Chapter Sixty-One: Calling Him 'Little Uncle'

Sang Ruo raised her eyes and met the gaze of the man in front of her.

She nodded without hesitation and said bluntly, "Yes."

The response was concise and to the point, without any hesitation or ambiguity.

Liang Yuxin's gaze fell on the two of them, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but turn up slightly.

Bo Jinyan is an extremely upright and incorruptible person, and he will surely stand up for her.

Just as she was waiting for Bo Jinyan to berate Sang Ruo, the man suddenly turned around and faced her.

Before Liang Yuxin could even wipe the smile off her face, she met the man's extremely cold gaze.

The smile on her lips froze instantly: "Mr. Bo, Jinzhou, you see she's already admitted it herself, you have to give me an explanation, don't you? I'm, after all, a guest of the Bo family..."

"Did Miss Liang say something she shouldn't have, which angered Miss Sang?" Bo Jinyan's voice was deep. "Otherwise, why would Miss Sang hit you?"

Upon hearing this, Sang Ruo's gaze instinctively turned towards the man.

A hint of surprise flickered in her eyes, mixed with a faint gentleness.

That look had already been caught by Bo Jinzhou, who was standing right in front of him.

His expression suddenly darkened: "No matter what, you can't just hit someone, can you?"

"Since you know you shouldn't hit people, why did you just raise your hand?"

Bo Jinyan showed him no mercy and openly protected Sang Ruo.

Just as Bo Jinzhou was about to say something more, Chen Fangyue's voice came from behind him: "It's time to eat."

Bo Jinyan glanced at the two people in front of him, then fixed his gaze on Sang Ruo, took her arm, and led her into the room.

Upon seeing this scene, Chen Fangyue was suddenly stunned.

His gaze remained fixed on their hands, and his brow furrowed slightly.

When he looked back at Bo Jinzhou again, his eyes were filled with coldness.

During the meal, Bo Jinzhou's father, Bo Song, also returned and sat opposite Bo Jinzhou and Sang Ruo, showing concern for the two.

When asked about each other's recent situations, neither of them said a word.

Bo Song has been managing overseas projects in recent years. He had only heard that his son and daughter-in-law were getting a divorce, but he did not expect it to escalate to such an extent.

His gaze, intentionally or unintentionally, fell on Liang Yuxin, who was standing next to Bo Yukang.

At first glance, with the child sandwiched between the two, Sang Ruo looked more like an outsider.

"Come on, eat more..."

When the atmosphere became slightly tense, Bo Jinzhou served dishes to both Liang Yuxin and Bo Yukang.

They didn't give Sang Ruojia a piece of their mind.

This bias is obvious.

Sang Ruo's gaze fell on the dishes in Liang Yuxin and Bo Yukang's bowls, and her expression darkened.

This man knows how to embarrass her.

It's one thing to parade this woman around in public, but to embarrass her in front of the Bo family is another.

Just then, Bo Jinyan, who was sitting opposite Sang Ruo, suddenly picked up the serving chopsticks and put a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs on her plate.

"This is what you like to eat."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's attention turned to Bo Jinyan and Sang Ruo.

Chen Fangyue and Bo Song were left with only expressions of shock.

Sang Ruo naturally felt everyone's gaze, and subconsciously lowered her eyelids, looking at the sweet and sour pork ribs in the bowl, suddenly not knowing what to do.

She even suspected that Bo Jinyan did it on purpose.

She deliberately embarrassed Bo Jinzhou, slapping him in the face on her behalf.

The man opposite him, with a slight smile on his lips, ignored the shocked looks on everyone's faces, picked up the glass of red wine on the table, and took a small sip.

The smile on his face was hard to suppress.

"Jinzhou, look at you! You don't take care of your own wife, but you expect your uncle to look after her instead..." Old Master Bo pointed in Bo Jinzhou's direction and said earnestly, "You!"

After being scolded by Old Master Bo, Bo Jinzhou's brows furrowed slightly.

Sang Ruo sensed that the atmosphere was a bit awkward and stepped in to smooth things over: "Thank you, Uncle, thank you, Grandpa. You don't need to take special care of me. I can do it myself."

Uncle.

When the word reached his ears, the man opposite him paused slightly in the hand holding the wine glass.

This was the first time Sang Ruo had called him "Uncle" in front of everyone.

It was also the first time he had heard her address him by that name.

For some reason...

Extremely annoyed.

As the dinner party drew to a close, the men drank several bottles of wine together. Bo Jinzhou and Bo Jinyan were both quite drunk, which prevented them from leaving the old house. Liang Yuxin and Bo Yukang were forced to stay overnight.

Just as Sang Ruo was about to call for a car to leave, Old Master Bo suddenly stopped her: "Xiao Ruo, Jin Zhou is drunk tonight, why don't you stay and take care of him for the night!"

“But Grandpa…” Sang Ruo tried her best to find an excuse: “Linlin is still staying with me, I have to go back to take care of her.”

Before Old Master Bo could even respond, Bo Yukang spoke first: "Isn't your friend living at your house? Can't she take care of that little girl?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's eyes turned to Sang Ruo.

Sang Ruo stared at the child for a moment. This Bo Yukang was just like his father, always able to pinpoint her weaknesses.

To the point.

Now that things have come to this point, if she were to continue refusing, it would be considered that she, as a 'wife,' was being unreasonable.

For the sake of Mr. Bo's health, she chose to swallow her anger and could not bring up the matter of divorce with Bo Jinzhou for the time being.

"Mom, why don't you take Dad upstairs to rest? Aunt Xin Xin and I will sleep in the guest room tonight..."

Bo Yukang subconsciously leaned closer to Liang Yuxin, a bright smile on his face.

Sang Ruo glanced at it, her eyes extremely dark.

It's ridiculous that he's closer to other people than to his own mother!

"Xiao Ruo, help Jin Zhou up! He's completely drunk."

Old Master Bo urged her again.

Sang Ruo felt helpless. Even though she resisted in her heart, she didn't dare to offend Old Master Bo in front of everyone.

She nodded gently, walked to Bo Jinzhou's side, and helped him up from the sofa.

Bo Jinzhou was clearly very drunk, and he staggered as he got up.

The man sitting opposite them on the sofa kept his gaze fixed on their backs, his eyes filled with a particularly deep anger.

Liang Yuxin was another person who looked at them with the same gaze.

"Aunt Xin, it's almost nine o'clock. Let's go upstairs to wash up and rest!"

Bo Yukang grabbed Liang Yuxin's hand and headed towards the second floor.

"good."

Liang Yuxin reached out and gently stroked Bo Yukang's head, her eyes filled with doting affection.

After everyone had left, the man on the sofa slowly got up and walked towards the stairs.

His gaze remained fixed on the tightly closed door on the second floor.

As they drew closer, they could faintly hear voices coming from inside: "Bo Jinzhou, you bastard!"
