Chapter 34 -34: Her Little Lover_1
Meanwhile, at Bo Group headquarters.
Against the backdrop of the window, Bo Jingyan stood tall, staring at the room outside. The dimming glow of the setting sun bathed him, cloaking him in a layer of mellow luster.
As the darkness steadily swept over the sky, Bo Jingyan picked up his phone and glanced at the time. His pupils darkened.
It was about time.
Gathering himself, he moved towards his desk, took his coat draped over the chair, and left his office in strides.
Before leaving, he asked Jiang Xuan to inspect the completion status of South District Mall on his behalf and report back before ten that night.
Jiang Xuan was somewhat taken aback, but he dared not question his command and agreed to it without hesitation.
The South District Mall… Wasn’t it just the starting of construction this month?
Why did the president ask him for an inspection at this point?
After giving away the commands, Bo Jingyan proceeded to the parking lot once he made sure Jiang Xuan had left. Seeing the driver waiting next to the car, he approached with a frosty face and blandly spoke, “I won’t need you tonight. Take a rest.”
“Yes, Mr. President.” Overjoyed at suddenly being given a break, the driver thanked him repeatedly before leaving.
He sent everyone off.
Bo Jingyan got into the car and sat in the driver’s seat. With his hands gripping the steering wheel, his cold gaze was filled with deep shadows.
He had this unsettling feeling… That his grandfather and Shen Qing were plotting behind his back!
He wasn’t sure how many of his grandfather’s spies were around him.
But to be on the safe side, he decided to confront Shen Qing alone this time.
Hmm.
Now, he would see where Shen Qing could run off to.
With that thought, Bo Jingyan’s eyes darkened. He started the engine with one hand and turned the steering wheel with a poker face.
The car quickly exited the parking lot and made its way onto the road.
Following the GPS, Bo Jingyan drove into the residential area where the Xia family lived. After glancing at the map on the electronic screen and noticing that the distance between Apricot Forest Bay and their location wasn’t far, he couldn’t help but to frown.
A cautious one she is.
Bo Jingyan chuckled coldly and soon found the Xia Mansion.
The Xia family lived in a two-story cottage situated in a corner of the residential area. Easy to miss if you’re not paying close attention. After their company fell into debt, Xia Guohua sold their previous villa and moved here to avoid the creditors.
Bo Jingyan glanced at the word “Xia Mansion” on the front gate, got out of the car, and walked to the entrance with a cold expression.
The front door was open, allowing the sound of women’s laughter to seep out.
A cold smile traced Bo Jingyan’s face and, without hesitation, he walked through the open door.
Inside the living room…
Chen Momo was sitting on the sofa with a handsome young man.
She played with the cake on the table and said cheerfully, “Qingtian’s birthday is coming up in a few days. She will never expect me to celebrate for her in advance. Hide the cake and bring it out later when I give you a signal.”
“Okay.” The man nodded in agreement, his eyes filled with anticipation. He muttered, “It’s been three years since Qingtian left. I wonder how she’s been.”
When she left, there were things that he hadn’t had a chance to say.
A delay that had lasted three years.
He wondered if there was a chance to make up for it now.
“Brother, Qingtian is doing well. We just met a few days ago,” Chen Momo responded cheerfully.
Comforted by her words, Chen Xuanyu felt much better. The two began chatting about Xia Qingtian again.
Suddenly…
Chen Momo noticed a shadow at the door.
Thinking it was Xia Qingtian who had returned, she hurriedly touched Chen Xuanyu’s shoulder and whispered, “Quick, hide behind the sofa.”
“Alright!”

Chen Xuanyu got up and was preparing to run towards it with the cake, but when he looked up, he was rooted to the spot at the sight of the man at the entrance.
At the door stood a tall man, dressed in black.
The man’s expression was unreadable, his facial features were sharp, and his dark eyes sparkled with a captivating chill.
He stood there emitting a compelling nobility.
His gaze soon settled on Chen Momo. Unconsciously furrowing his brows, he examined her from head to toe.
Chen Momo felt the pressure from his gaze and stood up in discomfort. Worrying that he was an important guest of the Xia family, she cautiously asked, “May I ask who you are? Is there anything I can help you with?”
“Where is Xia Guohua?” Bo Jingyan asked coldly.
“He hasn’t returned yet.” Chen Momo communicated with him and couldn’t help but feel nervous. Still, she found herself stealing glances at him.
This man… He’s so handsome!
Bo Jingyan stared intensely at Chen Momo’s face as an image of Jiang Xuan’s photo flashed through his mind. After careful comparison, he found that she looked somewhat similar to the woman in the photo.
This woman in front of him, can it be Shen Qing?
Bo Jingyan’s brows furrowed deeply as he inspected her with icy eyes.
Stifled under his gaze, Chen Momo held her breath, scarcely daring to move.
Seeing Bo Jingyan’s relentless stare at his sister, and sensing his hostility, Chen Xuanyu immediately pulled Chen Momo behind him, stared back at Bo Jingyan defiantly, and snapped, “What are you looking at?!”
At Chen Xuanyu’s words, Bo Jingyan’s gaze fell on him. Giving them a brief once-over, he let out a cold chuckle.
“If you are here for Xia Guohua, he should be back soon. Why don’t you sit down in the meantime?” Carefully tugging at Chen Xuanyu’s hand, Chen Momo moved from behind him and suggested cautiously.
The man before her exuded exclusivity and wealth. If he happened to be an important guest of the Xia family and they offended him, it would be terrible!
Bo Jingyan glanced at her coldly without saying anything and turned to leave.
Seeing him leave, Chen Momo attempted to stop him but was held back by Chen Xuanyu.
“Momo, Qingtian will be back soon. Where are you going?”
Snapped back to reality, Chen Momo glanced towards the door and saw that Bo Jingyan had already left. She returned to the sofa and smiled at Chen Xuanyu.
However, her heart was fluttering uncontrollably.
Bo Jingyan left the cottage and headed for the gate.
At the same time, Xia Guohua, carrying some stuff, entered the premises. Lifting his head, he saw Bo Jingyan standing up front, and immediately froze.
“Mr. Bo, when did you arrive?” Seeing him, Xia Guohua’s expression lightened up. Taking a step closer, he exclaimed, “My daughter is at home. If you don’t mind, we can sit and chat inside. I can have her cook dinner for you!”
Watching Xia Guohua’s excitement, and recalling how he had just walked in on the intimate scene between Chen Momo and Chen Xuanyu, Bo Jingyan gave a cold smile.
“Mr. Xia, you probably don’t know who’s in there, do you?” Bo Jingyan replied with a frosty voice, his eyes like icy shards.
Xia Guohua paused, looking puzzled, glancing at the house and replied, “Apart from my daughter, is there anyone else?”
“Well, Mr. Xia, why don’t you take a look for yourself? I will say this, though – if any incident that could damage the Bo family’s reputation occurs, the consequences will be more than you can bear.”
