Chapter 1815: Sudden Attack

Her marriage was not manipulated by the Ye family to exchange for benefits.

Finding true love was indeed a rare and precious thing for her.

Ye Jun hurriedly prepared the dowry, using money from his private account, with no need to let the Ye family know, to avoid unnecessary chaos.

Nan Jiaojiao only informed him, and he understood what it meant.

“Big brother can’t give you much confidence, but I’ll do my best with your dowry so you won’t be underestimated by your in-laws.”

Before leaving, Ye Jun pulled Nan Jiaojiao aside and softly reminded her, “The Bo family might not think much of what your brother can give, but take it as it’s from me. It’s also a form of assurance when necessary. Tell me if anything happens. Although I’m not as powerful as Bo Yanching, I can still protect you, understand?”

Nan Jiaojiao wanted to say that she really didn’t need the dowry since Jiang Yu gave her one, Lu Zhenzhen and Chu Yao gave another, and even her uncle and grandfather gave so much that it was almost like having the entire Nan family’s assets.

She wasn’t lacking money and wouldn’t be looked down upon by the Bo family.

However, the words stopped in her throat, and she swallowed them, “Got it, thank you, brother.”

Ye Jun patted her head, “Why thank me, you silly girl.”

He glanced toward Bo Yanching, who was in the car, being a gentleman without the intention of eavesdropping.

“Go on, tell Mr. Bo to drive slowly and text me once you’re home.”

Nan Jiaojiao nodded, “You drive slowly too.”

Ye Jun teased, “Say, call me brother.”

Nan Jiaojiao maintained her composure, “Brother, drive slowly.”

Ye Jun laughed again, opened the car door without immediately getting in, then held Nan Jiaojiao’s shoulder and let her go first, only getting into the car after watching her get in.

Neither of the two men drank, Han Chuan had already left, and it was Bo Yanching who drove on the way back.

He glanced sideways, seeing Nan Jiaojiao resting her chin on her hand, eyes quietly gazing out the window, with the retreating mottled lights and shadows brushing over her face inch by inch, her eyes slightly downcast and lost in thought.

“Are you not inviting the other Ye family members?”

Nan Jiaojiao blinked her eyes, “No, I don’t think it’s necessary.”

Bo Yanching ruffled her hair, “Then don’t invite them, I’ll go along with whatever you want.”

Invitations for the Ye family had actually been prepared.

Bo Yanching didn’t really want to invite that family, but it was grandma’s opinion that whether to invite or not and whether to prepare or not are two different matters, entirely depending on Nan Jiaojiao’s wishes. To avoid leaving any regrets, they might as well invite them as guests and treat them well before sending them off.

“Have you eaten your fill, or do you want to go for some noodles?”

“Didn’t you get enough to eat?” Nan Jiaojiao turned her head, “There was so much food on the table, didn’t you eat?”

Bo Yanching laughed, “You little heartless thing, launching a sudden attack, not a word of notice before taking me to meet your big brother, how could I think of eating, your brother didn’t have much either.”

“Ah… is that so?”

She glanced at him fleetingly, a small wave of belated guilt washing over her, “Actually, I could still eat. I’ll go with you to eat.”

Bo Yanching ground his molars slightly, “Never mind, not hungry anymore.”

Soon, Nan Jiaojiao understood why someone was in a hurry to get home.

In the room, brightly hung on the clothes rack was the cheongsam.

He had chased it down to the crew in the morning, washed it during the day, scented it, and as Nan Jiaojiao turned away, she bumped into his embrace.

Bo Yanching encircled her slender waist and half pushed her into the room.
