Chapter 341: Chapter 341 Really Enduring
"Nobody expected Xiao Caizi to capture Jing Su’s heart, so no one should be too confident about themselves."
"Some people might not match you in any aspect, but they have one trait—they can completely dominate you."
"After all, when Xiao Caizi’s engagement fell through, it wasn’t because Jing Su interfered; he was rather meek and genuinely planned to offer his blessings."
"Who would have thought that her fiancé, under the influence of alcohol, would attempt to force himself on her? Technically, since they were in a romantic relationship and had reached the stage of engagement, everything that should have happened probably had, but they weren’t going down that route, making his actions quite inappropriate."
"Moreover, making loud claims while drunk—who doesn’t know about your fling with Jing Su? If Jing Su could sleep with you, why not me? If a monk can touch you, why can’t I? What sense does that make?"
"Jing Su happened to stumble upon this and boy, did he give that man a good beating. If it weren’t for Jing Su’s influential image, he might have ended up locked up alongside Bo Jingshen."
"Anyway, the engagement was called off."
"After that, Jing Su felt shameless. He shamelessly lingered around her, and they mingled for a while."
"Later, when Xiao Caizi’s family arranged another engagement for her, she didn’t receive any definite word from Jing Su."
"This time, her fiancé was quite stable, the youngest son of the Beijing Song Family, Song Jining, a totally different type from Jing Qiao’s ex-husband, Song Boyuan. He was Western-educated, liberal yet respectful."
"He didn’t mind Xiao Caizi’s past, but he respected her and wouldn’t try anything before marriage."
"So, they set a wedding date, which wasn’t far off."
"That’s why Bo Jingshen felt, at such a time, why wasn’t Jing Su trying to save his own love but instead, after having a heavy drink with Jiang Li, hurried to Feng City?"
"Bo Jingshen eyed him suspiciously, ’You didn’t come here to hide because you couldn’t face it, did you?’"
"Nonsense." Jing Su frowned and spoke softly, but his actions sipping tea were too obviously a cover-up.
"I’m too lazy to persuade you, just don’t regret it yourself," Bo Jingshen said. "I regret my cowardly actions from the past. Given my bloody lesson, if you still don’t learn..."
"Before Bo Jingshen could finish, he suddenly heard Jing Su speak, ’Your son is really good-looking. Su Lu really owes you. To have a son who, in terms of appearance, feels like he has nothing to do with her, looks exactly like you.’"
"Bo Jingshen, puzzled, frowned, ’Why bring up my son all of a sudden...’"
"Before he could finish, Bo Jingshen noticed Jing Su’s gaze fixed in a specific direction and quickly followed it."
"And he saw that table."
"In a child’s seat sat a kid wearing a bright red Astro Boy T-shirt, adorable as can be with a face full of smiles, holding a spoon, with rice grains all around his mouth."
"Bo Jingshen’s gaze froze."
"Xiao Le..." Bo Jingshen muttered involuntarily.
"Jing Su raised an eyebrow, looking at him, ’Want to go over and say hi?’"
"Bo Jingshen did, of course, but then he saw Qiao Li also sitting there."
"Truth be told, he wanted to go even more now."
But thinking of Su Lu’s attitude, he could tell that Su Lu still harbored deep resentment about the past.
To help her let go, he knew he needed to make a great effort himself, and it shouldn’t come from pressuring her too much or by driving away the people around her.
So Bo Jingshen sat there, struggling internally for quite a while, before finally shaking his head.
"No, let’s not bother them," Bo Jingshen said.
Jing Su hadn’t expected Bo Jingshen to be so easygoing. After all, both brothers had inherited from Jing Ce a somewhat difficult personality trait—they were both a bit... obsessive.
This obsession sometimes made it seem like they were just imperiously domineering, but it was actually a relentless obstinacy that didn’t stop until they achieved their goals, although the boundaries were often fuzzy and ambiguous.
For people like them, who were inherently obsessive in nature, making a compromise was never easy. To put it plainly, they wouldn’t back down unless it concerned someone they truly cared about.
"Sure," Jing Su had no objections, casually chatting with Bo Jingshen about business while eating and drinking tea, "If you want this part, you can take it and run with it."
"I don’t want it, I don’t need the money," Bo Jingshen refused without hesitation, even though Jing Su had suggested a promising project that others would beg to participate in.
Jing Su laughed out of frustration, "I didn’t expect you to have such high standards."
"It’s not about having high standards. I know very well how promising the project is. If it were in the past, I would’ve taken it, but now I can’t. I don’t have that much time to devote to work," Bo Jingshen smiled, "I need to find time to pursue Su Lu, and I need to spend time with my son. I’m busy, things have changed."
"Really," Jing Su wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but he thought he detected a hint of boasting in his tone, "acting all Versailles."
Bo Jingshen just smiled.
"Then you better stay alert, and not let someone else steal your wife and child."
Jing Su thought he was indeed quite enduring; he had managed not to disrupt their dinner, even though he was the child’s father, allowing another man to sit there looking perfectly content with Su Lu and her family.
"What’s the use of having all that money, if it just ends up being so frustrating?"
As for Bo Jingshen’s inner thoughts?
They surely weren’t as calm as he appeared. Jing Su could tell from the barely touched meal in front of him that his mind had drifted off somewhere.
So, when it was nearly time to leave, Jing Su seized the moment to pay the bill. He noticed that Su Lu’s table had also asked the waiter to bring the check.
Thus, Jing Su quickly followed suit, which led to a situation where, as they were leaving the restaurant, Su Lu’s group was also just coming out.
"Oh? Long time no see, Su Lu," Jing Su was the first to speak.
Su Lu, caught off guard and not expecting to see Jing Su here, also noticed the man standing outside next to a trash can, one hand leaning on a cane and the other holding a cigarette.
Bo Jingshen was taken aback as well; he had been too distracted earlier and hadn’t noticed Jing Su choosing this moment to pay.
Su Lu looked at him silently for two seconds. Seeing his first rapid response was to immediately put out the cigarette. Then he quickly took out a piece of chewing gum from his pocket and popped it into his mouth, followed by taking out a small bottle of hand sanitizer and diligently cleaning his hands.
Because the next moment, a cute little boy wearing an Astro Boy T-shirt came out from inside. He spotted Bo Jingshen right away, his eyes lighting up as he ran towards him, "Ah Shen!"
