Chapter 672: Chapter 672: Husband and Wife Singing Together _1

Even Bo Jingyan, a man with massive influence in A City and even seen as someone who could monopolize it, was unable to find the whereabouts of Zhou Lu.

This just shows how deep and complicated this situation is. Perhaps there are still underlying issues they don’t know about.

Because of this, Cheng Bingbing was starting to feel uneasy.

However, given the current situation, she couldn’t think of a better idea than what Xia Qingtian suggested. So she nodded and agreed, "Alright, I’ll follow your plan."

After finishing their important discussion, they both realized they were hungry and decided to go out for a meal together.

During the meal, Cheng Bingbing worried that Xia Qingtian would come over to Huo Qilin’s house looking for her again, so she told Qingtian, "If you want to find me in the future, you can either visit the dormitory where I used to live or give me a call, then I’ll meet up with you."

Xia Qingtian, after swallowing the food in her mouth, asked in surprise, "Why? You were living comfortably at Qilin’s place. Why would you suddenly want to move back?"

Considering the fact that Cheng Bingbing was pregnant, it was quite good for her to be living with Huo Qilin. This way, she would have some company.

If she lived alone in the dormitory, there would be no one to take care of her or help her in case something happened.

A bitter look flashed in Cheng Bingbing’s eyes.

Although she and Huo Qilin were nominally a couple, it was all a sham. She couldn’t possibly cling to Huo Qilin because of this pretense. She suspected that the reason why Huo Qilin was so eager to go out to find inspiration and didn’t even say goodbye was that he found out about her feelings for him and deliberately avoided her.

Huo Qilin had been so kind to her; she didn’t want to repay his kindness with ingratitude, forcing him to have no home to return to.

"Because..." Cheng Bingbing pursed her lips, looking for an excuse, "His house is too big, and I’m scared to live there alone at night. I’d rather go back to the dormitory. We can talk about the rest when Qilin comes back."

She couldn’t tell Xia Qingtian that she and Huo Qilin were pretending to be a couple.

She hadn’t forgotten that they had pretended to be a couple in front of Xia Qingtian.

Qingtian still seemed worried. "You’re pregnant now. I’m worried about you living alone. How about this, while Qilin is not here, you can stay at my place."

Cheng Bingbing could tell that she cared about her, and she couldn’t help but feel moved.

However, she genuinely believed that she was not that delicate and that she could take care of herself.

She refused, saying, "No, I can manage."

Ignoring Bingbing’s reassurances, Xia Qingtian continued adamantly, "Right now, you have two options: either you can move to my place, or I’ll stay with you at Qilin’s."

Seeing her determination, Cheng Bingbing knew she couldn’t persuade Qingtian otherwise.

Xia Qingtian had her son, An’an, at home. How could Bingbing make it so that she couldn’t even return home? In the end, she had no choice but to compromise, "Fine. I’ll stay at your place."

"Good girl!" With her goal accomplished, Xia Qingtian was in high spirits. She rewarded Bingbing with a chicken drumstick and promised her, "Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of you during this time. When Huo Qilin comes back, I’ll make sure you’re a happy and healthy girlfriend for him."

Knowing that she was not Huo Qilin’s girlfriend, Cheng Bingbing didn’t comment on Qingtian’s words.

Xia Qingtian didn’t suspect anything and thought Bingbing was just shy.

After finishing their meal, Qingtian accompanied Bingbing to pack a few essentials and took her to her estate.

For a while, besides working, Xia Qingtian spent her time taking care of Bingbing and tried to find out the identity of the handsome man who took Bingbing to the hospital last time.

Of course, the most important thing was daily video calls with Bo Jingyan.

Her life was fulfilling and leisurely.

But such a relaxed lifestyle didn’t last long.

...

That day.

During her video call with Bo Jingyan, she suddenly got a phone call.

She initially didn’t plan on answering it, figuring she could call back after the video call with Jingyan, but then she noticed the caller ID showed it was the assistant director of Bingbing’s drama.

She immediately changed her mind.

Her only connection with the production was Bingbing. If the assistant director was calling her, could something have happened to Bingbing?

Thinking about Bingbing being pregnant, she didn’t dare to be careless.

"Jingyan, let me pick up a call first. I’ll call you later when I’m free," Xia Qingtian promptly told Bo Jingyan on the other end of the phone.

Bo Jingyan, who had been interrupted, had a hint of annoyance in his eyes. But since Xia Qingtian had already mentioned it, he would undoubtedly not object, "Alright, you go ahead."

Qingtian noticed his displeasure and kissed him over the phone, saying, "Here’s a kiss for you, don’t be upset. I’ll make it up to you when you come back!"

The mention of making it up suddenly piqued Jingyan’s interest.

His eyes twinkling, he stared at Xia Qingtian, "Remember, you promised yourself. When the time comes, don’t cry for mercy. Even if you beg, I won’t let go."

Upon hearing this, Xia Qingtian couldn’t help but roll her eyes.

Anyone who didn’t know the situation might assume from this conversation that he had mercifully spared her when she begged for mercy. The last time she had cried until her voice was hoarse.

The man didn’t spare her at all; in fact, he took greater advantage of her!

How could he brazenly say such things now?

Still, because she was worried about Cheng Bingbing, she didn’t quarrel with Bo Jingyan or scold him. Instead, she simply said, "Ok, it’s set then. I’m hanging up now."

This time, Bo Jingyan didn’t get angry. Instead, he politely replied, "You go ahead. If you run into something you can’t solve, you can tell me about it."

Since they had reconciled now, Xia Qingtian did not hold back and agreed immediately.

"Okay, I understand." After she said that, she ended the call.

Because she took a few extra minutes to chat with Jingyan, the assistant director had hung up. Xia Qingtian then immediately called him back.

The call was quickly picked up.

Without her asking, the assistant director cooperatively told her everything.

It turned out that Huo Qilin had visited the set today and ended up punching an actor who was in a scene with Xia Qingtian.

Upon hearing this, Xia Qingtian felt bombarded by information.

She didn’t know quite what to ask first: why Huo Qilin, who was supposed to be looking for inspiration elsewhere, had suddenly showed up at the set and punched the actor who was acting with Cheng Bingbing or how badly the actor was hurt and how the production was doing now.

In the end, Xia Qingtian felt it was inconvenient to discuss the issue over the phone and told the assistant director, "Director, don’t worry too much right now. I’m on my way to the set. We can discuss everything once I get there."
