Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When they were in the car, Bo Jingyan turned to look at her. “Why? You can’t bear to leave? Did you cry?”
Su Ru’an had chased after her. Bo Jingyan saw it clearly—Su Ru’an glanced at his cousin with a complicated gaze. However, the latter ignored him and turned her head away, feeling a little sad.
Bo Jingyan suddenly narrowed his eyes and reached out to grab her chin. “Who hit you?”
Su Ruanruan panicked and stuttered, “No one.”
Bo Jingyan dragged her over and scrutinized her face. “Did Old Master Su hit you?”
“This isn’t the first time.” Su Ruanruan’s voice was broken. “Why are you pretending to care about me?”
Bo Jingyan had also heard that Bo Jingyuan had slapped her, so he immediately said, “I won’t pursue that matter because I know you won’t let Jingyuan take advantage of you, but the Su family is different.”
Those people bullied and humiliated her because they had raised her.
Su Ruanruan didn’t want to alarm the members of the Su family here, hence she begged, “I will pay attention in the future.”
Bo Jingyan did not say anything else. His gaze fell on the bank card she was holding. Su Ru’an had given it to her just now. He took the card and bent it in half.
Angry tears rolled down Su Ruanruan’s face. He was too domineering.
She wanted to go back alone, but just then, Bo Jingyan’s secretary knocked on the car window.
Bo Jingyan rolled down the car window.
“Young Master Yan, the meeting is about to start.”
Bo Jingyan nodded. He turned to look at Su Ruanruan. “There’s a new product meeting. It’s very important.”
Su Ruanruan’s eyes lit up. ‘A new product meeting?’
She bit her lower lip. “Is it a meeting with the research and development department?”
Bo Jingyan smiled. “So you know about it.”
Seeing that she did not object, he started the car and drove towards the hotel.
As Su Ruanruan sat beside him, she stole a glance at him. For the first time, she felt that Bo Jingyan was not that scary.
20 minutes later, the car stopped in the parking lot of the Imperial View Hotel, and Bo Jingyan brought Su Ruanruan to the conference center on the top floor.
The meeting room was not big and was filled with just over 10 people. None of them showed any surprise when they saw Su Ruanruan.
Su Ruanruan thought to herself, ‘These people should be Bo Jingyan’s trusted aides.’
She then recalled that the servants of the Bo Family, who had gone to the Su Family with her today, were also following his orders. Her heart sank.
How powerful was Bo Jingyan?
Bo Jingyan arranged for a female assistant to bring Su Ruanruan to the room next door to rest.
Su Ruanruan originally wanted to stay behind, but she was afraid that he would be suspicious, so she obediently followed after the assistant.
The room was Bo Jingyan’s private lounge, and there were a living room and a small study room attached to it.
Su Ruanruan stood at the entrance of the study and softly asked, “Can I pick a book to read?”
The assistant smiled. “You’re the doctor’s guest. Of course you can.”
‘Doctor? Does she mean Bo Jingyan?’ Su Ruanruan was surprised.
Seeing her confusion, the assistant smiled again. “Young Master Yan is a PhD student at the best research institute in America.”
Su Ruanruan nodded before following her in.
The study room was very simple. Besides a desk, there were two rows of medical books on the shelves.
Su Ruanruan stood on her tiptoes and picked a book. Then, she sat on the sofa to read.
The assistant made her a cup of English black tea, and left.
The study room was very quiet except for the occasional sound of Su Ruanruan flipping through a book.
When Bo Jingyan returned from his meeting, he was surprised to see her reading medical books.
He walked over and sat beside her. He took the book from her hand and looked at it. “Do you like to read this?”
He put the book down again. “Haven’t you always painted?”
Su Ruanruan was surprised. How did he know about that?
Bo Jingyan lowered his voice. “Jingyuan said that you just transferred to Zhongjiang Art Academy.”
Su Ruanruan hummed in acknowledgment. She didn’t know what else to say.
She had never been alone with an adult male before, let alone a man who was after her.
Bo Jingyan took a sip of tea from Su Ruanruan’s teacup and said slowly, “But if you like medicine, you can come and take a look. Oh right, we have a laboratory in Imperial View too..”
