So, while Lin Yuanyuan withdrew her investment from Bo Xingzhou's company and project, she also hired an expert to investigate Bo Xingzhou's background. With this desperate decision, Lin Yuanyuan actually discovered something.

Bo Xingzhou did have someone protecting him, but this was not voluntary on the part of the "master," but rather forced.

The son of the "expert" and Bo Xingzhou were college classmates, but their relationship was only average. After all, one was the illegitimate son of a wealthy family (yes, Bo Xingzhou was an illegitimate child, but their family didn't live in Jiangcheng, so no one knew about it), so it was difficult for them to be together.

But the young man, who had been adventuring in the forest with his girlfriend, accidentally caused her to fall off a cliff, a scene witnessed by Bo Xingzhou himself. The young man, who had been raised in luxury and pampered by his family, was so frightened that he forgot to call the police. He simply sat slumped on the edge of the cliff, muttering, "It wasn't me, it wasn't me."

Bo Xingzhou, seemingly a bright and cheerful figure but a wicked and despicable person at heart, quickly came up with an idea. He pretended not to notice the young man's girlfriend had fallen off the cliff, coaxed the young man back to the hotel with him, and tricked him into thinking of him as a lifeline. He then went to the young man's father, also known as the "expert," and told him that he had witnessed the accident between the young man and his girlfriend.

After all, for unexpected things, even if the young master has to take responsibility, it is limited. According to the character of the "master", the young master has to take the responsibility himself.

But with Bo Xingzhou as a "witness," things became complicated. He could easily claim that the two were arguing and that the young man pushed his girlfriend. Or, even more ruthlessly, he could claim that the young man had committed premeditated murder.

Either way, it would ruin the young master, the "expert," and the "expert's" family. He could selfishly gamble his own career on his son's innocence, but he couldn't drag his family down with him.

So the "master" compromised and accepted Bo Xingzhou's threat. He told his son to report his girlfriend to the police station, saying she was missing. Yes, he reported her missing, not accidentally falling off a cliff. This was one of Bo Xingzhou's conditions; when threatening someone, he always had to have some leverage.

Later, out of guilt, the "expert" personally took his son to his girlfriend's home to apologize to her parents, saying that it was his son's fault for not protecting his girlfriend, which led to her accident.

I also broke down the incident and the reasons why I made this choice and told it to the young master. Since then, the young master has matured a lot, which is a blessing in disguise.

Bo Xingzhou's other condition was the protection of a "master." He didn't dare ask for too much. After all, even the "master" had his own principles and bottom line, so he didn't ask for much.

This led to the sudden rise of Mr. Bo in Jiangcheng and Bo Xingzhou, whose past could not be traced.

This matter is secret and no one else could possibly know about it. The reason why Lin Yuanyuan was able to find out was entirely because the person she found this time was "unconventional" and his investigative methods often tested the edge of illegality.

He directly obtained evidence that Bo Xingzhou threatened the "expert".

This became Lin Yuanyuan's bargaining chip with the "expert." Of course, she wasn't trying to threaten the "expert," she just wanted to tell him that she would send Bo Xingzhou to prison, and then he would no longer be a threat.

All the "expert" needed to do was to "lose contact" for a period of time while implementing his plan, so that Bo Xingzhou would not be able to seek external help.
