Chapter 187 No More Than This
Sang Ruo turned her head upon hearing the sound and immediately met the man's gaze.
There was a profound meaning in those deep eyes, which suddenly made her somewhat unable to figure them out.
But she knew perfectly well what he was thinking.
She just signed the papers tonight, and there's still a 30-day cooling-off period. During that time, she doesn't know if that scoundrel Bo Jinzhou will continue to cause trouble, so she can't make any promises to anyone right now.
Including Bo Jinyan.
"I don't understand what you mean." Sang Ruo instinctively looked away, intending to completely steer the conversation away from the topic: "It's getting late, Mr. Bo, if you have nothing else to do, please head back! Linlin and Annie should be back soon..."
“I haven’t seen Linlin in a long time either. I’ll leave after he gets back.” Bo Jinyan suddenly leaned closer, placing his well-defined hand on her waist and pulling her a few steps closer. “Miss Sang, are you deliberately changing the subject? Are you afraid to talk to me about relationship issues?”
She wasn't just afraid; she didn't dare talk to him at all.
Because this man's thoughts are quite profound, even to this day, she still cannot see through his true intentions.
How could I dare to open my heart and talk to him about matters of the heart?
You're overthinking it.
Sang Ruo instinctively reached out and placed her hand in front of the man's chest, trying to push him away.
But Bo Jinyan took the opportunity to reach out and grab her wrist with one hand.
The man's eyes narrowed, becoming exceptionally cold: "Before you were divorced, it was because I didn't have the right to demand anything from you. But now that you've signed the papers, Miss Sang, what are you still hesitating about? You wouldn't actually be in love with Fang Gan..."
Before he could finish speaking, the sound of wheels rolling on the road came from outside.
Sang Ruo's heart suddenly leaped into her throat.
She raised her eyes in disbelief, looking in shock toward the doorway.
Didn't my senior brother say he wouldn't be back tonight? Why is he suddenly back?
"Speak of the devil and he appears; it seems people are still easily fooled..."
Bo Jinyan's lips curled up slightly, revealing a captivating smile.
"Let me go right now! It won't look good if he sees us."
Sang Ruo struggled with all her might, but the man's hand on her waist tightened its grip, showing no intention of letting go.
"So what if he sees us? There's always been an ambiguous relationship between us, a relationship that's been kept secret all along. It's time for it to come into the open."
Sang Ruo's mind was in turmoil for a moment because of his words.
Although her senior brother had already guessed their relationship, he had warned her that their current relationship was very dangerous, and that he would be very angry if he saw anything he shouldn't see.
“We can’t be seen by anyone right now, not even my sworn brother. If you really insist on doing this, Mr. Bo, you don’t need to come see me anymore starting tomorrow…”
Her voice held an unprecedented chill.
The footsteps outside the door grew closer and closer.
She even heard her senior brother take out his keys.
The next second, the man stretched out his large hands, picked her up horizontally, and quickly headed towards the bathroom on the first floor.
Just as the main door was about to open, Bo Jinyan slammed the bathroom door shut and locked it.
"Bang--"
The door slammed shut with such a loud sound that it almost disturbed the entire space.
Bo Jinyan scooped her up and placed her on the sink, bracing her hands on the countertop. His face darkened as he asked her, "Miss Sang, were you threatening me just now?"
"yes."
Sang Ruo's voice had barely faded when a familiar voice came from the living room: "Ruo Ruo, Ruo Ruo..."
Bo Jinyan forcibly spread her legs apart, then leaned close to her ear, his voice laced with extreme danger: "Miss Sang, have I been too good to you all this time? Now you dare to threaten me?"
"Ruoruo".
Sang Ruo's throat bobbed uncontrollably.
She quickly responded towards the door, "Senior, I'm in the restroom."
As the words fell, that extremely dangerous aura spread around again: "But what can I do? It's like I'm under your spell; I have to do whatever you say. It's truly ironic..."
The implication is that he is indirectly admitting that he has fallen in love with her.
However, what he said was indeed the truth.
From the time they met until now, it seems that Bo Jinyan has always respected her and rarely does anything to disobey her.
If they really do have a future together, perhaps she would indeed be a good husband.
But that's just a hypothetical...
"Ruoruo, have you had dinner? I brought back some of your favorite foods and put them on the table. If you're hungry, you can eat some later!"
Just as Sang Ruo was about to respond, the man in front of her suddenly moved closer to her.
The next instant, Bo Jinyan suddenly bit her neck with extreme force, as if it were a punishment.
Sang Ruo was startled by this sudden action and couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.
But Bo Jinyan still had no intention of letting her go, and Sang Ruo's heart began to pound wildly.
Although there was a door between them, Fang Gan seemed to sense that something was wrong with her, so he asked with concern, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Sang Ruo's gaze unconsciously drifted towards the direction of the gate.
The bathroom door was frosted, and Fang Gan was very close by; she could see his reflection in the glass at a glance.
Sang Ruo tried her best to remain calm and replied in a composed tone, "Senior brother, I'm fine. I just saw a cockroach. Why did you suddenly come back? Didn't you say you weren't coming back tonight?"
“The old man’s condition has improved a lot after taking the medicine, so there’s no need to keep watch tonight.” Fang Gan’s voice was exceptionally gentle. “After you come out, remember to eat something. I’m going upstairs to take a shower.”
"good."
Only after the footsteps faded into the distance did Sang Ruo's previously anxious heart gradually relax.
Only after Fang Gan had completely reached the second floor did Sang Ruo place her hands on the man's chest for support.
After being interrupted, Bo Jinyan lowered his eyes and quietly watched her: "Even at a time like this, Miss Sang can still chat so happily with her senior brother. Your heart is truly extraordinary."
"Did you do this on purpose?"
Sang Ruo looked at him with a stern face, her eyes filled with a chilling coldness.
"It was just a spur-of-the-moment thing." Bo Jinyan smiled faintly. "What, are you unhappy?"
Sang Ruo's tone was extremely cold: "There must be no next time."
