Chapter 683 Bet

"Miss Jiang, young master, please come in," Assistant Jiang said as he approached.

Jiang Ruan nodded slightly and led Sui Sui inside.

Huo Zhizhou was with them.

They didn't say a word throughout the entire process.

Once seated in the restaurant's private room, Sui Sui stared at Huo Zhizhou's listless face, thinking about what his mother had told him before, and deliberately said, "Uncle Huo."

Huo Zhizhou looked up.

Sui Sui's voice was crisp and clear: "You look so pale, is it because you're on a hunger strike?"

Huo Zhizhou: "What hunger strike?"

Sui Sui snorted coldly.

I plan to talk to him later when Mommy is busy with other things.

He absolutely had to expose him.

"Why are you dressed so formally today?" Huo Zhizhou asked with some curiosity, looking at his adult-like attire. "Are you going to be a flower boy?"

Jiang Ruan: "..."

Sui Sui: "!!!"

Every year, my whole body stiffens.

He said he had forgotten something important.

He clearly wanted to maintain a mature image in front of his father, letting him know that he was now very mature and composed.

"You look so unwell, did you go out and cheat on someone last night?" He kept himself calm and retorted.

Jiang Ruan: "?"

Huo Zhizhou: "?"

Both of them turned their gazes to him at the same time.

It seems they never expected such words to come out of the little one's mouth.

"Honey," Jiang Ruan's expression became a little more serious, "where did you learn to say that?"

Sui Sui looked at Huo Zhizhou: "There he is."

A hint of doubt flashed in Huo Zhizhou's eyes.

I don't recall him ever saying anything like that.

“Last year when you went to celebrate Aunt Su Zhu’s birthday, he stayed home with me.” Sui Sui explained the situation, her tone somewhat childish but very serious. “An uncle on the other end of the phone saw that he was in a bad mood and asked him if he had gone to cheat on someone.”

Huo Zhizhou thought for a moment.

I have a few scattered memories.

That day, he stayed up for two nights because of a major project at the company. He originally wanted to go with Ruan Ruan, but Ruan Ruan told him to rest at home. Who knew that Gu Shixi would call him to talk about something.

Seeing his haggard face, I said that.

Sui Sui was sleeping next to him at the time, so he thought he hadn't heard it and didn't pay much attention.

"Is that person Gu Shixi?" Huo Zhizhou asked.

Sui Sui shook her head: "I don't know."

He only heard the voice and didn't open his eyes. He wasn't very familiar with Uncle Gu either.

Jiang Ruan glanced at Huo Zhizhou, but ultimately said nothing more.

There's no need to delve into what happened before the divorce.

She just needs to pay more attention to Sui Sui's condition after that.

After that, the three of them started eating. Because they had been on the plane for so long, Jiang Ruan and Sui Sui didn't have a very good appetite, and they ate much slower than usual.

At the same time.

Outside.

Mo Mo stayed with Lin Bei and Jiang's assistant.

Looking at the closed door of the private room, Lin Bei stroked his chin and gossiped with Assistant Jiang, "I wonder how things are going between the BOSS and Miss Jiang?"

Mo Mo: "Not very good."

Lin Bei and Jiang's assistant looked at him.

The former asked directly, "You're not Miss Jiang, how do you know?"

Mo Mo: "I'm the boss's special assistant, I know him."

Lin Bei glanced at Jiang Yu, the assistant, and continued to say to Mo Mo, "Jiang Yu is the BOSS's assistant. He spends much more time with Miss Jiang and the BOSS than you do with Miss Jiang, and he hasn't said anything."

"It only shows that he doesn't know enough about the boss and his ex-husband," Mo Mo said seriously.

Lin Bei nudged Jiang Yu with his elbow.

He was being gestured to speak.

Jiang Yu glanced at him but didn't say a word.

Judging from the situation when they met, Ms. Jiang was indeed quite indifferent to the BOSS.

This ordinariness won't change just because we sit down to eat together.

His current concern is that the food inside isn't really suitable for the current BOSS. Although he's been eating every meal as Miss Jiang instructed, he hasn't been eating enough and his body hasn't recovered yet.

If you eat whatever you want, you might put a strain on your stomach and body.

"Say something!" Lin Bei was only focused on winning against Mo Mo. If he couldn't win the fight, he couldn't afford to lose in something like this. "Don't you understand the principle of 'losing the game but not the spirit'?"

Assistant Jiang was still a little worried: "You guys keep talking, I'll go make a phone call."

Lin Bei: "?"

Lin Bei grabbed him and whispered, "Why are you making a phone call at a time like this?"

Jiang's Special Assistant: "Don't worry about it."

After saying that, he walked to the side, took out his phone, and sent a message to Huo Zhizhou.

The gist of the question was whether he wanted any more dishes.

When he booked the restaurant, he asked if we should prepare a dish suitable for him, but the boss refused, saying he didn't want Ms. Jiang and Sui Sui to realize that he was seriously ill.

He also said that if Miss Jiang asked, he should say that he has improved a lot after this period of treatment.

But now...

Huo Zhizhou did not look at his phone.

From the moment he saw Jiang Ruan, he immediately put his phone on silent. He didn't want anything to disturb his reunion with Jiang Ruan, and he didn't want to miss any time he could spend with her.

Jiang Yu, having received no reply, simply messaged the doctor and nutritionist at the villa, asking them to prepare some stomach-soothing foods so that the BOSS could take better care of himself when he returned.

Having explained all of this.

He then walked back to where Mo Mo and Lin Bei were.

When he arrived, the two were making a bet.

“Let’s bet on whether Miss Jiang will go to stay with the BOSS!” Lin Bei said.

Mo Mo remained extremely calm: "What are we betting on?"

Lin Bei: "Bet...bet..."

Lin Bei thought for a moment, then didn't know what to say.

money?

He's not short of money as the boss's bodyguard.

As Miss Jiang's bodyguard and special assistant, Mo Mo is probably not short of money.

"Whoever loses has to call the other team the boss," Mo Mo said. "You have to do whatever the boss tells you to do, no disobedience, no excuses."

“Okay!” Lin Bei blurted out.

Mo Mo took out her phone and opened one of the apps: "To record the audio, so I don't try to renege."

Lin Bei: "Fine, I'll record it."

The two repeated what they had just said.

Lin Bei, knowing that Sui Sui would be there this time, was full of confidence: "Whoever tries to renege on their promise will be a coward."

Mo Mo: "Okay."

Lin Bei was secretly delighted.

Given his relationship with the young master, if he just acted cute and pitiful, the young master would definitely help him.

"If the boss's orders conflict with those of the boss and your BOSS, the boss's orders shall prevail," Mo Mo added thoughtfully.

"Are you sure you want this one?" Lin Bei thought Mo Mo was too naive. "Don't cry later."

Mo Mo: "Yes."

Lin Bei: "Fine, don't say I'm bullying you."

Mo Mo: "As long as you don't cry."

Seeing their childish behavior, Jiang Yu didn't want to pay any attention to them.

Such a grown-up, yet acting like a child.

"Aren't you coming?" Lin Bei leaned closer to Jiang Yu, winking at him.

"While Miss Jiang is still inside, you still have a chance to back out." Jiang Yu knew more about Jiang Ruan than Lin Bei, so he naturally knew that Jiang Ruan most likely wouldn't stay at the BOSS's place.
