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

"Mom, what are you saying!"

He Yiyi realized that her emotional expression was too obvious.

She was a little annoyed, but more so angry.

“Yiyi, before, it was you who didn’t want to marry into the Bo family, and Mom completely respected your opinion. Xiaoyan was also forced to marry. She had just returned home when Mom forced her to get married.”

Su Wan didn't notice the irritation in He Yiyi's eyes, and she also felt a little guilty when talking about He Yan.

She was afraid that Yiyi would feel wronged, which is why she was so eager to get He Yan married.

"Mom, it was clearly my sister who took it by force. She didn't want to, did she?"

Looking at the room full of designer brands, He Yiyi felt resentful and spoke without thinking.

"She must know something to be so eager to get married."

"No, Yiyi, Mom is afraid that the Bo family will insist on marrying you."

Su Wan is very naive; she has been overprotected.

Often, she won't think much about the obvious reasons.

"Mom thinks you could marry someone better."

She was extremely protective of her daughter, whom she had cherished for twenty years, and was afraid that she would suffer even the slightest grievance.

Thinking about how much she owed He Yan, Su Wan couldn't help but remind He Yiyi.

"Yiyi, Mr. Bo is Xiaoyan's husband. You should keep your distance from him. Otherwise, people will talk badly about the He family, and your father will be angry too."

"Mom, I know my limits and I won't do anything reckless."

He Yiyi suppressed her resentment and could only pretend to be obedient to coax her mother.

She never expected that her mother would change just because she accepted He Yan's gift.

"I still want to support the He family's pharmaceutical factory. I don't want to get married, nor do I want to become someone else's family member in the future."

He Yiyi hugged Su Wan and acted coquettishly, just like before.

Su Wan's heart softened instantly.

"My dear daughter, Mommy knows."

night.

He Yiyi took the newly developed medicine to the Bo family manor.

She didn't want to wait any longer; she had to let Master Bo know that he was the white moonlight he had been longing for.

The butler was very surprised and hurriedly reported it to Master Bo.

"He Yiyi came to deliver medicine so late at night?"

Bo Siheng was handling official business in his study when he heard that she had come, which surprised him.

"Does Madam know?"

He felt inexplicably guilty, afraid that He Yan would be angry.

The butler shook his head.

"The lady is still in her room and hasn't come out."

"I'll go out and see."

Bo Siheng couldn't refuse, since it was he who had asked He Yiyi to make the medicine.

In the garden, he saw He Yiyi, who had dressed up specially and looked quite dainty.

He frowned but remained unmoved.

“Miss He can have someone deliver the medicine; she doesn’t need to make the trip herself.”

“This is different. I don’t trust anyone else to take your medicine.”

He Yiyi felt indignant and resentful when she saw that Master Bo was standing so far away from her, as if he was afraid that she would get involved.

She looked up at Mr. Bo, then through him at the magnificent manor behind her.

So beautiful, no wonder it's the Bo family, the richest family in the world.

Under the lights, it appears even more majestic and dreamlike.

He Yan is probably inside now, enjoying the servants' service and living a leisurely life.

But she was supposed to live there!

Bo Siheng frowned, feeling displeased with He Yiyi once again.

That look that disgusted him appeared again.

"Now that the medicine has been delivered, Miss He, please return home. The night is chilly with the dew, so please don't catch a cold."

Bo Siheng was not happy that He Yiyi had come to his door.

He maintained good gentlemanly manners, which was already a sign of tolerance.

"Mr. Bo, are you afraid that my sister will be angry?"

He Yiyi noticed the impatience in Bo Ye's eyes and became somewhat anxious.

She sighed dramatically, looking at him as if she were suppressing all her grievances.

"I thought our relationship was different. I was just so worried about your health that I lost my composure. I never expected you to be so reluctant to see me."

Bo Siheng frowned, feeling a little guilty.

He thought that He Yiyi had saved him, but he wished it hadn't been her.

"Ms. He, thank you for your concern, but it's getting late."

Bo Siheng watched her standing in the moonlight, but his heart was not stirred. This unfamiliar and vague feeling made it impossible for him to connect He Yiyi with the person from that night.

"Next time, let's choose daytime for delivery."

He couldn't completely and firmly reject He Yiyi because he felt guilty.

After seeing the person off, he returned home.

As I went upstairs, I felt inexplicably guilty.

"Are you done?"

When He Yan saw Bo Siheng enter the bedroom, she just smiled and continued to sit at her desk reading her book.

"Well, it's getting late, you should get some rest."

Bo Siheng observed her reaction but couldn't discern anything.

He concealed the fact that He Yiyi had come because he didn't know how to explain it.

He Yan already knew.

She also knew that Bo Siheng was keeping his distance from He Yiyi.

That'll do.

The two had different thoughts and were both hiding their emotions.

……

the next day.

When Bo Siheng is at the company, he has a hard time concentrating.

He understood that he had different feelings for He Yan, the kind of feelings that suggested a marital relationship.

He was still bothered by He Yiyi's life-saving grace.

Bo Siheng was annoyed and wanted to avoid the situation.

"Xiao Yan, are you free to have dinner together tonight?"

He called He Yan because he didn't want to dwell on it anymore.

Because I've already made my choice.

"Okay, I'll contact you when I finish work."

He Yan agreed readily.

However, just as she was about to leave work, she suddenly received a call from Old Man Zhong.

"Nanqing, don't hang up yet. I really don't mean to bother you this time, but I have a very tricky case that I can't handle. Could you come with me to take a look?"

Zhong Changfeng looked serious; he had only come to her because he was truly out of options.

He Yan glanced at the time; she had arranged to have dinner with Bo Siheng.

"But I have something to do."

She frowned, not wanting to break her promise.

Zhong Changfeng was already preparing to head to the patient's home.

He was also very anxious when he heard Nan Qing refuse.

"Nanqing, that patient is in critical condition right now, and I'm not 100% sure I can do it. I know you'll have a solution, so can I repay that favor in advance?"

"Okay, send me the address, I'll head over now."

He Yan heard the urgency in his voice and knew the seriousness of the situation.

Fortunately, the He family's pharmaceutical factory had a Chinese medicine kit, so she compiled a complete set of tools.

Before driving, she sent a message to Bo Siheng.

Sorry, something urgent came up and I can't go for dinner.

After that, she rushed to her destination and didn't have time to check her phone.

Bo Siheng was about to pick up He Yan when he received her message, and he subconsciously frowned.

"Could it be that He Yan saw it last night, and that's why she's bothered by it?"

He wanted to reply to the message to explain, but then he received a call from his grandmother.

"Aheng, I just heard that the old master of the Li family is seriously ill and on his deathbed. Go and see him for me."

"Grandpa Li is dying? Okay, Grandma, I'll go right now."

Bo Siheng knew the situation was serious, so he immediately notified Yu Cheng to rush to the Li family.

The Li family is a scholarly family and has a good relationship with the Bo family.

As the heir of the Bo family, Bo Siheng should have been present to offer his condolences; this might have been the last time he saw him.

the other side.

He Yan and Zhong Changfeng met outside the Li family mansion.

"You've come at the perfect time, let's go inside quickly."

"Ah."

He Yan nodded, picked up her medicine box, and went inside with him.

The situation was critical, and Zhong Changfeng did not have time to explain Nan Qing's identity to the Li family. The Li family did not suspect anything and only thought that He Yan was Professor Zhong's assistant.

The butler ushered the two inside and was about to close the door.

At that moment, Bo Siheng's car arrived.

"Mr. Bo, you've come to see our old master too?"

The butler went up to greet them respectfully.

Bo Siheng got out of the car, his eyes deep and his expression grave as he nodded.

"I'm here on behalf of my grandmother to visit Mr. Li."
