Mr. Bo, Madam Is Pregnant!
Chapter 391

Chapter 391: Chapter 391

Jing Qiao’s voice sounded as calm as ever, even with a faint smile on her lips. However, the calmer she appeared, the more it made one feel sorry for her, thinking she had it really tough.

Earlier, Su Lu had accidentally seen Jing Qiao’s wrist, the fine white skin marred by a ferocious scar that bulged like a red centipede.

The edges were even extremely jagged, appearing as if it were cut repeatedly by something not very sharp.

Despite looking like an old wound, it was still easy to imagine how vicious the injury must have been.

So much so that Su Lu couldn’t help but secretly grasp her own wrist, her fingertips touching the healed scar on the inside of her wrist.

It seemed to make her all the more empathetic to Jing Qiao’s hardships.

"Why not," Jing Qiao looked at Jing Su in the projection and then turned to look at Bo Jingshen. "I’ll just leave?"

"Leave to go where?" Jing Su’s tone was unmistakably disapproving and his eyebrows were deeply furrowed. "Where can you go?"

Jing Qiao lowered her eyes, her pupils dimming as if void of any light, repeating Jing Su’s words, "Yeah, where can I go..."

She curved her lips into a smile, a touch of self-mockery in it.

Looking over her tragic life, it seemed as if there was nowhere in this vast world for her to belong...

"Then come and live with me," Su Lu spoke out coolly and clearly, surprising everyone.

Jing Su looked astonished at the other end and Bo Jingshen’s gaze was shocked even more.

Jing Qiao looked at Su Lu, taken aback, "Sister-in-law..."

She murmured and then immediately shook her head with a smile, "I appreciate your kindness, but I’d rather not trouble you. That man... you might not understand, he won’t let things go easily, and he’s not someone to be trifled with."

Both Jing Su and Bo Jingshen were aware of this.

The mess with the Song Family was well known to them, but Song Boyuan had been silent and unassuming over the years, quietly watching the Song Family’s heap of troubles. Calmly and steadily, he had pulled everything that should have been his onto his side.

This man’s intellect and abilities were no less than Jing Su and Bo Jingshen’s, and his obstinacy was no less than Jing Ce’s.

A definite, dangerous character.

Thus, when Su Lu suggested that Jing Qiao should live with her, even though Bo Jingshen felt pity for Jing Qiao, he still leaned towards prioritizing Su Lu’s safety, so he disagreed in his heart.

Jing Su, on the other hand, did not express his opinion and kept silent for a moment.

Breaking the silence was Su Lu, who smiled, "I’m not exactly a pushover, either. I can be quite fierce, you know."

In Bo Jingshen’s heart, his beloved girl, though stubborn as a rock at times, was from the bottom of her heart a kind and exceedingly tender woman. She had been bullied by Su Yukan to such an extent before, and she merely couldn’t be bothered to quarrel, rarely getting angry.

She felt there was no need to waste emotions on unnecessary people.

She really was a... pushover.

And truly... not fierce.

Bo Jingshen thought about how he had once hurt her like that, and yet she had never been really harsh with him. The angriest she got was simply talking in a cold voice and ignoring him.

Looking back now, Bo Jingshen could scarcely remember her cold face.

So, when he heard Su Lu’s words at this moment, his heart was very tender, and he didn’t take it seriously.

On the other hand, Jing Su, who had been silent all along, suddenly remarked, "If it’s you... it seems you really could."

Bo Jingshen’s eyes suddenly widened, his pupils shrank sharply, "Jing Su, have you lost your mind?"

Jing Su laughed helplessly on the other end, "Have you been out of touch after being in jail for too long? If you’re out of touch, then don’t make a sound, be rational."

Bo Jingshen’s heart roared with an intensity that was hard to bear, that’s my wife and child you’re asking me to be rational about?

Then how come I didn’t see you be rational about Xiao Caizi’s matter? I heard you were about to crash a wedding, weren’t you?!

Of course, Jing Su was not aware of Bo Jingshen’s internal rants, he just continued to speak rationally, "Back then the Shen family lost their youngest daughter because Shen Jiming had been fooling around with a mistress outside. She couldn’t wait for him to divorce and felt deceived, so in a fit of anger she bought off the Shen family’s nanny, took Shen Qianqian out, and gave her to her, then she went mentally ill, and sold the child. Later, she even committed suicide and no one knew where the Shen family’s daughter was sold."

Su Lu was suddenly reminded of her childhood past, of which she had no memory at all. In fact, it didn’t feel like old wounds being reopened, just a slight discomfort, and she coughed lightly.

Bo Jingshen of course knew all these things about Su Lu’s origins, but what did they have to do with the current situation?

Bo Jingshen frowned, "Don’t beat around the bush, get to the point."

"What I’m saying is the point. Mrs. Zhao Ying, having lost her cherished daughter, almost went mad, divorced Shen Jiming immediately, developed her own business, and made it big. She spread her business far and wide, firstly, to work hard to distract herself from the pain, and secondly, to broaden her business to facilitate searching for her daughter."

"By some stroke of luck, she indeed found her long-lost daughter more than twenty years later. But once bitten, twice shy, Zhao Ying was excessively cautious, even though her daughter was already an adult, she worried about her constantly. Over the years, Zhao Ying has maintained a team."

"It was all to ensure her beloved daughter’s safety, once she was found, and to prevent her from being harmed again. The members of this team are all tough characters discharged due to injuries, all former comrades of Shen Xun."

As Jing Su spoke to this point, Bo Jingshen surely understood what he meant.

Bo Jingshen pursed his lips and turned his gaze towards Su Lu.

Su Lu’s expression remained calm, the corners of her mouth faintly lifted.

Jing Su continued, "Honestly, with the harm you’ve done to Su Lu in the past, it’s only because Zhao Ying respects me that she didn’t have a team beat you to a pulp. You know that, right?"

Su Lu pressed her fists to her lips to cover her smile and coughed lightly twice.

"So, if Su Lu asks Zhao Ying to call this team to her side, Jing Qiao will indeed be able to live with her, and it is safe. At least I don’t think Song Boyuan’s people could easily target Su Lu and Jing Qiao."

Bo Jingshen listened to all this, yet his brow remained furrowed; he was always worried.

Seeing his tight frown, Su Lu understood that this man would always be concerned and caring for her for the rest of his life.

He would never be at ease, no matter how safe she felt she was.

As long as he perceived a danger, he would always worry about her, always want to protect her.

The previous departure was also because of this, but it backfired.

"I am still not at ease, even if we cover from Song Boyuan, what about Jing Ce?"
