Chapter 726: Chapter 726: Deeply Moved_1
Xia Qingtian found herself somewhat moved by what Bo Jingyan was suggesting.
"It’s possible, but..." She began, "I’m not currently at the office; Bingbing and I are out in the suburbs. We can’t seem to get a cab. Could you possibly come and pick us up?"
Bo Jingyan didn’t ask why they were in the suburbs, but readily agreed. "At your command, my dear wife!"
"Wait for us then," said Xia Qingtian. She ended the call and sent the retirement home’s address to Bo Jingyan.
The sound of footsteps came from behind. She turned and saw Cheng Bingbing, who had backtracked to retrieve something she had left at the retirement home.
She waved her phone and said, "I’ve found a driver. He’ll be here soon."
Cheng Bingbing was not present when Xia Qingtian made the call.
But seeing her expression now, Cheng Bingbing asked with certainty, "Is it Bo Jingyan who’s coming to pick us up?"
Eh?" Xia Qingtian arched her eyebrows in surprise. "How did you know?"
Did Cheng Bingbing overhear her phone call?
Cheng Bingbing pointed to the corner of her mouth and informed her, "When you said a car was coming to pick us up, your smile was sweet and your face was filled with happiness. You almost spilled the beans about Bo Jingyan being our driver."
Upon hearing those words, Xia Qingtian subconsciously touched her face.
Was she being that obvious?
Her smile faded a little. "You’re right, the person picking us up is indeed him!"
This morning when they parted, she thought they would not see each other for a while. Now, the thought of seeing him again tonight thrilled her.
Despite her subdued smile, the gleam of amusement and joy in Xia Qingtian’s eyes made even the stars in the sky seem dim.
She was clearly overjoyed, truly happy.
This was an emotion that Cheng Bingbing had never experienced before.
This stirred her curiosity. "Qingtian, what does it feel like to be genuinely in love with someone?" She asked.
Upon hearing this, Xia Qingtian contemplated carefully.
"The feeling is as if your entire world is illuminated. It’s incredibly warm and sweet. Even if you’re together and not saying or doing anything, it never feels boring. Rather, it feels overwhelmingly pleasant."
"Even when faced with difficulties or sorrow, just the thought of having that person by your side gives you a surge of strength. You feel invincible against any hardship."
Hearing this, Cheng Bingbing’s face lit up with longing.
After a while, she seemed to have made a resolution and shared, "Qingtian, regarding our previous discussion, I think I’ve made up my mind."
Caught off guard, Xia Qingtian didn’t grasp what she meant right away.
She blinked quickly and asked. "About what?"
Cheng Bingbing blushed, embarrassed. She was once so adamant, but in less than a day, she seemed to have flip-flopped.
Seeing her blushing face, Xia Qingtian understood immediately what she was referring to.
It was obvious Cheng Bingbing was feeling awkward. She quickly reassured her, "Oh, I know what you’re talking about. Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it for you."
Cheng Bingbing’s countenance eased. She asked in a low voice, "Qingtian, do you think I am fickle-minded?"
"Not at all," Xia Qingtian earnestly replied. "It’s your prerogative to make any decision or change your mind. Besides, I think Huo Qilin would be pleased with your decision."
Upon hearing Huo Qilin’s name, Cheng Bingbing’s face reddened involuntarily.
Seeing her embarrassment, Xia Qingtian did not continue teasing her.
After a short wait, they saw a pair of headlights coming toward them. A car drove up from a distance and finally stopped in front of them.
The car window rolled down, revealing Bo Jingyan’s face - an exquisite work of art meticulously crafted by God himself.
"How did you get here so quickly?" Xia Qingtian asked with a beaming smile.
No matter how many times she saw Bo Jingyan’s face, it still left her astounded every now and then.
"Of course, it’s because I wanted to see you sooner," Bo Jingyan gazed adoringly at her.
Xia Qingtian rolled her eyes at him, signaling him to tone it down. After all, it wasn’t just the two of them; Cheng Bingbing was also there.
Getting the cue, Bo Jingyan immediately put on his cold and aloof facade again.
He glanced indifferently at Xia Qingtian and said, "I’ve left something in the trunk. Could you get it for me?"
"What’s in there?" Xia Qingtian asked, puzzled.
But Bo Jingyan didn’t give her an answer, instead, he said, "You’ll know once you open the trunk."
Given his response, Xia Qingtian didn’t press further.
"Bingbing, I’ll help him get something. You go ahead and get in the car," she told Cheng Bingbing.
Truth be told, Cheng Bingbing was somewhat terrified of Bo Jingyan. She hesitated to share the same space with him and quickly replied, "Qingtian, let me help you."
Xia Qingtian could tell she was frightened of Bo Jingyan.
She really wanted to reassure Cheng Bingbing that there was nothing to be afraid of. Despite Bo Jingyan’s intimidating appearance, he was not one to pick on anyone without rhyme or reason.
But she refrained.
Bo Jingyan did appear rather intimidating when he wasn’t smiling. Even knowing that he wouldn’t harm her, the fear was understandable.
So, she didn’t force Cheng Bingbing to do anything she didn’t want to.
"Sure, come help me," Xia Qingtian agreed.
Verbal agreement aside, she did not genuinely feel like there was much help needed. After all, if something heavy needed to be lifted, no matter how absurd the situation, Bo Jingyan would never ask her to do it.
She assumed it might be some small item.
With that thought, Xia Qingtian walked to the trunk, about to lift the lid, but then...
The trunk lid automatically rose.
Next, her gaze was enveloped in a sea of fiery red. Before she could comprehend what was happening, she heard Cheng Bingbing gasp beside her.
"Wow..." Cheng Bingbing was so amazed that she covered her mouth, exclaiming involuntarily, "Qingtian, Bo Jingyan really knows how to create a romantic atmosphere."
Finally, she understood why Xia Qingtian was beaming with happiness whenever Bo Jingyan’s name came up.
Having a man with good looks and wealth like Bo Jingyan, who wore a cold mask to the rest of the world but melted into a kind gentleness just for you - who wouldn’t be moved by that?
Even though she already had a man she was fond of, and it wasn’t Bo Jingyan, she was still deeply moved!
