Chapter 19 Grandpa Will Stand Up for You



"Get out! Get out!" Jiang Xinyue pointed at the door, tears welling in her eyes, and glared angrily at Bo Jingcheng.

"Fine, I'm leaving." Bo Jingcheng nodded, picked up his suit jacket, and stormed off.

Watching Bo Jingcheng slam the door and leave, Jiang Xinyue could no longer suppress her emotions, buried her head in her knees, and silently shed tears.

Bo Jingcheng strode out of his house, the cold night wind hitting his face, instantly extinguishing some of his anger.

Recalling the tears in Jiang Xinyue's eyes, and the angry yet desperate expression on her face, his heart felt as if it had been struck hard by a hammer.

Just then, his phone rang; it was Shen Siyao calling.

Bo Jingcheng answered the call, and Shen Siyao's weak and feeble voice came through the phone, "Jingcheng, my stomach hurts, can you take me to Xi'an?"

Upon hearing this, Bo Jingcheng immediately became anxious. "Siyao, what happened? Why does your stomach suddenly hurt?"

"I must have eaten something bad, Jingcheng, it hurts so much..."

Upon hearing this, Bo Jingcheng immediately said anxiously, "Wait here, I'll be right there."

As soon as he finished speaking, Bo Jingcheng hung up the phone and ran towards his luxury car.

At that moment, Jiang Xinyue was upstairs, watching all of this.

Just now, Shen Siyao sent her a provocative WeChat message.

Watching Bo Jingcheng's hurried departure, Jiang Xinyue's tears flowed again.

With trembling hands, she opened the WeChat message from Shen Siyao, which read: "Jiang Xinyue, you can't keep Jingcheng. There will always be a place for me in his heart. As long as I make one phone call, he will come to see me without hesitation."

Each word was like a sharp blade, piercing straight into Jiang Xinyue's heart.

Jiang Xinyue gripped her phone tightly, her knuckles turning white from the force. Tears streamed down her face, blurring the heart-wrenching words Chen Siyao had spoken.

Her chest heaved violently, and she was almost consumed by a mix of resentment and anger.

At that moment, a system notification sounded in my ear.

[Host, the male lead, Bo Jingcheng's, current level of affection for you has dropped to 60%.]

Jiang Xinyue knew that she didn't have much time left; once her risk dropped to 10%, she would disappear from this world.

She came into this world to conquer Bo Jingcheng, but now the situation is getting increasingly out of control.

Jiang Xinyue took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

If we don't continue the conquest, she will disappear from this world.

But seeing Bo Jingcheng repeatedly turn to Shen Siyao, she became increasingly disappointed in him.

He changed, became utterly unfamiliar, as if he were a completely different person.

The gentleness and thoughtfulness she once showed are gone; all I feel for her is disgust.

So, Jiang Xinyue was tired, and she didn't want to continue.

That night, Bo Jingcheng never returned.

Jiang Xinyue didn't see Bo Jingcheng again until the next day.

Inside the restaurant, seeing Bo Jingcheng return from outside, Old Master Bo's expression turned somewhat unpleasant.

"Where have you been so early in the morning?"

Jiang Xinyue noticed that Bo Jingcheng had changed his clothes and returned.

She remembered that he was wearing a white shirt last night.

But today, they've changed into sportswear.

Bo Jingcheng remained calm and smiled, "Grandpa, why are you so nervous? I just went out for exercise early this morning."

Old Master Bo clearly didn't believe it and couldn't help but say, "Do you need to change your clothes to exercise? You didn't go out last night, did you?"

Bo Jingcheng's eyes flickered slightly when asked by Grandpa Bo, but he remained calm and said, "Grandpa, I did not sleep well last night. I thought the air would be nice in the morning, so I went out for a run. I worked up a sweat while running, so I bought a set of sportswear outside to change into."

Old Master Bo snorted coldly, clearly dissatisfied with this explanation, but he did not pursue the matter further.

Jiang Xinyue quietly ate her breakfast, occasionally putting food on Bo Xuan's plate.

She knew Bo Jingcheng was lying, but at this point, she no longer had the energy to expose him.

Bo Xuan's round eyes darted around for a moment, then he quickly changed the subject: "Dad, is exercising tiring? Are you hungry? Come and have breakfast with Xuanxuan."

Seeing her son smoothing things over for Bo Jingcheng, Jiang Xinyue felt very uncomfortable.

If she really divorces Bo Jingcheng, she must fight for custody of her son.

However, Bo Jingcheng still doesn't want to sign the divorce agreement.

"Okay, my son still loves me the most." Bo Jingcheng walked over and couldn't help but pat Bo Xuan's head.

Afterwards, Bo Jingcheng sat down at the table, picked up his chopsticks, but felt that every bite of food tasted like cardboard.

He secretly glanced at Jiang Xinyue; her expression was calm, but her movements as she served food to Bo Xuan were slightly mechanical.

Old Master Bo seemed to see through the distance between the two and coughed lightly, "Well, Xinyue! It's rare for you to come back to the old house. Why don't you stay here for a few more days?"

Jiang Xinyue was slightly taken aback when she heard what Old Master Bo said, and pondered to herself.

She didn't want to stay in this old house any longer. Facing Bo Jingcheng and the current awkward situation, every minute and every second was agonizing for her.

But since Old Master Bo had already said so, she couldn't very well refuse directly.

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Xinyue forced a smile and said, "Grandpa, thank you for your kindness. However, I have some work to attend to recently, so I'm afraid I can't stay any longer."

"A job?" Upon hearing this, Old Master Bo looked surprised. "Xinyue, you've found a job?"

Jiang Xinyue had been a full-time housewife for five years, and Bo Jingcheng had been handling all the company's affairs.
