My Fortune-Blessed Leading Lady-Chapter 584: The Door Lock Was Also Pryed Off

Ao Chen had intended to settle scores with Bo Yan, ideally going straight to his house, but after leaving, he realized he didn’t know where Bo Yan currently lived.

With no outlet for his frustration, he idly sat in his car browsing the news, and just happened to come across the most talked-about topic. Ao Chen squinted his eyes, exited the news, and tossed his phone aside, feeling uncomfortable everywhere.

Not even three seconds after throwing his phone, it rang urgently.

Seeing it was his assistant’s call, he didn’t want to pick up.

After the persistent ringing, he grew irritated and answered, "What is it?"

The Little Assistant also seemed quite aggrieved on the other end, "Mr. Ao, I just checked and found that the door lock was pried off too. I called to ask which type of lock you would like?"

Ao Chen felt a throbbing in his brow, "What did you say?"

The Little Assistant repeated it all, and Ao Chen almost jumped with anger. He hadn’t paid attention before, with the moving company people coming and going, the house had quickly emptied. He hadn’t expected Bo Yan this beast to even pry off something like that, it was utterly inhuman.

Enraged, he continued to call Yuran’s mobile—busy signal, switched off.

He smashed his phone onto the seat, his eyes reddening with anger, Bo Yan that bastard, just you wait.

...

After finishing lunch, Yuran felt revived. Zhizhi was still elegantly focused on cutting his steak; Yuran propped her chin and stared at him. Zhizhi glanced at Yuran and continued with his steak, cutting a neat square and forked it towards Yuran’s mouth.

Yuran raised an eyebrow, "For me?"

Zhizhi’s dark eyes were clear as he earnestly nodded, "Mommy has been staring at my steak, I thought Mommy wanted to eat."

Yuran: "...Baby, Mommy was staring at you, not your steak."

Zhizhi seemed startled, surprised at Yuran, after thinking for a while, showed his little face fully to Yuran, "Zhizhi will let Mommy look, you can look as long as you want."

Yuran burst out laughing and pinched Zhizhi’s face, "Baby, eat your food, Mommy won’t tease you anymore."

Zhizhi earnestly said, "Then after eating, I’ll let Mommy look again."

Bo Yan’s face darkened, eating his steak from the elegant plate unhappily, humming a sound, which irritated Yuran, who glanced sideways at Bo Yan, "Brother Seven, you couldn’t possibly be jealous of your son..."

"I am not."

His denial came too quick, lacking any persuasive power.

Yuran snickered, feeling like she had forgotten something. It was only after both father and son had almost finished eating that she remembered, "Brother Seven, did you see my cell phone?"

"Wasn’t it in the room?" someone asked seriously.

Yuran shook her head, "Nope, I searched when I got up, but I didn’t see it. You didn’t see it either, Brother Seven?"

Bo Yan shook his head without any burden, "No, I’ll go look for it in a bit."

"Alright then, it’s inconvenient without a cell phone. Today, we had agreed to sign the property transfer contract with Ao Chen."

"I’ll contact him in a bit; it won’t matter if it’s delayed by a day. Aren’t you feeling uncomfortable right now?"

As he spoke, his gaze swept over Yuran.

Yuran’s face turned red, and she glared at him, "Blame who."

"It’s my fault."

Yuran: "..."

...

Yuran had stayed at home all day, without her phone and not paying attention to what was fermenting on the internet. She was completely unaware, just horsing around in the living room with Zhizhi. After Bo Yan had cleaned up the dishes, he grabbed his phone and went to the study, his face darkening as he looked at the increasingly heated topic.

At half past four in the afternoon, a post from Bo Yan’s official account exploded across social media platforms.

Although it was only four words, it made Catherine’s supporters’ faces sting with slaps.

Bo Yan V: I choose Yuran. #Yuran or Catherine, who would you choose?#

Fans of the couple said they had been fed a whole year’s worth of dog food in just these four words, and the grand actor Bo Yan had shocked everyone with his steely performance.

What sort of celestial husband was grand actor Bo Yan? He could earn money, please his wife, and also take care of children.

"Ahhh, lock down the Yan-Ran CP, I can’t handle it, it’s too addicting. Now, let’s see what Catherine’s fans have to say, with their perspectives skewed as far as the Pacific Ocean, go on, talk some more."

"Grand actor Bo Yan’s declaration, I give it full marks, nipping the bud right in the cradle."

"Wow, a fairytale romance."

...

Meanwhile, Catherine in the "Miss Rose" film crew also got the notification from her agent that Bo Yan had debunked the rumors directly, without beating around the bush, not even leaving a sliver of ambiguity, a clean-cut.

She was resting in the lounge area, snatched her mobile phone from her assistant’s hand, logged onto the official account, and saw the words "I choose Yuran." Catherine’s face twisted slightly, staring hatefully at those words as if they were something unforgivable—she almost wished she could glare a hole through her phone.

The assistant looked on terrifiedly, "Catherine..."

"Shut up."

The assistant quivered and quietly stood aside, as Catherine was not in a good situation, with the whole internet mocking her.

Some keyboard warriors commented, would it have been like this if she had kept a low profile from the start?

The topic had exploded at seven in the morning, and grand actor Bo Yan only replied after four, showing that during that period, Bo Yan had always been giving them a chance to clarify. But unfortunately, they thought Bo Yan would not clarify, and look, they were slapped in the face.

It was clear who the winner was.

Did Catherine’s face hurt?

Probably quite painful, considering this slap hit right on target.

Pfft... suddenly getting Bo Yan’s cuteness, so confused.

To add insult to injury, at four forty in the afternoon, Catherine received an overseas call from her brother, his voice cold and mechanical like a machine, "I remember you promised me that the past was just for filming because the pay was good and coincidentally, it was an opportunity to break into the China market. So, stirring up rumors with Bo Yan was part of your plan too? Did you not know he was married?"

Catherine’s emotions started to crumble, and the stern warning from her brother just hit the nail on the head. She yelled, "If you had forced him to be with me earlier in your territory, would all this have happened today? In the end, you just can’t bear to see your sister happy."

"Heh..." Suddenly there was laughter from the other end, not too fast nor too slow, "I’ll tell you one more time, if you still act recklessly without considering our family’s image, and your own image, then I will arrange for you to return to the country as soon as possible. Someone who only knows how to cause trouble abroad doesn’t deserve forgiveness, especially a public figure."

"You can’t do this, I know what I’m doing, and what’s wrong with pursuing my happiness?"

"Pursuing happiness is not wrong, but chasing a man who doesn’t love you and is already married is wrong. Don’t your cheeks burn with shame?"
