My Fortune-Blessed Leading Lady-Chapter 566: A Bunch of Single Bastards: "...

"How could they let ’City of Temptation’ slip by?" Bo Yan used a tone of puzzled certainty. Yuran uttered an "Oh," "I got it, it’s just as I suspected, despicable and shameless."

"Alright, don’t be angry. We’ll deal with problems as they come, no rush. This matter can’t be arranged in a short time anyway. When the ’Miss Rose’ project restarts in the later stage, that’s when ’City of Temptation’ will experience difficulties. By that time, Xi Nian will have had enough preparation;

Mom wants us to go to the compound tomorrow, it seems like something happened at home."

"What?" It was hard for Yuran to imagine what could happen in a place as heavily guarded as the compound, where ordinary people wouldn’t dare to approach. This didn’t make sense.

Bo Yan, however, was smiling with a deep and amused expression, making Yuran even more puzzled. Then she heard his voice overhead, "Big Brother is in his thirties, and we all thought he might not get married at all, but then, a girl showed up at our doorstep, pregnant, and happened just to be seen by Grandfather’s security guard, and then the whole thing came to light."

"Big Brother?" Yuran couldn’t believe it, this really was too hard to believe. Did Big Brother seem like someone who would get a girl pregnant?

Unbelievable, unbelievable.

Yuran felt her little heart couldn’t keep up with the pace, "So, this trip home, is to discuss... Big Brother’s marriage?"

"Most likely."

Yuran: "...What does Big Brother think?"

"He probably thinks it’s acceptable. After all, the girl is only in her twenties, him being an old man grazing on fresh grass is a bit too fresh."

Yuran: "..."

Big Brother, how can you be such a beast.

So, the girl was just nineteen when she was slept with by Big Brother, who is in his thirties approaching forty?

That wasn’t even the most explosive part. What Bo Yan said next was truly the bombshell, "The girl Big Brother slept with is the daughter of his friend. He had been entrusted by that friend to take care of her, but Big Brother took care of her all the way to his bed. I wonder how he will have the face to meet her father in the future."

Calling your own friend’s father ’Dad.’

Xiaoqi, are you poisoned or what?

In Yuran’s mind, the image of Bo Qin calling someone around her age ’Dad’ kept swirling, always feeling somewhat comical.

Wouldn’t that mean she had her daughter as a teenager?

Then, Yuran dismissed her own guess in her mind — it wouldn’t be that bad, perhaps if Big Brother’s friend was older than Big Brother, it would make sense for his daughter to fancy her.

...

The next day, the two of them headed straight to the old mansion with Zhizhi, and upon entering, they saw a girl with a big belly, apparently seven or eight months pregnant, sitting next to Grandma. She had delicate features and a petite body, looking vulnerable and frail. Big Brother sat across from them with a dark face.

His gaze at the little girl was one of deep resentment.

The girl hid behind Grandma, not daring to meet his eyes. Grandma threw an apple at him, "Bo Qin, did I teach you to have no manners? What kind of look is that, threatening the girl too? If you could have kept your lower half in check, could she have gotten pregnant?

You still glare, you dare to glare at others, how outrageous, absolutely outrageous."

Everyone: "..."

Bo Yan, quick-eyed, saw them enter and quickly scooped up Zhizhi into his arms with a kiss, his gaze falling on Bo Yan, "I never would have guessed that the best player in our family turned out to be Big Brother."

Yuran: "..."

Bo Yan delivered a chilly sentence, "Say that to Big Brother’s face, or I can pass it on for you."

"You shut up right now." Bo Yan interrupted with a frantic look in his eyes, "Why are you always looking for a crowd? Can’t you keep quiet? Is this situation any of our business? I was just speaking casually."

"Ranran and Xiaoqi are here," said Grandma with a smile upon seeing the two. "Has our Zhizhi come too?"

Zhizhi called out to her great-grandmother and then slid down from Bo Yan’s body, heading straight to the girl with the big belly. Standing in front of her, she stared at the girl’s large stomach with some puzzlement, "Grandma, is Zhizhi’s little sister inside there?"

Grandma Bo laughed toothlessly, "With Zhizhi’s auspicious words, if the child in your great-aunt’s belly is really a sister, Grandma will give you a big red envelope."

Zhizhi nodded vigorously, "Okay."

With Zhizhi joining in, the previously tense atmosphere eased. Bo Qin’s expression also softened considerably, and he got up and walked a few steps towards the girl. Just as he was about to reach out for her slender wrist, Grandma Bo intervened, "What do you think you’re doing?"

Bo Qin’s face darkened, not wishing to disrespect his grandmother. Lowering his voice, he said, "Grandma, I need to talk to her about something. Could you please give us a moment?" freёwebnoѵel.com

Grandma Bo refused, "What’s there that can’t be said in front of everyone? You think I shouldn’t hear it? Who knows if you take her out, something might happen?"

The young girl’s face was deathly pale.

Bo Qin wanted to say something but then held back. Grandpa Bo, sitting to the side, lifted his eyes somberly, his gaze lingering on his eldest grandson’s face. However, his words were addressed to Grandma Bo, "Let them talk alone. Your eldest grandson doesn’t have the cunning to play tricks under our watch and make your great-granddaughter disappear."

Grandma Bo was still displeased, "Aren’t you worried? Look how afraid Little Jian Dan is of him."

Grandpa Bo’s gaze rested on the young girl for a moment before asking, "Are you afraid of Bo Qin?"

Jian Dan shook her head slowly, speaking very hesitantly, "Grandma, let me talk to Uncle Qin alone."

Old Grandma Bo felt a lump in her heart, "Uncle?"

This was messing up the seniority.

As soon as she spoke, Jian Dan seemed to realize something was amiss, quickly lowered her head and said nothing further. Grandma Bo waved her hand, "Fine, fine, go talk in the small garden, just fifteen minutes. I’m only giving you fifteen minutes."

Bo Qin grunted a response, took Jian Dan’s hand and held it in his own, then bent down and carried her out.

The old master’s mustache trembled with displeasure.

So out of line.

As soon as Bo Qin left, Bo Yan couldn’t contain his gossiping genes that bubbled to the surface, still interested in Jian Dan’s earlier form of address, "Big brother sure has a unique taste. The girl calls him ’uncle,’ and he doesn’t have any problem with it."

Grandma Bo’s heart ached, "You have the nerve to talk about others? If you are so capable, find a niece and get her pregnant then. Talking behind your elder brother’s back, is your tongue too long?"

Bo Yan: "..."

No, why is the heat coming to him?

He was innocent, right?

Grandma Bo looked at the grandsons who had come today; not one of them saved her any worry, a bunch of single bachelors, just like... a bad bunch.

Except for a select few.

Heartache.

Zhizhi sensibly snuggled up to Grandma Bo, "Great-grandma, don’t be angry, Zhizhi is the best behaved."

A bunch of single bachelors: "..."

Don’t overdo it.

Just because you’re young, you think you’re right?

Grandma Bo was overjoyed, lifting Zhizhi into her lap, "Right, our Zhizhi is the best behaved. When you grow up, don’t follow your uncles’ example. Each of them is an unwanted bachelor."
