Chapter 123: Chapter 123 Fear

Bo Jingshen didn’t speak further, and Jing Ruo didn’t know whether she had managed to persuade him or not.

She glanced at Bo Jingshen in the backseat through the rearview mirror again.

Then she heard Bo Jingshen let out a light sigh, a sound that betrayed neither fatigue nor any other discernible emotion.

His voice was low and soft, "Let’s go."

"Okay," Jing Ruo responded, quickly starting the car and setting off.

During the drive, Bo Jingshen remained silent. No matter how Jing Ruo interpreted his earlier tone, she felt it was tinged with a certain sadness, the kind that was heart-wrenching.

So, after staying silent for a while, Jing Ruo softly tried to console him, "Don’t be upset, it will be better once they leave."

"Who knows when they’ll leave," Bo Jingshen’s voice was still low.

But Jing Ruo could hear a shade of dejection and clear disappointment in it, "Jing Ce is sly like a fox, both of us know that. He’s always scheming... He’s already had someone follow me; if there’s the slightest clue, he’s unlikely to leave easily."

Jing Ruo pursed her lips, at a loss for what to say that could comfort him. In the years that Bo Jingshen had been abroad, he had managed to stay well beyond the reach of Jing Ce’s influence. But she had always been within that scope, so she knew all too well how Jing Ce operated.

Thus, she didn’t know what to say that could comfort or persuade Bo Jingshen.

She could only offer a dry consolation, "They’ll leave eventually, right? He can’t possibly stay in Feng City forever. Do you think he’s like me, a loafer with no job to speak of? The Jing Family has so many matters to attend to; he can’t stay for long."

Bo Jingshen remained silent.

Yet the emotions inside him found no relief.
