Bo Yanhai had always been decisive and left no future troubles, which was the main reason why he had managed to expand the Bo Group.
"I'll introduce better spouses to you in the future. Don't contact such low - class people again."
After saying that, he led a group of dark - clad followers away.
Bo Siming's veins bulged on his forehead. He clenched his fists and quickly turned around.
"Really! That's great..."
Shen Shiyu's words were cut short when she caught sight of the man she had been longing for. Ignoring the man surnamed Song, she quickly ran towards him.
"Siming~"
"Who is he?" Bo Siming growled menacingly as soon as he came up.
"Um... he's just a client I wasn't very familiar with before." She stammered and didn't dare to look into his flaming eyes.
"Client? You're really good at making up lies for me." Without saying a word, he pinched her chin with such force that it seemed he wanted to crush the bone.
"You're hurting me!"
The man surnamed Song saw their ambiguous actions and got into his car dejectedly, having no mood to discuss business anymore.
"The old man has given the order. You'll never be able to enter the Bo family's door from now on."
After saying that, Bo Siming let go harshly and turned to leave.
Only then did Shen Shiyu come to her senses. She quickly rushed up and hugged his waist, crying heart - rendingly, "Woohoo, don't leave me. Please, you're the only one I have now."
"The only one? I think you were quite happy with that man just now. Don't say such disgusting things to me."
Bo Siming forcefully pried her hands off and left heartlessly. Looking at his determined back, her face was covered with tears.
Buzz, buzz.
The phone on the table kept vibrating. It rang and then stopped, stopped and then rang again. The screen showed 27 missed calls.
"Shujing, let me introduce someone to you."
Su Minghan pulled the person behind him out and said with a smile.
"This is the wife of my best friend, Shen Ximan."
"… Hello." Xiao Shujing greeted indifferently.
"I watched your movie last time. It was really good."
Actually, Shen Ximan had seen her several times, but this was the first time they were formally introduced to each other.
"Thank you."
"Let's all exchange contact information. We'll all become good friends in the future." Su Minghan showed his white teeth and proposed.
Shen Ximan rummaged through her body but couldn't find her phone.
"Sorry, I might have left it in the room. Wait a moment."
As soon as she left, Su Minghan received a call.
"What? Fainted?"
Xiao Shujing noticed the change in his expression but didn't ask.
She was just an ordinary actress. She did whatever her boss arranged. Other things and people had nothing to do with her.
"You go wait in the car with my assistant first."
After saying that, Su Minghan ran towards the elevator.
Looking at the empty corridor, she felt a strange sense of oppression in her heart.
Did he... like that woman just now?
As soon as Shen Ximan got into the elevator, the door was stopped by a hand before it closed.
"Hurry! Come with me!"
She stared blankly at Su Minghan. "Where?"
"Bo Jingyu is in trouble!"
A certain part of her heart seemed to be grabbed, suddenly hurting as if being twisted.
"What's the reason?"
He looked at her in disbelief. "At a time like this, you still ask what the reason is? He's your husband!"
In the eyes of outsiders, this might seem like a sign of lack of love.
But the fact was indeed so.
In a contractual marriage, where was there any love or not? Bo Jingyu had been so determined before. He said he wanted a divorce and showed no mercy at all. Why should she cling to him?
Shen Ximan hesitated.
On one hand, it was for the stable position of herself and An Ruo in the future. On the other hand, she was worried that going after him so eagerly would not get a response.
It might be a bit self - indulgent.
"Come out quickly! He was punished by the old man to kneel all night without a drop of water, all for you!" Su Minghan was so anxious that he jumped up and down.
In just a split second, Shen Ximan decided that she didn't care about anything. She admitted that she was worried about Bo Jingyu. Without saying a word, she rushed out of the elevator.
"Where is he now!"
"At the Bo family mansion. I'll take you there right away."
Su Minghan thought she walked too slowly and dragged her along while running.
"Master Su, the Second Master has ordered that Miss Shen can't go out."
As soon as they reached the hotel entrance, they were stopped by bodyguards wearing sunglasses.
"Get out of the way!"
"Really can't. If she leaves, we won't be able to account for it..."
Before he could finish his sentence, Su Minghan punched him.
Shen Ximan watched him fight with several people and win steadily in a few minutes. She showed a surprised expression.
He suddenly opened the business car, scaring Xiao Shujing.
"You get out. Hurry up."
"Why?"
She looked at his bruised body and hadn't had time to ask what had happened when she was roughly pulled out of the car.
"Ximan, you get in quickly. My assistant will take you to the mansion."
"Thank you. I'll remember this favor."
After saying that, she gave Xiao Shujing an apologetic look and quickly got into the car.
Watching the car speeding away, Su Minghan put his hands on his hips and gasped.
"It's been a long time since I had such an exciting experience."
Xiao Shujing looked at him for a few seconds and then shifted her gaze to the faintly painful place on her ankle. When she was pulled out just now, it seemed to be scratched, and now it was bleeding.
She inexplicably felt a bit aggrieved and even became sarcastic.
"She left in the car. What about me?"
Su Minghan turned around. "Just send another car over."
"My things are still in the car."
Xiao Shujing stared at him expressionlessly. He was so straightforward that he didn't notice she was unhappy at all.
After all, she looked the same whether she was happy or unhappy. Even if he had great skills, he couldn't predict her inner feelings.
"It's a special situation now. Understand. Ximan is quite pitiful."
Su Minghan patted her on the shoulder with a smile and walked into the hotel.
To Xiao Shujing, these words seemed to be saying...
"I feel sorry for Ximan's experience. Don't make a fuss. Be generous when you should be."
It made her seem unreasonable. For the first time in a long time, she found that she cared a little about him.
She had always been looking for reasons to hate Su Minghan, but when something really happened, she was so frankly sarcastic.
The wind blowing into the car ruffled Shen Ximan's messy hair.
She looked worried and anxious.
She had only felt this way when her mother died and when An Ruo was locked in the basement by that mother - daughter pair. She thought she would never experience such heart - wrenching pain again.
But today, it really came back to her heart.
She admitted it.
She was very worried about Bo Jingyu, and even more worried about his health.
Tears welled up in her eyes, blurring everything around her. The sadness choking in her throat turned into determination. She bit her lower lip and held on to her last bit of stubbornness.
