ce was icy cold as she pulled her hand back from hers. "Didn't I tell you to stay away"Guan Xin Yue hesitated for a moment, then quickly smiled again. "Ah Jin, I know you're just teasing me. I really..."No, I won't drink if you don't."

Bo Jin's aversion to alcohol meant no one dared urge him to drink.

After thinking for a moment, Shen Ningran said, "How about we have dinner first and then go"

Bo Jin yu hooked her lips, "I'll do whatever you say."

After he finished speaking, he said into his phone, "You guys play first, we'll be there later."

Okay.

Shen Ningran knew that Dihuang Entertainment was the most popular place for rich young masters in the imperial capital to spend their money.

She doesn't frequent this type of place, she has only been there once or twice, and both times were with Jiang Li.

Shen Ningran was about to walk into the kitchen when Bo Jin'yu followed her in with large strides, "I'll help you."

"You" Shen Ningran looked up and down at Bo Jinyu for a few moments, hurriedly pushing him towards the door. "Don't even think about it, you're already very handsome, don't get covered in oil smoke later and have to change again."

"It's rare to hear you praise me," Bo Jin Yu smiled.

"Get out!"

"I don't mind changing again."

Shen Ning laughed softly, "Then what can you do"

What do you need me to do

Shen Ningran glanced at it and pointed to the vegetables beside her, "If you're willing, you can wash those over there."

Bo Jin Yu, walking past with the delicate cuffs of his sleeves undone, looked like a young master who had never done such work. His movements were awkward and clumsy.

But seeing the two of them there, the maids in the kitchen wisely withdrew.

"Tonight is a welcome dinner my friend just got out of prison, Xiy Yao and the others specially prepared for him."

Shen Ningran's hand paused as she sorted through things, then resumed naturally, "What crime did he commit to end up in prison"

Bo Jin's long fingers meticulously washed the vegetables, saying softly, "I killed someone for a woman."

Shen Ningran turned her head and glanced at Bo Jinyu. Hearing these words, she was slightly surprised.

She probably isn't the person she had in mind.

Shen Ningran stir-fried several home-cooked dishes, all of which Yu Chenhe loved. After calling Palace Che to eat together, Shen Ningran went upstairs to change her clothes and came down. Bo Jin yu was already sitting in the living room waiting for her.

"Let's sit for a while. When you want to come back, we'll head back early." Bo Jin Yu naturally took Shen Ning Ran's waist in his arms.

Shen Ningran nodded, "Hmm."

In the car, Shen Ningran listlessly looked out the window. Perhaps it was because of what Bo Jinyu said before the meal, a sudden realization dawned on her. Shen Ningran suddenly turned back to look at Bo Jinyu, “The friend you mentioned is called Yan Chi, right”

Thin Jin nodded, "Do you know each other"

Shen Ningran's eyebrows raised slightly.

It's him, after all!

No wonder Jiang Li has been acting strange all day and left early.

It turns out it was him who came out.

"I guess we know each other then."

Bo Jin Yu was a little surprised.

Shen Ningran sighed, "You're saying he killed someone because of a woman, that woman was Lili."

Bo Jin's deep eyes held more surprise and hesitation. "Who said that"

"Don't you think so"

"Your friend thinks the same way"

Shen Ningran nodded, her eyes becoming even more puzzled.

Bo Jin thoughtfully pondered for a moment, "Your friend might have misunderstood something."

Just as she arrived at the location, the car stopped. Shen Ningran followed up on her statement and asked, "Do you mean he wasn't here for Li Li"

"Well."

Getting out of the car, Bo Jinyu reached out and held Shen Ningran's hand, his tone light as he added, "However, I only heard about it from them, so what I know might not be accurate. You don't have to tell your friends, it's better not to cause misunderstanding."

Bo Jin Yu has never been a gossipy person, nor does she like to criticize others.

Shen Ningran's eyes deepened a few points. Before entering the private room, Shen Ningran still wanted to call Jiang Li.

"You go in first. I want to make a phone call."

I'll stay with you.

"No need, you go in first. Everyone's been waiting for you already, don't make them wait any longer because of me. I have Gong Che with me, there's no danger."

Bo Jin'yu glanced at Gong Che behind Shen Ningran. With Gong Che by Shen Ningran's side, he did feel more at ease.

"Good."

Shen Ningran grasped her phone and walked to the corridor, dialing Jiang Li's number. Gong Che stood far behind her.

The phone rang for several times but no one answered. Shen Ningran hung up and dialed again, only to have it connected this time.

A dull voice came from the other end of the phone, "Hello, Ranran."

"You... came out to the banquet very late, didn't you"

The other party fell silent for a few seconds.

Shen Ningran knew that Jiang Li had been feeling guilty for ten years because of what happened back then. For those ten years, Yan Chi was in prison, and Jiang Li's heart was like being trapped in a cage, not having a truly happy day.

"Well, I know. How did you find out Or did you see him" Jiang Li asked eagerly.

Shen Ningran glanced at the tightly shut door, sighed, and said, "Bo Jinyu mentioned him to me, I guess it's him. They're in the Imperial Box now."

Okay, I understand.

"Li Li…" Shen Ningran originally wanted to say something, but she thought better of it, "It's nothing."

When Bolin spoke of uncertain things, Shen Ningran stopped bringing up topics on her own.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Ningran was just about to walk towards the private room.

A drunken man walked up, with a woman on his arm, and stumbled into Shen Ningran.

Shen Ningran leaned to the side, not intending to pursue it, and left directly.

"Well, well, isn't this your sister-in-law What a coincidence!"

Shen Ningran turned her gaze back to the man after hearing his voice. She had seen this man at the old Thin family estate, he was the son of Thin Jinyu's uncle, Thin Cheng.

Shen Ningran didn't have a good impression of Bo Jinyu's uncle's family, and she also knew they didn't get along with Bo Jinyu. Therefore, she refused to stay any longer, just slightly nodded her head, and was about to leave.

Bo Cheng didn't give up just like that. He reached out to grab Shen Ningran, "Sister-in-law, don't go! No, wait, you and my cousin haven't remarried yet, so you can't be called sister-in-law. What about... Ran Ran"

Shen Ningran frowned, seeing him getting closer and closer. She reached out and swatted away the hand holding her, "Sorry, I don't know you."

"Not familiar" Bo Cheng chuckled, the woman beside him also laughed at his unwavering gaze, just like last time, making Shen Ningran very uncomfortable.

"Aren't we familiar with each other already Come, have a few drinks with me."

Bo Cheng spoke, reaching out to grab Shen Ning Ran's waist. Last time at the Bo family, he felt this woman was stunningly beautiful, but last time with Bo Jin Yu present, he didn't dare make a move. But now that Shen Ning Ran was alone, his actions became bolder.

Shen Ning nimbly dodged, her eyes turning cold. "Get lost."

Bo Cheng was embarrassed and unhappy. He let out a cold snort, "What are you pretending for Aren't you here to accompany men to drink You can accompany others, but not me"

Saying that, he once again reached out and beckoned Shen Ningran.

Shen Ningran's eyes narrowed, and the next second, the hand reaching out towards her was grasped by someone. "Click," with a clean and decisive movement, Gong Che acted without hesitation.

Intense pain struck, and Bo Cheng immediately let out a pig-slaughtering howl.

Gong Che's eyes were terrifyingly cold, "Whatever you want to drink, I'll have it with you."

"Where the hell did you crawl out from, minding your own business! You're looking for death! Do you know who I am"

Gong Che's lips curled into a vicious sneer. "What Are you famous Come on, tell me your name and see if I can be scared."

"Oh! Oh! Damn you…"

Gong Che increased the force in his hand, Bo Cheng's face paled with pain.

"Stop! Stop! Let go, I told you to let go, ah…"

"Apologize to my sister."

"You think you're something... oof..."

Gong Che repeated, "Apologize to my sister!"

Seeing that the other party was a tough nut to crack, Bo Cheng instantly lost his arrogance from before. Under the intense pain, he had to yield first, "Hug... I'm sorry, I won't do it again next time, I dare not."

"Really"

"Really, really!"

Gong Che loosened his grip on his hand and kicked him to the ground with his leg.

Bo Cheng rolled on the ground twice, glaring angrily at Gong Che. "I already apologized, why did you kick me!"

Oh, are you pleased with this

"Wait for me here." Bo Cheng glared menacingly at the two of them, ignoring his pain, he scrambled to his feet and ran away.

Shen Ningran raised an eyebrow and looked at Gong Che, praising him: "Not bad."

Upon receiving praise, Gong Che seemed like a child who had received candy, his face no longer bearing the icy and menacing coldness he had moments ago.

Shen Ningran looked at him, just about to say something, her face suddenly changed, "Gong Che!"

Gong Che blinked, feeling something warm flow onto his lips. The next second, a wave of dizziness hit him, his legs wobbled, and his tall frame collapsed straight down.

"Palace Che!" Shen Ningran was startled, not caring about anything else, she took a step forward and dragged him, preventing him from falling to the ground.

But this man was tall, Shen Ningran didn't have enough strength to hold him up, she could only fall to the ground with him. Shen Ningran frowned, kneeling on the ground, her hands supporting his shoulders, "Gong Che"

Gong Che shook his head forcefully, his face contorted in pain, but he still didn't want Shen Ning Ran to worry, "Sister, I... I'm fine..."

Shen Ningran reached out with one hand, taking a pack of wet tissues from her bag and covering his bleeding nose. "You don't look okay at all. If you still call me sister, tell me what's wrong right now. I checked your pulse last time, and your body seems fine, you don't have any illness. If you don't tell me the truth, stay away from me."

Gong Che coughed a few times, "Poisoned... poisoned."

"Poisoned" Shen Ningran immediately reacted, "It's Bao Yanqing, the one who had plastic surgery to look like me. Did she poison you"

Shen Ningran knew that Bo Yanqing was extremely skilled in this kind of poison. She had also been poisoned by her. If it weren't for Ye Ci finding someone to save her, she would have died.

Therefore, the kind of poison in Gong Che must also be extremely dangerous.amily”The old man grew angry, angrily interrogating Bo Jinyu, coughing a few times from his rage.Bo Jin furrowed her brow. "So, are you saying I should just stand by and watch as she's unjustly accuse...
