Chapter 735: Climbing the Window

This really hit home, and what’s even more disheartening is that he thought it made sense. Back then, their relationship with Wanwan was definitely strained, otherwise, he wouldn't have just been sneaking around following her. In this situation, Mom would be anything but satisfied with him.

Thinking about this, Bo Jingzhou pursed his lips and remained silent.

Shen Wanci saw that he looked dejected and disheartened, afraid that he would start to overthink again. She gently rubbed his hand with her thumb, "Dad, he's just got a sharp tongue but a kind heart, he's teasing you. Mom is very happy with you."

"Hmm." Bo Jingzhou readily responded with a sound, returning her handshake.

Mr. Ginger the Second rolled his eyes. Calling himself the CEO of a listed company, he acted like an idiot. He believed such fake comfort. As he was complaining in his heart, Thin Jingzhou suddenly turned his head and met his gaze. A thin layer of smile flickered in the man's eyes, without any sign of dejection.

"……”

That damn thing, it's quite good at acting pitiful. It knows that Wan Ci will soften her heart and feel sorry for it.

After descending the mountain, it was already dark. The sky was gloomy, as if snow was about to fall. Bo Jingzhou sent them back. Just as they reached the door, Master Jiang Er stopped him: "Just stop here. We'll go inside ourselves."

Bo Jingzhou didn't stop the car, only slowing down: "Dad, the divorce formalities still have a week. Wanwan has trouble sleeping in a new place and gets headaches. How about we go back to Yuting Garden for these few days? We can move over here again the day before the wedding?"

Master Jiang glanced at him and asked, "Do you think my face is a little swollen? These abacus beads smashed into my face. Lately, porcelain hasn't even recognized her crib when she takes her afternoon nap, but after going out with you, she recognizes it right away? Shouldn't you reflect on yourself? Are you not good to her, that she doesn't even feel safe sleeping?"

““……”Bo Jingzhou didn't expect to be able to successfully take Wanwan back from Old Master Jiang's hands. He took a step back and said, "Then can I stay for a meal? It's quite a distance from Yu Ting Courtyard here, and there's no aunt at home. Now it's dinner time..."

It doesn't matter if he eats or not, he just wants to create an opportunity to spend more time with Wanwan. Thinking about the fact that they wouldn't see each other for a whole week after this made him agitated. While others who got their marriage certificates and completed their weddings walked towards a bright and prosperous path of happiness, his father-in-law was pleased with him more and more with every glance. But he was full of thorns wherever he went, pricking himself everywhere he touched.

Shen Wanci was just about to agree when Second Master Jiang interrupted, "There's a restaurant just right after you turn out the door. I tried it once and it tasted pretty good. You can have a meal there and go back later. Considering you drove me around all afternoon, I'll reimburse your meal expenses." He walked away. Wanci got out of the car. The servant had just sent a message saying that dinner was ready and waiting for them to return.

"Dad, there are so many dishes we can't finish..."

She still wanted to say a few words for Bo Jingzhou, but Lao Er had already pushed the car door open and pushed her out: "Where can't you finish eating? I walked for an afternoon and now I'm so hungry I could eat a whole cow."

Shen Wanci looked inside the car. Bo Jingzhou was looking at her pitifully. Elder ginger, like a matchmaker separating lovers, shifted sideways with an expressionless face, blocking the two's eye contact: “Don't always feel sorry for him. He won't be missing for long, and it won't make any difference to his health. He's deliberately acting weak and pitiful in front of you. In relationships, the one who is soft-hearted often gets hurt the most.”

"You should make him know that marrying you isn't easy, so he'll cherish you more in the future. Things that are easily obtained are the easiest to abandon because there wasn't much effort put into them, so throwing them away won't feel regrettable."

Is that so?

"But my mom said that relationships need mutual tolerance and compromise to last."

“So all the men your mother has met have been scumbags. With past experience, she should make him suffer more by being unable to get what he wants,” Old Master Jiang replied without thinking, patted her shoulder, and said confidently, “As a man, Dad understands men best. Trust me, I’m right.”

"...... Shen Wanci was so brainwashed that she was dizzy, she even forgot to say goodbye to Bo Jingzhou. When she reacted, he had already turned the corner and was gone from sight."

She had no choice but to send him a message, asking him to go back first.

Auntie had indeed already prepared the meal. Seeing them return, she immediately set the table: "Master and Miss have returned! Dinner is ready."

"Taste and see if you like it."

When he lived here, it wasn't often. The aunt was only found today, and with such a rushed time frame, she couldn't do everything to perfection.

Shen Wanci took a sip and nodded in praise: "It's delicious."

"Second Master Jiang happily served her dishes: "Eat more if you like it. If you're too lazy to cook on weekdays, just move to Yu Ting Pavilion and bring people with you."

After dinner, Shen Wanci returned to the bedroom. She hadn't slept well last night and was a little tired. Mr. Jiang also went to the study to deal with things.

After a few minutes, Lu Feng knocked on the study door: "Second Master, Mr. Bo climbed over the wall and came in. He seems to be going to climb Miss's window. Should we stop the people downstairs?"

Ginger the Second Master's pen paused, then he said without raising his head: "Ignore him, as if you didn't see him."

"Okay."

……

In the room.

Shen Wanci was holding her pajamas and just about to go take a shower when she heard two loud "bang bang" knocks on the window. At this hour, who could possibly be climbing in?

She walked over, pulled open the curtains, and outside was indeed Bo Jingzhou.

"...."

Shen Wanci opened the sliding door lock, and as soon as she pulled the door open a crack, the man eagerly squeezed in. He reached out and hugged her, burying his head on her shoulder and murmured softly, "Wanwan, I haven't seen you all day, I miss you so much."

Hearing the deep hurt in his voice, she spoke up to remind him, "We just broke up."

She originally wanted to go to the balcony to see how he climbed up, but she was held by Bo Jingzhou and couldn't break free, so she temporarily suppressed this idea.

"I was just a driver this afternoon, I didn't really talk to you much, it wasn't like we met," he held her for a long time, reluctantly letting go: "How about we move the wedding up?"

Although he was just saying it casually, with only days left before the wedding, everything had already been arranged. Changing anything at this point was impossible: "The invitations have already been sent out. Do you want to take them back and resend them?"

As soon as Bao Jingzhou thought about the fact that there were still six days after today, he felt like time was dragging on: "Shall I pick you up from work tomorrow? We can go to the movies, 11 o'clock... I'll send you back before 12 o'clock, okay?"

He leaned in and kissed her lips, as if she were some sweet treat he couldn't get enough of.

Shen Wanci didn't let him change the subject: "How did you get up here?"
