Miss Si's feigned innocence went too far, and the aloof Mr. Bo was easily swayed.

For a fleeting moment, Si Yuan's mind went completely blank.

What does Bo Yusen mean by this?

Does he want to break up with her?

What should I do?

If he really breaks up with her, it seems like no matter what she does, she can't keep him.

She shook her head, gripping his hand tightly with all her might.

It seems that if you're not careful, he'll just walk away and never talk to you again.

"I don't think you're worthless, and I never wanted to break up with you... I just..."

Her eyes involuntarily reddened, and before she could finish speaking, tears welled up in her eyes.

"I just need a little time."

Bo Yusen probably doesn't care. He's in a high position, so even if others have something to say, they wouldn't dare to say it to him.

But she couldn't be indifferent; she didn't want Bo Yusen to become a laughing stock and fodder for gossip.

Bo Yusen couldn't bear to see Si Yuan's tearful eyes. Just now, he felt more anxious and uneasy than angry.

She knew he was waiting for her, and she could have contacted him immediately and asked him to take her to the hospital.

But he refused to tell him, and even when he arrived at the hospital, he didn't receive a call from her.

This injury wasn't too serious, but if it becomes life-threatening next time, she'll probably do the same...

Bo Yusen took a deep breath, still unable to bear hurting her, and said, "Let go."

Si Yuan shook her head, tears dripping onto the back of his hand.

"I won't leave, I want to see your injury..."

"Really?" Si Yuan asked distrustfully.

"...If I really want to leave, you can't stop me."

Seeing Si Yuan's tears flow even more freely, a warm hand wiped them away for her. "I promise I won't leave."

Si Yuan gently released his hand, but then felt uneasy and tightly gripped the hem of his clothes.

His insecurity is heartbreaking to see.

Bo Yusen lifted the blanket and glanced at Si Yuan's ankle.

Her slender ankles were bruised and swollen, looking unusually ferocious.

Si Yuan looked at his furrowed brows and reached out to touch them. "It looks serious, but it doesn't hurt at all."

"Yeah?"

"Hmm, really not... hiss..."

Bo Yusen only pressed it once, and Si Yuan gasped in pain.

"Doesn't it not hurt?"

Si Yuan looked aggrieved and reached out for a hug.

Bo Yusen pulled her into his arms. "Why did Jiang Lai push you?"

Si Yuan sighed. Sure enough, he already knew.

She originally wanted to improve her relationship with Jiang Lai, but now things are getting worse.

"It seems she knows about us, so she's very angry... I'm sorry..."

Bo Yusen clicked his tongue in displeasure. "Never learn?"

Si Yuan knew that Bo Yusen didn't like her saying sorry.

"You're so busy, you just got back from abroad, and then this happens. It's all my fault, I didn't handle it well."

Bo Yusen punished Si Yuan by biting her fingertip.

It doesn't hurt, it just itches.

Bo Yusen: "It has nothing to do with you. I didn't handle this matter well."

"Pfft—"

Si Yuan couldn't help but chuckle. "This isn't a blame-shifting session."

"Still laughing... If you dare not notify me immediately next time something like this happens, see how I deal with you."

Si Yuan stopped smiling and nuzzled Bo Yusen's chest with her head. "I really know I was wrong."

After much coaxing and kissing, Si Yuan finally managed to appease Bo Yusen.

"Beep beep beep—"

Bo Yusen's phone went off with an alarm. He took it out and glanced at it; it was from 233.

"What's wrong?"

Before Si Yuan could look over, Bo Yusen put away his phone. "A thief broke into the house."

"what?"

"You stay here and recover, I'm going home."

Si Yuan quickly nodded, "Okay, it's okay if other things are lost, but 233 can't be lost."

Si Yuan has already considered 233 a good friend. Besides, 233 is worth 1.6 million!

Doorway.

When Shen Xingzhu saw Bo Yusen come out, she immediately put on a fawning and respectful smile, "President Bo..."

"Miss Shen, I'll leave A-Yuan to you."

Shen Xingzhu immediately waved her hand, "No trouble at all, it's my duty."

"Ms. Shen, you have my contact information. If there's anything going on here, please give me a call."

"Definitely! Definitely!"

Watching Bo Yusen's figure disappear into the elevator, Shen Xingzhu breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

He then strode confidently into the ward.

"Si Yuan—"

She stood by the bed with her hands on her hips, glaring angrily at Si Yuan, who lay on the hospital bed like a salted fish.

"Am I still your good girl? You didn't even tell me that you were dating Bo Yusen!"

Shen Xingzhu went on a rampage, "Wow, if I hadn't just seen you coaxing him through the crack in the door, I wouldn't have known that my dear girl is so sweet and good at being affectionate."

Si Yuan reached out and tugged at Shen Xingzhu, but Shen Xingzhu shook her off, speaking sarcastically.

"Weren't you quite capable in front of Bo Yusen just now? Now that he's gone, you're playing the sickly beauty?"

"This is so hard... ugh..."

Si Yuan covered her mouth in discomfort. Shen Xingzhu was startled and immediately placed the trash can in front of her. "Put it in the trash can."

Si Yuan gagged for a long time, but nothing came out.

The main reason is that she has been too busy these past few days and hasn't been eating properly without Bo Yusen's supervision.

She was extremely dizzy and only felt relieved enough to lie down on her pillow after Bo Yusen left.

Shen Xingzhu started rambling on and on, and she wanted to explain, but...

I feel nauseous.

"Damn... how is it this serious? I'll call President Bo..."

"Don't……"

Si Yuan held Shen Xingzhu's hand, "It's nothing serious, it's probably just the medicine taking effect. I just need to rest for a bit."

"Okay, then you rest, I won't disturb you..."

"I'll tell you slowly when I wake up."

"Oh, there's no rush..."

Si Yuan smiled and closed her eyes wearily.

She hadn't been asleep for long when Si Qingwan and He Shuqing arrived at the hospital immediately after receiving the news.

"Ah Yuan, are you alright?"

Si Qingwan held Si Yuan's hand, her face full of worry.

Si Yuan stared blankly at the hand holding hers, her feelings quite complicated.

My mother never used to do this, why is she doing it now?

"fine……"

Si Qingwan frowned, her face grim. "I heard that the person who pushed you off the stage was Jiang Lai. Isn't she Bo Jiuye's niece? What conflict do you two have?"

"She... because of what happened last time, she still hates me..."

Si Yuan ultimately didn't tell Si Qingwan about her relationship with Bo Yusen.

Even she herself didn't know why, she just subconsciously wanted to keep it a secret.

"It's been so long, and she's still holding a grudge? Hmph... Does she really think the Si family is easy to bully?"

"Mother……"

Si Yuan looked at Si Qingwan quietly, "I'll handle this myself."

"you……"

"Don't worry, I'll handle it."

Si Yuan glanced at He Shuqing, who then said to Si Qingwan, "This is ultimately a matter between children. If it involves families, it won't be so easy to handle. Let's leave it to A Yuan."

The Bo family and the Si family already had a deep-seated feud.

Si Qingwan originally wanted to use Si Yingying to win over Bo Yusen in order to ease the relationship between the two families.

Unexpectedly, Si Yingying's actions were two-faced; not only did she fail to win over Bo Yusen, but she also caused the Si family to lose face.

If, at this point, the Si family were to further antagonize the Bo family because of Si Yuan and Jiang Lai's affair, it would certainly not be a wise move.

Thinking of this, Si Qingwan patted Si Yuan's head and said, "Then you should handle it boldly. We won't cause trouble, but we're not afraid of trouble either. Don't forget, you have me and the Si family standing behind you."

In the past, Si Yuan would have been very happy to have Si Qingwan backing her up like this.

But now, she has an indescribable feeling.

That feeling made her very uncomfortable and uneasy.

Si Yuan looked at Si Qingwan and noticed that several wrinkles had appeared at the corners of Si Qingwan's eyes.

Since Si Yingying's comeback banquet, Si Qingwan's condition has not been very good.

After Si Yingying got married, she gradually recovered, but she had visibly aged.

"Aunt Shuqing, it's getting late. You and your mother should go back and rest."

He Shuqing nodded. "Okay, you should get some rest too. Call home if anything happens."

"good……"

After the two left, Shen Xingzhu leaned close to Si Yuan and asked, "Is it just my imagination? Why does it feel like your unapproachable mother is treating you differently?"

If even Shen Xingzhu noticed it, how could Si Yuan not notice it?

"Never mind, I'm a little hungry. What do you want to eat? Let's order takeout."

"No need... your boyfriend has already sent the food over."

Shen Xingzhu took out two insulated boxes from the cabinet.

One was for Shen Xingzhu, and the other was for Si Yuan.

Shen Xingzhu opened it, and inside were the imperial kitchen's signature dishes: three dishes and a soup, all with excellent color, aroma, and taste.

Si Yuandi, on the other hand, seemed to have little appetite for the nutritious porridge and tonics.

"Wow, as expected of President Bo, even his food delivery service knows how to tailor the dishes to the specific needs of the customer."

Shen Xingzhu took a bite and smiled happily. "Oh, if I could stay with you all the time, I could eat food from the imperial kitchen. You should stay in the hospital a few more days."

Si Yuan: "..."

"By the way, why didn't you tell your mother about your relationship with Bo Yusen?"

Si Yuan took a bite of the porridge. Although it didn't look very appetizing, it tasted quite good.

Her stomach is empty now, and it can't handle eating oily and salty food.

"It's not the right time yet, let's talk about it later."

Shen Xingzhu suddenly felt happy. "Alright, considering you didn't even tell your mother about this, I'll forgive you."

Si Yuan smiled. "Thank you, Queen Shen, for not holding it against me. However, you can't tell anyone about this, like just now, or let anyone hear that Bo Yusen is my boyfriend."

"Tsk... No wonder President Bo was angry. With you hiding things like this, President Bo probably thought he wasn't good enough to present."

"Of course not..."

How could a good man like Bo Yusen be unpresentable?

Shen Xingzhu sighed and took Si Yuan's hand. "Sometimes you just overthink things. As long as President Bo doesn't care, why do you care what others say?"

Si Yuan longed to have an ordinary relationship like everyone else.

But since she and Bo Yusen were born into a wealthy family, they had to consider all sorts of things.

Bo Yusen is too good to her; she doesn't want him to get hurt in any way.

Thinking of something, Si Yuan took out her phone and sent a WeChat message to Bo Yusen: 【How is it? Did you lose anything?】

After a long while, Bo Yusen finally replied, "That lump of iron is still there."

Si Yuan couldn't help but chuckle. [You're saying that, lol. Be careful, lol. I'll get angry with you.]

After that, Bo Yusen did not reply. Si Yuan looked at the rising full moon outside the window and couldn't help but feel a little worried.
