Chapter 2281
As soon as these words were spoken, Dan Chun, who was just emanating a cold aura, widened her eyes in disbelief, staring at Ruan Bo in shock, unable to believe he would do such a thing.
She came over, her voice trembling with anger, "Ruan Bo, are you crazy?!"
She couldn’t believe Ruan Bo would do such a thing that blurred the lines between personal and professional matters.
She wanted to snatch the phone, but Ruan Bo was taller than her, and with a raise of his hand, she couldn’t reach the phone at all, leaving her trembling in anger as she glared at Ruan Bo.
On the other end of the phone, Jiaojiao was still holding her phone, vaguely hearing the sounds of an argument from the other side. She tried calling out, "Brother Bo? Brother Bo?"
There was no response, and a few seconds later, it was hung up.
Jiaojiao frowned at the disconnected call, feeling a bit worried.
Duan Xi was driving, and it was a night drive. The snow hadn’t fully melted in the past few days and had turned to ice. So when the call came in, seeing it was from Ruan Bo, Duan Xi had Jiaojiao take the call.
And what was said afterward, she heard too, though Duan Xi’s hearing was always sharper than others, so even without taking the call, he heard it.
Jiaojiao didn’t know and repeated what Ruan Bo had just said, then nervously asked Duan Xi, "Brother Xi, what do you think Brother Bo meant?"
The person was recommended by him, and it was clear he was interested in them, so why was everything fine during the day, but suddenly at night, he talked about canceling the contract? Moreover, it seemed like they were arguing right now.
Jiaojiao really couldn’t understand.
"That eye problem got better, right?" Duan Xi.
"???" Jiaojiao furrowed her little eyebrows even tighter.
Holding her phone, she thought for a while and called Ruan Bo back. The ringtone rang again and again, and just when Jiaojiao thought he wouldn’t answer, the call went through.
"Brother Bo, are you okay?" As soon as the call connected, Jiaojiao asked eagerly.
"Jiaojiao?"
"Yes, Brother Bo, what just happened? Why did you suddenly say the contract is to be canceled?"
Ruan Bo didn’t answer but instead asked, "Jiaojiao, give the phone to Xiaoxi; I want to talk to him."
Jiaojiao could only pass the phone to Duan Xi. Duan Xi temporarily stopped the car by the roadside, took the call, and whatever Ruan Bo said on the other end, Duan Xi nodded, responding, "Got it."
He then handed the phone back to Jiaojiao, and Jiaojiao suspiciously took it, only to hear Ruan Bo say on the other end, "Jiaojiao, it’s fine now, everything’s okay, just be careful on the road; I’ll come home to see you in a couple of days."
"Okay." Jiaojiao could only hang up the phone helplessly.
Once the call ended, Jiaojiao immediately pestered Duan Xi, demanding to know what was going on.
Duan Xi, unlike Ruan Bo, had no intention of hiding anything, and he explained Ruan Bo’s intentions along with his own feelings. Once he finished, Jiaojiao beside him went silent.
"!!!" Jiaojiao.
Angry!
So angry she slapped her thigh in rage!
Indeed, a woman’s intuition never lies! That Dan Chun’s intentions were indeed not simple, she was after her cherished man!
And she even exploited the affections of Ruan Bo for her, it was infuriating!
Jiaojiao was so enraged that even when her little hand went numb from slapping her thigh, she didn’t notice. It’s like something suddenly occurred to her, and she turned her gaze to one side to Duan Xi, her eyes narrowing dangerously, "Brother Xi! You knew?!!!"
Duan Xi reached out and gently held her unintentionally open little hand, caressing it slightly with some distress, yet his face remained calm, "Yes, I knew."
