Chapter 83: Chapter 83 Director Qin is Quite Good at Ordering People Around

The already small space seemed even more constricting as the man’s fury drove away the thin air in front of Qin Yan, who deeply inhaled, her face turning a deep purple.

Did Bo Yunshen really want to strangle her?

No, he had wanted to strangle her three years ago!

A tear glistened in Qin Yan’s eyes.

Meanwhile, Qin Yinyin, holding the ice cream Lu Yi had bought for her, excitedly arrived at the original location of the hospital but saw neither Bo Yunshen nor Qin Yan.

"Where did Mom and Dad go?"

She frowned prettily, looking quite unhappy.

Lu Yi thought, since Qin Yan and Bo Yunshen must have things to discuss, he took Qin Yinyin toward the stairwell.

As they passed the green plants blocking the view of passersby, the half-eaten ice cream slipped from Qin Yinyin’s hand and fell to the ground, causing Lu Yi to pause. Just as his eyes shifted downward, Qin Yinyin had already pulled away from him.

She rushed toward Qin Yan and Bo Yunshen, tears quickly welling up in her wide eyes. Her chubby little hands forcefully tugged at Bo Yunshen, "Daddy, Daddy! Don’t hit Mommy!"

Qin Yinyin’s cry brought back Bo Yunshen’s reason. The blood-red in his eyes faded, and he suddenly retracted his hand, which had been veined and bulging.

The sudden release of his grip left Qin Yan unprepared, coupled with the feeling of weakness from having her breath choked off. She stumbled, nearly falling to the ground.

Had it not been for Lu Yi, who quickly stepped forward to support Qin Yan, she would have certainly ended up in an embarrassing heap.

Qin Yan coughed a few times. Before her breathing smoothed, the dry harshness in her throat and the sore tightness against her windpipe reminded her of the reality of what had just happened—all of it was true!

She had not yet come to terms with the situation when Qin Yinyin had already started crying out loud.

"Mommy, you lied to me again. Daddy really did hit you. Daddy doesn’t love us. Yinyin is a bastard..."

Qin Yinyin’s tears streamed down her face, probably too heartbroken; her eye sockets quickly reddened, and her pale little face was filled with the heartache of betrayal.

The emotions of children are unshielded, and Qin Yan felt a pang in her heart, her vision blurring!

Just as she was about to explain, Lu Yi angrily confronted Bo Yunshen, "Bo Yunshen, I originally thought the newspapers had misunderstood you, but it turns out you really are a despicable person! No matter what Qin Yan did wrong, you shouldn’t have laid a hand on her!"

Bo Yunshen smirked menacingly; the cold light outlining his teeth caught by the green light above the hospital safety exit.

"Director Lu should mind his own business. She’s my wife; I can do whatever I want with her, and I don’t need your advice!"

With a hint of ambiguous sarcasm in his tone, Bo Yunshen’s words took Lu Yi aback.

But Qin Yinyin misunderstood and, sobbing uncontrollably, nestled into Qin Yan’s embrace, her large tear drops cascading from her eyes. She wept and wept, her cries breaking Qin Yan’s heart.

Instinctively, she resorted to the excuses she’d used before on Qin Yinyin, "It’s alright, stop crying, silly girl. You’re mistaken. There’s just some dirt on Mommy’s neck, Daddy was only helping to wipe it off."

Qin Yinyin’s tearful eyes fixed on Qin Yan, full of doubt.

Distraught, Qin Yan reached out to wipe her tears, speaking as she did, "Didn’t Mommy explain the reasons to you before? You promised you wouldn’t misunderstand Daddy again, didn’t you remember?"

Qin Yinyin shook her head.

Qin Yan knew her words had taken effect.

Her tears stopped, but because she had not lived with her father since she was young, Qin Yinyin felt insecure. She pursed her lips and, with reddened eyes, asked Bo Yunshen, "Daddy, is what mommy said true?"

Bo Yunshen ignored Qin Yinyin.

He expertly pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and held it between his fingers, giving Qin Yinyin a nonchalant glance, his expression even more indifferent.

Acting, Qin Yan alone was enough!

After all, Qin Yan was always deceiving people. She could call black white, so whether or not he paid Qin Yinyin any attention, Qin Yan would always make Qin Yinyin believe her.

Why would he bother wasting his energy?

Bo Yunshen flicked his gaze, landing it on Qin Yan with a hint of casualness. "Pack your things and come back to the old house with me!"

If it weren’t for the concern that going to the Bo Mansion separately might reinforce the image of a wife-abusing husband in Mr. Bo’s eyes, Bo Yunshen wouldn’t have bothered saying so much to Qin Yan!

As Bo Yunshen finished his sentence, Qin Yan remained still, but Qin Yinyin was already tightly clutching Qin Yan’s sleeve, asking, "Mommy? Where is the old mansion? Can Yinyin come too?"

Qin Yan hesitated for a moment.

After marrying Bo Yunshen, he had not acknowledged Qin Yinyin as a child of the Bo Family. Over the years, the curses Qin Yan heard flying out of the Bo Mansion were endless, mostly about how Yinyin was a bastard and merely a girl, not even qualified to inherit anything.

Qin Yan did not want Qin Yinyin to go to the Bo Mansion.

It was a place full of strife, and if she could, Qin Yan even hoped Yinyin would never set foot there.

Especially when Bo Yunshen’s three sisters-in-law were there. Those three women were not weak in instigating trouble, constantly brandishing threats, and her three-year-old daughter simply couldn’t withstand any of their assaults.

Moreover, considering this morning’s news, Qin Yan could easily guess that Bo Yunshen’s three sisters-in-law would undoubtedly be at the old mansion, probably preparing a barrage of ugly words just for her, Qin Yan.

Weighing the pros and cons, Qin Yan licked her crimson lips and whispered softly, "Be good, Yinyin. Mommy and daddy are going to handle some affairs, Yinyin will go to the amusement park with Mr. Lu."

Qin Yan and Lu Yi had known each other for a considerable time and had been working together for three years, quickly developing an intuitive understanding of each other. As soon as Qin Yan spoke, Lu Yi understood what Qin Yan was worried about.

It wasn’t his first time taking Qin Yinyin out either. He bent down and extended his hand to Qin Yinyin, "Let’s go, Yinyin, Mr. Lu will take you to the amusement park."

Bo Yunshen, who was standing on the side like a spectator as Qin Yan soothed Qin Yinyin, jerked his brows together upon hearing the words "Mr. Lu."

Why should Qin Yan’s daughter go out to play with Lu Yi?

Had all the people available to take care of Qin Yan’s daughter passed away?

Uncomfortable, Bo Yunshen glanced at Qin Yan and said nonchalantly, "Director Qin sure knows how to make use of people. Director Lu works for Bo Group, I don’t approve his leave."

Bo Yunshen’s thin lips twitched as Lu Yi frowned and spoke softly, "Mr. Bo, you should also be aware of Bo Group’s policies, tardiness beyond one hour is treated as absenteeism, and all bonuses for the month are revoked. Bo Group has already been running normally for two hours today, what’s the use in asking for leave now? The PR department won’t face any serious issues without me for a day!"
