Chapter 316: Chapter 316: My Woman, No Need for Cousin to Worry

When Lu Yi mentioned the questions he raised earlier, Bo Yunshen’s expression froze.

Lu Yi suspected that he, after being together with Qin Yan, deliberately concealed Qin Yan’s whereabouts following such a massive fire?

Did Lu Yi think he wanted Qin Yan to die in Bai Le Men, that entertainment club?

Bo Yunshen let out a cold laugh—did he need to resort to such despicable means if he wanted Qin Yan dead?!

On the contrary, it was Lu Yi, unable to find her but spouting nonsense here. To Bo Yunshen, Lu Yi didn’t seem to care for Qin Yan as much as he claimed!

Bo Yunshen cast a faint glance at Lu Yi. The latter appeared oblivious, his amber-colored eyes altered in the shifting light.

"Yunshen, Qin Yan might still be inside."

Saying this, Lu Yi took a step toward the "Fire Tower," as though he was determined to venture further.

Bo Yunshen remained unmoving. His right palm was mangled and bloody, drastically different from how it looked when he originally went inside.

It seemed the burns were severe. Despite the grotesque state of his wound, having stood for so long, not a single drop of blood had dripped from it.

Lu Yi hesitated for a moment, then reached out with slight concern to tap Bo Yunshen’s palm and quietly said, "Yunshen, your hand looks pretty serious."

"Why don’t you head to the hospital for a bit?"

"Don’t worry, I’ll keep searching for Qin Yan myself!"

Bo Yunshen’s eyelids twitched.

If Qin Yan remained missing, he had no choice but to keep searching. Otherwise, who knew if Qin Yan, unharmed yet vindictive afterward, might pin another "trying to murder his wife" accusation on him?

Moreover, if something indeed happened to Qin Yan, even without her saying a word, the old man would still believe it was Bo Yunshen’s neglect that caused her harm, and he wouldn’t let it go so easily.

The men of the Bo Family seemed to always care only about the results.

After Lu Yi spoke, he directly headed toward Bai Le Men’s direction, but Bo Yunshen’s reflexes were sharp, and he grabbed Lu Yi’s shoulder.

His long lashes narrowed, and emotions gleamed darkly in his eyes, capturing anyone who dared to meet them. "Cousin, I think I’ve mentioned before, back at the hospital—that Qin Yan is my wife!"

"She’s my woman, so you don’t need to concern yourself!"

Lu Yi’s gaze grew dim.

"Yunshen, the relationship between Qin Yan and me isn’t as you think."

"I’m simply worried that something might really happen to Qin Yan!"

Bo Yunshen sneered coldly once again.

Bai Le Men’s situation had spiraled entirely out of control; even the surrounding residents and shops had been evacuated under the fire department’s orders.

To prevent Qin Yan from dying inside, Lu Yi spoke lightly of the matter, yet his actions meant risking his life to find her!

If things were truly like this, Lu Yi still dared to say that their relationships weren’t as he thought? Bo Yunshen scoffed. Did Lu Yi really expect him to believe such nonsense?

In contrast, Bo Yunshen’s suspicions deepened—he was increasingly convinced that Qin Yinyin’s biological father was none other than Lu Yi!

Bo Yunshen took a deep breath, his eyes growing ever gloomier.

And honestly, maybe the notion of Qin Yan’s bone marrow being able to save his life wasn’t even true!

After all, if he were dead, even if Qin Yinyin weren’t a child of the Bo Family, Lu Yi, as the nephew, would still inherit.

After all, the old man had no siblings, and his three elder brothers had already passed away.

Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, Bo Yunshen gripped Lu Yi’s shoulder tighter. The light in his eyes flickered as he murmured, "Let me say this once more. Qin Yan is my woman—even if she dies in Bai Le Men’s fire, there’s no need for you, Lu Yi, to meddle!"

Lu Yi stayed silent. Bo Yunshen’s words were harsh, yet right after speaking, he strode directly toward the inferno-engulfed tower of Bai Le Men.

Lu Yi quietly watched his retreating figure, thinking how truly unpleasant Bo Yunshen’s personality was!

Clearly concerned for his safety, Bo Yunshen still had to make his words so cutting.

Perhaps Bo Yunshen had forgotten that Lu Yi, despite his warm disposition, was a thrill-seeker. Even though Bo Yunshen’s combat skills were impressive, surviving inside that inferno wouldn’t necessarily be easier for him.

As Bo Yunshen’s figure receded, Lu Yi’s gaze flickered thoughtfully. He called out, "Yunshen, stop searching."

"At this point, even if Qin Yan truly were inside, it’s unlikely she survived!"

Bo Yunshen froze mid-step.

Life’s fragility was often like this—it could vanish in the blink of an eye, right in front of you.

But for reasons unknown, Bo Yunshen struggled to associate "death" with Qin Yan.

Back at the Bo Mansion, Qin Yinyin was there—how could Qin Yan possibly be willing to die?

Bo Yunshen feigned deafness and resolutely pressed forward, his steps firm and unwavering as though he had never paused.

His stride was large, its meaning evident and steadfast. Lin Man panicked and rushed forward, tightly clutching Bo Yunshen’s waist.

"Don’t go!"

"Yunshen, do it for me, at least!"

Lin Man was at a loss for words, her tear-filled eyes shedding copious amounts of sorrowful drops that soaked into Bo Yunshen’s firefighter gear, tracing their way onto his shirt and skin.

Bo Yunshen pried Lin Man’s fingers away. "Manman, I’ll be fine. No matter what, Qin Yan is an employee of the Bo Group. If something happens to her, I can’t shirk responsibility!"

Besides, it was at his invitation that Qin Yan came to this celebratory banquet today.

Otherwise, Qin Yan wouldn’t have known, wouldn’t have come.

If he let her die just like that, he’d carry the guilt of owing her for the rest of his life.

Lin Man sobbed harder, real fear gripping her heart, afraid Bo Yunshen was foolishly determined to go in.

The fire at Bai Le Men was uncontrollable even for the firefighters—Bo Yunshen going in was no different than a moth plunging into flames!

She hadn’t returned from abroad to witness Bo Yunshen’s tragic demise!

"Fine, maybe I don’t matter enough, but Yunshen, don’t you think about your parents?"

"When Third Young Mr. Bo passed away, Mrs. Bo ended up in the ICU. Yunshen, if something happens to you, how do you expect Mrs. Bo to carry on?"

"You’re the only one left in the Bo Family. You’re the lifeline of the Bo elders!"

"The firefighters already went in to rescue people earlier, and they’ve announced that there are no signs of life inside Bai Le Men!"

Lin Man choked on a sob, hesitating as her gaze met the increasingly sharp look in Bo Yunshen’s eyes. Her voice faltered: "What I mean is—could Yanyan have already been saved?"

Bo Yunshen remained unmoved.

If Qin Yan had truly been rescued, then earlier, when he was calling her from inside the private booth, there’d be no reason for her not to pick up.

After experiencing such a catastrophe, there was no way Qin Yan wouldn’t check her phone once she escaped.

He reached out and pushed Lin Man backward. "Manman, you know me—I don’t like owing people."

"You wait here. I’ll go in and find Qin Yan."

Lin Man slowly crouched down, desperately clinging to the hem of Bo Yunshen’s clothing as she uttered the question:

"Have you fallen in love with Yanyan?"

"Yunshen, do you love her so deeply that you must go—reckless and all—to save her?"

Bo Yunshen instinctively denied it: "Don’t talk nonsense!"

How could he have possibly fallen for Qin Yan, the woman who had destroyed his love story?!
