Chapter 693 Confessing Every Year
“I told Zhizhou that it wouldn’t be difficult to keep you and remarry him.” Huo Sinian said this while looking at her, his tone unhurried, “All I need to do is know your weaknesses and vulnerabilities.”
A hint of coldness flashed in Jiang Ruan's eyes.
She knew Huo Sinian was not a good person.
But I never expected him to give such a bad suggestion.
“Guess what he said?” Huo Sinian said.
“I don’t know how to answer, but if he really does that, I will retaliate without hesitation,” Jiang Ruan stated, “and you too.”
If Huo Zhizhou really did that, she might really fall into an extreme struggle.
Her weakness couldn't be more obvious.
Family and friends.
She didn't know what Huo Zhizhou would do now. He had been pestering her relentlessly a while ago, but recently he had stopped eating and drinking in order not to bother her or cause her any trouble.
No one knows whether Huo Sinian will change his mind after hearing his remarks.
A person in an extreme state can have a single thought in the blink of an eye.
"So, you think he'll do that?" Huo Sinian asked.
Jiang Ruan did not answer.
It's not that I think so.
Huo Zhizhou really did do that.
He used Sui Sui to force her to compromise and return to his side.
If she hadn't been his savior, and if he hadn't kept his promise, she wouldn't have been able to get a divorce and would have been trapped by him forever.
Huo Zhizhou is not as stubborn about his promises now as he was before.
He does whatever he pleases, according to his conscience and his own thoughts.
These two are the things you absolutely shouldn't gamble on.
“He won’t.” At this moment, Huo Sinian felt a little sorry for his younger brother. “After I told him about this suggestion, he had Lin Bei kick me out and wouldn’t let me go back.”
Jiang Ruan paused for a moment.
“He did a lot of things to hurt you in the past, but now, all he wants is for you to be happy,” Huo Sinian continued. “He would be willing to die for your well-being.”
After saying this, Huo Sinian got into his car.
As the car drove away, Jiang Ruan stood there motionless for a long time, her hands hanging at her sides unconsciously tightening, her light-colored lips pursing slightly, and a feeling of tightness in her chest.
This emotion came on too quickly.
By the time she realized it, she already felt guilty.
"Boss." Mo Mo noticed the change in her emotions.
"Let's go," Jiang Ruan said. "The sooner we finish this, the sooner we can end it."
Mo Mo didn't leave, and bluntly pointed out: "You're in a bad mood."
Jiang Ruan: "It's okay."
Mo Mo: "You don't need to feel guilty."
Jiang Ruan: "?"
Jiang Ruan glanced at him with some surprise.
Unexpectedly, Mo Mo, who is usually so innocent and straightforward, was able to accurately capture her own emotions.
"Once bitten by a snake, twice shy," Mo Mo comforted her. "You were hurt by your ex-husband in the past, so it's normal for you to worry that he'll use the same methods against you now."
Jiang Ruan pursed her lips.
Mo Mo continued, "It's good that you're like this; you know how to protect yourself and be wary of outsiders."
Jiang Ruan: "But it can also hurt people."
Mo Mo: "That was the seed my ex-husband planted himself."
Jiang Ruan took a deep breath and exhaled the pent-up frustration in her heart.
"Don't worry, with Tang Bai and me here, we won't let your ex-husband find your weaknesses or vulnerabilities," Mo Mo promised. "You're not alone now; you have us and your wife."
Jiang Ruan nodded slightly: "Okay."
After saying that, the two walked inside.
On the way in.
Jiang Ruan couldn't help but ask, "Do you think Huo Zhizhou would do something like that?"
"No one knows until the very end." Mo Mo wouldn't jump to conclusions. "The captain once said that human nature is complex. A person might be a good person one second, but become a bad person the next."
"There are too many factors that influence one's temperament and thinking; we need to observe them carefully."
"Your captain is great," Jiang Ruan said sincerely.
She admired Gu Sheng.
I admire Gu Sheng.
Having her as the team leader is the best arrangement for Tang Bai and Mo Mo.
"It's good when things are good, but it's really bad when things are bad." Mo Mo complained seriously, "When there are no missions, they often trick us and always force me to laugh."
"You look beautiful when you smile," Jiang Ruan said.
Mo Mo: "You have poor eyesight."
Jiang Ruan: "?"
Mo Mo: "A smile that isn't from the heart doesn't look good."
Jiang Ruan: "..."
Jiang remained silent.
These casual conversations quickly overshadowed the impact of Huo Sinian's words. They walked and talked, and soon saw Jiang Yu coming out from the main entrance.
Jiang Yu was taken aback when he saw her, but quickly greeted her politely, "Miss Jiang."
"Where's Sui Sui?" Jiang Ruan asked.
"I just ate and went upstairs to change," Jiang Yu replied, adding casually, "The BOSS is in the garden below the south attic. Would you like to go there? I can take you there."
"I'll go check on Sui Sui first," Jiang Ruan said. "I'll go later."
Jiang Yu said "okay".
Jiang Ruan nodded and went up to find Sui Sui.
Jiang Yu went to find Huo Zhizhou and reported Jiang Ruan's arrival to him.
Huo Zhizhou was not very interested after listening to the whole thing, and his mood was also a bit low. He didn't expect that she wouldn't even let him pick her up.
"This is my fault for not arranging things properly." Jiang Yu took the blame upon himself, not wanting his boss to be immersed in complicated emotions. "I should have had Lin Feng waiting there beforehand."
“If she doesn’t want to sit, it won’t matter even if we arrange it.” Huo Zhizhou understood Jiang Ruan.
Jiang changed the subject: "Are you going over there?"
Huo Zhizhou thought about what happened last night: "I'll go later. She probably has something to talk to Sui Sui about."
As he said this, Sui Sui was happily hugging Jiang Ruan and calling her "Mommy".
The two hadn't seen each other all night, yet they felt very warm towards each other.
"Are you settling in well here?" Jiang Ruan asked, expressing her usual concern.
Sui Sui nodded: "It's a habit."
Jiang Ruan pinched his nose: "Then why didn't you say goodnight to Mommy last night?"
Sui Sui's round eyes paused for a moment.
He said he forgot something last night.
Whenever he is separated from his mother, they say goodnight to each other every night.
"I learned something last night, but I forgot about it for a moment." Sui Sui scratched her head and said with a hint of obedience, "Please forgive me this once because I'm so cute."
"That depends on what you forgot," Jiang Ruan said to him in a relaxed tone.
Sui Sui hesitated for a moment.
Meeting Jiang Ruan's eyes, he hesitated for a moment before truthfully telling her, "I know the truth about Dad."
Jiang Ruan paused for a moment.
Even if I had guessed it beforehand, hearing it from his own ears was still somewhat unexpected.
“I know why he’s become so thin, and I also know why you came this time,” Sui Sui said proactively. “Uncle Lin Bei told me everything, but I had to pester him to tell me.”
Jiang Ruan hugged him: "Mommy shouldn't have kept it from you."
"You only kept it from me so I wouldn't worry," Sui Sui said clearly. "I know all that."
Jiang Ruan: "Is there anything you want to say to Mommy?"
Sui Sui thought for a moment and said truthfully, "Please don't let Dad know that I already know."
