Chapter 45: Misunderstanding

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Observing the prolonged exchange among the individuals, Fang Yuan nonchalantly finished the piece of toast in her mouth. She spoke in an indifferent tone, “I’ll be taking Bo Yi’s car. If you intend to accompany me, you’d best inform him. Informing me won’t serve any purpose.”

Cheng Yuqi appeared bewildered. “Sister, you don’t want me to come along?”

Fang Yuan affirmed, “That’s correct.”

Cheng Yuqi’s expression immediately shifted to one of awkwardness. She hadn’t anticipated such a resolute refusal from this woman.

As Fang Yuan leisurely concluded her breakfast and started to rise from her seat, Xiao Cui interjected indignantly, “She’s barely acquainted with Young Master Bo, yet she’s using his name to suppress you. Does she truly believe herself to be the young lady of the Bo Family with such airs?”

Cheng Yuqi’s grip on her lip tightened even further. Last night, Bo Yi hadn’t consented to her request to accompany him, and now this woman was also declining her proposal. Humph! She couldn’t let her looks outshine hers.

“Lady Yuqi, there’s no need to rush. Let her stumble first. Once she exposes herself and displeases Old Master Bo, you can then pay a visit to the old gentleman. In comparison, Old Master Bo will readily recognize you as the prime candidate for the position of the young lady of the Bo Family!”

Cheng Yuqi pondered over the advice and eventually agreed. Without a basis for comparison, others might not fully comprehend Fang Yuan’s shortcomings or Cheng Yuqi’s own merits. Auntie Wang was indeed correct. This rustic girl from a small town ought to experience a setback first. Old Master Bo had exerted his influence over a significant part of his life, and he certainly wouldn’t hold someone of such unimpressive demeanor in high regard.

“I won’t require lunch today.” Before ascending the stairs, Fang Yuan instructed the nearby maids. Subsequently, she returned to her room and locked the door behind her before drifting off to sleep. After an exhaustive night working on her draft, fatigue overcame her, and she fell asleep within a minute of lying down.

Upon waking up, Cheng Ye and Qiao Xinhui learned that their beloved daughter had skipped lunch. Concerned, they summoned a chef. “Did Yuanyuan not enjoy today’s breakfast?”

The chef perceived it as a desire. “Sixth Miss might have chosen to forgo it due to Seventh Miss’ remarks. It’s not about breakfast…”

“Yuqi?” Cheng Ye and Qiao Xinhui exchanged puzzled glances before simultaneously inquiring, “What did Yuqi say?”

“Seventh Miss didn’t express much. She just requested that Sixth Miss accompany her when she goes to visit Old Master Bo. However, Sixth Miss declined the proposal…”

Observing their daughter’s suppressed frustration, Cheng Ye and Qiao Xinhui decided, “Invite Seventh Miss here.”

Cheng Yuqi was seething upon being summoned. She hadn’t anticipated Fang Yuan’s tendency to complain to their parents about such a trivial matter. She was an adult, yet she acted as if she were throwing a childish tantrum over skipping a meal! Nonetheless, she had to feign a sense of injustice outwardly.

“Dad, Mom, I didn’t say anything unreasonable to Sister. I simply asked if she could bring me along…”

“It’s Grandpa Bo who’s been missing me. He sent me multiple WeChat messages urging me to visit, but 1 couldn’t go back then due to my college entrance exams…”

Witnessing their mixed expressions of belief and doubt, Cheng Yuqi promptly retrieved her phone and retrieved her chat history with Old Master Bo. “Dad, Mom, take a look at these WeChat messages Grandpa Bo sent me. They’re all dated. It’s true that Grandpa Bo wanted to see me and requested my visit several times.”

“Today, coincidentally, I have some free time, so 1 thought of going with Sister…”

Qiao Xinhui hadn’t expected the situation to unfold in this manner. The truth turned out to be far less complicated than they had imagined. Of course, Yuqi wouldn’t jeopardize her sister’s engagement. Their assumptions had been off the mark.

Fang Yuan remained completely oblivious to the developments at home. By the time she woke up, the clock already struck one in the afternoon. After freshening up and dressing, she opened her door just as the clamor downstairs reached her ears.

“Yi, didn’t you bring gifts for Yuanyuan last night? It’s unnecessary to bring so much for me today… Don’t be overly formal. We’re all family; there’s no need for gifts.”

“Oh dear, why would you even prepare a formal present for Yuanyuan’s meeting with Old Master Bo? This, this isn’t appropriate! We’ve readied our own gift. We can’t allow you to spend more money this time!”

Fang Yuan felt perplexed upon hearing this. Had Bo Yi arrived? Wasn’t their plan to meet at the entrance of their home? Why had he entered?

“Uncle, Auntie, you’re making too much of it. Yuanyuan is my fiancee. I should be the one preparing her a welcoming gift.”

As Bo Yi concluded his statement, his gaze fell upon Fang Yuan descending the staircase. She was clad in a light brown casual suit, her long legs elegantly poised, and her facial features remarkably delicate. Perhaps due to being partially still in a state of drowsiness, her attractive brows were faintly furrowed, seemingly laced with irritation. The sight held a touch of endearment.

“Yuanyuan, you’re up. You didn’t have lunch, I suppose you must be hungry,” Cheng Ye inquired.

Qiao Xinhui chimed in, “You should have something to eat. The food is still warm.”

“I’m not really hungry,” Fang Yuan responded. All she desired was to quickly finish her hospital arrangements and return home to address her work matters. Tomorrow being Monday, she had to inspect the company her father had entrusted to her. Time wasn’t exactly on her side..
