Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant!

Chapter 464: Chapter 464

"I have things to keep me busy," Bo Jingshen said in a calm voice.

His tone was not cold, at least not on such a day when he didn’t want to be too harsh toward her.

"I just got out, and there are many things that need my attention," Bo Jingshen said, "and my visa has also expired."

After the incident happened initially, Bo Jingshen took responsibility to prevent Zhou Xiaochu from causing more trouble, and also fearing that Zhou Xiaochu would become a target of others’ anger, he later had her sent out of the country.

He also hoped that, by changing her environment, she could change her mindset.

That she could gradually come out of it and not immerse herself in past obsessions as before.

With Bo Jingshen’s financial capacity, he could certainly provide Zhou Xiaochu with a very good life, and so she had been doing quite well abroad.

There were always people reporting Zhou Xiaochu’s recent condition to Bo Jingshen regularly.

However, whether her state of mind had changed, whether she had moved on, was unclear.

After hearing his words, Zhou Xiaochu did not continue to speak sarcastically, merely saying lightly, "Okay, if you have time, come and see me; if you don’t have time, I can come back. If you’re worried my return might cause problems, then forget it."

This response was somewhat unexpected for Bo Jingshen, as Zhou Xiaochu’s words and tone sounded quite... accommodating.

"Let’s... wait a bit longer," Bo Jingshen said.

Zhou Xiaochu chuckled softly on the other end, her laughter tinged with self-mockery, "Are we waiting until he dies or I die before I can return?"

Bo Jingshen: "...That’s not what I meant."

"Forget it," Zhou Xiaochu said softly, "If you have time, come and see me."

She paused, then added awkwardly, "Also, take care of that short-lived ghost’s tomb more often, his family barely has anyone left."

"...I know," Bo Jingshen answered, furrowing his brow.

The ’short-lived ghost’ Zhou Xiaochu referred to was his foster father; his foster father had died early without enjoying a single day of good life, toiling endlessly to save money so that Bo Jingshen could study more, even go abroad for further education, thus relentlessly working hard.

Even during breaks, instead of resting, he would sleep in his parked car by the roadside, and due to a heart attack, never woke up.

It was hard for Bo Jingshen to determine what emotions Zhou Xiaochu truly harbored towards Bao Jing; it certainly wasn’t love, as she had never shown any affection towards him, but it likely wasn’t hatred either.

Bo Jingshen still remembered the moment when Bao Jing passed away, and his colleagues came to their house to deliver the news; Zhou Xiaochu, upon hearing it, couldn’t even stand steady, her face turning so pale it lost all trace of color.

At the time, this had surprised Bo Jingshen quite a bit since he always felt Zhou Xiaochu desperately wanted to free herself from her father, from this family.

Yet Zhou Xiaochu showed no signs of relief. A memorial service was held for three days; Bao Jing was kind-natured and popular, so many colleagues and friends came to mourn. Worried they might be overwhelmed as widow and orphan, many came forward to help.

At the time, Bo Jingshen was in his senior year of high school, spending his days with his textbooks at the memorial service.

And Zhou Xiaochu actually just sat through those three days in the mourning hall, truly sitting through them without closing her eyes for three days and nights, and saying she neither ate nor drank was not an exaggeration.

This had taken Bo Jingshen by surprise, and afterwards, it had been a relatively peaceful six months for them, mother and son, as Bo Jingshen was busy with his studies.

Perhaps Zhou Xiaochu also hoped he would get into a good university to make her proud, thus the rare tranquility.

Bo Jingshen rarely revisited these past events; it was Zhou Xiaochu’s phone call that made him recall them.

He felt that sometimes, the emotions between people were indeed very strange.

Just like Zhou Xiaochu’s feelings for Bao Jing...

Bo Jingshen suddenly realized that he had just talked quite a bit with Su Lu, and Su Lu seemed to understand emotions more thoroughly than he did; maybe he could ask her interpretation.

With that thought, he immediately left the restroom.

As soon as he stepped out, he happened to see Su Lu walking towards him; she quickened her steps to greet him, "I thought you fell in there."

Bo Jingshen smiled, "What’s up?"

"People are here," Su Lu said.

Seeing her frown, Bo Jingshen asked, "What’s wrong? Something happened?"

He figured out from Su Lu’s words who had come.

Unexpectedly, they still showed up; he had thought perhaps they wouldn’t come, but it seems they couldn’t resist.

"Just now, they started fighting," Su Lu said.

Bo Jingshen was stunned, "Started fighting? Who got into a fight?"

He felt it shouldn’t have happened, considering Ying Xi’s temperament—though not extremely mild—was very indulgent towards Jiang Li; even after learning about his brother’s actions, he just walked away silently without giving Jiang Li a hard time.

Why did they end up fighting? Could it be Ying Xi and Jiang Li?

"Some of the guys who came later, one of them might be gay, I guess. Drunk, he took the liberty to touch Ah Li’s butt, and before Ah Li could get angry, Ying Xi happened to see it all and just went for it."

Su Lu said, "Just now, a men’s doubles broke out, and your birthday is lively. That person’s nose and hand might be broken; he’s howling in the private room. Your birthday is really lively."

Su Lu seemed helpless, gently pinching her nose. noveldrama

Bo Jingshen was also stunned, completely unexpected of the situation.

Bo Jingshen: "This is really..."

Su Lu shot him a glance, "Lively, right?"

Bo Jingshen nodded helplessly, "Really lively."

"If you want to see the excitement, we can go now. If you don’t want the hustle, let’s go to the star-gazing terrace to see the stars. I heard there’s a star-gazing terrace here."

Su Lu pointed upwards, "It’s right up there. As for the situation inside the private room, from what I saw, they’re all capable young individuals. They should be able to handle such a minor scene."

Bo Jingshen kissed her passionately, "I knew you were the most perceptive! Let’s go, to see the stars!"

So the two happily went up to the star-gazing terrace.

In a big city like Feng City, even if you can see stars from the city center, they’re not that impressive, but it’s actually decent on this star-gazing terrace. And it’s not crowded here since most people who come here are here to drink and have fun, not to do something boring like star-gazing.

Bo Jingshen and Su Lu had the whole place to themselves.

After everyone else had left the star-gazing terrace, Bo Jingshen shamelessly clung to Su Lu, acting spoiled without an end.

"My mom just called me."

Su Lu looked at this tall man with long legs, 1.85 meters tall, snuggled into her shoulder acting spoiled. His whole being seemed to scream ’I’m aggrieved; please comfort me.’

Su Lu almost burst out laughing.
