"Bo Lengqing! I have something to tell you! "
Bo Lengqing looked at me coldly. "I'm in a meeting right now."
"These things are very important to me …"
"I'm in a meeting!"
The ice-cold words that were coming out from those heartless and thin lips splashed out word by word. The surroundings instantly became dead silent.
I knew that my current actions were untimely, and after calming down, I was even more afraid that the situation would turn around. Just as I was about to follow Black Hawk out, a mocking voice sounded behind me.
"I really didn't expect that our second young master Bo would have so many emotions. For a private matter to be brought up on stage, as expected of the successor that the old gramps has his eyes on, I'm truly impressed!"
I turned my head around, and saw a man with one leg crossed over his opposite of Bo Lengqing. His facial features were somewhat similar to Bo Lengqing's, but compared to the cold and detached atmosphere that Bo Lengqing emitted, his was more of a darkness that came from the inside.
At the same time, the man was looking at me with an inexplicable look that made me uncomfortable.
"Sorry, I was too rash. I'll go out first."
I ran behind Black Hawk. Black Hawk didn't blame me for my rudeness, but rather led me to the resting lounge to pour me a cup of hot tea to warm my body.
About half an hour later, familiar footsteps came from outside.
"From tomorrow onwards, you don't have to come back to the company."
These were the first words Bo Lengqing said when he entered.
I bit my lower lip. I knew it was his fault.
"I got it …"
"You said earlier that you have something to ask of me?" He changed the topic of his words and I nodded my head with all my might as though I had seen the light of hope.
"Tell me about it." He waved his hand, and the Black Hawk left tactfully.
"My mother is in Su Jianguo's hands now. I want to bring her to my side, is that okay?"
When he mentioned his mother, Bo Lengqing's expression became sinister, and the surrounding pressure became lower and lower.
"So you also know what kinship is."
His words were extremely sarcastic, but I could not understand what he was saying.
"I'm begging you, this is the only thing I'm willing to do. As long as you help me bring my mom back, I'm willing to do anything!" I went over to him and begged.
"Why should I help you?" His lips curled into a sneer.
I don't know if I saw wrongly, but a glint of water suddenly appeared in Bo Lengqing's eyes.
"I …"
Yeah, why should he help me?
Did I climb into his bed and be his mistress for two years before he was cured? Based on what I've been through, day and night? Or am I betting that he has my place in his heart?
How could he fall in love with a dirty, bad woman like me after just one night of gentleness?
How laughable!
"Su Cha, do you have any guilt or not?"
Bo Lengqing said as he reached out his hand to my left chest.
Yes, of course I do.
It's just that I can't say.
I know that Bo Lengqing is extremely possessive and he won't tolerate his wife having another man in her heart, even if that person has already been dead for a long time, even if I am his wife in name.
"I have a clear conscience."
I avoided his eyes as I said that, but he laughed.
"Then tell me, who is Mu Chen?"
I felt a stifling sensation in my heart. When I raised my head to meet his eyes, I saw that they were filled with endless pain.
He still knew.
Mu Chen, my Mu Chen.
Tears trickled down uncontrollably, and he held out his hand to me as if to ask me or himself.
"Why are you crying? You liked him? Love him? "
I can't answer.
"I ask you, do you love him?"
He lifted my face, and there was a warm look in his eyes.
Yes, I love him, I love him very much, the only person I want to marry in my life is him!
"I didn't …" However, when it reached his mouth, he swallowed it down.
I dare not admit it, I am not fit to admit it.
His hands suddenly relaxed, and the fluctuating expression on his face completely disappeared. He returned to that cold and emotionless expression, as if the endless grief and pain from earlier belonged to someone else.
"Do you love me?" His voice was ethereal, but it drifted into my ear.
I started, then bit my lower lip.
If I had to sell my feelings to get my mother back, that was the only way I could do it.
Mu Chen, if you were alive, you wouldn't blame me, right?
I took a deep breath and nodded.
Bo Lengqing's eyes were once again filled with complex emotions. Then, he suddenly laughed coldly.
"You, Su Cha, are truly capable. If I had nothing, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to exchange it for your nod."
His tone was sad, but I didn't understand.
How could someone like him, who had everything, feel the same way about someone like me, who could lose everything at any moment?
I can't keep anything, not even my own feelings.
"Go back."
"My mom …"
"I'll think of something."
After receiving his assurance, I immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
When the Black Hawk saw me to the elevator door, I walked in relieved. As the door closed, an unfriendly voice suddenly sounded from beside me.
"I really didn't expect him to say this."
I turned my head around, and saw that the man I saw in Bo Lengqing's conference room not too far away from me was looking at me, looking at me like a man looking at a woman.
The look in his eyes made me feel uneasy. I consciously moved to the other side, pulling away from him.
I didn't expect him to come straight in my direction and pin me against the wall of the elevator on the other side.
"What are you doing!"
The proximity of the male hormones made me feel creepy and alert.
"Seems like Bo Lengqing didn't tell you, he still has a big brother." The man's face revealed a rogue smile: "My name is Bo Xiao". As he said that, he leaned close to my ear and blew lightly in the hot air. "It's nice to meet you."
The elevator door opened at that moment, and Bo Xiao wiped my earlobe with his tongue.
As for me, I was disgusted by his actions for a long time.
When I got home, I washed the place close to him with water many times.
That man was the same as Bo Lengqing, who was emitting an extremely dangerous aura from head to toe, like a cobra. Once the prey was targeted by him, there was no hope of him escaping unscathed.
I don't know what kind of deal Bo Lengqing made with Su Jianguo, but in short, my mother was brought out completely unharmed. Bo Lengqing placed her in a sanatorium not far from the villa.
Just the thought of her running out of time made me burst into tears.
Her condition was much better than before, but she kept on telling me not to blame Su Jianguo, and he was just muddle-headed for a moment.
I don't want to talk about that cold-blooded and heartless man, he isn't worthy to be my father at all!
I know that my mother still has feelings for him. Otherwise, how could she willingly return with him and use her as a weapon to threaten me?
But I don't blame her.
She had done everything she could for me. She was the only person in the world who truly treated me well.
On this day, Bo Lengqing returned with an exquisite box. He passed the box to me, and when I opened it, I saw that it was a beautiful qipao with a very classical flavour.
It was the first time he had bought clothes for me.
I don't know if it was my imagination, but since the last time I said I loved him, his attitude towards me seemed to have improved a lot.
But he has been moody, and I dare not speculate.
"This is also for you."
He casually tossed over a box. Inside was a rare dark blue gem necklace that was shaped like the Heart of the Seas.
It was the gift I had wanted most in my girlhood, and I wanted the unswerving love of the Titanic, even if it meant death.
At that time, Mu Chen gave me a ring that was engraved with our names as a necklace, telling me that whatever I wanted, he would help me achieve it in the future.
And now, I do have the Heart of the Sea, but he will never come back.
"What are you thinking?"
My thoughts were interrupted by him. I smiled as I accepted the gem. I raised my head and sincerely looked into his eyes. "Thank you. I really like it."
He turned his head away a little uncomfortably: "Don't think too much. In three days, this old house will host a banquet for us... "You better pack well, don't embarrass me."
