Su Ruanruan spoke somewhat childishly, “I don’t want anyone.”
Bo Jingyan leaned forward and whispered into her ear, “Ruanruan, I’ll wait for you to grow up. Will that do?”
Her face instantly heated up, but she didn’t push him away. They both understood some things tacitly.
However, Su Ruanruan still didn’t want his card nor was she willing to spend his money.
In the evening, Bo Jingyan asked the chauffeur to send the young girl back.
He said that he was going on a business trip for a few days and wanted her to be obedient. She was not allowed to talk to Bo Ziqi or flirt around in school.
Su Ruanruan alighted from the car and walked into the main hall of the Bo family’s residence.
The living room was quiet, with only two or three servants cleaning the furniture. When they saw Su Ruanruan, they called out, “Miss Su.”
Su Ruanruan nodded at them before going upstairs.
A slender figure stood by the stairs on the second floor. It was Bo Ziqi.
He had changed into a set of home clothes and was leaning against the railing. The lights shone down from above, illuminating his handsome but gloomy face.
He quietly watched Su Ruanruan go upstairs.
From a male’s point of view, she indeed looked pretty. However, it was also true that she was indeed scheming.
He had spoken to the old lady earlier, but she had insisted on keeping her in the family.
Bo Ziqi liked Su Qionglin and had plans to marry her, but now that Su Ruanruan was staying in the Bo family, Su Qionglin was in an awkward position.
Su Ruanruan finally saw him.
Bo Ziqi snorted and turned around to leave.
Su Ruanruan smiled and was about to return to her room when Bo Jingyuan’s voice came from downstairs. “Su Ruanruan, stop right there.”
Not long after, Bo Jingyuan ran up. She looked at Su Ruanruan with an unfriendly and mocking gaze, and demanded, “Su Ruanruan, are you trying to seduce my second brother?”
Su Ruanruan remained silent.
Bo Jingyuan flicked her braid. “My second brother is a pianist. Your third sister can barely match up to him.”
Su Ruanruan ignored her and walked towards her bedroom.
Bo Jingyuan shouted behind her, “My second brother won’t fall for you.”
However, the corridor was already empty.
Bo Jingyuan continued hatefully, “Anyway, everyone in the school knows your identity. If Second Brother gets angry, you can forget about having a good life.”
Su Ruanruan had already thought about what Bo Jingyuan had said a long time ago.
Ever since Bo Ziqi returned, she knew that she was treading on thin ice. She went back to her room and immediately found some medical books. She then took out some documents and read through them carefully.
It was getting late.
Su Ruanruan was curled up on the sofa by the window. The dim yellow light shone on her face, casting a gentle glow on her face.
That was what Bo Ziqi saw when he opened the door.
He was stunned for a moment before saying stiffly, “The Old Madam asked you to go downstairs for dinner.”
Su Ruanruan was shocked.
Bo Ziqi’s voice turned cold. “My room is next to yours.”
What he meant was that he was just calling her because he was on the way down.
With that, he stuffed his hand into his pocket and strolled downstairs.
Su Ruanruan quickly hid the documents and put the medical book away.
When she reached the corridor, she heard laughter coming from downstairs. She stole a peek.
Neither Bo Jingyan nor Bo Jing Se were around.
Su Ruanruan walked over to greet the Old Madam before taking her seat.
The Old Madam then took the initiative to say, “Jingyan doesn’t live at home, and Jing Se has her own apartment.”
Su Ruanruan nodded.
It was obvious that the old lady was deliberately trying to matchmake her and Bo Ziqi. She had arranged for them to be seated together, and she would even encourage conversation between the both of them from time to time.
Su Ruanruan felt like she was sitting on pins and needles.
Bo Ziqi also remained indifferent and ignored her.
Although the Old Madam was a little worried, there was nothing she could do. What else could she do if the two children didn’t like each other?
In private, she advised Su Ruanruan to put in some effort into getting close to Bo Ziqi. The young girl merely placated her before returning to her room. There, she leaned against the door.
She thought about her relationship with Bo Jingyan and felt sorry for the Old Madam, but she couldn’t care less.
When she finally calmed down, she took out the information that Bo Jingyan had given her and flipped through it.
After reading for half an hour, her eyelids twitched and she quickly flipped through the medical book.
‘Something’s not right…’ She thought as she read through the book.
She clutched her hands tightly as she got more engrossed in her readings. She only switched off the lights and went to bed late at night..
