Chapter 745: Chapter 745: Wanting to Marry Him as a Wife_1

Shi Qian never expected that the puppet doctor she had bribed would dare to threaten her. Rage made her chest heave violently.

"How dare you!" she retorted, her anger barely hidden.

The attending doctor’s life was hanging by a thread, and he had no time for niceties.

"What is there that I wouldn’t dare?" he threatened Shi Qian defiantly, "I’m just an accomplice at most; you’re the real culprit. If you push me too far, I’ll go confess to Bo Jingyan, then turn you in. It could be considered my atonement."

Shi Qian was at her boiling point, yet she had to hold back her temper.

The consequences the doctor mentioned were unbearable for her.

She had no choice but to be patient and placate him, "Calm down, I was just too emotional earlier. Think for yourself, even if this gets out, even if you manage to live, at what cost? You’ll lose everything, living a life of poverty, that’d be worse than death."

Fearing the loss of everything he had was why the doctor contacted Shi Qian; it was his desperate last straw.

If not for overhearing that someone had detected that Bo’s mother didn’t have a recurrence of cancer outside her ward, he would’ve fessed up to Bo Jingyan long ago.

Striving to calm himself, he said, "I’m giving you three days. If you can solve this, great. If you can’t, I lose everything, but living miserably is better than dying for your plots."

Suppressing her fury, Shi Qian soothed the attending doctor, "Rest assured, you’ve been working for me after all, I won’t let you get into trouble. I understand you were shocked. I’ll transfer this month’s money to you ahead of time, consider it to comfort you."

The prospect of getting money earlier and Shi Qian’s compromise somewhat reassured the attending doctor.

Seeing him calmed down, Shi Qian also heaved a sigh of relief.

Not wanting to waste more time debating, she made up an excuse to end the call, "I have work to do, so I’ll leave you be for now."

She was about to hang up.

"Wait..." The attending doctor seemed to remember something, "Remember, I’m only giving you three days to solve this. Even a ton of money won’t help if you fail."

"Got it." Impatient, Shi Qian answered, then hung up the phone.

After the call, Shi Qian could no longer hold back her anger. She swept all the makeup off the table in front of her onto the floor; yet that still wasn’t enough to satisfy her.

Picking up a cup, she fiercely smashed it against the mirror. The reflective surface shattered, shards scattering everywhere.

Hearing the commotion from outside, someone quickly rushed in.

Seeing the mess in the dressing room, they asked in confusion, "What happened?"

After venting, Shi Qian’s frayed nerves had calmed down a bit. To maintain her image in the entertainment industry, she couldn’t let people think she had a bad temper or had trashed the dressing room.

She summoned a smile and feigned apology, "I tried to get up earlier, but I hadn’t eaten because of the event and had some low blood sugar. I lost my balance and accidentally knocked the table. I’m sorry for the trouble."

"Don’t worry about your stuff, I’ll compensate you at cost for everything I damaged."

Given Shi Qian’s friendly attitude and offer to pay for the damages...

Regardless of whether they believed her explanation or not, the staff showed their understanding, "Ms. Shi, as long as you are okay."

True to her word, Shi Qian compensated for everything before leaving the event venue.

Usually after an event, she would rush back to Bo’s mother, banking on the woman’s approval to see and marry Bo Jingyan.

In the face of the doctor’s implicit threat, however, how could she dare return?

He had only given her three days to sort this out. If she failed, he would expose her.

But even if he didn’t expose her...

Once Bo Jingyan found out that his mother’s cancer hadn’t returned, he’d investigate. And she couldn’t escape the repercussions.

This issue had to be resolved discreetly!

Although she wasn’t capable of handling it herself, she did have others who could help.

As she thought about it, Shi Qian dialed a number on her phone.

...

Bo Jingyan was always decisive in his actions.

Suspicious of his mother’s illness, he chose not to transfer her to a different hospital.

The current hospital was the best private one in A City, with the most advanced medical equipment and talented doctors.

If Bo’s mother’s cancer truly hadn’t returned...

The issue would lie with the people, not the machines. And it could be fixed by changing the personnel.

Bo Jingyan contacted the original doctor who had performed the bone marrow transplant for his mother. He planned to have a detailed examination and assessment for her.

That doctor, after the successful operation, had gone abroad to further his studies. Since he wasn’t around when Bo’s mother’s cancer had recurred, she had a new attending physician. In light of the complex nature of Bo’s mother’s health condition, it felt safer to have the old doctor back.

On the day of Bo’s mother’s health check...

Not only Bo Jingyan was there, but also the old Chinese medicine physician, Bo’s mother’s attending physician, and Shi Qian.

Shi Qian was initially scheduled to attend a promotional event for a brand she was endorsing, but she insisted on being there because she was worried about Bo’s mother’s health.

She held onto Bo’s mother’s hand, saying, "Losing a job is only losing some money, but you, Bo’s mother, are much more important to me. You are the only one who has been kind to me since my mother passed away. In my heart, I consider you my mother, so I want to be by your side."

Bo’s mother felt incredibly heartwarmed upon hearing this.

She had grown genuinely fond of Shi Qian. Now to receive such affection in return, she felt it was all worth it.

"Okay," she patted Shi Qian’s hand, "stay here then. Losing a job opportunity doesn’t matter. Once I recover, I’ll get you more resources and make you the hottest star in the entertainment industry."

Shi Qian pursed her lips.

She wished she could tell Bo’s mother that compared to being the biggest star, she’d rather be Bo Jingyan’s wife.

If Bo’s mother really cared for her, she should try to persuade her son to marry her.
