Chapter 1659: Still No News from Yaen Chi

“After all, he was once one of the new elites in Rongcheng City, he’s got some skills.”

Lu Zhenzhen shifted her gaze over Nan Jiaojiao’s shoulder, looked at Bo Yanching, and said meaningfully, “You agree, right, Mr. Bo?”

Bo Yanching nodded slightly, the corners of his lips curled up, neither affirming nor denying.

All of them, more or less, have suppressed Shen Shichu.

Making sure Shen Shichu could no longer have a foothold in Rongcheng City was Bo Yanching’s doing.

And people like Lu Zhenzhen only bothered Shen Shichu because of Nan Jiaojiao, tripped him up as a matter of convenience, and didn’t pay attention after Shen Shichu went bankrupt.

They overlooked that Shen Shichu left, but the Shen Family was still in Rongcheng, quietly laying low, and when they reappeared, they came back with a big move.

Back when Shen Shichu was doing well, both Mother Shen and Shen Shixuan were basking in the limelight, especially Shen Shixuan, who often relied on her brother’s influence to act recklessly. Anyone who opposed her, she would partner with others to isolate and bully, offending many. After they fell from favor, those she had bullied stepped on her when she was down, almost driving Shen Shixuan to a mental breakdown.

These matters were once amusing stories Lu Zhenzhen told Nan Jiaojiao. How they played out after that, she didn’t pay much attention to.

“When did Shen Shixuan link up with the Loo Family?” Nan Jiaojiao asked.

Lu Zhenzhen couldn’t answer, “I don’t know. I’m not familiar with the Loo Family. Isn’t Young Master Loo a childhood friend of Mr. Bo? Didn’t he share anything with you?”

Nan Jiaojiao immediately looked at Bo Yanching.

He chuckled lightly, “I haven’t asked, shall we ask later?”

Their spots were arranged at the main table, instructed directly by the Loo Family, with two other tables nearby for the bride and groom’s relatives.

When Nan Jiaojiao sat down, Father Shen at the neighboring table was clinking glasses with someone nearby. When their eyes met, he immediately looked away, his expression stiffened for a moment, losing the natural demeanor he had before.

Soon after, he took his glass and went elsewhere.

Mo Tingshen arrived late, dressed in a full suit, looking spirited. After returning from the Capital City, he made a trip to the Qiao Family, settled what needed to be handled, and addressed things openly with Qiao Man. If they couldn’t clear things up face to face, it’s no big deal. Eventually, not seeing her would erase her longing.

His wedding came to an unfortunate end.

Bo Yanching and the others didn’t pry, Mo Tingshen had briefly mentioned it last time they gathered.

His arrival naturally landed him a seat at the main table too.

“Miss Lu is here too, surprising.”

Lu Zhenzhen raised her glass to him.

“Drinking this early? Didn’t drive here?”

Lu Zhenzhen: “I did, I’ll just call a designated driver, it’s not far anyway.”

“Alright, I’ll have one with you.”

Mo Tingshen raised his glass and downed it in one go, flashing the empty glass towards Lu Zhenzhen.

He placed the glass in front of Bo Yanching, not even letting it settle before it was pushed away.

“Take it away, I won’t touch what you’ve drunk from.”

Mo Tingshen sneered, “I didn’t mess with your drink, look at you acting all pure.”

Bo Yanching kicked him in the calf.

“Hmmph~”

Mo Tingshen let out a weird shout, making everyone’s skin crawl. Bo Yanching rolled his eyes in annoyance, “Look at the occasion, you act sleazy everywhere you go.”

Mo Tingshen laughed as he sat down, “Still no word from Yaen Chi?”

“Haven’t contacted me.”

“Then I guess it’s up in the air. How long has he been gone? He’s with people from the old adviser, though he’s missing, he shouldn’t be in danger. I almost couldn’t resist checking, afraid to alert the enemy and cause him more trouble.”
