The CEO’s Unkown Wife

Chapter 74: Chapter 74 The Golden House Conceals the Beauty_1 Chapter 74: Chapter 74 The Golden House Conceals the Beauty_1 “Is there a need to continue this conversation?” Bo Jingyan looked deeply into her eyes.

“…”

Alright then.

If Bo Jingyan felt there was no need for it, then she certainly had no reason to insist.

Xia Qingtian smiled awkwardly, took out a lunchbox from the cupboard, then put it on the bedside table.

At the aroma of the food, Bo Jingyan smiled satisfactorily.

She passed him the chopsticks and bowl, then watched as Bo Jingyan dug in, enjoying his meal as if it was a culinary masterpiece. One might think she had managed to make some rare delicacy that could impress the business prodigy so much.

Xia Qingtian sat aside, pondering curiously.

After Bo Jingyan finished eating, Xia Qingtian tidied up the utensils, put the lunchbox back into the bag, and noticed him looking deeply at her.

She paused all of a sudden and asked in confusion, “What’s up?”

“Have you eaten?” Bo Jingyan asked coldly.

Xia Qingtian shook her head. She planned to eat back at the office.

“From now on, you will eat with me.” Bo Jingyan’s eyes darkened, and he said coldly.

Xia Qingtian was taken aback and looked at him in surprise, ready to decline, “No need, I…”

“Xia Qingtian, don’t make me repeat myself.” Sensing what she was about to say, Bo Jingyan furrowed his brows and his expression instantly darkened, cutting off her words.

He didn’t understand.

Why was Xia Qingtian so hesitant to spend time with him?

Even a simple meal required repeated refusals.

Did she hate him that much?

The thought caused a feeling of oppression to surge in Bo Jingyan’s heart, causing his brows to furrow deeply.

Looking at her clean and refined face, his heart sank further, the discomfort reaching a peak.

Compared to her calm expression, he preferred the way she looked when she smiled.

“Fine.” Xia Qingtian bit her lip and reluctantly agreed.

Eating with Bo Jingyan…

She worried she wouldn’t get enough to eat.

He ate like a king, no matter how much she cooked, he would finish it all.

Not a drop of the soup was left at noon.

She questioned whether he was abused as a child and was starved.

With these thoughts, Xia Qingtian couldn’t help but raise her head to look at Bo Jingyan.

Feeling her gaze, Bo Jingyan turned his eyes towards her, looking deep into hers.

Their eyes met briefly in the air.

A strange emotion spread in her heart.

Xia Qingtian moved her gaze away cautiously, hurriedly tidied up and moved away.

Seeing her avoid him so quickly, Bo Jingyan became more displeased, “Why are you standing so far away? Do I have a virus?”

Did this woman have no conscience?

He was injured saving her, yet she was avoiding him?

Bo Jingyan scowled and snorted, “Xia Qingtian, come over here!!!”

“…”

Xia Qingtian steadied her irregular heartbeat, hid the abnormal flush on her cheeks, and moved closer step by step, “Mr. Bo, I was worried about disturbing your work, and I need to go back to work…”

“Eat before you leave.” Bo Jingyan’s face lightened a bit seeing her obedient demeanor.

He quickly made a call to order an exquisite lunch, ordered Xia Qingtian to sit down, and eat under his watch.

Xia Qingtian ate delicately and quietly, chewing in small bites.

Like a greedy and cautious little hamster, her cheeks bulged in turns, quite pleasing to the eye, making Bo Jingyan even hungrier.

This heated gaze kept fixing on Xia Qingtian as she ate, causing her ears to turn red ——
Why does Bo Jingyan keep watching me eat?

Didn’t he eat enough earlier?

This man is really a glutton, he ate so much at noon and now he’s coveting my lunch!

But, as he was injured…

“Mr. Bo, you…would you like to have some more?” Xia Qingtian asked sincerely, her eyes sparkling with an innocent gleam.

Her look tugged at his heart.

“…No need.” Bo Jingyan’s desire to share lunch with her faded at the thought that the food had not been prepared by Xia Qingtian herself. After a pause, he reminded her again, “Remember to prepare lunch for two tomorrow, and come to eat with me.”

Xia Qingtian, “…”

This was already more than two servings.

“…Okay.” Xia Qingtian turned her head involuntarily, her tiny heart throbbing uncontrollably under his deep gaze, as she continued eating.

After finishing her food, Xia Qingtian cleaned up and hurried back to the office, fearing that Bo Jingyan would come up with any sudden demands.

The project wasn’t completed yet; she had to go back to the Bo Family department to continue working on the amusement park case.

For some reason, there was an unusual hustle and bustle at the office.

“Qingtian, breaking news!!!” Amy rolled over in her office chair to Xia Qingtian’s side, and whispered, “Our big boss is hospitalised but keeping a chick under wraps, it was found out by the top management during a meeting! Everyone in the company is buzzing!”

Keeping a chick under wraps!

Xia Qingtian’s eyelids twitched severely, “That can’t be true, right?”

The high-ranking officials only heard her voice; she hadn’t revealed herself, right?

It was all Bo Jingyan’s fault for putting her on edge.

“Too many people heard it, could it be fake?” Amy said excitedly, “Boss Bo is handsome and rich, even his face and body alone could make him a superstar in the entertainment industry. I wonder what kind of beautiful goddess has captured his attention!”

Xia Qingtian’s heart thumped, she forced a smile, “Maybe it’s just the nurse, how could there be a mistress in a hospital…”

She was simply Bo Jingyan’s personal chef; rumors were indeed dreadful.

But for some reason, she felt a burning sensation on her cheeks.

Thinking that she and Bo Jingyan were combined in this unexpected way, a sweet sensation surged in her heart.

…

The next day.

Bo Jingyan’s grandfather visited the hospital.

To avoid revealing any secrets, he agreed on a time with Xia Qingtian to come before lunch.

“Grandfather, who told you this?”

Bo Jingyan was worried that his grandfather’s health hadn’t completely recovered from the shock last time and explained proactively, “I’m fine, it was just a small accident. You didn’t need to come.”

Bo’s grandfather rapped the bedrail and glared at him, “A car accident is a small accident, what is a big accident then? Do you have to break your arms and legs, or be on your deathbed, to let this old man know?”

Bo Jingyan awkwardly touched his nose.

“What exactly happened? How did you get hit? How did the driver drive?” Although he had asked Xia Qingtian, his experiences in the business world made him unable to help but think more.

A fierce light flashed in his eyes, “Was someone trying to harm you?”
