Chapter 370: The Bo Family Is Not That Simple

The door opened, and Nan Jue raised her eyebrows in surprise, “You’re earlier than I thought, but still slow enough.

It’s been three days, and you just realized I’m here.”

“No, I knew last night.”

Nan Jiaojiao walked inside, Nan Jue handed her slippers, then went to the kitchen and brought out two cups of water.

“I don’t have milk tea here.

If you want some, I can have someone send it over.”

There was a fruit plate on the coffee table, and fruit peels were thrown in the trash bin—prepared by Nan Jue herself, pierced with toothpicks, as if she was just waiting for her to come.

Nan Jiaojiao took a longer pick, skewered a few pieces of fruit together, and leisurely ate while lying on the couch.

“No need, if someone sees me alone with you, it’ll be hard to explain.”

Nan Jue glared, “I’m your little uncle!”

In her mouth, it sounded just like the messy relationships outside.

Nan Jiaojiao didn’t say anything else, she just nodded, “You are, but others don’t know.

You are negotiating business with Bo Yanching.

If he finds out about my relationship with you at this time, even if your cooperation succeeds in the end, it will be because I went through the backdoor, and that would hurt his pride.”

Nan Jue snorted with laughter, “Since when were you so understanding of others?”

“I’ve always been considerate and sensible.”

Nan Jue looked at her as if she were seeing a ghost, and almost couldn’t catch her breath; she had to pinch her philtrum to maintain consciousness.

He changed the subject, “Bo Yanching is a decent person, but he’s pretty dangerous.

I don’t oppose you being with him.

Just stay alert, guard yourself, don’t entrust him with everything.

The Bo Family is not as simple as it appears on the surface.”

Nan Jiaojiao bit into an apple, her eyes downturned in thought.

She thought about Old Lady Bo’s knees.

They had been smashed purposefully.

The secrets of the Bo Family never piqued her curiosity; as long as things looked fine on the surface, that was enough.

Every family has its dark and dirty corners.

Nan Jue saw what she was thinking and feared she would really dive in headfirst, making it difficult to pull out afterward.

“Listen to me, find a time to break it off with Bo Yanching.”

Nan Jiaojiao looked up, “You just said you didn’t oppose.”

“Can I stop you?”

Nan Jue sat down, pushing the cup of water towards her, “This is warm, drink more water.

Haven’t you ever thought about why the Bo Family only has Bo Yanching and his grandmother?

The illness of Bo Qingshan isn’t congenital.

None of the children of his generation are in good health.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s eyelid twitched, not wanting to think too deeply, but she never disobeyed her little uncle’s words.

This was the first time; it involved Bo Yanching, and she felt a little out of her element.

It was fuzzy, untouchable, a bit panicky.

“Little Uncle, how long are you staying this time?”

Nan Jue’s expression darkened a bit, she refused to talk about the Bo Family, so he chose to close the subject timely, saying indifferently, “I only have a week off.

If you didn’t come to see me today, I would have had to go back to the old house, to spend a few days with my dad.”

Nan Jiaojiao said, “I can’t go back this time, next time.”

Nan Jue let out a light chuckle, “Bo Yanching came looking for me last night, threatened me to stay away from you.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s eyes sparkled, “And then?

Did you fight?”

“Of course not; we’re adults, who plays those childish games.”

She smiled, her eyes curving, “He’s really handsome.”

Nan Jue sighed, “The kid has grown up, her eyes no longer stuck only on me.”

Nan Jiaojiao laughed softly, not joining in the banter.

She stayed at Nan Jue’s place for a while.

His phone was constantly ringing.

Issues of Nan’s didn’t bother him, but he was frequently sought after from the border; by the sound of it, there was not a single matter that was easy.
