to be apart from her for more than a month.

Therefore, he would deal with his mother’s issue swiftly and decisively, and resolve it as quickly as possible.

"Alright." Xia Qingtian agreed.

It was just a month, she could afford to give it.

Besides, even if she didn’t agree with Bo Jingyan, her company’s affairs wouldn’t be completed within a month, where would she find a man that she liked and that liked her back?

Whether she agreed or not, the result would be the same.

But thinking about all that Bo Jingyan had done for her, she was willing to give him another chance.

Having his demands met, Bo Jingyan loosened his hold on her without Xia Qingtian’s prompting, "Let’s go, we’re going to the hospital."

Once Xia Qingtian was free, she immediately stood up.

Bo Jingyan, meanwhile, sat down on the sofa again, clutching his stomach with a pale face.

After a long while, he managed to stand up from the sofa.

His previous complaint of a stomachache wasn’t just an excuse to win Xia Qingtian’s sympathy, he was genuinely in pain.

When he was holding Xia Qingtian just now, he had been gritting his teeth and grittily bearing the pain.

Xia Qingtian had been held so tightly by him that she was completely buried in his arms, and couldn’t see his face. Now, seeing his pale face, she realized that his condition was more serious than she had thought.

Her face darkened instantly, and she asked furrowringly, "Is the stomachache very severe?"

"Yes." Bo Jingyan responded, his tone carrying a hint of pitifulness.

"You deserve it! I told you we should go to the hospital earlier, but you wouldn’t listen, now you feel the pain, don’t you?" Xia Qingtian’s tone was harsh, but her heart ached for him.

She stepped forward to support Bo Jingyan, saying, "Let’s go, off to the hospital."

Saying that, she helped Bo Jingyan down the stairs.

Thankfully, Bo Jingyan’s apartment was so large, with very comprehensive facilities.

Nearby were shopping malls, schools, and hospitals, all within a reasonable distance.
