Chapter 646: Chapter 646: Greedy Young Master _1

A hint of surprise flashed across Bo Jingyan’s deep eyes.

In the end, he still didn’t say anything, responding to Xia Qingtian with silence.

Seeing him like this, Xia Qingtian was both exasperated and amused enough to laugh.

She understood what Bo Jingyan’s silence meant--he must think that she didn’t know anything and was simply trying to deceive him.

If he said anything, he would fall into her trap.

It was clear to see, Bo Jingyan really didn’t want her to know about the recurrence of his mother’s cancer.

"Bo Jingyan, stop pretending, and don’t be afraid that I’m tricking you..." Xia Qingtian didn’t want to waste time anymore, and stated directly, "I know about your mother’s cancer returning. The fact that you stood me up that night, and that you agreed to let Shi Qian return, it’s all because of your mother’s illness, because she can’t be stimulated, isn’t it?"

Bo Jingyan’s pupils trembled slightly, looking at her with some surprise.

Indeed he had not expected that despite his long efforts at concealment, Xia Qingtian would eventually find out.

Since Xia Qingtian knew already, there was no need to continue hiding, so he admitted plainly, "Yes, it’s like you think."

Xia Qingtian had suspected this already.

But now, hearing Bo Jingyan’s acknowledgement, it was inevitable for her heart to sour.

She turned to Bo Jingyan with a somewhat hoarse voice for confirmation, "So, the reason you want to break up with me, is because you don’t want your mother to be stimulated?"

Bo Jingyan sighed.

He had originally intended to handle these issues by himself, without causing unnecessary trouble for Xia Qingtian.

However, looking at Xia Qingtian’s expression, it seemed she wouldn’t let it go without a proper explanation.

The current situation was still manageable.

If it came to the point where even he could no longer control, then things would be bad!

It wasn’t easy to explain this matter, and he might need to make a concerted effort to persuade Xia Qingtian, but it wasn’t a nuisance.

With this thought in mind, Bo Jingyan pulled her and said, "Let’s sit down and talk slowly."

While saying this, he had already pulled Xia Qingtian to sit down on the sofa.

Then he asked Jiang Xuan to bring in two cups of coffee, so they could chat slowly.

Seeing his actions, Xia Qingtian understood what he meant and cooperated with him by sitting down as it was what she had wished as well.

Soon, Jiang Xuan brought the coffee.

Bo Jingyan ordered him, "Without my permission, no one is allowed to disturb me."

Jiang Xuan hesitated and looked at Xia Qingtian before probing, "What if it’s Miss Shi?"

As he mentioned Shi Qian, a hint of disdain flashed in Bo Jingyan’s eyes.

"Wasn’t I clear enough? Anyone!" His voice was almost freezing cold, "Do you think she is the exception in my eyes?"

"Okay, I understand." Jiang Xuan nodded his head.

Of course he knew, not only was Shi Qian not an exception, but she was also deeply disliked by Bo Jingyan. However, because she had Bo’s mother backing her, she had been fearless and indiscriminate in the company.

"Okay, I won’t disturb you guys." And with that, he left and kindly helped to close the door behind him.

Soon, only Xia Qingtian and Bo Jingyan were left in the office.

And the office was secured so that there would be no disturbance.

Xia Qingtian held the coffee brought by Jiang Xuan in her hand, a hint of gloom in her eyes.

From the previous conversation between Jiang Xuan and Bo Jingyan, it could be inferred that Shi Qian might have often come to the company to look for Bo Jingyan, otherwise, Jiang Xuan wouldn’t have asked that question specifically.

Even though she knew this was not Bo Jingyan’s wish, she still felt uncomfortable.

She took a sip of the coffee, suppressed the discomfort in her heart, turned to Bo Jingyan, and talked about the real issue, "Alright, now there are only the two of us left in the office, you can answer my question from before, right?"

Bo Jingyan didn’t continue to hide this time, "Yes, but not entirely."

His words confused Xia Qingtian, if it’s yes, then it is yes, if it’s no, then it’s no, what does ’yes, but not entirely’ mean?

"What do you mean?" Xia Qingtian frowned.

Bo Jingyan said in a calm and collected manner, "Because she doesn’t like you and opposes us getting back together, indeed, our continued relationship will stimulate her. In addition to that, there’s another reason, and that’s you... "

"Me?" Xia Qingtian raised her eyebrows in surprise.

She didn’t understand what this matter had to do with her.

"Yes..." Bo Jingyan nodded, his eyes burning into her, "If you continue to be with me, in order not to aggrieve her condition further, how would you deal with her provocation and Shi Qian’s schemes against you?"

He presented the question to Xia Qingtian.

Xia Qingtian opened her mouth and replied, "I won’t argue with elders, especially one who is sick and can’t be stimulated. If Shi Qian tries to trap me again, for the sake of her feelings, and for you, I will choose to swallow my anger."

Bo Jingyan said sadly, "That’s the answer."

Xia Qingtian hesitated, then quickly realized his meaning. He’d made those choices because he didn’t want her to be wronged.

He’d kept secrets just so she wouldn’t be in a dilemma.

She opened her mouth, wanting to say something.

Bo Jingyan didn’t give her the chance to speak, interjecting, "Now that you have the answer you wanted to know, would you give me some time? After her illness is cured, we won’t have any restrictions. At that time, I will find a way to win you back."

"Bo Jingyan, I..." Xia Qingtian wanted to give her answer to his question.

"You don’t need to answer my question for now." Bo Jingyan interrupted her, "I can give you some time to think clearly."

He was afraid to hear the answer he didn’t want to hear from Xia Qingtian.

Xia Qingtian was somewhat confused at present, but after hearing his words, she didn’t object.

She nodded her head and sincerely promised Bo Jingyan, "Alright, I will think it over carefully."

Bo Jingyan checked the time and found that it was almost lunchtime. He knew he should stay away from Xia Qingtian and avoid too much interaction so as not to expose any clues.

Otherwise, it might bring a lot of trouble for Xia Qingtian.

Previous incidents with Zhu Wei and the Zhu Family served as lessons.

But people are greedy, him included. When he was apart from Xia Qingtian, he managed to curb his deep longing for her. Yet, when he saw her in person, he didn’t want to let go anymore.
