Chapter 204 The more serious it is, the more elaborate it becomes
Sang Ruo remained silent, looking as if she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Chen Anni nudged her arm: "Say something! You're driving me crazy..."
"I feel you shouldn't be a journalist, you should be a psychologist."
Sang Ruo responded to her in a serious tone, and then got up from the sofa.
After hearing her words, Chen Anni's smile widened.
Watching Sang Ruo's departing figure, she smiled and asked, "Looks like I guessed right? You're amazing! You actually managed to subdue such a big shot so well. Do you want to teach me a few tricks? I want to fall in love too..."
Sang Ruo suddenly stopped walking and turned to look at Chen Anni at the other end of the sofa.
She curled her lips into a faint smile: "You don't need to use any tricks, a handsome guy like Chen Wuye will come to you on his own..."
"Don't talk nonsense, there's nothing between him and me!"
Chen Anni quickly walked up and headed towards the second floor.
"Then why are you blushing?"
"I'm not blushing at all! You've mistaken me for someone else."
Sang Ruo watched her fleeing figure, her smile growing even stronger.
The next day, in the morning.
When Sang Ruo arrived at the clinic, she saw several patients whispering to each other, but she didn't know what they were talking about.
But one thing is certain: they were talking about her.
She pretended to be picking up medicine and curiously moved a little closer.
Their conversation reached her ears.
"I heard that it's her illegitimate daughter, born to her and another man, and her ex-husband is unaware of it."
"No way? Such a respectable doctor, I never imagined he was doing something so shady behind the scenes!"
"That's right! The more serious they are, the more elaborate their methods become."
"I heard that the girl's father is still unknown."
...
The more Sang Ruo listened, the more she felt something was wrong.
The people they're talking about sound so much like her and Song Linlin.
Just as Sang Ruo was about to step forward, the patients at the door quickly left.
Business was slow today, which she found strange because it was the weekend, and based on past experience, the number of customers should have been more than double the usual amount. But today, the number was less than half of what it usually is.
It's really too strange.
After seeing off the last patient, Sang Ruo turned to Chen Wuye beside her and asked, "Did you hear what they were talking about? What exactly happened?"
Chen Wuye's expression darkened.
After a moment's pause, he replied softly, "I have indeed heard about it. When I arrived at the clinic early this morning, I heard a lot of negative news about you and Linlin."
Sang Ruo's brows furrowed slightly for a moment: "What's going on?"
Chen Wuye gritted his teeth and finally blurted out, "They say Linlin is actually your illegitimate daughter. You cheated on her several years ago and had a daughter with another man. And to this day, you don't even know who the child's father is..."
Upon hearing this, a mocking smile appeared on Sang Ruo's lips.
This is absolutely ridiculous!
Such absurd rumors can actually be spread...
Chen Wuye said with a serious expression, "Sister Xiaoruo, I know these are all rumors. I have tried to speak up for you and try to explain to them, but they just won't listen."
Sang Ruo saw a hint of helplessness on Chen Wuye's face.
She subconsciously reached out and patted his shoulder: "Okay! You don't need to take it to heart, and you don't need to explain to them. After all, the innocent are innocent. I don't care, so why should you?"
Chen Wuye looked at her with some concern: "But if we ignore these rumors, I'm afraid this matter will affect the clinic's business. If it really affects the clinic's business, then it will be a loss."
After hearing his words, Sang Ruo's face darkened to the extreme.
A familiar face suddenly appeared in his mind.
Liang Yuxin.
This time, the trick is exactly the same as the last time!
Did she instigate Bo Yukang to spread rumors about Song Linlin at school last time, and it didn't achieve the desired effect, so this time she directly targeted her?
As these thoughts surfaced in her mind, the chill on her lips suddenly intensified.
"Sister Xiaoruo, are you alright?"
The familiar voice interrupted her thoughts.
Sang Ruo looked up at the sound and saw Chen Wuye staring at her with a worried expression.
She smiled faintly and replied calmly, "I'm fine, don't worry about me. Go and get back to work!"
"good."
Sang Ruo strode towards the lounge, and after drinking a cup of tea, her mood gradually calmed down.
The phone that was on the table suddenly rang.
Looking down, she saw that it was Bo Jinzhou calling. After thinking for a moment, she finally hung up the phone.
To her utter surprise, the other party persisted and called her a second time.
Sang Ruo answered the phone anyway: "What exactly do you want?"
"I'm going back to the old house tonight. Grandpa said there's something he wants to ask us in person."
"What is it?"
A faint unease rose in Sang Ruo's heart.
Bo Jinzhou responded without hesitation, "I don't know what it is either. He just called and told us we had to go back, and specifically asked me to inform you."
Sang Ruo's hand gripping the phone tightened involuntarily for a moment.
The unease in my heart suddenly grew stronger.
"Okay, I understand. I'll go there after get off work."
"You don't need to drive; I'll pick you up myself."
Sang Ruo didn't respond to him again and decisively hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, I thought about many reasons why Old Master Bo wanted them to come home, but I still didn't know why...
In the evening, Bo Jinzhou did indeed come to pick her up personally, just as he had promised.
The two remained almost completely silent throughout the journey. Upon arriving at the Bo family's old residence, Sang Ruo expressionlessly opened the car door and got out.
He had only taken a couple of steps when a deep male voice came from behind him: "Let me give you a heads-up..."
Sang Ruo suddenly stopped in her tracks.
She quickly turned to look at Bo Jinzhou, asking incredulously, "Bo Jinzhou, are you lying to me?"
The man in front of her suddenly turned serious: "What did I lie to you about?"
Do you know why Grandpa called us home?
Her voice had barely faded when a subtle hint of tension flashed in Bo Jinzhou's eyes.
It was just a fleeting moment, but it was still captured by the observant Sang Ruo.
Bo Jinzhou curled his lips into a cold smile: "Yes! So what if I lied to you?"
