Bo Siming smiled indulgently. "Now when I think that you'll soon become my fiancée, I'm so excited that I can't fall asleep. Yu'er, after being together for so many years, we're finally going to achieve our happy ending."
Shen Shiyu was greatly influenced by his mood.
The fear and panic she had felt just now gradually subsided.
"Siming, can you promise me that after we've dealt with Grandpa's matter, we'll never do such things again, okay?"
The matter of Xiao Zhenguo had become a heart - ache for her.
Although she tried her best every day not to recall that night, when she fell asleep at night, his face would always appear ferociously, forcing her to wake up frequently, with cold sweat on her back.
"Sure. This kind of thing is not a good one. After we've taken care of Grandpa, we'll go abroad and find a quiet place to live. By then, you have to give me a whole football team of babies."
Bo Siming's fantasy was quite appealing.
Shen Shiyu forced a smile and nodded. After chatting for a while, they set off.
Outside the dressing - room, Qian Li stood nervously in front of the glass window with a solemn face, his eyes staring intently at the doctor who was changing the dressing.
"Miss Xue, your boyfriend is really concerned about you."
The doctor felt a bit uncomfortable being stared at and said with an embarrassed smile.
"He... he's not my boyfriend!" Xue Xiaoqi blushed.
She was so embarrassed that she didn't even feel the pain from the medicine on her fingernails.
"Oh, look at my eyes. Then you must be very good friends. Otherwise, an ordinary person wouldn't be so concerned."
Her heart was pounding, and her head felt a bit dizzy.
"Um... we're friends."
Qian Li accompanied Xue Xiaoqi back to the ward. He didn't say a word during the whole process, and the atmosphere was so awkward that it was hard to breathe normally.
"Does your hand still hurt?"
His hoarse voice came, with a cold tone.
"N... no, it doesn't hurt anymore."
She didn't know why, but she lowered her head and didn't dare to look him in the eye.
"That's good. You still need to change the dressing this afternoon. Don't forget the time."
Qian Li was a bit confused. Why didn't this woman look at him? Maybe she really hated him staying here.
Come to think of it, since Xue Xiaoqi woke up, she had been very fidgety.
She either stammered when she spoke or dodged his eyes.
It seemed that he was redundant.
"Yeah, I know..."
Her face was so hot that she felt like she was about to have a fever.
"You have a good rest. I'll leave first."
After understanding her intention, Qian Li couldn't stay any longer.
Just as he put his hand on the doorknob and turned around, he was called out by the person behind him.
"W... wait!"
Xue Xiaoqi watched him turn back, nervously swallowing her saliva.
"T... that, I heard from the rescue nurse that you carried me to the hospital. I haven't thanked you properly yet."
Qian Li felt a bit disappointed. He had actually been looking forward to her asking him to stay.
Unexpectedly, it was just a polite thank - you.
"You were very emotional at that time. It was me who knocked you out. It's already good that you don't blame me. Have a good rest."
With that, he opened the ward door and left.
Xue Xiaoqi didn't know why, but suddenly she felt empty inside.
She originally wanted to ask for his contact information and invite him to dinner, but it was all because of her clumsy mouth that she didn't say it out. This favor would still be owed.
"Qian Li, Qian Li!"
Bo Jingyu bumped into him absent - mindedly in the corridor and called him several times.
"Second Master."
"What's on your mind?"
Qian Li quickly adjusted his regretful mood. "It's nothing. I'm just thinking about how to report this to the master."
"Just say it like it was announced on the Internet. I've also communicated with the captain and the police. It will be handled as an accident."
There were quite a lot of reefs around Lanshan Lake. Moreover, the luxury yacht was drifting at the slowest speed, so it wasn't strange that it hit a reef. They could use reasons like engine aging or something else to fool people.
"Okay, I see. I'll go and relieve Ruo Chi now."
At Yancheng Hospital.
Bo Jingming sat in the ward with a gloomy face.
His father on the bed had been in a coma. His eldest son had suffered a comminuted fracture on one side of his body due to the accident, and his youngest son, who had a minor injury, had been transferred to a private hospital with Wen Jinrui.
They were about to go abroad for treatment, but suddenly so many things happened.
How could he leave with peace of mind?
"You're finally here!"
Ruo Chi saw Qian Li as if he had seen a savior. "The master has been grilling me for several days, constantly asking about the situation on the luxury yacht. I'm almost running out of words!"
"I know. That's why I'm here to relieve you."
"Then I'll leave it to you. Come on!"
Ruo Chi quickly packed up and ran away in a hurry.
It seemed that the master was really angry to have forced him to such an extent.
Click. The ward door was opened.
"Changed shifts?" Bo Jingming frowned and asked.
"Master, the Second Master asked me to come and relieve you."
"Does he have that kind of thought? I'm asking you, did the Second Master make his own decision about the luxury yacht incident on Lanshan Lake? The whole city knows about it from the news!"
Qian Li always kept his head down, maintaining a relatively respectful posture.
"The police have reached a conclusion. The luxury yacht did hit a reef, and the captain has already paid the price and been forced to resign."
Bo Jingming gasped painfully. "What's the use of his resignation? My son is now half - paralyzed. How is he going to live in the future!"
The more he thought about it, the sadder and angrier he became.
"What's wrong with our Bo family? Tragedies keep happening one after another! I just want to take Father abroad as soon as possible. Change the plane ticket for the end of the month to tomorrow afternoon. Let Jingyu go with him."
Qian Li was surprised. "Tomorrow afternoon? Aren't you going with them?"
Bo Jingming glared angrily. "The company has no one to manage it now. How can I go with them? There must be something else behind this incident. Instead of letting the two brothers scheme against each other, I'd better step in myself."
How could a good luxury yacht hit a reef?
He could tell the truth from this low - level excuse as soon as he heard it.
But now the situation had reached a boiling point, and there was no time to take care of it.
The most important thing was to hold on to the company and prevent the spread of rumors.
Thinking of this, Bo Jingming couldn't help but feel a bit cold - hearted. He had fled Yancheng before because of his wife's death and couldn't get out of the pain. Part of the reason was that he didn't like to take over the company's management.
He hated so - called "reputation", "status" and "social influence", these false and illusory things.
People used these names to do inhumane things!
But when he really had to take on the responsibility, he finally understood Bo Yanhai's good intentions. On one hand, he had to support tens of thousands of employees, and on the other hand, he had to prop up his old body to deal with family disputes.
Bo Jingming could do nothing but regret and blame himself.
"... I understand, Master. I'll report to the Second Master right away."
"Which ward is Miss Wen of Ahaorui in? I'll go and visit her this afternoon."
"Back to the master, it's the second room on the top floor."
"Also inform Siming about the early departure abroad."
Bo Siming propped up his decadent body and slowly walked away from the corridor.
