Bo Jingzhou was just about to eat the takeaway when his cell phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was Mrs. Bo calling.

Bo Jingzhou frowned, hesitated for a moment, and finally picked up the phone.

The call was connected, and Mrs. Bo's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Jingzhou, did you see the message I sent you? I have booked a table and sent you the restaurant location. Come over for dinner quickly."

Bo Jingzhou frowned slightly and subconsciously refused, "Mom, I haven't finished my work yet, maybe..."

When Mrs. Bo heard this, her voice immediately rose an octave: "Work, work! All you do is work. Don't you even have time for a meal?"

Bo Jingzhou said patiently, "Mom, I have a very important project recently and I really can't leave."

Mrs. Bo was relentless. "You won't die if you don't work for a day. I don't care. You must come today. If you don't come, I'll die in front of you!"

When Bo Jingzhou heard this, he immediately said in a deep voice: "Mom, can you please stop being so unreasonable!"

Mrs. Bo on the other end of the phone was silent for a while, then she said in a tearful voice: "Jingzhou, Mom just wants you to spend more time with me. We haven't had a meal together for a long time. You have been busy since you came back from abroad. Mom really misses you..."

Bo Jingzhou felt more and more annoyed as he listened to his mother's crying. He remembered that she had just been frightened a few days ago and had just recovered from a serious illness. She probably hadn't recovered mentally yet.

"Okay, I'll be there right away." Bo Jingzhou finally agreed.

Mrs. Bo finally smiled and said, "Okay, son, I'll wait for you to come over."

After hanging up the phone, Bo Jingzhou put the takeaway aside, picked up his coat, and hurried out of the office.

At this moment, in the restaurant's luxurious private room, soft lights were shining on the exquisite dining table.

Mrs. Bo hung up the phone contentedly, then held Xixi's hand and said apologetically, "Xixi, the last time you came to my house, I didn't let you see Jingzhou, and you got scared. It's my fault."

Sissi forced a smile and said, "Auntie, don't say that. This is not something you can control."

In fact, she still felt a little uncomfortable in her heart. The last experience was not a pleasant one, but she knew very well that the power and wealth of the Bo family could not withstand Mrs. Bo's enthusiasm. No matter how scared she was, she wanted to continue to hold on to Bo Jingzhou, the big tree.

If I could really be with Bo Jingzhou, what would it matter if I gave birth to a child for him?

As for Mrs. Bo...

Mrs. Bo patted Xixi's hand gently and continued, "Xixi, you are a good child. Auntie has always liked you. Jingzhou is just too busy with work and sometimes doesn't know how to care about other people's feelings. Please bear with me."

Seeing how polite Mrs. Bo was to her, Xixi felt a little intimidated, but she nodded and said, "Auntie, a man should focus on his career. I don't mind."

Mrs. Bo smiled and said, "That's good. You are really sensible. Auntie specially arranged this meeting so that you can strengthen your relationship. When Jingzhou comes later, you must behave well and take the initiative to talk to him so that he can know more about you."

Xixi was a little nervous, but she said firmly, "Okay, Auntie, I will try my best."

Su Yutang also brought her four little ones to the restaurant for dinner.

As soon as they entered the restaurant, the four little guys couldn't wait to surround Su Yutang, their eyes sparkling with excitement.

"Mommy, are you celebrating today?" Erbao asked, looking up.

Su Yutang nodded and said, "Yes, Mommy's first day of work has been successfully completed, so I brought you here to celebrate. Life should always have a sense of ritual."

Upon hearing the news, the four little guys were overjoyed and jumped for joy.

"Great, Mommy is awesome!"

"We can have a good meal!"

"Mommy, I'll get you something to eat."

After saying that, the four little guys picked up their plates and went to eat excitedly.

This is a high-end buffet restaurant. Except for the VIP boxes, people can walk around the hall freely to pick up their food. The variety of delicious food is dazzling.

Dabao was the most steady. He took small steps and scanned the food area with focused eyes. He took only a little of each item and reminded his younger brothers: "We only take as much as we can eat. Don't waste it." He always remembered his mother's teachings to cherish food.

Erbao was as cheerful as a little rabbit, skipping and jumping in front of the food stalls with sparkling eyes. He would put some on whatever he liked, and soon the small plates had piled up into a small hill.

Sanbao was very thoughtful. As he took the piece, he whispered, "Mommy likes this. I want to get a piece for Mommy."

He specially picked out some exquisite little cakes for Mommy.

The picky eater Sibao followed behind, looked around, frowned and only picked some meat.

After a while, the four little treasures returned to their seats with plates full of food.

"Mommy, this cake is super sweet, try it." Sanbao handed a spoonful of cake to Su Yutang's mouth.

Su Yutang looked at the sensible Sanbao and touched his head: "Sanbao is great, he knows not to waste and still thinks about mommy."

"Mommy, you can have a taste of mine too." Erbao said incoherently with his mouth full.

Su Yutang took a bite and smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed into slits.

"Mommy, have you seen Daddy today?" Dabao asked suddenly.

Su Yutang paused for a moment, then replied, "I saw it."

Sibao asked again: "When will you bring Daddy home, Mommy?"

Su Yutang paused for a moment, and then she slowly said, "This...will take some time. Be good, and you'll be able to see Daddy soon."

After hearing this, the four little guys nodded and said in unison: "Then we will be good and not let Mommy worry."

Su Yutang looked at the little ones' sensible appearance, feeling both relieved and guilty. She gently touched the four little treasures' heads and said, "My dears, you are so good. Mommy knows that you all want Daddy very much, but some things are not so easy. Mommy needs time to solve them."

Erbao blinked and said, "Mommy, we all understand. Mommy needs time to date Daddy. I understand."

Sanbao pulled Su Yutang's clothes and said in a milky voice, "Mommy, we believe in you. You can definitely bring Daddy home."

"......" Su Yutang secretly broke into a sweat.

Bo Jingzhou hurried to the restaurant, pushed open the door of the box, and saw Mrs. Bo sitting there with a smile on her face, and a strange woman sitting next to her.

He frowned slightly, and when he realized something, a hint of displeasure suddenly rose in his heart.

Mrs. Bo saw her son coming and stood up happily and introduced him, "Jingzhou, you're finally here. Come and sit down. This is Xixi."

Mrs. Bo wanted Bo Jingzhou to sit next to Xixi, but Bo Jingzhou chose the farthest distance and pulled out a chair to sit down.

A hint of awkwardness flashed across Xixi's face, but she still stood up politely and called out, "Hello, Mr. Bo."

Bo Jingzhou just glanced at Xixi indifferently, his expression still very cold, and asked Mrs. Bo: "Mom, what are you going to do today?"

Mrs. Bo knew she couldn't rush things, so she quickly said, "Jingzhou, Xixi is the daughter of Mom's friend. Have you forgotten? You met when you were little, and she called you brother back then."

Bo Jingzhou remained silent, obviously having lost all memory of the incident.

Mrs. Bo had no choice but to continue, "Xixi, come stay at our house for a few days. As her brother, you should also take Xixi out to play and see the scenery of our imperial capital."

Bo Jingzhou refused without hesitation and said, "I'm busy. Coming here for dinner is already a waste of my time."

Mrs. Bo's face darkened and she said, "Jingzhou, you can't be busy with work all the time. You should also relax and communicate with others more."

Just then the waiter brought the dishes. Bo Jingzhou lowered his head and scooped a spoonful of soup. He ignored Mrs. Bo's words and didn't take them to heart at all.

Seeing this, Mrs. Bo winked at Xixi.

Xixi understood what he meant and immediately approached Bo Jingzhou, saying in a sweet voice, "Mr. Bo, how about we add each other on WeChat first, and then we can chat privately?"

Bo Jingzhou raised his head and looked at her expressionlessly.

Over there, Erbao finished a plate of food, touched his still empty belly, picked up a fat prawn, hummed a little tune, and wandered around contentedly looking for ice cream.

When passing by a private room, Erbao glanced inside inadvertently.

This sight made Erbao's eyes widen, and he slammed on the brakes instantly.

Erbao lay down by the door and looked inside through the crack.

In the private room, the old witch was sitting with her father Bo Jingzhou and Xixi having dinner together.

Xixi was dressed up beautifully, with a flattering smile on her face, and was chatting happily with her daddy.

Erbao's heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself that something was wrong.

"It seems the old witch is still scheming and is trying to match Daddy with that woman out there!"

Erbao knew something was wrong, so he turned around and ran back in a hurry without even bothering to take the ice cream.
