23 -23 Before?
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Zhuang Cai Nan seemed to recover quickly, even though her appearance was still haggard, her demeanor had obviously returned to that of a calm, elite professional.
“Let’s go,” Zhuang Cai Nan returned the phone to Assistant Qiu.
Assistant Qiu took it and nodded at Su Lu, “Then we won’t disturb your meal, Miss Su.”
“Take care,” Su Lu nodded back.
After they left, the awkwardness did not dissipate, as the observers were still present on site, having witnessed the entire ordeal.
The waiter stood by, head lowered, having tried his best to minimize his presence.
But it was still somewhat awkward for him; he lifted his head, wanting to smooth things over.
As soon as he looked up, he saw a man walking up from behind her.
Despite wearing a bathrobe with slightly wet hair, he still looked extremely handsome.
He must be the leading man in this earlier drama who hadn’t shown his face.
Just from his appearance alone, it was undeniable that he had the charm to drive two women crazy.
Bo Jingshen walked up, wrapped his arm around Su Lu’s shoulders, “What are you staring at?
Not having breakfast?”
He seemed entirely unaware or unfazed by the earlier drama at the door.
But from the appearance of Assistant Qiu, it was clear that Bo Jingshen knew everything.
How could he not?
The commotion outside was so big, but he truly didn’t plan to step out and take a look.
The waiter felt relieved, exhaled a breath, pushed the dining cart in, set the plates on the table, and quickly left after receiving a generous tip from Bo Jingshen.
The food was tasty, but Su Lu ate absentmindedly.
Being the other woman…this feeling was really unbearable.
Her mind was still occupied with Zhuang Cai Nan’s earlier words and demeanor.
Bo Jingshen sat across from her, eating and watching stocks.
He glanced up slightly at her, “Not tasty?”
“Huh?
No, it’s good.”
Su Lu forked a piece of egg into her mouth, but it tasted like wax.
Su Lu took a deep breath, “Zhuang Cai Nan, she…”
“What, jealous?” Bo Jingshen raised an eyebrow.
Su Lu opened her mouth, “I…what position do I have.”
Bo Jingshen pulled a corner of his mouth, “Yeah, what position do you have.”
Then he stood up, leaned over the table, and kissed her lips.
Without any disdain, he pulled her half-eaten breakfast over and started eating naturally.
Bo Jingshen, “Don’t force yourself if you don’t want to eat, I’ll take you out for something else at noon.”
After breakfast, Bo Jingshen went back to his room for a conference call.
Su Lu also had time to handle some work, with a cup of warm water beside her and a box of medicine just delivered.
Su Lu stared at the medicine box for a moment, then squeezed out the only white pill inside and swallowed it with water.
From the phone on the table came Cheng Youran’s sigh, “Sigh, it’s better to take those short-term contraceptives than these urgent after-morning pills.
They’re less harmful.”
“I don’t take them all the time,” Su Lu said after swallowing the pill.
“What is going on between you and Bo Jingshen…” Cheng Youran’s voice, not hard to guess, must have a frowning expression, “What is this?”
Su Lu, “I don’t know.”
Cheng Youran, “Just…fooling around?”
Her words were somewhat sharp, and Su Lu smiled helplessly, “I guess?”
“You agree?
Su Lu, where’s your self-respect?!”
“In front of him, I can’t really summon my self-respect,” Su Lu said with a laugh, a bit of self-mockery, which made Cheng Youran feel heartbroken.
Cheng Youran, “You’re going to drive me crazy…”
Su Lu wanted to say something more, but then Su Yukan’s call came in.
After thinking for a bit, Su Lu decided to answer, so she hung up Cheng Youran’s call.
As soon as she picked up, she heard her stepmother Zhu Xinyan talking to Su Yukan, “Jiaojiao went there all the way, get her some introductions!
Second Young Master Jiang and President Bo are both in Hai City!
What a great opportunity!
Old Su, did you hear me?”
“Got it, got it…hmm?
Connected.” While talking with Zhu Xinyan, Su Yukan’s voice was helpless and gentle, but when speaking to Su Lu, it turned stern and harsh.
“What happened to you?
I asked you to develop good relations with President Liu!
Build rapport!
And instead, you offended him?!”

Su Lu chuckled, “How can you say I offended him?
I attended the dinner President Liu invited me to, and I drank the wine he asked me to.”
“Exactly,” Su Yukan asked, “When did you become so close with President Bo?”
He didn’t wait for Su Lu to answer; in fact, he didn’t need her to answer.
He continued on his own, “Jiaojiao is coming to Hai City soon, look after her.
And now that Second Young Master Jiang and President Bo are also in Hai City, right?
You and President Bo have a decent relationship, help Jiaojiao get introduced.”
Su Lu was fed up, she couldn’t hold it anymore, “Since you’re so capable and well-connected, you introduce her yourself.
I have things to do, goodbye.”
Zhu Xinyan’s dissatisfied voice called out, “Su Lu!
What’s with your attitude?!”
Su Lu had already hung up the phone and then heard the noisy commotion outside.
So lively, it could only be Jiang Li.
Seeing Bo Jingshen with that well-satisfied wolf-like look, Jiang Li felt it was an eyesore.
He covered his eyes with his hand, swearing.
He already heard about last night’s events from Cheng Dongyu.
Jiang Li couldn’t be more shocked.
Ever since Bo Jingshen got tangled up with Su Lu, everything had been inexplicable.
Jiang Li had known him for five years and never thought he would be a hero saving a beauty and getting injured for love.
Getting angry for a woman was even more out of the question.
This Su Lu…was really something.
“Booked?” Bo Jingshen was already dressed, simple shirt and casual pants, but still looking great.
“Yes, booked,” Jiang Li nodded, “Didn’t you say yesterday that all those foods you couldn’t eat?”
“Taking Su Lu,” Bo Jingshen said plainly, “She likes those foods.”
Su Lu heard this just as she opened the door.
She paused, but it seemed like her previously bad mood due to Su Yukan’s call was instantly alleviated.
Bo Jingshen looked up at her, “King crab, want it?
Never took you to have it before.”
Su Lu nodded, “Yes.”
When they were dating before, Bo Jingshen didn’t have much money.
Even in a Coastal City like Hai City, king crab was very expensive.
Bo Jingshen’s words greatly piqued Jiang Li’s curiosity.
“Huh?
Before?
Before?
What before?
You knew each other before?”
Jiang Li had always wondered why Bo Jingshen was different towards Su Lu, but never knew why.
Now he finally found a clue, and his eyes lit up with curiosity!
His voice even raised a few pitches.
“Stop babbling, let’s go,” Bo Jingshen gave Jiang Li a slap on the back of his head.
“Ah, you jerk,” Jiang Li moved next to Su Lu, “Su Lu, tell me, would you?”
Bo Jingshen couldn’t be bothered with him, pulling Su Lu to his side, blocking Jiang Li’s disturbance.
Then he and Su Lu went into her room together, “Change your clothes, we’re heading out now.”
“Wait for me,” Su Lu picked up her clothes and went to the bathroom.
Bo Jingshen stood outside, holding a cigarette between his lips.
Just about to light it, his peripheral vision caught sight of a small medicine box in the trash can.
His eyes darkened.
