Bo Jingcheng remained silent for a moment, a hint of conflict flashing in his eyes.

"Siyao, give me some time, I'll handle it." Bo Jingcheng's voice was deep.

Shen Siyao persisted, "How much longer do we have to wait? I've waited long enough!"

Bo Jingcheng frowned, looking somewhat irritated. "Siyao, don't push me! You know what's going on with the old man..."

Just then, Bo Jingcheng's phone rang. It was Jiang Chengyu, Jiang Xinyue's older brother and also his good friend, calling.

"Hey Jingcheng, I've been back from my business trip for a few days now. I was hoping you and Xinyue could come over for a visit, but she kept making excuses. I was just wondering if you two have time tonight? Your parents are also thinking about you."

Bo Jingcheng felt a headache coming on when he thought about the unpleasantness he and Jiang Xinyue had just had.

How should he respond at this point?

Bo Jingcheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Chengyu, Xinyue and I have been a bit busy lately, so we probably can't go tonight."

Jiang Chengyu paused on the other end of the phone, then said, "Jingcheng, did you and Xinyue have a fight? I'm warning you, don't bully my sister."

Bo Jingcheng quickly said, "Chengyu, don't misunderstand, it's just that I've been having too much work lately."

Jiang Chengyu snorted coldly: "Jingcheng, Xinyue is a good girl, don't let her down. If I find out you're not treating her well, we can't be brothers anymore."

Bo Jingcheng's heart tightened. "Chengyu, don't worry, I will treat Xinyue well."

After hanging up the phone, Bo Jingcheng became even more agitated. Shen Siyao, who was standing next to him, said, "Jingcheng, look, even her brother has noticed that there's a problem between you two."

Bo Jingcheng glared at her. "It's all because of you."

Chen Siyao lowered her head, feeling wronged. "Jingcheng, I did it all for our future."

Bo Jingcheng rubbed his temples. "Alright, stop talking."

The old Bo family residence.

"It's been so long, and Xinyue hasn't contacted me at all. That brat Bo Jingcheng hasn't made a move either."

After finishing speaking, Old Master Bo couldn't help but look at the butler standing to the side.

"Do you think these two kids are getting a divorce?"

"I heard that the young master's white moonlight has returned. Given the young master's previous attitude towards Miss Shen, I'm afraid the young mistress will suffer."

Upon hearing this, Old Master Bo could no longer sit still. "You're right! Xin Yue likes to keep all her worries to herself. No, I have to go to Beicheng to personally supervise that brat. I can't let him make a mistake."

So, Old Master Bo couldn't stop worrying about them and decided to go back to Beicheng to take a look.

After returning to the Bo family home, Jiang Xinyue began packing her things. She drafted a new divorce agreement, placed it on the counter, and prepared to leave, dragging her suitcase.

She had just reached the door when she heard the doorbell ring.

Through the surveillance camera, she spotted Mr. Bo and the butler standing outside the door.

Jiang Xinyue immediately became nervous, "Why is the old man here?"

Jiang Xinyue took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

She knew she couldn't panic at this moment; if the old man saw through her disguise, the situation would only become more difficult to manage.

She put down her suitcase, walked quickly to the door, forced a smile, and opened it.

"Grandpa, why did you come so suddenly? You didn't even tell me beforehand." Jiang Xinyue tried her best to make her voice sound natural.

Old Master Bo looked her up and down, keenly noticing her slightly red eyes and haggard appearance, and his heart sank.

"What, aren't you happy to see Grandpa?" Old Master Bo joked casually as he walked into the house, his gaze quickly falling on the suitcase beside him.

"Where are we going?" Old Master Bo asked calmly.

Jiang Xinyue's heart tightened, and her mind raced. "Grandpa, I was planning to go back to my parents' house for a few days. I've been feeling a bit down lately, and I wanted to go back and spend some time with them." She tried to gloss over the matter with a lighthearted tone.

Old Master Bo did not expose her, but nodded thoughtfully.

By this time, the butler had already arranged the luggage and was standing to the side.

Old Master Bo waved for the butler to leave, then pulled Jiang Xinyue to sit down on the sofa.

"Xinyue, tell Grandpa the truth, did you and Jingcheng have a falling out?" Old Master Bo looked at her with loving eyes, his gaze full of concern.

Jiang Xinyue smiled and said, "Grandpa, that's not true."

“Xinyue, Grandpa noticed last time that there was a problem between you and Jingcheng. Was it that Shen Siyao who was behind it? I’ll have someone deal with her later. Let’s see how she dares to ruin your relationship.”

Jiang Xinyue's smile froze for a moment. "Grandpa, no need. Some things can't be forced to have a result."

Just then, the door was suddenly opened, and Bo Jingcheng walked in.

When he saw Old Master Bo and Jiang Xinyue sitting on the sofa, he was taken aback at first, and then a look of panic flashed across his face.

"Grandpa, what brings you here?" Bo Jingcheng asked, trying to appear calm.

Old Master Bo stood up, glaring angrily. "If I hadn't come, I wouldn't know what foolish things you'd done! How can you face Xin Yue? How can you face our Bo family ancestors?"

Bo Jingcheng lowered his head, not daring to look the old man in the eye, "Grandpa, I..."

"What do you mean, 'you'! You have to explain yourself clearly today!" Old Master Bo stomped his feet in anger.

Jiang Xinyue remained silent, her expression somber.

Bo Jingcheng looked at Jiang Xinyue, then at the old man, gritted his teeth and said, "Grandpa, I was wrong."

The old man snorted coldly: "You know you're wrong? Then what do you plan to do?"
