Chapter 518: Chapter 518: Mrs. Bo’s Name

Yuran looked at the senior Bo Family leader skeptically, unable to ask what he was going out to do. Instead, it was Zhizhi who was more curious, "Grandpa, where are you going? Can Zhizhi come with you?"

Upon hearing this, the senior Bo Family leader smiled warmly, "Zhizhi, you stay home with Mom. Grandpa is going to cheer Grandma on."

Yuran understood then, realizing that he was worried about Mrs. Bo going to the Qin Family alone. So, after thinking it over, the senior Bo Family leader decided to accompany her. Yuran smiled, "Dad, should I drive you there?"

The senior Bo Family leader declined, "No need, stay home with Zhizhi. My security officer will arrive soon."

Yuran smiled, "Don’t worry, Dad."

The senior Bo Family leader chuckled softly, "Your mom was quite hot-tempered when she was younger. She poured all her patience into you. I didn’t let her have a second child, and she always felt I ruined her dream of playing matchmaker. Fortunately, over the years, she had you for company."

At his words, Yuran felt ashamed. She hung her head, her cheeks turning a bit red, "Dad, in the past, I was really..."

Before she could finish, the senior Bo Family leader interrupted her, "Ranran, everyone has their wild days when they are young. You have turned out very well now."

Yuran was suddenly at a loss for words. She actually lived a very good life in the Bo Family. Even when Bo Yan didn’t like Yuran in the past, she never suffered any injustices. In her memories of the Bo Family;

she was always happy.

It was only after she had arrived and gained Bo Yan’s affection that her status in the Bo Family rose even higher, and not a single person treated her poorly.

Having grown wiser and quieter, the brothers too, had all changed their opinions of her. It could be said that in the Bo Family, she enjoyed everything she had never had before.

She smiled at the senior Bo Family leader, "Yes, Daddy."

A car slowly approached, and the senior Bo Family leader said smilingly to Yuran, "We are a family, no need for such a sense of distance. You stay and keep Zhizhi company at home. I’ll be right back."

"Alright, Dad, take care."

"Mhm, Zhizhi, goodbye."

Zhizhi waved her hand, "Goodbye, Grandpa. I’ll wait for you to come back and play chess."

"You got it."

...

Thanks to the relationships with her nephew’s husband, her son, and both her husband’s and her own family, there were very few people in the Imperial Community who didn’t know Mrs. Bo. She once had the esteemed title of Imperial Community Princess, which was not a term of irony but a symbol of noble status.

After marrying Bo Yinan, it was a union of strengths. As a young woman, Mrs. Bo was famously unique in the Imperial Community and known as the dominant flower.

She had a formidable temper and came from an extremely strong family background.

Of course, this didn’t make her difficult to get along with. She was easy to get along with but didn’t indulge in the antics of some people in the circle. She was straightforward and surrounded by a circle of powerful friends from the Imperial Community.

Even after becoming someone else’s wife, the older generation still remembered Aisin Gioro Yan vividly.

Therefore, when Mrs. Bo appeared at the Qin residence, the people who were out for a walk nearby all glanced her way. Time had changed many things, but over the years, hardly any of Mrs. Bo’s beauty had withered away—it was as if time treated her particularly well.

Many people recognized her.

"Aisin Gioro Yan, the one who married into the Bo Family, what brings her to our circle?"

"Right? Haven’t seen her in so many years, and she still looks youthful. I heard that her relationship with Bo Yinan is still as strong as ever. It’s simply enviable."

"In our circle, it’s not like the Bo Family; if Aisin Gioro Yan shows up here, it’s definitely not good news. I’d bet she’s here to pick a fight—in fact, to settle scores—giving off a fierce presence."

"They say she had a bit of a temper when she was younger."

"They say? Then you’re out of the loop. It was quite awful. Anyone who crossed her would end up even more unhappy."

"..."

The voices around kept coming nonstop. Bo Uncle looked at her, worried, "Ma’am, this..."

He wanted to ask if he needed to intervene, as this was a matter concerning the lady’s image. These people talking like this were too much.

All these years had passed, and the lady’s reputation was still pronounced.

Bo Uncle’s mouth twitched as if thinking of something.

The Qin Family’s butler recognized Mrs. Bo at first glance. He hurried back and informed the Qin Family patriarch that someone from the Bo Family had come to visit. Without further ado, the old master, leaning on his cane, came out directly. Upon seeing Mrs. Bo, he was surprised and a bit puzzled.

"What brings the young Mrs. Bo here today?"

The Qin Family patriarch had his own thoughts. He had no idea what wind had blown this person here, but judging by her expression, she did not seem to have good intentions. He frowned slightly. Had Yunong done something recently?

Mrs. Bo quietly looked at the old master, "Old master, I’d like to ask, is Qin Yunong at home? I called your company’s reception earlier, and they told me that President Qin wasn’t in the office today, so I came directly to your residence to find him."

The Qin Family patriarch’s brow twitched, "Young Mrs. Bo is looking for our Yunong. Did Yunong do something wrong to anger you? If so, I’ll have Yunong apologize immediately."

How could she not see that the Qin Family patriarch wanted to avoid the issue? Mrs. Bo didn’t have the patience for this runaround and was direct, "Old master, there are some matters that are best asked face to face. Won’t you invite me in to sit down? If we discuss these matters here, I’m afraid your Qin Family will lose face."

If this had been the past, she never would have been so considerate of others. The reason she was thinking more cautiously now was that she didn’t want anyone to think that she, as a mother-in-law, was bullying others by throwing her weight around. She didn’t want to cause any negative repercussions for her family.

Realizing the gravity of her words, the Qin Family patriarch hurriedly invited Mrs. Bo inside.

He also instructed the butler to make tea and call Qin Yunong down. Yunong had a hoarse throat that morning, seemingly from a cold, so she hadn’t gone to the office.

She stayed at home.

She had never imagined that Mrs. Bo would condescend to come to her house.

After the butler mentioned that Mrs. Bo was at the house, her face was filled with nervousness. The more she had hoped Mrs. Bo would like her before, the more anxious she was now.

She had no idea why Mrs. Bo had come. If her own issues had been exposed, then...

She couldn’t bear to think of what might happen next; intuition told her it would be disastrous.

So when the butler came up, saying that Mrs. Bo was looking for her, her first question was, "Mrs. Bo, which one?"

Ever since the photo of Bo Zhi failed to meet the public’s eye, she had a bad feeling. Now that it seemed the reason was about to surface, her apprehension grew without reason.

The butler stood respectfully at the door, looking at the young lady he had watched grow up, and sighed, "Miss, it’s Bo Yan’s mother, Mrs. Bo. She’s downstairs discussing matters with the old master, who has asked you to come down as soon as possible."

Qin Yunong’s hand, as she clutched the doorknob, turned pale, and her complexion lost all color, "What, what does she want?"

Butler, "She’s looking for you."
