Chapter 122 We Can Only Be Husband and Wife
September Mansion, a property Jiang Yimian purchased a month ago, is one of the wealthy residential communities in Yanjing.
Back in her own place, Jiang Yimian finally felt her tense body relax.
Originally, Tan Yusu wanted Huo Yun to leave when they arrived at Jiuyue Prefecture, but the guy refused to leave and shamelessly followed her.
He sat down on the single sofa very naturally and familiarly, crossed his legs, tilted his head slightly, and reached for a cigarette to light it.
Tan Yusu stepped forward and snatched it away, saying, "No smoking, Mianmian is pregnant."
Huo Yun scoffed and reluctantly put away the lighter.
Jiang Yimian's calm eyes swept over the two of them.
"Su Su, you and him..."
Huo Yun raised an eyebrow, looking at Tan Yusu with a leisurely air, waiting for her answer.
If he had said it was no big deal, he would have strangled that little bastard.
Tan Yusu knew, of course, that she couldn't immediately sever ties; this man was no different from a dog when he went crazy.
"I'm with him now."
Huo Yun's eyebrows relaxed in satisfaction, and the corners of his mouth curved into a wider smile, he was extremely pleased with himself.
Jiang Yimian frowned, her beautiful eyebrows furrowing, and asked directly, "Did he threaten you?"
Huo Yun was displeased upon hearing this and began to shout, "Do you think everyone is like Bo Jinzhou? Threatening people at the drop of a hat. We are in love."
He spoke of their mutual affection with great ease and pride.
The expression on her face was incredibly charming.
Tan Yusu: "...It's not that we're mutually attracted, but in short, we're a good match."
They were perfectly compatible in bed.
Jiang Yimian pursed her lips and didn't say anything in front of Huo Yun, "Boss Huo, thank you for your willingness to help. We agreed that you could have anything you wanted after the matter was completed. Now you can make your request."
Huo Yun cleared his throat. "No need. You're my Su Su's best friend, practically family to her. It's only right that I do anything for her."
Tan Yusu was surprised; she hadn't expected him to be so easy to talk to now.
Taking advantage of the situation, he said, "Then send more people to guard Jiuyue Prefecture. I'm afraid Bo Jinzhou might try to force us here."
Huo Yun held her hand and examined it carefully. "No problem."
After sending the person away, Jiang Yimian finally spoke, "If your parents find out, have you thought about what you'll do?"
Tan Yusu lay lazily on the sofa, staring at the ceiling. "It's not serious, just a casual relationship. They won't say anything."
If that were the case, she wouldn't be afraid to go public.
Jiang Yimian knew how old-fashioned and stubborn her parents were.
"I think Huo Yun has already lost his temper, and I'm afraid you won't be able to handle the situation later."
Tan Yusu's lips twitched slightly. "At worst, I'll just have a fight with my parents."
She was well-behaved and obedient from a young age, and was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Her decision to pursue art instead of studying finance and management was the first time she had ever gone against her parents like this.
But with Tan Sijin in the family business, and her sister and brother-in-law there, she doesn't need to take on any responsibility.
Her parents eventually gave in to her wishes, but after this incident, they kept a much closer eye on her.
Even though she's 23 years old now, she still has a curfew.
Getting home before 10 PM sounds absurd to anyone.
This made Tan Yusu's desire to rebel grow stronger.
Huo Yun was just a trigger, and she needed such a trigger to vent and explode.

As the Bentley drove along the highway, Song Zhou, sitting in the front seat, received a phone call. He frowned and looked at Bo Jinzhou in the back seat. "Mr. Bo, Bo Qingshan has escaped. The police are investigating."
Bo Jinzhou opened his eyes, which had been closed for rest, and his gaze turned cold and sharp. "Send some men to Jiuyue Prefecture to protect her safety."
"OK."
As darkness fell, the recent rains and high humidity created a gloomy, overcast sky that weighed heavily on everyone's spirits.
Bo Jinzhou watched as Huo Yun came out of the September residence, got into an SUV, and left.
Looking out the window at the bodyguards patrolling in plainclothes, Bo Jinzhou knew they were there to keep an eye on him.
He swaggered out of the car, wearing a long black overcoat, tall and imposing, leaning against the car and lighting a cigarette.
A slight breeze blew by, dispersing the grayish-white smoke. A few strands of hair fell from his forehead, revealing his cold and stern expression, somewhat desolate.
The bodyguard saw him and immediately reported to Jiang Yimian.
Knowing that he was downstairs, Jiang Yimian pondered. Since she left, Bo Jinzhou had not made any other moves.
Given his personality, if he really wanted to keep her locked up, he wouldn't have let her go so easily.
So, he let me go on purpose.
What does he want to do now?
When Meng Mingyan learned that Jiang Yimian had come out, he hurriedly left the company and went to Jiuyue Mansion. When he got out of the car, he naturally saw Bo Jinzhou.
The man remained unmoved, his expression unchanged, not even bothering to give him a glance.
Meng Mingyan stepped forward and said, "Jinzhou."
"No, Mr. Bo, are you still not satisfied?"
Bo Jinzhou exhaled a smoke ring. He had already smoked several cigarettes, and his aura was still a cool, woody scent. His cigarettes were custom-made, and instead of having a foul smell, they had a faint, pleasant fragrance.
It's gone with a gust of wind.
"She needs to rest more recently, so you should take care of the company. The agent I found will be returning to China in a couple of days. I'll have to trouble you for a few days."
His dignified demeanor surprised Meng Mingyan, leaving her somewhat amused and exasperated.
“She won’t accept your kindness. I will help her after all the hard work she put into getting the Jiang family back, but you have no right to say these things now.”
“Mianmian’s personality has changed a lot. She’s decisive now. If you two part ways amicably, you can at least salvage some of your relationship.”
Bo Jinzhou sneered, his voice deep and magnetic, tinged with arrogance: "Affection? Affection between siblings? She and I can only be husband and wife."
Seeing that he was unmoved by reason, Meng Mingyan shook his head and left.
He came mainly to see Jiang Yimian and also to discuss work-related matters.
It was just dinnertime, so Jiang Yimian ordered hotel food delivery and asked Meng Mingyan to join her.
The three sat down. Meng Mingyan looked at the plastic box. Although it was beautifully packaged, eating out was never as healthy as cooking at home.
"I'll find you a nanny; it's not good to always eat this kind of food."
Jiang Yimian readily accepted: "Okay."
Just as she finished speaking, the doorbell rang. Jiang Yimian got up to open the door, and Wang Ma stood there smiling, holding a thermos in her hand: "Mianmian, I've brought you your meal."
Jiang Yimian was surprised that Wang Ma would come over. Looking behind her, she saw that Bo Jinzhou had not followed, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wang Ma, what brings you here?"
Aunt Wang walked straight in. "I was worried you wouldn't eat well, so I specially made a meal for you." Seeing that there were other people present, she said in a very familiar manner, "You have friends here. It's a pity I only made enough for one person."
Tan Yusu waved her hand, "Wang Ma, don't worry about us, we have food."
When Wang Ma heard her say that, she stopped being polite.
Open the insulated bag, take out the insulated containers inside, and arrange them one by one.
It has meat, vegetables, and chicken soup, making it a nutritionally balanced meal. The aroma is irresistible when you open the package, and it looks incredibly appetizing.
Tan Yusu, biting her chopsticks, suddenly felt that takeout didn't taste so good anymore.
