Chapter 835: Chapter 698: Liking You Since the First Glance 39_2
Jian Dan smiled slightly, her gaze wandering, "Probably going next door."
"Jin City?"
Mi Lu frowned, "Going to Jin City with your grades seems like a waste of your talent."
Jian Dan hadn’t planned to go to Jin City anyway, so she quickly interrupted Mi Lu, "What are you thinking? I’m planning to go to Diwai, next door, not to the next city, but the next university."
Mi Lu patted her chest and laughed amid Lai Wei’s mocking gaze, "You scared me to death. I thought you really planned to leave the capital."
Jian Dan shook her head, "All the friends and environment I’m familiar with are here. If I change places, I don’t know if I can get used to it, so I’m very clear that I can’t go elsewhere."
Lai Wei walked to her side, wrapping an arm around her shoulder, "It’s great that you think that way. We can meet and have meals often; otherwise, if you go to another city, it would be really far away."
"Exactly. I can’t bear to leave you all."
...
Bo Company.
After instructing the people in the president’s office, Zhou Yao knocked and walked into the CEO’s office, "Mr. Bo, Miss’ exam results are out, and the universities she’s planning to apply to are also out."
"Leaving the capital?"
Bo Qin asked uncertainly. Zhou Yao shook his head, "No, Mr. Bo, she’s still applying to the capital, Diwai."
Bo Qin: "..."
This was indeed quite unexpected.
Bo Qin had tried several times to contact Jian Dan to congratulate her in person and have a meal together, but each time, Jian Dan refused.
Bo Qin asked others why someone would keep refusing him. Others exchanged glances, reluctant to upset him, but since he kept asking, eventually, his friend told him.
"If your relationship was good before, and you’re still being turned down, it means you’re not important anymore. If your relationship wasn’t good, isn’t getting rejected normal?"
Bo Qin said, "The relationship was naturally good, and she is the girl I raised."
His friends were even more puzzled, "How old is the girl you raised now?"
"Eighteen, just finished the college entrance exam."
A friend said, "Well, then the issue must be on your side. A girl wouldn’t dislike such a quality man like you, let alone be infatuated. In fact, the possibility of her liking you is higher, but if she hasn’t started liking you after so many years, it’s because you’re not enough for her to like."
"She did like me, but I rejected her and have been avoiding her for two years without a word."
His friend said, "If I were that girl, I wouldn’t want to see you either. Being raised by you, can’t you discuss things properly? Why give the cold shoulder? You deserve it."
Bo Qin roughly knew he was wrong and felt his anger increasing at the company every day, finding everyone displeasing to the eye. Although he didn’t have a big tantrum, he wasn’t particularly amiable either, making the senior executives even more afraid to report work. The senior executives found Zhou Yao and complained, "Assistant Zhou, could you make Mr. Bo happier? We come every day, anxious and on edge."
Zhou Yao snorted coldly, "You come to me, who do I go to? You don’t have to face Mr. Bo every day, but I have to meet him several times a day."
The executives: "..."
Now that he mentioned it, it’s true. Life is tough for everyone.
It’s a bit exhausting.
...
Bo Qin’s mother had always known that Bo Qin adopted a child but never got a chance to meet her. Before, it was because Bo Qin always said the girl was shy, plus she was young, and with many people at home, it wasn’t suitable to meet. Now, hearing the girl scored well, she thought of buying the girl some things. At the very least, if there’s something she’s lacking, she could talk about it. After all, Bo Qin being a man, it’s inconvenient for him to handle these things.
So, after casually calling Bo Qin, she hurriedly instructed the family driver to go to the villa where Jian Dan lived. Upon arriving at the villa, Madam Bo was quite satisfied. At least the accommodation her son arranged for the girl was decent, and he didn’t treat her poorly.
Mama Lin had met Madam Bo before, and seeing Madam Bo coming uninvited to Jian Dan’s villa, she was startled. She hurried over to support her, "Madam Bo, what brings you here?"
Sir is not home."
Madam Bo smiled warmly, "Mama Lin, I know. You’re here taking care of a girl, the one my son adopted. I just came to have a look. I heard she scored well, so I came to congratulate her in person."
Mama Lin’s heart, which had been in her throat, went back into her stomach.
The driver who followed carried many gifts in his hands, and Mama Lin sneaked a look, somewhat stunned. Madam Bo was settled in the living room to have tea and instructed Mama Lin, "Mama Lin, is the girl still sleeping? Did I come too early?"
