Chapter 2056: Secret (2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

That year, the Prince betrayed the royal family and I was kidnapped.

I ran into a primeval forest, but the assassins behind me kept coming.

I hid myself… They couldn’t find me at first, but he appeared.

He came to the forest, understood the mark I left for Father and found me.

I was injured at that time and thought that he had saved me. I was very touched.

But I didn’t expect him to lead me deeper into the abyss.

He brought me to that group of assassins. The leader of the assassins grabbed his waist and pulled him into his arms. He kissed him and called him a beauty.

It was then that I realized that he was not a man, but a woman.

…

Bo Cixue was about to turn to the next page when a slender hand suddenly reached over and stopped her from turning the page.

Bo Cixue looked up slowly and saw Kevin standing by the desk. Kevin frowned and his usually gentle expression was a little serious. “Cixue, don’t look through the files of other patients.”

The assistant came over and when he saw this, his face turned pale with fright.

Those who could get treated here were all reputable people and they would never reveal anything about their private matters. She had only let Bo Cixue stay here because she thought that she would not rummage around…

Bo Cixue apologized and gave up her seat to the assistant.

Bo Cixue followed Kevin into the office in a daze.

Although she did not see what happened behind her, she could imagine how he had been affected both physically and mentally after falling into the hands of that group of people and was betrayed by the person he trusted the most.

Tears gradually filled Bo Cixue’s eyes.

She sat on the sofa, trembling slightly. “Kevin, some time ago, I asked him about his secrets because I was jealous. Do you think I was too much?”

Kevin crossed his legs, his slender fingers tapping his knees. “Cixue, I understand your curiosity. That incident did traumatize him, but he’s very powerful and is slowly getting over it. You have to believe him.”

Bo Cixue put her hands on her forehead. “Kevin, was he…”

Kevin shook his head. “Almost. If it had really come to that, he wouldn’t have let himself come back alive given his personality.”

There was no need to ask anymore. Bo Cixue already vaguely understood what he meant.

Thinking about how she had exposed his wound that day, she wanted to slap herself!

“Cixue, don’t mention what you saw today in front of him. You just have to treat him normally!”

…

When Bo Cixue left the consultation room, her heart was in a mess.

She really wanted to see Ye Jie immediately.

However, with her current condition, she would definitely expose herself if she saw him.

Bo Cixue drove home.

Yan Hua had made a lot of snacks and seeing that Bo Cixue was back, she put them in the box. “The other time Cheng Yan sent me tonics but I haven’t thanked him. I’m free today and made some food. I heard that he’s going to work late tonight. Can you bring him food after dinner?”

Bo Cixue nodded. “Okay.”

After dinner, Bo Cixue went to the hospital.

Cheng Yan learned that she had come and went downstairs from the guardroom.

Bo Cixue handed him the snacks Yan Hua had made. “My mother made it herself. Eat it. If it tastes good, I’ll get some for you next time.”

Cheng Yan took the box and opened it to eat a piece. “It’s very delicious. Please thank Auntie for me.”

Bo Cixue smiled. “Don’t perform too well in front of my mother. If not, she will introduce you to girls for blind dates.”

Cheng Yan also smiled. “Auntie Yan’s taste must not be bad.”

Bo Cixue held her forehead. “Well, my mother tried to matchmake us. Fortunately, you didn’t mind. Otherwise, it would be really awkward and we wouldn’t be friends anymore.”

The two of them were talking beside the flower bed beside the outpatient clinic and did not notice a tall and cold figure getting into the car at all. The car slowly drove past them.

Ye Jie finished his work for the day and came to the hospital to visit a patient who was recovering from the virus.

Looking at the couple chatting and laughing outside the car window, Ye Jie slowly looked away, his handsome face cold and serious.

Ah Zuo, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, looked out of the window and then at the man in the back row. He felt that the atmosphere in the car seemed to have dropped to a freezing point.

“Your Highness, do you still want to go to the Bo family’s house?” The original plan was to go to the Bo family’s house to find Miss Bo after visiting the patient.

Ye Jie raised his long fingers and pinched his nose bridge. “No need.”

…

The people in the office felt that something was wrong.

The higher management executives, who used to leave work on time, now worked until late at night.

However, the person at the top looked normal. He worked, had meetings, and received foreign guests, as if he would never be tired.

One of the higher management executives found Ah Zuo. “Did something happen to His Highness recently? Is it because Miss Ye is marrying into the Gao family?”

Ah Zuo frowned. “How could it be related to Miss Ye?”

“So you also noticed that something was wrong with His Highness?”

Ah Zuo also noticed when the higher management said this.

But when had it started?

Oh right, it started when he saw Miss Bo and Chief Cheng chatting and laughing in the hospital that day.

After Ah Zuo found the cause of the problem, he called Bo Cixue that evening.

Bo Cixue was going to Luo Zhou’s birthday party tonight. She changed and prepared to walk out of the bedroom. “Is His Highness in a bad mood?”

She held her bag with one hand and opened the door with the other. She had her phone between her ear and shoulder. But when the door opened, she saw Yan Hua who was about to knock.

“That’s right, Miss Bo. You may not know how important you are to His Highness. The cold war between the two of you has been going on for long enough. Can’t you stop the war and have a good talk?”

Bo Cixue saw Yan Hua looking at her and mouthing to ask if it was Xiaojie. Bo Cixue lowered her eyes and said to Ah Zuo, “It’s not my business whether he’s in a good mood or not. I have something else to do. I’ll hang up first.”

Yan Hua saw that Bo Cixue had hung up and she frowned. “Why are you treating Xiaojie like this?”

“Mom, you don’t want him to be your son-in-law anymore!”

“I don’t want to, but you can’t be like this…”

Before she could finish, Bo Cixue had already run downstairs. “It’s Brother Zhou’s birthday. I might be back late.”

“This child…”

…

Ah Zuo did not know how to react after Bo Cixue hung up.

Miss Bo’s attitude was too different from before!

Did she not like His Highness anymore?

Ah Zuo was slightly stunned as he held the receiver.

Ye Jie came out of the office and walked over when he saw Ah Zuo. “Who are you calling?”

Ah Zuo replied under Ye Jie’s dark and sharp gaze. “Miss Bo.”

“What did you tell her?”

“N-Nothing.”

Ye Jie pursed his lips and played the recording.
