Chapter 166 Let's get married.
Lin Qingran did not speak, but her silence answered Bo Ye's question.
Susukino's eyes blazed with fury, and he clenched his fists.
Suddenly, Fu Xiuheng came out of the restroom.
Bo Ye stared intently at Fu Xiuheng not far away, his teeth clenched, anger about to overwhelm his reason.
Fu Xiuheng was clearly taken aback, but he quickly put on a provocative expression, his lips curling up, his contemptuous eyes seemingly declaring his victory to Bo Ye.
Unable to bear it any longer, Susukino raised his foot to rush over.
The anger in his heart burned in every nerve, and he just wanted to vent all his anger and dissatisfaction at this moment.
However, Lin Qingran reached out and tightly grabbed Bo Ye's arm.
Her eyes were filled with anxiety, and her voice was low.
"Don't be impulsive. There are many business leaders present at the banquet today. It's best not to make things too ugly."
Bo Ye turned his head and glared fiercely at Fu Xiuheng, the anger in his eyes seeming to devour him.
"He's gone too far! Am I supposed to just swallow this insult? I can suffer injustice, but you can't!"
Lin Qingran gripped her hand even tighter, her voice tinged with pleading.
"For the sake of the company, we must bear with it. Now is not the time; we cannot let everyone laugh at us."
Bo Ye's chest heaved violently as he looked at Lin Qingran, his anger gradually replaced by helplessness.
He knew Lin Qingran was right, but the resentment in his heart felt like a huge rock, making it hard for him to breathe.
Fu Xiuheng sneered and turned to leave.
He won't give up on Lin Qingran easily.
Upon realizing this, Susukino felt as if he were in an ice cellar, his heart turning to ice.
He watched Fu Xiuheng's smug back, then glanced at Lin Qingran beside him, who looked worried, and finally forced himself to swallow his anger.
After the hustle and bustle of the party subsided, the city lights rushed past the car window.
The two sat in the car in silence the entire way.
Upon arriving at the hotel, Bo Ye walked straight into the room without saying a word and slammed the door shut behind him.
Lin Qingran stood in the living room, looking at the closed door, and sighed softly.
She knew that Bo Ye's anger had not yet subsided. After hesitating for a moment, she walked to the door and knocked gently.
"Leave me alone!" came Susukino's angry roar from inside the house.
Lin Qingran's hand froze in mid-air. "Open the door, let's have a proper talk."
There was no response from inside; only a deathly silence.
Lin Qingran knocked on the door again, her tone unconsciously carrying a hint of panic.
"Just open the door, okay?"
But her response was still a firm refusal from Susukino: "I told you, don't bother me!"
Lin Qingran slowly removed her hand from the closed door, her heart filled with a mixture of surprise and disappointment.
She never imagined that Bo Ye, who had always been gentle and tolerant towards her, would so resolutely refuse her advances this time.
She walked heavily into the living room, slumped onto the sofa, and stared blankly ahead.
The light shone on her, but it couldn't dispel the gloom in her heart.
Lin Qingran frowned and fell into deep thought as the image of Fu Xiuheng's arrogant and crazy demeanor at the party kept flashing through her mind.
Fu Xiuheng was clearly prepared; he seemed to have truly lost his mind.
But how exactly should they deal with such a crazy person?
Lin Qingran racked her brains but couldn't come up with a perfect solution.
Time passed by, and the only sound in the quiet living room was Lin Qingran's soft breathing.
After an unknown amount of time, the door to the room slowly opened, and Bo Ye walked out with his head down and a face full of guilt.
He approached Lin Qingran, his voice hoarse and trembling.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have treated you like that. I was just angry at myself for not being able to protect you, it wasn't directed at you."
Lin Qingran looked up at the sound, her face still full of worry, but she forced a smile and said softly.
"I understand, I get it all."
Unable to contain his emotions any longer, Bo Ye pulled Lin Qingran into a tight embrace.
His arms were wrapped tightly around her, as if he were afraid that she would disappear if he let go.
Lin Qingran nestled tightly in Bo Ye's arms, feeling his heartbeat and body temperature.
At this moment, all the grievances, anger, and helplessness seemed to gradually dissipate in this warm embrace.
They embraced each other quietly, time seemed to stand still, and the whole world consisted only of the two of them.
Bo Ye whispered in Lin Qingran's ear, "It won't happen again. I will definitely protect you."
Lin Qingran nodded gently and wrapped her arms around Bo Ye's waist.
The two lingered in each other's arms for a long time before reluctantly parting.
Bo Ye regained some of his composure, frowned, and said with a serious expression.
"We can't let Fu Xiuheng continue like this."
“We can’t keep hiding forever, and he’s like a persistent leech, we can’t shake him off at all,” Lin Qingran said worriedly.
"But if we act rashly, we might provoke him and make him even more insane."
Bo Ye clenched his fist. "But we can't keep taking hits like this."
After thinking for a long time, Lin Qingran slowly spoke.
“I think we should start with business dealings, but this time we can’t just target Fu Xiuheng. We also need to target the other shareholders of Fu Xiuheng’s company, and even Fu Xiuheng’s family. Only when things get out of hand and other people get involved can we make Fu Xiuheng back down a little.”
After listening, Bo Ye nodded solemnly, agreeing with Lin Qingran's idea.
After a moment of contemplation, his eyes suddenly softened, and he spoke to Lin Qingran.
"Let's get married as soon as possible."
Lin Qingran was slightly taken aback, somewhat surprised that Bo Ye brought this up at this moment.
Bo Ye grasped Lin Qingran's hand, his tone sincere.
“After everything we’ve been through, I don’t want to wait any longer. Besides, if we hold the wedding now and announce it so widely, once the Fu family patriarch finds out, he probably won’t let Fu Xiuheng continue to act so recklessly, for the sake of his reputation. As long as he can restrain himself for the time being, we’ll have time to think about how to deal with him.”
Looking into Bo Ye's expectant eyes, Lin Qingran felt a warmth in her heart and nodded gently.
"Okay, let's go ahead with the wedding."
Little did they know that in another room of the hotel where they were staying, a violent storm was raging.
Fu Xiuheng's face turned ashen as he unleashed a furious rage at Lu An in front of him.
"Didn't I ask you to keep an eye on things? Why did you let Bo Ye leave the venue to find Qing Ran?"
Lu An lowered his head, trembling as he explained.
"I...I didn't expect him to suddenly rush out; I couldn't stop him at all."
Fu Xiuheng slammed his hand on the table and roared.
"Useless! You can't even handle this simple task, what use are you!"
Lu An trembled, cold sweat pouring down his forehead, and he stammered an explanation.
"I'm sorry, boss, I promise I won't make the same mistake again next time."
