“There’s no hurry for that,” Bo Jingyan said before he turned to Su Ruanruan. “What’s wrong?”

Su Ruanruan choked on her food. She shook her head as she replied, “Nothing.”

Bo Jingyan smiled and spoke to his father again.

Bo Mingyuan said in a low voice, “We can’t let go of such a talent. Jingyan, you have to treat that person well.”

Bo Jingyan smiled. He had indeed treated her well. His arms were still sore from last night.

Bo Mingyuan seemed to be more invested in the topic now. He looked up and saw his second son coming downstairs.

“Ziqi,” Bo Mingyuan called out to him happily. “Come and have a seat.”

His gaze shifted to the seat beside Su Ruanruan, his intentions clear. However, Bo Ziqi sat down opposite him. He frowned as soon as he sat down.

Bo Jingyan and Su Ruanruan were seated side by side, and the scene was surprisingly harmonious. For some reason, that scene stung Bo Ziqi’s eyes.

The corners of his mouth curled up in a mocking smile. “Big Brother spent the night at home?”

The atmosphere instantly tensed up.

Bo Jingyan leaned back and glanced at his half-brother. The brothers had always been at odds because of their elders.

After a while, Bo Jingyan asked calmly, “Why? Can’t I come back to stay?”

Bo Ziqi glanced at Su Ruanruan again. “I heard from Jingyuan that you’ve been spending a lot of time at home recently. I’m just curious.”

Bo Jingyan looked at his younger half-sister. “Jingyuan, did you say that?”

The young girl had always been afraid of her eldest brother. Now that she was being questioned, she could not say anything.

But in her heart, she couldn’t help but hate Su Ruanruan again. ‘It’s all her fault. Otherwise, Big Brother wouldn’t be so fierce to me!’

Bo Jingyan retracted his gaze and chuckled. “Ziqi, are you worried about me?”

He played with his cup and said casually, “It seems like you’ll only be at ease after we have a wedding in the family.”

Bo Ziqi was clearly provoked by this move. He glanced coldly at Su Ruanruan and said, “Big Brother, you’re thinking too much.”

“Really?” Bo Jingyan smiled charmingly. “I thought you liked Ruanruan very much.”

He turned his head and looked at Su Ruanruan gently. “Ruanruan is quite cute.”

The young lady in question bit her lip.

Bo Jingyan chuckled once again.

He knew Bo Ziqi’s temper very well. The more Bo Jingyan provoked his brother, the more disgusted the latter would be.

Bo Jingyan knew how good Su Ruanruan was. There was no guarantee that Bo Ziqi would find out about that one day.

Bo Ziqi was disgusted by how close he was to Su Ruanruan. He stood up with a thud, no longer in the mood for breakfast.

Bo Mingyuan looked at his eldest son, his gaze unreadable.

His sons did not share a good relationship, but Jingyan had rarely scolded Ziqi like this. He then looked at Su Ruanruan.

‘That can’t be! Jingyan’s ten years older than Ruanruan!’

Bo Jingyuan snorted. “Now that Second Brother is gone, who will send me to school?”

Madam Bo said unhappily, “Just let the chauffeur send you. Your second brother isn’t feeling well.”

“Why’s he meeting Sister Qionglin then?” Bo Jingyuan said, “I know they’re always at the hotel.”

These words were meant for Su Ruanruan to hear.

‘Hmph, Second Brother will never like you! Second Brother likes long legs.’

She then added, “Mom, Sister Qionglin attended Sister Shi’s event a while ago and won the runner-up position in our area.”

Madam Bo was very pleased. “Your Sister Qionglin is very outstanding.”

Then, she glanced at Bo Mingyuan. Of course, the latter understood what his wife was thinking.

Concerned about Su Ruanruan’s mood, he chuckled. “Our Ruanruan is also very outstanding! She knows how to treat illnesses, and her drawing skills should be pretty good too.”

Madam Bo let out a faint smile.

Bo Jingyuan rolled her eyes. “In a few days, our school will be hosting a charity sale. Dad, Mom, you must come and support us.”

In other words, she expected her parents to support her by throwing their money away!
