Chapter 1748: That Day Won’t Come
Raising an eyebrow, she took another bite of the bun.
Old Lady Bo picked up another bun and placed it in front of her. “Have another one.”
Lou Ruoyi peeled an egg and handed it to her. “Don’t forget to eat the egg.”
The servant stood rooted to the ground with a strange expression.
She had long known that Old Master Bo had a bad temper. When the servants mentioned him, their expressions changed.
Moreover, the recent series of events had a negative impact on the Bo family and Young Master.
Now that she had come personally, why were they so calm?
“Madam, Madam, aren’t you... going out to welcome them?”
Old Lady Bo frowned and said, “Who does he think he is? Why should I welcome him? This isn’t his mansion, and he won’t be welcomed. He can go wherever he comes from!”
His cold and angry voice was loud and clear.
...
The old man, who had just been welcomed into the living room by a servant, happened to hear this and his expression darkened.
The servant was shocked and stammered, “But, that’s Old Master...”
“Even the emperor isn’t as important as my granddaughter-in-law’s breakfast! If he can afford to wait, then wait. If he can’t, then get him to scram. He’s already annoying. Do I have to worship him?”
The servant almost fell to the ground in fear.
The old lady had always been a lukewarm person. She spoke gently and elegantly, and she was always pleasant to Madam and Young Madam. To her knowledge, she had never expected the old lady to say such bold words.
Shen Fanxing chewed on the bun while her heart skipped a beat.
All these years, how had the two of them survived peacefully?
1
She had always thought that Grandma was a kind and loving person, but now she knew...
Yes, none of the women in the Bo family were to be trifled with.
“Don’t choke. Have some porridge.”
Lou Ruoyi reminded Shen Fanxing calmly.
Shen Fanxing obeyed and obediently took two sips.
The more Lou Ruoyi looked at Shen Fanxing, the more she liked her.
In the past, when they first met, although she was a little at a loss when facing her, it was not difficult to tell that she was a cold and indifferent person.
In reality, Fanxing was still the businesswoman who made people turn pale.
But who would have thought that such a cold and unsmiling woman would be such a gentle and obedient little woman at home?
“My daughter-in-law is really obedient and beautiful. What did that brat Jingchuan do in his previous life to be able to marry you?”
Old Lady Bo snorted. “Me, me, it’s me! This is all my credit. If not for me, they might never have met! You wouldn’t have such an outstanding daughter-in-law, let alone become a grandmother so quickly!”
Lou Ruoyi smiled happily and said, “Yes, yes, yes. Thank you so much for connecting Jinchuan and Fanxing! When your great-grandson is born, I’ll definitely let them be the first to teach your great-grandmother.”
When Old Master Bo, who had an ugly expression on his face, heard Lou Ruoyi’s words, his eyebrows twitched. He glanced at the kitchen and leaned on his walking stick as he leaned his ear towards the kitchen.
The servant at the side: “...”
Lou Ruoyi’s words made the old lady smile happily. Then, she raised her hand like a primary school student and said,
“I’ll apply! Let me name my great-grandson!”
Shen Fanxing paused.
The child’s name...
She wondered if Bo Jinchuan had any thoughts.
“That’s hard to say. Why don’t you take the nickname?” Lou Ruoyi was unwilling. She was afraid that the old lady would name herself Bo Jianye, Bo Dabing, or Bo Erhu.
It was a nightmare.
“No, no! I’m an elder, so of course I should be the one to name them. Don’t worry, I’ll think about it later. I’ll let you choose from a few more...”
Lou Ruoyi pouted unhappily. “Then let me have one. You can choose one and I’ll choose one.”
As the two of them spoke, Shen Fanxing had already finished the second bun. She took two mouthfuls of porridge and said in a low voice,
“Then... what about my qualifications with Ah Chuan?”
Old Lady Bo and Lou Ruoyi turned to look at her and said in unison,
“That’s simple. When the time comes, you can have a few more children. If you think the name is good, prepare to give birth.”
1
Shen Fanxing was speechless.
Was she giving birth for the sake of her name?
Weren’t these two’s thoughts a little strange?
“Anyway, I’ve reserved my great-grandson’s name in advance.”
“I’ll reserve one too.”
Shen Fanxing was speechless.
Seeing that his great-grandson’s name had been reserved, Old Master Bo, who had been hiding at the door, frowned deeply and deliberately coughed heavily.
The few of them turned around and saw Old Master Bo’s dark expression. The smiles on their faces turned cold.
“You guys...”
Just as Old Master Bo spoke, the few of them turned their heads and ignored him.
The old man’s beard twitched in anger. “What kind of attitude is this?!”
Neither the old lady nor Lou Ruoyi responded.
Shen Fanxing sat facing the entrance of the dining room as she stared at the old man. There was a hint of coldness and sarcasm in her eyes.
Old Master Bo narrowed his eyes at her. “What are you looking at? Do you think everyone is on your side?”
Shen Fanxing smirked and said, “You’re thinking too much. I was just thinking about the baby’s name. It has nothing to do with you.”
The old man’s face darkened. “You have no right to decide the names of the Bo family’s descendants!”
With a loud bang, a blue and white porcelain bowl shattered under Old Master Bo’s feet.
Shen Fanxing was shocked by the sudden noise.
Before she could react, the old lady said coldly,
“What you said is simply outrageous!”
Lou Ruoyi grabbed Shen Fanxing’s hand and patted her comfortingly.
“You...” The old man didn’t expect her to explode suddenly in front of so many juniors.
She felt a little embarrassed.
“Are you crazy!?”
“You’re the one who has a problem with your brain!” The old lady continued to shout angrily, “What do you mean by it’s not up to Fanxing to decide who the descendants of your Bo family are? Who is your Bo family’s descendant? Why did you come here to make your presence known? You don’t even know that you’re attracting attention and you think you’re quite superior? Go back to your Bo residence and play with your chauvinism! They flatter you and treat you as a person. We don’t have this obligation. Who here has anything to do with you?! You’re looking for trouble and excitement. Do you want to live too long?”
1
Shen Fanxing’s mouth fell open in shock.
This...
Was she still the Grandma she remembered?
The old master was so angry that his face turned ashen and his body trembled.
“You... you’re really good... very good...”
“She... the child in her stomach belongs to Jinchuan. She’s a descendant of the Bo family...”
“Don’t flatter yourself!” The old lady interrupted him. “What has Jinchuan got to do with you? His child is a descendant of your Bo family? Aren’t you very capable? If you have the ability, chase Jinchuan out. If you have the ability, give birth to a great-grandson for the Bo family yourself! There’s no descendant of the Bo family that you want here!”
Old Master Bo couldn’t withstand the Old Lady’s verbal attacks. Every time, she had the upper hand and he didn’t even have the chance to interrupt.
1
Now that the old lady had scolded him, he could only point at her with trembling fingers.
“You... You’re simply...”
“Get lost!”
Old Lady Bo threw another word at him coldly. She was really merciless.
Shen Fanxing felt awkward. This was the first time she had seen such a scene.
She didn’t even dare to look at the old man’s expression. This... No matter how a man was treated by a woman, he would feel ashamed, right?
Glancing at Lou Ruoyi, he saw that her face was calm, as if she was used to this.
Could it be that such a scene between the two elders was common in the past?
No matter what, this old lady had really broadened her horizons today.
With Old Master’s sudden arrival today, she could more or less guess his motive.
One would not visit without a reason.
Either she had caused the Bo family and Bo Jinchuan’s reputation to be negatively affected, or he was here to settle scores with her.
Or he had come for the child in her stomach.
After all, he was indeed part of the Bo family.
Because of the child’s existence, he might be able to acknowledge her relationship with Bo Jinchuan and let her give him a way out. She would be grateful to him for his magnanimity.
It wasn’t that she was petty. Based on her understanding of this old man, he would never admit his mistake.
1
However, she understood that despite her thoughtfulness, the old lady was surprised.
There was no point in beating him up.
1
He felt that agreeing to let her enter the Bo family was a huge blessing to her. However, Old Madam, you can go wherever you want. They didn’t care about the Bo family at all.
What else was there to discuss?
There was no room for him to speak.
The old man stood rooted to the ground, unable to step down.
Shen Fanxing pursed her lips and sat there silently.
The entire room was so quiet that no one dared to breathe loudly.
“Why are you still standing there like an obstacle? Let me tell you, Bo Qifeng, you value the Bo family more than anything else. Sure! I can’t make the decision for you, but I definitely won’t allow you to waste my grandson’s life in any way. Go back and protect your Bo Consortium. We deserve to be mediocre and useless!”
Old Lady Bo’s voice was no longer as cold and angry as before. At this moment, she was as calm as if she wasn’t her.
Old Master Bo looked at her coldly. “You women have been mediocre and useless all your lives. You’re simply selfish!”
He suddenly pointed at Shen Fanxing and said in a low voice, “How can you be sure that all men think the same? You can have anything you want, but how can a man let you lead a mediocre and incompetent life? Are you too stupid or too naive to think that the world is so beautiful? Without wealth and power, how can there be peace?”
“Have you ever thought about the dignity of men? Have you ever thought that they have their own ambitions and ambitions? Jinchuan gave up the Bo Consortium for him. Now, people can discuss and mock him unscrupulously. Think about who dared to say that about him in the past?”
“Wei Li, have I protected you too well all these years? Is that why you’re still so naive?”
Lady Bo pursed her lips tightly, her face cold.
Old Master Bo looked at her sadly. “Jingchuan has fallen so low for the sake of love. Have you ever thought about what he will bring to her when the child comes out? Do you want his child to be like him, mediocre and useless?”
“You don’t have to worry about me.”
Not long after the old man finished speaking, a cold and indifferent voice sounded from behind.
Everyone looked over to see Bo Jinchuan standing there in a suit.
“What did you say? Even now, you still haven’t reflected on yourself?! What do you think you can leave for your child now?!”
“I naturally have something that they can be absolutely proud of. What others have, they will definitely have. What others don’t have, they will definitely have! You don’t have to remind me of these. I haven’t considered what you’ve thought of at all. If you’re still the Bo Consortium’s leader this time, then there’s no need for you to say anything.”
“You’re simply stubborn!”
Old Master Bo was utterly disappointed. After such a long time, reality had not changed him at all.
How sad.
After a long while, he sneered. “You’re young and frivolous. Do you think you’re capable enough? Even if she’s the princess of Country Y and can help you save a few years of hard work, if you want to have the current status of the Bo Consortium, no matter how capable and capable you are, you’ll probably have to work hard for decades!”
“You want to give them something that they can be proud of? How shameless!”
After saying that, Old Master Bo turned around and walked to his side, staring at him coldly.
“Look at your current situation. How do you feel after being mocked like that? Don’t you understand? What have you lost after leaving the Bo family?!”
Bo Jinchuan lowered his gaze and said calmly,
“The Bo Consortium is good, but it’s really not worth my time to hear how magnificent it is. Moreover, I don’t think there’s anything in the Bo Consortium that’s worthy of your pride.”
“Since I decided to leave the Bo Consortium back then, I never thought that I would return in disgrace because I couldn’t survive. So don’t think about using the Bo Consortium to tempt me. To be honest, everything about the Bo Consortium doesn’t appeal to me.”
Old Master gripped his walking stick so tightly that his entire body was trembling. The skin on his face twitched uncontrollably.
“Good, you’re really good. You’re stubborn and unrepentant! I’ll wait for the day you come back to beg me!”

Bo Jinchuan chuckled softly, his dark eyes filled with disapproval as he looked at him helplessly.
“Don’t worry, that day won’t come.”
It was a simple sentence, but it revealed absolute arrogance and confidence.
