Chapter 1774
After settling all the procedures at the notary office, everything went smoothly and quickly.
Regarding the so-called divorce compensation that Old Master left for Old Lady Bo, the old lady did not say anything and accepted it.
It seemed like it would be a waste not to take it.
However, she didn’t return to her villa directly. Instead, she went straight to Grand View Villa.
Bo Jinchuan brought Shen Fanxing home while Xu Qingzhi followed. The moment they entered, she pulled Shen Fanxing into the kitchen.
On one hand, she asked for food from the chef that Bo Jinchuan had hired for Shen Fanxing. On the other hand, she praised Bo Jinchuan for being a good husband and a good chef.
This way, Bo Jinchuan’s expression didn’t look so bad. The chef happily prepared delicious food for the two pregnant women.
Lai Rong pushed the old lady in and they hurried to the living room.
“Grandma...”
...
“Grandma Bo!”
The old lady smiled at them. “In the kitchen?”
Xu Qingzhi nodded in embarrassment. “I’m a little hungry.”
“Yes, tell the kitchen what you want to eat.”
She smiled kindly and her voice was especially loving.
Shen Fanxing looked at her calmly and pursed her lips. In the end, she didn’t say anything.
In Bo Jinchuan’s living room, the old lady looked at him and said, “Come and sit.”
Xu Qingzhi found an excuse and entered the kitchen. Bo Jinchuan pulled Shen Fanxing to the sofa.
The old lady looked at Bo Jinchuan sternly and asked, “Did you really give up your shares?”
Bo Jinchuan replied calmly, “No.”
“Where’s Jinghang?”
“Not really.”
Only then did the old lady heave a sigh of relief. Then, she raised her hand and Lairong hurriedly handed a document bag to the old lady.
The old lady took out a document and handed it to Bo Jinchuan.
Shen Fanxing sat quietly at the side.
Bo Jinchuan merely glanced at the document without accepting it.
The old lady glanced at the document and placed it on the coffee table.
“It seems like you already know. I don’t have to say anything else. Take this 30% shares.”
Shen Fanxing pursed her lips.
‘Yes.’
How should she address this old man?
He couldn’t bear to let go of Grandma?
So she had delayed the matter until now?
However, he didn’t defend himself at all and agreed to the divorce in court. Then, under everyone’s gaze, he gave Grandma enough things, including the Bo Consortium.
It sounded generous, but in reality...
Using the divorce and Grandma to hand the Bo Consortium back to Ah Chuan...
He wouldn’t give in to her or lower his head to Ah Chuan.
Yet, she still gave the Bo Consortium to Ah Chuan.
The Bo Consortium did not improve in the hands of Second Uncle. In fact, they were forced to retreat. It could be seen that Second Uncle’s business skills were not outstanding.
There was no need to elaborate on Ah Chuan’s capabilities. Moreover, he was now the highest-ranking CEO of the “Ming” Corporation. If the Bo Consortium fell into his hands...
Ordinary people would not be able to imagine the future development of the world’s top two companies.
The Bo Consortium was more important than anything else.
Even after the divorce, he had to pave the way for the Bo Consortium.
Perhaps she was thinking too much.
He was too evil.
From another perspective, it was impossible for Second Uncle to manage the Bo Consortium now. Old Master... did not have the ability to manage the Bo Consortium anymore. Other than handing it over to Ah Chuan, he indeed... had no other choice.
After all, the Bo Consortium was his blood, sweat, and tears. It was the pride and symbol of the Bo family. No one would allow the Bo Consortium to fall just like that.
“He’s quite capable. After all that trouble, he’s the one who forcefully took it away. Now, he wants to throw this mess to me. How magnanimous am I? Why should I let bygones be bygones?”
The old lady curled her lips indifferently. “Yes, what a good method. That’s why he gave me these things. If you were me, how would you deal with it? Forget it, if you don’t accept it, I’ll manage it. At most, I’ll live a few years less. It can be considered as leaving something for my future great-grandchildren to eat, drink, and play.”
Although she didn’t like Old Master’s style and personality, she had nothing to say to the Bo Consortium.
30% of the shares was enough for her two great-grandchildren to live a carefree life.
It was definitely worth it to shorten her lifespan.
Bo Jinchuan pursed his lips and his expression darkened. The old lady was obviously saying this on purpose.
A few years less?
How could he let her live a few years less?
Although his expression didn’t look good, he sat on the sofa silently and snorted coldly.
Old Lady Bo sat opposite and stared at the document in front of her. She sighed helplessly.
Shen Fanxing was moved by the old lady’s words.
Seeing that the two of them were frozen, she turned to look at Bo Jinchuan, who remained calm. She couldn’t help but say to the old lady,
“Grandma, don’t be sad...”
Upon hearing this, Lady Bo looked up instantly with a smug smile. Before Shen Fanxing could finish speaking, she interrupted her.
“Okay! If you accept the 30% shares, I won’t be sad anymore.”
Shen Fanxing was speechless.
Choking, Shen Fanxing opened her mouth but no words came out.
Looking at the triumphant smile on the old lady’s face, she felt that she had fallen into her trap.
But what did this have to do with her?
She only wanted to comfort him, but in the end, such a huge burden fell on her.
“... Grandma, I... I’ve let go of my own company...”
“It’s okay. I’ll help you take care of it first. It won’t be too late to go to the company after you give birth.”
“No!” said Bo Jinchuan suddenly, firmly rejecting this unpleasant suggestion.
The old lady glared at him. “Do you have the right to interrupt when I’m talking to my granddaughter-in-law?”
Bo Jinchuan’s face darkened. “She’s my wife. I didn’t marry her to clean up the Bo family’s mess.”
“What kind of aftermath is this? How many people want to get this bit of assets? I’m giving your granddaughter-in-law a share of the assets. What do you care?”
“You’re not allowed...”
“Shut up! You don’t accept it, but you don’t allow others to accept it? Why? Do you want to be your second grandfather?”
Bo Jinchuan was speechless.
Shen Fanxing’s lips twitched. The old lady now was completely different from her stern self.
She really suspected that she was the old lady’s target from the start.
Seeing the bewildered look on Shen Fanxing’s face, the old lady’s lips drooped and her brows furrowed.
“Fanxing, can you really bear to let Grandma manage the company? I still want to live for a few more years and take care of my two precious great-grandchildren... I’m already in my seventies... I really don’t have many years left to live...”
Shen Fanxing was even more moved.
The old lady continued, “I just want to leave something for my great-grandchildren. At the very least, after they become sensible, they will remember how much my heart aches for them. Grandma knows that you’re a kind child, so can you help me?”
The old lady’s voice and expression were almost begging. Shen Fanxing’s heart ached and she turned to look at Bo Jinchuan.
“Ah Chuan...”
Bo Jinchuan glanced at the cunning old lady and his face tightened.
After a long while, he said calmly, “Do whatever you want.”
The old lady’s face lit up and she looked at Shen Fanxing expectantly.
Shen Fanxing was silent for a while before continuing, “Ah Chuan, why don’t you accept it? After I give birth, I’ll take over the company...”
Bo Jinchuan snorted coldly and said, “This is your business. Don’t implicate me. If you want these shares, keep them. I won’t take them.”
Shen Fanxing looked troubled. After hesitating for a while, she gritted her teeth and said, “Alright, I’ll accept them for now. When the babies are born, I’ll transfer them immediately.”
Old Lady Bo’s wrinkled face lit up instantly.
“Okay, okay. Let’s do that.”
Shen Fanxing was speechless.
She knew that it was a trap, but she was still willing to jump into it. It was rare.
However, this was something that any woman would want.
It had to be said that the older, the wiser.
Giving her the shares was no different from giving Ah Chuan the shares.
After the discussion, Bo Jinchuan brought Shen Fanxing upstairs.
Lai Rong said helplessly, “That’s true. Once she gives birth, how can a mother be willing to focus on her work?”
Old Lady Bo smiled smugly. “That’s her own business. I don’t believe that brat will stand by and watch his wife suffer.”
Lai Rong finally understood.
So that was what the old lady had in mind.
No wonder Young Master was so against Young Madam taking over the company. He had already thought of this.
He didn’t want his wife to go out to work in the first place. He had already tolerated Stars International, but now that the Bo Consortium was involved, he would definitely be reluctant.
If he couldn’t bear to part with it, he would still have to manage the company.
Moreover, if Young Madam did something and wheedled with Young Master, things might be easier.
After understanding this, Lairong smiled and said, “Madam, you’re the smartest.”
The old lady sneered. “Compared to being smart, no one can compare to him.”
How could he not have predicted some possible accidents?
He probably knew that there would be a satisfactory outcome, so he handed the shares to her.
He said that he was compensating her...
In the end, it was all for the Bo Consortium.
In the end, Lairong could only sigh.
Since the two of them were already divorced, she naturally couldn’t continue the conversation.
It was just regret and sadness.
Decades of marriage had become a thing of the past.
The old lady obviously didn’t want to mention it anymore. She paused for a while before asking,
“Where’s Yue Lin? Why did he hand over the shares so readily this time? Hasn’t he always wanted to prove himself? Now that he has encountered difficulties, it doesn’t seem like his style to give up so easily.”
Lai Rong shook her head and said, “I’m not sure. He didn’t appear at the court today. Perhaps he felt that he was more or less the reason why you and Old Master fell out. He must be feeling guilty.”
The old lady shook her head and said, “This child is too meticulous and thinks too much. There’s a barrier between me and his father a long time ago. It’s our business that we’ve reached this stage. What has it got to do with him?”
With that, she sighed and said, “At the end of the day, there are too many things going on in Si Chen’s family. It’s not just him. Even Jinchuan has neglected him. He’s not young anymore. Now that I’ve divorced his father, he’s probably embarrassed. He’s from a single-parent family...”
Lai Rong nodded and said, “That’s right, Madam. Young Master Yue Lin is used to keeping everything to himself. A child who doesn’t cry has no candy to eat. All these years, it’s been hard on him... I wonder how he’s feeling now that he’s given up his shares.”
The old lady nodded and said, “Let’s go and see him. Let’s go to the supermarket to buy some groceries. He came to our house not long ago. I noticed that his taste has become lighter recently. I can still move now. I’ll cook a few dishes that he likes.”
Lai Rong smiled and nodded. “Old Madam is indeed meticulous. I didn’t even notice...”
“He’s my son after all. If I’m not attentive to him, who should I be attentive to?”
“I’ll get the driver to prepare.”
“Yeah.”
The old lady smiled and massaged her legs.
“It’s rare for me to enter the kitchen. Don’t screw up.”
Lou Ruoyi grabbed Bo Sichen and discussed how to interact with the two elders in the future. When she returned, she saw the old lady massaging her legs.
Lou Ruoyi went forward to take it. “Mom, we can’t rush this. The more anxious we are, the more counterproductive it will be...”
“Don’t worry, I’m not in a hurry. I’m going to visit Yue Lin later. He’s probably in a bad mood now. I’ll make a meal for him to please him.”
Bo Sichen narrowed his eyes.
“You want to cook personally?” Lou Ruoyi was surprised.
“Yes, that’s right. You have to be sincere in pleasing others.”
Lou Ruoyi smiled and said, “I’m so envious...”
“Hmph!” The old lady snorted angrily. “Do you eat less?”
“I don’t think it’s enough!”
“Go! You’re the best at sweet-talking.”
Lou Ruoyi was displeased. “It’s the truth!”
Lai Rong came over and smiled. “Madam, the car is ready.”
Lou Ruoyi stood up, but Bo Sichen said, “I haven’t eaten with him in a long time. Let’s go with you.”
The old lady thought about it and agreed.
Lou Ruoyi didn’t know why Bo Sichen would make such a decision, but she didn’t think much of it.
After all, they were brothers and family. It was normal for them to have a meal together.
Bo Yuelin had his own villa in Ping Cheng City. Old Master Bo was not in a good mood and did not like having someone by his side.
Without a doubt, Bo Yuelin would be at home now.
When the old lady and the rest arrived, Bo Yuelin was a little surprised. When he went out to pick them up, his face froze when he saw Bo Sichen and Lou Ruoyi. He stood rooted to the ground, not knowing how to face the two of them.
