Suddenly, Bo Jingyu came up with a naughty idea.
"Let An Ruo's elder sister come to me in person. Anyone else won't do."
Ruo Chi still had the egg yolk pastry in his mouth and mumbled, "What about the Li family? It's a critical time now."
"An Ruo is my top priority now."
He closed the car door and got out. With a cold look on his face, he said, "Li Rui is beyond saving. I don't think he'll cause any more trouble. Just find some capable subordinates to guard around the Li family."
"OK. I'll go pick up the third young miss right away."
Ruo Chi was quite happy when he mentioned this cute little girl.
Just as A Kun came out of the gas station, he saw a group of bodyguards in black striding straight towards him, looking domineering and serious.
"Car keys."
"Ah? What?"
"Please give me your car keys."
A Kun was full of confusion. "Why? It's my car!"
The gas - station owner thought this young guy had run into some gangsters. He quickly closed the door and pressed his face against the glass to watch the show.
"We're here to take the third young miss away."
At this, his nerves tightened.
"Who are you? What do you want with the third young miss?"
Just as A Kun was getting ready to fight against all of them, An Ruo actually opened the passenger - side door and ran over with small steps.
"Brother Ruo Chi!"
"Hey~ My little baby!"
He squatted down just in time to embrace her.
"Brother Ruo Chi?"
A Kun couldn't help feeling a bit jealous. He even thought that this young man, who was not much older than him, seemed familiar.
After rummaging through his memory—
Wasn't he the assistant beside Bo Jingyu!
An Ruo wrapped her arms around Ruo Chi's neck, her eyes still red.
"Brother Kun, don't blame me. I didn't mean it."
Before A Kun could respond, Ruo Chi jumped in.
With a smiling curve on his lips, he said, "Please tell your boss that I've taken the third young miss away. Please tell her not to worry."
"On what grounds are you taking her away? This is kidnapping!"
Ruo Chi smiled politely. "Don't make it sound so serious. My dear third young miss, please explain for me. Are you willing to go with me?"
"Yes! An Ruo is willing!"
A Kun slumped his shoulders, looking blank.
He lost.
He couldn't compete with this sly smiling tiger!
"No. Even if the third young miss is willing, I still don't agree!"
Ruo Chi was too lazy to argue with him. As he turned around to leave, he said,
"You just wait for the notice about when the third young miss will go back."
"No! She's our family's third young miss! Why... do I have to wait for the notice? Stop! Stop!"
A Kun lifted his legs to chase, but was surrounded by the bodyguards.
"Sir, please cooperate."
He was so anxious that he gasped for breath. "How can I cooperate! He's taken our third young miss away! Hey, Ruo Chi, don't go!"
The bodyguard frowned menacingly. "Please cooperate!"
"I..."
A Kun dared not speak out his anger and looked as aggrieved as a well - behaved rabbit.
Since he was outnumbered, he had to call for backup.
"Fine. I won't chase."
The bodyguards didn't let him go until ten minutes after they were sure Ruo Chi had left.
At Yancheng Hospital.
"Remember, when we go in, you must not speak loudly. No matter how excited you are, you can't. Got it?"
Ruo Chi held An Ruo in his arms and carefully instructed her.
"Got it. You've said it three times!"
Knock, knock. He knocked on the ward door and turned the doorknob to enter.
Bo Jingyu's previously gloomy eyes melted like an iceberg the moment he saw An Ruo. They became as gentle as a soft breeze.
"Come here."
The chubby little girl covered her mouth and ran over.
She hugged his calf and rubbed her cheek against it affectionately.
"Brother, I miss you so much."
Her voice was as soft as a mosquito's, but Bo Jingyu heard it clearly.
The locked chains in his heart were unlocked, filled only with love.
He squatted down and gently hugged her in his arms.
"I miss you too, my baby."
An Ruo's tears soaked the shirt on Bo Jingyu's shoulder, leaving a wet patch. But she was sensible enough not to cry loudly.
She just choked back her emotions and sobbed softly.
Ruo Chi's eyes also got moist. He slowly backed out of the ward, leaving them some private space to catch up.
"Why did you bring the third young miss here?"
Qian Li, who was guarding the door, asked curiously.
"I'm not quite sure. The second master gave me a number and told me to quickly find the address and pick up the third young miss. There must be something going on."
"Humph," Qian Li pouted discontentedly. "It seems that the famous President Wen is so busy that she can't even take care of her own younger sister."
"Now she remembers our second master. What is this? Entrusting?"
Ruo Chi quickly covered his mouth and stretched his neck to look inside the ward. He let out a sigh of relief after making sure that Bo Jingyu and An Ruo hadn't heard.
"Can you watch what you say?"
"Come on. It doesn't matter if they hear. Anyway, I'm on the second master's side. No matter who says good things, it won't work. Even if she's rich and capable, it's still not okay."
Qian Li kept saying unpleasant things, but his red - rimmed eyes and the act of deliberately raising his head to keep the tears from falling made Ruo Chi understand. He pursed his lips and didn't say anything more.
Both of them were lamenting the unfairness of the world.
How wonderful it would be if the second master and the second mistress were still together.
"Okay. I'll take you to McDonald's later."
Bo Jingyu lovingly stroked An Ruo's fine hair.
It had only been a few months since he last saw her, but she had grown so tall.
"Brother, is that sister sick?"
She pointed at Tian Danni, who was still in a coma on the hospital bed.
"Yes. So we can't speak too loudly."
An Ruo tiptoed to the bedside and looked curiously.
This action completely touched Bo Jingyu's heart.
This little one was so cute.
"Brother, I know her."
He walked over and asked, "It's not strange that you know her. Her advertisements and TV shows are on TV every day."
An Ruo shook her head. "No. Sister has her in her books."
At this, Bo Jingyu was stunned.
Kids surely don't understand those scheming things, nor do they understand the strained relationship between him and Shen Ximan.
Children speak without filter and have no ulterior motives.
The "books" An Ruo mentioned should be those contracts.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes! There are several very thick books with this sister's photos."
Why did Shen Ximan collect so much personal information about Tian Danni?
Judging from the current situation, Xiao Shujing had the upper hand.
Moreover, the dual endorsement had now become a single - person endorsement. Juan Yi had also collapsed because of Li Rui, while Ah Hairui remained unaffected.
Even when Bo Jingyu stepped in personally, Shen Ximan remained unmoved.
What on earth was she up to?
He was finding it harder and harder to figure out this woman's actions.
