Chapter 731: Chapter 731: Relationship Coming to an End_1

Hearing Xia Qingtian’s words and recalling her previous actions, Huo Qilin suddenly felt as if everything made sense.

"Bingbing, she actually likes me!" he said, hardly able to suppress a silly giggle.

Xia Qingtian barely kept her eyes from rolling at his goofy expression.

If his fans knew the man they idolized acted like this in private, their fantasies would surely shatter.

She shook her head in exasperation, saying nothing because she knew Huo Qilin was merely overjoyed.

She decided to let him delight in the moment.

Thinking this, Xia Qingtian ignored him and turned her attention to her computer.

After replying to some urgent emails, Huo Qilin slowly emerged from his excitement and then suddenly realized a serious problem.

Frowning in confusion, he looked at Xia Qingtian and asked, "If I like Bingbing and Bingbing likes me, why did she reject me?"

He had a feeling that if Cheng Bingbing liked him but refused to be with him, there must have been a greater, irreconcilable disagreement between them.

Seeing that he was finally asking the essential question, Xia Qingtian had to stop what she was doing.

Having obtained Cheng Bingbing’s permission the previous day, she shared Cheng Bingbing’s concerns, saying, "She deeply loves the child in her belly and doesn’t want the child to suffer in any way, so she can’t accept you, and presumably any other man."

After listening to Xia Qingtian, Huo Qilin said, "She’s really silly. I know she has a child and I’m willing to treat the child as my own. What does she have to worry about?"

Xia Qingtian would have had the same thoughts before she met the little girl, Miaomiao, yesterday.

But now, like Cheng Bingbing, she couldn’t completely trust human nature either.

Being in Cheng Bingbing’s position, she might also make the same choice, considering Cheng Bingbing had an unhappy childhood and grew up in a loveless family.

She didn’t want to bear a similarly unfortunate child.

She hoped to love her child with all her heart!

"But what about your mother? What about the members of the Lu family? Would they genuinely accept a child that has no blood relation with the Lu family?" Xia Qingtian questioned, looking him in the eye. "Can you guarantee that in the future, after you have children, the members of the Lu family, including you, won’t treat the two children differently?"

Huo Qilin opened his mouth but was unable to answer her question.

Xia Qingtian only met Huo’s mother once and knew she was a commanding figure, but she didn’t know that she also had a strong desire for control.

Cheng Bingbing, not to mention being pregnant now, even if the child she was carrying was his, it would be difficult to get past Madam Huo. Not to mention that the child had no connection whatsoever to him or the Huo Family.

Madam Huo would never accept the child!

Upon realizing this, Huo Qilin felt a cold chill down his spine.

Seeing the change in Huo Qilin’s expression, Xia Qingtian knew that he must have understood the anxiety of Cheng Bingbing and realized how difficult it was to resolve the issue.

If they didn’t handle this matter correctly, no matter how much they loved each other, it would be pointless.

The two of them could never be together!

"I’ve helped you as much as I can, and I can’t do anything more about the rest." Xia Qingtian said somewhat helplessly, "You and Bingbing have come to an impasse, whether you can continue or not depends on if you can pave a bright path for your future."

"I’ll give it some serious thought." Huo Qilin nodded.

Then, he looked at Xia Qingtian with gratitude and said, "Qingtian, thank you for everything you’ve done for me."

He knew that Xia Qingtian was just his agent and, even though she was also a friend, she wasn’t obliged to help him resolve his love problems. Her willing to help was completely out of kindness.

He shouldn’t take kindness for granted.

His serious thanks somewhat flustered Xia Qingtian.

She waved her hand dismissively and said, "It’s fine. Bingbing and I are friends, and if you two can overcome all obstacles to be together, it will be a merit in my eyes."

"Then I won’t disturb your work any longer. You continue." Huo Qilin also knew that the company was about to go public and she had a lot of work to deal with every day, so he didn’t intend to stay and bother her.

"Okay." Xia Qingtian didn’t insist on him staying.

She thought Huo Qilin might need a quiet space to consider carefully.

Whether to give up the woman he loved or find a way for their love to thrive from a desperate situation!

...

For the next two days, both Bo Jingyan and Huo Qilin seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth.

Not wanting to eat alone, Xia Qingtian often invited Cheng Bingbing.

And it so happened that Cheng Bingbing had few scenes in the drama at the time and didn’t need to be on the set much. Not wanting to be alone with her thoughts, the two would commonly gather to eat and shop.

One day.

It happened to be the weekend.

Besides a few employees on duty, other people were all off in the company.

Xia Qingtian, as the boss of the company, didn’t want to overwork herself and therefore gave herself a two-day break.

Since she took over the company, most of her clothes, shoes, bags, and skincare, and makeup products were sent directly to the mansion or to the company.

She hadn’t had a good shopping trip in a really long time!

Even if Xia Qingtian wasn’t lacking anything now, she still enjoyed the fun of shopping and picking out items she liked personally.

While shopping, they reached a mother-baby store.

Cheng Bingbing had previously visited it along with Huo Qilin, and was alarmed by Huo Qilin’s excessive shopping spree.

Seeing Xia Qingtian pulling her into the store, she was hesitant, afraid that she would go on a wild shopping spree like Huo Qilin.

Despite Xia Qingtian having enough money, she still didn’t want her to spend too much.

Regardless of whether she wanted to, Xia Qingtian’s attitude was firm, and without even allowing her to refuse, she forcefully dragged her into the mother-baby store filled with eye-catching merchandise.

Cheng Bingbing followed Xia Qingtian, quickly stating, "Sister Qingtian, please don’t buy anything for the baby in my belly."

"Don’t worry, I am buying for An’an." Holding a remote control toy and admiring it, Xia Qingtian said, "As for the one in your belly, we don’t even know its gender yet, and it wouldn’t be able to play with the toys. It would just gather dust in storage."

"Besides, these children’s toys get updated very quickly. In just a few months, the latest models will be out. Shopping is so convenient now that there’s no need to rush. We can buy after the baby is born."

Her words resonated deeply with Cheng Bingbing.

"Sister Qingtian, you’re absolutely right. That’s exactly what I think," she agreed.
