Chapter 74: Big Shot

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Whenever it’s your concern, I’ll always find the time, regardless of how busy 1 am,” Bo Yi expressed with a gentle tone. “You’re still so young, Fang Yuan. You don’t have to bear everything on your own.”

Fang Yuan remained silent.

“You don’t have to handle everything by yourself,” Bo Yi reassured her, patting Fang Yuan’s head. “Remember, I’m here for you, always.”

Fang Yuan finally responded, somewhat reluctantly, “I’ve remembered.”

Bo Yi asked, “What did you remember?”

Fang Yuan replied, “To come find you if something happens.”

Bo Yi continued, “And don’t forget, you also have a fiance. Spend time with him when you can and think of him when you can’t.”

Fang Yuan sighed quietly.

“He’ll protect you from the storm, guiding you through the darkest hours before dawn,” Bo Yi whispered as he gently caressed her face. “Keep that in mind.”

Fang Yuan nodded, saying, “I will.”

Meanwhile, on the other side,

“That darn girl actually blocked you on WeChat?” Song Ling exclaimed when she noticed the red exclamation mark on Fang Liguo’s message. “Raising her for 18 years would have been easier!”

Fang Liguo retorted, “Isn’t this partly your fault? 1 told you to treat her better. Look, things have been going downhill since she left our family!” He couldn’t help but wonder if her birth parents had something to do with the collaboration between various groups falling apart. Thinking back to the Rolls-Royce he had seen earlier and the words of the servant, he couldn’t help but feel that her family was even more influential than their Fang Clan.

Fang Liguo suddenly had an idea, “Didn’t her mother call us last time? We have her mother’s contact information. Maybe we…”

Before he could complete his sentence, Song Ling interrupted, saying, “1 assumed she had deleted her contact information long ago, considering she used to live in such a remote area. 1 never saved it…”

Fang Liguo was visibly flustered, resembling an ant on a hotplate.

“Don’t be so anxious,” Song Ling suddenly had a promising idea. “There’s a prominent figure on the same floor as our mother’s ward. Numerous influential individuals have come to visit. This could be our chance…”

“What notable figure?” Fang Liguo had received no such news.

Song Ling declared with pride, “1 heard that this individual was incredibly accomplished in their youth, thriving in the business world and building a massive corporate empire. Later, their grandson took the reins and expanded the business, becoming the world’s youngest billionaire!”

Fang Liguo was taken aback. “Are you saying this big shot is Bo Yi’s grandfather, Old Master Bo?” Bo Yi was renowned as the world’s wealthiest person, but he remained extremely reclusive, without even a photograph in public circulation.

“How did you find out? Is Old Master Bo really hospitalized?” He couldn’t believe he hadn’t heard such sensational news.

“There are no secrets that can be kept indefinitely…” Song Ling recounted the unfolding events. “Old Master Bo fell gravely ill some time ago and was on the brink of death. Rumor has it that a high school student happened to pass by and performed life-saving surgery on him…” This news had attracted widespread attention, leading to many people discovering that Old Master Bo was hospitalized and wanting to pay their respects.

“Where did this remarkable high school student come from?” Fang Liguo marveled at her astonishing ascent. A high school student, at most 17 or 18 years old, had the audacity to operate on Old Master Bo and succeeded? As he thought about it, he had raised Fang Yuan for 18 years. Not only was she utterly unhelpful, but she also seemed to go out of her way to make his life difficult!

“I’ve heard that Old Master Bo is set to be discharged soon. We should use this opportunity to introduce ourselves…” Song Ling allowed herself some hopeful optimism.

“But will Old Master Bo even agree to see us?” Fang Liguo voiced his concern. Old Master Bo was such a colossal figure; would he even entertain a meeting with the richest man in the small city of Haicheng?

“Let’s give it a try! How will we ever know if we don’t attempt it?” Song Ling pondered. If Old Master Bo was willing to support the younger generation, would the Lu Family still dare to exhibit such arrogance towards them? In the future, Jiayi would have the opportunity for a better life after marrying into the Lu Family…

“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s promptly prepare some gifts and pay a visit tomorrow!” Fang Liguo regained his confidence and began searching the family’s treasures.

The following day,

After a day at the company, Fang Yuan received a friend request as she was leaving.

[Granddaughter-in-Law, it’s me!]

Fang Yuan:”???” Granddaughter-in-Law? Could it be from Old Master Bo?

On the other end,

“Why hasn’t Yuanyuan accepted my friend request yet?” Inside the ward, Old Master Bo glanced at his phone every few seconds. He turned to Butler Wen and inquired, “Doesn’t the little girl like it when 1 add ‘Yay’ and ‘hey’ after every sentence? Yuanyuan won’t think I’m an old pervert just because she hasn’t approved my request, right?”

Butler Wen restrained his laughter. “I heard Young Master mention that Young Madam went to work at the company. She must still be busy and hasn’t seen the notification.”

“Work? Why would she go to work? Is it because she is running low on pocket money or is it to gain life experience?” Before Butler Wen could respond, Old Master Bo noticed his phone screen lighting up.. He glanced at it and exclaimed with excitement, “I’m in! My granddaughter-in-law accepted my friend request!”
