Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant!-Chapter 48 - Reconciliation
48: Chapter 48: Reconciliation?
48 -48: Reconciliation?
In the morning, Assistant Qiu came over.
He said that Su Jiao’s parents had arrived and hoped to discuss the reconciliation.
Since Bo Jingshen had entrusted Assistant Qiu to follow up on this matter, naturally, it was Assistant Qiu who went to talk to the other party about it as soon as possible.
As recounted by Assistant Qiu, it seemed like the conversation was quite amicable.
But Su Lu knew the temperaments of Su Yukan and Zhu Xinyan; the original words certainly wouldn’t have been so amiable.
It’s likely that they had said some rather unpleasant things.
As a result, whenever Assistant Qiu looked at Su Lu, his eyes couldn’t help but reveal a hint of sympathy.
Su Lu slightly averted her gaze, not meeting Assistant Qiu’s sympathetic eyes.
From her childhood to adulthood, she had seen such looks more than enough…
She was really tired of them.
“So…
do I need to be there?” Su Lu asked naturally.
“Yes, after all, you are the person directly involved.
Although President Bo has taken this on, when it comes down to it, your personal opinion is still more important.”
The nature of the case wasn’t extremely serious, but if inclined to be viewed seriously, it couldn’t be said to be light either.
Su Lu’s opinion was ultimately critical.
Su Yukan, unable to contact her, was panicking so much that smoke could have been coming out of his throat, not to mention Zhu Xinyan beside him, incessantly crying and fanning the flames.
This made Su Yukan even more furious.
So when Assistant Qiu first came to communicate the situation, Su Yukan just assumed that Assistant Qiu was Su Lu’s subordinate, and so was extremely rude in his speech.
The commanding attitude, the unpleasant words, the dictatorial tone, the threatening posture.
One could tell he was very experienced at it; one could tell he had made threats more than a few times.
That’s why Assistant Qiu couldn’t help but show that sympathetic look when meeting with Su Lu.
After all, they are both daughters; how could a father’s heart be so biased?
However, Assistant Qiu wasn’t some pushover to be manipulated at will.
And Su Yukan wasn’t exactly tough to handle.
So after Assistant Qiu said, “I think there has been a misunderstanding.
I am not Miss Su’s assistant, but an assistant appointed by Mr.
Jiang Li for President Bo in Hai City, entrusted to handle this matter on behalf of Miss Su,”
Su Yukan’s bluster extinguished as quickly as if doused…
it was so quick that it made his face seem a bit twisted from the rapid change from jealous anger to a sheepish, ingratiating smile.
Zhu Xinyan, untouched by worldly affairs and playing the rich wife, was still beside him crying and imploring Su Yukan to stand up for Su Jiao.
Su Yukan quickly scolded her to silence.
Then, with that sheepish smile, he proposed that they still hope to discuss the reconciliation and very tactfully mentioned that after all, they were blood sisters who had played and quarreled since childhood; how could such play be taken seriously…
and such kind of defensive statements.
When Su Lu heard Assistant Qiu recount these things,
She tugged at the corner of her mouth.
Bo Jingshen saw the irony hidden in that forced smile very clearly.
He couldn’t help but frown slightly.
Better not to smile at all.
That stiff and scornful smile made Bo Jingshen feel uncomfortable inside.
It was as if…
it hid so much bitterness.
“It is so, I would have found it strange if he hadn’t said those words,” Su Lu spoke calmly.
Assistant Qiu asked, “Do you plan to go talk?
If you are reluctant, you can entrust me with full authority.
Please rest assured.”
Miss Su tugged at the corners of her mouth, “You can’t always hide, let’s go.”
She stood up.
Upon arrival at the police station, Miss Su turned her head toward Bo Jingshen and said, “I can go in by myself.”
Bo Jingshen strongly disagreed and frowned, “If they give you a hard time…”
“They definitely will give me a hard time,” said Miss Su, her voice unnervingly calm, as if she had long since grown accustomed to it.
Hearing this made Bo Jingshen feel even more uncomfortable, “So I’ll go in with you…”
Miss Su thought of the potentially ugly scene that could unfold and for some reason, she still felt…
at least for now she didn’t want him to see it.
It didn’t matter in front of others.
In front of Bo Jingshen, she always wanted to save a little face.
Though she had been shameless on three or four occasions, every time it came to moments like this, that pitiful shred of self-respect would torment her.
Miss Su shook her head, “No, it’s okay, I can go by myself.
Just let me have this one, after all, family scandals should not be publicized…”
Upon hearing this, Bo Jingshen could no longer refuse, only his brow furrowed deeply as he sat in the back seat, silent and obviously unhappy.
Miss Su gently patted the back of his hand and quickly got out of the car.
Assistant Qiu watched her enter alone and couldn’t help but feel concerned.
He turned to Bo Jingshen and said, “President Bo, isn’t this a bit unwise?
I’ve met with them before, and their attitude was extremely aggressive.
I’m worried that Miss Su will be at a disadvantage.”
Bo Jingshen didn’t respond, his lips pursed tightly, brows twisted further, his hand clenched into a fist on his knee.
She said she didn’t want it!
What could he do?
Defy her wishes?
To tell the truth, he had done plenty that went against her wishes since their reunion; in fact, he had been continuously doing things against her wishes.
But something about what she had just said made Bo Jingshen sense her pride in her words.
So…
he simply couldn’t refuse.
Seeing that he was not responding, Assistant Qiu didn’t press the issue.
Miss Su walked in.
Su Yukan and Zhu Xinyan were both sitting inside, waiting.
The two of them looked somewhat weary, but it was still not hard to see that their clothes and adornments were expensive.
As soon as they saw Miss Su walk in, they both stood up abruptly.
“Su Lu!” Zhu Xinyan called out, her voice somewhat shrill.
Su Yukan, on the other hand, was furious, “You actually came?!
Not answering calls!
You let your sister suffer in a place like this!
Do you call yourself human?!”
The uniformed officer, originally planning to mediate, reviewed their attitude and suddenly understood why the one still being held could dare to push her sister into the sea—it was definitely related to the parents’ upbringing, and undoubtedly related to the parents’ usual attitude towards their daughter.
“This is a no-noise area,” the officer said with a frown, “Moreover, as the family of the aggressor wanting to reconcile, it’s best to maintain a more respectful attitude.”
When Su Yukan had faced Assistant Qiu previously, he could only sheepishly play the good grandson, but now he became more assertive, “I raised her!
Now she turns against me, biting the hand that fed her, and I still have to be polite?
This is our family affair, don’t the police avoid getting involved in domestic issues?”
His point wasn’t wrong; officials find it difficult to resolve household matters.
Sometimes when dealing with conflicts like spousal disputes or father-son feuds, they usually just mediate.
Or even the community steps in to mediate.
Su Yukan turned his head back to Miss Su, “Aren’t you going to hurry up and sign to agree to reconciliation?
Let Jiaojiao out!
She has been locked up here all night!
When has she ever suffered like this?
You heartless thing!”
Miss Su, however, remained composed from the start, honestly, she was used to this sort of scene.
Their words had long since been irrelevant, mere background noise to her.
Miss Su spoke calmly to Su Yukan, “I can sign to let her out, but don’t involve me in these matters ever again.
Updated from freewёbnoνel.com.
It’s your business how you want to sell Su Jiao for a good price.
I’m not participating, and don’t expect me to help you pimp her out.”
Miss Su said these words flatly, driving Zhu Xinyan to fury.
Forgetting her dignified ladylike demeanor, she lunged forward with a furious screech.
