“Even you are mine. No matter what, you’re suitable.”
Shen Fanxing looked up at him. Bo Jinchuan raised an eyebrow as he watched her smile seductively.
“Are you going to vote or not?”
Bo Jinchuan nodded and said, “I’ll vote for you after a kiss.”
As he spoke, his handsome face pressed down on him.
Shen Fanxing blushed and placed her hand on his shoulder to prevent him from approaching her.
“Stop fooling around!”
Grandma was right. Men didn’t care about the occasion!
Sensing that something was amiss with the atmosphere in the living room, Shen Fanxing turned her head calmly and leaned against the sofa. Her gaze swept across everyone.
Of course, Old Lady Bo was happy to see this. She said with a smile,
“Look at how close the two of you are. Why don’t you just get married?”
Lai Rong nodded and said, “Madam is right. But everyone in the family treats Miss Fanxing as their Young Madam now.”
Lady Bo smiled and looked at Shen Fanxing with satisfaction. “I have good taste. When I first met Fanxing, I felt that she was the most suitable for Jinchuan.”
Shen Fanxing blushed at the old lady and Lai Rong’s compliments.
“Grandma…”
“Look, she’s shy.”
Lady Bo pointed at Shen Fanxing and teased her happily.
Everyone in the living room burst into laughter.
Yuan Sichun smiled as well, but her expression was as stiff as it could be.
“…No matter what, a wedding can’t lack ceremony. Sister-in-law, have you decided on the gown for the engagement? I think your wedding will be very grand, right? Why don’t you tell me the size and I’ll get someone to customize a gown for you? Oh right, there’s also Grandma and Auntie. I’ll help you make the gowns, right?”
Lou Ruoyi turned her head and asked, “You mean… the brand you’ve established?”
“Yes. Auntie, help me publicize it.”
At this moment, Old Lady Bo said, “It’s not publicity. I don’t want to ruin your reputation.”
“Grandma, you’re still young. You’re still charming and your aura is above others. Everyone is envious of you. How could you ruin your reputation? I’ll call Liang Chenyi over to help you. Of course, there’s also Sister-in-law. Let Liang Chenyi be the stylist for the engagement.”
The topic suddenly shifted to Shen Fanxing. Her tone was full of superiority.
Shen Fanxing sat there calmly and said, “There’s no need. I’ve already chosen my engagement gown. As for the stylist, I’ve already found a suitable candidate.”
Yuan Sichun was a little disappointed. She turned to look at Lou Ruoyi and said with a smile, “That’s a pity. I had a selfish motive to ask Sister-in-law to help me publicize it. However, Sister-in-law, is the stylist you’ve booked reliable? Liang Chenyi is now an internationally renowned stylist. When the time comes, the engagement party will definitely be unprecedented. There won’t be any flaws… People nowadays will nitpick. Don’t let others find fault with you.”
“Based on your tone, if I don’t use Liang Chenyi, there’s no need for me to hold this engagement ceremony.”
Shen Fanxing’s attitude wasn’t good. She didn’t have much patience for Yuan Sichun’s pretense.
Hearing this, Yuan Sichun’s face turned pale. “… That’s not what I meant. I just want you to have fewer regrets for your engagement with Brother Bo.”
“Thank you.”
Shen Fanxing replied coldly before falling silent.
Yuan Sichun pursed her lips and didn’t say anything. There was a faint smile on her face, and she looked stubborn.
In this living room filled with the Bo family, it made her seem even more lonely and aggrieved.
It was as if everyone in the Bo family was bullying her.
Old Master Bo had always cared about his reputation. Seeing this, he felt embarrassed. What was the big deal about their family bullying a little girl?
She opened her mouth and was about to say something when Old Lady Bo said,
“Alright, that’s all for today. I’m tired.”
Old Master Bo turned to look at her. The old lady narrowed her eyes at him and he pursed his lips.
She coughed lightly and said, “Yes, I’m tired. Let’s disperse today.”
“Fanxing, Jinchuan, do you want to stay tonight?”
Bo Jinchuan stood up and said, “No need. I have to work tomorrow. It’s not convenient here.”
With that, he pulled Shen Fanxing to the door and helped her put on her coat and scarf.
Yuan Sichun stood behind them with a dark expression.
Shen Fanxing sensed Yuan Sichun’s gaze, but she didn’t look at her.
However, when Bo Jinchuan went to get the car, they were still alone.
“I saw you outside the city gates today. Did you gain anything?”
“Yes, it’s a huge gain.”
Yuan Sichun smiled and said, “That script that everyone despises?”
Shen Fanxing frowned and turned to look at her. “You’re staring at me?”
Yuan Sichun didn’t say anything and smiled faintly.
“Miss Yuan, I really can’t understand. Even if I’m not with Ah Chuan, do you think he will choose you? What’s the point of pursuing me from Hong Kong to Ping Cheng?”
Yuan Sichun sneered. “I’m probably indignant. I’m the eldest daughter of the Yuan family and grew up with Brother Bo. Even though he doesn’t have any romantic feelings for me, they’re the most compatible couple in everyone’s eyes. How can I be indignant when a woman with no background like you suddenly interfered?”
What could she give Brother Bo?
Love him? But I think I can love him more!
You were just an accident. Shen Fanxing, without you, Brother Bo has no choice. We will let nature take its course.
“Also, the losses I’ve suffered from you make me unable to eat or sleep in peace. Every time I think of that feeling, it makes me gnash my teeth in anger. I just want to get back at you. We can only be enemies.”
Shen Fanxing sneered and said, “I think I’m quite innocent. I attracted an enemy like you just by dating and getting married. I had no intention of interacting with you, but I was dragged into the battlefield.”
“Who asked you to find Brother Bo? It’s not me, but someone else. A man like him is destined to have too many women around him. You have too many enemies.”
Shen Fanxing looked at the car that was slowly approaching and smiled. “Although I really don’t want to bother with your unreasonable stubbornness, I can’t just wait to be beaten if you insist on provoking me. I’ve never taken the initiative to cause trouble, but I’m not someone who’s afraid of trouble.”
Shen Fanxing walked down the stairs and said, “Miss Yuan, I have to give you a final piece of advice. Take back your blind confidence and recognize the reality in front of you. You’re not very powerful, and others are not weak. Most importantly, not everyone wants what you can give. If you’re unwilling to be my enemy… you have to pay the price for everything. Don’t expect me to be kind.”
