“I’ve already told you, I’m not seeing them!” Bo Desong held a distinctly unfavorable opinion of the individuals outside. “Did Yi mention when he’d be arriving? It’s already 12:30 p.m., so why is the young lady still absent?”

“Young Master and Young Madam have gone out for a meal. They’ll join us after they’ve finished eating,” Butler Wen suggested, noticing that the old sir hadn’t touched his food. “Perhaps you should eat first, Old Sir. Young Master and Young Madam might not be here too soon…”

This young couple seemed to be in no rush to return.

“Humph! That rascal! He didn’t even pick me up for dinner!” Bo Desong felt like his grandson had left him hanging. He grumbled, “He’s left me here high and dry…”

Outside the ward,

Song Ling’s feet ached from standing in her 10-centimeter high heels. She was exhausted and hungry. She gazed at the line of stoic bodyguards before her and spoke with a ingratiating smile, “Handsome bodyguard, we’ve been waiting here for an hour. Lunchtime is almost over, and the food we brought for Elderly Mister is getting cold. Can we please go in and see him now?”

“Madam Fang, 1 don’t mean to be critical,” Madam Lu remarked when she saw the takeout bag from Huiyu Restaurant in Song Ling’s hands, “But who is Old Master Bo? How could he settle for a meal of this caliber?”

She then turned to the bodyguards with a smile. “Gentlemen, please allow us to enter. We are from the Lu Family; I’m sure you’ve heard of us, right? The lunch we brought is from Yunfeng Restaurant! Just look at the luxurious packaging!” Yunfeng Restaurant’s reputation far surpassed that of Hui Cui Restaurant.

Song Ling hadn’t wanted to bring Hui Cui Restaurant either, but she had no other choice. Unable to secure lunch from Yunfeng Restaurant, she had to make do with Hui Cui Restaurant. Realizing that her food paled in comparison to others’, Song Ling retrieved several envelopes she had prepared earlier and placed them into the bodyguards’ hands.

“This is a small token of our family’s appreciation. Please be generous and allow us to see Old Sir,” Song Ling implored with a humble smile, setting aside her pride. “When our family prospers in the future, we won’t forget your kindness!”

Observing Song Ling’s resort to bribery, Madam Lu promptly retrieved several bank cards from her purse. “Gentlemen, how much can you fit inside an envelope? These cards offer a different option…”

Song Ling was becoming increasingly anxious. “Ms. In-law, how can you do this?”

Madam Lu responded with disdain, “Madam Fang, please refrain from using such intimate terms. We can’t be certain if we’ll truly become In-laws!”

Song Ling retorted, “Madam Lu, it was the elders who arranged our engagement. Are you suggesting you want to break your word?”

Madam Lu shot back, “If my father were to discover that your family’s biological daughter was raised by a cleaner, he might rise from his grave to object!”

Song Ling implored, “Why are you saying this in front of the children…” The two women continued to argue as they handed their offerings to the unyielding bodyguards.

However, the bodyguards remained resolute, and the envelopes and bank cards fell to the ground.

Fang Liguo personally bent down to pick up the envelopes and discreetly placed them in the bodyguard’s pocket. “Gentlemen, there’s no need to stand on ceremony. These are just tokens of our appreciation…”

One of the bodyguards noticed that Fang Liguo also held a handful of other gifts: Western ginseng, bird’s nest, lion’s mane mushroom…

They couldn’t help but look down on him. After all, any servant in the Bo Family could expect such gifts on a holiday! Did Fang Liguo underestimate the old sir? Or did he believe these low-grade gifts could curry favor?

The bodyguards all withdrew the envelopes Fang Liguo had placed in their pockets and dropped them on the ground. Regardless of how much money was in an envelope, it was still only a few thousand yuan. Their monthly salary exceeded 100,000 yuan! They weren’t willing to jeopardize their jobs for such a small sum.

Madam Lu took great satisfaction in seeing the Fang couple’s attempts thwarted.

Noticing that neither force nor persuasion had any effect on the bodyguards, Song Ling suddenly noticed her daughter’s good looks. She urgently tugged on Fang Jiayi’s clothing. “Jiayi, tell these young men…”

“Auntie, 1 think it’s best if I handle this,” Lu Chen discerned Song Ling’s intentions and promptly stepped forward to shield Fang Jiayi. “Jiayi is still quite young; allow me to take care of it.”

“How could I impose on Young Master Lu!” Song Ling directed her frustration toward Lu Chen. “You heard what your mother mentioned earlier. Your potential marriage with Jiayi might not even materialize!”

Just then, Butler Wen emerged from the ward and called out, “Clear the way, clear the way!”

Everyone turned their attention to a girl who had just exited the nearby elevator. Her long, fair legs came into view, and her deep, clear eyes and striking face immediately captured everyone’s attention. She exuded an aura of confidence from head to toe..
