Chapter 751: Chapter 751: No One Can Take It From Her_1

After talking, Xia Qingtian and Cheng Bingbing couldn’t help but share a smile.

Just as Xia Qingtian was about to say something else, suddenly...

Her phone rang. She took it out and saw, to her surprise, that the incoming call was from Bo Jingyan.

Today was the first day of Bo’s mother’s chemotherapy, and she had been worried. Seeing that Bo Jingyan had called, she immediately lost any interest in continuing her conversation with Cheng Bingbing.

Cheng Bingbing accidentally saw the caller ID too.

Immediately showing understanding, she said, "Sister Qingtian, go attend to your business. The venue is almost all set up. I’ll just finish refining the process."

"I will just take a call, and I’ll be back shortly," Xia Qingtian assured her.

Without waiting for Cheng Bingbing to say anything else, she went to a quiet place to answer the call.

As soon as the call connected, Xia Qingtian asked anxiously, "How did it go? Was the chemotherapy successful today?"

"Yes, the chemotherapy went smoothly, especially since it was Doctor Chen who performed the surgery on her," Bo Jingyan said, knowing she had been thinking about this, so he called to reassure her.

After talking about Bo’s mother, he asked, "Are you free tonight? Would you like to have dinner together?"

Truth be told, Xia Qingtian was really tempted by his proposal.

Ever since Bo’s mother was diagnosed with cancer, and it was not due to Shi Qian’s manipulation, she had only seen Bo Jingyan once, and the rest of their communication was through phone calls.

While they could still see each other on the phone, it was not the same as meeting in person, where they could see and even touch each other.

But she had already promised Cheng Bingbing that she would be present at tonight’s event to support her, or else Cheng Bingbing would be nervous and scared on her own. This was about Cheng Bingbing’s happiness for the rest of her life, and she definitely couldn’t stand her up.

At the same time, she was reluctant to pass up the chance to meet Bo Jingyan.

Xia Qingtian was almost torn apart by this dilemma.

Seeing her silence, Bo Jingyan immediately sensed something and asked, "Are you busy?"

After a long hesitation, Xia Qingtian still didn’t abandon her principles.

"I’m sorry..." She clenched her teeth, and with a heavy heart, refused Bo Jingyan, apologizing guiltily, "I really have an important event tonight and I can’t have dinner with you. Can we do it some other time?"

Bo Jingyan didn’t say anything.

With caution, Xia Qingtian asked, "Are you angry?"

Bo Jingyan remained silent. A still and silent atmosphere gradually enveloped them.

Xia Qingtian looked at her phone, but even though the call was still going, he didn’t respond. She immediately pleaded, "Don’t be mad, I’ll make it up to you gradually, ok?"

"Fool." Bo Jingyan’s voice was still cold, yet held a touch of tenderness. "I was just teasing you. How could I bear to be angry with you?"

Even if he was angry with himself, he couldn’t bear to be angry with Xia Qingtian.

Xia Qingtian immediately laughed, "You’re really annoying. I thought you were really angry with me. You almost scared me to death."

She was truly smitten by Bo Jingyan, allowing him total control over her feelings.

"Are you so afraid of me getting angry?" Bo Jingyan asked adoringly.

Xia Qingtian returned with a question, "What do you think?"

Bo Jingyan chuckled, "Remember, even if I’m angry at anyone, I’ll never be angry at you. Because in my heart, you can never do anything wrong, even if you did, it would still be right. Why would I have a reason to be angry at you?"

Xia Qingtian, overwhelmed by his sweet words, couldn’t help asking, "Did you put honey on your lips?"

"Originally I wanted to invite you over to taste whether I’ve put honey or not, but I was unfortunately declined," Bo Jingyan said with slight regret.

"You can try it another day," Xia Qingtian responded, sharing his regret.

"That’s the only way," Bo Jingyan said, his voice filled with regret. Then, as if remembering something, he asked, "By the way, does your previous offer to make it up to me still stand?"

Xia Qingtian couldn’t help but chuckle at his question.

Having been with him for so long, how could she not know what he was thinking? This so-called "making it up to him" obviously referred to something inappropriate for children. Yet, she did miss him.

So she indulgently said, "It stands!"

Hearing her satisfactory reply, Bo Jingyan’s last bit of dissatisfaction disappeared. He contentedly said, "Then, when you have time, let’s make an appointment. Just don’t beg for mercy too easily."

His words instantly brought Xia Qingtian back to those passionate nights with him.

Even without Bo Jingyan doing anything, she felt a bit hesitant and weak in the knees. But she had already agreed to him earlier, surely she couldn’t back out so quickly?

She felt she couldn’t continue the conversation with Bo Jingyan.

Instead of responding, she evaded by saying, "Ah, I have something else to handle. I’ll talk to you later."

Without waiting for Bo Jingyan’s response, she hung up the call.

Bo Jingyan, who was hung up on, showed no sign of anger. In fact, he couldn’t help but chuckle.

When Shi Qian returned from a walk with Bo’s mother, she saw Bo Jingyan’s face, weak but filled with warm, doting smiles. She immediately felt alarm bells ringing in her heart.

Who was he talking to on the phone? Why was he smiling so gently and fondly?

Shi Qian, with a woman’s intuition, was sure that Bo Jingyan had just been talking to a woman.

Unable to resist, she probed, "Brother Jingyan, who were you talking to just now?"

Seeing Shi Qian, Bo Jingyan’s smile disappeared, and he resumed his usual aloof expression. In front of Bo’s mother, he didn’t ignore Shi Qian, but responded casually, "A client."

Shi Qian was certain the person on the other end of the phone call was definitely not a client. He was lying!

But she was not angry. When a man is willing to lie to you, it shows that you hold a unique place in his heart. Therefore, Bo Jingyan, by being willing to lie to her, indicates that she has slowly made her way into his heart.

This was good news for her.

As for the woman on the other end of Bo Jingyan’s call, as long as it wasn’t Xia Qingtian, other women didn’t even matter to Shi Qian.

Because she had won over Bo’s mother, without the latter’s support, no other woman could marry into the Bo family.

The seat of Mrs. Bo could only belong to her, Shi Qian, and no one could take that away.

Due to her recent discovery, Shi Qian’s ambition swelled immensely.

She looked at Bo Jingyan with burning intensity, her eyes full of intense ambition and desire. She didn’t mention the phone call just now, but instead said, "Brother Jingyan, you said before that you owed me a favor. Does that still stand?"
