Chapter 255: Chapter 255 Director Qin Really Has a Leisurely Time

Bo Yunshen emerged from the master bedroom to find Yanyan and Qin Yinyin sitting in the living room, appearing to be doing their homework.

Yanyan’s head was lowered as she wore a loose house dress, leaning against Qin Yinyin’s side.

As soon as he stepped out, Bo Yunshen even smelled a faint scent of cooked food.

Hearing the noise, Yanyan turned her head, her eyes clear and pure, "Yunshen, you’re awake?"

Bo Yunshen’s expression grew darker.

His face habitually took on a trace of displeasure, "Director Qin really seems to have a lot of free time."

"What, relying on your connections, have you decided not to even go to work?"

Bo Yunshen bit down hard on the words "relying on connections."

Yanyan was stunned for a moment and looked in Bo Yunshen’s direction.

Standing where he was, with his back to the light, his long eyelashes were tinged with a thin layer of gold by the sunlight seeping in from outside.

She could only see the soft light on his lashes, and only heard the ice-cold edge in Bo Yunshen’s tone.

Yanyan didn’t speak, and Bo Yunshen let out a cold laugh.

Was she struck dumb by his accurate guess?

Just because he’d said yesterday that he was the man of the house at Xing Yue Bay, did Yanyan consider herself the lady of Bo Group, so much that she decided not to go to work?

His laugh brought back Yanyan’s wandering thoughts.

Yanyan pressed down her black eyelashes and tapped on the desk, speaking softly, "Yunshen, today is Saturday."

"There’s no work today."

The mockery on Bo Yunshen’s face stiffened, then tinged with a faint trace of embarrassed anger.

"Ha."

"Counting Saturdays and Sundays, Director Qin’s leisure time really seems quite substantial!"

"The salary of the Bo Group’s Marketing Director must be really easy to earn."

Yanyan had long since grown accustomed to Bo Yunshen’s mood swings and had learned how to handle them effortlessly.

Letting go of the hand pressing down on Qin Yinyin’s homework, Yanyan stood up from the sofa and walked towards the kitchen, saying, "I’ve kept your breakfast warm, I’ll go get it..."

Before Yanyan could finish her sentence, she saw Bo Yunshen walking towards the entrance.

Bo Yunshen bent down to change his shoes, and Yanyan understood that he didn’t intend to have breakfast.

"Yunshen, wait a moment."

Yanyan spoke, then turned and headed for the rooms.

Bo Yunshen’s complexion changed, and he paused in opening the door.

What was Yanyan going to do now, insult him before he left?

Why should he obediently stay just because Yanyan asked him to wait?

In the future if Yanyan wanted Bo Group, would he have to hand it over willingly?

Bo Yunshen felt extremely annoyed and had no mood to consider what Yanyan actually wanted to do, and simply pushed open the car door and left.

Yanyan chased after him and stuffed a tube of ointment into Bo Yunshen’s hand.

"Yunshen, it’s time to change your dressing, and remember to use this ointment," she said.

Bo Yunshen’s brows twitched, his fingertips clenched around the ointment, deforming its shape.

He turned around abruptly and slammed the car door closed.

With a loud "bang," Qin Yinyin involuntarily turned her head to glance over.

He drove straight away from Xing Yue Bay, tossing the ointment carelessly onto the passenger seat, a restlessness seeping into the depths of Bo Yunshen’s heart.

The ointment Yanyan had given him was the same one she’d used on him before.

It was one of the few that Bo Yunshen could use.

Once could be chalked up to Yanyan having lucky guess like a blind cat running into a dead rat.

But this was the second time, and still within Xing Yue Bay.

It cannot be that Yanyan predicted he would stay overnight, could it?

This ointment wasn’t new either; it had been opened...

He furrowed his brows slightly; the Bo family had a high risk of leukemia, and he, with sensitive skin, was rather picky about his ointments after injuries...

But this ointment, being specially developed, was very expensive, and there was no real need for Yanyan to keep it on hand.

Bo Yunshen snorted with a scoff.

It seemed like Qin Yan still had lingering feelings for him.

She must have been madly in love with him; otherwise, how could she know his body so well?

Bo Yunshen drove the car, speeding along the road, and three seconds later, the piercing sound of brakes tearing through the lifeless air as the flashy Maserati came to a silent stop by the roadside.

Bo Yunshen took out his phone from the pocket of his dress pants, looked up Xu Lin’s contact number, and dialed it.

The phone was quickly answered.

"Mr. Bo?"

Bo Yunshen responded with a brief acknowledgment, asking, "How’s the task I gave you coming along?"

Xu Lin couldn’t suppress his grievances, "It’s already been sent over, but the results of the test will only be available in three days."

Bo Yunshen remained silent.

He showed no intention of hanging up the phone, nor did he respond to Xu Lin’s words, which left the latter feeling even more uneasy.

"Mr. Bo, the regular testing process takes more than ten days. This is already quite fast."

Bo Yunshen furrowed his brow, "Do I look like I’m in a rush?"

Xu Lin was silenced, frozen with fear.

Bo Yunshen felt that he might be thinking too much.

But as if possessed by a whim, Bo Yunshen added, "Call them and tell them to speed it up if they can!"

Xu Lin, "..."

Mr. Bo isn’t in a hurry, right?

Bo Yunshen left it at that, cutting off the call abruptly.

A couple of minutes after hanging up, Bo Yuanshan’s call came through.

Bo Yunshen glanced at the caller ID, twisted his brow, and without hesitation, he rejected the call.

Afterward, Mrs. Bo’s call came in.

Bo Yunshen paused but still answered.

"You little rascal, who said you could hang up on my call!"

Bo Yuanshan’s voice was filled with vitality, but Bo Yunshen didn’t flinch or furrow his brow; he calmly asked, "What is it?"

"It’s the weekend today; bring Yanyan and the kid over to stay at the old house for a few days!"

"Your mother misses the child!"

Upon hearing this, Bo Yunshen gave a cynical laugh.

His mother knew that Qin Yan’s daughter was not his offspring, so how could she possibly miss Qin Yinyin?

Had the old man been fed too much love potion by Qin Yan and turned foolish?

Otherwise, how could he come up with such a laughable excuse to have him bring Qin Yan back?

"If you want to go, call your esteemed daughter-in-law. I’m busy!"

Bo Yuanshan, green with anger, retorted, "It’s Saturday, what could you possibly be busy with? Don’t tell me you just don’t want to come?"

"Yes! I don’t want to go!" Bo Yunshen admitted without hesitation, "What’s the point of going? To be scolded by you?"

With that one comment, Bo Yuanshan was left speechless, and before he could react, Bo Yunshen cut off the call.

...

Xing Yue Bay.

Qin Yinyin, with her childlike voice, looked at the closed gate and asked Qin Yan:

"Mommy, are you and daddy having a fight?"

Qin Yan honestly shook her head.

The phrase ’having a fight’ implied a closeness that didn’t exist in her relationship with Bo Yunshen—it was not that amicable.

Qin Yinyin pouted her little cherry lips, "Mommy, then why did daddy leave without eating?"

Qin Yan fell silent; or more precisely, she didn’t know how to explain.

In the beginning, when Yinyin was younger, she could come up with something to fob her off, but as Yinyin grew older, the questions she asked became more and more challenging.

Always catching Qin Yan off guard and leaving her speechless.
