Forced marriage by a substitute bride? The spoiled son of a prominent Beijing socialite! His whole f

"She's He Yan? He Yan is actually this beautiful?"

Jiang Lu was utterly shocked; he couldn't connect the person in front of him with He Yan, whom he had met before.

"Mr. Bo, you haven't developed feelings for her so quickly, have you?"

Jiang Lu noticed that Bo Siheng's gaze remained fixed on He Yan.

So their young master is already interested in that woman?

Bo Siheng snapped out of his daze when he was asked the question.

Did he and He Yan... develop feelings for each other?

“She is my wife now, and I have a responsibility to protect her.”

Bo Siheng denied it outright, completely unaware that he had a hint of arrogance on his face when he said it.

He felt this was his way of showing respect for marriage and for He Yan.

Although Grandma always created opportunities for them.

But Bo Siheng knew that his body was counting down the days.

“I won’t have feelings for her, and I don’t have time for them. I’m dying.”

The topic suddenly turned heavy.

Jiang Lu was also overcome with sadness.

"Don't be discouraged, I will definitely find a miracle doctor to cure you."

Bo Siheng is not afraid of death; he just can't let go of his grandmother and the Bo family business that she risked her life to protect.

Even if he is truly destined to die, he will surely eliminate any future troubles before he dies.

Jiang Lu couldn't think of any words to comfort him.

But then he saw Bo Siheng's expression shift slightly, and he couldn't help but look in the direction of his gaze.

The atmosphere on He Yan's side was tense.

Downstairs, Tang Xiaoyue and the other young ladies gathered around, each with a mocking expression.

"How could anyone come to a banquet and only care about eating?"

"Some people rarely get to attend such a high-class banquet, so they have to eat their fill!"

They were playing with the cake, skewering it with forks.

In an instant, all the snacks on the table were messed up.

Zhou Yuning even reached out and slapped the plate in front of He Yan away.

"You country bumpkin, it's shameful to never have seen the world!"

A 'click' sound came.

The porcelain plate was smashed into pieces.

Bo Siheng's gaze darkened, and he immediately turned to go downstairs.

Suddenly, a scream came from below.

He turned around, a smile appearing on his lips.

She really wouldn't let herself suffer a loss.

"He Yan, what have you done?"

Before Zhou Yuning, who was standing at the front, could react, cake was smeared all over her face.

She originally intended to throw that piece of cake at He Yan.

He Yan's face darkened; she was truly angry.

"Didn't your mothers teach you to cherish food? I don't mind being a painless mother and teaching you properly."

Zhou Yuning didn't realize that He Yan was mocking them, and was still furious.

"Banquets are meant to be fun, why are you pretending to be so high and mighty!"

"Exactly, I don't know how the Bo family took a liking to someone like that."

The young ladies were still recklessly provoking others, unaware that they would soon pay the price for their harshness.

He Yan's eyes were icy cold as she grabbed Zhou Yuning's hand and shoved the cake into her mouth.

Zhou Yuning was so speechless that she rolled her eyes.

"Ugh...you..."

She was furious and tried to hit He Yan, but He Yan easily dodged her. However, she lost her balance and threw the cake in her hand directly at the face of another young lady next to her.

"Hey! Don't come here!"

The people nearby immediately moved away in disgust.

But they were standing too close together, and their panic only made things more chaotic.

Tang Xiaoyue was originally watching the commotion from the sidelines, but she ended up being the one who suffered.

He lost his footing and was about to fall into the pool.

When she saw He Yan, she wanted to grab her and lose face together with her after she fell.

Ke Heyan nimbly dodged the attack.

Instead, Zhou Yuning, who was being grabbed by her, looked terrified. Not wanting to fall, she tried to grab other people as well.

Then, a series of thuds sounded just like dumplings being dropped into boiling water.

Huge splashes of water erupted in the pool.

"Help!"

The others, startled by the commotion, finally came to their senses and frantically cried for help.

The matter escalated so much that the adults from all the families were finally summoned.

He Huijun was also called over and saw that Tang Xiaoyue was soaked to the bone.

"He Yan, what have you done?!"

"What do I look like I've done?"

He Yan didn't answer but asked a question in return, her eyes filled with indifference as if she were detached from the matter.

"You! Just wait for me!"

Seeing that He Yan was clean and tidy, while her daughter and the group of young ladies were all covered in cream, He Huijun could not help but feel angry at He Yan.

But the hatred only grew stronger in my heart.

Jiang Lu and Bo Siheng watched the whole thing from the balcony.

"This He Yan... your wife is amazing! She doesn't waste her energy at all, her mental state is incredible!"

He couldn't help but admire him.

Bo Siheng smiled faintly when he saw that He Yan was able to protect herself.

He disliked those pretentious socialites and heiresses; on the contrary, He Yan's personality was the most unique.

"Indeed...not bad."

...

He Yan did not embarrass herself at the banquet.

This made He Yiyi, who was secretly manipulating things, restless, and she couldn't help but come over to check on the situation.

He Yan thought she could eat in peace, but she found that there were still some unsettling gazes on her from all sides.

Bo Siheng noticed it too, so he took out his phone and dialed He Yan's number.

"Come to me, and no one will dare to disturb you."

"it is good."

He Yan smiled, guessing that Bo Siheng had seen what had just happened.

Soon, a waiter came and led her upstairs.

Just then, He Yiyi arrived.

She noticed He Yan enter the VIP room and hurriedly followed.

Who could be inside?

He Yiyi knew that anyone who could get into the VIP area here must not be an ordinary person, but how could He Yan know her?

She was wondering how to get in when the door suddenly opened.

The waiter, with a stern face, stopped He Yiyi.

"I'm sorry, you can't go in."

"I am He Yiyi, the special guest tonight."

He Yiyi looked arrogant, expecting to be invited inside immediately.

But the waiter still refused with a blank expression.

Jiang Lu happened to bring over the food and noticed that He Yiyi's expression was not good.

He Yiyi is quite clever; upon seeing Jiang Lu, she guessed that the person inside was likely Bo Siheng.

"Young Master Jiang, I just saw my sister go inside. I came to find her."

She used He Yan as an excuse, but a thought flashed in her eyes.

"Miss He, this is not a place for you."

Jiang Lu now realizes that He Yan is in no way inferior to He Yiyi.

He hated her hypocrisy because he disliked her and refused to marry her after learning that Bo Siheng was ill.

"Then I won't bother you anymore."

He Yiyi's eyes were full of resentment, but she had no way to force her way through.

She could only console herself that He Yan was just a substitute bride and would definitely end up in a tragic way!

...

No one bothered her, and He Yan ate with great relish.

Seeing that Bo Siheng seemed very relaxed, Jiang Lu specially opened a bottle of red wine.

"Come on, have a drink."

He had just handed over the red wine when a slender, snow-white hand reached out and snatched the glass away.

"You can't drink alcohol, and you're also taking medication, which will cause conflicts."

He Yan didn't even raise her head; with just one sentence, she forcefully restrained Bo Siheng.

Bo Siheng's eyes showed a hint of surprise.

"it is good."

Jiang Lu stared at the two of them in shock. He hadn't expected He Yan to start managing Si Heng so quickly. What surprised him even more was that Si Heng seemed quite willing to be managed.

He Yan ate quietly, and Bo Siheng didn't disturb her, but watched silently from the side.

"I'm full, I'm going out for a walk."

We need to find something to drink.

Back at the banquet venue, He Yan was immediately spotted.

This man with a full beard is Dong Jun, the contact person on the dark web.

Upon seeing He Yan, Dong Jun immediately called Jiang Lu.

"Young Master Jiang, I saw Ace!"

"Ace, the number one hacker on the dark web, is here too?!"

Jiang Lu's eyes lit up; finally, there was news.

When the hands-free call was turned on, Bo Siheng heard it too. His eyes flickered slightly, and his expression showed an unusual tension.

Have we found the successor of the legendary healer?
