Chapter 83 - 83 83 What is your relationship_1

?Chapter 83: Chapter 83 What is your relationship_1 Chapter 83: Chapter 83 What is your relationship_1 Xia Qingtian was scared to death, a weak smile emerged on her face, “No.”

Having said that, she came to her senses.

That’s right, she hadn’t done anything wrong.

She went out shopping with Chen Momo today, she didn’t cook dinner, and she had taken the day off. What she wanted to do was her own business.

Xia Qingtian turned around, freeing the back of her collar from Bo Jingyan’s grasp.

She felt much more confident, “I was just shopping with a friend, there’s nothing to say.”

Bo Jingyan glanced at her elegant and composed face, which irritated him even more.

This woman seemed relentless unless faced with imminent disaster.

He couldn’t be bothered to beat around the bush, so he went straight to the point, “It’s about Shen Qing!”

About Shen Qing?

Xia Qingtian’s face changed immediately.

What did he mean?

Why would he suddenly mention Shen Qing?

Did he know something?

Or was he just intentionally testing her?

Xia Qingtian unconsciously licked her lips, slowly balling up her fists. The nails on her hands were almost digging into her palms.

The pain in her palm brought her back to her senses.

“What about Shen Qing?” She decided to clarify things first.

In case Bo Jingyan was just trying to test her.

She couldn’t accidentally reveal the truth!

Previously, Bo Jingyan had given her three chances to confess, but she had said nothing.

If she confessed now, it would undoubtedly end badly for her.

Seeing her playing dumb, Bo Jingyan’s face grew even colder, “I told you, I hate liars the most. Why do you insist on lying to me again and again?”

If it weren’t for the woman standing in front of him, he might have strangled her already.

Xia Qingtian’s face turned pale, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

Bo Jingyan noticed her pale face, “What? Have nothing to say?”

He took steps towards Xia Qingtian, forcing her backward.

Xia Qingtian immediately thought of those who had been crippled by Bo Jingyan.

She was trembling in sheer terror, retreating again and again.

“You, don’t come over!”

Bo Jingyan ignored this.

He cornered Xia Qingtian against the wall, leaving her nowhere to run.

Seeing the fear in Xia Qingtian’s eyes, Bo Jingyan’s heart softened a bit.

“Explain!”

His thin lips parted, making an exception for her again.

If it had been anyone else who deceived him like this, they’d be buried six feet under already.

Xia Qingtian was now sure.

Bo Jingyan must have known something for sure, he wasn’t just testing her.

Her upright posture finally collapsed.

Xia Qingtian lowered her gaze, hiding the sorrow in her eyes.

“Sorry, I admit it, I lied, I’m Shen…”
“Why did you say that you didn’t know Shen Qing?”

Both voices spoke at the same time.

Xia Qingtian’s sentence was abruptly cut short.

She looked up at Bo Jingyan in disbelief, “What did you say?”

Did she hear wrong?

Bo Jingyan repeated indulgently, “You say you don’t know Shen Qing, then why were you shopping with her?”

“Don’t say anything more. I don’t know Shen Qing, we just happened to be shopping in the same store.”

Not intending on listening to more of Xia Qingtian’s excuses, he simply blocked any potential paths, “You two were hand in hand, laughing together, it looked very intimate. I saw it.”

This time, Xia Qingtian heard clearly.

She and Shen Qing were hand in hand, laughing together?

The one she was holding hands with just now was clearly Chen Momo.

Not Shen Qing at all.

“Are you talking about her?” Xia Qingtian pointed uncertainly in the direction of the changing room.

“Yes!” Bo Jingyan fixed his gaze on her deeply, “Don’t tell me, she’s not Shen Qing!”

Xia Qingtian finally understood.

It turns out that Bo Jingyan, for whatever reason, mistook Chen Momo for Shen Qing.

She immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

She thought that Bo Jingyan knew she was Shen Qing.

Luckily, she didn’t confess earlier.

Since Bo Jingyan mistook Momo for Shen Qing, might as well let it be.

Anyway, Momo and Bo Jingyan didn’t cross paths.

It won’t have too much of an impact on her life.

Thinking of this, Xia Qingtian twisted her fingers, suppressing her conscience and admitted, “I admit, I do know Shen Qing. She’s my best friend.”

“Why did you say you didn’t know Shen Qing before?” Bo Jingyan’s cold voice revealed a hint of sharpness.

“That’s because…” Xia Qingtian hadn’t thought of her excuse on the spot.

Her heart was beating fast out of nervousness.

She licked her dry lips.

Seeing her hesitating, Bo Jingyan’s gaze became even darker, stern.

Xia Qingtian felt a chill running down her spine, and suddenly…

Her eyes lit up.

She had an idea!

“Because I know, you hate Shen Qing. If you know we’re best friends, you would vent your anger on me…” She quickly thought up an explanation.

Fearing Bo Jingyan wouldn’t believe her, she continued, “Also, the reason I rejected your offer to be a chef is the same. Why else would I turn down such a good-paying job? The only reason I agreed to be your private chef is because the penalty for breaking the contract is too high, and I just couldn’t afford it.”

After finishing, she looked up nervously at Bo Jingyan.

She didn’t know if he would be satisfied with this explanation.

Bo Jingyan narrowed his profound eyes and continued, “Then why didn’t you react at all when grandpa mentioned Shen Qing yesterday?”

Xia Qingtian bit her lip.

“Because Mr. Bo misunderstands me. If I admit my relationship with Shen Qing, he will definitely detest me more, thinking that I was seducing my best friend’s husband, and that I lack morals.”

“…” Bo Jingyan’s expression froze for a moment upon hearing her words.

So, the reason Xia Qingtian was brought to Apricot Forest Bay by Gu Jinchuan that day was because she wanted to see Shen Qing?

Shen Qing is someone else, not Xia Qingtian.

The only thing she wanted to hide was the fact that she and Shen Qing were best friends!

Seeing that he remained silent, Xia Qingtian felt extremely anxious.

She didn’t know if her words could pass the test.

She carefully raised her head, glanced at Bo Jingyan, “Mr. Bo, I didn’t mean to lie to you. You won’t have someone break my arms and legs, will you?”

Bo Jingyan looked at her steadily.

The fear and anxiety in her eyes were almost overflowing.

Bo Jingyan’s heart was suddenly filled with pity, “Don’t worry, I won’t hurt you.”

He had gone through so much trouble just to find her!

How could he bear to hurt her?

“Thank you.” Xia Qingtian breathed a sigh of relief, a smile spreading across her face.

Seeing the radiant smile on her face, Bo Jingyan’s expression also softened.

She looked even better when she smiled.

Xia Qingtian didn’t know what Bo Jingyan was thinking about, but now that the crisis had been resoloved, she swiftly ushered him out.

“Mr. Bo, you must be quite busy, you don’t need to worry about me anymore.” She directly showed him out.

Chen Momo had just gone to change her clothes and should be coming out soon.

If the two of them ran into each other, her lie will be exposed.

She just wanted Bo Jingyan to leave here as soon as possible.

Sometimes, what you fear the most is what happens.

Just as Xia Qingtian finished her sentence.

“Qingtian, Qingtian…” From not far away, Chen Momo’s voice suddenly rang out.
