Chapter 142: Negotiating with a Tiger for Its Skin
"Let go." Bo Jingshen lowered his voice and turned to Xiao Caizi as well as to Jing Ruo. No matter how much mental preparation he had done, at that moment, when he saw Su Lu’s appearance,
all his mental preparations had completely collapsed, and he lost all reason.
But it was clear that neither of the two women intended to heed his words. Jing Ruo did not loosen her grip on his clothes at all, and Xiao Caizi had no intention of letting go either, firmly clasping Bo Jingshen’s arm as tight as a vise.
"Don’t be crazy," Jing Ruo urged anxiously, "I told you, you’ll regret this."
Bo Jingshen couldn’t listen to any words at the moment.
Zhou Xiaochu beside them also looked somewhat nervous. She watched Bo Jingshen anxiously and asked cautiously, "Jingshen, what are you planning to do?"
She had sensed Bo Jingshen’s emotions and, considering Jing Ce’s temperament, Zhou Xiaochu’s face lost its previous smugness and instead showed obvious panic.
Zhou Xiaochu was well aware that the life she was living was entirely due to Bo Jingshen’s influence, so she was willing to be used as a chip to control Bo Jingshen.
If not for Bo Jingshen, she would be nothing.
She was vain, but she also vividly knew her own situation. She was equally aware of how averse Bo Jingshen was to this matter.
So, seeing Jing Ce, who had already come over, Zhou Xiaochu felt even more panicked.
