Chapter 226 A Kiss of Gratitude
Who told you this?
Sang Ruo frowned, looking at him with a puzzled expression.
Bo Jinyan's eyes darkened.
He had already made an agreement with Song Linlin that they would not reveal a word about this matter.
Since you've promised your child, you must keep your word.
The man raised an eyebrow slightly, his voice deep and resonant: "With my abilities, if I really wanted to investigate these matters, it wouldn't be difficult, would it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Bo Jinyan stared at her quietly, his face calm and expressionless, revealing nothing about her.
Sang Ruo nodded thoughtfully, but said nothing.
Someone must have told him, but he declined to reveal who that person was.
Since it has only been less than a day since the incident, it is impossible for him to have someone follow her or have someone investigate the matter.
After a moment of calm, she asked softly, "So, did you help me suppress the trending topics about this?"
"Otherwise, in Miss Sang's opinion, who do you think it could be?"
He didn't respond to her, but instead asked her this question.
Sang Ruo was stumped for a moment.
She really couldn't think of anyone else but him.
"You don't actually think it's your pretty boy, do you?"
Bo Jinyan suddenly moved closer, his eyes filled with coldness.
Sang Ruo's back suddenly stiffened.
She turned to look at him incredulously: "What nonsense are you spouting? He doesn't even know about this, so how could he possibly help me suppress the trending topics? I know about this because you did it for me..."
"So, Miss Sang, how do you plan to thank me? It seems I've helped you again."
Bo Jinyan's lips curved into a faint smile as he glanced at her with a half-smile.
Sang Ruo swallowed subconsciously: "Otherwise, I'll treat you to a meal another day..."
"Let's skip the meal! It's not sincere enough, and I don't like this way of expressing gratitude."
Sang Ruo asked helplessly, "Then how do you show sincerity? If one meal isn't enough, how about two?"
The man laughed in exasperation at her words: "In your eyes, is eating the only way to express gratitude?"
"Food is as essential as iron; you'll feel hungry if you skip a meal," Sang Ruo said earnestly. "Eating is a normal human need..."
"But feelings are a normal human need, aren't they? Why don't you just kiss me, Miss Sang?"
Bo Jinyan suddenly reached out and cupped her face in his hands, a look of expectation appearing in his eyes.
When Sang Ruo's eyes met his, her eyelashes trembled slightly.
It turns out that this is the way he wanted to express his gratitude.
The atmosphere was somewhat subtle, causing a faint sense of tension to rise in her heart for no apparent reason.
After a few seconds, she asked softly, "You must have spent a lot of money for me this time, right? A kiss probably can't express my gratitude, can it?"
"Others may not be able to, but you can."
Bo Jinyan's lips curved upwards even more.
Then, he released his hands that were holding her face, tilted his head slightly, and turned his face away.
Before, they always kissed each other on the lips; this was the first time she had kissed his cheek.
A faint sense of tension suddenly welled up in her heart.
The hand resting beside the trunk involuntarily clenched for a moment.
Finally, she closed her eyes, slowly moved closer to his lips, and kissed his cheek.
As their lips parted from his face, a hand suddenly appeared on the back of his neck.
The next second, the man suddenly pulled her closer again.
A passionate kiss landed on her lips in an instant.
Sang Ruo was so nervous that she grabbed his arm in an instant.
The minute-long kiss left her heart pounding and she couldn't calm down for a long time.
Bo Jinyan placed his hand on her hair, gently stroking it, his voice exceptionally gentle: "If this happens again, remember to tell me immediately."
"Your company has so many things waiting for you to handle every day, how could I possibly trouble you?"
Sang Ruo broke free from his embrace, her mood gradually calming down.
“This matter has blown up so much, there must be someone behind it. You can’t solve it by yourself. Rather than letting things escalate to an uncontrollable point, it’s better to nip it in the bud.”
The man spoke in a calm tone, his gaze fixed intently ahead.
Sang Ruo turned her head to look at his handsome profile, and a faint flutter rose in her heart.
Of all the men she's met so far, he's the first one who's been so cunning.
"Thank you, Bo Jinyan."
Sang Ruo looked at him intently, her eyes filled with gratitude.
Bo Jinyan glanced at him indifferently, then changed the subject: "Did you find anything suspicious at the scene?"
Sang Ruo frowned slightly: "There really is one person who is indeed suspicious."
Sang Ruo quickly took out her phone, adjusted the video to a suitable position, and pointed at the figure on the screen: "This reporter was Nini's former colleague. She was fired by their TV station because she was bribed. I suspect that this person might be in cahoots with them?"
"Chen Anni's former colleague? What's her name?"
His name is Zhang Xiong.
Bo Jinyan's gaze was deep and cold, his eyes fixed on the man on the screen, never leaving him.
"But I have already reported it to the police. Chen Wuye has already contacted the police this afternoon. The specific investigation results may take some time."
Bo Jinyan looked at her intently: "Send me a copy of the surveillance footage later."
Sang Ruo was stunned for a moment.
Could it be that he wants to help her investigate this matter?
Sang Ruo glanced at him, somewhat puzzled: "Mr. Bo, you're not planning to get involved in this matter, are you?"
“I have a feeling that the person behind this matter must be someone with considerable influence. I’m really not comfortable if I don’t get involved.”
Bo Jinyan's tone sounded indifferent, but the worry in his eyes was exceptionally evident.
"Mr. Bo, I've already called the police. Should we wait for them..."
Before she could finish speaking, the man in front of her interrupted her: "Don't worry, I won't ask you for anything in return. This time, I'm helping you willingly."
He will not be able to eat or sleep until he finds out who is behind this.
Because there's no guarantee that the other party won't do anything even more outrageous next...
Having said all that, Sang Ruo couldn't say anything more.
With Bo Jinyan's help, the chances of finding the real person might be much greater.
"Okay, then I'll thank you in advance."
Bo Jinyan smiled faintly and said, "It's getting late, you should go back and rest early."
Sang Ruo responded softly, "Okay."
As she opened the car door to get out, the man next to her grabbed her arm and said, "Wait a minute."
