The Best Actor Insists On Living With Me! - Chapter 261
Chapter 261: Chapter 261: The Struggle for Power (5)
Bo Yi lay on the ground, unable to get up because of the injury to his hand. It took a moment for those outside the arena to run over. He sat on the ground, struggling to lift himself up with his hand, but as soon as he moved it, a piercing pain shot through his arm.
Besides his hand, it seemed like his leg was also injured. After all, being thrown to the ground at such speed, and with his tender skin, how could he endure such rough treatment?
Bo Yan looked down at him from above, his expression indifferent, “Does it hurt? Do you want a doctor? Shall I help you up?”
Bo Yi looked up at Bo Yan’s indifferent face. Perhaps because of the pain, his facial expression appeared even more twisted, and he was close to exploding with anger.
Unfortunately for Bo Yi, both Chen, the boss, and the subordinates who had rushed over heard what Bo Yan said. No matter how indifferent Bo Yan was, he at least showed some concern for Bo Yi. Everyone else was busy helping him up in coordination with the doctor, who upon examination, preliminarily determined that Bo Yi probably had a fractured hand.
Other potential injuries like internal bleeding couldn’t be seen at the time and would require further examination at the hospital.
Just as they were about to head to the hospital, Bo Yan approached to show some concern, “Cousin, are you really okay? How about we get a stretcher instead?”
Bo Yi’s face was ashen, and he said nothing.
Bo Yan went on, “Grandfather’s birthday is in half a month. Imagine how upset he would be to see you injured. Not just him, but your father and mother would be heartbroken too.”
It was only then that Bo Yi spoke, “Why don’t you mention that Sicai would also be worried?”
Before Sicai decided to marry Bo Yi, she and Bo Yan had always been presumed by both families to be the future husband and wife. Although Bo Yan had never agreed to date her, an alliance through marriage between the Bo Family and the Xia Family was inevitable. Since the Xia Family thought they only had one daughter, Sicai, who also liked Bo Yan, who else could it be if not them together?
Bo Yi pursued Sicai not only because he was smitten at first sight but also due to these additional considerations. Even when Xia Siyu entered the picture, since she and her siblings Sicai and Xia Ju’an had different mothers and the Xia Family didn’t really recognize her, they wouldn’t pass on the role of the family head to her, and there was no change in power dynamics. He didn’t care.
Bo Yan looked puzzled. Sicai was his wife, and it was normal for her to be worried about him. Was this even a question?
But Bo Yan’s silence somehow got under Bo Yi’s skin. He had thought that there might still be some lingering feelings between the two.
Bo Yi took a deep breath and adjusted his emotions. Even in his disheveled state, he couldn’t show it, especially not his feelings.
He patted his clothes with his uninjured hand, straightened out his outfit and hair, and even put on a smile for Boss Chen, “Boss Chen, forgive me for the laughter, I didn’t provide enough entertainment for you.”
“Not at all, no such thing.” Playing games was like urging someone to drink; you had to go until your opponent vomited blood and fell before considering it enough face given. Although Bo Yi had fallen, he had truly risked everything in the contest, which was clearly giving sufficient face.
“As for our business collaboration…”
“Since President Bo has put in so much effort, I must obviously give some face as well. But as for the share, we can’t concede that.”
Bo Yi smiled, “We can continue to negotiate the share. In half a month is our old master’s birthday, I wonder if Boss Chen has the time?”
“I definitely have to come and pay my respects for the old master’s grand birthday.”
“Then it’s settled.”
As the two men talked and walked away, Bo Yan called out from behind him, “Hold on a second.”
