“The identity of the woman who tried to hit Sister-in-law has been found. She’s the illegitimate daughter invested by the Zhao Corporation. Brother, do you want to meet her?”

Bo Jinchuan replied coldly, “No need.”

He stood up and said, “Zhao Shi probably thinks that she’s a little long, so I’ll help them.”

Bo Jinghang shrugged nonchalantly and asked,

“Aren’t you going to ask her the reason?”

“No need.”

That was the end of the conversation.

Bo Jinhang watched as Bo Jinchuan disappeared into the corridor before frowning. He stood up and walked out of the door.

After returning to his room, Bo Jinchuan washed up and stood under the warm breeze in the bathroom for a long time. Only when his body was completely warm did he walk out of the bathroom. He carefully lifted the blanket and lay beside Shen Fanxing.

In her daze, Shen Fanxing felt the blanket being lifted. However, she didn’t feel any coldness. Instead, she felt warmth.

A familiar scent wafted into her nose. In her sleep, she instinctively moved towards Bo Jinchuan. The closer she got, the warmer she felt.

Bo Jinchuan held her body gently and planted a kiss on her forehead.

Even though Bo Jinchuan was beside her, Shen Fanxing’s mind was filled with the moment her mother leaped.

He couldn’t stop her in time and couldn’t touch her body. There was a thud when he fell into the water.

This scene replayed repeatedly in her mind until it became herself.

She was forcefully pulled into the sea by Shen Qianrou. She struggled with all her might and shouted for help. Then, something pulled her down forcefully. The seawater entered her ears and nose. It was suffocating…n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Cold, it was extremely cold…

In the middle of the night, Shen Fanxing frowned. Her face was pale and her face was covered in sweat. Her breathing felt like it was being strangled and she was suffocating for a long time.

“Fanxing, Fanxing, wake up…”

Shen Fanxing was shocked when her body swayed. She gradually regained consciousness and her breathing relaxed. Her chest heaved and she panted heavily.

She opened her eyes and Bo Jinchuan’s handsome face entered her vision. When he saw her eyes, his stiff gaze relaxed.

Shocked, Bo Jinchuan wiped the sweat off Shen Fanxing’s forehead.

Shen Fanxing’s breathing gradually stabilized. Seeing Bo Jinchuan’s dark expression, she grabbed his hand.

“I’m fine… I just had a nightmare.” Her voice was still hoarse, clearly frightened by the nightmare.

Bo Jinchuan lowered his gaze and looked at her deeply. “What does it mean to you? Fanxing, you have to rely on me and not think about how you won’t cause me trouble.”

“I…”

Shen Fanxing paused, as though her heart had been stabbed.

Bo Jinchuan leaned towards her and pecked her lips.

“Make me think you need me, okay?”

Shen Fanxing fluttered her eyelashes and said, “You might not understand, but your appearance has saved me. How can I not need you?”

As she spoke, she shrank into his embrace. “I dreamed that I was drowning just now. I was cold and tired. Fortunately, you were there. Otherwise, I might have suffocated from the dream…”

Bo Jinchuan caressed her shoulder gently.

Look at how high a hat she had given him. Her presence was really strong.

She sighed helplessly. Forget it, she was too capable.

If she didn’t need him, he would pester her in the future.

In the latter half of the night, she fell asleep in Bo Jinchuan’s arms. Although she slept well, her tense body suddenly weakened. Not only did she not recover the next day, but she was also trapped in bed by Bo Jinchuan because of the cold.

Her body went limp and Shen Fanxing had no intention of going anywhere.

The Bo family had been bustling with activity since morning.

Bo Jinchuan didn’t tell Shen Fanxing that the Bo family was having a gathering tonight.

Most importantly, her body wouldn’t allow it.

Moreover, his two uncles, aunts and children weren’t well-behaved. Furthermore, Grandpa was going to invite Yuan Sichun tonight, so he wouldn’t let Shen Fanxing attend the gathering.

It was obvious that Grandpa wanted Fanxing to let bygones be bygones.

But he couldn’t. This matter wasn’t over with him.

In his memory, the most vulnerable time he had seen her was when they met. In the hospital, she had been betrayed by Su Heng and Shen Qianrou. She had been ostracized by her family and barely survived.

And now, she had only been in Hong Kong for a few days, but she had been tortured to this extent. He needed to give her an explanation.

Bo Jinchuan watched as Shen Fanxing finished her breakfast and drank the medicine. Then, she fell asleep again.

The front hall was bustling with noise and excitement. Second Uncle, Bo Yuelin, and Third Uncle, Bo Chengjiang, had to go to their respective companies to handle official business. Their families arrived one after another.

Lou Ruoyi was chatting with Quan Dong in the living room.

The few of them held a set of embroidery equipment in their hands and started to embroider.

Of course, Lou Ruoyi’s craziness back then had contributed to this.

This was also the only reason why Lou Ruoyi could force herself to sit with these two wontons.

After sitting for the entire morning, Shen Fanxing didn’t appear. Third Aunt Yuan Huixin glanced around the living room and couldn’t help but ask Lou Ruoyi,

“Sister-in-law, didn’t you say that Jinchuan’s fiancée is here? I haven’t been feeling well these few days and I haven’t had the chance to see her. Why isn’t she here?”

Lou Ruoyi said calmly, “Fanxing is sick and her body is weak. She can’t come out.”

“Oh, are you alright…”

“It shouldn’t be a big deal.”

“Oh, how about this…”

Yuan Huixin smiled regretfully.

Although she didn’t attend the banquet yesterday, she knew what she needed to know.

She had embarrassed the Yuan family so much last night, but she fell sick today. She wondered if this was retribution.

Second Aunt, Sun Yi, had the same smile as her husband. She looked gentle and virtuous.

When she heard that Shen Fanxing was sick, she put down her sewing and asked worriedly, “What illness? Are you alright? Since you’re here, let’s visit her.”

“Yes, yes…”

Lou Ruoyi sighed and shook her head. “He’s probably resting. Besides… Jinchuan said that he refuses to see guests.”

“Look at what Sister-in-law is saying. Can we still be considered guests?”

Lou Ruoyi smiled and said, “Today, I accompanied Old Master to the courtyard in Jinchuan and was rejected. If the two of you are not convinced, I can bring you there.”

Of course not!

She was asking to be humiliated!

Her eldest son was sometimes even harder to deal with than the Old Master.

A word or a look could scare someone to death.

He had clearly said that he wouldn’t see them. If they continued to follow him, wouldn’t they be digging their own graves?

In Bo Jinchuan’s courtyard, Shen Fanxing had taken a nap. Taking advantage of her illness, she pestered Bo Jinchuan for something.

Bo Jinchuan shook his head firmly and asked, “Why do you want that?”

“I like it!”

“You only like me!”

Shen Fanxing leaned against the headboard with a cup of hot water in her hand. “You didn’t even give me a gift and you want me to only like you?”

Bo Jinchuan frowned and said, “Then change it.”

“I don’t lack anything else. What I lack the most is a gun.”
