Chapter 218 Love-brain is really unreliable!
Bo Yuchen also looked in their direction, his gaze lingering on them for a moment. Perhaps he couldn't see anything clearly because of the dim light and the snow, so he said nothing and walked straight towards them.
As he approached, the pale yellow glow of the street lamp gradually made the man's outline clearer, including his face.
A 48-year-old man, no matter how well he takes care of himself, will have some marks carved by the years, but he does not look old at all. Instead, the elegant demeanor accumulated over the years makes him look more mature and mellow.
The contours of his eyebrows and eyes are exactly the same as Bo Jinran's.
Shi Xing had seen Bo Jinran, who was in his forties, and he was very similar to Bo Yuchen in front of him, both in temperament and appearance.
However, Bo Jinran, who is in his forties and has been lonely for half his life, feels even more lonely, while Bo Yuchen is obviously much more gentle.
Shi Xing couldn't help but lower his head, trying hard to control his emotions, but he just pinched Qi Chenyan's hand even tighter.
Qi Chenyan: “…”
He leaned his head close to Shi Xing's ear and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Shi Xing shook his head and whispered, "It doesn't hurt."
"But it hurts."
Qi Chenyan chuckled softly, his warm breath brushing against her earlobe which was gradually cooling down in the snowy night. Shi Xing suddenly came back to her senses and quickly loosened her grip on her fingertips, "I'm sorry, I..."
Qi Chenyan pinched her palm and scratched the tip of her nose with his other hand, "It's okay."
He curved his lips: "Be good, relax."
Shi Xing looked at the warmth in his eyes, and the lump in his throat eased a little: "Yeah, I know."
The intimate gestures between the two did not attract Bo Yuchen's attention. He walked up to Bo Jinran, his eyes passing over the outlines of the two young men who were talking with their heads lowered, and turned directly to Bo Jinran: "Why did you come back so suddenly?"
The tone was filled with surprise.
As soon as he arrived, he heard the driver say that the young master's car was parked here. Bo Yuchen thought that Bo Jinran had asked someone to come back to get something, but he didn't expect that it was Bo Jinran who came back by himself.
He looked at the 18-year-old boy in front of him with amusement, "Why, are you still not sure about what I said yesterday?"
Bo Jinran didn't expect Bo Yuchen to come back so early. Didn't he say that he would be back very late after working overtime at the company?
He frowned and cleared his throat, "I have nothing to worry about. I came back for something else."
He looked away uncomfortably, looking at Qi Chenyan and Shi Xing, signaling them with his eyes:
What to do now?
Don’t just talk about love, get down to business!
Love brain is really unreliable!
"Oh?"
Bo Yuchen then followed his gaze and looked at the two people beside him, his eyebrows raised slightly, "These two are..."
Because Shi Xing lowered his head again and was wearing a hat and scarf, it was difficult to see his appearance at a glance, so the first person Bo Yuchen saw clearly was Qi Chenyan.
Qi Chenyan met his slightly scrutinizing gaze calmly, his eyes calm and he did not avoid or give way, his upright body did not move at all.
Bo Yuchen's eyes moved slightly.
This kid is quite similar to the kid named Qi Muci from the Qi family, but his temperament is a little different.
A sharper jawline and a calmer aura, this calmness is much stronger than Qi Muci's shifty eyes.
Bo Yuchen raised his eyebrows slightly and asked Bo Jinran, "He's from the Qi family. Is he here to settle a score with you?"
Bo Jinran: “…”
He was silent for two seconds: "It is indeed the Qi family, but they are not looking for me to settle accounts."
"If you're not looking for you, then are you looking for me?"
It wasn't him who threw Qi Muci back to Kyoto.
Bo Yuchen was amused. Qi Chenyan had already spoken, politely but not timidly. His voice was clear and his manners were graceful. "Hello, uncle. My name is Qi Chenyan."
"Qi Chenyan?"
Bo Yuchen nodded thoughtfully. It turned out to be a member of the Qi family.
He looked again at Shi Xing who was lowering his head beside Qi Chenyan. The hands they had been holding had already explained their relationship.
"This is your girlfriend?"
he asked curiously.
Shi Xing bit her lip lightly, and finally raised her eyes, looking straight at Bo Yuchen.
At that moment, Bo Yuchen's always calm and gentle expression suddenly cracked. His eyes suddenly became deeper and sharper. He stared at Shi Xing's face, which was 70% similar to An Mingyao, and his voice was sharp: "Who are you?"
"I……"
Shi Xing paused. She originally wanted to pretend to be An Mingyao, but now she suddenly saw Bo Yuchen, and for a moment she didn't know whether she should continue acting.
Originally, their plan from the beginning was to expose An Mingyu and test Bo Yuchen.
She directly said that An Mingyu killed An Mingyao and colluded with An Mingyi, exposing An Mingyu's true face and letting Bo Yuchen understand what kind of person An Mingyu is.
In this way, we can find out what Bo Yuchen is thinking.
See if he really doesn't care?
Even if An Mingyao is so cruel and has no feelings for him and is just using him, can he still accept it? Does he really like An Mingyao that much?
But now...
Shi Xing bit her lip and hesitated. Qi Chenyan noticed her dilemma and was about to answer for her, but Bo Jinran suddenly spoke and asked the bodyguards around him to step back.
After the bodyguards retreated to a place where they could no longer hear their conversation, Bo Jinran said, "She is my sister."
He looked straight at Bo Yuchen and dropped a heavy bomb on this snowy night, which made everyone, especially Bo Yuchen, go blank.
Bo Jinran said, "Her name is Bo Yunxing. She is my half-sister. She traveled here from thirty years later."
The air was frozen, the snowflakes flying in the sky seemed to stop, and the picture was instantly still.
Qi Chenyan curled the corner of his mouth. In fact, when he met Bo Yuchen, he had the same idea, which was very straightforward.
After all, it doesn't matter if Bo Yuchen is not here.
But Bo Yuchen is back, and acting in front of someone like Bo Yuchen would only backfire.
Because Qi Chenyan knew very well that all the tests were in vain, and Bo Yuchen probably knew what kind of person An Mingyao was better than they did.
He was able to bring An Mingyao to the Bo family and tell Bo Jinran about his arrangements. Would he not have investigated An Mingyao thoroughly?
They were acting in front of Bo Yuchen. Even if they were telling the truth, what if Bo Yuchen attacked them in order to protect An Mingyao and conceal her past?
In this time and space, they are not yet able to fight Bo Yuchen.
So, it’s better to tell the truth.
The truth may be hard for people to believe, but at least it won't put them in danger.
Bo Jinran actually thought the same as him on this point.
Only Shi Xing is not mentally prepared to be honest.
Because she had no expectations of her parents, and not everyone could easily believe in such a thing as traveling through time and space.
Bo Yuchen's pupils were indeed trembling, and he didn't even react for a few seconds, thinking that he had lost his hearing.
After he came back to his senses, he looked at Bo Jinran in surprise, his eyes complicated and strange, "Is the pressure of studying too much?"
Bo Jinran curled his lips slightly and snorted coldly: "If I said that she was the daughter of you and that An, would you send me directly to the Fifth Hospital?"
He looked at Bo Yuchen's rare look of shock and shrugged, "But what can I do? I'm telling the truth. She is indeed the daughter of you and that An."
After saying that, he glanced at Shi Xing, who was also stiff, and said, "Sister, stop being dazed and call daddy quickly."
Bo Yuchen: “?”
Shi Xing: “!”
A few seconds later, Bo Yuchen was the first to come back to his senses. The composure he had cultivated over the years was almost breaking, and his voice was naturally filled with anger: "That's ridiculous! Bo Jinran, no matter how dissatisfied you are, you wouldn't make up such a thing..."
Before he could finish scolding her, Shi Xing spoke softly. Her voice was barely audible in the snow and wind, but it was exceptionally sweet and sweet. She called him, "Dad."
The sound of snow hitting the umbrella suddenly became louder and louder, making it difficult to hear clearly.
Bo Yuchen's grip on the umbrella handle suddenly tightened, until his knuckles turned white. He turned his head slightly stiffly, meeting Shi Xing's gaze again, his voice faltering. "What did you call me?"
Shi Xing looked at him with clear eyes. Snowflakes fell on her eyelashes. She blinked lightly, her wet eyes looking particularly aggrieved. "Dad."
She looked directly into his trembling pupils and repeated softly: "I call you daddy."
