Out of control and sinking

Xu Yun sat on a sofa not far behind her, Jiang Ruan with her back to her, boldly hooking her arm around the man like a bewitching vixen.

Looking at her alluring eyes and bewitching appearance, Bo Ye's Adam's apple bobbed unconsciously.

Hearing her say that, he mischievously pinched her waist with the hand that was around her waist.

This is Jiang Ruan's Achilles' heel.

A tingling sensation came from her waist, and Jiang Ruan's eyes widened; she almost cried out.

Thankfully, the brakes were applied in time.

Bo Ye leaned down and whispered something lewd in Jiang Ruan's ear: "Is that all you can do, huh?"

He spoke in a drawn-out, low, hoarse voice.

Jiang Ruan's ears went weak instantly.

"What about tonight?"

"Don't come crying and begging me for mercy."

As he spoke, the man's dark eyes met Xu Yun's, but his expression remained blank.

After only a moment, Bo Ye looked away.

Xu Yun, for some reason, felt inexplicably nervous, her fingers gripping the fabric as she placed it on her lap.

After speaking, Bo Ye released Jiang Ruan and walked towards Xu Yun.

"Is there something you need?"

His tone was indifferent, even distant, as if the person in front of him was a complete stranger.

Xu Yun was embarrassed, even though the person in front of her was her biological son who was related to her by blood.

But over the years, she has never truly spent time with him.

In her heart, there was only resentment towards her biological father.

She resented him for abandoning everything, abandoning her and her daughter, and running away with that other woman.

Xu Yun couldn't help but recall Jiang Ruan's words from earlier; it seemed she had never truly cared about her biological son.

"Bo Ye, I..."

Xu Yun didn't know what to say.

The atmosphere suddenly became awkward.

Just as the two were about to reach a stalemate, Jiang Ruan walked over, affectionately took Xu Yun's arm, and smiled as she smoothed things over for her: "Auntie came to visit me, Bo Ye, don't be so serious."

Upon hearing this, Bo Ye was speechless.

A look of surprise was visible on the man's face.

"She asked you to hang out?"

Bo Ye's voice was filled with disbelief.

what's happening?
He was only gone for about half a month, and their relationship improved so quickly?
Bo Ye clearly remembered how Xu Yun had been cursing and speaking ill of Jiang Ruan in his ear all these years.

Why do I suddenly find Jiang Ruan pleasing to the eye?
Jiang Ruan kept calling her "Auntie"...

Bo Ye frowned, only managing to deduce one thing.

The weasel paid New Year greetings to the rooster, which was not a good intention.

“Yes, Auntie and I are both women, so of course we have common interests.” Jiang Ruan then asked Xu Yun, “Auntie, don’t you think so?”

When someone offers a way out, how could Xu Yun possibly refuse?

He nodded quickly: "Yes."

The two of them were singing in unison, which made Bo Ye feel like an outsider.

He replied expressionlessly, "Oh."

In just over half a month since I left, everything at home has changed.

"It's almost time for dinner. Auntie, why don't you stay and eat with us? I'll have the kitchen prepare some of your favorite dishes."

Jiang Ruan's warm invitation was actually a test; she still hadn't figured out Xu Yun's true intentions for coming today.

It's so confusing.

Jiang Ruan also sensed that something was off with Xu Yun, and could only hope that things would develop in a positive direction.

After all, even though they didn't live together, she was still Bo Ye's biological mother.

We can't possibly never keep in touch during holidays and festivals, can we?

Jiang Ruan hadn't forgotten what Xu Yun had done to her in the past, but as the old saying goes, it is never too late to correct one's mistakes.

Xu Yun glanced at Bo Ye instinctively, a hint of unease flashing in her eyes: "Is this appropriate?"

Jiang Ruan comforted her, "What's wrong with that? You are Bo Ye's biological mother. This is Bo Ye's home, so it's naturally your home too. Just treat this place as your own home."

These words struck a chord with Xu Yun.

Looking at the young and beautiful Jiang Ruan in front of me, I realized that she was not only pretty, but also had high emotional intelligence.

Xu Yun couldn't help but understand why Bo Ye loved her so much.

However, it's also possible that it was just a performance.

Xu Yun lowered her eyes and looked at Bo Ye again.

The meaning is quite clear: they are seeking Bo Ye's opinion.

It's been many years since Xu Yun and Bo Ye have dined at the same table.

Xu Yun felt both nervous and excited about suddenly having dinner with him.

A few seconds later, the man said, "Stay for dinner."

After saying that, Bo Ye turned and went upstairs.

Xu Yun's eyes lit up the instant he said those words.

But Jiang Ruan noticed it with her sharp eyes.

She raised an eyebrow, as if she had sensed something unusual.

Hopefully, Xu Yun genuinely wants to build a good relationship with Bo Ye.

Otherwise, if they have other intentions.

In the end, his attempt to steal a chicken backfired and he lost the rice instead.

I'm afraid she'll have to destroy the fragile mother-son relationship between her and Bo Ye herself.

The news that Xu Yun had stayed for dinner quickly spread throughout the entire villa, causing an uproar among the butler and servants.

In the kitchen, four renowned chefs worked together to prepare dishes.

Everyone should bring out their best skills.

They chatted as they worked.

"The sun must have risen in the west today! The old lady actually stayed for dinner. You know, every time she came back to China these past few years, she would either berate President Bo or Miss Jiang. Why has she suddenly changed her tune today?" "Who knows? Maybe she's been moved by our Miss Jiang's beauty and kindness. President Bo proposed to Miss Jiang, and it's a done deal that Miss Jiang will become the future mistress of the Bo family. If the old lady continues to go against President Bo, what good will she do in the future?"

"That's right, that's right. Mr. Bo dotes on Miss Jiang so much. After they get married, won't Miss Jiang be the one calling the shots in the Bo family? The old lady is still going against Miss Jiang. I'm afraid that even if Miss Jiang has a child with Mr. Bo, she won't call her 'Grandma'."

"That's right. But it's a good thing. It's best if the old lady and Miss Jiang get along well. The happiest thing is for the whole family to live in harmony in the future."

Half an hour later, a total of eighteen dishes were laid out on the table.

Xu Yun looked at the dishes in front of her, all of which were her favorites. Jiang Ruan had asked her what she liked to eat earlier, and she said she liked sweet and sour dishes.

There were eight or nine dishes in front of us, six of which were sweet and sour, and the other three were refreshing and not greasy.

"Auntie, try it and see if it suits your taste." Jiang Ruan looked at her and said with a kind smile, "It's our own home, no need to be polite."

Such behavior.

She seemed more like the lady of the house.

Xu Yun nodded, picked up her chopsticks, and took a piece of sweet and sour pork ribs.

It tastes really good.

The three of them ate their food, and Xu Yun ate with elegance, displaying a refined and graceful demeanor.

Bo Ye went even further, making even his chewing quite conspicuous.

Jiang Ruan bit her chopsticks, wanting to find a topic to talk about, but then felt that the Bo family had strict rules, and besides, Bo Ye rarely spoke while eating.

She would definitely sound noisy if she spoke at this moment.

It might even have the opposite effect.

So they quietly shut up.

She would only occasionally ask Xu Yun to try some dishes, have the servants serve her food, or have someone bring her stewed bird's nest soup or something similar.

The meal was enjoyed quite leisurely.

After finishing his meal, Xu Yun didn't stay any longer.

Jiang Ruan pulled Bo Ye along and personally escorted her to the door.

Before getting on the bus, Xu Yun gave her a complicated look, then turned and got on.

Jiang Ruan raised her hand and waved goodbye to her.

Only after the car had driven away did Jiang Ruan finally let out a long sigh of relief, relieved that she had finally seen her off.

Bo Ye, standing beside her, stared at her facial expression, a slight twitch at the corner of his lips. He crossed his arms and teased, "Finished the act?"

What is this nonsense.

Jiang Ruan glared at him: "Who's acting? I'm being very sincere, okay?"

Look at her chubby little face, she looks so cute.

A smile flickered across Bo Ye's dark eyes, but his gaze was serious, carrying a hint of coldness.

He raised his hand, his well-defined fingers pinching and kneading her small face forcefully.

He sneered, "She's hurt you so many times, and you're still so sincere with her?"

The man's tone was helpless: "Don't get sold out and then help the seller count the money."

Jiang Ruan exclaimed "Oh dear!" and pulled his large hand away: "I'm not that stupid, but she was really strange today. I can't figure out what she's thinking. Anyway, I've come to two conclusions: either she has bad intentions and wants to get close to you and me first and then kick me out, or she genuinely wants to get along with you."

Jiang Ruan spoke very seriously.

After hearing her words, Bo Ye first gave a disdainful sneer.

Then he turned around and went straight into the villa.

His back view is incredibly aloof.

Jiang Ruan's eyes widened, and she quickly chased after him.

She jogged slowly, taking small steps, following behind Bo Ye's long legs: "Hey, I'm seriously analyzing this with you."

Bo Ye glanced at her and said expressionlessly, "There's nothing to analyze."

Seeing how hard she was chasing, I slowed my pace a bit.

It was already dark outside, and the surrounding area was lit by nightlights.

One lamp after another leads to the villa.

As they walked, Jiang Ruan glanced at Bo Ye's hands hanging by his sides.

She reached out and grabbed the man's hand, successfully pulling him back.

The next second, it was grasped in the palm of a warm hand.

Holding hands, a sense of security fills the air instantly.

Jiang Ruan's lips curled into a smile; the height difference forced her to look up at the man.

Look at her sharp jawline under the moonlight, and the prominent collarbone on her neck.

Every detail is perfect for her XP.
Jiang Ruan is a sucker for good looks; she's seen all kinds of handsome men in the entertainment industry over the years.

But they are mostly forgotten as soon as they are seen.
Only with Bo Ye, after all these years, she still can't help but be captivated by his appearance.

Both her physical appearance and her soul were her greatest loves in this life.

"Didn't you ever consider the possibility that she might suddenly realize her mistakes, change her ways, and make up for all the care and love she never gave you before?"

Bo Ye coldly replied, "Haven't you heard the saying, 'Late-blooming affection is cheaper than grass'?"

Jiang Ruan: "..."

She kindly reminded him, "They're talking about their ex."

Bo Ye disagreed: "All relationships are the same."

Jiang Ruan pouted: "Alright then."

His description is really...

Finally, holding her hand, the man's voice was soft, yet every word was precious.

As the wind whispered in Jiang Ruan's ears: "What I didn't have when I was a child, I no longer crave when I grow up."

Jiang Ruan looked up, just as Bo Ye was looking down at her.

Their eyes met, and she bit her lip.

For some reason, I felt a little sorry for him.

However, the next second, his eyes were forcefully covered by a warm palm.
