Just then, Bo Xuan rubbed his sleepy eyes and came out: "Wow, it smells so good, did Daddy make breakfast?"
Bo Jingcheng smiled and patted his son's head: "That's right, sit down and eat. After we finish eating, the three of us will go out for a walk to relax."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xinyue calmly replied, "I'm sorry! I have to go to work today, so I'm afraid I can't go out with you."
Upon hearing this, a fleeting look of smugness crossed Bo Xuan's eyes.
A strange look flashed in Bo Jingcheng's eyes, and the father and son exchanged a glance.
Bo Jingcheng feigned regret and asked, "Wife, are we really not going?"
Looking at the expressions on the father and son's faces, Jiang Xinyue couldn't help but feel a little doubtful, but she still nodded firmly: "It really won't work. I just passed the interview and have to go to the company first thing this morning. You two go out and have some fun, you'll have just as much fun."
Bo Xuan feigned disappointment and took Jiang Xinyue's hand, asking, "Mommy, when will you have time to spend with me and Daddy?"
Jiang Xinyue squatted down and gently pinched Bo Xuan's cheek: "Baby, once Mommy is done with this busy period, I'll definitely spend more time with you, okay?"
Bo Jingcheng chimed in, "Alright, honey, your work is important. But you also need to take care of yourself and not overwork yourself."
Jiang Xinyue nodded silently, ate only a few bites of breakfast and drank a glass of milk, then got up and went upstairs to tidy up briefly before heading to work at Shengshi Group.
She had just reached the stairs when she saw Bo Jingcheng making a phone call.
"Make sure everything is arranged properly and nothing goes wrong. We must give her a surprise today." Bo Jingcheng deliberately lowered his voice, but it still faintly reached Jiang Xinyue's ears in the quiet villa.
She paused, her doubts deepening. A surprise? Was it for her? But why had the father and son acted so strangely just now? Before she could think further, Bo Jingcheng seemed to sense something, turned around and saw Jiang Xinyue standing on the stairs. His face immediately lit up with a smile, and he hurriedly said "That's all for now" into the phone before hanging up.
"Wife, what's wrong?" Bo Jingcheng asked with a smile, but his eyes were somewhat evasive.
"It's nothing, I think it's about time, I have to go." Although Jiang Xinyue was full of questions, she still answered as if nothing was wrong.
"Okay, drive carefully." Bo Jingcheng said as he walked over and gently kissed Jiang Xinyue on the cheek.
Jiang Xinyue nodded, turned around and went out.
Throughout the journey, she pondered Bo Jingcheng's phone call and the strange behavior of the father and son.
Were they secretly planning something? But was this so-called "surprise" really a surprise? A sense of unease welled up in her heart.
Upon arriving at Shengshi Group, Jiang Xinyue forced herself to shift her focus to her new job.
But she was somewhat distracted all morning and almost made mistakes several times.
She had finally made it to lunch break and was about to go to the break room for some fresh air when her phone suddenly vibrated. It was a WeChat message from Shen Siyao.
[Jiang Xinyue, today is my birthday, and Jingcheng has specially thrown a birthday party for me. The venue is... lots of old classmates will be coming, and you'll be there too, right?]
Then, Shen Siyao sent a photo.
The photo shows a limited-edition designer bag, exactly the same as the one Bo Jingcheng gave her yesterday.
"Look, this is the birthday present Jingcheng gave me. Oh, and the necklace from last time—I know Jingcheng bought you the exact same one too."
Even if he is your husband, so what? The things he buys for you are all the ones I didn't choose. If you know what's good for you, you'll give up your position as Mrs. Bo.
As always, Shen Siyao would only send WeChat messages to rant at her, but dared not confront her face to face.
Even if Shen Siyao wasn't tired of this kind of trick, she was tired of watching it.
Jiang Xinyue looked at the message sent by Shen Siyao and sneered inwardly.
She knew that Shen Siyao wouldn't give up easily. This woman was always trying to get her attention and sow discord between her and Bo Jingcheng.
Recalling Bo Jingcheng's ingratiating manner when he gave her the bag yesterday, and looking at the photos sent by Shen Siyao, Jiang Xinyue's doubts were instantly replaced by anger.
Could Bo Jingcheng's so-called "surprise" be a birthday party for Shen Siyao?
Jiang Xinyue took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down. She decided not to alert them and to see what Bo Jingcheng and Shen Siyao were up to. She quickly replied to Shen Siyao: "Siyao, congratulations on your birthday! Unfortunately, I just started a new job today and can't find the time. Have fun!"
After sending the message, Jiang Xinyue fell into deep thought.
Shen Siyao deliberately sent a provocative message; it certainly wasn't just to show off.
Her biggest goal is probably to steal Bo Jingcheng and take the position of Mrs. Bo.
Having experienced Bo Jingcheng's inconsistent behavior over this period, she seems to have become indifferent to many things.
No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't warm his heart. In his heart, his white moonlight was still the most important.
[Host, a friendly reminder: the male lead, Bo Jingcheng's, affection level towards you has dropped to 60%.]
[Continue with the mission?]
Jiang Xinyue directly refused, "Not for now!"
She would rather disappear from this world than be troubled by love again, and try to please a man who still has another woman in his heart, which would only ruin her life.
"Miss Jiang?"
Just as Jiang Xinyue was lost in thought, she heard Fu Heng's cold voice.
Jiang Xinyue came to her senses and saw Fu Heng standing in front of her, patting the table in front of her.
"Slacking off during work hours, Ms. Jiang, is this your work ethic?"
Jiang Xinyue quickly stood up and said apologetically, "President Fu, I'm sorry, I'll get back to work right away."
Fu Heng frowned slightly, his gaze lingering on Jiang Xinyue's face for a moment, as if he could tell that her absent-mindedness was not without reason. "You don't look well today, what happened?" His tone was still indifferent, but for once, it carried a hint of concern.
Jiang Xinyue felt a warmth in her heart, but she didn't want to reveal too much personal information in front of her new boss. "President Fu, it's nothing, just a small matter at home. I'll adjust myself."
Fu Heng nodded slightly. "Work and life should be kept separate. Don't let family matters affect your work. Shengshi Group doesn't support idlers. Since you passed the interview, I acknowledge your abilities, but work attitude is equally important." With that, he turned to leave.
Jiang Xinyue quickly replied, "Yes, President Fu, I understand." She secretly reminded herself that she had finally succeeded in the interview and was able to work at a big company like Shengshi Group, so she absolutely could not lose this job.
However, before she could get back to work, her phone vibrated again. This time it was a message from Bo Jingcheng: "Honey, I have some things to do at the company tonight, so I might be home late. Don't wait up for me for dinner."
Jiang Xinyue looked at the message and sneered inwardly. She thought that the so-called "business at the company" was probably just her going to celebrate the birthday of her beloved.
She turned off her phone, composed herself, and continued to focus intently on her work.
