Chapter 79: Chapter 79. Do you want to kiss me?_1 Chapter 79: Chapter 79. Do you want to kiss me?_1 Xia Qingtian suddenly froze on the spot.
Why is Bo Jingyan asking again?
Thinking about how he was staring deeply into the leftovers in the kitchen a moment ago, her heart began to race.
Did he suspect something?
With these thoughts, Xia Qingtian’s hand couldn’t help but tremble.
Bo Jingyan said that this was the last chance he was giving her.
If she were to confess now that she was Shen Qing, could she be considered as limiting the damage in time?
Then she wouldn’t have to struggle so hard anymore, bearing such a heavy sense of guilt and pretending in front of Bo Jingyan.
She didn’t want to lie anymore.
She didn’t want to live in such fear every day, terrified of revealing even the slightest flaw.
Nor did she have to involve the old master Bo in the deception.
But…
Just thinking about Bo Jingyan’s ruthless methods of breaking people’s limbs made her shudder.
She feared that he would treat her the same way.
She didn’t want her limbs broken!!!
Xia Qingtian bit her lip, deeply embroiled in a struggle of pain and fear.
Tell him?
Or not?
“Why are you asking me this?” Xia Qingtian decided to test his reaction first before deciding whether to tell him.
She was really too scared!
Perhaps, for having cooked for him for so long, Bo Jingyan could show a little more leniency towards her.
“Because I hate being deceived the most!!!”
With a meaningful glance at her pale face, Bo Jingyan said coldly, “So it’s best you don’t lie to me, or else…”
“Or else what?” Xia Qingtian’s voice began to tremble.
On Bo Jingyan’s face, there was a cruel smile. He whispered one sentence from his thin lips that symbolised his cold-heartedness – “So it’s not too late for you to confess now.”
After saying that, his gaze quietly fell on Xia Qingtian’s porcelain-white innocent face, waiting patiently for her decision.
“I’ve nothing to hide from you.” Xia Qingtian lowered her gaze, not daring to meet his look.
She was afraid of revealing any flaws.
She didn’t want to be worse than dead!
She absolutely!
She absolutely couldn’t let Bo Jingyan know that she was Shen Qing!!!
In Bo Jingyan’s mind, she was only Xia Qingtian.
She could only be Xia Qingtian!!!
“Are you sure?” Bo Jingyan’s handsome brows immediately furrowed.
Xia Qingtian took a deep breath, looked into Bo Jingyan’s eyes, and said with complete certainty, “I’m sure. I have nothing to hide from you.”
She was extremely anxious deep down.
She didn’t know if Bo Jingyan would believe her just because of her word.
Bo Jingyan stared at the woman in front of him intently.
Her clear eyes reflected his figure, as if the whole world revolved only around him.
Bo Jingyan felt as if his heart was hit by something.
He didn’t want to question further.
“Okay, since you said so, I believe you.”
He picked up his chopsticks and continued to eat his noodles elegantly.
Xia Qingtian’s tense nerves finally started to relax.
She wiped the cold sweat off her forehead.
Did she pass this round?
After they finished eating, Bo Jingyan stood up and casting an intense look at Xia Qingtian said, “Let’s go.”
“Where to?” Xia Qingtian didn’t react immediately.
“To take you home. Or do you want to continue to stay in the old mansion?”
“Let’s go, let’s go, I will leave with you right now.” Xia Qingtian immediately got up and followed him out.
As the two of them exited the old mansion, Bo Jingyan’s phone rang.
He took it out and glanced at the screen.
It was Shen Yaxuan who had called, inviting him to have a few drinks at the bar.
“Sure, I’ll be there in a bit.” He agreed.
This would be a good time to ask Shen Yaxuan about the progress of the investigation he had asked him to undertake.
“Since you have other plans, there’s no need to drop me off. I can call a car myself.”
Xia Qingtian immediately opened the car door, ready to get out.
She wanted to conceal her identity as Shen Qing and planned to distance herself from him.
“Who told you to leave?” Bo Jingyan’s long fingers, smooth as jade, grabbed her wrist.
“Didn’t you say you were occupied?” Xia Qingtian tried to pull back her hand, which was getting warmer in his palm.
Bo Jingyan glanced at her struggling hand, a chill flickered in his cold gaze, “Don’t you want to be with me?”
“No…” Xia Qingtian shook her head, “I just don’t want to get in your way.”
“From now on, without my permission, you’re not allowed to leave my sight!” Bo Jingyan’s tone was filled with an unquestionable dominance.
That remark was loaded with possessiveness.
Xia Qingtian’s heart suddenly skipped two beats.
And then…
It began to hammer wildly.
What did Bo Jingyan mean by that?
Why did her heart race when she heard those words?
Before she could figure it out, Bo Jingyan suddenly leaned in, pressing closer.
Xia Qingtian was immediately enveloped in a strong wave of testosterone.
They were far too close to each other.
Bo Jingyan’s hot breath rained down on her cheek.
The temperature in the car rose incrementally, the air filled with a sticky ambiguity.
Xia Qingtian felt like she was gasping for air.
“What, what are you trying to do?” Her throat became dry and tight.
Seeing the enticing blush on her face, Bo Jingyan’s mood improved at once.
His usually deep and unreadable eyes twinkled with a bewitching smirk, and he asked, “What do you think?”
As he spoke, he not only didn’t pull away but moved even closer.
Xia Qingtian’s breaths turned even sharper in an instant.
Could Bo Jingyan be trying to kiss her?
Thinking about it, she subconsciously closed her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering like the wings of a crow.
Suddenly, she felt something tighten around her.
“Done!”
Bo Jingyan’s voice, tinted with amusement, rang out.
Xia Qingtian opened her eyes suddenly and looked down.
She noticed the seatbelt.
Fastened around her.
“You…” Xia Qingtian bit her lip, her face turning pale, then red as she stammered, “Were you just buckling my seatbelt?”
Bo Jingyan watched as her face changed colors, he chuckled, “Yes, what else would I be doing? Kissing you?”
Xia Qingtian felt utterly embarrassed.
“I didn’t think anything at all.” She turned her head away, not wanting to see this cunning man, let alone interact with him further.
Seeing her bashful and irritated expression, a hint of tenderness appeared in Bo Jingyan’s eyes.
Fearing that she would really be angry, he stopped teasing her, and took her home.
Before letting her out of the car, he reminded her, “It’s the weekend tomorrow, you don’t need to go to the office, remember to come over and cook for me.”
Xia Qingtian was speechless.
She couldn’t help but grumble inwardly.
Such a heartless capitalist.
Bo Jingyan sat in his car, watching Xia Qingtian go into the housing complex, before he left for the bar.
…
By the time Bo Jingyan arrived at the bar, Shen Yaxuan and his friends were already drunk and rowdy.
Knowing his fondness for quiet, Shen Yaxuan led him to the corner.
Bo Jingyan wrinkled his brows at the strong smell of alcohol on Shen Yaxuan, “Why are you drinking so much? Is something bothering you?”
What do you think?
