Perhaps being too empathetic, she was often troubled.
Bo Qin thought for a mont, then looked at the young girl’s face and smiled, "I’ll rest here with you today. From now on, whenever I’m not busy, I’ll co over, not just on weekends."
Now that the Bo Corporation was fully organized, the projects that needed collaboration were well in hand, and he didn’t have to do everything personally.
He had expected the young girl to be very happy, but instead she looked at him with so surprise and after a pause, she expressed her concern, "Won’t this interfere with Uncle Qin’s work? You are so busy, there’s no need. I’m seldom ho, Uncle Qin forgets, I board at school."
Bo Qin had indeed forgotten.
At her words, his expression darkened slightly, and he asked Jian Dan, "Then, would you like to co back to live here? Or should I hire a driver to take you to and from school every day?"
Jian Dan shook her head, "There’s no need, Uncle Qin. My roommates in school are really nice, and I don’t want to leave them."
Moreover, living with Bo Qin day and night, she wasn’t sure if she could continue to manage her emotions well. So it was better not to, to avoid a situation where they couldn’t even remain as family, which was not what she wanted to see. Jian Dan thought this and felt sowhat sad.
The young girl had given her reasons, and naturally, Bo Qin would not insist. To him, the young girl had grown up, and this was no surprise to him.
The car beca suddenly quiet. There were plenty of guest rooms at ho, and Jian Dan invited Secretary Zhou to stay over and leave together in the morning. Secretary Zhou, Xiaoxiao, refused with a laugh. How could he stay here?
Tomorrow, he still needed to bring so docunts to Boss Bo here. He needed to go ho, and even though he was struggling to keep his eyes open from fatigue, he could still drive back with soone else at the wheel.
After arriving ho, Lin Ma prepared a late-night snack for Jian Dan, Sweet Fernted Rice Balls.
Jian Dan ate less than half a bowl and urged Lin Ma to rest. Lin Ma hadn’t seen her for two days and missed her, ntioning that a couple of days ago, there were pets on sale at the supermarket entrance, Ragdoll cats or sothing, really expensive.
Jian Dan’s eyes lit up as she listened. Seeing that Bo Qin hadn’t gone upstairs, she strolled into the living room and stood beside Bo Qin. Bo Qin set down his tablet and looked at the girl with her head hung low, chuckling, "Is there sothing you want to ask or say?"
Jian Dan’s eyes sparkled as she smiled and squeezed in to sit beside him, "Uncle Qin, I would like to have a cat, is that okay?"
Bo Qin reached out and ruffled her head, "This is your ho. You can have a cat, a dog, anything you want; you don’t need my permission."
"But this house was bought by Uncle Qin."
Bo Qin laughed, "But it’s in your na, so it’s your house."
Really, what a surprise.
The value of this place must be at least eighty million to start with. Just giving it away like that?
Jian Dan felt undeserving, even sowhat shocked, "Uncle Qin, I’m just staying here temporarily. When I graduate, I will find a job. I can’t accept this house."
"Why not?"
"Because... because I can’t take advantage of you." Jian Dan really couldn’t articulate why she couldn’t accept the house and could only co up with a random reason.
Bo Qin knew her well. She not only never used the card he gave her, but she also hardly ever used the money he provided. Clothes were sent to her seasonally only because she couldn’t refuse or choose. If she could, she probably wouldn’t accept them. She didn’t realize when it started, but this young girl began to distance herself from him.
He had taken her on this trip, hoping that the sense of distance would disappear, but unexpectedly, it had beco even more pronounced.
Bo Qin finally put the tablet aside and looked straight into Jian Dan’s eyes, "Jianjian, look into my eyes."
Unable to refuse Bo Qin’s request, Jian Dan complied, staring into Bo Qin’s eyes. Upon doing so, she wanted to look away, but not wanting to make it too obvious, she persevered.
Bo Qin’s eyes were very dark, with a lively luster within, attentive, commanding.
She could hardly bear such a gaze and was the first to shift her eyes away.
Bo Qin, however, caught her chin, forcing her to et his gaze, "Don’t evade. Tell Uncle Qin, have I done sothing wrong? Do you not feel like part of the family, which is why you are so distant? Is that why you calculate everything I give you so precisely?"
Jian Dan instinctively wanted to give a perfunctory response, but Bo Qin didn’t give her the chance. All she could do was to look down, her voice faltering, "Uncle Qin, you brought to the capital and have raised since then; that’s already more than enough. You’ve done so much."
"Is it really that much?"
Jian Dan nodded firmly, "Very much so."
Bo Qin stared at her bright eyes and smiled, "But what if I feel it’s not enough? Little Jianjian, did you use the money I gave you? Have you used my supplentary card? Have you ever asked for anything? Absolutely nothing. Jianjian, don’t you see? You are distancing yourself from . You don’t want my things, do you?"
