"Stop letting that woman play the ghost. When a person dies, it's like a lamp going out." Yan Ke gritted her teeth. "Since you care about that woman so much, how can you tolerate this imposter offending her like this?"

Lu Bozhou didn't react much to his mother's words.

Yan Ke saw that he had no reaction.

She gripped Lu Bozhou's arm tightly. "Didn't you always like her? Otherwise, you wouldn't have even bought a wedding ring set with hers."

Lu Bozhou initially didn't want to pay attention to his mother's words, but upon hearing this, his brows furrowed suddenly. "What did you say?"

Yan Ke was taken aback. "What?"

"What did you just say?" Lu Bozhou's eyes were cold, and his bloodshot eyes, coupled with his chilling gaze, made him look very gloomy.

"I bought her one of my wedding rings too?" Lu Bozhou repeated, "Who told you that?"

Yan Ke felt a little scared when she saw Lu Bozhou's look.

It felt like I was seeing that madman from back then again, the madman who went insane after Jiang Mian died.

Yan Ke still remembered that when Lu Bozhou learned that Jiang Mian had been called over by her, scolded and disciplined, and then went to the hospital, she soon showed signs of premature labor and never came out again.

These were eyes with bloodshot veins, no, even redder than that, as if they were stained with blood.

It looked as if it might shed blood at any moment.

Stare at her, stare at her without blinking.

It felt like he could tear her to pieces at any moment.

Yan Ke still remembers what she said at the time.

'I didn't want this either! I never imagined she couldn't even carry a child properly! I only said a few words to her! Who knew she'd be so fragile!'

"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm your mother! I was in labor for a whole day and night giving birth to you, and you're looking at me like that because of some other woman?!"

Those words seemed to awaken Lu Bozhou. Although his eyes were still bloodshot, he didn't say or do anything more to Yan Ke.

He simply turned and left, like a trapped beast.

After that, Yan Ke rarely saw him, except at the Lu family banquets during holidays.

She almost never saw him. He never went back on his own initiative, and if she and Lu Hong didn't take the initiative to look for him, they would basically never see him.

Even if I take the initiative to find him and we meet, we don't exchange more than a few words.

In the past two years, Lu Bozhou has recovered quite a bit, but he is still as indifferent as ever.

Yan Ke even couldn't remember what he looked like when his eyes were stained with blood.

until today.

Yan Ke's lips trembled slightly, and her voice weakened, "I... I didn't say anything wrong. Xu Yawei has a ring that's the same as your wedding ring. And I heard her say it herself."

"She told you herself that her ring and mine are a set?" Lu Bozhou asked sternly.

"She told Jiang Mian herself that she saw her wearing the same women's wedding ring as herself. Xu Yawei said she liked this set of rings, so she bought the women's version. She never expected that your wedding rings would be from this set."

Yan Ke frowned, somewhat puzzled. "Didn't you choose this set because Xu Yawei likes it?"

Even Yan Ke thought that he deliberately bought this set because Xu Yawei liked it, so that it could match the one she had.

So... what about Jiang Mian? What would Jiang Mian think?

She was always perceived by everyone as a stand-in, and it turned out that even her wedding ring was a substitute for someone else's ring.

Lu Bozhou felt a sharp pain in his heart.

In that instant, he suddenly remembered the look in Jiang Mian's eyes when she saw the wedding ring on his finger.

At that time, he wasn't sure if she was the one in her eyes, so he thought she was because he was still wearing his wedding ring from his previous marriage even though he was already married to her.

Looking back now, she remembers the look in his eyes when she saw the wedding ring on his finger.

What was she thinking at that time?

Do you think he is still devoted to Xu Yawei and can't forget his old feelings?

Just thinking about it made Lu Bozhou feel a slightly metallic taste rising in his throat.

"Get out." Lu Bozhou's voice was hoarse.

Yan Ke was taken aback. "What?"

"I told you to get out...!" Lu Bozhou roared.

Yan Ke was stunned for a moment, and Lu Hong was about to get angry.

Song Xun had been waiting outside the door, carefully listening to the sounds inside. Upon hearing this commotion, he rushed in.

"Sir, Madam! The boss has been very busy with work lately and is in a bad mood. He may have offended you. Please leave now. Let me see you out!"

As Song Xun spoke, he put his arm around Lu Hong and Yan Ke's shoulders, and with a hint of coercion, pulled the two of them out.

Lu Hong glared at Song Xun, his face ashen. "Song Xun, how dare you! You dare kick us out?!"

Song Xun was paid by Dingsheng, so he was naturally not afraid of Lu Hong.

Out of respect, he spoke rather politely, "You both know what kind of personality and temper Bo Zhou has, why wait until he says something definitive? I will try to persuade him, but you two shouldn't add fuel to the fire."

Lu Hong took two deep breaths before he could finally calm down.

He pulled Song Xun aside and asked in a low voice, "Song Xun, tell me the truth, what exactly is he trying to do? His current state... is he...?"

At this point, Lu Hong's voice rose a few decibels, but he quickly regained control and lowered it again.

He squeezed out the words through clenched teeth, whispering, "Does he... need to be hospitalized again?!"

Song Xun was quite worried about Lu Bozhou's recent condition, but he was certain about this point.

"Don't worry, both of you. Although Bo Zhou's condition isn't great right now, I can assure you that it's not at the point where he needs to be hospitalized."

Lu Hong listened to this with skepticism, "Are you sure?"

Song Xun nodded. "I'm 100% sure."

Lu Hong frowned. "Fine, I'll trust you this once, but if anything happens to him and he needs to be hospitalized, and you don't mention it, I'll hold you responsible!"

Lu Hong is, after all, Lu Bozhou's father, so it's normal for him to speak with such authority.

But Song Xun remained unmoved, nodded, and saw the two downstairs.

When Song Xun returned to the elevator and went upstairs, he couldn't help but sigh softly.

He was certain that Lu Bozhou's current condition was not at the point where he needed to be hospitalized, nor would it.

Song Xu had just called him yesterday and said, "Bo Zhou is currently on edge, holding on by sheer willpower. He has something he needs to do while holding on. Once he finishes it, that tension will snap..."

When Song Xu mentioned this, Song Xun felt a chill run down his spine. "...What will happen?"

Song Xu sighed softly and said, "It will definitely collapse, both mentally and physically. It will definitely collapse, it will definitely fall seriously ill, so you must guard it well."
