Chapter 423: How did you learn to cook at such a young age?

Chapter 423: Chapter 423: How did you learn to cook at such a young age?

Bo Yunshen closed his phone and instinctively glanced at Qin Yinyin. Her eyes were most like his, but were covered by a piece of gauze, leaving only her sharply outlined little mouth visible.

Rosy and tender, she was eating wontons, strikingly resembling Qin Yan.

This was his and Qin Yan’s daughter.

All the results and indications showed that he couldn’t deny it even if he wanted to.

Bo Yunshen picked up a bit of food and fed it to Yinyin. His attention was on her, and she sensed it. Smiling, she said, "Daddy, theirs aren’t as tasty as Yinyin’s. When Yinyin gets better, I’ll cook for you, okay?"

Bo Yunshen’s eyes darkened.

"You’re so young, how did you learn to cook?"

Yinyin was still small, yet she could cook, which surely meant Qin Yan was mistreating his child. With just this one point, he could win back Yinyin’s custody!

"Because Mommy is often not home; she’s very busy. She hired a nanny for Yinyin, who didn’t feed me and even hit me."

"Later, I learned to cook and made food for Mommy. Mommy is amazing; she realized that nanny was bad..."

Bo Yunshen’s heart skipped a beat.

Yinyin had been abused?

His eyebrows knitted together, and for the first time, regret welled up in his heart. A woman bringing up a child and still holding such a high position in a company.

Qin Yinyin’s words seemed to carve a deep wound in Bo Yunshen’s heart, throbbing painfully and inescapably.

After a while, he reached out and gently rubbed Qin Yinyin’s small head, "Daddy will never let anyone bully you again."

"And Mommy too."

Qin Yinyin added.

"Yes, and Mommy too."

...

Over there, after Gu Jinyan sent the picture to Bo Yunshen, he went straight upstairs.

Lu Xiang was Feng Chen’s secretary, so she was surely taking care of Feng Chen at this time. He went straight to the SVIP floor.

As he reached Feng Chen’s hospital room door, it was open, and Lu Xiang tightly hugged Feng Chen’s waist.

His eyelid jumped suddenly, and he knocked heavily on the door, startling Lu Xiang into turning around instinctively.

Her hair was disheveled, her cheeks slightly flushed, looking incredibly bright and sexy.

"What are you doing?"

Gu Jinyan frowned, questioning aloud.

Lu Xiang saw it was him, her expression paused, and she didn’t speak. Feng Chen spoke first, "What a rare guest!"

"What day is it? Sending off Mr. Bo and welcoming Mr. Gu?"

Feng Chen, exceptionally handsome, lay in the hospital bed, unable to move, yet this slight vulnerability did nothing to diminish his usual coldness.

Gu Jinyan’s lips curled, and his peach blossom eyes were full of cold sarcasm, "Mr. Feng, lend me your secretary for ten minutes."

He squinted his eyes and turned to look at Lu Xiang, who kept her head down, hair covering her expression.

"Go ahead."

As soon as Feng Chen spoke, Lu Xiang moved. She raised her head to look at Gu Jinyan and said, "Say what you have to say here, Mr. Feng isn’t feeling well; I won’t be at ease."

Feng Chen paused, looking at Lu Xiang with a sideways glance, snorting a laugh.

Lu Xiang knew what Feng Chen was laughing at.

She had just come from Qin Yinyin’s room; if he hadn’t called her, she could have talked on the phone outside for a while longer!

Since Feng Chen and Mr. Bo were rivals, Gu Jinyan, a friend of the Bo Group’s boss, might not be welcomed by Feng Chen either. She shamelessly ignored him.

"Private matter."

Those two words were pronounced through gritted teeth, which Lu Xiang detected.

She squinted slightly and suspiciously glanced at Gu Jinyan: "What private matter could I have to discuss with Mr. Gu?"

Not bothered with further talk, Gu Jinyan strode to the bedside, pulled her off the chair, and led her out without a word.

Lu Xiang, unprepared, bumped her calf against the chair leg and couldn’t help but cry out in pain.

"Mr. Gu, after seeing so many beauties with Mr. Bo, have you still not learned to treat women gently?"

Gu Jinyan whipped around, glancing at Feng Chen.

Hearing this, Lu Xiang swiftly shook off Gu Jinyan’s hand: "Who needs his gentleness?"

"I dare not experience it; otherwise, how would I be killed by Mr. Gu’s ladies without even knowing?"

Feng Chen’s mouth curled into a smile, speaking softly, "Secretary Lu, I’m hungry; remember to buy me lunch after talking."

Lu Xiang responded, glaring at Gu Jinyan before walking out first.

Gu Jinyan looked back at Feng Chen, their gazes met, and its meaning was unclear.

Lu Xiang walked quickly, and Gu Jinyan caught up in two strides, grabbing her shoulder.

She was forced to turn, meeting Gu Jinyan’s cold peach blossom eyes.

Lu Xiang chuckled angrily.

Coming to discuss personal matters, wasn’t Gu Jinyan laughing happily when he was on the front page with this model and that princess?

Who told him to come to her?

Who wanted to see his ugly face?

"Get my number off your block list!"

Gu Jinyan started with a commanding tone, and Lu Xiang pushed him, saying, "Is that all Mr. Gu came here for?"

"Then forget it. Seeing Mr. Gu’s face, it’s clear I annoy you. Why should I take you off? Why doesn’t Mr. Gu block me then?"

Gu Jinyan’s gaze darkened.

Seeing this Gu Jinyan, Lu Xiang unexpectedly felt a bit of fear. She bit her lip and took a step back.

"You..."

"Why are you here? What do you want to say? I still need to take care of Mr. Feng later. Gu Jinyan, stop wasting time here!"

Gu Jinyan paused, his already poor complexion looking even worse.

"Taking care of Mr. Feng, but talking to me is a waste of time? Fine!"

"Fine! Good!" Gu Jinyan coldly laughed repeatedly, turning without hesitation: "I have nothing to say. Miss Lu, take care of your patron."

He walked quickly, his long legs swiftly distancing them.

Lu Xiang’s eyes went red with anger.

Her calf still ached faintly from the earlier bump, and the more she looked at Gu Jinyan’s retreating figure, the more wronged she felt. She bit her lip and yelled, "Are you crazy?!"

Gu Jinyan’s steps paused.

He turned back, his peach blossom eyes fixed on Lu Xiang as he took a cigarette out of his suit pocket and lit it.

Gu Jinyan took a puff, the thick white smoke billowing from his mouth, and got straight to the point: "How much do you know about Qin Yan and Old Bo’s incident eleven years ago?"

Hearing Gu Jinyan’s words, Lu Xiang forgot her anger, looking at him skeptically, asking, "Did Bo Yunshen ask you to ask?"

Gu Jinyan’s eyebrows twitched, and he whispered, "I’m just curious? Aren’t you known as your sister-in-law’s best friend? What, your sister-in-law didn’t even share her love history with you?"
