CHAPTER 288: CHAPTER 268

Then a raging fury burned from the bottom of his heart. Ever since Bao Ye understood the ways of the world, the old master taught him that to be ruthless as a man. To become an outstanding successor, one must be ruthless and cruel.

Never soften your heart towards anyone.

And never place your weaknesses in others’ hands.

Especially emotions, which must be restrained.

Interest is always the priority.

Personal affairs are last on the list.

As the heir of the Bo family, Bao Ye fundamentally inherited the old master’s ideology, except in one aspect.

That is, he still maintained feelings of his own. Bao Ye was very smart, and saw things clearly.

The Bo family, for three generations, the old master was forced into an arranged marriage, which lasted not even five years before ending in divorce.

When it came to his father, it was also a forced marriage.

And as a result, he even relinquished his position as president of the Bo family.

He would rather leave with nothing than remain tied to Xu Yun in marriage.

Bao Ye didn’t want to be the third person to follow in their footsteps.

So, in matters of feelings, he completely reversed the old master’s ideas, full of rebellion.

Yet, as a leader, Bao Ye’s pride in his veins would not allow anyone to challenge him.

And at this moment, he had been hit by Jiang Ruan.

Bao Ye: "..."

His mood, which had just improved a little, immediately plummeted to the extreme, his face looking as unsightly as ever.

Yet someone still hadn’t realized it and remained fast asleep.

Bao Ye ground his teeth in anger at the heartless little thing.

This time he couldn’t hold back, and without regard for her slumber, he pinched her chin, lifted it, and lowered his head to kiss her.

The hand around her waist clutched her robe.

With such a commotion, how could Jiang Ruan possibly stay asleep? She woke up instantly.

Her sleepy eyes opened to see the man’s enlarged handsome face before her, kissing her.

And very violently at that.

Jiang Ruan resisted with a "mmph," raising a hand to push him, vaguely protesting: "Bao Ye, what’s gotten into you!"

Jiang Ruan thought for a moment.

He must have found out about Xu Yun moving in.

So he’s angry?

And now he’s taking it out on her?

Why?

She hadn’t offended him, how was it fair to take his anger out on her?

"Bao Ye, enough!" Jiang Ruan mustered all her strength to push Bao Ye away, but immediately, both her small hands were clasped by his large ones and raised above her head.

Bao Ye looked down at her, licked his thin lips, and smiled mischievously: "Quite strong, huh?"

"Want to try harder?"

Jiang Ruan struggled: "I didn’t provoke you, whoever provoked you, go find them, don’t go crazy with me."

"Let me go."

Bao Ye lazily raised an eyebrow, seeing her angry expression, his mood suddenly became much better.

"It’s you who provoked me."

"Jiang Ruan, I’m not one to take a loss."

"You provoke me, you have to pay for it."

Jiang Ruan kicked him.

"Nonsense, when did I provoke you."

"Am I that bored?"

But the man easily subdued her: "Tsk."

"So harsh? If you kick me injured, who will be responsible for your happiness in the rest of your life?"

Jiang Ruan snorted: "I’ll live a life of purity, is that alright?"

Bao Ye: "I’m afraid you can’t resist."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

With the light in the bedroom, she suddenly noticed his right cheek was very red.

Like he had been hit.

Jiang Ruan blinked, staring at his right cheek, a bit distressed: "Did your mom hit you?"

"Your face is so red."

"Don’t be mad, does it hurt, shall I blow on it for you?"

Concern was fake, wanting him to release her was true.

Bao Ye: "..."

He tugged at his lips: "Jiang Ruan, think about it, would she dare to hit me?"

Jiang Ruan’s dark eyes blinked, her thick eyelashes fluttered lightly, she stuck out her tongue: "Seems like she wouldn’t dare."

"But besides her, who else would dare to hit you, dare to lay a hand on you, aren’t they afraid of not being able to survive in Beijing?"

She said arrogantly.

But it was indeed true.
