Chapter 853 Adding insult to injury
"Cousin, even if Gong Lian did it, are you really completely unaware?" Xu Chen asked doubtfully, "Is there really nothing between you, your sister-in-law, and Nan Chu?"
Don't think he doesn't know anything; he's seen Nan Chu sneaking off to see them several times.
Even though Bo Jinyan is his cousin, in normal kinship and social interactions, who visits each other as frequently as she does?
This is completely abnormal!
He didn't believe that there was nothing between Nan Chu and her cousin and his wife; there must be something between them that he didn't know about.
maybe……
Every time someone plots against him behind the scenes, it's Nan Chu and them!
Upon hearing this, Bo Jinyan narrowed his eyes, his tone carrying a hint of danger: "What do you mean? Are you doubting me?"
Even though he's always there for me, so what?
If he hadn't repeatedly helped Wen Qingyi and ruined his plans, why would he have targeted him like this?
The root of the problem lies with him!
"How could I dare to doubt you, cousin? I was just raising a reasonable question." Seeing that he did not deny it, Xu Chen looked at him with complicated emotions: "Cousin, although our two families have always been at odds, we grew up together since childhood, and our relationship is comparable to that of blood brothers. Why would you scheme against me like this?"
What benefit does he gain from scheming against him like this?
Isn't he afraid that Old Master Bo will be furious if he finds out?
Bo Jinyan frowned, his voice tinged with impatience: "Go find whoever plotted against you, don't come looking for me. I didn't plot against you! Besides, I just told you clearly that it was Gong Lian who leaked this information to Nan Chu. Why don't you go find him?"
What's the point of questioning him here?
"I'll naturally go find Gong Lian. I'm asking you now, cousin." Xu Chen paused, then asked again, "Cousin, I'll ask you one last time, is there really nothing between you and Nan Chu?"
Nan Chu has targeted Wen Qingyi so many times, and with such precision. He doesn't believe that his cousin and cousin-in-law weren't involved in pushing things along.
He completely destroyed Nan Chu's feelings for him!
He hasn't settled this score with him yet!
Bo Jinyan remained noncommittal, his voice as firm as ever: "No."
No matter how many times he asked, his answer remained the same and never changed.
Their cooperation agreement with Nan Chu must never be known to Xu Chen. Even though he has begun to suspect something, on the surface, he still maintains the same stance: if he says no, then no.
“Fine, since you insist, what if I find out anything…” Xu Chen paused for a moment, his gaze suddenly sharpening, becoming as piercing and cold as a knife: “Then don’t blame me, your cousin, for turning my back on you.”
After leaving those words, Xu Chen turned and left.
Watching his departing figure, Sang Ruo asked with some concern, "Ayan, what happened? How did Xu Chen find out about our cooperation agreement with Nan Chu?"
He seemed to have only doubts, but his tone carried a certain certainty, as if he had already concluded that there was a collaboration between them.
If he discovers anything, then all their previous plans will be ruined!
This is not a good thing.
“I guess he suspects there’s something going on between Nan Chu and Gong Lian. It could have far-reaching consequences.” Bo Jinyan didn’t expect him to start suspecting things so quickly. “But we absolutely cannot tell Nan Chu about our cooperation. Otherwise, given his temper, he could definitely ruin our plans.”
His plans had been thwarted by Xu Chen several times before, and he absolutely could not repeat the same mistake this time.
Sang Ruo felt the same way: "You're right, we absolutely can't let him know about our cooperation with Nan Chu. But, you leaked Gong Lian's information, aren't you afraid that if Gong Lian finds out, he'll target you again?"
Gong Lian and he were originally mortal enemies, but it was because of her that things were eased. Will they go back to the old irreconcilable situation because of Xu Chen?
If it really comes to that, another bloody storm is likely to ensue.
"So what if he finds out?" Bo Jinyan was not afraid of him at all: "He was capable of doing something like this, so he must have been prepared for Xu Chen to find out."
That's why he revealed to Xu Chen that this was Gong Lian's doing.
Adding to what happened at last night's wedding, several things combined are bound to lead to a fight between them.
Gong Lian had done so many things to threaten him in the past, so this time, he shouldn't be blamed for kicking him when he's down.
Hearing this, Sang Ruo was still a little unsure: "It's not that I'm afraid of him, it's that I'm afraid he and Xu Chen will team up against you!"
Now that Xu Chen has fallen out with A Yan, if Gong Lian finds out that A Yan betrayed him, he only needs to use some tricks to win Xu Chen over and make him an ally.
After all, the enemy of my enemy is my natural ally.
If Xu Chen and Gong Lian cooperate, then the two of them will definitely not let A Yan off the hook.
“Xiao Ruo, I did this for you.” Bo Jinyan knew her worries: “For you, I’m not afraid.”
For her, he could overcome any difficulty.
Sang Ruo felt she owed him so much: "Ayan, you're making me feel so guilty. I feel so useless, I can't help you at all, and I only cause you trouble..."
Thinking of this, she felt a little guilty, and even her usually bright voice couldn't help but become low.
“Xiao Ruo, I’m willing to do anything for you. It’s my own choice, so you don’t need to feel guilty.” Bo Jinyan raised his hand and gently stroked her fair and delicate face, his eyes full of tenderness. “Besides, we’re husband and wife. Husband and wife should share joys and sorrows. You’ve suffered so much for me, so it’s only right that I do all this.”
Only they know how difficult it was for them to get to where they are today.
Having finally entered into marriage, how could he just stand by and watch her suffer?
Sang Ruo lowered his hand, reached out, and buried her head in his chest, her voice muffled: "Ayan, meeting you is the greatest blessing of my life."
Her previous marriage had caused her immense suffering in relationships, and she thought she would never believe in love again.
If it weren't for Ayan's appearance, she would probably still be single and never get married.
"So you shouldn't think about other men. You are my wife, Bo Jinyan's wife. You can only think about me." Bo Jinyan's voice was tinged with possessiveness and a hint of bitterness: "You don't need to care about Gong Lian's affairs."
He only needs her to care about him.
