Chapter 125: Chapter 125: Applying Pressure

Jing Ruo had originally thought that Bo Jingshen had no intention of going in, as he had always shown much impatience, not even bothering to feign politeness.

Unexpectedly, after hearing what Zhou Xiaochu had said, Bo Jingshen didn’t resist entering the suite anymore.

He even stepped in without needing Jing Ruo to pull him.

As footsteps sounded, the three people originally sitting around the tea table by the living room window of the suite all turned to look toward the doorway.

They saw a tall and slender young man walking in, his face expressionless and cold.

Zhou Xiaochu’s expression stiffened, clearly showing some embarrassment.

"Xiao Shen is here..." Zhou Xiaochu revealed a tender smile.

If Bo Jingshen was willing to cooperate, they could certainly put on a display of maternal love and filial piety, but obviously, Bo Jingshen was not willing to play along.

He didn’t even call out to her, and upon hearing her, he simply glanced at Zhou Xiaochu indifferently.

The little affection Bo Jingshen had for her had been worn away by her day after day of boundless greed, leaving his heart desolate when he saw Zhou Xiaochu.

Bo Jingshen no longer even felt disappointment toward her, strangers were better than her in his view.

Thus Bo Jingshen didn’t speak. After walking in, he just stood there, cool and detached.

Zhou Xiaochu’s already awkward expression became more embarrassed due to Bo Jingshen’s indifferent silence.
