Chapter 138 Don’t Regret It
Jing Ruo was also somewhat nervous, she silently swallowed her saliva; she was truly afraid of Jing Ce getting angry, because his anger was never an explosive rage.
It was an unnoticed seepage, by the time you realized he was angry, the punishment he intended to give and its consequences were usually irreversible.
But Jing Ce merely stared quietly and evenly at Xiao Caizi for a moment, then smiled and said, "You haven’t even married Jingshen yet, and you’re already bending your elbow in his favor?"
Xiao Caizi secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said shyly, "I’m thin-skinned, uncle, please don’t make fun of me."
"Fine, you are sensible, so I’ll listen to you," Jing Ce said. "Let’s not announce it publicly, since this is Feng City and we are unfamiliar with this place."
Hearing this, Jing Ruo breathed a sigh of relief, cautiously glancing at Bo Jingshen’s expression, thinking that at least he could feel somewhat better now.
But Bo Jingshen’s expression did not change, nor did he look any better.
How to put it, although Bo Jingshen hadn’t spent decades with Jing Ce, he felt he understood him well enough.
Because he understood him well enough, Bo Jingshen knew his stubbornness; once he decided something, it wasn’t easy to back down. If it seemed like he gave in?
That definitely meant he initially offered a higher price, even leaving room for bargaining that would bring it exactly to his actual desired price or even higher.
So, even though Jing Ruo and Xiao Caizi had breathed sighs of relief, Bo Jingshen didn’t share their fortunate mood.
