Chapter 471: Chapter 471: This person is really annoying!!!

Then, he turned his gaze to Yuran, "Little Ranran, after all these years, how have you endured him? It must have been tough!"

Bo Yan retorted to the third Bo brother, "You think I treat our baby the same way I treat you? Could you enjoy the treatment my baby gets? You wish."

The veins on the third Bo brother’s face bulged with irritation, "Bo Qi, can you let me eat my meal in peace? Seeing you makes me really want to curse."

Yuran chuckled, rescuing the third Bo brother from his plight, "Seventh brother, come and take Zhizhi to wash up. I’ll go check the script, so third brother can eat peacefully."

Bo Yan sneered, his disdain for the third Bo brother obvious as he stood up, picked up Zhizhi from beside Yuran, and went straight to the washroom.

The moment father and son left, the atmosphere quieted down, and the third Bo brother breathed a sigh of relief, "Little Ranran, how’s the shooting progress? I heard that the Ou family’s young lady is gearing up to challenge you?"

The third Bo brother had a poor appetite, ate a little, and then lost his appetite. He made small talk with Yuran. Before, he had scant interactions with Yuran, but since her marriage to Bo Yan, everyone in the Bo Family had a complete turnaround in their opinion of her.

They now considered Yuran one of their own.

Of course, they wouldn’t allow outsiders to bully her. Was the Bo Family short on people?

Yuran understood and didn’t pay much attention to the matter, "Third brother, are you talking about Ou Jinchu?"

The third Bo brother waved his hand dismissively, "Who knows what her name is. I only recognize the youngest Miss of the Ou family, spoiled to the point of being naive like a Princess of the Great Qing Dynasty."

Yuran smiled, "Third brother, the Qing Dynasty has been gone for a hundred years."

The third Bo brother chuckled, "That’s why I said she acts like a Princess. The castle the Ou family built for her is even more impenetrable than fortresses. Compared to Ou Jinchu, who’s quite famous in the circle,the youngest Miss seems like a prized antique, cultivated specifically for leveraging family benefits."

Yuran said, "... I’m somewhat familiar with Ou Jinchu. Strictly speaking, the rivalry isn’t between her and me, but between Xi Nian and Xi Gu.

It’s rumored that the box office and revenue of Ou Jinchu’s ’Miss Rose’ versus my ’City of Temptation’ will determine who has more say in Huanya, Xi Nian or Xi Gu;

However, Xi Nian is a bit odd, I can’t put my finger on what exactly, but before, both Seventh brother and I were quite wary of him;

Yet, Zhizhi took a liking to him, which both Seventh brother and I found astonishing."

The third Bo brother furrowed his brows, "What are the strange things about Xi Nian?"

Yuran replied, "He’s unusually attentive to my affairs, but he doesn’t like me—I’m sure of that."

The third Bo brother stroked his chin, his brows tightening further, "This Xi Nian came storming in, taking bold actions to shake up Huanya, to have more clout there, shaping the current landscape;but this man, from a business standpoint, doesn’t seem overly ambitious, and I can’t quite figure him out.

However, eldest brother has a good opinion of him, they’ve collaborated before, you might want to ask eldest brother."

Yuran wasn’t particularly interested. After all, Bo Yan was keeping an eye on Xi Nian, and she didn’t sense any hostility from Xi Nian towards her, but she still appreciated the third Bo brother’s kindness, "Okay, thank you, third brother."

...

After Zhizhi finished bathing, Yuran accompanied him to tell him a bedtime story.

It wasn’t absolutely necessary, but Yuran wanted to give some space to Bo Yan and the third Bo brother. The third Bo brother wouldn’t come here suddenly unless there was some other matter.

Feeling slightly unwell, Yuran took Zhizhi to her bedroom first, and later Bo Yan would carry him to the secondary bedroom to sleep with the third Bo brother.

Once Yuran closed the door to her room, Bo Yan took a seat on the sofa across from the third Bo brother, "Third brother, do you know who they’ve arranged for your blind date?"

The third Bo brother saw the frivolous smile on his face and felt a bad premonition climbing up his spine. He was a bit reluctant to continue listening, but would Bo Yan, that unpleasant man, stop talking just because you didn’t want to listen?

Of course not.

He would say it with great pleasure.

Bo Yan’s cheeks twitched. "Thank you, now shut up, I don’t want to hear it, I want to talk about something else."

Bo Yan’s fingers were on the low table, tapping it twice, "We’ll have plenty of time for serious matters, but now I’d like to share some gossip with you, which is quite enjoyable."

Bo Yan spat blood, "Can’t you drop that nasty sense of humor? Only Little Ranran would indulge you like that. You really have a low EQ when it comes to your brother."

Bo Yan pretended not to hear, his expression unchanged, not feeling at all that he was being mocked. Instead, he seemed even more pleased, "Third brother, the person you’re matched with..."

"Shut up, just shut up, I don’t want to listen to you, your words are so unpleasant."

Bo Yan quickly cut off the unscrupulous Bo Yan. Interacting with him was simply life-shortening. Why wasn’t staying at a hotel pleasant for him? Why did he have to come and add to the trouble at Bo Yan’s place?

How preposterous!

Was this how the Bo Family was taught to be ’brotherly kind and brotherly respectful’?

Seeing the countless expressions cross Bo Yan’s face, Bo Yan clicked his tongue, "It’s just some gossip about you. No need to be so agitated, right?

Do you enjoy hearing your own gossip that much?"

Bo Yan, "Are you blind or something? Which eye of yours sees me looking happy?"

Bo Yan, "Both eyes see it."

Bo Yan, "...Why is talking to you so exhausting?"

Bo Yan turned serious, "Third brother, this isn’t something you can just avoid by not wanting to hear it. I think there’s something fishy about your match. Want to hear it?"

Upon hearing this, no further explanation was needed; Bo Yan understood the implication and his expression changed. "My mother is scheming against me?"

"No, someone else has schemed against Second Aunt, and by extension, you’ve been dragged into it. The Ou Family is muddying the waters, hoping to find a big fool like you. But you did well; you didn’t fall for it."

Bo Yan looked at Bo Yan’s sarcastic face, wanting to scrape it. Would this ever end?

His expression grew more solemn, "Are you saying the Ou Family has reached into our side now?"

Bo Yan didn’t confirm or deny, "Otherwise, how could your date be with Ou Jinchu?"

"What did you say? Say that again!" Bo Yan stood up from the sofa, his face a mix of astonishment, shock, embarrassment, and anger.

Bo Yan leaned forward slightly, a teasing smile on his face, "Didn’t hear me clearly? But you heard me pretty well, didn’t you?"

"How do you know this?"

Bo Yan spread his hands, "I have my sources, absolutely reliable. Besides, if you didn’t know who your date was, why wasn’t it successful?"

That’s illogical!

I thought Bo Yan came to complain, but after a couple of probing questions, we’re back to Bo Yan’s unsuccessful match.

After hearing Bo Yan lay out his conspiracy theory, how could Bo Yan not understand the deep meaning behind that phone call? He sat back down and narrated the whole story to Bo Yan, critiquing, "To frame me, couldn’t they have used a more sophisticated method? Using a method meant for trapping rich playboys to trap me, do I look that easy to her?"

Bo Yan listened and frowned, "Wait, something’s wrong with what you’re saying. What have you just compared yourself to? Analyze that?"

Bo Yan: "..." This guy was really annoying.
