Chapter 1020: Bo Mu

Nan Jiaojiao watched him walk over, and just as he got close, Bo Yanching reached out to hold her.

Nan Jiaojiao quickly placed her hand in his palm.

Her sudden obedient gesture surprised Bo Yanching.

He was afraid she had encountered something unpleasant, so he swallowed the words he had long prepared and first showed concern: “What’s wrong?”

Nan Jiaojiao lowered the corners of her mouth, “I’m sorry.”

Bo Yanching raised his eyebrows in surprise, “Apologizing to me?”

“About yesterday,” Nan Jiaojiao subtly moved her finger in his palm, her little finger just caught between his two fingers.

With her head bowed, she said in a muffled voice, “I had secrets I kept from you too.

I shouldn’t have pushed you.

I didn’t actually want to know that much, it’s just that my emotions got in the way.

After I left you, I regretted it.”

Bo Yanching smiled slightly, “Did you figure it out while dancing in the square?”

Nan Jiaojiao suddenly looked up, “How did you know?”

“Your senior brother sent me a message to scold me and happened to send me a picture of you.”

Nan Jiaojiao frowned with disdain, “He’s always talking too much!”

Bo Yanching actually wished she was surrounded by talkative people, willing to tell him everything about Nan Jiaojiao.

He wouldn’t mind spending money for even a blurry photo.

But now was not the time to discuss that.

“Jiaojiao,” he said softly, “come with me to a place.”

“Where?”

“Prison.”

Nan Jiaojiao was taken aback, her voice unconsciously rising, “Did you do something wrong?”

“Not me.

It’s my dad.

I’m going to pick him up today as he’s getting released at two in the afternoon.”

Nan Jiaojiao grabbed his wrist and glanced at the time; it was already close to one o’clock.

Without saying another word, she said, “Then why are we still dawdling?

Let’s go pick him up.”

Bo Yanching pulled her back, “Some things are hard to explain quickly.

I’ll tell you in the car.”

“Okay!”

Nan Jiaojiao always thought the Bo Family had very few members.

But occasionally, when Yaen Chi and the others mentioned Bo Yanching, she learned that it wasn’t that they had few members, but that only Old Lady Bo lived in Rongcheng City.

Bo Yanching was there to accompany her, while the rest of the Bo Family resided in the Capital City.

She had never asked Bo Yanching about his parents.

When she saw Bo’s father, dressed in a red tracksuit, coming out, Nan Jiaojiao’s first reaction wasn’t to compare how much this face resembled Bo Yanching’s, but there was a genuine sense of familiarity, as if she’d seen him somewhere before.

“Dad.”

Bo Yanching walked over and took the black shoulder bag from Mr.

Bo, “All evidence has been submitted.

You were framed; the person has already been arrested.

Later, I’ll have the lawyer tell you everything.”

Bo Mu nodded slightly, “I’ve heard.

You worked hard for me this time.”

Bo Yanching was slightly annoyed, “Why say it’s hard work!”

Bo Mu said, “I actually don’t mind, but those young athletes shouldn’t be wronged.

They are just starting, and if they’re tainted with the stigma of using banned substances in competitions, they won’t be able to clear their names for life.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s heart skipped a beat.

Bo Mu.

It’s Bo Mu.

The national swimming team’s gold medal coach!

No wonder Nan Jiaojiao found him familiar.

A couple of years ago, during the Olympics, Nan Jiaojiao accompanied Lu Zhenzhen, glued to the TV every day.

They didn’t understand much, but as Lu Zhenzhen said, watching young athletes openly wearing swim briefs was a rare chance, and in their lifetime, there wouldn’t be any other situation apart from swimming competitions allowing them to stare at men’s physiques without it being illegal.

Nan Jiaojiao didn’t remember many of the young athletes but the coach left an impression.

Now seeing him in person, Nan Jiaojiao recognized him immediately.
