“I taught him.” Qin Shu tilted her head and looked behind Fu Tingyan.
She didn’t see Bo Ye, so she asked, “Where’s Bo Ye?”

“He went to call his brother.” Fu Tingyan looked at Xiao Jiu and thought of his brother when he was young.
Although he was born late, he had heard from his elders that his brother was very smart when he was young.
He could learn any skill very quickly.

“What is your relationship with Bo Ye Now?” Qin Shu was half curious as his sister-in-law, she should be concerned about him.

Fu Tingyan’s reply was concise and comprehensive.
“He hasn’t agreed to it.”

“Oh.” Qin Shu understood what that meant.
Fu Tingyan was pursuing Bo Ye, but Bo Ye hadn’t agreed yet, so she kindly reminded him, “Then you have to work harder.
You have been practicing martial arts for four years.”

Even if Qin Shu didn’t remind him, Fu Tingyan also knew that there must be a reason why Bo Ye didn’t agree.

He suddenly remembered those times when he wanted to help Bo Ye solve his physical needs, but Bo Ye rejected him.

“Was it because he didn’t like me, or was it for other reasons?” wondered Fu Tingyan.

At night, Fu Tingyan and Bo Ye went to find Jiang Yu for a drink.

Jiang Yu had changed quite a lot.
He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes.
He had changed from his previous youthfulness, and his personality had become more calm and steady.

In the past year, not only did he study in the company, but he also took the master’s degree exam to become a professor.
He was so busy that he only had time to sleep.

Fu Tingyan asked, “Have you been in contact with Ye Xue recently?”

Jiang Yu shook his head.
“No.”

Everyone’s mood changed due to the mentioning of Ye Xue.

The three of them drank wine and began to talk about their careers.
As a member of a noble family, they had never come across any challenges in life.

Fu Tingyan drank while thinking about his career.
He definitely had to do something he was interested in.

For example, gaming.

Bo Ye stayed at the old house for two nights.
The next morning, Fu Tingyan ignored Bo Ye’s objections and accompanied her on a plane back to Zhongtai.

On the plane

Fu Tingyan stared at Bo Ye for a long time and asked, “When we get to your house, how are you going to introduce me?”

Bo ye replied, “Friend.”

Fu Tingyan was stunned for a moment.

“Well, that’s good enough for me.
At least it’s only a few letters away from a boyfriend,” he thought to himself.

“Have you settled the matter of your family’s marriage alliance?”

Bo Ye realized that Fu Tingyan’s memory was really good.
It had already been a few years, yet he still remembered about the marriage alliance.

“I won’t agree to it, ever.”

Fu Tingyan was quite satisfied with this answer.
“If you really have no choice but to make a marriage alliance, then make a marriage alliance with me.”

Bo Ye tilted her head to look at Fu Tingyan.
Although she didn’t say anything, her eyes still showed that she was surprised.

Fu Tingyan said, “I don’t care what other people think.”

In this regard, he was the same as Fu Tingyu.

Bo Ye looked out of the window.
There was a thick layer of clouds outside.
She asked, “Do you think that if you persist, there will definitely be a result?”

Fu Tingyan replied, “If I don’t persist, there will definitely be no result.”

Bo Ye pursed her lips.
She did not know what to say.
When he thought of Bo Yin, who had been waiting for her at Zhongtai, her lips pursed even tighter.

When they got off the plane, Bo Ye brought Fu Tingyan to her private apartment.

Fu Tingyan looked at the duplex apartment in front of him.
A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
“This is your home?”

“Yes, I live alone.” Bo Ye was the first to walk in.
Then, she took out the key to open the door.

Bo Yin had bought this apartment for her and even hired a housekeeper for her.
She hadn’t been back for more than four years, and the housekeeper would come every day to clean up, so there was no change from before she left.

Fu Tingyan followed her in and took a look at the furnishings inside.
The simple style suited Bo Ye’s personality.

If it weren’t for the fact that Bo Ye was in a hurry to return to Zhongtai, he actually planned to move out of the old house.
He already knew which house he wanted.

“Sit down and rest for a while.
I’ll go get some water.” After putting down his suitcase, Bo Ye took the jug and went to fetch some water.

Fu Tingyan looked at Bo Ye.
She had never mentioned her family.
The only person she had mentioned was her brother, Bo Yin.

When he occasionally asked, Bo Ye didn’t say anything.

He walked over.
“Where are your parents? Do they know you’re back?”

Bo Ye was stunned.
She only came back to her sense when the jug was full.

Fu Tingyan saw this and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.
He waited for a long time, but there was no answer.
He asked again, “Why aren’t you saying anything?”

Bo Ye replied indifferently, “I was placed in the Bo family.”

“Placed in the Bo Family? So, the Bo family isn’t related to you by blood?” Fu Tingyan thought of the marriage alliance.
Did they use Bo Ye as a tool for the marriage alliance?

Coupled with Bo Ye’s coldness, he couldn’t help but guess that the Bo family didn’t treat her very well.

Fu Tingyan had been successful since he was young, and the Fu family didn’t need a marriage alliance.

That was why he was so angry.

“The Bo family adopted you, but they didn’t treat you well.
They even used you as a tool for the marriage alliance.
There’s really no need to stay in such a family.
We’ll go to the Bo Family tomorrow and break off the relationship.
You’ll come back to Jiangcheng with me.”

Bo Ye directly rejected, “There’s no need.”

Fu Tingyan was puzzled.
“You still want to stay in such a family?”

Bo Ye replied, “My brother treats me very well.”

Fu Tingyan recalled that back in the imperial city, Bo Yin had used force to bring Bo Ye back.
He was afraid that Bo Ye had run away because she wanted to avoid the marriage alliance.

No wonder she had asked him if he was interested in learning martial arts.
At that time, he had seen the hope in Bo Ye’s eyes for self-improvement.

“He didn’t hesitate to use force to bring you back, but he couldn’t stop the marriage.
He drove you from home to school.
Is this the result of your brother treating you well?”

Bo Ye’s voice turned cold.
“Who are you to comment on him?”

This was the first time he heard Bo Ye speak to him in an unfamiliar tone.
Fu Tingyan was stunned for a few seconds.

Bo Ye said again, “You can leave tomorrow.”

Fu Tingyan asked a little angrily, “Are you driving me away? Just because I said something I shouldn’t have about your brother?”

Bo Ye did not explain.
Instead, she said, “Like I’ve said before.
You and I can be friends, but that kind of relationship cannot be allowed.”

Fu Tingyan was dumbfounded.
Seeing how determined Bo Ye was, he still did not give up and asked again, “Is there really no possibility at all?”

Bo Ye was silent for a while before giving him a single reply.
“No.”

Fu Tingyan’s hands, which were hanging by his side, suddenly clenched into fists.
“Say that again.”

Sensing that Fu Tingyan was losing control of his emotions, Bo Ye could not help but hesitate.
However, when she thought of the promise she made to Bo Yin, she could only grit her teeth and repeat, “We can be friends, but we can’t be anything more.”

Fu Tingyan sneered.
“How can there be such a simple friendship? Like what I’ve said before, between you and me, it’s either lovers or a stranger.
It’s your choice.”

Bo Ye pursed her lips and fell silent.

Fu Tingyan repeated his words again.
“If you choose to be lovers, I can wait for you to accept me..
If you choose to be strangers, that means, literally, we’ll be strangers.”
