Chapter 422
Chapter 422: Chapter 422
Shen Xun’s roar of rage had just burst out when Su Zhe felt like he had been blessed with sudden insight. Despite the predicament they now found themselves in, it was undeniable that he and Shen Xun indeed... still shared an unparalleled understanding.
So the moment Shen Xun’s roar rang out, Su Zhe understood why Yida and Wu Hui were so cautious, why Shen Xun and Bo Jingshen were in such a hurry, why Shen Xun was so tense.
In that instant of understanding, Su Zhe pulled Su Lu behind him, shielding his sister with his own body.
Actually, these events unfolded in a very short span of time. Bo Jingshen and Shen Xun arrived quickly, and Song Boyuan, appearing relaxed, slid his hands into his pockets. As soon as Su Zhe saw this gesture and heard Song Boyuan’s roar, he immediately pulled Su Lu to safety behind him.
Su Lu was stunned. "Bro...brother, what’s wrong?" noveldrama
Su Zhe’s face was pale, his voice muffled and low, barely above a whisper, "Now I know how crazy he is..."
Su Lu, confused, asked, "What...?"
Su Zhe forced three words through clenched teeth, "He has a gun!"
Inside his trouser pocket!
Otherwise, what else could make Shen Xun, Yida, and Wu Hui so nervous?
Su Lu’s entire body shuddered, realizing that all her previous feelings about Song Boyuan were correct; this man was danger personified!
Once it was known what he was carrying on him, looking at his trouser pocket again, it didn’t seem difficult to discern; indeed, there was a bulge, originally thought to be a wallet or a phone or car keys, but it turned out to be...
"He...has he gone mad?" Su Lu murmured.
Bo Jingshen’s brow furrowed deeply as he said gravely, "Song Boyuan, stop being insane! What are you trying to do?"
Song Boyuan gave a low chuckle, a smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes, his lips curled in a mocking sneer. He looked at Bo Jingshen, "So you knew I was mad? If that’s the case, then you fucking should stay out of my business! You actually took my man away, hid him here? If I didn’t know you were Qiaoqiao’s brother, with my temperament, I would’ve taken your woman too, locked her away to the ends of the earth, to let you know what it feels like."
Bo Jingshen’s brow creased even more tightly at these words, "What exactly do you want to do?"
"Give me Jing Qiao," Song Boyuan gave an answer without a second’s hesitation, then sneered, "I have no interest in any of you, as long as you don’t provoke me, don’t bother me."
Jing Qiao stood rooted to the spot as if her soul had been sucked out.
Bo Jingshen’s frown deepened, "Impossible."
Song Boyuan’s lips twisted into a half-smile, "You’d better think it over again. After all, you’re a man with a wife and children."
Bo Jingshen’s eyes twitched, and he looked up to glare coldly at him, about to speak.
And at that moment, Jing Qiao, who had been standing still as if soulless,
was perhaps struck by that sentence; her body trembled slightly, and her downcast eyes suddenly lifted to face Song Boyuan, "Say that again?"
Her voice was still the same, calm and flat. Soft to the extent that it might even seem gentle.
But her eyes were void of any warmth, she looked at Song Boyuan coldly.
Just looking, just a straightforward five words.
Su Lu was astonished to find that this Song Boyuan, this ruthless man capable of standing against so many without falling short, was unexpectedly silenced by Jing Qiao’s simple five words.
He did not repeat himself.
Despite how inconceivable it was, Su Lu still felt that Song Boyuan seemed to be... afraid? To say it again.
He was actually afraid...
"Qiaoqiao, I..."
"You say that again? He’s a man with a wife and children now, so what? What do you want to do?" Jing Qiao tugged at the corner of her mouth, a clearly not a smile but an arc filled with irony, "Use his wife and children as a threat? Just like you did with me before? You really have learned from experience, Song Boyuan."
Song Boyuan pursed his lips and said no more, his perfectly shaped phoenix eyes lowered, hiding the emotions within.
But in the moment his eyes were cast down, Su Lu, who had been staring intently at Song Boyuan, clearly saw that look of utter disarray in his eyes.
This was truly...
Su Lu felt that matters of the heart were really just between two people, as personal as knowing one’s own feelings when drinking water.
What others say doesn’t matter, and saying too much is just cold comfort.
The real situation, the hidden feelings, were only known by the two involved.
"Come back with me," Song Boyuan’s voice softened, as if there was not too much of a difference in either tone or sound from before, but when his voice softened, it seemed not so cold and hard.
"There’s nowhere in this world I can return to," Jing Qiao said indifferently. "Rather, you should return to where you came from."
Song Boyuan’s jaw tensed, clearly grinding his teeth in silence, and then he said in a deep voice, "Then I can’t care too much about it, you call me despicable, you say I’ve learned from experience? Anything goes, up to you."
The implication of his words seemed to be an intent to harm Bo Jingshen’s wife and children.
Bo Jingshen let out a cold laugh, "Do you think I’m afraid of you?"
"You’d better be..." Song Boyuan hadn’t finished his sentence.
"Slap!" A crisp, sharp sound cut off his voice.
His face was slapped to the side, and he maintained the sideways posture for three seconds, then slowly turned his face back, red finger marks gradually rising on his pale cheek.
"Shameless." Jing Qiao swung her hand, letting it hang at her side, her fingers still trembling slightly.
Song Boyuan touched his cheek with the tip of his tongue, then, as if oblivious to the slap, he took her hand, "Let’s go."
Bo Jingshen called out to Jing Qiao, "Qiao."
Jing Qiao lifted her gaze to him, lightly tugging at the corner of her lips, attempting to show her brother a smile, but failing.
She thought for a moment and said softly, "I’m fine, really. I had anticipated it, haven’t I? When you took me out... I said as much."
In an instant, Bo Jingshen thought back to the time Jing Su brought Jing Qiao out of Beijing and sent her to Feng City. Bo Jingshen was there to receive her, and upon receiving her, she was so skinny, completely unrecognizable, and in extreme distress.
She smiled at him very bitterly, looking utterly spiritless, her vitality seeming like it could be scattered by a mere breeze.
She had then told Bo Jingshen, "Brother, I feel like I can’t escape, that I will be trapped by Song Boyuan for my whole life, unless I die."
At that time, Jing Qiao had actually anticipated that Song Boyuan would not only refuse to let her go, but would trap her.
Her heart had also long been trapped by Song Boyuan, unable to break free, doomed to an unhappy end.
Seeing them like this, Su Lu realized that what she knew might still be too one-sided, and at this moment, she became somewhat curious about what exactly had happened between Jing Qiao and Song Boyuan...
