Gu Anxi looked at the message, and after a long time, finally replied to it—

Very official, like a doctor’s order.

After sending it, she didn’t pay any more attention, and just put her phone in her pocket, got out of the car, and went back to have dinner. Mother Bo said she made something delicious tonight.

When she arrived at the dining room, Bo Xichen was surprisingly not working overtime and was already at home, sitting on the sofa reading a magazine. The soft white light shining on his profile made his features look very handsome.

Gu Anxi went over and hugged his neck from behind, "Uncle, you’re so early today."

Upon hearing her voice, Bo Xichen put down the magazine in his hand and pulled her over from behind, "It’s you who’s late, coming back at eight."

He patted her after saying that, "Your Bo Daddy and Bo Mommy insisted on waiting for you to come back before eating, I’m starving."

The last sound, slightly hoarse.

Little Milk Fairy felt a bit embarrassed and didn’t resist, letting him have his way. Luckily, Bo Xichen stopped soon, mostly because their parents would come over quickly after hearing the news.

Sure enough, Bo Nianyao and his wife arrived in less than three minutes, and Mrs. Bo felt so distressed, thinking her baby was working hard. She kept serving her dishes as the Bo Old Master, who had already eaten alone, came over to join unexpectedly...

Slowly eating while discreetly probing for information.

Bo Nianyao was both annoyed and amused, as his father had been obsessed with vegetarianism, living in the mountains alone those years, and now that he’s back, he refuses to go again. Previously, he made a mistake, and fortunately, there’s a baby in the family.

After dinner, Bo Nianyao brought up a serious matter, "Tomorrow is the Jiang family’s banquet. Jiang Chaoge secured the Huaer Laboratory project, making quite a splash for a while. Xichen, what do you plan to do?"

Bo Nianyao gently turned the cup in his hand, his voice slightly deep, "Tomorrow the Jiang family will definitely try to suppress our Bo family in front of others, and our relationship with Mr. Wang isn’t what it used to be. Shouldn’t we avoid this confrontation?"

He finished and looked calmly at his son’s face.

Little Milk Fairy’s eyes were also sparkling, watching their little uncle.

If the little uncle didn’t speak, she wouldn’t either.

Before Bo Xichen could open his mouth, Bo Nianyao smiled, "Baby, don’t look at your little uncle like that. If you want to be annoying, wait until you’re alone with him." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Little Milk Fairy obediently retracted her gaze.

Bo Xichen looked at her face, smiled, and then turned to his mother, "Do you remember you have a Z Charity Foundation?"

"How could I forget?" Mrs. Bo smiled, "I’m not good at handling these, so your Aunt Bo Jin has always managed those affairs. Is there a problem?"

Bo Xichen paused slightly, "Uh, recently Aunt handed the foundation over to me to manage, and I took on a project."

"A project?" Mrs. Bo shook her head, "Xichen, are you treating this like business?"

Bo Xichen still smiled, "It’s a medical project, coincidentally it’s the Huaer Laboratory project, and we signed it three days before the Jiang family."

As soon as those words came out, Little Milk Fairy was proud, and Bo Nianyao’s couple along with the Bo Old Master were all stunned.

Is it really possible?

So, that means... the Jiang family’s project doesn’t actually exist, or to put it bluntly, it’s illegal?

After a moment, Bo Nianyao finally regained his senses and softly said, "Xichen, are you sure?"

Bo Xichen smiled, "The contract is at home."

Bo Nianyao waved his big hand, "Quick, bring it over, let me see."

Excitedly, he stood up and paced back and forth several times, "Let’s talk in the study."

Bo Xichen looked at Little Milk Fairy, "Go to the Orchid Room and get it, it’s in the safe, the password is your birthday."

Gu Anxi obediently nodded, ran back to get the contract, and when she returned to the study, Bo Nianyao had already taken out a bottle of red wine that had been stored for years and fetched five goblets...

Despite his old age, the Bo Old Master even sipped a cup, savoring red wine with his son Nianyao, admiring the contract worth billions, constantly praising, "Xichen, you’ve done our Bo family proud."

With a smile, Bo Nianyao said, "Father, I told you, our Bo family isn’t lacking strategy, it’s just that we are more suited to the academic path. We can’t abandon the hundreds of years of heritage; if our Bo family gives it up, can others persist?"

The old master agreed, "Nianyao, you’re right. I look at the Jiang family’s petty ways and know they’re not serious about academics. In the medical field... we have to rely on our Bo family."

At this moment, Mrs. Bo spoke up, "Xichen, so according to what you said, the Jiang family was tricked by that William, and fifty billion is gone?"

Bo Xichen smiled, "That’s right, exactly so."

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Bo sighed a little, "That Jiang Chaoge was so inattentive. How could someone with worldly experience be deceived?"

Gu Anxi leaned next to Uncle Bo, softly saying, "The desire for fame and gain is too strong, making it easy to be used."

Then she sighed softly: Once this matter is exposed, Jiang Chaoge will be skinned by Jiang Bin if she doesn’t die. I just wonder if the old brother will pity her and help her out...

Thinking of the old brother, she could only say sorry; Jiang Chaoge never really mattered, just a pawn to balance the old brother. With the Bo family at odds with King Jingyao, too many chips are needed in hand.

Having finished speaking, Mrs. Bo sighed, "What a pity, such a good girl with ambition, why couldn’t she see past it?"

She paused for a moment and then said, "Oh right, just now the tabloids said that Jiang Chaoge is already living at the grandmother’s house. Is there such a thing? If not, which media would dare to write recklessly and make up stories about Mr. Wang?"

The little darling heard and felt uneasy.

So she pretended to play dead, occasionally glancing at the light in the study, then at the cup in her hand.

However, Bo Jin cast his gaze on her little face, then lifted his eyes with a smile and said to his mother, "The tabloids always like to exaggerate, especially these rumors."

Mrs. Bo nodded, murmuring to herself, "That old lady probably won’t be happy hearing this unless things are settled, considering Mr. Wang’s status."

The little darling secretly glanced at her and then quietly turned her gaze away.

All this did not escape Bo Jin’s eyes.

On the way back, it was him carrying her on his back. Old Master Bo was leisurely walking ahead, while Bo Jin was carrying the slightly tipsy young girl. The night wind blew gently, the faint fragrance of blooming magnolia trees was particularly comforting. The little darling buried her little face further into her uncle’s neck, sighing: Uncle is really handsome.

While the little darling was in a state of infatuation and intoxication, Bo Jin tapped her lightly, his voice slightly hoarse: "You’re the one who leaked the news, right?"

The little darling on his back suddenly bristled: "What news, I have no idea."

Bo Xichen was about to say something when Old Master Bo, who was ambling ahead, suddenly turned his head, "Xichen, don’t bully her. An Xi is eight years younger than you, bullying her all the time is out of line."

"I’ll deal with you later." Bo Jin turned his head and mouthed.

Then he turned back, smiling slightly: "How dare I bully her! She’s fierce."

Old Master Bo immediately disagreed with his grandson’s words, "Where are you going to find a kid this obedient? You say she’s fierce, where is she fierce!"

Bo Xichen found it amusing, glanced at his little darling who was sneaking a laugh.

At this time, Old Master Bo started talking to himself again: "Since she drank tonight, let her sleep in tomorrow morning. Kids need to grow, they can still get taller."

He said each sentence, and Bo Xichen nodded gently, already used to how the family elders indulged An Xi unconditionally—

He vaguely remembered the elders saying that no one in the Bo Family was allowed to sleep in.

Now who was it saying kids need to grow and should sleep more!?

Bo Jin felt a mix of annoyance and amusement, also somewhat sour, and after drinking a little, he returned to his room, held his little one in his arms, teasing her sweetly for a long time...

"Really spoiled," he whispered hoarsely in her ear.

Gu Anxi clutched his shirt fabric with her little hand, snuggling softly against his chest: "But the one who spoils me the most is still you."

Bo Jin felt a rush of warmth in his heart, not knowing how to handle her, steeled himself, and gave her a soft scolding: "Is the matter with Jiang Chaoge and Mr. Wang something you leaked on purpose?"

The little darling squealed, crawling forward—such things, how could she admit to it?

But she only managed to crawl a few steps before the man, who had drunk a little, pulled her back and held her firmly.

Gu Anxi bit her lip, looking at him pitifully: "Bo Xichen, you’ve been drinking."

"Hmm?" His breath was a bit warm.

The little darling leaned close to his ear and whispered a few words; afterward, Bo Jin’s eyes became bright and clear.

Her heart was racing.

But shortly after, he held her with one hand and reached to take her phone with the other. No sooner had he retrieved it before she shrieked: "I want privacy rights."

"Kids don’t have privacy rights." He sat up, conveniently pulling her into his arms.

The soft yellow light made the two of them look especially gentle and rendered this night extraordinarily precious.

Bo Jin gave the phone a brief check, then chuckled softly: "Really done with him?"

The little darling took back the phone, mumbling, "Yeah, it’s already a mess."

After a while, as she nestled in his arms, counting his heartbeats, she softly asked, "Uncle, do you want me to reconcile with him?"

"No," his voice was slightly husky: "In fact, I am a bit... jealous."

After speaking, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead, "But ultimately, it’s up to you."

He wished for her happiness; An Xi had lost so much along the way.

They say the strong are lonely, but he hoped she could have a life full of vibrant blossoms around her.
