Chapter 4: Weak but Never Bullied
Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios
Su Ruanruan understood what Bo Mingyuan meant. She lowered her eyes and said softly, “Uncle, I think Jingyuan didn’t do it on purpose.”
Bo Mingyuan was very protective of his daughter and was about to calm down, but Bo Jingyuan added fuel to the flames. “Su Ruanruan, stop pretending to be kind!”
“Jingyuan!” Madam Bo couldn’t help but berate her foolish daughter.
However, Bo Jingyuan went on.
Su Ruanruan didn’t fuss over it and only softly asked the servant to bring some ice over. When the servant brought it over, she carefully wrapped it up and placed it on her already slightly swollen face, never making a single complaint about the matter.
She was so sensible that it made one’s heart ache.
Bo Mingyuan felt guilty and immediately said angrily, “Jingyuan, go and kneel in the ancestral hall for two hours. Don’t get up until time’s up.”
Bo Jingyuan was stunned. ‘Dad’s never punished me! It’s all Su Ruanruan’s fault!’
Madam Bo wanted to plead for mercy, but that made her husband even angrier. “Teach her properly when you have time. Don’t lead her astray at such a young age.”
Madam Bo could only swallow her words.
After venting his anger, Bo Mingyuan took Bo Jingse to the company.
However, before leaving, the latter took another look at Su Ruanruan. She didn’t know if it was simply her imagination, but she felt that this 18-year-old child was so calm and composed that even ten Jingyuans might not be her match.
However, Su Ruanruan stood there weakly, as though she had suffered a great loss.
All the servants in the house sympathized with her. ‘What a pitiful little girl. She was bullied by Fourth Miss!’
Bo Jingse shook her head. She was clearly overthinking it.
…
Bo Jingyuan knelt for two hours, and felt as though her vision was blurring.
When had she ever suffered like this? She got up and without even having lunch, she stomped right off in search of Su Ruanruan.
She rushed to the second floor and shoved open Su Ruanruan’s door, shouting loudly, “Su Ruanruan, explain yourself.”
However, there was silence in the bedroom. There was only a small lump on the white bed…
Bo Jingyuan gritted her teeth and sneered. She stepped forward and lifted Su Ruanruan’s blanket. “You’re still sleeping in in broad daylight. I guess I have to teach you some rules.”
But the moment she lifted the blanket, she was stunned.
Su Ruanruan was curled up on the bed, her face unnaturally flushed.
Bo Jingyuan took a step back and muttered, “How can you be so useless? You’ve just arrived and you’re already sick.”
She couldn’t care less about the other girl, and simply turned around to leave.
Yet, no sooner had she tried to do so than the Old Madam came with two servants and blocked her at the door.
The Old Madam had already found out about what had happened that morning from the servants. Seeing Su Ruanruan’s expression, she was furious. “Jingyuan, you’re still not apologetic, and you even want to bully Ruanruan?”
Bo Jingyuan was stumped as tears welled up in her eyes. “It wasn’t me! Grandma, it really wasn’t me.”
“Who else could it be? You’ve been scheming since you were young,” the Old Madam scolded.
At this moment, Guizhi, who was beside the old lady, went over to check and immediately reported, “Her forehead’s burning.”
The Old Madam tapped her walking stick angrily. “She must have been frightened.”
Immediately, she instructed someone to invite a doctor over to treat Su Ruanruan. As for Bo Jingyuan, she was locked up in the ancestral hall and was not allowed to eat for a long time.
When Madam Bo went over, her daughter cried out in anger, “Mom, I’m being punished because of Su Ruanruan again!”
She wailed as she kicked up a fuss. “Mom, Su Ruanruan isn’t here to join this family. She’s here to destroy it.”
Madam Bo hugged her daughter and sighed. “Jingyuan, stop it! That young lady can’t cause any trouble.”
Bo Jingyuan was stunned. Her mother did not believe her either!
She was so incensed that tears rolled down her cheeks.
Su Ruanruan was a born vixen! Her father believed her, her mother believed her, and even her eldest brother had looked at her several times last night!
Her eldest brother never ever looked at women!
