Chapter 1544: I Didn’t
“Are you a tycoon now?”
Bo Jinchuan looked down at the woman and raised an eyebrow.
“What do you want now?”
What did he mean by that?
Had she done anything before?
Shen Fanxing didn’t answer directly. “I’m just asking.”
Bo Jinchuan shook his head and said, “I’m not.”
Shen Fanxing frowned and asked, “Didn’t I give you the 20 billion yuan in Las Vegas?”
“20 billion is considered rich?”
Shen Fanxing opened her mouth but no words came out.
20 billion wasn’t a tycoon?!
What was the standard of a tycoon in his eyes?
Even she felt that she was a super tycoon now!
“20 billion is considered rich.”
Bo Jinchuan said, “Huh? So he’s not rich.”
Please shut up and stop talking!
If others heard this, they would probably be killed!
It was simply too infuriating.
“That 20 billion…”
“What are you doing? Didn’t you give it to me? Are you going back on your word?”
Shen Fanxing rubbed her chin against Bo Jinchuan’s abs. His abs were really enviable.
How could her figure be so good?
“I’m not going back on my word. I just want to ask if you have any plans for the time being. If not…”
“Yes. I have plans.”
Bo Jinchuan didn’t give Shen Fanxing a chance to finish her sentence.
Disappointment flashed across Shen Fanxing’s face.
“Fine.”
Bo Jinchuan caressed her hair and asked, “What’s the matter?”
Shen Fanxing looked disappointed, but she shook her head and said, “No.”
Bo Jinchuan looked at her for a while before his lips moved slightly. He pushed her shoulders to let her lie on the pillow.
“If there’s nothing else, hurry up and sleep. It’s late.”
Shen Fanxing exhaled and blinked at the ceiling. It was obvious that she wasn’t sleepy at all.
She tried to close her eyes, but not long after, she opened them again.
She turned to look at the man beside her, only to meet his dark eyes.
It was as though he knew that she couldn’t sleep and was waiting for her to open her eyes.
Caught red-handed, Shen Fanxing blinked and gave him an awkward smile.
“… I’m not sleepy now.”
Bo Jinchuan was speechless.
A few seconds later, Shen Fanxing said, “I’ll go to the washroom.”
A few minutes later, Shen Fanxing lay on the bed.
Not long after, she glanced at Bo Jinchuan again. Just like before, her eyes met his.
“… I’m thirsty. I want milk.”
Bo Jinchuan narrowed his eyes and sat up. He lifted the blanket and put on his slippers.
Shen Fanxing got up from the bed and asked, “What are you doing?”
“Don’t you want milk?”
Before she could finish her sentence, Shen Fanxing pressed her body against Bo Jinchuan’s back and said, “I’ll go downstairs too.”
Bo Jinchuan stood up and turned around to look down at the woman kneeling by the bed.
“Stay here obediently. It’s cold downstairs.”
“I’ll heat up the milk myself… It’s too troublesome for you.”
Bo Jinchuan snorted and bent down to get closer to her. “Don’t give me an excuse.”
Shen Fanxing felt a little guilty. A few seconds later, she pointed at her stomach and said,
“Maybe they’re too energetic.”
Bo Jinchuan scanned her stomach and pursed his lips. He didn’t know how to answer her.
She was indeed good at shirking responsibility.
“Be good and stay here!” He glared at her. Just as he was about to stand up, Shen Fanxing quickly wrapped her arms around his neck and tightened her legs.
She wrapped her arms around Bo Jinchuan’s waist.
“I don’t want to be alone in my room.”
Bo Jinchuan supported her body as she leaned her head against his shoulder. She looked like she would not come down even if she was beaten to death.
Taking a deep breath, Bo Jinchuan walked to the wardrobe and grabbed a pair of pajamas. He draped it over her and carried her downstairs.
Shen Fanxing hugged Bo Jinchuan and rested her chin on his shoulder. A faint smile flashed across her eyes.
Pursing her lips, she buried her face in his neck.
He placed Shen Fanxing on the sofa and bent to put the pajamas on her. He rubbed the top of her head unhappily.
“Wait here obediently.”
Shen Fanxing finally nodded her head.
Seeing Bo Jinchuan enter the kitchen, Shen Fanxing curled her legs on the sofa and turned on the television.
She found a random movie and hugged her legs. She rested her chin on her knees and looked ahead, but her eyes were unfocused.
She didn’t care what happened to Jiang Rongrong, but as long as she closed her eyes, she would see Shen Shanghua standing on the witness stand.
The way he trembled as he supported himself with the cane, the expression on his face, every look in his eyes, and even the frequency of his voice seemed to expand a hundredfold. It magnified in her mind, making her uneasy.
She didn’t care about the comments online, but even she wondered if she had gone overboard.
She really didn’t expect Shen Shanghua to testify personally.
She took a deep breath with her eyes closed and exhaled. Finally, she buried her face in her knees.
There was the sound of glassware knocking. Shen Fanxing looked up and saw Bo Jinchuan placing the glass of milk on the coffee table. He stood up and looked at her.
“It’s a little hot. Let it dry for a while.”
Shen Fanxing pursed her lips and nodded.
“These are all his choices. You don’t have to take it to heart. After hiding it for so many years, perhaps he has long wanted to be free. It’s just that he lacks a suitable opportunity. Choosing to stand in court today is meaningful. He has fulfilled his wish and protected you.”
Many things had happened today, but compared to the past, she had experienced many things. The reason why she was acting so abnormally today was because she had met someone and something she couldn’t let go of.
She had never participated in the first half of Shen Shanghua’s life, so she couldn’t judge his past.
In her life, especially in those few years, even the slightest bit of warmth from family was enough for her to remember forever.
Shen Shanghua’s actions today were completely unexpected.
She sighed heavily and said, “What he did in the past has nothing to do with me. It’s just that he treats me better than Jiang Rongrong…”
“That’s why you’re amenable to coaxing but not coercion. If others treat you better, you can’t wait to give your heart to them, okay?”
This woman was too easy to understand.
If others treated him well, she would repay them tenfold.
How could such a person be considered cold-hearted?
Sometimes, being cold-hearted was not a bad thing.
