"Dad promises you that after you marry Gu Zhiyuan, your sister will never affect your position in the Gu family! The position of Mrs. Gu can only be yours."

The light in Ji Shunuan's eyes dimmed little by little.

She looked up in disbelief at the man in front of her whom she had called father for 23 years.

I knew he was biased, but I didn't expect him to be biased to this extent.

"Dad came to see you today and wants you to do him a favor. After you kicked Wushuang out of the apartment, your mom and I had a quarrel! For the sake of harmony in our family, you should give half of your assets to Wushuang."

"Originally, you sisters each owned half of the Ji family's assets." Ji Jianchong said, and took out an agreement and handed it forward as a matter of course.

He looked at Ji Shunuan with kindness, but his eyes were full of calculation.

"That's enough! You really disgust me. These assets were left to my mother by my grandfather. Why do you want me to give half of them to that illegitimate daughter?"

"The Gu family used the kindness they gave my mother to morally blackmail me for 23 years. Isn't it enough to make me work like a slave for the Gu family? Now they want to take advantage of the opportunity to rob me?"

"Ji Jianchong, I just called you dad, which was a compliment to you! Now please get out of here." Ji Shunuan was very excited.

She was so angry that she almost vomited blood.

He didn't care when he got into a car accident.

However, he was only interested in the assets in her hands, trying to pave the way for the mother and daughter, and even wanted to blackmail her morally.

There is no such good thing in the world.

"Ji Shunuan, don't be shameless. You are my daughter! As long as you are not married, your assets must stay in the Ji family! Then I have the final say."

Ji Jianchong's face turned red instantly and he stood up suddenly.

With a "bang", the chair fell down, and the sound kept echoing in the ward.

He was so angry that he was shaking. He took the agreement and threw it hard on Ji Shunuan's face, pointed at her nose and cursed: "Do you really think you can get rid of me just because you have read a few books?"

"I'm telling you, I'm giving you face so I'll let you give half to Wushuang! If I don't give you face, don't even think about taking a penny." Ji Jianchong said, and walked away with big strides.

His words kept echoing in Ji Shunuan's ears.

When Bo Jingcheng heard the noise, he pushed the door open and saw the mess on the floor. He rushed in and collided with Ji Jian.

"Miss Ji." Bo Jingcheng's Adam's apple moved, and his voice almost stuck in his throat.

The man's slender fingertips clenched subconsciously.

He quickly turned his head, his deep black eyes coldly staring at Ji Jianchong's figure, the hostility in his eyes could hardly be concealed.

Ji Jianchong felt murderous gazes behind him. He felt guilty and unsure whether his words today could threaten Ji Shunuan, so he slowly turned around.

"If you dare to destroy your sister, get out of the Ji family." Ji Jian shouted coldly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it.

Facing Ji Shunuan's cold eyes, Ji Jianchong couldn't help but shudder. He slammed the door and left angrily.

The ward was eerily quiet.

Bo Jingcheng looked at the papers all over the floor and quickly reached out to pick them up.

At this time, the old lady who went out for a walk came back with food and stood there with a smile on her face. When she saw the mess in the ward, she instantly became furious.

"Bo Jingcheng, did you bully Nuannuan?" the old lady said, rushing in with soup.

She put the soup box on the table, turned around and squeezed in between the two of them, and said angrily: "Didn't grandma teach you to care for women since you were a child? Nuannuan is so pretty and kind, but you actually bullied her behind grandma's back. Did your conscience get eaten by a dog?"

Originally, the moment she saw Ji Shunuan, she made up her mind to bring them together.

Unexpectedly, Bo Jingcheng messed up the job in the blink of an eye.

The old lady's heart was bleeding, as she was about to lose her granddaughter-in-law.

"Grandma, it's none of his business." Ji Shunuan felt so upset that she could hardly breathe.

She thought she wouldn't care about Ji Jianchong's thoughts, but when he said it heartlessly, she still felt uncomfortable, even if only for a moment.

And the discomfort reached its peak when the old lady rushed in to protect her.

Tears of grievance welled up in her eyes. When she tried to blink them away, the old lady turned around, reached out and hugged her, gently patting her shoulder.

"Don't be afraid, Nuannuan, don't cry. Grandma is here to support you." The old lady coaxed in a low voice.

Her voice was gentle, as if it could soothe all the sorrow.

The tears that Ji Shunuan had originally blinked back burst out again at this moment.

"Grandma." Ji Shunuan's voice was choked, and his hands tightly grasped the corner of the old lady's clothes.

Bo Jingcheng stood there, his tall body stiffened, then he sorted out the dropped agreements one by one in a gentle and orderly manner, and scanned the contents with his black eyes.

There was a flash of surprise in the man's eyes, and he looked down again in disbelief.

Only after confirming that the content was correct did Bo Jingcheng's bony fingertips tighten slightly, as if he wanted to tear a hole in the agreement.

Compared to being misunderstood and scolded by the old lady, the content of the agreement shocked him even more.

I knew that the rich and powerful were as deep as the sea, but I didn't know that human hearts could be so self-righteous.

"Don't be afraid! With grandma here, no one can bully you!" The old lady coaxed in a low voice, turning her head to look at Bo Jingcheng, and the two looked at each other.

"It's not me." Bo Jingcheng touched the tip of his nose and explained quickly.

If I don't explain, I'm afraid I'll be punished to kneel in the ancestral temple tonight.

Although he is decisive in his work, he never disobeys the old lady! In the Bo family, the old lady still has the final say on small matters.

"Nuannuan, tell grandma honestly, did Bo Jingcheng scold you?" The old lady was still worried.

It’s not that I don’t trust Bo Jingcheng, but he was the only one I saw when I first came in.

The Bo family had a poor luck with children, especially for the past hundred years, when the family had only been passed down from one bloodline to another! She had given up hope of having a daughter in her early years, but after the old man died, she had given up hope.

Until she met Ji Shunuan today, she liked this little girl from the bottom of her heart.

"Grandma, it has nothing to do with Mr. Bo. Something happened in my family." Ji Shunuan quickly shook her head.

The old lady wanted to say something, but someone held her shoulders. Bo Jingcheng forcibly turned the old lady over and pushed her out, saying, "Grandma, it's getting late. I'll let Cheng Qing take you home."

"You can chase me away, but don't bully the little girl." Although the old lady said this, she didn't stop at all.

Thinking of her grandson and Ji Shunuan being alone together, hope ignited in her heart.

When she was pushed out of the ward, she lowered her voice and said, "Coax her well, okay? I think Nuannuan is good. If you don't want to go on a blind date, chase her!"

"......"Bo Jingcheng was silent.

He closed the door of the ward, walked to her side with the agreement and gently placed it on the table.

Ji Shunuan wiped away the tears on her face with her backhand. Her eyes were clear without any emotions or fluctuations. Ji Jianchong's words kept echoing in her mind.

Once, twice, or even three times.

Until she slowly closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she suddenly grabbed the corner of Bo Jingcheng's clothes with her backhand.

"Mr. Bo." Ji Shunuan's voice was hoarse, but she called his name with a firm tone.

"Yes." Bo Jingcheng replied in a hoarse voice.
