Chapter 677: Chapter 677: Found Him_1
Xia Qingtian was somewhat impatient.
She pressed on, eager for an answer, "Haven’t you told me yet. You called me, was it because you learned something about Huo Qilin?"
Bo Jingyan did not directly answer her question but responded with a hint of a smile in his voice, "We really are on the same wavelength."
At once, Xia Qingtian grasped his meaning.
Her guess was correct, he did indeed have news of Huo Qilin.
"Where is he now?" she asked further.
Bo Jingyan did not disclose Huo Qilin’s whereabouts. Instead, he said, "Don’t worry, my man is on his way to get you. He’ll bring you to find Huo Qilin."
"There’s no need for that trouble, just tell me directly, I can go there myself," Xia Qingtian replied immediately.
"No!" Bo Jingyan flatly refused, "I’m not comfortable with you going there alone."
Seeing his firm attitude, Xia Qingtian knew there was no room for negotiation.
If she didn’t agree, she probably wouldn’t find Huo Qilin, but she wasn’t angry. She was just curious as to where Huo Qilin was and why Bo Jingyan seemed so concerned.
Seeing her silence, Bo Jingyan mistakenly thought she was angry.
"Are you upset?" His voice carried a touch of helplessness, "I don’t mean to control you or interfere with your affairs, I’m just worried about you. Please don’t cause me to worry, alright?"
Xia Qingtian came back to her senses upon hearing his words.
His words gave a warm feeling in her heart.
Bo Jingyan had indeed changed a lot for her. Previously, he wouldn’t have bothered to explain this much. He used to be quite arrogantly independent.
"I’m not angry," Xia Qingtian responded, "I’m just curious about where Huo Qilin could be."
Bo Jingyan still did not tell her, just saying, "You’ll know once my man brings you there."
Hearing his words, Xia Qingtian didn’t dwell on it anymore.
Just like Bo Jingyan said, she would naturally know when she arrived.
After the two exchanged a few more words, the butler Uncle Wang suddenly came over and told Xia Qingtian, "Young Madam, the Young Master has sent someone to pick you up."
Upon hearing this, Xia Qingtian instantly understood it was the person Bo Jingyan sent to guide her to Huo Qilin.
To Bo Jingyan on the other end of the phone, she said, "Alright, I won’t keep you any longer, your man is here."
"Okay..." Before Bo Jingyan prepared to end the call and avoid keeping Xia Qingtian from her search, he couldn’t help but remind her, "Remember, you’re now a married woman. Maintain your distance from other men."
"Got it." Xia Qingtian responded tersely and, not waiting for the man on the other end of the phone to say something else that might irritate her, she hung up the phone.
Right after that, she ran back to change her shoes, picked up her bag, and prepared to leave.
"Sister Qingtian..." Cheng Bingbing saw her preparing to leave and jumped in, "You’re going out this late, is there something going on?"
As she spoke, she bit her lip and tentatively asked, "Did you receive news about Qilin?"
Xia Qingtian hesitated for a moment but considering that Bingbing was Huo Qilin’s girlfriend, and they now knew where Huo Qilin was, it wouldn’t hurt to tell her.
This way she could also avoid Bingbing overthinking alone.
So she nodded, "Yes, we’ve found his whereabouts. I’m going out right now to find him."
Bingbing’s eyes instantly lit up at those words, "I’ll come with you."
If it weren’t for Bo Jingyan insisting on sending a man to escort her, perhaps Qingtian would have considered bringing Bingbing along. But under these circumstances, she decided not to.
"You should wait at home!" She declined, "I can go alone!"
"Why?" Bingbing was confused.
She didn’t understand why Qingtian was reluctant to take her along.
Xia Qingtian initially did not plan to explain, but then thought about how Bo Jingyan always got jealous of her and Huo Qilin without reason. What if Bingbing misunderstands and gets jealous as well?
After all, a person in love is often ruled by emotions rather than reason!
After mulling it over, she finally explained, "This time, finding Qilin was thanks to Bo Jingyan. He sent a guy to guide me there, claiming it was for safety reasons."
Hearing the word ’danger’, Bingbing’s face turned pale and she became even more determined, "If it’s dangerous, then I must definitely go with you."
Seeing Bingbing’s reaction, Xia Qingtian knew she misunderstood.
"When I said it’s dangerous, I meant that the place where Huo Qilin could be is possibly quite chaotic. But it doesn’t mean Huo Qilin is in danger," she explained, "I have Bo Jingyan’s men to protect me. If you come with me, he will have to protect both of us, and it might be too much. I don’t mind, at most I’ll only get some minor injuries. But it’s different for you. If you trip and fall, the baby in your belly could be endangered. Do you want to risk the baby?"
The baby, again!
Xia Qingtian always used the baby to persuade Bingbing.
This tactic was almost wearing thin, but it always worked.
As soon as the baby was mentioned, Bingbing had to think carefully. She valued the baby in her belly tremendously and couldn’t bear to let it get even slightly hurt.
"Alright then..." In the end, as Qingtian had predicted, she compromised.
"Don’t worry, I will bring Huo Qilin back to you safely," said Qingtian upon seeing Bingbing’s compromise. She heaved a sigh of relief and then made her a promise.
"Alright," Bingbing advised, "Sister Qingtian, you must be careful."
"Sure," Qingtian casually responded, and then left with her bag.
Once she got to the entrance, Bo Jingyan’s man was already waiting for her there.
Seeing her come out, he respectfully opened the car door for her and motioned for her to get in.
Not too long after, the car came to a halt and the driver in the front reminded her, "Young Madam, we are here..."
Xia Qingtian didn’t rush to get out of the car. She lifted her head and looked outside through the window glass. After clear recognizing the place, she raised her eyebrows in surprise.
This was a bar, and she had been here before.
Back then, Huo Qilin used to be a resident singer at this bar and that was where she found him and met him for the first time.
She had not expected Huo Qilin would be hiding here.
Xia Qingtian opened the car door and asked the driver, "Where is Huo Qilin now? Take me to him at once."
Bo Jingyan’s man immediately led the way.
Since Huo Qilin had sung here before, the bar skyrocketed in fame after he left. The boss had wisely capitalized on this and expanded the bar several times its size.
The bar was thriving, bustling with customers almost every night.
