Chapter 119 Affectionate Terms of Address
If you count on your fingers, quite a few thoughts have passed. Fang Gan has practically watched her grow up and has always treated her like a younger sister.
Every time I look at her, it's like looking at a child, with extreme doting eyes.
"Come on, let's go back and I'll show you the jade. Then we'll have dinner together tonight. There's a new food street that just opened nearby; I think you'll like it..."
Fu Gan reached out and stroked his head, his expression extremely gentle.
Sang Ruo nodded subconsciously: "Okay, I'll listen to whatever you say, brother."
Fu Gan's house is still the same villa that his grandfather used to live in in Jiangzhou.
Linshan Xiaoyuan.
The four large characters on the plaque at the entrance are still as familiar as ever.
"The bedroom next to mine has been prepared for you. You can stay there. There's a terrace there, and the weather is so nice today, you might even be able to see the stars tonight."
Fang Gan's words instantly pulled Sang Ruo's thoughts back to the past.
Scenes from the past suddenly flooded my mind, and I suddenly thought of my grandfather, my nose tingling with tears.
Fang Gan seemed to notice that something was wrong with her, and subconsciously reached out to stroke her head again.
"Alright, let's not think about the past anymore, let's go inside!"
Sang Ruo nodded slightly and followed her inside.
However, they had no idea that their every move had been clearly recorded by a mobile phone not far away.
After looking at the jade, Sang Ruo couldn't help but smile: "It's exactly what I wanted. I knew you had it here."
Fang Gan leaned against the table, glancing at her curiously: "What are you going to use this jade to repair? And why did you travel all this way to find me? Is it from Bojin Prefecture?"
Upon hearing the name Bo Jinzhou, Sang Ruo subconsciously shook her head.
After a moment of calm, she replied softly, "Bo Jinzhou and I are already going through the divorce proceedings."
Fang Gan knew when Sang Ruo was imprisoned. He tried every means possible, but he couldn't get her released. In fact, he hasn't been able to see her even once in all these years.
“I know you’ve been framed, so I fully support your decision to divorce me…”
Fang Gan's lips curved into a smile, which deepened.
But looking into her eyes, there was a hint of heartache.
"Thank you, brother."
"No need to be so polite, we're all family." Fang Gan smiled faintly, "I'll cook lunch for you at home, and I'll take you to the food street for dinner."
"Okay." Sang Ruo nodded gently: "I haven't had your cooking in so long."
"Then I'll make all your favorite dishes for lunch today."
...
It was nearly evening when Bo Jinyan finished his work for the day.
The Maybach stopped in front of a high-end hotel in Jiangzhou. As soon as he got out of the car, Zhang Ye called out to him, "Mr. Bo, Miss Sang has sent a message."
The man's steps into the hotel lobby suddenly stopped.
He turned around and looked behind him, asking curiously, "Who did she go to see?"
Zhang Ye raised his gaze, his eyes slightly evasive as he looked at the man: "A man..."
Bo Jinyan's expression suddenly darkened, and he looked at him with disbelief: "A man?"
"There are also photos, would you like to take a look?"
Zhang Ye's voice carried a hint of probing.
"Give me!"
Bo Jinyan fixed his gaze on his phone, his eyes turning extremely cold.
The moment he saw the photo, his hand holding the phone clenched uncontrollably.
In the photo, a man dressed in traditional Chinese style is gently stroking Sang Ruo's head with an extremely tender expression.
This man was exceptionally handsome and had a great physique; he was even comparable to him in some ways.
So, the important thing she said she was going to Jiangzhou to meet a man?
There wasn't just one photo, but many.
They embraced at the entrance of the high-speed rail station; the man reached out and stroked her head. The two stood together at the entrance of the villa...
There are too many to count.
They look exactly like a young couple.
Who is this man?
Bo Jinyan glared at Zhang Ye with a gloomy expression, his voice much lowered.
"We don't know the other person's identity yet, but our informants report that their relationship seems unusual, because they address each other very intimately. Miss Sang calls him 'sworn brother,' while he calls Miss Sang..."
Zhang Ye was a little embarrassed to say it out loud.
Bo Jinyan's upturned eyes revealed a chilling aura.
The man raised his voice an octave: "Speak!"
Zhang Ye gritted his teeth and blurted out, "Ruo Ruo..."
What if?
The man's hands, placed at his sides, clenched uncontrollably.
Normally, when the male doctor at the clinic calls her "Sister Xiaoruo," she feels that's already quite affectionate...
"They seem to have gone to a nearby food street, probably to eat something."
"Drive the car back, we'll head to this food street right away."
The man spoke without the slightest hesitation.
After they had sex, he asked her to be with him, but she hesitated and never gave him a clear answer.
So you had someone else on the side?
As darkness gradually fell, the early autumn evening breeze swept in, ruffling the ends of Sang Ruo's long hair.
After parking the car at the entrance of the food street, he immediately spotted the two figures at the entrance.
From Bo Jinyan's perspective, she was unbelievably beautiful.
Sang Ruo was holding a box of pastries, chatting with Fang Gan at the door, and couldn't stop smiling.
Just then, someone in the shadows began to approach Sang Ruo's side.
The man was wearing a black hat and mask, and the military-grade knife hidden in his phone had a sharp corner peeking out, which Bo Jinyan spotted at a glance.
The man's gaze settled on Sang Ruo's abdomen.
Sang Ruo was chatting with that "sworn brother" and didn't notice this detail at all.
Zhang Ye seemed to have seen this scene as well. When he turned around to look behind him, the back door of the car had already been opened by Bo Jinyan.
The man ran towards Sang Ruo's direction...
At that moment, Sang Ruo, who was completely unaware of what was happening, only sensed that someone was rushing towards her.
Before she could even react, her wrist was grabbed from the side.
Then I was pulled into a familiar embrace.
It looked just like Bo Jinyan's embrace.
In particular, the faint, cool fragrance emanating from him instantly filled her nostrils.
Just then, a man in black wearing a black hat was suddenly kicked hard by Zhang Ye.
The man collapsed to the ground in an instant.
Clang—
The knife fell to the ground with a piercing sound.
Sang Ruo stared at the scene in disbelief, then turned to look at the man beside her.
Bo Jinyan held her wrist with one hand and placed the other hand on her waist, hugging her very tightly.
He seemed afraid that she might slip away from him if he wasn't careful.
The man looked down at her without saying a word.
Shock continued to well up in Sang Ruo's eyes: "Bo Jinyan, what are you doing here?"
Before Bo Jinyan could even respond, Fang Gan spoke first: "Ruo Ruo, are you alright?"
