Chapter 1022: Meeting My Future Father-in-law Early

“You really know how to talk!”

Bo Mu gave him an annoyed look and warned before getting in the car, “Keep your mouth shut.”

Bo Yanching mouthed clearly: Henpecked husband.

Bo Mu pretended not to understand, got into the back seat, and slammed the door shut.

Then, feeling his behavior was inappropriate, he rolled down the window and said to Nan Jiaojiao, “Jiaojiao, get in the car quickly.

You must be hungry, let’s eat together.”

“Okay.”

Nan Jiaojiao replied and, once Bo Mu rolled up the window, immediately jumped to Bo Yanching’s side and tugged at his sleeve.

He naturally wrapped an arm around her waist and led her over from the front of the car.

“Why didn’t you tell me your dad is Bo Mu?”

“Didn’t I say?

He’s a swimming coach.”

“That doesn’t really explain it!”

There’s a big difference between a gold medal coach and an average swimming coach.

Seeing her so anxious, Bo Yanching teased, “Don’t be nervous, you did well.

Just think of it as meeting the father-in-law in advance.”

“Who’s going to…”

She just started to speak when she glanced cautiously inside the car.

Bo Yanching pinched her fingertips, conveniently making her swallow the rest of her words.

He opened the car door, protected her as she got in, and then walked around to get in himself.

At Huiji, they booked a large private room that could fit three tables.

After dinner, Bo Mu didn’t linger and took his young athletes back to the team.

Curious, Nan Jiaojiao asked, “Where does uncle live?

Doesn’t he return to the Bo Family?”

Bo Yanching’s eyes dimmed a bit, but his expression remained unchanged, “He doesn’t live with the Bo Family.

He has his own place, and I rarely see him when I return to the Capital City.”

Nan Jiaojiao nodded, half understanding.

If she pressed further, it would lead to questions about the Bo Family, so she wisely stopped.

“What about you, where do you live?”

Bo Yanching looked down at her, and Nan Jiaojiao realized her question was too intimate.

“I have an apartment, but I haven’t lived there in a long time.

It’s troublesome to clean, so I’ve been staying at a hotel these days.”

Nan Jiaojiao silently moved closer into his arms, “Should I…

go have a look?”

Bo Yanching gazed at her intently, “Tired?

Want to take a nap?”

She nodded accordingly.

Bo Yanching drove to the hotel, which was only three streets away.

It was easy to guess he came back specifically for something concerning Bo Mu.

The fuss she made last night was indeed unreasonable.

Thinking about this, her demeanor softened again, letting him hold her hand.

When they entered the hotel, the heating was on high in the lobby, and Bo Yanching unbuttoned a few buttons of her coat.

Inside the room, he took off her coat and hung it on the coat rack by the door.

He picked her up, placed her on the shoe cabinet, and kissed her.

“Bo Yanching…”

“Hmm?”

Nan Jiaojiao bit her lip shyly, “I didn’t come here to do this kind of thing with you.”

“I know,” he shamelessly admitted once the door was closed, “I can’t help myself.”

Nan Jiaojiao pushed him away, jumped down from the shoe cabinet, and found a pair of slippers to put on.

Bo Yanching followed her and went to boil water, cleaning the cups and pouring half a cup of warm water.

He came to Nan Jiaojiao’s side, picked her up with one hand, walked a few steps, and, upon reaching the sofa, sat down with her in his arms.

“I came to the Capital City mainly to deal with my dad’s affairs.

I haven’t been back to the Bo Family.

Last night, when you saw me at the restaurant, it was because my grandpa asked me to go by pretending to be my dad’s old friends.

I planned to leave shortly after and happened to run into you.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s heart skipped a beat, and she frowned slightly, “I’ve already apologized to you.

Why are you still lecturing me?”
