The Cold-hearted CEO's Unwanted Bride
Chapter 294: A Decent Girl?

Chapter 294: Chapter 294: A Decent Girl?

"How about I talk to my cousin and swap her position with his?"

The marketing department isn’t cutthroat enough and lacks men. How could Qin Yan be happy there?

Bo Yuanshan’s face instantly darkened, and he slammed his hand on the desk, "Ridiculous! Would any decent girl willingly go to the PR department?"

"You’d better stop talking nonsense like this, or I will never forgive you!"

Bo Yunshen’s gaze turned furious, yet Bo Yunshen wasn’t afraid; the smile on his face deepened.

"A decent girl?"

"Three years ago, everyone in Tong City knew about Qin Yan’s reputation—I’m sure you heard about it too, Dad!"

"Even if you hadn’t heard, premarital pregnancy doesn’t exactly scream ’decency,’ does it?"

Qin Yan’s face turned pale, and Bo Yunshen’s smile deepened as he said softly, "Besides, Dad, we’re living in modern times. Jobs shouldn’t be discriminated against!"

"There are plenty of girls in the Bo Group’s PR department. You can’t possibly claim they’re all indecent, can you, Director Qin?"

Qin Yan’s complexion paled; she knew Bo Yunshen’s words were meant to humiliate her.

"Jobs might not be about status, but the way I handled the news these two times was just luck!"

"Lu Yi has been at Bo Group longer than I have, and he understands the corporate culture, origins, and development direction far better than I do!"

"Besides, he has a professional background. I might not do as well in the PR department as Lu Yi!"

A smile crept into Bo Yuanshan’s eyes, "Lu Yi is indeed a good kid."

Dark clouds gathered on Bo Yunshen’s face.

Qin Yan was lavishly praising Lu Yi!

And even getting the old man’s approval!

Qin Yan sure had the knack for feeding the old man a "love potion." No wonder the old man looked at his own son without a flicker of emotion—it was undoubtedly because he had no fondness for Qin Yan!

All three faces were smiling, and the atmosphere seemed harmonious. Mrs. Bo came downstairs and found it strange.

As soon as she arrived, dinner began. Jiang Xue and Fang Weiwei weren’t there, so there wasn’t much food prepared.

Sitting at the dining table, Mrs. Bo couldn’t help but ask, "Which paternity test result is the real one?"

Qin Yan paused while picking up food.

Bo Yuanshan first gave Mrs. Bo a displeased look.

"Of course, the one Yunshen had is real. I said when Yanyan entered the family that the child in her womb was Yunshen’s!"

"It’s all because of this rebellious son who didn’t believe me and insisted on doing a paternity test!"

"If it weren’t for his foolishness, Bo Group wouldn’t have had so much trouble, almost ruining our reputation too!"

Bo Yunshen: "..."

A bright smile bloomed on Mrs. Bo’s face as she looked at Qin Yinyin, growing fonder by the second.

"I always said, Yinyin looks so much like Yunshen when he was a kid, how could she not be Yunshen’s child!"

"Eh! So pretty. My granddaughter is indeed beautiful!"

While Mrs. Bo and Bo Yuanshan were in high spirits, Qin Yan was having a hard time swallowing her food.

Feeling uneasy, just as she stopped moving, Bo Yunshen suddenly threw down his chopsticks.

The atmosphere turned tense in an instant.

His sudden movement caused a bit of soup to splash from his chopsticks.

Bo Yuanshan glanced at Bo Yunshen, "What are you doing?!"

"If you’re not hungry then get out of here!"

Even Mrs. Bo, who usually doted on Bo Yunshen, gave him a reproachful look and said,

"That’s right, what’s the point of throwing your chopsticks around at the dining table?"

"What if you scare the child?"

Mrs. Bo said as she reached out to caress Qin Yinyin’s face, she gently rubbed the little girl’s frightened cheeks, and softly consoled her,

"Your father went too far, scaring our sweet little girl. Watch me scold him!"

Bo Yunshen sneered, "Sweet little girl?"

"Mom, make sure you’re calling the right person!"

Bo Yunshen stood up and said, "The owner of the paternity test center has been sent by me to the police station. He has already said there is no relation between me and the kid!"

"I have never touched Qin Yan, and she’s a person, people don’t reproduce asexually!"

Bo Yunshen’s words were always sharp and biting, carrying a heavy sense of humiliation, Qin Yan just felt her face burning, never before had she wanted so desperately to rush to Bo Yunshen’s side and shut his mouth.

Bo Yunshen glanced at Qin Yan, naturally seeing her flushed and pale face.

Acting innocent in front of the old man? Pretending to be pitiful?

Qin Yan only wanted him to be subjected to another lashing, not as if it was her first or second time enduring it—he wasn’t afraid at all!

Bo Yunshen looked at the startled Mrs. Bo and said, "Mom, I’ll accept raising another’s child, but that’s it!"

"As for the rest, what I did, I did, and what I didn’t, I won’t admit no matter who says it!"

Qin Yan gently put down her chopsticks, "Yunshen, you’ve gone too far!"

"Over our three years of marriage, the number of times you’ve been to Xing Yue Bay are few and far between; don’t talk about raising someone else’s child!"

"Do you perhaps have a deep misunderstanding of the word ’raise’?"

When she spoke up, Bo Yuanshan also came back to his senses.

Qin Yan’s mouth twitched, "It doesn’t matter how you talk about me, but please leave the child out of it!"

"That’s the most basic etiquette in human interactions!"

"Living in the Bo Family, a century-old clan, you should know that!"

Bo Yunshen’s eyelashes fluttered, and he pressed his lips tightly together, standing in the dining room, he stared at Qin Yan, unmoving, like a perfect sculpture.

Qin Yan was mocking him!

In front of the old man, she dared to suggest he lacked upbringing!

Bo Yunshen let out a cold laugh. Qin Yan had the face to do what she did and still had the nerve to criticize his manners?

"Good, Director Qin sure lives up to her role as the head of the marketing department, quite sharp-tongued indeed!"

Qin Yan pursed her lips, Qin Yinyin stopped eating, she turned her head to look at Qin Yan, tears welling up in her eyes.

"Mommy, what are you talking about?"

As soon as Qin Yinyin spoke, Bo Yuanshan’s face darkened, and he shot Bo Yunshen a glare, "You good-for-nothing, what are you saying?"

"Apologize to Yan and Yinyin!"

Bo Yunshen didn’t move.

Qin Yan didn’t take it to heart; she lowered her head, intending to placate Qin Yinyin when her right cheek was suddenly exposed to Bo Yuanshan’s gaze.

Before coming, Qin Yan had treated the wound again and slightly covered it with makeup.

The coverage had been quite good before, but when she lowered her head, Bo Yuanshan’s eyes pierced through that layer of makeup and saw the undeniable wounds beneath.

"Yan, your..."

"How did your face get injured?" Bo Yuanshan asked and suddenly remembered something, his eyes sharpening as if they could pierce through skin and flesh. He glared at Bo Yunshen and asked Qin Yan, "Did this animal hurt you?"

Qin Yan, feeling helpless, said quietly, "Dad, he has nothing to do with it!"

Bo Yuanshan didn’t believe it; he glared with wide eyes, angrily bellowing, "Today, I heard on the news that the reason he did a paternity test was to protect Yinyin from bullying!"

"I was foolish enough to believe that, but I know exactly what kind of person Bo Yunshen is!"
