At the same time, Qiu Chen held onto his phone as his father's furious roar came through the receiver: "Look at what you've done! The entire internet is cursing you now!"

Qiu Chen gritted his teeth: "Dad, don't worry, do we still have a way to fight back against Su Xingyu?"

"Fight back?" Father Qiu sneered, "What else can we do now? Not only have you offended Su Xingyu, you've also dragged Bo Jingzhou into this!"

He paused, his tone filled with fear. "Bo Jingzhou has already taken action. Qiu's industry's stock price fell 47% this morning. It's all because of you, a rebellious son! If you mess with the Su family, how is that any different from declaring war on the Bo Group? I've said it before, your quarrel with Su Xingyu is minor, but don't make it a big deal. We can't afford to offend them!"

Qiu Chen's back teeth were clenched until they ached. "Isn't it just Bo Jingzhou? What can he do to us?"

"What do you know!" Qiu's father panted on the other end of the phone. "What is our Qiu family in the imperial capital? We are just begging for food under Liz! Now you have angered Bo Jingzhou, and Liz is far away and can't help. Do you think we still have a way out?"

Qiu Chen frowned, "With Liz here, she won't ignore us, after all..."

Father Qiu interrupted him coldly, "Shut up! Liz is in such a precarious situation right now because of Bo Jingzhou! She just called me and scolded me, saying we were being inconsiderate and ruining her plans! Let me ask you, did you send someone to do what happened to Gu Xuan?"

Qiu Chen was stunned. "I also wanted to show my loyalty to Liz and help her get rid of future troubles."

He sent someone to the hospital to inject Gu Xuan with poison, hoping to quietly resolve the problem for Liz so that she would look at the Qiu family differently. However, he didn't expect that Bo Jingzhou's men would find out...

The worst thing now is that Liz doesn't appreciate it, so all his efforts were in vain from beginning to end, and he ended up being in a difficult situation.

"You acted on your own without Liz's orders. That's what pissed her off the most!" Father Qiu's voice was exhausted. "She now suspects you're trying to seize power and has already kicked our Qiu family out of the inner circle! I'm telling you, from now on, you're not allowed to act on your own without my permission!"

The phone was hung up hastily and Qiu Chen froze in place.

......

After a while, Su Xingyu came to the set to find Qiu Chen, wanting to see this down-on-his-lose dog. However, Qiu Chen was not there. Su Xingyu curled his lips and suddenly felt bored.

He turned and tried to leave, but stopped when he passed the studio.

Qin Wanshuang stood in front of the camera in her costume, her long skirt outlining her exquisite curves, making people unable to take their eyes off her.

She was reciting her lines, and the teardrop mole at the end of her eye shone softly under the light, which made Su Xingyu's heart skip a beat.

Didn't he come here to tease Qiu Chen? He thought so in his heart, but for some reason he couldn't move his feet.

When the director shouted "Cut", Qin Wanshuang turned and walked towards the rest area, and suddenly saw Su Xingyu beside her.

She was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Xingyu, why are you here?"

"Just passing by." Su Xingyu raised his eyebrows and pretended to be nonchalant. "I came to see Qiu Chen's grandson by the way. Who knew he ran away?"

He paused, his eyes falling on the ends of her hair wet by the rain, "Do you want me to take you there?"

Qin Wanshuang seemed not to have expected him to say that, and her eyes widened slightly.

The staff on the set all stopped what they were doing, their eyes darting back and forth between the two of them.

Su Xingyu's heart began to beat fast, and the lines he had prepared were stuck in his throat. He was just waiting for her to refuse and find a way out.

"Okay." Qin Wanshuang suddenly smiled and reached out to adjust the hem of her skirt. "Then thank you very much."

"..." Su Xingyu was stunned, suspecting that he had heard it wrong.

Is the opportunity coming again?

Besides, his carefully prepared confession has not yet been carried out. Does this mean that he still has a chance?

It looks like the younger sister is her plan A and he is plan B?

After sitting in the car, the two chatted. Qin Wanshuang asked him about his recent physical condition and was also concerned about whether the online public opinion had affected him. Her words were full of concern.

The corners of Su Xingyu's mouth kept curling up and he couldn't suppress them no matter what he did. He saw that he was about to be hooked into a black carp.

Su Xingyu slapped himself and finally managed to get the corner of his mouth down.

Qin Wanshuang was stunned for a moment, and slightly widened her eyes, as if asking what was wrong?

Su Xingyu smiled and said, "Nothing, I think a bug just crawled onto my face... By the way, I told you last time that I opened a restaurant with delicious food. I happen to be free today, can we go together?"

Qin Wanshuang couldn't help laughing, and agreed for the first time: "Okay."

At this moment, she turned her head to look out the window, her gaze suddenly paused, staring at the figure on the corner of the street.

"Stop the car." Qin Wanshuang suddenly spoke.

Su Xingyu frowned: "What's wrong? Didn't you say you were going to eat?"

"I told you to stop!" Qin Wanshuang's voice suddenly rose.

Su Xingyu was confused, but didn't dare to say anything. He quickly moved the car closer and stopped.

However, as soon as the car stopped, Qin Wanshuang pushed open the door and rushed out.

Su Xingyu unbuckled his seat belt and quickly got out of the car to chase after him.

Fortunately, he had long legs and quickly caught up with Qin Wanshuang.

"What's wrong? Did you see something?" Su Xingyu asked.

Qin Wanshuang looked around and said, "I thought I saw Xiaoman just now, but when I turned the corner, she disappeared."

Qin Wanshuang leaned against the wall and gasped: "Xiaoman..."

Su Xingyu was stunned, and looking at Qin Wanshuang's appearance, he began to murmur in his heart.

Xiaoman?

My younger sister said that Qin Wanshuang has been in a bad mood recently because of Wen Xiaoman. If he acts as a middleman and brings the two sisters together... wouldn't that be a great achievement?

......

In Repulse Bay, the living room was piled high with shopping bags. Su Xingyu dumped the last bag of imported snacks onto the coffee table. "Little sister, eat them. I bought these for you."

Before Su Yutang moved, Gu Xuan and the four little ones had already started to divide the snacks. They each took a few bags of snacks and went to the side.

Su Xingyu frowned as he finished reading. After the people left, he rubbed his hands and sat down opposite his younger sister. "Little sister, Fourth Brother bought you the latest model of Apple mobile phone. I'm sure you like it."

Su Yutang tore open a pack of strawberry-flavored biscuits and said, "You're being so attentive for no reason. Tell me, what do you want me to help you with?"

"It's nothing, I just have something small to ask you. Given our relationship, you will definitely tell me, right?" Su Xingyu asked with a raised eyebrow.

"What's the matter?" Su Yutang took a bite of the biscuit.

"That's... Wen Xiaoman," Su Xingyu pretended to play with the dinosaur stickers on the table nonchalantly. "The girl who came here last time, do you know where she lives?"

If he really couldn't find anyone, he wouldn't come to find Xiaomei. Wen Xiaoman was arranged by Xiaomei. Except starting from Xiaomei, there is no way to find Wen Xiaoman's residence.

Su Yutang paused, "Why are you asking this?"

"I'm just curious!" Su Xingyu said, "Why doesn't that girl come over now? Why don't you give her a call and ask her to come over and play?"

"She doesn't have time." Su Yutang put down the biscuits and picked up the wet wipes to wipe her hands. When Su Xingyu handed it to her again, she didn't want to eat it anymore.

"She doesn't have time, so why don't you go see her?" Su Xingyu asked, "Besides, no matter how busy she is, there's always time for a meal, right?"

He thought, as long as someone shows up, the next time Wen Xiaoman leaves Repulse Bay, he can quietly follow her on the road and find out where she lives, right?

Su Yutang's mind was as clear as a mirror, "Are you asking on behalf of Tan Wanshuang?"

Su Xingyu shook his head and denied it: "No, I just want to know... What are you thinking!"

Su Yutang said bluntly: "I won't tell you."

Su Xingyu frowned: "Why? I won't eat her!"

Su Yutang analyzed: "Xiao Man is timid, and you are a big star. People know you wherever you go. Getting too close to you will only bring trouble to her."

Su Xingyu was furious: "Little sister, are you really going to be so disloyal?"

Su Yutang said calmly: "I am too loyal, so I can't tell you. I have to think about Xiaoman."

"Can't you tell me the address for her sake? Am I the kind of person who would sell her whereabouts?"

"Whether it is or not, you know it yourself." Su Yutang turned around, his eyes firm: "In any case, I can't give you the address."

"You!"

Su Xingyu gritted his teeth and used both soft and hard tactics: "If you continue like this, Fourth Brother will get angry and leave."

Unexpectedly, Su Yutang said indifferently: "Thank you for the food, take care."

“…” Su Xingyu froze in place, watching his younger sister’s expressionless face.

"Okay, okay, if you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me, you stingy guy."

Su Xingyu didn't get the address from Su Yutang, so he had to think of other ways.

After leaving Repulse Bay, Su Xingyu went to the hospital again.

Passing the corner of the hospital corridor, she saw Miss Chu stealthily making a phone call.

Her voice came: "Don't you just want the treasure of the Bo family? I can help you."

Su Xingyu frowned.

He originally wanted to ask his third brother Su Jinyao about Wen Xiaoman's whereabouts, but he heard these earth-shattering words when he passed by.

He didn't mean to eavesdrop. The key point was that such a big matter involved the Bo family. There was only one Bo family in the entire imperial capital.

He didn't want to get involved, but after all, Bo Jingzhou had just helped him solve Qiu Chen's problem...

"Tell me, what else do you want me to do?" Lady Chu lowered her voice even lower, but it was clearly carried into Su Xingyu's ears by the wind.

Half an hour later, Su Xingyu's car returned to Repulse Bay again.

Su Yutang saw him go and come back, and couldn't help but frowned: "Fourth brother, you haven't given up yet?"

Su Xingyu hurried in: "Who asked you about Xiaoman? I came here to tell you something important. Miss Chu is hooking up with Xiao Zhenting!"

Su Yutang was confused: "What?"

Then, Su Xingyu recounted the whole story.

Su Yutang asked doubtfully, "How do you know it's Xiao Zhenting on the other end of the phone?"

"Who else could it be but him? He's the only one in the entire imperial capital looking for treasure like crazy!"

Su Yutang frowned, "But Xiao Zhenting is still in prison. They said he never left, and it's even more impossible for him to contact the outside world. It's unlikely to be him."

Su Xingyu: "No matter who it is, be careful and don't fall for that woman's honey trap. I asked my third brother, and she's been very close to Bo Sitian recently. Who knows what evil she might be up to? If she can deceive Bo Sitian, she can uproot the Bo family for the treasure."

Su Yutang frowned: "I know, I will take care of it."

......

The carved iron gate of the Bo family's old house slowly opened in the twilight, and Lady Chu's hand holding the car door trembled slightly.

"Sitian, why did you suddenly call me here today?"

She was staying well in the hospital, but Bo Sitian said he would take her somewhere and went through the discharge procedures, and ended up coming here.

Bo Sitian stood in the corridor, his watch visible from the cuff of his custom-made suit. He looked at Miss Chu's pale face and said calmly, "The doctor said you don't have much time left... You've been too lonely in the hospital all by yourself. You know Zhenting's condition now. I've inquired about it, and he'll never be able to leave. You have no one at home, only me as your friend. It's my responsibility to take care of you, so I just took you in."

Lady Chu's heart skipped a beat.

But she looked around, clearly feeling uneasy: "Isn't Madam Bo... home?"

Bo Sitian led her inside and said as they walked, "She's not here. She moved back to her parents' house a long time ago."

"Are you separated?" asked Lady Chu.

Bo Sitian said calmly, "Well, she's probably still mad at me. She called her a few times during the process, but she hung up as soon as she heard my voice."

Lady Chu stepped forward and asked, "Is it because of me?"

Bo Sitian paused, "It has nothing to do with you."

He spoke slowly, "We've been married for so many years and have had many problems. She's not only unreasonable, but also very controlling."

"I originally wanted to let her calm down, but as time went on, I felt that it was better to separate like this. It's much quieter to be alone at home."

He smiled bitterly, and that smile contained complex emotions that Lady Chu could not understand.

Lady Chu clenched her fingers, remembering what Xiao Hengyu had said on the phone: "Use your beauty and weakness to make Bo Sitian trust you completely and get the secret map of the mechanical device."

She mustered up the courage to step forward, "Si Tian, ​​have you ever thought about..."

"What have you thought about?" Bo Sitian turned around and his eyes fell on her face.

Lady Chu looked at his suddenly serious eyes, and the words she had prepared suddenly got stuck in her throat.

Those words about "starting over" and "making up for regrets" seemed pale and powerless in the face of Bo Sitian's bottomless gaze.

"I forgot for a moment..." She smiled awkwardly, twisting her fingertips unconsciously.

"It's okay, you can think about it slowly." Bo Sitian's voice returned to calm. He walked to the sofa and sat down, pouring a glass of water and handing it to her. "By the way, I got back all the things you left at home when you left. I've left them here with you."

Lady Chu's heart skipped a beat.

"After all these years, you still keep it for me?"

Bo Sitian: "Well, there are relics left by your mother in it. It would be bad to throw them away, but I don't know where you are, so I didn't send it to you."

Beauty Chu's eyes were slightly moist: "Si Tian, ​​thank you."

"You're welcome, it's just a small matter."

"Sitian."

After a while, she took a deep breath, walked over to sit next to him, and deliberately let her body rub against his arm. "I'm very happy to be with you in the last days of my life."
