Chapter 873: Pretty Good
“What? It’s all because of Xu Qingshan. She told your father that she doesn’t want you to touch our family’s business. You’re the only one who’s magnanimous.”
Yuan Muchun pursed her lips and didn’t say anything. Then, she shrugged and said, “Actually, it doesn’t matter. Sister is indeed very capable. I’m really ashamed of my inferiority. There’s no need for me to tire myself out. Otherwise, if I really fight for something, I won’t have time to play with you.”
Bo Anxi immediately held her arm and said, “You haven’t finished your postgraduate studies. Besides, I’m not that playful. If you really want to do what you really want to do, how can I keep pestering you?”
“But I still hope to play with you.”
“Hehe…”
Shen Fanxing smiled at her two good friends and her heart warmed.
It turned out that such pure friendship could exist in such a complicated upper-class circle. She really hoped that this friendship would never deteriorate.
Sighing softly, Shen Fanxing looked at Bo Anxi and asked softly,
“Your aunt is coming back the day after tomorrow, did you know?”
The smile on Bo Anxi’s face froze and her fair face twitched. “Is… is Aunt coming back?”
Yuan Muchun swallowed hard, her face turning pale.
Seeing Bo Anxi and Yuan Muchun’s reaction, Shen Fanxing’s heart skipped a beat.
‘What happened?’
Why did they have such a reaction at the mention of Bo Jinchuan’s mother?
What kind of terrifying person was she?
“What’s wrong? What’s… your reaction?”
Bo Anxi raised her head slowly and looked at Shen Fanxing sympathetically. “Aunt… is actually… fine.”
Shen Fanxing’s face darkened. “Actually, that’s good.”
Bo Anxi didn’t have such a reaction in front of Old Master Bo. Instead, she looked as though she had been struck by lightning.
Could it really be the God of Lightning?
While Shen Fanxing was still confused, Bo Anxi and Yuan Muchun couldn’t sit still.
“Muchun, is your handkerchief done?”
“Just a little more. What about you?”
“I… I still have a lot…”
Bo Anxi looked like she was about to cry. Shen Fanxing frowned and asked, “What handkerchief? What embroidery?”
“It’s embroidery.”
Yuan Muchun’s expression was a little panicked. “Aunt… is fine.”
Shen Fanxing’s lips twitched.
How powerful was Bo Jinchuan’s mother that the two juniors didn’t even dare to say a word.
“Why are you all so afraid of her?”
Bo Anxi and Yuan Sichun stood up from the sofa. “We… we don’t know what to say. Anyway, Sister-in-law, you’ll know when you see it with your own eyes. We… we’re still in a hurry to embroider the handkerchief, so we won’t disturb your rest. Stay here and recover soon.”
With that, the two of them hurried out of the ward.
Shen Fanxing was speechless.
Embroidery?
In this era, she wasn’t used to hearing this term.
Bo Jinchuan only returned to the ward when the sky darkened.
At that moment, Shen Fanxing was standing by the window with her arms crossed. Her nails were pressed against her lips and she looked as though she was deep in thought.
Her tall and slender figure was wrapped in a loose hospital gown, making her look delicate.
Her hair was tied up simply at the back of her head, revealing a pair of fair and exquisite ears. She stood there with a straight back. Her beautiful side profile was solemn, and her long eyelashes fluttered unconsciously. The coldness and indifference on her body were something that no one in this world could compare to.
She always exuded such a unique aura unintentionally.
Pursing his lips, he strode forward and pulled Shen Fanxing into his embrace.
“Ah…”
Shen Fanxing was lost in her thoughts and she was caught off guard. Her legs flew into the air and she let out a soft moan. A familiar scent entered her nose and she hugged the man’s shoulders tightly.
As he swayed, he looked up at him with a hint of shock on his face.
“When did you arrive?”
Bo Jinchuan glared at her before placing her on the bed.
“What were you thinking about just now?”
At this point, Shen Fanxing narrowed her eyes and said, “I’m thinking of your mother.”
Bo Jinchuan raised an eyebrow as he watched her struggle with this question again and again. He couldn’t help but sigh.
“Just be yourself.”
Shen Fanxing frowned and sighed softly. That was all she could do.
–
The next morning, Bo Jinchuan instructed the doctor to change Shen Fanxing’s dressing before bringing her home.
Old Master Bo had breakfast early and was not in the living room.
On the other hand, there was a table full of breakfast in the kitchen. There was also a variety of tonics.
Shen Fanxing was afraid of such a situation.
How precious was the Bo family? Her injury coupled with such treatment made her feel a little guilty.
After dinner, Old Master Bo returned. Perhaps he had gone for a walk.
When she returned, she saw Bo Jinchuan pulling Shen Fanxing out of the dining room.
His gaze swept across Shen Fanxing’s knees. Seeing that she wasn’t affected, he snorted coldly and turned his head away.
After the two of them greeted Old Master Bo, Shen Fanxing sighed softly.
“Ah Chuan, it’s rare for me to come to Hong Kong. I want to go out for a walk… It’s too boring at home.”
She leaned closer to Bo Jinchuan and lowered her voice.
“Leg,” rejected Bo Jinchuan.
“I’m fine. Grandpa’s nourishing soup is really effective. I’m fine now.”
Shen Fanxing tried to please Old Master Bo.
Old Master glared at her. He looked angry, but he didn’t say anything.
Bo Jinchuan glanced at her. How could he not tell what she was thinking?
However, seeing the anticipation in her eyes, he relented. “I’ll go with you.”
Shen Fanxing smiled and said, “Then I’ll buy you clothes.”
Interest flashed across Bo Jinchuan’s eyes. “Okay.”
Looking at the two of them, Old Master Bo heaved a sigh of relief.
“Why should a man follow a woman when she’s shopping? Didn’t you say that you’re going back to Ping Cheng? Have you arranged everything for the company here? Don’t let others take advantage of the situation.”
Bo Jinchuan frowned slightly.
Seeing that he seemed to have something to tell her, Shen Fanxing smiled and said, “Why don’t I work with you?”
“Tsk, you’re so clingy. He earns money while you go out to spend money. If you want to go shopping, go! How long have we been apart? I’ll find someone to accompany you!”
As Old Master said that, he called Butler Wu to get his phone.
