Chapter 172 Half of the Property
Her voice had barely faded when Chen Anni's anxious voice came through the phone: "Xiao Ruo, Linlin suddenly said she felt unwell in the middle of the night, she's had diarrhea and vomiting, and we don't know what's wrong. Your senior brother isn't back tonight either, so I had to call you..."
"Okay, I'll go back right away."
Sang Ruo quickly hung up the phone and left the restroom.
After quickly packing her things, she glanced at the man who was still fast asleep, then gently opened the door and went downstairs.
The next day, at noon.
Bo Jinyan was awakened by the arguing noises coming from downstairs. When he opened his eyes, he found that the surroundings were empty and he did not see Sang Ruo.
When did she leave?
Bo Jinyan quickly opened the surveillance system of the Bo family's old house. After taking a look, he was so angry that he instantly flew into a rage.
She slept with him and then ran away. This woman is really something!
The arguing downstairs continued, making his head ache even more.
After a quick wash, he went downstairs.
As I walked down the spiral staircase, I saw a familiar figure sitting in the living room.
It was Bo Jinzhou and Chen Fangyue arguing. From their few words, we could roughly understand the reason for their argument.
It was Old Master Bo who called him back, supposedly to discuss the division of property after his divorce from Sang Ruo.
Bo Jinzhou raised his eyes and looked towards the stairs. Upon seeing Bo Jinyan appear, he composed himself slightly and softly called out, "Uncle."
Bo Jinyan nodded indifferently, said nothing, and walked directly towards the dining table.
Just as they were arguing again, a cold voice suddenly came from the other end of the stairs: "How long do you plan to keep arguing?"
Bo Jinyan raised his eyes and glanced in the direction from which the sound came from.
His father came down...
The kitchen and dining area are open-plan, and from this angle, you can see everything in the living room.
He continued to lower his head, eating his breakfast absentmindedly, occasionally glancing up at the living room.
It's such a pity that Sang Ruo couldn't witness such a wonderful show in person.
"grandfather."
When Bo Jinzhou saw Old Master Bo come down, he lowered his voice considerably.
Chen Fangyue sat down on the sofa without saying a word.
The butler helped Mr. Bo to the sofa and then stood aside.
Old Master Bo held his cane and looked up at Bo Jinzhou in front of him: "Do you have any objections to my agreeing to the divorce? Haven't you always wanted a divorce? Now that I've agreed, what are you shouting about here?"
Seeing the displeasure on Old Master Bo's face, Bo Jinzhou finally gritted his teeth and blurted out, "I'm not making a fuss about the divorce, but about the division of property."
"I heard from my mother that after my divorce from Sang Ruo, you plan to give half of my assets to Sang Ruo. Is this true?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's gaze fell upon Old Master Bo.
Only Bo Jinyan, sitting at the dining table, kept his head down, eating his breakfast, his knife and fork never stopping, exuding a nonchalant aura.
But my ears were still listening to the argument in the living room.
The atmosphere in the living room suddenly plummeted to rock bottom.
"Shouldn't you give her the money?"
Bo Jinzhou's gaze was exceptionally cold, and his voice carried a strong hint of anger: "Grandpa, I really can't understand why you did this?"
"Why would I do this? Don't you have any idea? Why are you asking me?"
Old Master Bo's voice suddenly rose a notch, his eyes filled with ruthlessness.
"Although many of the Bo Group's businesses were created by you and my father, their market value has increased many times over after I took over. Grandpa, don't you think it's absurd to ask me to give her half of the money? What has she done for me that makes me want to give her half of my assets?"
Bo Jinzhou's voice was deep and his face was full of stubbornness.
"absurd!"
The old man's cane struck the ground heavily, making a dull sound.
The sudden sound made everyone present tense.
"Xiao Ruo has been with you for so many years and even gave birth to your son. She endured so much pain during childbirth. You not only don't understand her, but you also have entanglements with other women!"
"In the end, he even sent that woman, along with his own son, to prison! Do you know how much he suffered in prison? I only heard later that she was beaten for years and even almost died in prison."
"For these reasons alone, you should give him this money as payment for your past sins!"
Old Master Bo fixed his gaze on the man opposite him, his voice filled with intense annoyance.
Upon hearing this, Bo Jinzhou's brow furrowed slightly: "What did you say? She was beaten for years in prison? How is that possible?"
He clearly had someone take care of her, and even gave her a lot of money. How could she possibly be bullied? And almost lose her life because of it?
That's absolutely impossible...
"Why is it impossible? If you don't believe me, go and investigate for yourself!"
Old Master Bo suddenly raised his voice a notch, and in his anger, he picked up his cane again and pounded it on the floor.
The air pressure around me kept dropping.
At that moment, the man at the table gently put down his knife and fork and slowly stood up.
His aura was also very low.
He walked briskly towards the living room.
Seeing him approach, Chen Fangyue quickly tried to smooth things over: "Dad, let's discuss this matter in detail later! Be careful not to upset yourself. Sang Ruo said it's not suitable for you to get too angry right now..."
"I think your grandfather's approach was quite reasonable."
Before Chen Fangyue could finish speaking, she was interrupted by the man who approached her.
Chen Fangyue was momentarily speechless and suddenly didn't know how to respond.
"Uncle, why do you also think I should give this money?"
Bo Jinzhou's hands, which were placed at his sides, clenched involuntarily for a moment. He looked up and met the eyes of the man in front of him.
Bo Jinyan's tone was extremely cold: "You are so lucky to have married three women like these. But you personally sent her to prison. Consider this money as atonement for your past actions. It is not unreasonable."
"Uncle..."
A look of shock crossed Bo Jinzhou's eyes.
“And…” Bo Jinyan interrupted him before he could finish speaking: “Since Grandpa has already agreed to your divorce, then hurry up and sign the papers, don’t drag it out any longer.”
After hearing his words, Bo Jinzhou couldn't help but furrow his brows slightly.
Why do I always feel like my uncle is on Sang Ruo's side?
Was it just his imagination?
