Her hair was braided into a fishbone braid, and she was wearing a waist-length dress, accentuating her thin waist. Her face was small and delicate, and she looked young.
Su Ruanruan had just sat down and exchanged a few words with the Old Madam when Bo Jingyuan asked, “Why isn’t Dad down yet?”
Madam Bo said helplessly, “There’s a problem with the development of the new medicine. He didn’t come back last night.”
Bo Jingyuan stuck out her tongue.
The Old Madam sighed. “It’s been hard on him and Jingyan.”
Hearing Bo Jingyan’s name, Su Ruanruan’s heart skipped a beat.
Madam Bo answered, “That’s right.”
She suddenly looked at Su Ruanruan and said in a surprisingly gentle voice, “Ruanruan, your uncle has been busy recently. You’ll have to take care of the Old Madam.”
Su Ruanruan nodded obediently. “I will.”
Madam Bo was very pleased, placed her hand on top of the young girl’s and said, “I was thinking that you could move into the Old Madam’s yard so that you won’t have to walk back and forth.”
She then looked straight at Su Ruanruan.
She had heard what had happened last night from the servants.
She was very worried. Her son was so outstanding. He couldn’t possibly marry an orphan.
Su Ruanruan was about to speak when the old lady spoke. “There’s no need to take care of an old lady like me. It’s better to let the youngsters develop their feelings.”
Madam Bo was anxious. The youngsters developing feelings for each other was exactly what she was afraid of.
This was her son they were talking about!
Madam Bo looked at Su Ruanruan, who said gently, “As long as the Old Madam doesn’t find me annoying.”
Madam Bo let out a long sigh of relief and stole a glance at her son, who was expressionless.
After breakfast, Su Ruanruan went upstairs to get her bag.
Bo Ziqi’s sports car was parked at the parking lot but Bo Jingyuan was nowhere to be seen.
Su Ruanruan ignored him and walked towards the entrance of the villa.
