Chapter 696 Beating Xu Yi
Bang--
Before he could finish speaking, Bo Jinyan punched him in the face: "Xu Yi! If you can't speak, shut up! Nobody thinks you're mute!"
How could he even say something like that! What does he care about family ties then?
Caught off guard, Xu Yi was knocked to the ground, looking disheveled. As he got up, he wiped the blood from his mouth and said, "Well done, Bo Jinyan, you'd even dare to hit your uncle for this woman?"
"Do you even respect me as your elder? And what I said wasn't true? You dared to marry her, but you can't handle all this gossip?"
Bo Jinyan seemed about to make another move, but was stopped by his cousin Xu Chen: "Alright, cousin, you've already punched my dad once, that's enough! Don't you understand that a gentleman uses words, not fists?"
We're all family, why are we fighting and arguing like this? What kind of behavior is that?
Is it really true that for a woman, my cousin would disregard even this basic family bond?
"A gentleman? He can even say such things, what kind of gentleman is he?!" Bo Jinyan couldn't help but retort, "Uncle, the only reason I'm still willing to call you uncle is for my mother's sake. If you don't want it anymore, you can leave anytime!"
"Our Bo family does not welcome people like you!"
He actually dared to say something like "I ended up in the old man's bed"! What kind of uncle is he? How could he possibly respect Xiao Ruo? How could he possibly respect his father's feelings?
Xu Yi watched as Bo Jinyan nearly jumped up and down over Sang Ruo and couldn't help but sneer: "Bo Jinyan, in terms of seniority, you're still my nephew. Even if you're telling him to leave, you have to consider your father's opinion, don't you think, Mr. Bo?"
Old Master Bo gave him a cold look, a look that was almost like being in an ice cellar, his eyes filled with coldness, and even his words were neither warm nor cold: "Alright, Yi, shut up. You didn't come here to argue, let's eat first."
"We can talk about it after we finish eating."
There's nothing a meal can't solve.
Bo Jinyan had lost his appetite and turned to leave, but Old Master Bo noticed his displeasure at a glance and advised, "Ayan, you come back here too. No matter what, he is your uncle and your elder. We can talk about it after you finish eating."
Bo Jinyan was stopped by his call and had no choice but to sit at the table and eat reluctantly.
Old Master Bo sat in the main seat, Xu Yi sat to his left, and his son Xu Chen sat to Xu Yi's right.
Sang Ruo sat next to Bo Jinyan, feeling extremely uncomfortable and unable to taste anything.
She had always thought that having his love and her grandfather's affection was enough, but today's family dinner made her realize that there were still many people in the Bo family who were unhappy about her remarriage.
Even Xu Yi, A Yan's own uncle, couldn't stand it, let alone others.
Bo Jinyan suppressed his temper and served food to Sang Ruo. Seeing that she wasn't eating much, he forced back his displeasure and asked her gently, "Xiao Ruo, why aren't you eating? Is the food not to your liking?"
"No, I quite like these dishes," Sang Ruo said with a forced smile, her face even looking somewhat pale.
She just didn't expect her uncle to target her like this.
From the very beginning, she was afraid of this day when she married Bo Jinyan, but when the day finally came, she found it so hard to accept.
Bo Jinyan could tell at a glance that Xu Yi's words had really hurt her, but he had no way to comfort her at the moment. He could only wait until the meal was finished before he could comfort her.
Upon hearing this, Xu Chen subconsciously glanced at Sang Ruo's expression and sighed, "Dad, don't talk about my cousin. After all, Aunt has passed away. No matter how dissatisfied you are, you can't bring her back to how she was before."
As Xu Yi's son, how could he not know what his father had been dissatisfied with?
But the dead cannot be brought back to life.
There's nothing we can do about it.
“Xiao Chen, you’re still young and don’t understand anything.” Xu Yi said, his gaze passing over Bo Jinyan and landing on Sang Ruo: “There are some people who need to be spoken to, otherwise they will never know that there are voices against them in this world.”
What a disgrace.
Why did Bo Jinyan have to marry his nephew's wife? It's just a laughing stock.
The Xu family, too, lost face as a result.
As soon as she finished speaking, Sang Ruo tightened her grip on the chopsticks for a moment, her knuckles turning slightly white: "Uncle, if you don't like me, you don't have to invite me. Why make me come and then endure this humiliation?"
Does he really feel good about deliberately humiliating her like this?
She really doesn't understand.
Her marriage with Bo Jinzhou was a betrayal of her sincere feelings by Bo Jinzhou, and it was Bo Jinzhou's own fault for not cherishing it. Why is everyone blaming her?
"Is this what you call humiliation? I haven't even said anything worse yet." Xu Yi stared at her intently, seemingly not intending to let her off the hook: "Sang Ruo, I was originally indifferent to you, but your mistake was that you married the last man you should have married."
“We don’t care who you marry, but you absolutely cannot marry Ayan.”
Ayan is the younger brother of the Jinzhou family, but he married her, his niece-in-law. How can the children call him that?
The generations are all messed up.
Snap—
Bo Jinyan slammed his chopsticks down right in front of Xu Yi: "Xu Yi, can't you eat properly? If you don't want to eat this meal, then get out of here! Nobody's forcing you to eat this meal!"
What do you mean by her marrying the man she should never have married?
Isn't this a blatant slap in the face? What's the difference between what he said and actually slapping him across the face?
And she even spoke ill of Xiao Ru in front of him. Did she really think he was dead? Did she not get angry at all?
"Ayan, I told you, I was just telling the truth." Compared to his fury, Xu Yi's reaction was surprisingly calm: "Who told you to give up a perfectly good engagement and marry a woman you shouldn't have married?"
engagement?
What engagement?
Sang Ruo was still immersed in his dissatisfaction with her, but when she heard that he was engaged, she was stunned: "Uncle, what do you mean by that? Ayan, he..."
Does he really have a marriage contract? If so, why would he still marry her?
“Ayan was supposed to be engaged to Wen Qingyi, but he broke that engagement to marry you.” Xu Yi coldly glanced at her: “Do you know how embarrassed I, the middleman who brought us together, have been?”
If it weren't for his insistence on marrying Sang Ruo, how could he have lost so much money to the Wen family?
Everything changed completely because of Sang Ruo's appearance!
