Out of control and sinking

Chapter 451

Jiang Ruan's analysis was spot on. After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but sigh, "So, your dad is quite indifferent to fame and fortune. After all, if this kind of thing happened to many men, at most they would end up with both sides suffering, and at worst they would lose their reputation and be labeled as scumbags, but they would never take responsibility."

"But your father took responsibility for your mother, making her the mistress of the Bo family, and he left with nothing, leaving all the property to you. Actually, he did you a lot right."

Bo Ye had never seriously considered what Jiang Ruan said.

In his mind, his father was a stranger.

In fact, over the years, he could count the number of times they had met on one hand.

"maybe."

Jiang Ruan asked him curiously, "Then where is your dad now?"

Bo Ye replied, "Abroad."

"Back then, his departure from the Bo family with nothing caused a sensation in the entire capital. My grandfather was so angry that he had a high blood pressure attack, but he couldn't stop him. Countless people in the capital were laughing at him. He was also smart and thought ahead about his future, so he went abroad to develop his career."

Bo Ye's lips twitched slightly: "I heard that he got married to that woman right after he arrived, and later started a company that has been doing quite well over the years and has already gone public."

Does this mean that outstanding people are outstanding no matter where they are?

Without the Bo family, they have to work hard on their own.

Even if it's tough, you can still succeed in the end.

Jiang Ruan asked softly, "Was that woman his true love, or someone he found later?"

Bo Ye frankly stated, "She was his first love."

“We were together before I married my mother, and we were together for seven years. My mother interfered in their relationship and stole him away.”

At this point, Bo Ye paused for a moment, then continued, "She also came to my father's and mother's wedding. She even gave my mother a gift on the spot, which my father gave her. She said it was a bracelet that my grandmother left for the future mistress of the Bo family."

"And then?" Jiang Ruan was very curious, and was quite interested in the affairs of the older generation.

The man she had loved for seven years was stolen away, married, and had children. The woman even had the courage to go to the scene.

If it were her, she'd be lucky not to kill the other person.

Thinking about it this way, Jiang Ruan felt that her woman had a really big vision, definitely bigger than hers.

If it were her, she wouldn't have such a good temper.

“My dad saw it and told her to take it back, not to give it to my mom.”

Jiang Ruan's eyes widened: "Wow, is it really that direct?"

As they chatted, with her in his arms, Bo Ye felt a sudden sense of relief.

A smile played on his lips as he said, "Mm."

"And what about your mom?" Jiang Ruan asked. "Wouldn't she be furious?"

"Pretty much." Bo Ye laughed. "She cares a lot about her image, how could she tolerate something like this? She smashed the bouquet and everything on the spot. If my grandfather hadn't intervened, she would have made a huge scene."

Jiang Ruan sighed deeply.

"Did you see your father after that?" Jiang Ruan asked him. "Did he come to see you?"

After all, he is his own son.

But Bo Ye said directly, "No."

“He has no feelings for me, and I have no feelings for him either,” Bo Ye said. “In his heart, he had already done more than enough by leaving everything of the Bo family to us back then.”

Jiang Ruan hugged him tighter, rubbed her cheek against his chest, and muttered unhappily, "Hearing you say that, I finally understand what it means to let the grudges of the previous generation bring misfortune to the next generation."

Bo Ye laughed and said, "Perhaps this is fate."

Seeing that her eyelids were drooping, Bo Ye pinched her cheek and said, "It's almost four o'clock, go to sleep."

"Let's postpone tomorrow's work to the afternoon. You can sleep in a little longer tomorrow, and I won't bother you tonight so you can catch up on your sleep."

Jiang Ruan replied, "No, I have a notice to give this morning, and everything has already been arranged."

"Actually, I wasn't that sleepy. I was quite sleepy before, but you woke me up just now."

She mumbled with her eyes closed. Bo Ye raised an eyebrow, leaned closer to her face, and said in a drawn-out tone, "Is that so?"

"How about we do it again tomorrow morning? That way you won't be sleepy at work?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the girl's tightly closed eyes snapped open.

Jiang Ruan's terrified gaze met the man's dark eyes, and she quickly moved to the side to lie down, no longer wanting to lean against him.

"Please don't! You're trying to kill me!"

They even came early in the morning.

Oh, my legs are so weak I'm going to the company.

The kind of shoes that make you slip when you walk in high heels.

It's not shameful enough.

If someone sees through her and something gets out, how will she survive?
Jiang Ruan heard Bo Ye's laughter and turned her head with a pout, only to see that he was in a great mood.

She knew he was just teasing her.

Jiang Ruan's lips curved into a smile.

He pulled her down to lie down, then reached out and turned off the nightlight, plunging the bedroom into darkness.

All that could be heard was their breathing.

Bo Ye's voice rang out: "I'm going on a business trip next week, and I estimate I won't be back for another two weeks."

Jiang Ruan replied, "Okay."

She turned to him and asked, "Where are you going on your business trip?"

“Britain,” Bo Ye said in a low voice, “They’ve contacted several new teams there and are planning to launch new projects. I need to personally coordinate with them.”

"You know that the projects invested in by the Bo family are always quite large, ranging from several hundred million to tens of billions of yuan, so there are certain risks involved, but there haven't been any problems."

Jiang Ruan naturally trusted his abilities, hugged the man's waist tightly, and smelled his fragrance all around her nose: "Mmm."

"I'll take you to the Bo family ancestral hall when we get back," Bo Ye said. "I was planning to take you next week, but it seems like we won't have enough time now."

“There’s no rush,” Jiang Ruan said, but Bo Ye interrupted her, “I’m in a hurry.”

“The Bo family has a tradition: a new bride must go to the Bo family ancestral hall, meet the elders, and receive blessings from the older generation of the Bo family before she can go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to get her marriage certificate.”

Bo Ye's magnetic voice slowly rang in her ears, causing Jiang Ruan's eyes to widen: "Get a marriage certificate?"

I go.

He's already thinking about getting their marriage certificate.

Jiang Ruan's mind went blank for a moment, or rather, she became completely alert: "You want to get a marriage certificate with me?"

She asked, quite shocked, even somewhat incredulous.

Bo Ye chuckled in exasperation: "Is this surprising?"

He took her small hand in his and gradually intertwined his fingers.

"A little." Jiang Ruan said honestly, "After being with you for so long, I had completely forgotten about getting our marriage certificate."

Because she never thought she would get a marriage certificate.

When she was with him, she felt completely lost.

For the past two years, I've focused all my attention on work.

She was even less likely to think about it, because she felt their relationship was probably short-lived.

When he loses interest in her or gets tired of her, that's when they'll break up.

Besides, he is Bo Ye, the president of the Bo Group.

It's said that rich men can't have only one woman in their lifetime, they must have at least several. She never thought she was special enough to be the only one in his heart.

She wasn't that arrogant.

At this moment, Jiang Ruan felt like she was dreaming.

If it really is a dream, she hopes she will never wake up in this lifetime.

"According to Chen Nan, the normal order of dating for ordinary people is: confessing feelings, getting together, dating, meeting each other's parents, getting a marriage certificate, getting engaged, and getting married."

"We got together right away, which is a bit unusual. As for meeting the parents, you don't have any. I'll go with you to your hometown another day to offer incense to your uncles and aunts and tell them that I want to marry you and make you my wife. As for me, well... if you want to meet my mom, I can take you there tomorrow. You don't need to meet my dad; he's not considered part of my family."

Hearing Bo Ye's voice, Jiang Ruan took a deep breath to calm herself down.

She said, "Then forget it, I don't want to see your mother."

“She doesn’t like me, and if I go there, I’ll only be humiliating myself. You know I have a sharp tongue, and it wouldn’t be good if I made her have a high blood pressure attack.”

Jiang Ruan spoke the truth.

Bo Ye smiled and said, "Okay." He liked her fiery personality.

Has a unique personality.

—

When Jiang Ruan was woken up in the morning, her mind was racing. With her messy hair, she sat on the bed, staring at the ceiling with her eyes closed.

He looked like he hadn't slept at all.

She muttered, "Was it an earthquake?"

"I feel like the ground is shaking, I'm so dizzy."

Bo Ye had already washed up and changed his clothes. Hearing this, he said with concern, "You can go back to sleep. I'll take care of Sister Qin."

"We're not short of that little bit of money."

Hearing this, Jiang Ruan considered giving in for a moment.

But then she thought about work, and how the people at the company had been busy preparing and planning for her these past few days.

If she doesn't go in the morning, it's like they've worked for nothing.

Jiang Ruan felt guilty and rubbed her hair.

She finally opened her eyes: "No, I'm not sleepy."

Bo Ye looked refreshed as he tied his tie; he had changed the color today, wearing a full dark brown suit.

It adds a touch of gentle gentlemanliness to the formal look.

But his face remained cold and indifferent.

Seeing him like this, Jiang Ruan couldn't help but question the meaning of life: "Why aren't you sleepy?"

"We both went to bed at the same time, didn't we?"

When asked, Bo Ye looked over and said, "I've always had short sleep durations; two hours is enough for me."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

Is this even human?

Two hours is enough to sleep?
This reminded Jiang Ruan of the medicine he had taken before, and she instantly perked up and got out of bed.

When she stood before him, her expression was somewhat strange: "Are you... still taking that medication?"

Startled by the question, Bo Ye paused for a moment: "What medicine?"

"It's that sleeping pill-like medicine you took when you couldn't sleep and had headaches at night." Jiang Ruan frowned, somewhat remorseful. "I'm so stupid, how could I forget that? Are you still having trouble sleeping at night?"

Bo Ye then realized what was happening, and he couldn't help but chuckle.

He reached out and ruffled her hair, saying, "Silly girl, I didn't eat anything. I'm sleeping really well at night now, and I haven't had a headache in a long time."

Bo Ye laughed and said, "I had forgotten about it even if you hadn't mentioned it."

"Really?"

Jiang Ruan blinked, looking very serious: "You're not lying to me, are you?"

"You didn't eat it behind my back, did you?"

Bo Ye laughed in exasperation: "No."

"Oh, okay."

Jiang Ruan felt relieved, and the next second, she fell backward and lay down again.

"Ugh..." Jiang Ruan was a little frustrated: "I'm so sleepy, I don't want to go to work, I want to sleep."

Bo Ye felt sorry for you and decisively said, "I'll help you ask for leave."

"Sister Qin dared not refuse."

Jiang Ruan knew, of course, that Sister Qin wouldn't dare refuse.

She rolled around in bed a few times, but finally got up to wash up.

I washed my face and felt much more awake.

When Jiang Ruan arrived at the restaurant, Bo Ye had already finished eating and left.

Her breakfast was laid out on the table.

Bo Ye likes Chinese breakfast: porridge, pancakes, and steamed buns.

But looking at the porridge in front of her, Jiang Ruan sat down, picked up a spoon, scooped up a spoonful, and ate it, only to find it tasteless.

She called the maid over: "Make me a cup of coffee, an iced Americano, three-tenths sugar, no milk."

Upon hearing this, the maid smiled and said, "Mr. Bo has already given instructions, and the kitchen has prepared it. I'll bring it over to you now."

Jiang Ruan asked in surprise, "Did he already confess?"

"Yes, Mr. Bo said you didn't sleep well last night, so he asked us to make you an iced Americano, with only 30% sugar and no milk, just like you said."

"Mrs. Bo, you and Mr. Bo have a great rapport."

The maid teased her with a smile, and Jiang Ruan, who was easily embarrassed, blushed and said, "Go away, you're bullying me now, aren't you?"

"Then bring it over, I need something cold to perk myself up."

Maid: "Okay."

Sipping her iced Americano, Jiang Ruan suddenly remembered something, took out her phone, snapped a picture, and sent it to Bo Ye.

With a slight curve to her red lips, she typed.

Mr. Bo, we have great chemistry!

Click Send.

With a "ding-dong," Bo Ye was driving when his phone rang.

The screen lit up, and the notification was from Jiang Ruan.

When he stopped the car at the traffic light, he turned on his phone and saw this text message.

There are also photos of iced coffee.

A smile flickered in the man's eyes as he replied.

"Yes, Mrs. Bo."

These few simple words actually convey all the emotions.

When Jiang Ruan received the text message, she couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.

I don't know why, but I feel like a newlywed couple.

Mr. Bo and Mrs. Bo.

Tsk.

That's such a sweet name.

An iced Americano with 30% sugar is bitter, but perhaps because Jiang Ruan felt sweet inside, the coffee she drank tasted sweet as well.

After finishing her coffee, Jiang Ruan felt 100% more energetic.

I drove to work.

When she arrived at the company, it was unusually quiet. When she opened the door, Jiang Ruan didn't see a single person.

There was no one at the front desk.

Something was wrong everywhere.

Looking at the empty company, Jiang Ruan almost thought that the company had gone bankrupt and the place was deserted because she hadn't come all night.

Jiang Ruan walked inside in her high heels.

The sound of high heels scraping against the ground was the only sound; the surroundings were deathly silent.

Where is the usual lively scene of you coming to my place?

The further Jiang Ruan walked, the more uneasy she felt.
Just then, the door to the finance department next door opened.

Jiang Ruan looked up and finally saw a familiar face. She quickly walked over and asked, "Xiao Chen, where is everyone from the company? There's no one here."

But they found Xiao Chen looking very serious.

Jiang Ruan's heart skipped a beat, a bad feeling creeping over her: "Has something happened?"

When asked, Xiao Chen sighed, his tone heavy: "Don't mention President Jiang, I can't explain it either. Sister Qin is waiting for you in the office. You'll understand everything when you see her."

After saying that, Xiao Chen turned and left.

"Xiao Chen, you..."
