Chapter 35: Chapter 35 Dad, I Knew You Would Come Back

Bo Yunshen had assumed that Qin Yinyin would try to hold him back, but even through the thick car window glass, he still heard her tender voice ask the question,

"Daddy, will you still come to visit me?"

She was so naive, standing outside the car door, looking up with her pale little face and struggling to pose the question.

The wound on Qin Yinyin’s head was sticky; it must have been torn open again when she touched it in the car, picking at the scab that had formed. It spread across the top of her head, a dark bruise underneath that was shockingly alarming, causing Bo Yunshen’s pupils to abruptly contract.

But the man did not reply with a single word, instead, he stepped on the accelerator and drove the car away.

"Daddy..."

Qin Yinyin’s figure in the car mirror grew smaller and smaller, eventually becoming a shadow no bigger than an ant.

Bo Yunshen suddenly remembered that Qin Yan’s apartment, it seemed, had no fence and was close to the road; Qin Yinyin, clueless about the ways of the world, had run toward his car, striking Bo Yunshen’s mind once again.

Bo Yunshen was somewhat concerned about how Qin Yinyin would treat other vehicles, just like she did with his car.

He licked the corner of his mouth and said to Gu Jinyan, "You have a good relationship with Lu Xiangxiang?"

This caught Gu Jinyan off guard, making him wary of Bo Yunshen. Fearing that Bo Yunshen would confront him about the theft of underwear, he asked suspiciously, "What for?"

"Call her and tell her that Qin Yan’s daughter is at the doorstep of Qin Yan’s house!"

On hearing this, Gu Jinyan laughed.

"Old Bo, you just said I should mind my own business, and I think I should listen to you! Why? Are you worried about her?" Gu Jinyan’s tone was teasing, "If you’re worried, then go back and pick up the child yourself! As I said, we’re brothers; I won’t laugh at you!"

Gu Jinyan continued to laugh while speaking, with a mischievous sparkle in his eyes that made his peach blossom eyes shimmer even more.

"Laugh at me! She’s not my daughter, why should I be worried?"

He simply detested Qin Yan, that woman who three years ago had been able to blackmail him into marriage just with a bone marrow match. Bo Yunshen did not dare to think what excessive demands Qin Yan would make if he lost her daughter.

Gu Jinyan intended to tease Bo Yunshen a few more times, but it seemed that Bo Yunshen had no intention of turning the car around to pick up Qin Yinyin. Gu Jinyan turned his head to gauge Bo Yunshen’s expression.

Murky and coldly forbidding! His demeanor and state plainly showed how much he repelled Qin Yinyin!

How could he possibly go back to pick her up?

After much hesitation, Gu Jinyan still pulled out his phone and found Lu Xiangxiang’s number and dialed it.

But as soon as Gu Jinyan made the call, the cold, mechanical voice of the customer service agent responded, "Sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable!"

Gu Jinyan: "..."

Disbelieving, he tried calling two more times, only to get the same response.

The atmosphere inside the car was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, and the robotic voice also reached Bo Yunshen’s ears. Gu Jinyan put away his phone and said, "Couldn’t get in touch with Lu Xiangxiang. It’s not very safe for the child to be alone in that place!"

"Old Bo, shouldn’t we really go back and check?"

Bo Yunshen couldn’t even bother to lift his eyelids and simply said, "If you want to go back, you go back yourself. Do I look like I have nothing better to do?"

Gu Jinyan couldn’t help but mutter to himself, Bo Yunshen was the CEO of Bo Group, wasn’t whether he was busy or not just a matter of saying?

Besides, how far had the car traveled since leaving?

"Old Bo, you’re really ruthless!"

Gu Jinyan said, and even gave Bo Yunshen two big thumbs up.

Bo Yunshen smiled indifferently with a touch of coldness.

The scenery outside the car window kept reversing, and faint wrinkles that were nearly invisible crept across Bo Yunshen’s brows but quickly smoothed out after a moment.

Forget it.

If a child so young could break a classmate’s bones in kindergarten, Qin Yinyin might just be toughing it out, he thought she could even give Qin Yan a run for her money.

Just having her wait for her mom at her own doorstep, that place is tiny and hardly anyone’s there, what could possibly go wrong?

Old Gu is just being unnecessarily worried, he didn’t think that Qin Yan and her daughter would suffer any losses!

With these thoughts, the gloom on Bo Yunshen’s face dissipated.

Gu Jinyan might have felt that talking to Bo Yunshen was pointless, or maybe he thought Bo Yunshen was beyond reason, so he simply reached out to turn on the car radio.

The gentle and pleasant voice of a female singer, sweet and lively, caught Gu Jinyan’s ear. He was just starting to enjoy it when it was abruptly cut off by a slightly more formal female announcer.

"We interrupt with breaking news. At 2:27 p.m. today, Tong City Police Station received a report of a young girl in the suburbs who was sexually assaulted and brutally murdered. We urge all parents to closely supervise their children to prevent such tragedies..."

"Screech—"

The car tires ground against the pavement, letting out a loud and piercing noise.

Unprepared for Bo Yunshen’s sudden braking, Gu Jinyan’s body jolted forward.

"Fuck! Old Bo, you trying to get us killed?!" Gu Jinyan blurted out, shaken: "What the hell are you doing?"

Bo Yunshen cursed under his breath. If he wasn’t mistaken, Qin Yan’s new house was also located in the suburbs!

He sharply turned the car around, driving back the way they had come. Matching the content from the radio broadcast, Gu Jinyan almost immediately guessed Bo Yunshen’s thoughts.

"You’ve come to your senses and want to pick up your daughter, but there’s no need for such a rush!"

Bo Yunshen pressed hard on the brake, bringing the car to a halt. He glanced sideways at Gu Jinyan and said in a cold voice, "Get out!"

Gu Jinyan thought Old Bo had misspoken and asked, "What?"

Bo Yunshen slapped his hand on the steering wheel, honking the horn furiously, and repeated, "I said, get out! Call your assistant to come pick you up!"

Gu Jinyan blinked his narrow peach-shaped eyes in disbelief: "You’re going to leave me here?"

Bo Yunshen glanced at Gu Jinyan indifferently and said, "I’m not going to the company this afternoon, nor am I heading downtown, it’s not on my way!"

At his words, Gu Jinyan opened the car door and said, "That’s no excuse to abandon your bro halfway, get moving!"

As soon as he got out, Bo Yunshen stepped on the gas, and the powerful car disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.

Bo Yunshen returned along the same route. Qin Yinyin was sitting on the doorstep, hugging her legs and crying. At the sound of the car engine, Qin Yinyin lifted her head, and her gaze met Bo Yunshen’s through the windshield.

A smile suddenly appeared on her tear-stained little face, and then she got up and ran towards the car with her short legs.

"Wuuu... Daddy, I knew you would come back, you definitely wouldn’t bear to leave Yinyin alone here."
