Fang Yao Decided to Go Along With It...

"You two are going out? Miao, you're a girl. It's not safe to go out this late. Go to bed." Bo Hanmo looked at Yao Wang's younger sister.

Bo Miao's mouth fell open. Damn it, she had forgotten about her plans to go out tonight. Oh well. She couldn't sneak out under her big brother's nose, so she would have to cancel. Sorry, girls.

Her friends: ...Bo Miao, you idiot.

"Got it, big brother," Bo Miao said.

"Everyone, go to bed. You too, Bo Zhe." Bo Hanmo stopped Bo Zhe, who was trying to slip away, and watched them return to their rooms before heading back to his own.

Bo Zhe poked his head out and beckoned. "Bo Miao, come here."

"What is it, second brother?" Bo Miao walked over, puzzled.

"Tomorrow, let's tell Grandma and Grandpa that our sister-in-law doesn't feel secure unless she has money on hand."

"That's all? You can tell them yourself."

"Come on, I'm her brother-in-law. If I act too concerned about her in front of the elders, they might get the wrong idea."

Bo Miao looked him up and down, rolled her eyes, and walked away. "Second brother, have you seen yourself next to big brother? Talk to me about misunderstandings when you can measure up to him."

It took Bo Zhe a moment to realize that the little brat was calling him full of himself.

[○･｀Д´･ ○]

Old Master Bo and his wife exchanged a look. Hearing the siblings' conversation, they both felt sorry for Fang Yao. They had spent so little time together that they had not given her a sense of security. No wonder she had considered every angle when it came to investing.

Oh well. Once they had spent more time together, Fang Yao would gradually feel more secure. For now, they could send her more cash gifts. Hopefully that would help the child feel a little safer.

Come to think of it, they did not even have Fang Yao on WeChat yet.

Bo Hanmo got up early and prepared to go to work. He knew he was supposed to have a car accident, but the time for it had already passed!

Avoiding it forever was not his style, so before bed last night, he had called Assistant Fang and asked him to pick him up for work today.

When Bo Hanmo opened his door, he saw a note flutter down from the doorframe. He read it, raised an eyebrow, and smiled before glancing toward Fang Yao's room.

"Boss."

"Let's go. What's on my schedule today?"

"Today you have... Boss, that's everything. Oh, and you need to go to C City tomorrow." Assistant Fang opened his notebook.

"All right."

Fang Yao slept until the sun was high in the sky. She woke groggily, looked at the sunlight on the windowsill, and slowly climbed out of bed.

The agreement beside her bed cleared her head at once. After returning to her room yesterday, she had felt uneasy about the arrangement, so she had hastily copied a simple authorization agreement from the internet. Only after seeing Bo Hanmo sign it had she felt reassured enough to sleep.

Fang Yao accepted Bo Hanmo's WeChat friend request and sent him a smiley face.

[I had the bank raise your transfer limit. Send me the money when you wake up.]

[Got it. I'll transfer it now.]

Fang Yao's heart ached as she watched the balance on her phone shrink.

When she went downstairs, Old Master Bo was drinking tea, Bo Miao was shopping online beside Old Madam Bo, and Bo Zhe was sprawled across the sofa playing a game on his phone. At the sound of her footsteps, they all looked up.

"Sister-in-law, you're awake! My brother said you're not getting divorced for now and that you're going to give your relationship a chance." Bo Miao flew over happily, hugged Fang Yao, and nuzzled against her.

"You're up." Old Madam Bo put down her phone and smiled warmly at Fang Yao.

Fang Yao blushed with embarrassment. Yesterday, she had sworn she would get divorced, only to turn around and say she wanted to give the relationship a chance. "Mm. You've all been trying to stop us, haven't you? I don't have a boyfriend anyway, so we'll leave things as they are for now. If we're right for each other, we won't divorce. If we aren't, we can divorce then."

Now it was Bo Miao's turn to feel awkward. She should never have brought it up. If her big brother found out she had put the idea of divorce back in her sister-in-law's head, he might knock her head off.

Old Madam Bo and Old Master Bo watched Fang Yao eat breakfast, their expressions complicated. Why had their eldest grandson been so useless? He had had such a good opportunity last night and still had not won over his wife.

Seeing their expressions, Fang Yao thought, Was sleeping in too improper?

Old Madam Bo snapped out of it. "Yao, you're just like Miao and the others. You like to sleep in. Young people should sleep as late as they want. Being able to sleep is a blessing."

Bo Miao nodded along with a smile. "Exactly. If we weren't having guests today, I wouldn't have gotten up this early."

Bo Miao pouted and yawned. (_ _)( - . - )(~O~)...( - . - )

"Guests?" Fang Yao asked.

Bo Zhe lost his game again and irritably tossed his phone onto the sofa. He pushed himself up with his feet. "Yeah, sister-in-law. Aren't you planning to give things a chance with my big brother? We thought we'd introduce you to our relatives and friends so none of them would be blind enough to offend you. Better to let them meet you properly."

Fang Yao frowned and thought it over. She sincerely wanted to give the relationship a chance, and there was a good chance it would work out. Meeting everyone early would do no harm.

Besides, the guests were probably already on their way. It would be awkward to refuse now. Fang Yao looked at the four of them, then finally nodded.

The four Bos had been on edge from the moment Fang Yao frowned, afraid she would refuse.

"Yay! Sister-in-law, let's get our hair done and buy dresses. Big brother knows you like to sleep in, so he moved the party to the afternoon." Bo Miao cried out and clung to Fang Yao's arm.

Her big brother had told her on WeChat that he had given his black card to Fang Yao. He had instructed Bo Miao to get her sister-in-law to enjoy using it and make a habit of it. He was paying for everything today.

Bo Zhe came over too. There was no way he would miss a chance to use his big brother's black card.

Old Madam Bo smiled. "You three go ahead. Your grandfather and I won't tag along with you youngsters."

"Then we're off, Grandma, Grandpa."

"Go on."

As soon as Fang Yao finished breakfast, Bo Miao eagerly pulled her away, with Bo Zhe close behind. Old Madam Bo waved goodbye. "The more I see of Yao, the more I like her."

Old Master Bo pursed his lips. That was not what she had said before.

"Slow down. I haven't changed yet." Fang Yao could only let Bo Miao pull her along, afraid she would send her sprawling if she used any strength.

"Hey, sister-in-law! Zhe! Miao!" Lu You was leaning against a car door. He straightened when he saw them coming.

Bo Miao eyed the car behind Lu You. "You changed cars again? Aren't you afraid Uncle Lu will hit you?"

"Heh, my dad gave it to me as a reward." Lu You scratched his head and grinned.

Bo Zhe was already running his hands over the car, looking hopelessly smitten. "Ahhh, this is the exact car I wanted, even the color! But big brother just wouldn't buy it for me. You, hand over the keys. I'm driving."

Lu You looked pained. He closed his eyes and handed over the keys. "Zhe, drive carefully. It's brand-new. No drifting."

"I know. Stop nagging."

For the first time, Fang Yao felt that shopping was hard work. She had collapsed into a seat, while Bo Miao, still full of energy, studied herself in the mirror.
