The Atypical Young Lady Has Returned

Chapter 327: The Bo Family’s Relationship

“You asked me to return to Water City, but you wanted to stay behind. Don’t you know that I came to North City on a mission? How will Grandfather punish me if I go back like this? It’s not like you don’t know Grandfather’s methods. If I really waste three years and go back without accomplishing anything, I’ll probably lose half my life.”

“Forget it. I know you’ve never liked me much. Even if we grew up together, it’s not as important as others in your heart.”

“Do whatever you want. I won’t interfere anymore. Otherwise, in the end, you’ll think that I’m a busybody!”

After saying that, Tan Shiyun stood up and left without looking at Bo Lang.

This was the first time in so many years that Bo Lang had seen Tan Shiyun cry.

For the first time, he felt at a loss.

Especially when Tan Shiyun said that Old Master Bo had brought him back to the Bo Family because she asked, Bo Lang couldn’t ignore it.

Seeing that Tan Shiyun had stood up and left in disappointment, his hand reacted faster than his brain and grabbed her wrist.

“No.”

“No one else is more important than you. I just don’t like to owe people favors. Since Eldest Miss Yan saved my life, I naturally have to return this favor to her. You…”

“I really didn’t consider it carefully when I asked you to return to Water City. I’ll arrange it. You go overseas for a while first. I’ll pick you up and bring you back to the Bo Family after everything is over.”

Tan Shiyun was stunned.

She wasn’t stupid. Bo Lang was worried that she would be in danger if she continued to stay in North City.

She had a mission. It didn’t matter if she was willing to do it or not. As long as she continued to stay here, she wouldn’t be safe, even if she felt that she had the ability to protect herself.

That person had completely inherited Old Jones’s pervertness. If she didn’t obey orders and stood on the opposite side, she wouldn’t have a good ending. If she went against Yan Jinyu with them, the danger level would only be higher.

After all, as long as she stayed in North City, it would be very dangerous no matter which side she chose.

She was happy to hear that Bo Lang had arranged for her to go overseas.

However, she was also very angry.

She turned back to look at him and sneered bitterly, “Send me overseas and pick me up after everything is over? Can you guarantee that you’ll still be alright after everything is over?”

She shrugged his hand away. “Do you think I’m stupid?”

“No matter which side you stand on, as long as you get involved, you will definitely not have a good ending. If you don’t obey that person’s orders, he won’t let you off. But do you think Yan Jinyu is so easy to deal with?”

“Do you think it’s possible to help both Yan Jinyu and that person?”

“As long as you stay in North City, you’ll be getting involved. Come back to Water City with me. We’ll go back together. No matter how angry Grandfather is, he won’t punish us at the same time for outsiders. Otherwise, we’ll go overseas together and avoid this commotion before coming back.”

Bo Lang looked at her and fell silent.

Tan Shiyun smiled bitterly, “I’m the one who’s silly. How could you leave with me? You’re not someone who likes to run away. Your relationship with me isn’t that deep either.”

“Forget it. I won’t interfere in your matters in the future. I won’t interfere in your matters anymore. Don’t ask me to do anything either!”

Then, she left without looking back.

Looking at her retreating back, Bo Lang stood rooted to the ground for a long time.

His mother was the Bo Family’s adopted daughter. After escaping from the Jones Family, his maternal grandfather brought him back to the Bo Family.

Later on, his grandfather valued him and nurtured him meticulously. He had to learn almost everything that Tan Shiyun, the heir, had to learn.

Hence, seriously speaking, he had interacted with Tan Shiyun the most in the Bo Family.

He would remember the Bo Family’s favor of bringing him up and repay it in the future.

However, he didn’t expect that the reason why his grandfather brought him back to the Bo Family back then was because of Tan Shiyun.

Bo Lang stood at the same spot for a long time before leaving.

As soon as he left, someone walked out from the corner not far away.

Who else could it be but Feng Yan, whose hand was still in plaster?

Feng Yan had heard that the results of the mock test were out. Yan Jinyu’s results were very bad, so she rushed back to school from the hospital to see if she had the chance to mock Yan Jinyu. She didn’t expect she would encounter two big scenes instead of mocking Yan Jinyu.

Not only did she see Yan Jinyu pushing Yan Jinyun down the stairs, but she also saw a girl involved with Bo Lang!

She was far away, so she could not hear what the two of them said, but she could see their actions clearly!

She knew that girl. She was the top three in the cohort and the class monitor of Class (1), the obedient student, Tan Shiyun! She was someone who had never interacted with Bo Lang in the past three years!

How did she get involved with Bo Lang?

Most importantly, it was actually Bo Lang who pulled Tan Shiyun first! Tan Shiyun even seemed to be crying. Was Bo Lang comforting her?

Tan Shiyun!

It had been three years, but she actually didn’t realize that this obedient student from Class (1) had feelings for Bo Lang too! Bo Lang was even so different to her!

She hid it so well!

Bo Lang was someone she had taken a fancy to. She would definitely not let Tan Shiyun off!

As the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

Feng Yan didn’t know that after she left in jealousy, someone walked out from another corner.

Perhaps because she was too frightened, her legs went limp and she almost fell. Fortunately, she quickly held onto the wall.

It was Tan Shiyun’s deskmate, Chen Yingying.

She had wanted to chase after Tan Shiyun. She wanted to have dinner together with Tan Shiyun before going to the library to read together. She didn’t expect to bump into Tan Shiyun and Bo Lang together, and…

Before she could recover from her shock, she saw the ruthless Feng Yan.

Everyone in school knew that Feng Yan was Bo Lang’s crazy admirer.

Seeing Feng Yan, she quickly hid again.

She wasn’t far away from Feng Yan. She was afraid that Feng Yan would discover her, so her legs went limp.

After all, she wasn’t like Yan Jinyu who dared to provoke Feng Yan and even injure Feng Yan. It wasn’t without reason that Feng Yan was the biggest female bully in Boyu.

Many people were afraid of her, especially girls.

Chen Yingying held onto the wall to calm her emotions. She felt that her legs were no longer so weak, so she quickly chased after Tan Shiyun.

Tan Shiyun did not go to the canteen. Instead, she returned to the dormitory. Chen Yingying chased her all the way to the dormitory.

Tan Shiyun was about to close the door after entering her dormitory when the door was knocked open.

“Yingying?” Her eyes were still red. She must have been sad all the way back.

She was a little surprised to see Chen Yingying, especially when she looked so panicked. She quickly closed the door after entering as if someone was chasing her.

“What’s wrong with you? You look flustered.”

“Shiyun, I saw it.”

Tan Shiyun’s heart skipped a beat. She could only think that Chen Yingying had seen her and Bo Lang.

However, she was only shocked for a moment and quickly recovered.

Because she knew that Chen Yingying must have heard nothing.

If sthe were close, it was impossible for her and Bo Lang not to notice that someone was eavesdropping.

Since she did not sense it, it meant that Chen Yingying was too far away from them to hear their conversation.

Hence, there was nothing to worry about.

“Sit down and talk.”

“Aren’t you curious about what I saw?”

“I can roughly guess.” Tan Shiyun poured her a glass of water.

The two of them sat down on the sofa.

“You and Bo Lang… I saw everything.” Chen Yingying paused and took a sip of water. “So, you knew each other in the past, right?”

“My father’s surname is Bo, and my mother’s surname is Tan. My mother and I have the same surname.” Before she officially inherited the Bo Family, her surname would be Tan. This was a form of protection for the Bo Family’s heir.

How could a big family not offend some people, especially when the Bo Family was involved with the Jones Family in Country Y? As the heir of the Bo Family, she might be killed before she grew up.

Hence, to the outside world, she was not the daughter of the Bo Family but the granddaughter of the Tan Family.

The Tan Family was a small family in Water City, so she was very safe.

Even within the Tan Family, other than a few close relatives, not many people knew that her father was the only son of the Bo Family.

Others only knew that the eldest son of the Bo Family had a daughter who was weak and ill and was kept at home. They did not know anything else. They thought that the Bo Family had no successors, so they brought their adopted daughter’s son back.

In other words, Bo Lang.

To outsiders, Bo Lang was the heir nurtured by the Bo Family.

Speaking of this, she actually felt a little guilty towards Bo Lang.

Bo Lang had endured all the dangers meant for her.

Back then, she had also used Bo Lang being her shield as an excuse to persuade her grandfather to bring Bo Lang back to the Bo Family, even though her intentions were purely to save Bo Lang.

She was only 10 years old. How was she going to persuade her grandfather to bring back Bo Lang, this big trouble?

Bo Lang was the son of his grandfather’s adopted daughter. It seemed reasonable to the outsiders to bring him back and nurtured as his heir.

Her grandfather was convinced.

It was precisely because of this that she didn’t want Bo Lang to know that her grandfather had brought him back to the Bo Family because she was the one who asked back then.

If he knew, Bo Lang would probably hate her.

“Huh?” Chen Yingying looked shocked. “So you and Bo Lang are siblings?” Chen Yingying didn’t know about Bo Lang’s background. She only knew that he was the heir of the Bo Family in Water City.

“You can say that.”

“B-but why haven’t I heard you mention it in the past three years? You and Bo Lang don’t have any interactions either. You were in the same class and at the same table. Three years, but I actually couldn’t see any loopholes. How did you guys do it?”

“We’re a big family and there are many people. Besides, I’ve mostly stayed with my maternal family since I was young. I’m not very close to the children of my generation in the Bo Family. Naturally, it’s the same as Bo Lang.”

“We came from the same family, that’s all. Besides, you’ve seen Bo Lang’s temper. It’s normal that we don’t have any interactions.”

Chen Yingying thought about it and realized that it did make sense. “I see. I knew it.”

“Then, what happened to you just now? You…” Looking at Tan Shiyun’s slightly red eyes, Chen Yingying wanted to say something but stopped.

“Oh, Bo Lang told me about the passing of an elder who treated me well at home. I was sad for a moment, so…”

“I’m sorry. I didn’t know.”

“I’m fine.”

“Then do you want to go back for the funeral?”

Tan Shiyun shook her head. “I’m not going. She’s an elder who married overseas, so the funeral was held overseas. I’m busy with my studies, so my family told me not to go.”

“I see. My condolences.”

“Thank you.”

“Oh, right. I came over to tell you something. Just now, didn’t I see you talking to Bo Lang? After you left, I even saw Feng Yan. She had a fierce look on her face. You know how she feels about Bo Lang. I’m afraid that she will misunderstand your relationship with Bo Lang and find trouble with you. I want to tell you in advance!”

Feng Yan?

A cold glint flashed past Tan Shiyun’s eyes.

She had endured this person for a long time!

If not for the fact that she was afraid that she would not be able to complete the mission after exposing her identity, she would have finished Feng Yan long ago!

Although her main purpose here wasn’t the mission, she came with a mission after all. Besides, there were others in this school other than her and Bo Lang.

She couldn’t afford to be rash, that was why she had endured it!

Bo Lang was someone she had taken a fancy to since she was young. It was fine with Yan Jinyu. Yan Jinyu was outstanding enough, and Bo Lang owed her a favor. She could accept some entanglements between the two of them, even though she would still feel very uncomfortable.

But what was Feng Yan? Was she worthy?

She wished that Feng Yan would come to find trouble with her!

Anyway, now that Yan Jinyu had appeared, those people still had to keep an eye on her. They couldn’t spare the effort to care about her. Even if she exposed her identity, the danger level wasn’t high.

Feng Yan. It was time to teach her a lesson!

“I’ll be careful. Thank you for specially coming to tell me this.”

“There’s no need to thank me. We’re friends. However, honestly speaking, when I saw Feng Yan just now, I was so afraid she would find out that my legs went limp.”

Tan Shiyun smiled. “It’s been hard on you. If there’s anything in the future, just tell me. I’ll definitely help if I can.”

***

Outside Xiao Qun’s office.

Yan Jinyu and Luo Yikun stood in front. The third last girl in the class timidly fell three steps behind them.

She was afraid of Luo Yikun and even more afraid of Yan Jinyu.

On the way over, she looked at Yan Jinyu gingerly.

She had seen Yan Jinyu push Yan Jinyun downstairs with her own eyes! So ruthless!

She could not afford to provoke such a person!

Luo Yikun glanced at Yan Jinyu before knocking on the door.

“Please come in.”
