Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant!

Chapter 470: Chapter 470

"I ..." Cheng Youran was somewhat taken aback, suddenly finding herself at a loss for words.

Song Boyuan said, "The compensation will definitely satisfy you."

Cheng Youran had no choice but to look to Su Lu for help, since it was Su Lu who had asked her to come.

Su Lu said, "Xiao Song, don’t make it difficult for You Ran. She’s doing quite well at this hospital, and her contract still has a long time to go."

"I can take care of the breach of contract fee," Song Boyuan said. His voice was very calm, and the calmer it was, the more serious one could tell he was.

"It’s not about that," said Cheng Youran with resignation, but she could see the persistence, or rather the stubbornness, of this man.

After a moment of thought, she sighed softly and said, "You’re doing this because you’re worried about Qiaoqiao’s health, aren’t you?"

Song Boyuan didn’t respond, but all his actions corroborated this point. He was concerned about Jing Qiao’s health; he knew that she resented hospitals, so he wanted to find a doctor she wouldn’t reject, one who could maintain her health over the long term.

Cheng Youran was obviously a very good choice: cheerful personality, not too old, and with impressive professional capabilities.

In this industry, it’s usually hard to find both of the latter two qualities in the same person.

"You Ran is doing well in Feng City, and it’s not possible for her to hastily move to a new city and start over," Su Lu said. "But she must know quite a few people in the industry; finding a suitable doctor to take care of Qiaoqiao’s health shouldn’t be a problem."

Hearing this, Cheng Youran nodded vigorously, "That’s right, that’s right, my Traditional Chinese Medicine teacher is in Beijing, and she’s much more capable than me."

At this, Song Boyuan finally felt a bit more at ease, "Then, I would appreciate an introduction."

It’s not that Song Boyuan couldn’t find good doctors, but because Jing Qiao was too resistant to hospitals. That too was due to his own doing.

Aware of this, he looked to Su Lu.

"Sister-in-law, could you try to persuade Qiaoqiao to see a doctor properly?" Song Boyuan asked.

Su Lu nodded, "I’ll talk to her."

Song Boyuan didn’t say anything more and walked aside.

Cheng Youran could no longer hold back and whispered into Su Lu’s ear, "Is he... really Qiaoqiao’s husband?"

"Mhm, legally wed, recognized by law," Su Lu replied.

Cheng Youran gasped, "I just feel like there’s no affection between them."

Su Lu gave her a sidelong glance, "As if you, a love rookie who started dating at thirty, are in any position to talk about others’ feelings? You haven’t even figured out your own."

"You can speak your mind, but personal attacks are out of line," Cheng Youran clicked her tongue.

She and Su Lu had been friends for many years, so of course, she didn’t mind Su Lu’s comment.

Cheng Youran continued, "I’m just stating the facts. They don’t even make eye contact; not like Bao Jing and you, you two practically glue your eyes to one another."

Then Cheng Youran meaningfully glanced at the large diamond on Su Lu’s finger, "And look at that diamond, it’s so flashy. I heard you became famous last night?"

Su Lu gave a light cough, "Why are you gossiping?"

"If you didn’t gossip, you wouldn’t tell me either! Are we still best friends? I’m just letting you off because you’re in a good mood, and here you are attacking me..." Cheng Youran’s words made Su Lu feel quite ashamed.

"I’m sorry, I’m just still a bit dazed myself," Su Lu said with an embarrassed smile.

Seeing that Su Lu was apologetic, Cheng Youran didn’t dwell on it any further and steered the topic back, "She doesn’t even wear a ring on her finger."

The complexity of the relationship between Song Boyuan and Jing Qiao, of course, couldn’t be explained in just a sentence or two.

Su Lu couldn’t tell Cheng Youran too much, but fortunately, although Cheng Youran was curious, she wasn’t the type to incessantly pry.

As soon as she saw Jing Qiao approaching with a bag of takeout, her eyes lit up and her attention was diverted.

She did indeed have a surgery to perform shortly, so she took her food and prepared to leave.

"I’ll take my leave first!" Cheng Youran said, "I’ll send the prescription to the pharmacy when I get back and have them help with the decoction."

"Thanks," Jing Qiao said.

Cheng Youran laughed, "I should be thanking you for the desserts."

She looked at Su Lu and asked, "Aren’t you going to see me out?"

Su Lu waved her hand, "No, I’m tired."

She really was tired. Last night Bo Jingshen had been like a wolf, and she had indeed been a bit more than she could handle. noveldrama

Cheng Youran looked at her with annoyance, "You look like you’ve overindulged."

Su Lu waved her hand again, "Say hello to Doctor Lei for me, I hope he likes Xiao Qiao’s skills and that it’s worth your while taking all these treats home."

Cheng Youran’s eyes went wide, and she started stammering, "Who, who said I’m taking it for him to eat? Can’t I take it home for myself to eat?"

Su Lu laughed, "Right, right."

Su Lu waved her hand toward Zhao Xiaole, who was not far away, puffing as he ran over. He had been having fun playing with Bo Jingshen in the courtyard just before.

"What’s up, Su Xiaolu!" Zhao Xiaole asked.

With a smile, Su Lu said, "Your godmother has to go to work, you see her out."

"Oh, okay, sure thing," Zhao Xiaole reached out his hand to Cheng Youran.

Cheng Youran held his hand and walked out with him.

Bo Jingshen came over and kissed Su Lu on the cheek, "How is everything?"

His question was directed at Su Lu as well as Jing Qiao.

Jing Qiao said, "I need to take medicine and get some rest."

Su Lu repeated the diagnosis that Cheng Youran had given her after taking her pulse earlier.

Bo Jingshen listened attentively, and after hearing everything, he nodded seriously, "This needs attention. Then, on this trip to Beijing, let’s get in touch with Cheng Youran’s teacher."

Jing Qiao pursed her lips and said softly, "I don’t like hospitals."

Anyone who had been locked up in a psychiatric hospital would naturally dislike hospitals; that was completely normal.

Song Boyuan stayed silent, clenching his fingers tightly, the only one who couldn’t speak out. This matter, he alone couldn’t speak, because it was due to him that Jing Qiao felt averse to hospitals.

However, Bo Jingshen wasn’t really asking for Jing Qiao’s opinion.

He said decisively, "As if you have a choice? Don’t be stubborn, or shall I have Jing Su come and talk to you again?"

At that, Jing Qiao shrank back, "No, no need, right?"

Naturally, Jing Su was more authoritative than Bo Jingshen.

"Then stop being stubborn," Bo Jingshen said.

"I understand," Jing Qiao obediently nodded.

Song Boyuan relaxed his clenched fingers on the side, the palm of his hand sticky with sweat. But he felt relief inside.

He somewhat regretted ever thinking of using Su Lu and Zhao Xiaole as a bargaining chip against Bo Jingshen.

Now it seemed, without their family of three to follow, he and Qiaoqiao would never be able to get along like this.

Bo Jingshen continued, "Your sister-in-law will go with you."

"What?" Su Lu was stunned.

Bo Jingshen gave her a smile, "Didn’t Cheng Youran say her teacher is quite good? You might as well go too, you need to take good care of yourself. Don’t just focus on Jing Qiao and neglect your own health. Anyway, let Song Boyuan pay; it’d be a waste not to take advantage of it."
