Chapter 466: I'll Supply What You Lack

Nan Jiaojiao showed little emotion, “Nothing much, just got scolded by them.”

Bo Yanching felt uneasy, the treasure he held dear was being scolded by others just like that.

“Why shouldn’t I take action against the Ye family?”

It would just take a word from him, a simple gesture, and the Ye family, just a minor obstacle, could easily be made to disappear.

If it weren’t for the blood that flowed in Nan Jiaojiao’s body, he would have acted long ago.

“Why bother?

There’s no need to dirty my hands, the Ye family isn’t good, but after all…

it is my own family.”

She had no affection for the Ye family members, but neither did she hate them, it was just a difference of paths.

Besides, she had been an orphan since childhood, and she could continue to regard herself as one, it wasn’t that hard.

It was only the hardest years that she had once longed for.

Luckily, there was Ye Jun in the Ye family, who had given her a taste of familial love.

But Lin Shuyun’s phone call today had exhausted the last bit of affection that was left.

“Uncle.”

Bo Yanching immediately responded, “Hmm?”

“Just if I say the word, right?”

Bo Yanching understood what she meant, “Yes.”

“Good, I hope I can delay saying it.”

Bo Yanching felt heartache, she had been fine just moments ago, and just the time it took him to make a call to order food, the phone call from the Ye family had hurt her like this!

How does it matter if I can’t act for now?

Skinning a layer off the Ye family wouldn’t be hard.

“How about watching a movie?

I’ll pick one.”

Nan Jiaojiao shook her head, “I want to watch Peppa Pig.”

Bo Yanching wasn’t in the mood to smile.

Without another word, he carried Nan Jiaojiao back to the living room, turned off the lights, and turned up the volume of the TV.

He had never understood before why Nan Jiaojiao liked things that children watched.

After watching with her a few times, he realized that she envied the family love of Peppa Pig’s family of four.

Bo Yanching held her close to his heart and cooed, “Don’t mind irrelevant people, whatever you lack, I will provide in the future.”

Nan Jiaojiao responded faintly, listless, showing little emotion.

The hotel delivered their meal.

Bo Yanching laid the dishes out on the coffee table, eating little himself, mostly peeling shrimp and picking out the meat from king crab.

Nan Jiaojiao scooped some rice into the sauce of the crab meat, stirred it, and without dividing it into two servings, took a spoon and ate a mouthful herself before feeding him one.

They slowly finished the dish of rice and seafood.

That night, Nan Jiaojiao fell asleep in Bo Yanching’s arms.

He put a blanket over her but didn’t immediately carry her back to the room.

Instead, he watched the remaining episodes of the new season of Peppa Pig seriously before turning off the TV and lights and carrying her back to their room.

Meanwhile, Lin Shuyun made a scene in the hotel, alarming the manager, and even Director Zhang was called later.

She made a big fuss, demanding the Zhang family to give an explanation.

Su Rong’s task for Ye Shiqing was something Lin Shuyun hadn’t known about in advance, but Director Zhang, an old fox, hinted craftily and she quickly guessed the gist.

She was extremely angry, but thankfully she was clear-headed, otherwise she would have let Director Zhang fool her by shifting the blame to the domestic conflicts of the Ye family.

In the end, Director Zhang agreed to invest, and the funds would be under Ye Congwen’s name, dealing with Ye’s business only through Ye Congwen.

Only then did Lin Shuyun calm down.

She took Ye Shiqing to a nearby hotel, telling her to take a shower.

Midway, Lin Shuyun went in to check and, after confirming that Ye Shiqing hadn’t been violated, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After that, she carefully asked what had happened in the private room that evening.

Ye Shiqing, tearful, dragged Nan Jiaojiao into it, exaggerating and embellishing without restraint.

Lin Shuyun, already furious, called Nan Jiaojiao in front of Ye Shiqing and scolded her harshly.
