Bo Jingyu flashed a meaningful smile. "Since you've married me, you're my woman. It doesn't matter to me whether you're after the power and influence of the Bo family or the wealth and glory that come with me."
His words stunned everyone.
Especially Shen Shiyu. She felt as if those words were like a slap in the face, burning hot.
Didn't this mean that anyone could take her place? But Bo Jingyu used to care so much about her! Was it just her illusion?
Shen Shiyu's head was buzzing. She bit her lip and stared at Bo Jingyu in disbelief, trying to catch some other emotions in his eyes.
But he just maintained a faint smile, and his eyes were so unfathomable that it was impossible to guess his thoughts.
Shen Ximan was also stunned for a moment before she came to her senses. "What?"
"I mean, from now on, you are Mrs. Bo."
"..."
Shen Ximan's heart tightened. What kind of twist was this? Was Bo Jingyu using her to provoke Shen Shiyu?
The words "Mrs. Bo" were particularly harsh.
The fire of jealousy burned wildly in Shen Shiyu's chest. She had lost all her senses.
Looking at the veiled face, she had an idea and decided to go all out today.
Suddenly, Shen Shiyu walked up to Shen Ximan and, in front of everyone, yanked off the veil on her face, exposing the prominent scar on her face to everyone's gaze.
"Jingyu, don't be deceived by her! How could a girl like her be worthy of you?"
Shen Ximan was stunned, but she didn't panic. Instead, she stood there straight, waiting to accept everyone's strange looks.
She was used to it anyway. It wasn't a big deal.
On her soft oval face were delicate and three - dimensional features. Her bone structure was a bit plain, but it was still a face of a graceful beauty. It was a pity that the hideous scar on her right cheek was so prominent that it was hard to ignore.
Bo Jingyu's cold eyebrows twitched slightly, but there was still not much emotional fluctuation.
Shen Shiyu pursed her lips slightly. She was waiting for Bo Jingyu to fly into a rage, then kick this ugly girl out of the house and let her wander the streets.
However, Bo Jingyu slowly said, "Is this the upbringing of the Shen family? Is this how you slander your own sister?"
"Weren't you just saying how good you were to her? Why, now you're making her look so bad? How vicious can you be?"
These words hit Shen Shiyu like a thunderbolt. She stood there stiffly, knowing that her image was beyond redemption.
"Show the guest out."
Bo Jingyu didn't show any mercy and issued an order to expel the guest.
"It's not like this, Jingyu. Please listen to my explanation!"
Qian Li looked impatient. "So noisy."
He gave the butler a look, and the butler had her carried out.
Shen Shiyu was thrown out at the main gate. The attitude of the servant towards her took a sudden turn for the worse. "Miss Shen, please don't come again in the future."
This made Shen Shiyu almost faint from anger. She stared at the gate viciously and gritted her teeth. "A bunch of crazy people!"
"Bo Jingyu, how dare you humiliate me like this! I'll make you regret it!"
Fuming with anger, she went home. Yang Wan sensed something was wrong and immediately told Aunt Liang to send all the servants away, for fear that they would see another side of Shen Shiyu.
"My dear daughter, who made you so angry?"
Shen Shiyu threw her high - heels on the ground. "That bitch Shen Ximan! I want her to go to hell!"
"What happened?"
"Mom, don't ask! I'm so annoyed!"
Yang Wan was implicated but didn't dare to say anything more. After all, over the years, her precious daughter's personality had become more and more strange and irritable. Sometimes even she couldn't handle her when she got angry.
"No, I must get even today!"
"I'll go to the basement to deal with that little bastard. Mom, call that bitch and tell her to come back, or she'll bear the consequences!"
There was a pent - up anger in Shen Shiyu's chest. The venom in her eyes made Yang Wan beside her feel a bit cold.
She quickly reminded her, "Be careful. Don't kill her!"
"Got it!"
At the Bo family mansion.
After Shen Shiyu left, Shen Ximan still maintained the same posture. She stood in front of Bo Jingyu like a student who had made a mistake, with her head slightly lowered and said nothing.
"Your suturing technique last night was excellent. Your movements were more steady than those doctors. If you're willing to stay and treat me, I can help you achieve one thing."
Shen Ximan looked up, her dark eyes fixed on him. "Anything?"
"Yeah."
Bo Jingyu slightly raised his cold eyebrows. "What kind of handle does she have on you?"
Shen Ximan was surprised. He saw right through her.
She took a deep breath and told him about An Ruo being locked up.
"If you can help me, I'll stay here."
These words carried a bit of a threat, which made Bo Jingyu smile.
He readily agreed. "Okay. I'll rescue your sister in a few days."
Shen Ximan was overjoyed. After all, it would take her some time to do it on her own. She didn't want to expose her power easily. Now that Bo Jingyu could shorten the time, it was the best.
Although she tried her best to hide her joy, the smile that flashed in her bright eyes didn't escape Bo Jingyu's notice.
"Don't contact your family these days. With your current status, they won't do anything to An Ruo."
She understood what Bo Jingyu meant and nodded.
Night fell.
Shen Ximan was fidgety in her room. She didn't know how to get along with a man alone.
Especially now that this man was her husband.
The window was open, and the cool wind blew the curtains gently. Her mind was in a mess, so she went to close the window.
When she turned around, she caught a glimpse of Bo Jingyu standing at the bathroom door looking at her.
"Come here."
Her body was a bit stiff, but she still obediently walked over.
"Wh - what's up?"
It was just an ordinary night, but when getting along with such a man, everything around seemed to become ambiguous.
"Help me take off my clothes."
He slightly lifted his limbs and looked at her with a smile in the corners of his eyes.
Shen Ximan's face flushed instantly, and the redness even spread to her earlobes. The round and pink color didn't escape Bo Jingyu's eyes.
He pursed his lips slightly and watched her clumsily try to untie his belt. Her fingers were shaking so much that she just couldn't untie it.
Bo Jingyu couldn't help teasing her. "Are you getting Parkinson's at such a young age?"
Shen Ximan's temple twitched slightly, and her face darkened a bit, but she didn't retort.
She tensed her body, simply closed her eyes, randomly took off his T - shirt, then quickly pulled down his pants and immediately turned around.
"Done!"
A faint smile appeared on Bo Jingyu's lips. He didn't make things difficult for her anymore and walked into the bathroom.
When Shen Ximan was about to run away, Bo Jingyu's lazy voice came from behind. "Come in and help me take a bath?"
She was going crazy!
