Chapter 147 Let him hide
"If you wanted to know so much, why did you suddenly stop asking?"
The man lowered his voice considerably, his gaze fixed intently on her.
Even though it was a dark night, she could still see the hint of anger in his eyes.
Is it because she didn't press the issue that he was unhappy?
She looked up at him, her voice tinged with coldness: "If you have no intention of telling me, what's the point of me pressing you? You can just make up any excuse to brush me off..."
"So, in your opinion, what are we going to buy?"
The man's hand, which was resting on her waist, suddenly squeezed her a little tighter.
She winced slightly in pain and pounded his chest with her fist: "Let me go right now!"
Just then, footsteps suddenly came from not far away, and her heart jumped into her throat.
The footsteps sounded so familiar, so much like Bo Jinzhou's...
"Since you're so curious, I'll tell you."
When Bo Jinyan saw her turn her head to look to the side, he quickly reached out his well-defined hand, grabbed her chin, and forced her face back.
Sang Ruo was forced to raise her eyes and meet his gaze.
"Jiayu and the child's mother are friends. Because of work, she couldn't come to the child's first birthday party, so she picked out a pair of bracelets for him and specially asked me to deliver them."
"She wants to buy things to give to others, why do you want to go with her?"
"Because we gave the same gift, she gave a silver bracelet and I gave a gold bracelet."
The man's voice was soft, and his face showed little emotion.
Sang Ruo nodded gently.
So, the truth is actually like this...
She initially thought they were going to buy wedding rings, but it turned out they were going to buy bracelets for their child.
Just then, the footsteps suddenly grew closer and closer.
"Sang Ruo? Is that you there? Who are you with?"
Just then, a familiar voice suddenly rang out.
When Sang Ruo heard this voice, her back stiffened for a moment.
It really is him!
Sang Ruo looked up at the man in front of her: "Bo Jinyan, can you go hide under the big tree for a while?"
"We haven't done anything shameful, so why are we hiding?"
The man frowned slightly, a look of doubt appearing in his eyes.
For some reason, she just didn't want Bo Jinzhou to see them together here.
"Go hide, hurry up!"
Sang Ruo subconsciously pried his hands off her waist and then quickly pushed him toward the tree.
Behind the grape trellis, there is a large tree that can completely hide an adult man; hiding there is the most suitable option.
Despite his reluctance, Bo Jinyan strode forward and headed in that direction.
When Bo Jinzhou arrived at the grape trellis, he only saw Sang Ruo standing there, seemingly doing nothing. She was facing the grape trellis and looked somewhat nervous.
"what are you doing here?"
"I just came out for a walk to clear my head." Sang Ruo quickly raised her eyes, looking at him indifferently: "Mr. Bo, you wouldn't be meddling in something like this, would you?"
"But I clearly saw you talking to someone over there just now..."
He raised his eyes and quickly looked around, as if searching for someone.
Just as his gaze shifted behind the big tree, Sang Ruo quickly moved aside and blocked his way.
She looked at him warily: "I came out alone and didn't talk to anyone. You might have seen wrong."
"Sang Ruo, you're not having a secret rendezvous with someone here, are you?"
The man suddenly moved closer to her step by step, and she was forced to retreat step by step.
Unbeknownst to them, they were forced to retreat to the side of that big tree.
He leaned against a large tree, looking at her with a serious expression: "My informant has been telling me that you've been seen with my uncle a lot lately. Could that person just now have been him?"
Sang Ruo was afraid that if he continued to dwell on this topic, he would anger the man behind the big tree.
She raised her cold eyes, her expression serious, and said, "What? Haven't you caused enough trouble tonight? Do you want to keep causing trouble?"
As the man spoke of what had happened that evening, his expression gradually darkened.
"Why aren't you with your sweetheart at a time like this? What are you doing here?"
Sang Ruo's lips curled into a cold smile, her voice filled with intense anger.
“I get angry just thinking about this. You drove her away, so why would she stay?” Bo Jinzhou suddenly grabbed her wrist and led her toward the back door. “We came together, so we should go back together.”
Sang Ruo subconsciously turned her head and looked towards the other side of the big tree.
Bo Jinyan never showed his face from beginning to end.
After the footsteps faded into the distance, Bo Jinyan emerged from under the big tree. Looking up, he saw the two of them entering the banquet together.
His gaze remained fixed on Bo Jinzhou's hands.
He took out a cigarette and lit it.
Smoke swirled around his strikingly handsome face, making his eyes appear exceptionally gloomy.
A sense of irritability suddenly welled up in my heart and lingered for a long time.
When Sang Ruo returned to the banquet, she learned that the second half of the event had already begun. The original dining tables had long been moved and replaced by rows of snacks and drinks.
Bo Jinzhou hadn't left yet, so she couldn't leave either, and could only linger in a corner of the party.
After an unknown amount of time, I raised my eyes again and unintentionally met a pair of dark eyes.
It was Bo Jinyan.
He was sitting in the center of the party, surrounded by several dignitaries who seemed to be chatting.
The man glanced at her intentionally or unintentionally, and even from a distance, one could still see the anger in his eyes.
It seems that what had just made him hide had thoroughly enraged him.
Sang Ruo instinctively looked away, intending to go to the restroom, when her phone suddenly rang in her pocket.
She glanced down and saw it was a WeChat message from Bo Jinyan.
[Waiting for you at the door.]
Four simple words, yet they made her hand holding the phone tremble slightly.
When I looked up again toward the center of the party, I found that the figure was already gone.
She instinctively looked around before finally fixing her gaze on Bo Jinzhou.
He was talking to two men at the moment, presumably about business, and they were very engrossed in their conversation.
Even if she leaves, he probably won't notice.
Sang Ruo quickly put her phone into her handbag and then walked briskly towards the front door.
When I arrived at the door, I found a familiar figure already sitting in the Maybach.
