Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant!-Chapter 37 - Every Word Is Like a Slap in the Face

“No, no problem, please come in,” Zhuo Kang quickly responded.

The expression on Bo Jingshen’s face gradually subsided.

He turned his head and said to Lu Feichi, “Got it.

Let’s not talk about this now.”

Then he raised his hand and beckoned, “Su Xiaolu, come here.”

Su Lu walked towards him, first staring at his eyes and face, unable to discern any signs of intoxication, then staring at the glass on the table in front of him.

Bo Jingshen said, “I haven’t had any alcohol.”

“Really?” Su Lu suspiciously looked at the glass on the table.

Bo Jingshen brought the glass close to her lips.

Several lines of sight around them were all fixed in their direction, making Su Lu’s face feel somewhat hot.

She sipped the tea-colored liquid in the glass with ice cubes.

It wasn’t the spicy fragrance of whiskey but rather…

the light, sweet taste of Unity Green Tea?

So he really hadn’t been drinking alcohol.

The gathering for their project department hadn’t actually ended, but she had come over early, worrying that Bo Jingshen might drink.

After all, he seemed like someone who didn’t take injuries seriously.

“Do you believe me now?” Bo Jingshen raised an eyebrow.

Seeing her obediently nod, holding the glass with both hands as if wanting to bury her face in it,

Zhuo Kang, being loud-mouthed and unable to keep his voice down, said,

“So many years have passed, and their relationship is still so good.

Our female classmates in the science and technology department still don’t stand a chance.”

Su Lu muttered louder, wanting to bury her face in the glass.

“Finished with the dinner gathering?” Bo Jingshen asked.

Su Lu finally put the glass down, “Almost, I left ahead of time.”

As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a slightly laughing, still gentle male voice say, “The Harvester, long time no see.”

Hearing this nickname, Su Lu felt helpless, but to be honest, she had started to get used to it since she first heard it from Old Zou.

She looked up at the owner of the voice— a man sitting next to Bo Jingshen.

Su Lu didn’t recognize him immediately, but gradually, she did recognize him, and her expression froze slightly.

“Remember me?

I’m Lu Feichi, Bo Jingshen’s roommate.” Lu Feichi’s expression and voice were both quite gentle.

Yet Su Lu’s face still changed slightly upon recognizing him.

One of Bo Jingshen’s roommates.

She wasn’t one to hold grudges, but people always have especially vivid memories of painful experiences.

She remembered the attitudes of Bo Jingshen’s three roommates during that time.

The round-eyed, baby-faced Rong Yu looked the most well-behaved, but he had the worst temper, throwing away the gifts she had given to Bo Jingshen and some of their couple’s items into the garbage.

Luan Siyuan was indifferent and silent, not saying much but his eyes showed no warmth.

In contrast, it was Lu Feichi, who always had the gentlest appearance and voice, that spoke words as sharp as knives, like slaps to her face.

“Su Lu, where were you all this time?

You treated Bo Jingshen like he wasn’t a person, now you’re here eagerly wanting to see him, who are you performing for?

Trying to act as both the victim and the innocent party?

Amusing, isn’t it?

Could it be you’re actually the victim now?”

Every word was like a slap to her face.

She couldn’t argue back and had no way to refute, because Lu Feichi spoke the truth.

She had indeed hurt Bo Jingshen, and she really did want to see him.

Afterward, searching for hours for the things Rong Yu had thrown away at the garbage dump wasn’t as deeply ingrained in her memory.

Despite how dirty and tiring it was, that memory wasn’t as impactful as Lu Feichi’s words.

The memory was not of the searching process but of the end result of not finding anything.

She couldn’t find anything.

In the memories of her time with Bo Jingshen, the surprises she had prepared for him, and all their couple’s items, Bo Jingshen’s half of everything,

it was all gone.

Disappearing from her world just like he did at the time.

Seeing the changes in Su Lu’s expression, Lu Feichi felt a bit helpless.

He raised his glass to her without saying much, then downed his drink in one go.

Perhaps, everything was understood without words.

Su Lu pondered for a moment but didn’t use the green tea to fill her glass.

Instead, she poured some amber-colored liquor, raised her glass to him, and drank it.

Bo Jingshen leaned back on the sofa.

Everyone wasn’t sure if it was an illusion, but it seemed that after the Harvester came, the intimidating aura from the boss didn’t feel as overwhelming.

With Zhuo Kang leading the way, drinking to Bo Jingshen first, everyone else loosened up.

They all started drinking together.

Su Lu prevented Bo Jingshen from touching alcohol, doing all the drinking for him.

She didn’t have a particularly good alcohol tolerance, but luckily, their old classmates didn’t have any bad drinking habits or intentions of forcing alcohol.

Everyone just took a few polite sips.

Jiang Minhui’s job required socializing and she had developed a good tolerance, probably used to currying favor with more drinking.

So initially, she had intended to drink more with Su Lu, holding a bottle ready to fill Su Lu’s glass.

But soon her enthusiastic smile froze at the corners of her mouth.

A man’s slender hand reached over from the side, covering the glass.

Bo Jingshen said nothing, just looked at Jiang Minhui quietly.

Jiang Minhui suddenly felt her throat dry up, stopping her action awkwardly.

“I just wanted to toast her a couple of times…” Jiang Minhui murmured.

Bo Jingshen said coolly, “If you like drinking so much, I’ll buy you a dozen and you can drink to your heart’s content?”

Jiang Minhui opened her mouth, unable to say anything.

Lu Feichi laughed and mediated, “Minhui, we’re all old classmates here, let’s not bring those drinking routines here?

Let’s just have fun today, no need to drink until we drop, right?”

Jiang Minhui awkwardly said, “You’re right.”

Fortunately, the atmosphere of the gathering wasn’t affected by this interruption.

After the private room session ended, Lu Feichi arranged a bath upstairs.

But Bo Jingshen and Su Lu didn’t plan to join, so a group of old classmates saw them off to the entrance.

Since Bo Jingshen hadn’t drunk, he went to the parking lot to get the car.

Lu Feichi thought about it and couldn’t help but quietly say to Su Lu, “Su Lu, I said some harsh words back then, don’t take it to heart.”

Su Lu was stunned.

She blinked quickly and shook her head gently.

“Considering the circumstances at the time, you weren’t wrong.”

“Anyway…

I’m sorry.”

Su Lu shook her head and was about to say it was fine, but suddenly thought of something and hurriedly asked, “You…

you didn’t tell Bo Jingshen about this, right?”
