Chapter 714: Chapter 714: Can’t Reveal the Love Affair_1

"I will remember what you said!" Xia Qingtian lowered her voice, her words bold and straightforward. She then turned to leave.

"Stop! Who says you can leave?" Shi Qian frowned, shouting out to stop Xia Qingtian. "Take off that mask, let me see what you look like."

She had no idea what this woman looked like, and if she tried to hit on Bo Jingyan again somewhere else, she wouldn’t recognize her.

Her best bet was to see the woman’s face clearly, find an excuse, borrow some people from Shen Junru, and keep an eye on her in case she tried anything.

She would be first to know if she tried anything with Bo Jingyan again.

As she thought it over, Shi Qian felt more and more confident in her plan.

Xia Qingtian paused momentarily, and then as if she hadn’t heard a thing, continued walking into the crowd.

She even quickened her pace.

Seeing this, Shi Qian suddenly found her behavior suspicious.

Why was she running? Was it a guilty conscience?

Realizing this, Shi Qian quickly caught up to her and grabbed hold of Xia Qingtian’s arm.

"Why are you running?" Shi Qian squinted her eyes, a question in her voice.

Xia Qingtian was caught, her heart filled with anger. If she had known Shi Qian would be here, she wouldn’t have chosen these peculiar 10cm high-heeled shoes. Now she couldn’t even run away and was caught.

And her complicated dress, while beautiful, greatly restricted her movement.

Even shaking off Shi Qian’s hand felt like an impossible task!

What could she do now?

"I..." All Xia Qingtian could do was find some sort of excuse. She blurted out, "My friend called, said my house is on fire. I need to go right now, let go of me."

"I will let you go, but first, remove the mask. Once I see your face clearly, I’ll let you go home," Shi Qian urged, "Don’t waste time, do it quickly!"

Xia Qingtian immediately brought her hand up to her face.

What a joke!

If she took off her mask and allowed Shi Qian to see her face, wouldn’t that be the same as telling her directly that she had gotten back together with Bo Jingyan?

Based on Shi Qian’s character, she would definitely make a big fuss in front of Bo’s mother.

This was the scenario that she and Bo Jingyan were most unwilling to face.

"No, I can’t!" Xia Qingtian shook her head, her tone firm.

Shi Qian was initially just trying to get a look at this woman’s face as a precaution. But with her reluctance to remove her mask, she started to feel suspicious.

Why wouldn’t she take off her mask?

Was it because her face was not fit to be seen?

Could this woman, who bore a stunning similarity to Xia Qingtian, be...

Xia Qingtian!!!

Realizing this, Shi Qian’s gaze grew dangerous as she pressed on the questioning, "Why can’t you take it off? Is it because your face is hideous?"

"Because..." In her panic, Xia Qingtian quickly made up an excuse. "Because I am too ugly. But I rely on my looks for broadcasting. If I take off my mask and my fans see, or I get exposed, it will ruin my career."

For Shi Qian, the fact that she still refused to remove her mask raised further suspicions.

Today, she was determined to see this woman’s true face.

"If you are afraid of being seen or exposed, let’s find a secluded place. You can take off your mask and show only me. I’m not involved in the influencer circle, I won’t expose you. You can trust me," she said.

Isn’t she worried that taking off her mask here in front of everyone would ruin her career?

Then they would find a less crowded place, and she’d see what kind of excuse this woman could come up with then.

Shi Qian was about to drag Xia Qingtian to a secluded place.

Xia Qingtian frowned, her heart beating fast.

After she had explained herself, what other reasons could she use to refuse to take off her mask?

In a jittery state, she tried to shake off Shi Qian’s hand.

But for some reason Shi Qian seemed unusually strong today, her hand firmly gripping Xia Qingtian’s arm. Xia Qingtian felt as if her arm was about to be crushed, and she couldn’t shake free.

What could she do?

Was it really impossible to keep her secret affair with Bo Jingyan a secret any longer? Would they have to make their relationship public?

What about Bo’s mother then?

Would it stimulate the spread of her recurring cancer cells?

Xia Qingtian felt worried and had no idea what to do.

Unfazed by Xia Qingtian’s distress, Shi Qian forcefully dragged her towards the restroom, fully intent on unmasking her today.

She wanted to find out who she really was!

Despite struggling all the way, it was to no avail for Xia Qingtian.

She wanted to call for help, but her phone had been knocked out of her hand by Shi Qian and she hadn’t picked it up since. She didn’t even know if it was damaged.

The restroom was now within reach as they continued their entanglement.

Xia Qingtian continued to struggle, hoping to find something nearby that she could use to break free from Shi Qian.

Perhaps her luck really had run out today.

Not only did she not find any convenient weapons along the way, but she also didn’t see many people.

So she couldn’t even ask for help!

Before she knew it, Shi Qian had already pushed open the restroom door and was trying to drag her in.

"Let me go, I really can’t take off the mask," Xia Qingtian forcefully held onto the restroom door, refusing to let go no matter what.

Due to her urgency, she didn’t have time to control her volume.

Shi Qian noted that the woman’s physique and voice seemed to resemble Xia Qingtian’s.

If she had closed her eyes and just listened to this woman speak, she would honestly have thought that it was Xia Qingtian.

This reinforced her determination to unmask this woman.

Seeing Xia Qingtian’s refusal to let go of the restroom door, she pulled even harder to try and drag her into the restroom.

Her strength was so great that Xia Qingtian’s fingers gradually lost their grip. Soon, she was hanging on to the doorframe with just her middle finger.

However, even her middle finger was weakening.

Xia Qingtian was panicking. Just as she was about to lose her grip, a strong hand with distinct knuckles suddenly grabbed her arm.

Before she could react she felt a yank, and suddenly Shi Qian had let go of her and she fell into a powerful embrace that felt remarkably safe.

She hadn’t even had time to see who had saved her from Shi Qian’s grasp.

All she saw was Shi Qian, who had been so confident just moments ago, suddenly becoming quiet and docile, whispering, "Brother Jingyan..."
