Under the cold light of the hospital's intensive care unit, Bo Mingxiu stared at the video of the hotel brawl on his phone, his brows furrowed in a deep knot.
Miss Zhou's pearl necklace was entangled in Shen Qingyao's hair, and the scene of the two women fighting made his temples throb.
"Did you see that?" Wen Nianshu sneered, leaning against the windowsill. "This is the 'good daughter-in-law' you insisted on forcing on Jun Yi. Instead of letting her continue to make trouble, why not just marry her directly?"
"What nonsense!" Bo Mingxiu slammed his phone on the table. "It's better to marry Li Susu than her. At least she's pregnant! What else can the Shen family do except cause trouble?"
Wen Nianshu scoffed and turned to look at Bo Siyu, who was curled up on the sofa. "Siyu, you and Qingyao have been friends since childhood. Go and persuade her to stop pestering you."
Bo Siyu slowly turned the jade bracelet on her wrist with a cold look.
"A few words can break her obsession? Why not confront the Shen family directly and find her a suitable partner? Otherwise..." She paused deliberately, her nails tracing Shen Qingyao's distorted face on the phone screen, "tell her about her infertility and let her leave."
"Wouldn't it be harmful if this kind of thing got out?" Bo Mingxiu looked annoyed.
"Not necessarily," Wen Nianshu said. "There are so many young people who are DINKs nowadays."
Bo Siyu sat up straight and spoke tentatively.
"There's another way to solve this problem once and for all—let Jun Yi and Li Susu hold their wedding. By then, even if Shen Qingyao goes crazy again, she'll know when to end it."
There was a brief silence in the ward.
Bo Mingxiu spoke again, his tone firm: "Absolutely impossible."
Bo Siyu scoffed, "Maybe or not, it's not up to you to decide, Dad, just wait to be slapped in the face."
-
That night, an explosive piece of news swept across the Internet like wildfire.
In the high-definition camera, Bo Junyi, the heir of the Bo Group, pushed the young man in black sportswear against the car door, and the two intertwined their fingers and kissed passionately.
In just two hours, #Bo Junyi's homosexual relationship exposed# topped the hot search list, with the entry reading volume exceeding 200 million.
Netizens' discussions flooded social media platforms. From gossip forums to financial columns, everyone was speculating on how this influential business tycoon would respond to this sudden emotional storm.
In the hospital ward, Bo Siyu's eyes widened when she saw the trending search and she almost dropped her phone.
Wen Nianshu leaned over to take a look, and her face turned pale.
The two men looked at each other and hurriedly stuffed Bo Mingxiu's phone into the drawer - the old man had just had surgery, and if he saw this news, someone would definitely die.
Wen Nianshu stayed in the ward to smooth things over, while Bo Siyu hid in the corridor to make a phone call.
He started yelling anxiously as soon as the call was connected.
"Bo Junyi! I turned a blind eye to your relationship with Li Susu, why are you suddenly with a man——"
Before he could finish his words, the person on the other end replied lightly, "misunderstanding," and then hung up with a click.
I called again, but the phone was turned off.
There was a huge noise in the ward. Bo Mingxiu slammed the bed and asked for his cell phone, while Wen Nianshu stammered to explain.
Just as the quarrel was getting worse, there was a knock on the door.
Shen's parents walked in with a smile, and first chatted about business for a few minutes, then Shen's father suddenly said:
"We've figured out the situation between Qingyao and Junyi. You can't force love, so let's move on from now on."
Just as Bo Mingxiu breathed a sigh of relief, Shen's mother added, "Young people are free to date nowadays. Age and gender are not a problem. Sister Nianshu, don't take it too seriously."
As soon as these words came out, Bo Mingxiu's heart skipped a beat and he stared at Wen Nianshu's evasive eyes.
He snatched the phone away, and the top search result was a picture of his son kissing a "boy".
I felt dizzy, my eyes went dark, and I fell straight onto the bed.
In the middle of the night, Bo Junyi received a call and went to the hospital.
As soon as I walked into the corridor, I saw my mother and sister waiting there from afar.
When he got closer, Wen Nianshu stepped forward and grabbed the collar of Bo Junyi's suit: "Tell me the truth! Did you really do that with the boy——"
Bo Siyu's mind was more open, and she seemed calmer. "Mom, let him go first and let him explain slowly."
Wen Nianshu finally let go of her hand and said, "Tell me, I want to see how you clear your name!"
Bo Junyi sighed, "The video is real, but the person in the video isn't a boy, it's Susu. I never thought it would get to this point. I wanted to dispel the rumors, but when I thought about how I could completely put an end to Shen Qingyao's thoughts, I felt it was unnecessary."
After hearing this, Wen Nianshu's eyes turned red with anger: "Do you still care about your father's life? He just had a stent surgery!"
These words made Bo Junyi's throat tighten and he was speechless for a moment.
After entering the ward, Bo Mingxu slowly woke up to the regular ticking sound of the monitor.
In the hazy vision, the son was standing beside the bed in a neat suit, but this scene kept overlapping with the figure entangled in the hot search.
He coughed violently and tried to get up, frightening Bo Siyu so much that she hurriedly supported him: "Dad! He was pretending! He took Su Su to a blind date disguised as a man just to avoid being pressured into marriage!"
"Really?" Bo Mingxiu stared at his son with cloudy eyes.
"The 'boy' in the video is Susu."
Before Bo Junyi could finish his words, he was interrupted by his father's roar: "You took her on a blind date? Are you crazy?"
Wen Nianshu folded her arms and sneered: "What did I say? There's no hope for those in the late stage of love brain!"
"How can a normal relationship be called love-brain?" Bo Junyi retorted with his neck stiff.
Just as Bo Mingxiu was about to say something, his cell phone rang.
As expected, it was a call from a shareholder of the group.
In the next half hour, Bo Mingxiu received no less than twenty calls, all asking about the rumors about Bo Junyi's homosexuality.
