"Miss, who did this? Do you need to help you call the police?"
Qin Yan glanced at the storeroom. In a place like this, there were practically no valuables. The Ritz-Carlton hadn’t installed caras here either. Daring to act in such a public place, Qin Yan was certain she wouldn’t find the person responsible.
"No need. I’m fine."
"Aunt Lin Man, please don’t tell anyone about this, okay?"
The cleaner didn’t know what Qin Yan intended, but still nodded. She reached out and took the phone from the wall.
It was funny because the phone belonged to her.
Qin Yan’s fingertips moved slightly, logging into Weibo, where Bo Yunshen and Lin Man were trending topics.
It was blowing up, especially the part where Bo Yunshen hit Shen Chun, edited into a short video. The man’s face was grave, his eyes as deep as the sea, full of overwhelming anger.
Qin Yan stood for a mont at the storeroom door, her heart gradually turning cold, inch by inch sinking into a frigid cellar, never to see daylight again.
Qin Yan’s fingers trembled as she dialed a number.
The phone rang a few tis before the other party answered: "Sis?"
The man’s voice had no hint of sleepiness, which made Qin Yan hesitate: "You’re not asleep?"
"With such big news about Bo Yunshen and Lin Man, those bastards are living too well, too happily. The whole world knows, and I feel terrible, can’t sleep."
Qin Yan stayed silent, and Qin Mingchuan finally realized that, after all, Bo Yunshen was his brother-in-law, and the marriage wasn’t fully resolved yet. Qin Mingchuan hurriedly tried to nd things: "Sis, are you... are you okay?"
Qin Yan felt a warm sensation in her eyes, almost unable to hold back her tears: "I’m fine."
"Sis, I’ve brought up inheriting the Qin Group with Dad and Mom. When can you co to work at Qin Group?"
"They didn’t agree, did they?"
"They gave the things, what’s mine is mine, and I can give it to whoever I want! I wasn’t seeking their approval, just notifying them." Qin Mingchuan’s mood was low.
Qin Yan was surprised, in her youth matters, she was very much like Jiang Yunwan, and transferred her resentnt over matters onto Qin Mingchuan.
Qin Shicheng and Jiang Yunwan, one despicable and one lowly, yet the child raised bore a mind like delicate glass, pristinely free of any blemish.
"Besides, the Qin Group under my managent will eventually decline. Sis, if you co to Qin Group, you’ll be the CEO. Although the money isn’t as much as Bo Yunshen’s, at least you won’t have to bow to anyone, or see anyone’s face."
"Sis, get a divorce. We want nothing from the Bo Family, let’s clearly sever ties. Staying in the Bo Family will only cause more pain for you."
Qin Yan’s nose felt sour, yet she let out a heavy breath as if relieved from a great burden.
"Mingchuan, I can go to Qin Group, but I have one condition."
"What is it?"
Five minutes later, Qin Yan arrived at the Ritz-Carlton entrance, bumping into Xu Lin as he walked towards her. Seeing Qin Yan, Xu Lin’s mouth opened: "Qin... Mr. Qin?"
Qin Yan looked at Xu Lin with a half-smile, speaking softly: "Secretary Xu, I’m no longer an employee of the Bo Group!"
"You called Mr. Qin mistakenly, didn’t you?"
Qin Yan sarcastically remarked, walking straight out of the hotel door. There were no taxis at the Ritz-Carlton entrance, so Qin Yan walked to the intersection and flagged down a car, reporting the address of the Bo Mansion, leaning back in the taxi, she closed her eyes.
Xu Lin watched Qin Yan leave, stunned for quite a while, his mind filled with images of Qin Yan.
Red-rimd eyes, disheveled hair, clothes in disorder — Xu Lin had a flash of bad premonition. He instinctively took out his phone to call Bo Yunshen.
Bo Yunshen received the call just as he closed his eyes.
As soon as the phone rang, Bo Yunshen opened his eyes and answered it.
"What’s up?"
Xu Lin hesitated, stamring to speak: "Bo... Mr. Bo, I saw Mr. Qin."
Bo Yunshen’s brows twitched, he had sent Xu Lin to the Ritz-Carlton to investigate the incident...
Xu Lin saw Qin Yan there?
"Mr. Qin didn’t look well." Xu Lin took a deep breath, cautiously speaking: "Her clothes were very disheveled, she seed like she had been crying..."
Xu Lin spoke very tactfully.
But who was Bo Yunshen? The aning in Xu Lin’s words, certainly wasn’t beyond Bo Yunshen’s comprehension.
His heart suddenly clenched as if strongly gripped by soone.
"What did you say?"
Bo Yunshen’s voice was cold, Xu Lin also panicked: "Mr. Bo, do... do you want to give Mr. Qin a call?"
Bo Yunshen abruptly cut the call, reflexively standing up from the hospital bed.
His movent woke Qin Yinyin.
"Dad, where are you going?"
Bo Yunshen gently touched Qin Yinyin’s head, speaking in a low voice: "Yinyin, I have so things to do, I’m going to find your mom. You stay at the hospital, okay?"
"Dad will find soone to take care of Yinyin."
Qin Yinyin was very obedient but for the first ti, she shifted the topic.
"Dad, today I saw the news at Uncle Gu’s place."
"So late, are you going to find Aunt Lin Man?"
Qin Yinyin’s eyes glowed darkly, a layer of light glittered at the bottom, appearing soft and tender, but actually, they were brimming with water.
Bo Yunshen fell silent.
Qin Yinyin stubbornly held back her tears, quietly speaking: "Dad, it was Aunt Lin Man who took away, she left on that dimly lit street, I couldn’t find mom..."
Suddenly she cried, fear stricken, afraid that Lin Man would really do as she said, dragging her to be fed to the big bad wolf, and also afraid... of Bo Yunshen leaving.
Qin Yinyin sobbed uncontrollably: "Dad, don’t go looking for Aunt Lin Man, okay... She’s a bad person."
"Dad..."
Bo Yunshen’s breath seed cut off by Qin Yinyin’s words, his handso face appeared grim and cold.
"I’m not going to find Lin Man."
"But in the afternoon, you also said you had things to do."
However, Bo Yunshen was indeed with Lin Man, and they made it to the headlines.
What made Yinyin most upset was that he didn’t co to pick her up until after four o’clock.
She was young, not understanding the ways of the world, yet aware of one thing — that is, Bo Yunshen loved Lin Man more than he loved her and mom.
And she hadn’t seen mom for a long ti.
Qin Yinyin counted on her fingers, softly saying: "Dad, can you call mom, I want to see her."
Ask Qin Yan to co?
Qin Yan wouldn’t co. With sothing like that happening, no woman would like to et anyone.
Bo Yunshen hesitated for a mont, softly said: "I’ll go find your mom, I’ll bring her back."
Bo Yunshen imdiately found a nurse in the hospital for Qin Yinyin, then called Xu Lin back to the hospital to keep watch, before leaving.
He went first to Xing Yue Bay but didn’t find Qin Yan.
At that ti, Qin Yan arrived at the Bo Mansion. Sumr days brighten early, the sky was already starting to light up when Qin Yan arrived, Bo Yuanshan had already risen.
