h4Chapter 127: Chapter 114: Su Wan’s Advice (2)/h4

    Su Wan smiled and said, "I called you that since childhood, now I’m really used to it and can’t change it."

    Bao Ye said nothing.

    Looking at his frosty face, so different from those who passionately adore her, Su Wan inexplicably felt a desire to conquer.

    Suppressing her previous words, she changed the subject: "The Bao Group has been flourishing these years, and I heard it’s expanding towards Beijing and Beijing South. That’s all thanks to you. No matter how important the business is, you must take care of your health."

    Su Wan spoke, her eyes gently fixed on Bao Ye: "Otherwise, I’ll be heartbroken."

    Bao Ye listened, his face unchanged.

    Looking at Su Wan’s face, after just a few seconds, he shifted his gaze, speaking with a t tone: "Thank you for your concern."

    Su Wan wasn’t surprised by his reaction.

    If not, he wouldn’t be Bao Ye.

    As the dishes were served, Su Wan picked up the knife and fork, elegantly slicing the steak, casually asking him, "How are things with Jiang Ruan?"

    "Are you still together?"

    At the mention of Jiang Ruan, Bao Ye’s dark pupils showed a ripple, and he said, "Mhm."

    "So do you like her?" Su Wan stared at him, unable to hold back her question.

    "You’ve been with her for quite a while now, haven’t you?"

    "Have you thought about the next step?"

    Being questioned, Bao Ye fell silent.

    Time passed second by second.

    Initially unsure, Su Wan felt a surge of excitement as he remained silent.

    Is it as she thought?

    For noble heirs like them, interests alwayse first.

    Including marriage.

    How could they truly entangle themselves with someone mismatched, let alone marry them?

    It’s merely like keeping a pet.

    Just to pass the time.

    Looking at the whole circle, who’s truly clean, never involved with others?

    Even Bao Ye’s father was unfaithful after marriage, willing to break away from the Bo family to be with another woman outside.

    And even had a son.

    Only a year younger than Bao Ye.

    As she was thinking, the man’s voice brought her back.

    Coldly: "Change the topic."

    Su Wan raised an eyebrow: "Okay."

    They fell silent for a moment.

    Bao Ye slowly and deliberately cut the steak, taking only a bite before putting down the knife and fork.

    He picked up a ss of red wine, lightly swirled it, then took a sip.

    "Is it not to your taste?" Su Wan curiously asked him, "I remember you used to like medium rare."

    "What was then is then."\

    Bao Ye’s eyes turned dark: "People change."

    Su Wan didn’t mind: "But no matter how you change, you’re still you, aren’t you? Bao Ye is still Bao Ye, isn’t he?"

    "Tastes may change, but the blood in your bones won’t, right?"

    "Bao Ye, we grew up together, I know you better than anyone, we are the same kind of people, with the same blood running deep."

    Listening to her firm words.

    Bao Ye’s lips curved slightly, leaningzily back in his chair, his gaze calmly fixed on Su Wan: "How can you be sure I won’t change?"

    "Your words are ambiguous. We grew up together, but I remember Xu Yun only gave birth to one son, Bao Ye. There’s no illegitimate daughter. How are we supposed to have the same blood?"

    Su Wan’s face stiffened slightly, she said: "I didn’t mean bloodline, I meant we’re the same type of person, aren’t we?"

    "For the family, for interests, we’re willing to give everything..."

    Bao Ye interrupted her: "You’re overthinking it."

    "I, Bao Ye, have never sacrificed for anything."

    "There may have been before, but since the Bo family became the first in Beijing, it means I will not be a sacrifice to any interest."

    He looked at Su Wan, with irony at the corners of his mouth: "We are not the same kind of person."

    His imprable nature made Su Wan feel uneasy.

    She took a deep breath, suppressing her temper.

    "Then I misspoke."

    "Don’t be angry."

    Bao Ye had lost his patience to sit.

    "Didn’t youe to find me for something, just say it."

    He wanted to get straight to the point.

    Su Wan had no choice but to apany him. She looked at Bao Ye, her face showing distress: "Aunt Xu doesn’t like Jiang Ruan, you must know that?"

    "She absolutely won’t let Jiang Ruan be the mistress of the Bo family."

    Bao Ye: "That’s none of your business."

    Su Wan: "It’s none of my business, but I care about you, don’t I? After all, we grew up together, and no matter what we say, there are feelings involved. Bao Ye, regardless of what you think, over the years, my thoughts have always been on my career and you, I have never had any other intentions, you should know that."

    "Even if you have Jiang Ruan, who in the circle is truly clean, I know you’re only lonely, looking for someone to kill time."

    "Besides, aren’t you and Jiang Ruan just mutually beneficial? In the past few years, how many resources have you given her, even making her the global spokesperson for Bao Group. You owe her nothing."
