Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Punishment at Home_1 Chapter 241: Chapter 241: Punishment at Home_1 “I know Jingyan, he always follows through with his words. He said he wants you to abort the child, he won’t let you give birth to it. Can you really hide for nine months and until the baby is born?”

Chen Momo bit her lip; she had considered this too.

“In any case, as long as you get me out of here, I have a way to protect my child,”

She spoke with conviction, her voice tinged with an edge of madness. “No one can ruin my plan, not even Mr. Bo!!!”

Seeing that she already had a plan in mind, Shen Yaxuan said nothing more.

“Okay, I’ll help you!”

The two of them then discussed their method of escape.

After everything was set, they hung up the phone.

Around five in the early morning, a sudden fire broke out at a certain part of the villa, with the flames growing quickly.

The villa was instantly engulfed in chaos as the servants and several bodyguards rushed to put out the fire.

Chen Momo seized the opportunity to slip out of the villa unnoticed.

A car was already waiting for her outside the villa; once she got in, the car took her to the old house.

Just before dawn broke, she arrived there.

When the old Mr. Bo saw Chen Momo, he was somewhat surprised. “Momo, why are you looking for me so early in the morning?”

Before Chen Momo had a chance to answer, she fell to her knees in front of him.

“Grandpa, you must save me, save the child in my stomach!” Her eyes were red and she pleaded pitifully.

Old Mr. Bo was puzzled by her words, “Momo, what has happened? When did you get pregnant? Who is the father of the child?”

“It’s Mr. Bo’s!” Chen Momo replied.

“What did you say?” Old Mr. Bo doubted if he had heard her correctly.

How could the child in her stomach be Jingyan’s?

After all, he already had Qingtian.

Moreover, he found it hard to believe that his beloved grandson would do such a despicable thing.

“Grandpa, the child in my belly is Mr. Bo’s!!!” Chen Momo repeated tearfully.

Old Mr. Bo’s expression suddenly turned very serious, “What exactly has happened between you and Jingyan? Why are you carrying his child? And why do you need me to save you?”

Chen Momo dared not disclose too much details, for fear of revealing any discrepancies, so she said,

“Mr. Bo got drunk one night and mistook me for Qingtian… I didn’t want to disrupt their relationship, but I never thought that because of that night, I would become pregnant with his child.”

“Grandpa, you know that my parents have passed away and my brother has always been out of town. I’m all alone with no one to rely on. Now I finally have a child connected by blood, and I want to keep him, but Mr. Bo forced me to terminate the pregnancy. I really have no other choice, so I came to you. Only you can help me.”

With that, fearing that the old Mr. Bo would refuse to help her, she began to kowtow. “Grandpa, you must help me. I really don’t want to lose the child in my belly.”

Old Mr. Bo’s face darkened but he did not lose his temper.

Suppressing his anger, he helped Chen Momo up from the ground. “Momo, get up first. We’ll wait until Jingyan comes over to discuss.”

Although he thought Chen Momo would not make up such an easily debunked lie, he still wanted to call Bo Jingyan over to clarify things.

Hearing that Bo Jingyan would be arriving soon, Chen Momo felt somewhat scared.

However, with Old Mr. Bo there, as long as he agreed to help her keep the child in her belly, Bo Jingyan would have no choice but to go along.

Thinking of this, she nodded her head. “Okay.”

Old Mr. Bo instructed his butler to call Bo Jingyan and ask him to come to the old house.

Then, as if remembering something, he added, “Ask Xia Qingtian to come along as well.”

Since Chen Momo was carrying Jingyan’s child, as Jingyan’s wife, Xia Qingtian should be made aware.

At this moment, Bo Jingyan already knew that Chen Momo had escaped from the villa.

Just as he was wondering where Chen Momo had run off to and what she wanted to do, he received a call from his butler asking him to bring Xia Qingtian to the old house.

Fearing that something might have happened to the old Mr. Bo, he asked the bodyguards to continue searching for Chen Momo while he and Xia Qingtian headed to the old house.

On the way to the old house, Bo Jingyan attempted to start a conversation with Xia Qingtian, who was sitting beside him.

But she simply stared out the window with an icy expression, dismissive and unwilling to have anything to do with Bo Jingyan. He sighed, feeling a bit helpless.

Ever since Xia Qingtian overheard the conversation between Chen Momo and him at Bo Group, she had been acting like this.

Soon, they reached the old house.

Upon seeing the sprightly Old Mr. Bo, the couple breathed a sigh of relief.

They had been worried that the sudden call was due to an emergency involving Old Mr. Bo.

Bo Jingyan asked, “Grandpa, why did you ask us to come over? Was there an issue?”

Before Old Mr. Bo had a chance to answer him, a timid voice rang out…

“Mr. Bo…”

Xia Qingtian and Bo Jingyan turned around, only to see—

Chen Momo!!!

Bo Jingyan hadn’t expected that, after escaping from the villa, Chen Momo would appear at the old house.

He instantly guessed why Old Mr. Bo had suddenly called him and Xia Qingtian back.

A wicked look flashed across his eyes as he glanced at Chen Momo.

Chen Momo recoiled in fear and retreated behind Old Mr. Bo.

She knew that what she was doing would likely upset Bo Jingyan. But if it would ensure that she could keep the baby in her belly and bring her honor and glory in the future, then it was worth it.

With this in mind, her resolution became all the more steadfast, but the expression on her face was apologetic. “I’m sorry, Mr. Bo. But to protect the flesh and blood in my belly, I had to take this step.”

Bo Jingyan remained expressionless upon hearing this, showing no signs of changing his mind.

Seeing this, Chen Momo looked wearily at Old Mr. Bo. “Grandpa, please help me…”

Avoiding Chen Momo’s plea, Old Mr. Bo turned to look at Bo Jingyan. “Jingyan, is what Momo said true? Is the child in her belly really yours?”

“Yes!” Bo Jingyan hid his emotions, admitting to the truth.

Old Mr. Bo’s face turned very grim. He raised his cane and smacked Bo Jingyan on the back.

“You little brat! How dare you do something so disgraceful? Didn’t I teach you better when you were young?” he reprimanded, while continuing the assault. “Is this how you treat Qingtian? Is this how you treat Momo?”

Bo Jingyan stood his ground, silently bearing the punishment.

Old Mr. Bo’s anger grew. He turned to his butler and commanded, “Bring out the family punishment!”
