CHAPTER 1023: CHAPTER 3: MO YUCHU ARC 1_3

"It’s Bo Jinsi, it really is Bo Jinsi!"

Ma Yixi clenched her fists excitedly. She was a bit nervous, unsure if Bo Jinsi had heard what she just said. If he did, would he think something was wrong with her?

Bo Jinsi, whom Ma Yixi mentioned, stood up along with Loo Xun, the man who had just applauded.

When Bo Jinsi stood up, he once again caught the attention of many men and women in the restaurant. He had a nearly perfect physique, and his face was even more impeccable. With chiselled features, his face was strikingly handsome with sharp angles and edges. Under his sword-like eyebrows—slightly slanted and extending to his temples—lay a pair of eyes as deep as the starry sky, above a straight nose and thin, somewhat cool lips.

Bo Jinsi glanced at Mo Yuchu before retracting his gaze. It seemed like he hadn’t noticed her at all.

Loo Xun approached Mo Yuchu, raised a finger, and said, "Well done, impressive!"

"Young Master Loo, it’s not what it seems. My brother and I are good friends with Yuchu. Her family background isn’t good, so we’re just helping her out financially. We mean well."

Fearing a misunderstanding from Bo Jinsi and Loo Xun, Ma Yixi quickly explained, her gaze remaining fixed on Bo Jinsi’s face, not daring to look away.

Who was Bo Jinsi? The only young master of the Bo Family in Liu City, belonging to the top-tier family there. Being the sole young master of such a noble family placed him on an unattainable pedestal. His only flaw was his fragile health since childhood, spending half the year at home recuperating. Even when attending school, his presence was rare.

However, this frail Bo Jinsi didn’t repel women; instead, many were drawn to him, not only because of his prestigious background but also his looks, which could be compared to Pan An reborn.

It was said Bo Jinsi’s looks rivalled that of Mo Yuyan, the first young master of Jingdu City. However, others noted that even though Master Mo Yunchen surpassed forty, his charm outshone both Bo Jinsi and Mo Yuyan. Unfortunately, Master Mo Yunchen’s heart was solely devoted to his beloved wife Qin Qin, never glancing at other women. Rumors spread that Master Mo Yunchen spent the whole year travelling nationwide with Qin Qin, as if they were a celestial couple. When Mo Yuyan matured, Mo Corporation was handed over to him, and Master Mo Yunchen stepped back from all affairs.

Loo Xun approached Mo Yuchu, scrutinized her face, then suddenly broke into a curious smile, "You’ve got backbone!"

Mo Yuchu couldn’t decipher the smile in Loo Xun’s eyes. She sensed someone looking at her, yet when she turned her head, she couldn’t see who was staring. This gaze felt focused, differing from others, leaving her to wonder if it was just her imagination.

"Ahem, Loo Xun, let’s head back!"

Bo Jinsi gave a low cough. Loo Xun, who was about to speak further with Mo Yuchu, was interrupted. He blinked helplessly at Mo Yuchu and had no choice but to follow Bo Jinsi.

Once Bo Jinsi and Loo Xun departed, Ma Yixi and Ma Jinghang breathed a sigh of relief. Although the Ma Family was a noble family in Liu City, they couldn’t compare to the Bo Family and Loo Family, so they dared not act presumptuously in their presence.

"I thought Young Master Loo was going to stand up for you, but it seems you’re not that remarkable after all. I told you, there’s no way Young Master Loo and Young Master Bo would defend you!"

Ma Yixi sneered sarcastically, "Just because you threw the money earlier, don’t think you’re something special. In my eyes, you’re still just a poor woman who could be kept in luxury with enough money."

Ma Jinghang flashed a rakish smile, about to step forward and pull Mo Yuchu into his arms, when suddenly, he clutched his wrist and cried out in pain.

Ma Yixi quickly asked, "Brother, what’s wrong?"

"My wrist hurts, it suddenly hurts so much!"

Ma Jinghang felt a sharp pain in his hand, as if it couldn’t be lifted.

"Was it you, Mo Yuchu? Was it you?"

Ma Yixi pointed accusingly at Mo Yuchu, whose gaze was icy. Confronted with that look, Ma Yixi felt a chill all over and instinctively withdrew her hand.

What on earth, she was actually intimidated by this shabby woman.

"Me? I didn’t even move. How could I have caused his hand to hurt? I’m not that capable. If you truly don’t believe it, check the surveillance footage!"

Mo Yuchu glanced at the nearby surveillance camera. Ma Yixi hesitated; Mo Yuchu was right, she hadn’t even moved, so it was impossible for her to have touched her brother Ma Jinghang.

"By the looks of your brother, I’d advise taking him to the hospital soon, before his hand becomes useless."
