Chapter 70: Chapter 70 See You on Monday

People in Tong City have too much free time on their hands—they love to spectate the ostensibly harmonious yet spiritually estranged marriages of the wealthy elite. Some might even be waiting for that "prodigal son" to return, just to spite Qin Yan. Gu Jinyan always turned a blind eye to such matters.

After tasting the sweetness of success, the media naturally reveled in surreptitiously photographing and spinning rumors!

What’s so surprising about that?

Hearing this news, Bo Yunshen was disinterested, idly holding his cup with one hand, and asked in a low voice, "Oh, which young model am I rumored to be involved with this time? How are the photos, any good? If they are, I might have Bo Group release a few newspapers and make some pocket change for clothes!"

Gu Jinyan was left speechless by Bo Yunshen’s retort for quite a while.

In all honesty, he truly admired Old Bo’s way of thinking. If a day went by without some gossip about an affair with some starlet, it seemed as if he were as sick as one could be!

Even more outrageously, he was keen to profit from it himself!

Absolutely insane!

Gu Jinyan muttered a few criticisms to himself but didn’t forget the real reason he was there to see Bo Yunshen.

"I’m not joking with you, it’s TINA who broke the news." Pausing, Gu Jinyan’s lips slightly curled upwards, his tone becoming softer and drawn out, "Old Bo, you surely haven’t forgotten TINA, right?"

Bo Yunshen’s fingers tightened around the cup he was holding, Gu Jinyan had struck a chord.

Indeed, this TINA, left a lasting impression in his memory.

Bo Yunshen’s eyebrows twitched, he abruptly ended the call, and, taking large strides, ascended the stairs to enter his study again.

The man sat in front of his computer, not rushing to turn it on. His body seemed frozen in place, the rhythm of his breathing increasingly distant, his entire being like a lifeless statue.

Bo Yunshen zoned out for a while before finally reaching to turn on his computer. After starting it up, he hesitated but eventually clicked into the social media software Weibo which he had rarely used in ages.

The top three hot searches on Weibo prominently featured TINA’s username. Bo Yunshen, driven by curiosity, went straight to her page.

TINA had indeed updated her Weibo status half an hour ago.

As the queen of scandal in the entertainment world, she rarely posted. But when she did, it caused a tumultuous stir.

And each time, before TINA would post her news, she’d give a hint.

Like this post.

A simple Weibo post of just three words: "See you Monday."

Below the post was a photo of Bo Yunshen.

Bo Yunshen didn’t know where the picture was taken, but judging from the background, it must have been at night. He stood sideways on the sidewalk outside the Bo Group’s entrance, with neon lights cascading behind him and streetlights forming a straight line, dispelling the night, turning the entire city bright as day.

He was dressed in a simple white shirt, a cigarette pinched between his index and middle finger, resting by the side of his lips. Wisps of white smoke spiraled up around his handsome face, obscuring his expression yet making it clear for all to see—the man in the photo was him.

Looking at this photo, Bo Yunshen suddenly felt an urge to smoke.

His fingertips tapped on the tabletop, pulling a cigarette from the pack and lighting it for himself.

TINA was an eccentric. She never concealed her desire to expose someone, signaling her targets with a Weibo post like this before releasing her exposé.

In the circle, many high-profile celebrities, whether winners of acting awards or not, if they fell into TINA’s hands, it was usually the same outcome—ruined reputations.

Because TINA’s revelations were both ruthless and precise!

Speaking of which, there had been a connection between Bo Yunshen and her.

It was already two years ago. At that time, it had been a year since he and Qin Yan got married, and Bo Yunshen had never given up searching for Lin Man.

He set aside his work, used substantial human and financial resources to find her, and just as hard work paid off, the private investigator he employed finally located Manman in a small town in the UK where she had left Tong City for over a year.

After receiving the news, Bo Yunshen dropped all his work, took a flight there, and after gently persuading her for three days, he finally got Lin Man to agree to return here with him.

Bo Yunshen was still immersed in the surprise of regaining what he had lost. Every day, he planned only one thing—to divorce Qin Yan and start over with Manman!

But all his dreams were shattered by a single Weibo post from TINA.

Three years had passed, and Bo Yunshen still remembered that Weibo post vividly.

If three years ago, Qin Yan had been the catalyst that destroyed his love with Manman, then TINA was the spark that ignited that catalyst. It burst into flames amidst their love, leaving nothing but dust.

TINA’s Weibo vehemently condemned his marital infidelity, his emotional shift to Manman, and between the lines, mocked Lin Man for meddling in her best friend’s marriage.

Each word TINA had was backed by solid evidence. Photos and proofs were all-present, irrefutable!

Such a stark reality caused a huge storm in Tong City at the time.

TINA even predicted that Bo Yunshen and Qin Yan would have a marital crisis within a month, and they might even divorce!

She really fucking nailed it, Bo Yunshen had already drawn up the divorce papers!

Back then, the online comments overwhelmingly attacked Manman, with various remarks that even Bo Yunshen, a grown man, felt were too much to bear.

Not to mention Lin Man.

Lin Man was a timid and meek girl. After being with Bo Yunshen, he even worried for a time that he couldn’t protect her well.

Not long after TINA’s Weibo post, Bo Yunshen was forcibly taken back to the Bo Mansion by Mr. Bo’s men.

He proposed to divorce Qin Yan, but Mr. Bo lashed him severely with a whip. At that time, Bo Yunshen was seriously injured, even developed a fever from the infected wounds for three days, and by the time he woke up and rushed to Manman’s place,

the house was empty.

Bo Yunshen checked his phone; not a call, not a message.

Lin Man had left without saying goodbye again, but this time, her determination seemed final. No matter how Bo Yunshen searched, he could find no trace of her. It was as if the woman had evaporated from this world, leaving no sign.

Since that incident, Bo Yunshen harbored bone-deep hatred for TINA.

In Bo Yunshen’s heart, his loathing for TINA was faintly on track to surpass that for Qin Yan.

Forced to recall the past, Bo Yunshen’s long, narrow eyes narrowed, the undercurrents surged, making the emotions in his eyes vividly distinct, especially the contours of his facial features, which became more profound and defined.

Bo Yunshen’s forefinger moved, flicking away the ash at the tip of the spark, and the man licked his lips.

Just for this one thing, he had even suspected that TINA might be Qin Yan because, after all, driving away Manman benefited Qin Yan the most.

But this had always been a guess, and even today, this speculation still swept through Bo Yunshen’s heart for a moment.

What a coincidence, Qin Yan had just left Hai Wan Xiang Xie when TINA updated her Weibo.

Moreover, he had just had a big fight with Qin Yan, angry at his mistreatment of her daughter. Qin Yan might have wanted revenge...
