He knew it!
Who would give up the entire Bo Consortium for a woman?
Madam Chen immediately went up to welcome her, but before she reached the door, the eager smile on her face froze when she saw the person. Then, she smiled and said,
“Master, Madam is back.”
Bo Sichen held Lou Ruoyi’s waist and ignored Madam Chen’s solicitousness. He walked into the living room expressionlessly.
When Old Master Bo saw the two of them, his face darkened.
“What are you doing here?!”
Bo Sichen and Lou Ruoyi walked into the living room but they didn’t take a seat. Instead, they stood opposite the Old Master with a sofa between them.
Bo Sichen looked at the Old Master calmly and asked, “Jingchuan is here?”
Old Master Bo frowned. “No! Why? Where did he go?”
He had waited for him here for two days. He knew that he had left the hospital silently, but he didn’t know that he hadn’t heard from him until now.
Bo Sichen frowned and pondered for two seconds before saying,
“I’m fine.”
Lou Ruoyi frowned and scanned the entire living room. Her eyes darted around shrewdly before she pursed her lips.
This brat.
Now, she had gone missing!
It had been a long time since Bo Jinchuan contacted the couple.
So, hadn’t he heard about what happened in the company?
How was that possible?!
“Ahem… about the company…”
Old Master Bo coughed lightly. Just as he was about to mention the company to Bo Sichen, Bo Sichen hugged Lou Ruoyi and turned to leave.
“Let’s go.”
Lou Ruoyi smiled and wanted to give her handsome husband a hundred likes!
This move of ignoring him was simply too satisfying!
The old man paused and his eyes widened.
Seeing that the two of them were about to leave, Madam Chen was a little confused and hurried forward.
“Master, Madam, you’ve just returned. How can you leave so soon? Old Master must have something to say, right?”
Lou Ruoyi frowned and narrowed her eyes at Madam Chen, who was standing in front of them. She said coldly,
“Judging from your tone, we can’t leave today?”
Madam Chen had always known that Lou Ruoyi had a strong opinion of her and was used to her attitude. She straightened her back and said seriously,
“Madam, Old Master has something to say.”
The way her parents straightened their necks and spoke was exactly the same as Granny Rong’s disgusting face in television dramas.
Lou Ruoyi sneered and walked out of Bo Sichen’s embrace.
“Okay, then I won’t leave.”
Only then did Old Master Bo relax slightly.
Only then did Madam Chen smile in satisfaction. “Then Master and Madam, have a seat first. I’ll make tea for you.”
Lou Ruoyi sneered and did not speak. She pulled Bo Sichen to the sofa and sat down.
Bo Sichen allowed his wife to drag him to the sofa. His face remained calm.
Under such circumstances, the old master did not expect his usually silent son to take the initiative to mention the shareholders’ meeting.
Although he wasn’t facing Bo Jinchuan directly, Bo Sichen was his father after all. No matter how much he indulged his son, he wouldn’t let his son give up the inheritance of the Bo Consortium so easily.
Therefore, if she talked to him, she would have more allies and give Jinchuan more pressure. It might make it easier for him to compromise.
“Do you know about the shareholders’ meeting?”
Bo Sichen said calmly, “I heard rumors.”
Old Master Bo snorted coldly and pretended to be confused.
“This isn’t a rumor!” He said coldly. “This is indeed my idea. I’m old and there will be a day when I have to retreat. I have to hand the Bo Consortium to someone trustworthy!”
Even Lou Ruoyi, who had never asked about the company’s matters, could hear the obvious threat in his tone.
She couldn’t help but roll her eyes. How arrogant!
Bo Sichen nodded calmly. “The decision is in your hands. You can decide everything.”
“You…”
Old Master Bo was almost angered to death by Bo Sichen’s attitude and words!
How could he be so casual about the inheritance of the company?
“Back then, you did it for…” The old man stopped abruptly. He glanced at Lou Ruoyi and pursed his lips.
“If you didn’t give up the right to inherit the Bo Consortium back then, perhaps Jinchuan wouldn’t have encountered such a situation today! Don’t you feel guilty for not giving your son any advantage after living for so long?”
Bo Sichen leaned against the sofa, his slender fingers resting lightly on his well-ironed pants as he frowned.
“Why should I feel guilty? The position of the heir of the Bo Consortium isn’t something he really cares about. He can naturally fight for whatever he wants. I won’t participate or reject him. I think this is what he really wants me to do as his father.”
The old man held his breath and panted heavily!
“Jingchuan… Jingchuan has become like this because of you!”
Bo Sichen pursed his lips lightly. “It’ll be troublesome if it doesn’t follow me.”
“Pfft…”
Lou Ruoyi almost burst out laughing. Her words could choke someone to death.
Old Master Bo was speechless from anger.
Bo Sichen’s meaning was obvious.
The Bo Consortium was dispensable to them.
Whether he gave it or not, it didn’t matter to them.
Old Master closed his eyes, his heart and mind filled with disappointment towards Bo Sichen.
This son was clearly so outstanding back then, but in the end, he disappointed her again and again.
“So the Bo Consortium is so insignificant in your heart.”
“It’s not that I don’t value it, but I don’t value it as much as you do. Unless it’s necessary, the Bo Consortium is naturally the most impossible to give up.”
Lou Ruoyi pursed her lips. Back then, Bo Sichen had given up the inheritance rights of the Bo Consortium and everything to chase after her. She would never forget it.
She had once felt guilty for losing him, but she had let it go after that.
Knowing that he had sacrificed too much for her, she wanted to invest more feelings in him.
Moreover, reality had proven that smart and capable men were outstanding and charming wherever they went.
If not for Old Master’s decision to hand the Bo family over to Jingchuan a few years later and let them return to the Bo Consortium to help Jingchuan, they wouldn’t have returned to the Bo Consortium.
In the end, the old man tried the same trick again. He wanted to use this method to trap Jingchuan.
“Do you really intend to give up the right to inherit Jinchuan?”
Bo Sichen looked up at him and said, “The decision lies with you. You can give it to whoever you want. But to use the company to force Jinchuan to compromise… Dad, you’ve underestimated your grandson.”
