CHAPTER 935: CHAPTER 731: LIKING YOU SINCE THE FIRST GLANCE 72

Grandpa Bo eats without speaking.

Lady Bo smiles and explains, "Mom, it’s probably because he likes a girl, but she doesn’t like him back. He got desperate, and then she ran away. Now he can’t find her."

Grandma Bo says, "Eldest daughter-in-law, I’ve imagined a story in my mind, it’s quite exciting."

Lady Bo replies, "Mom, the story you imagined, I think there might not be much difference, right, son?"

Bo Qin eats expressionlessly, not giving even half a glance, and after a long while, he looks at Grandma Bo, "Grandma, that’s not the case."

"I don’t believe you, I trust my eldest daughter-in-law."

Grandma Bo slowly eats the food in her bowl, looking at him with a face full of distrust.

Lady Bo gives Bo Qin a look of karmic retribution, "Tell me, haven’t you found Jian Dan yet?"

Bo Qin hums and remains silent.

"I said that when she was by your side, you acted so aloof, keeping a distance, like you thought she was young and it was okay to wait, right?" Lady Bo said, disappointed that iron cannot become steel. "Little Jian Dan is already an adult, isn’t it natural for her to date and get married?

You think she’s young, but kids her age don’t think so. Since you’re willing to wait, she isn’t. After all, Little Jian Dan is still a beautiful flower, if you don’t care, someone else will."

"I didn’t not care."

Bo Qin rarely refutes his mother, but he really can’t agree with this sentence, what does it mean he doesn’t care?

He cares, very much.

It’s just that he realized it too late, yes, it’s all his fault, but Jian Dan didn’t give him even half a chance to explain.

So now, he has no clues in his search.

Lady Bo, seeing her son upset and so self-reproachful for the first time, didn’t want to say much. She said lightly, "Add more people, keep searching, Jian Dan is a child with her own ideas, she probably thinks there’s no hope from your side, so she’s given up on you."

Bo Qin’s pupils constrict sharply, his heart tightening painfully because of Lady Bo’s words, waves of distress surge up, making him very uncomfortable.

Lady Bo watches her son’s face turn inch by inch very unpleasant, she stops speaking. Saying it like this about her son seems not very good, he might be naturally slow in emotional response, and that’s why such things happened.

Clearly, he now knows what kind of feelings he has for Jian Dan.

So, to put it bluntly, he’s never really forgiven himself.

She sighs, "Once you find Little Jian Dan, I hope you can truly recognize your mistakes."

"I will."

...

After Bo Qin leaves, the Bo family livens up. Grandma Bo looks at her eldest daughter-in-law, "You said such things about the grandson, won’t he become introverted?"

Lady Bo is momentarily stunned, then waves her hand, "Mom, you underestimate your grandson, right? He won’t fall so easily, he hasn’t found the person he needs to yet, how could he dare to fall?"

Grandma Bo, "Who was that last time, the young girl who came with Bo Qin to the house?"

"Hmm."

Grandma Bo, "Not bad, she has quite the taste, I liked her the moment I saw her. Now, if your son can win her over, that would be ideal. If she doesn’t like him, that’s normal, after all, the young girl is so young."

My eldest grandson, he’s quite old actually, he’s not really a match for her, right?

Lady Bo suddenly feels a bit relieved that her son didn’t hear the complaints from his grandma; official complaints are the most deadly. Perhaps, what the elderly lady said made sense.

Lady Bo seriously considers, "Mom, you may be right, why not let your eldest grandson stay single for his whole life? Save the young girl from suffering?"

Grandma Bo’s face finally changes, "I just said so randomly, don’t you harm my grandson."

"..."

So after all, was it just a joke?

She thought it was serious and was about to give a push, forget it, let her son suffer, she stands with Jian Dan on this issue.

Bo Qin is totally unaware of how the two ancestors at home talked about him. As usual, he makes a daily call to Zhou Yao’s phone, inquiring about progress, and each time the answer is the same.

Saying he doesn’t care is false; the overwhelming feeling of loss is suffocating every time he hears the words ’no results.’

Clearly, they’d been together well before, within reach at any moment, but when Jian Dan disappeared so easily from the world.

Bo Qin finally realized how panicked and sad he was.

"Keep searching."

He orders.

Zhou Yao hums, "Mr. Bo, don’t worry, I’ll follow through on this side."
