Chapter 830: Chapter 830 Accidentally Stepped into a Trap

Xia Qingtian felt that this matter was indeed a bit troublesome.

If she hadn’t guessed wrong, Shi Qian might have grown suspicious of her and Bo Jingyan after hearing Huo Qilin’s words.

She found this matter a bit tricky, but seeing that Cheng Bingbing seemed a bit uneasy, she didn’t say anything and simply said, "Okay, I know, and I’ll handle it. Don’t worry."

Upon hearing her say that, Cheng Bingbing felt relieved.

She was somewhat worried and once again urged, "Qingtian, you must be careful!"

Only when Xia Qingtian agreed did she feel relieved and hang up the phone.

Xia Qingtian held the disconnected phone, her face devoid of the ease she had when talking to Cheng Bingbing over the phone. She put away her phone and paced back and forth in her office before finally deciding to discuss the matter with someone.

And the only person she could discuss it with was Bo Jingyan.

She decided to go to Bo Group to discuss things with Bo Jingyan.

She first called Bo Jingyan to make sure he was at the company and had time to meet her, then immediately grabbed her car keys and left.

Time was pressing on this occasion, and Xia Qingtian couldn’t be bothered with makeup and disguise. She simply wore a hat, covered her face with a mask and hat, and completely concealed her identity to make sure no one would recognize her.

Bo Jingyan knew she was coming and likely had notified the receptionist in advance.

The front desk didn’t stop her; she made her way unobstructed to the president’s office and relayed to Bo Jingyan what Cheng Bingbing had said on the phone.

After Xia Qingtian finished speaking, she looked at Bo Jingyan.

Bo Jingyan continued to wear an expressionless face, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking.

She pushed Bo Jingyan’s arm and asked, "What do you think about what I just said?"

Bo Jingyan seemed to suddenly snap back to reality.

He reached out, affectionately ruffled Xia Qingtian’s soft hair, and said, "I understand. Leave this matter to me; I’ll handle it."

"What are you planning to do?" Xia Qingtian was curious.

Bo Jingyan did not answer her directly but simply said, "You don’t need to worry or do anything. I have it all figured out."

Xia Qingtian was somewhat dissatisfied with his response.

But thinking that Bo Jingyan might have other secret arrangements that he couldn’t share with her to avoid detection, she stopped pressing out of trust in him.

She believed that Bo Jingyan had the capability and means to handle the matter well and thus didn’t dwell on it any further.

The next day.

Despite having called and reassured Xia Qingtian, Cheng Bingbing remained somewhat uneasy. She insisted on coming to the office to ascertain in person whether she and Huo Qilin had caused any trouble for her and Bo Jingyan.

Not until Xia Qingtian repeatedly assured her that there was nothing to worry about, did she relax.

Even if Shi Qian really had any schemes, there was no need to fear.

In the past, Shi Qian’s schemes succeeded only because she and Bo Jingyan were unguarded and inadvertently fell into traps.

This time it was different; they were fully prepared.

If Shi Qian really planned to do something, it would provide them with the perfect opportunity to catch her in the act. It wouldn’t harm her and Bo Jingyan; instead, it would indirectly help them.

Cheng Bingbing finally relaxed completely.

She still wanted to say something more when suddenly...

Her phone rang abruptly. She took it out and saw to her surprise that it was Mrs. Huo calling.

She immediately looked at Xia Qingtian nervously, "Qingtian, what should I do? Why would Mrs. Huo suddenly call me? Could it be that Qilin and I slipped up somewhere?"

"Don’t be so nervous." Xia Qingtian stepped forward, took her slightly trembling hand in a reassuring manner, and said, "Whatever Mrs. Huo wants, you’ll know once you answer the call."

With Xia Qingtian by her side, Cheng Bingbing managed to regain some calm.

Her hand still trembled uncontrollably, but she firmly answered the call. The concern she had did not materialize. Mrs. Huo hadn’t contacted her, Cheng Bingbing, but rather the daughter of the Energy King.

Mrs. Huo was helping Huo Qilin set up a meeting with her.

"Qilin has prepared a surprise for you. He felt embarrassed calling you himself, so he asked me to arrange it," she concluded, then added, "Remember to attend on time tomorrow, don’t let down his heartfelt intentions for you."

"Okay, I understand, Aunt," Cheng Bingbing agreed.

Mrs. Huo was very pleased with her cooperation. "Then I won’t disturb you further, you go ahead."

After she hung up, Cheng Bingbing let out a long sigh of relief, feeling like she had just survived a disaster.

Seeing her current state, Xia Qingtian knew there was nothing to worry about.

"You’re not worried now, are you?" she said with a laugh looking at Cheng Bingbing.

"Indeed, there’s no need to worry now, but..." Cheng Bingbing wiped the nonexistent sweat from her forehead, showing a hint of distress.

"What’s wrong?" Xia Qingtian asked her.

Cheng Bingbing shared the conversation she just had with Mrs. Huo.

Then she frowned and said, "I find it a bit strange. Considering my relationship with Qilin, if he really wanted to prepare a surprise for me, he would find an excuse to ask me out instead of having Mrs. Huo call me."

Xia Qingtian also found this unusual and suggested, "Then call Qilin and ask what’s going on."

Cheng Bingbing nodded and called Huo Qilin.

However, she couldn’t reach him. She informed Xia Qingtian of this result.

Xia Qingtian thought to alleviate her worries. "If you’re still worried, I can ask Bo Jingyan to visit the Huo Family and check for you. After all, the Huo and Bo families hold similar statuses in A City, and they likely have business dealings, so it wouldn’t be hard for him to visit the Huo Family."

"There’s no need, really, Qingtian," Cheng Bingbing hastily declined, waving her hands, "I think it should be fine. Mrs. Huo doesn’t know my true identity and simply wants to match me with Qilin. Maybe there really is a surprise waiting tomorrow. Having Bo Jingyan visit the Huo Family might even arouse Mrs. Huo’s suspicion."

She had already caused a lot of trouble for Xia Qingtian and Bo Jingyan, so she didn’t want to waste more of their time.

Seeing her insistence,

And considering that lately Bo Jingyan had been busy dealing with company matters as well as investigating the person backing Shi Qian, he indeed had been quite busy.

She let the issue go.

She simply instructed Cheng Bingbing, "Alright then, if you run into any trouble, remember to call me and let me know. I’ll always help you."

"Sure, I know." Cheng Bingbing nodded firmly.

Regarding Xia Qingtian’s words, she had never harbored any doubts.
