CHAPTER 950: CHAPTER 736: LIKING YOU SINCE THE FIRST GLANCE 77
In the video, Jian Dan appears thin and frail, but she was undeniably there that night—it was definitely her.
Zhao Linlin had been terrified, waiting for Lin Ye to come home. To be precise, the moment she opened the door and saw Bo Qin, she knew the truth had come out.
Trembling, she invited this formidable figure inside, served him the best tea, and only then did she call Lin Ye, almost on the verge of tears.
She was truly scared of Bo Qin, but still brazenly dared to deceive Jian Dan. The thought of it made her feel both bold and reckless.
So when Lin Ye came home, he saw Zhao Linlin standing by the door like a frightened puppy, wanting nothing more than to cling to him with tears in her eyes.
He couldn’t help but smile wryly, ruffling her hair, "Go to the room. Let me handle this."
Zhao Linlin glanced furtively at Bo Qin, whispering to Lin Ye, "Do you think he might kill you?
I always thought Mr. Bo was the big boss, and you’re just a small fry, unable to take the hits."
Lin Ye’s brow twitched, "Haven’t you had enough trouble?"
Zhao Linlin scampered away, tail between her legs.
Not a bone of defiance in her.
Lin Ye chuckled, rubbed his brow, changed his shoes, and sat opposite Bo Qin, getting straight to the point, "It seems Mr. Bo knows everything now."
Bo Qin’s gaze was heavy, filled with murderous intent.
Lin Ye wasn’t bothered, though the intense gaze was uncomfortable. He could endure it for a while.
...
Lin Ye knew Bo Qin must have discovered quite a lot, so he recounted everything from start to finish.
"That’s how it is. At that time, we gave her the choice. Within the estimated range, if she hadn’t been willing, you wouldn’t have touched her."
So, Jian Dan chose to stay willingly. Not only that, but she also forbid them from speaking of it. As Zhao Linlin’s good friend, it was clear whom Zhao Linlin would help. And being a henpecked husband, Lin Ye naturally helped whoever his wife told him to help.
Even if he had to face a situation like today, it was fine; Bo Qin wouldn’t resort to murder after all.
Bo Qin’s gaze was deep, unfathomably so, causing a moment of chilling dread, "So, should I thank you then?"
Lin Ye trembled inside, "There’s no need for thanks. But, Mr. Bo, there’s no need to settle scores either. If we hadn’t rescued you, you might have ended up as Pei Family’s young lady’s feast."
Bo Qin’s expression darkened further.
That conspiracy was a humiliation in his life, and it involved Jian Dan as well. His feelings were a mix beyond words.
"So Jian Dan only asked for a leave of absence because she realized she was pregnant?"
Lin Ye raised his eyebrows, "Mr. Bo, haven’t you already reached a conclusion in your heart? Whether it’s true or not, you already know. Why ask again?"
The child in Jian Dan’s belly was his.
Isn’t that obvious?
The timing fits.
Everything fits.
Plus, Jian Dan’s guilty conscience prevented her from seeing him.
Taking a deep breath, Bo Qin didn’t know whether to be angry or to laugh, "So, it’s my fault then."
Lin Ye shook his head, "Mr. Bo, Jian Dan has been on edge. What you need to do now is to take care of her well. Her mood impacts her childbirth risk. If you didn’t care about her, you wouldn’t have investigated these things;
At that time, if it weren’t Jian Dan, we would have found someone else for you. It just happened that Jian Dan was there, and you didn’t mind it."
Not just not minding, Lin Ye found the whole situation quite astonishing even now.
"Thank you."
Bo Qin was a proud person; he rarely expressed gratitude or apologies, making this thank you sincere and weighty.
Lin Ye was momentarily stunned, then shook his head, "Mr. Bo, no need for politeness. After all, Jian Dan is Linlin’s good friend. I’m already grateful you don’t blame Linlin and let this matter go."
Bo Qin said nothing. Strictly speaking, it was also his fault. If he hadn’t been careless, this whole series of events wouldn’t have happened.
Who would have thought Jian Dan would end up here?
She helped him avert a disaster.
After Bo Qin left, Lin Ye breathed a sigh of relief, closed the door, and turned to see Zhao Linlin standing at the room door, peeking out cautiously.
Lin Ye snorted, "You never seem this scared and careful around me. Why such a big reaction to Bo Qin? Is he a cat and you’re a mouse?"
Zhao Linlin pounced, clinging to Lin Ye, holding his face and examining him, "I can’t believe it, Lin Ye, you actually survived."
