33: Chapter 33: Siscon 33: Chapter 33: Siscon Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio “Su Lu.”
Bo Jingshen uttered two words, his tone showing little change.
But Jiang Su on the other end was silent for a moment before he slowly spoke, “Oh, Su Lu.”
He didn’t intentionally draw out the syllables, but his usual unhurried speech, when slowed further, always sounded somewhat meaningful.
Bo Jingshen gave a low chuckle, “Hmm.”
He was already prepared to be teased by Jiang Su, but Jiang Su didn’t tease him.
After a couple of light laughs, he said, “Alright, Su Lu then.
I’ll have someone contact Su Lu later.”
Just when Bo Jingshen thought Jiang Su wouldn’t say anything more, another message came through.
“This is supposed to be your personal matter, and I shouldn’t say much, but given our years of friendship, I’ll remind you of one thing.”
“Hmm?” Bo Jingshen uttered a questioning syllable.
Jiang Su said, “Su Yukan is not the problem.
Su Yukan is just a jumping clown.
If there’s really an issue within the Su Family, it’s Su Yukan’s eldest son, Su Zhe.
Although he hasn’t been developing in Feng City, this person is intelligent, calm, and scheming, not an ordinary character.
You might want to be a bit careful.”
Bo Jingshen was puzzled, “Me?
Careful of him for what?”
Jiang Su said, “Su Zhe is an extremely indifferent person, particularly cold.
Even I don’t have a good temper, but at least I have a few friends in the circle who can talk to me.
But, Su Zhe has none.
He seems disinterested and uninterested in everything.”
Bo Jingshen asked, “So?”
Jiang Su replied, “Such a cold person is actually a complete sister complex.”
For a moment, he really didn’t know what to say.
Jiang Su gave a low laugh, “To be precise, he’s not purely a sister complex.
Su Yukan has two daughters, but Su Zhe only has a special regard for Su Lu.
The other sister, he wouldn’t even blink if she died right in front of him.
Maybe because she’s the stepmother’s child?
Anyway, when Su Lu was arranged to marry into the Gu Family, Su Zhe directly severed his relationship with Su Yukan and left the Su Family.”
really didn’t expect such a situation.
Jiang Su said, “Anyway, I’m just giving you a heads up.
“Got it,” Bo Jingshen responded.
They didn’t continue with the voice messages, but Bo Jingshen found himself somewhat distracted while looking at the files on his tablet, with low efficiency.
A while later, a voice message from Jiang Li arrived.
From the excited tone, it sounded like he was about to kneel before Bo Jingshen.
My brother said he would invest in me!
If you are willing to invest in a project, my brother will surely be willing to invest as well.”
Bo Jingshen initially didn’t want to reply, but recalling the content of the call from Xu Ning, he messaged Jiang Li back, “Since you are so grateful, why don’t you help me with something?”
Naturally, Jiang Li immediately expressed his willingness to go through with it any task.
Bo Jingshen didn’t immediately mention what he wanted, only saying, “Just wait.
I’ll let you know when I need you to do something.”
Then he lost interest in continuing with the files.
The woman beside him was sleeping so soundly that Bo Jingshen couldn’t resist lying down beside her.
It made him lose the motivation to be a workaholic.
Bo Jingshen casually placed his tablet on the bedside table, lay down, hooked his long arm around the soft and sweet woman beside him, and held onto her, quickly falling into a deep sleep.
Su Lu slept exceptionally well, waking to find that it was nearly dark outside.
“Oh my, how long did I sleep…” she muttered to herself.
As soon as she finished the thought, a deep male voice came from behind.
“Not long, just eight hours.
From 8 AM to 4 PM, people might think you had jet lag.”
Su Lu suddenly realized that she was comfortably leaning against not some self-heating large cushion but a man!
She also remembered that before she fell asleep, he went into the bathroom to take a shower.
She had been a bit nervous at the time, but in the end?
She slept for eight hours straight.
why are you still here?” Su Lu bit her lip and asked.
I already checked out of my room,” Bo Jingshen responded, not caring if her body was stiff.
He had no intention of letting her go, and the warm grip around her waist, from his arm, was ever-present since she woke up.
“Could you let go, I want to get up,” Su Lu said.
Not only did he have no intention of letting go, but he also tightened his grip, as if holding onto a pillow, his chin nuzzling her shoulder, “Since it’s already this time, why don’t we stay in bed a bit longer and get up for dinner?”
Su Lu felt a small bubble rise in her heart.
Initially stiff, her body gradually relaxed.
A lazy feeling started to spread.
This soap bubble-like feeling, called laziness, commonly appears among working adults during legal holidays.
Typically exhibited as: I’ll stay in bed for a bit longer.
Originally tense, uneasy, and even a bit shy emotions began to dissolve into a resigned surrender.
Who cares about being tense, uneasy, or shy?
Su Lu, oh Su Lu, you already agreed to be his bed partner!
With such resigned thoughts, Su Lu’s uneasiness slowly faded away.
And since she was facing away from Bo Jingshen, avoiding eye contact helped lessen the awkwardness.
Her tone gradually grew more relaxed.
“What shall we have for dinner?”
“How about I get someone to bring over a king crab?
You love eating this kind of food, might as well have it now since you’ll start your scar treatment tomorrow and then you can’t eat it.”
Su Lu nearly forgot about the scar treatment…
in all honesty, she wasn’t particularly attentive to her own face.
But he remembered everything, from booking the specialist to arranging the meetings and the treatment.
Su Lu felt a tiny bubble rise in her heart again, her voice growing softer, “I don’t particularly like eating this kind of food…”
In the current scene, in their state, the low muttering felt quite like lover’s whispers.
Bo Jingshen clicked his tongue, “Back when those small fried crab skewer vendors sold them for two bucks a skewer, you ate them as if you wanted to chew down the wooden sticks too.”
Truthfully, which girl wouldn’t like crispy and fragrant fried little crabs?
Fried to a golden crisp, brushed with a layer of spicy oil, crunching them down, releasing the unique aroma of crab.
Who wouldn’t love that!
