of men's leather shoes and children's shoes. The pink slippers stood out strikingly among them.Shen Ning's gaze paused for a moment before quickly looking away.The maid bent down at the side shoe cabi...Shen Ningran nodded.

This is also the reason why you need to talk to me alone.

"Just to be safe, it's best to tread carefully. Until we figure things out, everyone is a suspect."

You are thoughtful, but you don't understand my eldest son. He doesn't have the guts for this.

"Human hearts are unfathomable. The Bo family's wealth is worth fighting for with all their might, no matter the cost, even if it means siblings turning against each other."

Shen Ningran had seen too much scheming and intrigue. One, Bi Yanqing, was even willing to get plastic surgery for the sake of seizing her family's property, let alone Bo Mingjun who might kill his own brother for it.

This point Shen Ningran saw through, and Old Master Bo must have seen through it as well.

The old master glanced at Shen Ningran, "You've said so much to me today, isn't it because you want me to stop stopping you two from being together"

Shen Ningran couldn't deny it, "But I also know you love Bo Jinyu and think of him in everything you do. Bo Jinyu knows this too. That's why I don't want to make Bo Jinyu uncomfortable between us anymore."

"If you can prove that this matter clears your mother of any involvement in James' death, then I would allow you to be together"

Shen Ningran lightly pulled at her lips, "I said, a harmonious family is the foundation of everything. You can't change the fact that Bo Jinyu loves me, nor can you change the fact that I am Bo Jinyu's child's mother."

I truly hope you can let go of your hatred for my mother and stop preventing me from being with Bo Jinyu.

"As for this mastermind behind the scenes, I will also do my best to investigate and give you an explanation."

The old master looked at Shen Ningran, his eyes no longer holding the resentment they had before.

"You're trying to help, but this is a matter for my family. The Bo family will handle it ourselves. As for you and Ajin, even if I didn't stop you, you two probably wouldn't be able to be together right now."

"Knock knock."

Two knocks on the door sounded.

Old Master Thin gave Shen Ningran a meaningful look.

Shen Ningran quickly tidied up the things on the table and put them in her bag.

The old master glanced out the door. "Who is it"

"Grandpa, it's me," was Bo Qi's voice.

The old master's eyes rolled, "Come in."

Bo Qi came in with a plate of fruit, "Grandpa."

"Didn't I say that no one was allowed to disturb me What are you doing here at this time"

Bo Qi brought a simple smile, "Grandpa, I just cut some fruit and specially brought it to you. Try it, it's so sweet."

Bo Qi's eyes flashed, and he glanced at the two of them.

"Let go and get out."

Bo Qi pursed her lips. Since the old man had said so, she could only go out first.

Bao Cheng stood outside and saw Bao Qi come out, asking, "What were they talking about"

"I don't know, I didn't hear anything."

Bo Cheng narrowed his eyes, "This Shen Ningran is so secretive. I wonder what she told Grandpa."

"Shen Ningran just wants Grandpa to stop preventing her from being with her cousin. What else is there to worry about, brother You're overthinking it."

Shen Ningran walked out of the study and glanced at the two people. The eyes of the two people also happened to fall on her.

Shen Ningran retracted her gaze and left directly.

Bao Cheng narrowed his eyes and followed Shen Ningran.

"Miss Shen, please wait."

Hearing the sound behind her, Shen Ningran's steps came to a halt. Seeing that Bo Cheng had caught up, she raised an eyebrow, "What is it"

Bo Cheng's gaze swept over Shen Ningran with a malicious glint in his eyes.

Every time she was stared at by Bo Cheng's gaze, Shen Ningran felt very uncomfortable and instinctively took a step back.

Bao Cheng smiled. "I just wanted to ask Miss Shen, did your grandfather make things difficult for you"

"This has nothing to do with you, I don't know you."

Bo Cheng's indifference towards Shen Ningran was evident as he took a step closer, "Unfamiliar Last time at the Imperial Banquet, I got drunk…"

Shen Ning stared at him coldly, "You dare to bring up the Emperor with me Haven't you gotten enough beatings"

Bo Cheng chuckled lightly, leaning towards Shen Ningran and extending his hand. "Actually, Miss Shen, there's no need to be so distant, is there Your cousin doesn't want you anymore, why not come with me I'm much kinder than Bo Jin Yu. Whatever he gives you, I'll double it."

Before Bo Cheng's fingertips could touch Shen Ning Ran, she directly grasped his hand.

Bo Cheng lightly raised an eyebrow, smirked and wanted to directly grasp Shen Ningran's hand. Shen Ningran also lightly raised her eyebrows, turned around, and grasped his hand with a forceful squeeze.

"Bam!" a beautiful over-the-shoulder throw.

Bo Cheng hadn't figured out what happened, his brain was dazed and he lay on the ground, grimacing.

Shen Ningran looked down at the people below with a bright smile, "Want to buy me Why don't you weigh yourself and see what you are You even want to compare yourself to Bo Jin Yu, are you worthy"

"Shen Ningran, you..."

Bo Cheng clutched his aching lower back, staring intently at the woman's departing figure.

“Dead woman, you wait for me, I’ll get to you eventually.”

Shen Ningran walked out of the Bo family step by step, got into a car, took a deep breath, and her phone rang.

Shi Qi'an.

Shen Ningran glanced at the call and answered. Knowing Shen Ningran had returned to the capital, Ji Qi'an didn't beat around the bush, saying directly: "You're back in the capital, right"

"It's Jiang Li again, isn't it What have you given her that she tells you everything"

"Hey, we're at least partners now, aren't we You're not going to tell your partner anything"

Shen Ningran connected Bluetooth, started the car, and smiled wryly. "Who has a partner who keeps watching each other's whereabouts"

"I'm serious, you have to come to my grandmother's birthday party tomorrow night."

Shěn Níng Rǎn glanced at the time, "Tomorrow"

"Will you be busy tomorrow"

After a moment's thought, Shen Ningran said: "It's okay, you give me an invitation. Otherwise, I'm afraid I won't be able to get in."

"Just use your face."

"Okay." Hanging up the phone, Shen Ningran drove home.

……

The elderly Mr. Bao in the study hadn't recovered yet, looking at Bo Mingjian's photo, Mr. Bao's eyes welled up with tears.

"Ming-Jan, don't worry, Dad will definitely find the murderer who hurt you. Dad will definitely not let him go."

"Father," Zhou Zhiruo softly called out behind the frail old man.

The old man wiped the tears from his eyes, put the picture frame back in place, and turned to Zhou Zhiruo, "How did you come here"

"Dad, are you... alright"

"It's okay, what's up"

Zhou Zhiruan pursed her lips, "Now that Shen Ningran is back, I want to tell you about A-Jin and Shen Ningran."

"You don't want me to stop them anymore."

Zhou Zhiruo nodded, "Two children need both a father and a mother. You should just let them go for the sake of the children."

This year, because you didn't want Ajin to see Shen Ningran, you even let her take away the two children. You also made Ajin forget about Shen Ningran. Your purpose was achieved, but this year you also saw that Ajin wasn't happy. As Shen Ningran said, a happy family is essential for everything else. Please let them go.

The old master raised his eyes and glanced at Zhou Zhiruo, saying nothing, as if considering something.

Zhou Zhiru continued, "And the woman you arranged to be by Ajin's side, Lin Yimi, I now clearly tell you, I dislike that woman being around Ajin. She has no family background and her conduct is not good, she is not worthy of Ajin."

She is the daughter of Gu Gengting.

But you know, she's not Gu Gengting's biological daughter, she's just his adopted daughter in name only.

"Since Gu Gengting had no children, the only daughter who called him father was of great importance to him."

"No, Dad, you don't actually think that way. You just know Gu Gengting's wife, Gong Shulan. You want Gong Shulan and her daughter to be unhappy, so you help this mother-daughter pair."

Zhou Zhiruo saw it too clearly, so she disagreed.

The grievances of the previous generation have greatly affected Bo Jinyu and them. If she doesn't take action, Bo Jinyu's happiness will truly be ruined by Old Master Bo.

Old Master Bo furrowed his brows, deep in thought.

After a long silence, he sighed: "As long as Shen Ningran has the ability to return to Ajin's side, I will no longer intervene."

Now he also didn't have the energy to stop them. Bo Mingjian's death was not an accident; he had to find out the person behind it and make them pay for his son.

Zhou Zhiruo's face showed a hint of surprise when she heard the old man say this.

Grandpa agreed too quickly, didn't he

"Don't you really stop it"

"But you are not allowed to interfere, let fate take its course."

Zhou Zhiran knew this was the greatest concession the old man had made. She eagerly agreed while also curiously wondering what Shen Ningran had said to the old man that caused him to change his mind.

……

The next day, it was Old Mrs. Ji's birthday banquet.

The banquet hall of Ji's residence was abuzz with activity at this moment.

Outside the door, a dignified Rolls-Royce slowly stopped. Zhou Chen pushed open the car door and got out, walked to the back of the car, opened the door, and respectfully said to the person in the car: "Boss, we're here."

Bo Jin Yu took the file in his hand, glanced at the time with a raised hand, his face cold and stern, then stepped out of the car.

Bo Jin'yu had rarely attended banquets this past year. He always felt a void beside him, an emptiness in his heart. Besides work, he couldn't muster any interest in anything else.

...working constantly is like numbing oneself, making those inexplicable feelings in one's heart feel a little better.

The Qi family and the Bo family have some dealings with each other; otherwise, he wouldn't come.

"Boss, the old master has arranged for Miss Lin to be your female companion tonight. Will you wait for Miss Lin"

"Not equal."

Bo Jin Yu strode towards the banquet hall, but a car slowly stopped behind him. Shen Ning Ran stepped out of the car, holding her skirt. Yu Chen and He He, two little mischievous children, ran out one on each side to help Shen Ning Ran with her skirt.

"Hehehe, grinning widely, he said, "Mommy, we're here. Daddy isn't around, so we're the manly men by Mommy's side."

Yuchen nodded. "Right, right."

Shen Ningran watched as the two little ones acted gentlemanly, realizing that these two kids had become much more mature over the past year.

"Your dad will be back tonight, let's go home after we finish dinner, okay"

"Good." The little ones nodded in unison, their hearts filled with anticipation and joy.
