Chapter 78 - 78: Chaotic Private Life
Fang Jiayi’s heart surged with joy upon discovering her presence. She spoke with a hint of uncertainty, saying, “A few days ago, Brother Lu Chen and I happened to witness Sister assisting an elderly man to a hotel. He seemed so frail that he could barely walk…”
“After their departure from the hotel, Sister was seen entering another man’s luxurious car…”
“It’s possible that Sister gained access to that ward due to her connection with Old Master Bo. Or perhaps she became involved with a wealthy individual and visited as their partner…”
“Regardless of which scenario it is, it’s quite disheartening…”
“Sister has always been exceptionally talented. To remain in Jing City, she might have resorted to a number of questionable actions…” With this, Fang Jiayi intentionally let out a sigh, appearing deeply troubled.
Song Ling couldn’t believe what she was hearing. “Is this girl’s personal life truly so tumultuous?”
If she were indeed entering as someone’s lover, she wouldn’t care about tarnishing Old Master Bo’s reputation and health!
Fang Jiayi swiftly replied, “Fang Yuan’s biological family appears to be quite affluent. 1 doubt they would engage in such behavior,” Lu Chen chimed in.
Fang Jiayi was taken aback by Lu Chen’s statement. “Brother Lu Chen, are you defending Sister? If her family is genuinely wealthy, why would they allow her to serve an elderly man at a hotel? Didn’t you witness it yourself? She appeared quite intimate with that old man, almost like lovers…”
It might have been better if Fang Jiayi hadn’t brought it up, as Lu Chen vividly recalled Fang Yuan’s slender, fair hands gripping the old man’s arm, instantly souring his mood.
Fang Jiayi seized the opportunity to fan the flames. “If Sister’s biological parents were truly as affluent as you suggest, they would be among the richest in the province, if not the entire country…”
“But that seems highly unlikely. The Rolls-Royce we saw that day might belong to some elderly man… The staff could have been lying…”
“I knew it! If her parents were so wealthy, why would she be at the hospital, waiting for Madame Old Fang to wake up? She must be counting on Madame Old Fang to help her secure a place in the Fang Family…” Song Ling concluded.
In that case, it seemed clear that Fang Yuan’s biological parents were not financially well-off…
At that very moment, the bodyguards received a new message and promptly sprang into action to handle the situation outside.
“Old Master Bo is not available for meetings today. Kindly return home and avoid lingering here. The ventilation is quite poor,” one of the bodyguards politely informed the waiting crowd.
Curious, Fang Jiayi wore a deceitful smile and inquired, “Young man, could you please shed some light on the relationship between that young lady who just entered and Old Master Bo? We’re genuinely intrigued.”
Observing her insincere demeanor, the bodyguards couldn’t help but feel a sense of disgust. After all, they had encountered countless disingenuous individuals during their years of service in the Bo family.
Seeing that the bodyguard was ignoring her, Fang Jiayi began to feel a bit awkward. With so many eyes on her, she had no choice but to muster some courage and continue, “Young man, to be honest, that girl who went in just now is my sister…”
“If she’s your sister, you can inquire with her directly,” the bodyguard curtly responded to Fang Jiayi’s plea.
In an attempt to prevent further embarrassment, Song Ling promptly pulled Fang Jiayi away.
Mrs. Lu couldn’t bear the conspicuous behavior of this girl and felt a wave of disgust wash over her.
While some people had already departed, a few lingered nearby, hoping for a chance to see Old Master Bo when he emerged.
After a while, the ward doors finally swung open, revealing Fang Yuan assisting Bo Desong. The sight left everyone in awe!
The elderly man appeared vibrant and engaged in cheerful conversation with the young woman. The girl nodded in agreement, and the two appeared genuinely warm and harmonious, resembling a grandfather and granddaughter.
Those in charge of small businesses who hadn’t yet departed were taken aback. Once they regained their composure, they hurriedly tried to approach Old Master Bo, but the vigilant bodyguards promptly blocked their path.
“Old Master Bo, are you preparing to leave the hospital?”
“Could you spare me just five minutes?”
“Old Master Bo, just one minute, please!”
“Old Master Bo…”
Amidst the clamor, Bo Desong paid no heed to the voices and continued to engage in lively conversation with the young woman at his side, strolling toward the elevator. Butler Wen trailed behind them, carrying luggage and exuding an air of unwavering loyalty.
“Sister seems to share a close bond with Old Master Bo,” Fang Jiayi said, seething with envy, her tone tinged with malicious insinuations. “She spent such a long time with him. I wonder what she was up to inside… Hopefully, nothing unsavory.”
“Jiayi!” Song Ling immediately grasped the implications of Fang Jiayi’s words. However, they were still within earshot of Old Master Bo’s vigilant bodyguards, and any such comments could spell disaster for the Fang family.
Fang Jiayi clenched her lip and cast an envious gaze at the figure ahead, fervently wishing she were the one offering support to the elderly man.
