Chapter 710: Chapter 710: Catching His Weakness_1

When compared to the aloof Bo Jingyan, Xia Qingtian appeared much more approachable.

Consequently, a flock of people gathered around Xia Qingtian.

Bo Jingyan’s face, hidden behind his mask, turned colder when his carefully arranged masquerade ball—to date Xia Qingtian—had gone awry. Currently, he couldn’t even get close to her.

But seeing her having a good time, Bo Jingyan held back his impulse to drive everyone away, leaving only him by her side.

Fortunately, Xia Qingtian quickly noticed that Bo Jingyan was being left out.

She knew Bo Jingyan didn’t like extra attention. After shooting a few videos with popular internet celebrities, she wriggled out of the crowd and returned to Bo Jingyan’s side.

Her return lit up Bo Jingyan’s eyes.

"Finished playing?" He asked Xia Qingtian.

Xia Qingtian held his hand, grinned, and said, "Not really. But I prefer spending time with my boyfriend than with strangers. I bet he’d be thrilled if I kept him company, right?"

"Your words are sweet today, as if you’ve eaten honey." Bo Jingyan said, his eyes intensely focused on her.

Xia Qingtian was startled by this.

Noticing the crowd around them, she fearfully took a step back, hoping to distance herself from him, "There are many people around. Please be mindful. I don’t want to be the spectacle here."

Many people were filming videos and live streaming here.

She had no intention of being a spectacle nor to showcase her lovey-dovey relationship with Bo Jingyan.

"I was just teasing. I don’t want everyone to see you blush. Only I get to see that side of you," Bo Jingyan leaned in, whispering to her.

Xia Qingtian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Today, Huasheng Group’s masquerade ball had plenty of games with special, commemorative prizes. They even brought in a claw machine.

Seeing Ultraman in the claw machine, she thought every boy liked Ultraman. She decided to try to win one for An’an.

Seeing her interest, Bo Jingyan, of course, had to intervene.

He wasn’t too familiar with these games. He quickly ran out of game coins and seemed to struggle a bit.

Xia Qingtian saw him falter, a rare sight. It added a human touch to this high-profile businessman.

Despite holding back her amusement, Xia Qingtian comforted him, "If you can’t grab it, no worries. An’an doesn’t understand yet. You can slowly learn. By the time he understands, you can grab one for him."

Huo Qilin gave her a lackluster look, "Why do I feel like you’re mocking me?"

"Not at all," Xia Qingtian answered seriously, "I’m just comforting you. It’s not humanly possible to be good at everything. Your skills may just be related to earning money."

But Bo Jingyan was arrogantly confident, "Once I’ve set my mind to it, there is nothing I can’t do!"

Saying so, he went and bought a huge box of game coins. His behavior was as if he wanted to hoard all the game coins.

Xia Qingtian was speechless seeing his refusal to give up.

His damned competitive spirit.

But seeing Bo Jingyan’s resolve to continue, Xia Qingtian didn’t want to intervene and decided to silently watch the spectacle. She secretly getting ready to film it on her phone.

Whenever Bo Jingyan pissed her off in the future, she could use this video to mock him.

With these thoughts in mind, Xia Qingtian enthusiastically awaited Bo Jingyan to fail so that she could document it.

But contrary to her wishes, Bo Jingyan’s claw skills magically improved. He managed to hook not only An’an’s Ultraman but also many other plush toys. His success rate was almost perfect.

Bo Jingyan stuffed all the toys into Xia Qingtian’s arms and casually asked, "Which one do you want me to grab next?"

Xia Qingtian thought he was being extremely cocky.

She wanted to humble him a bit. Without any special desire for a plush toy, she stepped forward and scanned all the toys in the claw machine.

Soon, she had a target.

She pointed at the mermaid toy trapped beneath the pile and said, "I want that one!"

The mermaid was the most difficult to grab.

"No problem," Bo Jingyan immediately agreed.

Xia Qingtian was ready to watch him falter again.

But instead of trying to grab the mermaid, Bo Jingyan started picking other toys first. Of course, he grabbed every one of them.

"I want the mermaid!" Xia Qingtian reminded him.

Without rushing, Bo Jingyan replied, "No rush, take it slow."

And so, Xia Qingtian stood there, watching Bo Jingyan successfully grab every toy from the claw machine. She had so many toys that she couldn’t hold them all and had to set them on the ground.

Bo Jingyan’s remarkable claw skills drew many spectators. Some even documented the event as a Vlog, which went viral.

...

Meanwhile...

Shi Qian was having dinner with Shen Junru at a restaurant.

Shen Junru didn’t seem to have much appetite.

Seeing that she rarely ate anything, Shi Qian took it upon herself to serve Shen Junru, saying, "Junjun, their food is pretty good. You should try some."

Shen Junru didn’t even glance at the food Shi Qian served her.

She was a bit frustrated and asked, "How’s everything coming along?"

Her cousins at the Shen Family had been calling her recently, telling her to find a property in A City. They would be coming at the end of the month. They had learned that Shen Lanxin, the aunt who had left the Shen Family in anger years ago, had always lived in A City and never left. Thus, they wanted to find her!

If she didn’t get rid of Xia Qingtian soon, it would become even more troublesome when her cousins from the Shen Family arrived. These men were more cunning and competent than her grandfather and uncle. They wouldn’t be so easily manipulated.

As soon as they arrived in A City, they could easily unearth that Xia Qingtian was Shen Lanxin’s daughter.
