The Cold-hearted CEO's Unwanted Bride
Chapter 482: Has Bo Yunshen Returned to the Country?

Chapter 482: Chapter 482: Has Bo Yunshen Returned to the Country?

Bo Yunshen returned to the country, and the same night he was transferred to the SVIP ward of Tong City Central Hospital.

His external injuries had mostly healed, leaving only his ribs in need of rest.

It was the same ward, and when Bo Yunshen arrived, Lu Xiang was handling Feng Chen’s discharge paperwork, while Gu Jinyan, who had picked him up at the airport, was also handling the hospital admission procedures.

Gu Jinyan was standing right behind Lu Xiang, but Lu Xiang was engrossed in her phone and didn’t notice him at all.

After finishing the payments, Lu Xiang turned around and saw Gu Jinyan.

She had no idea how long he had been standing behind her, but when she turned and saw him, Lu Xiang was genuinely startled.

She furrowed her brow and snapped, "Gu Jinyan, are you crazy!"

Gu Jinyan was a little taken aback.

"What do you mean?"

"Are you playing dumb? Why are you standing behind me?"

Gu Jinyan’s smile carried a hint of mockery: "Handling admission procedures for Old Bo, what, is Tong City Hospital yours? Is it not okay for me to stand in line?"

Lu Xiang paused.

True, after their last argument, they hadn’t talked to each other since. Gu Jinyan, being the executive CEO of a company, wouldn’t really care about her, right?

She bit her lip slightly, feeling a bit awkward as she stepped aside for Gu Jinyan, and quietly asked, "Bo Yunshen is back?"

Gu Jinyan nodded indifferently, replying with a question of his own, "Mr. Feng is being discharged?"

"Mm."

Lu Xiang smoothed her hair, saying quietly, "Sorry for hitting you at the hospital last time."

"I’m not that petty."

Usually, when an apology is given and misunderstandings are cleared, that would be the end of it.

Yet for all that was said, up until now, Gu Jinyan didn’t turn his head, his expression remaining indifferent.

Lu Xiang felt the atmosphere grow even more awkward. She squinted her eyes slightly, greeted Gu Jinyan, and turned to leave.

As she walked away, Gu Jinyan instinctively looked after her. She was wearing a light mint-green mid-length dress, cool and pleasant. The emotions deepened in Gu Jinyan’s peach blossom eyes as he casually took the receipt handed to him from the window and headed upstairs.

When Bo Yunshen saw him, his eyebrows lifted slightly, "Why did you insist on going downstairs to handle the admission procedures?"

Gu Jinyan said nothing.

The Central Hospital of Tong City had shares owned by Bo Yunshen. For his admission, the hospital director would naturally take care of it with a word.

Moreover, he had many people working for him; even if procedures truly needed to be done in person, it would be Xu Lin who handled it.

"For Mr. Gu to personally go downstairs and queue for the procedures, what if people outside think Gu Group has gone bankrupt—then it’s all my fault."

Gu Jinyan heard the teasing tone in Bo Yunshen’s voice, realizing that Bo Yunshen must have seen Lu Xiang come downstairs while he was going up.

He maintained a calm expression and ignored Bo Yunshen’s jest, lightly chuckling, saying, "Are you really planning to marry Lin Man?"

"Otherwise?"

"Old Bo, Lin Man was the one who went after Yinyin."

Bo Yunshen wasn’t bothered, saying, "She said it wasn’t meant to take Yinyin’s life, the car accident was just coincidental."

"You..."

Bo Yunshen waved his hand, unwilling to discuss the topic further.

What’s the point of talking about it—regardless of who he marries, that person isn’t going to be Qin Yan.

On the other hand, Lin Man, he knew her intentions were not pure.

Qin Yan endured three years of silent treatment; Lin Man clearly knew this, yet she was still adamant on jumping into the fire pit.

After eleven years, he realized that this woman was just the same as Tang Tian, no different.

Only during those eight years, when she was the only woman by his side, did he not make comparisons, and having acquired everything he desired, Lin Man concealed her claws, making him think she was genuinely pure and kind-hearted.

So much so, that he always thought of Lin Man as kind. That’s why, three years ago, when marrying Qin Yan, so much hatred accumulated.

Such that he just couldn’t swallow the anger!

Bo Yunshen didn’t want to discuss Lin Man, closing his eyes.

The way he looked now clearly meant he wanted to dismiss the visitor, and Gu Jinyan, taking the hint, left the ward.

Xu Lin also left, and in the vast emptiness of the ward, only Bo Yunshen himself was left. He sat on the hospital bed for a while.

The emptiness echoed in the room; for the first time, Bo Yunshen felt an empty void within himself as well.

With no one around, Bo Yunshen hooked up an IV and closed his eyes, eventually falling asleep.

Bo Yunshen dreamt again, of eleven years ago.

Qin Yan was always low-key at school, but her beauty drew attention. After agreeing to be his girlfriend, she requested it to be kept a secret.

Since, after all, they were still in high school.

Bo Yunshen was unwilling, with a sullen face, wrapping his arm around Qin Yan’s head, pulling her into his embrace, asking her, "Being my girlfriend, is it embarrassing?"

He liked her, and having her, he wanted the whole school to know.

To ward off those who didn’t have eyes, coveting her!

Qin Yan nestled in his arms, smiling softly, coaxing him, "How could it be? It’s not being your girlfriend that’s embarrassing, but rather too eye-catching! If you tell others, I won’t get peace until graduation."

Bo Yunshen snorted coldly, determined to tell others; despite Qin Yan’s coaxing, he pretended not to hear.

"No way..."

There was suddenly a soft sensation in his arms, he lowered his head, and Qin Yan hugged his waist, a playful look in her eyes, "Pretty please?"

"Fine..."

Before he realized, Bo Yunshen relented and agreed.

After agreeing, Bo Yunshen regretted it immediately.

He was somewhat of a school celebrity during his schooling, with his desk filled with pink letters.

He sat at the back; during class breaks, while restfully leaning on his desk, Shen Rouran woke him up, her face flushed, handing him a love letter.

Bo Yunshen unconsciously glanced at Qin Yan, who was a diligent student. Ever since Shen Rouran showed up, she hadn’t looked back, not even once.

His expression soured at that.

To say nothing else, he was Qin Yan’s boyfriend.

Even if she didn’t want others to know, it shouldn’t be like this, right?

Everyone around was watching the scene unfold, except for her, detached as usual. Bo Yunshen squinted, staring intently at Qin Yan’s high ponytail.

Could it be that Qin Yan didn’t like him at all, and was just annoyed by his persistence?

In a pique, Bo Yunshen grabbed Shen Rouran’s love letter.

Shen Rouran’s blush deepened, about to smile, when Bo Yunshen tore the letter to shreds, coldly stating, "I don’t like you, stop bothering me!"

Shen Rouran’s anticipated smile froze abruptly on her face.

Bo Yunshen’s pursuit of Qin Yan was no secret.

All of Shen Rouran’s resentment spilled over onto Qin Yan, initially starting with asking Shen Chun to harass Qin Yan.

Shen Chun was just a spendthrift, and his pursuit of Qin Yan was different from Bo Yunshen’s.

Bo Yunshen remembered Qin Yan’s reminders, remaining patient, while Shen Chun presumed Bo Yunshen didn’t like Qin Yan that much.
