Chapter 887 Complaint
They were originally two different families. Although they were related, his relationship with the Lu family was quite distant compared to the close relationship between the Bo and Xu families.
It was only because Bo Jinyan and Sang Ruo had a cooperative relationship with her that they seemed much closer.
Bo Jinyan nodded slightly: "I appreciate your kind reminder. Nan Chu, is there anything else you need?"
"It's nothing. I just wanted to take advantage of my time off work to visit my cousin's wife."
Lu Nanchu's gaze fell on her injured arm: "Sister-in-law, is your injury getting better?"
"Much better, thank you," Sang Ruo said with a smile.
As if remembering something, Lu Nanchu suddenly asked, "I heard that my father-in-law's arm was also injured, apparently shot by someone. Could it be you, cousin?"
Bo Jinyan didn't speak, but a hint of unease flashed in his eyes.
Lu Nanchu could tell almost immediately that he had tacitly agreed: "Cousin, don't worry, I won't tell anyone. If you really want to invest, you can tell me. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now."
It was at this moment that Lu Nanchu finally understood why Bo Jinyan had done this.
It's simply that Bo Jinyan discovered Xu Yi's two previous attempts to have his cousin's wife shot, and Bo Jinyan wanted to retaliate.
She really didn't need to get too involved in this matter. If she did, she might be targeted by Xu Yi, and even arouse his suspicion.
She doesn't need to cause this trouble.
After saying that, Lu Nanchu picked up her bag and left.
Only after the door closed did Sang Ruo quietly breathe a sigh of relief: "Ayan, you targeted Xu Chen, so you transferred the remaining shares of Lu's Bank under his name? Does Uncle know about this?"
“I already know, and he just came to see me.” Bo Jinyan loosened his tie and said calmly, “My uncle is just threatening me with the relationship between the Bo family and the Xu family, but I ignored him.”
The main reason is that he doesn't want to talk to his uncle.
Since they have already become enemies, Xu Yi is his enemy, and there is no need to say anything more to his enemy.
Upon hearing this, Sang Ruo frowned and reminded him, "Ayan, aren't you afraid that Dad will find out about this?"
If Old Master Bo knew that Ayan had gone against his wishes and fallen out with the Xu family, he would be very angry.
"If Dad finds out, I'll explain it to him, so you don't need to worry."
Bo Jinyan reached out and took her slender hand, asking with concern, "How are you? Is your arm feeling better? Does it still hurt?"
Besides work and dealing with Xu Chen, what he cared about most these days was Sang Ruo's injuries and how well she was recovering.
Sang Ruo smiled faintly: "My injuries are much better. Although it still hurts a little when I move, it's much better than a few days ago, so you don't need to worry."
She knew that everything Ayan did was for her, so whenever Nan Chu asked him questions, she always defended him.
He couldn't bear to see her get hurt, and she couldn't bear to see him misunderstood.
Just as Bo Jinyan was about to speak again, his phone suddenly rang in his pocket.
He glanced at it and saw that the call was a voice call from within China, and it was made by Mr. Bo.
Bo Jinyan answered the phone immediately: "Hey, Dad, why are you calling me at this hour? Aren't you sleeping?"
It's 4 PM New York time, which would be early morning in China, before dawn.
Why are you calling him instead of sleeping right now?
Mr. Bo has never had the habit of staying up late.
"You've kept me up all night." Old Master Bo said irritably, holding his phone. "Ayan, there are some things that are inconvenient to say over the phone. I need to video call you."
Bo Jinyan looked completely bewildered by what he said, but he still followed his instructions, picked up the tablet computer on the coffee table, and switched the voice call to a video call.
"What's going on, Dad? What's the matter that you're making such a big deal out of it?"
One wall in Mr. Bo's room was a projector. He simply picked up the remote control from the bedside table and turned on the projector.
After a few more manipulations, Bo Jinyan's handsome face soon appeared on the projector.
Old Master Bo sat on the bed, still annoyed, and said, "Hmph! You have the nerve to say that? I'm asking you, what have you been doing to the Xu family in America lately? Why did you take away the shares of Lu's Bank under Xu Chen's name?!"
Upon hearing this, Bo Jinyan knew that the man knew about the recent events.
He explained calmly, "Dad, the whole story is very complicated. Xu Yi hired someone to shoot Xiao Ru first! And it happened twice in a row! Xu Chen was involved too! Tell me, how can I tolerate these two, father and son, colluding like this to harm Xiao Ru like this?!"
If he doesn't retaliate and remove the Xu family from the ranks of the elite families in Beijing, how can he be fair to Xiao Ruo for all the harm she has suffered these past few days?
Don't forget, they were the ones who provoked him first!
And they struck first!
"Xu Yi? Is that how you address your uncle?" Old Master Bo noticed the change in his address and had a vague feeling: "Why did they shoot Xiao Ruo? Did you do something to wrong the Xu family when you were in China?!"
Otherwise, given Xu Yi's opportunistic nature, why would he have gone so far as to try to kill Xiao Ruo?
That doesn't make sense.
Moreover, he had a strange feeling that the struggle between Ayan and Xu Yi had reached a fever pitch and was far from being something he could easily pull back.
Upon hearing this, Bo Jinyan cried out, "I'm innocent! Dad! You know how many things happened between Xiaoruo and me in the capital. I didn't have time to target them..."
“But I came to the United States only to work, but they used it as an opportunity to deal with Xiao Ruo! How can I not target them?”
If he doesn't intervene now, Xiao Ru will only encounter danger one after another, and she might be lucky enough to escape it once or twice.
But will Xiaoruo be able to have such good luck every time?
Thinking of this, Bo Jinyan hated Xu Yi to the core and even erased the last trace of kinship between them.
“I believe you, but don’t forget that the shares Xu Chen holds were given to him by the Lu family when they were betrothed. These shares are not something you should touch, so why are you trying to touch them?”
After a pause, Old Master Bo continued, "Furthermore, I've also heard that at the Lu's Bank board meeting, you publicly targeted your cousin and excluded the Xu family from the new project plan. Is that true?!"
He asked several questions in a row, which stunned Bo Jinyan.
It should be noted that the contents of the board meeting were known only to him and Nan Chu, besides the directors who attended the meeting.
How did Dad know something that even Xiaoruo didn't know?
