Chapter 307 It is my duty to solve problems for the boss.
Li Zhishen didn't care about this at all. He had seen that look in his eyes before when he was young, and every time Qin Muchuan lost miserably.
"Isn't Uncle Li's behavior a bit excessive?" Qin Mo's tone was calm, but with a hint of coldness. "My father is, after all, the head of the Qin family."
“If he weren’t the head of the Qin family, he wouldn’t have been allowed to leave on his own just now,” Li Zhishen said.
Qin Momo looked at him with her dark eyes.
The two grown men stared at each other.
It was Jiang Ruan's appearance that broke the deadlock.
She walked up to Qin Mo and said directly, "I want to talk to you."
Qin Mo looked away: "Okay."
The two walked out of the villa under Li Zhishen's complicated gaze.
Seeing Jiang Ruan looking preoccupied, Qin Mo didn't transfer his feelings for Li Zhishen to her, and asked indifferently, "What do you want to talk about?"
"Were you involved in my mother's accident?" Jiang Ruan asked this most sensitive question without any preamble, at the moment when he was most relaxed.
On the way back, she kept thinking about whether or not to confront Qin Mo about this.
After thinking it over and considering their time together, she decided to ask directly.
If Qin Mo is.
She needs to rethink her strategy regarding her enemies.
The fact that he could remain so gentlemanly and polite even after participating in the situation means that she will have to be extremely wary of him no matter what happens in the future, and she cannot believe a single word he says.
She has a lot to do and doesn't want to waste time on this.
Qin Mo was taken aback, not expecting her to ask this question.
Jiang Ruan didn't urge him, but waited for his answer.
"What did Qin Jiangye tell you?" Qin Mo regained his composure after a moment, his indifferent face showing little expression.
Jiang Ruan did not answer.
Although Qin Jiangye is despicable, he hasn't done anything too outrageous so far.
Huo Zhizhou, who was not present, thought to himself: I haven't told Sui Sui about this yet.
"I'm sorry about what happened to my aunt." Qin Mo answered the question directly for the first time, but the answer was not clear. "Just consider it as me having been hostile to me in front of everyone."
Jiang Ruan: "?"
What does it mean to say that he did it?
Qin Mo looked at his little cousin and reminded her, "I suggest you don't bring up this kind of question in front of Qin Luofeng and my dad."
Jiang Ruan: "I know."
She chose Qin Mowen because she knew there was a 60% chance he was a good person.
Although this person is cold and aloof, they are very respectful throughout the interaction. A bad person could not possibly do so many details so well.
"Hmm." Qin Mo gave a faint reply and turned to leave.
Jiang Ruan didn't ask any more questions and watched him get into the car.
The next second.
Mo Mo suddenly appeared beside her.
Jiang Ruan: "???"
Mo Mo stared at the car as it drove further and further away, and replied with a serious face, "Now it seems that your cousin is fine."
“He’s fine.” Jiang Ruan confirmed her suspicions after those two sentences of conversation. “But I suspect you have a problem.”
Mo Mo's face showed a question mark.
Jiang Ruan said, "It's wrong to eavesdrop on the boss's conversations with others."
Mo Mo reiterated her job duties: "As your assistant, bodyguard, and driver, I must be by your side 24 hours a day. Except in special circumstances, I may not leave my post without your permission."
“As a bodyguard and driver, you talk too much,” Jiang Ruan teased him as usual. “As an assistant, you interfere too much in your boss’s affairs.”
Mo Mo said, "It is my duty to solve problems for the boss."
Jiang Ruan stopped teasing him and started talking about serious matters: "Do you really think Qin Mo is okay?"
“No.” Mo Mo has always been good at judging people. “Based on his words and expression just now, he didn’t do what the lady did. He must have been implicated for some reason.”
Jiang Ruan also thought so.
However, Qin Jiangye couldn't remember all the conversations at the time, so she couldn't make a judgment.
After seeing the outsiders off, Jiang Ruan returned to the villa, only to realize upon entering that there was still an uninvited guest in the house.
"Would you like some fruit?" Li Zhishen asked, holding a fruit platter with various freshly cut fruits.
Jiang Ruan refused: "I won't eat."
Li Zhishen showed no sign of disappointment and naturally replied, "Then your mother and I will take it upstairs. She must be a little hungry after a busy afternoon."
Jiang Ruan hummed in agreement.
If Chairman Li hadn't hurt his mother when he was young, she would have been very supportive of them being together, but some things can only be regretted and saddened.
More than half an hour later.
Jiang Ruan ate with Jiang An and Sui Sui.
I thought Li Zhishen would stay for a free meal, but he left when the food was served, as if he really considered me his mother's subordinate.
"What's wrong?" Jiang An asked, noticing her dazed expression.
Jiang Ruan shook her head: "It's nothing."
Jiang An guessed: "Because of Li Zhishen?"
Jiang Ruan pursed her lips, considering how to say certain things.
“We don’t need to hold back between us. Say what you want to say and ask what you want to ask,” Jiang An said sincerely. “If there’s anything I don’t want to answer, I’ll tell you directly.”
"There's something that's been bothering me for a long time." Jiang Ruan thought of something from a long time ago when she saw Li Zhishen's relationship with his mother.
Jiang An asked, "What?"
Jiang Ruan said, "When you were still asleep, Aunt Xu mentioned Uncle Li to me. She said that he had let you down by marrying someone else, and his guilt towards you was because the person he married later was not as good as you."
Jiang An listened attentively.
“But then I heard that he had no wife or children.” Jiang Ruan voiced her doubts. “There seems to be a contradiction between the two.”
She hadn't asked before because she was afraid her mother would be upset if she heard, but today, seeing Li Zhishen walking around the house and her mother tacitly approving of him being a "free slave," she finally decided to find out.
“It’s not contradictory.” Jiang An’s expression remained calm.
Jiang Ruan: "?"
Jiang An told her the reason: "Your Aunt Xu probably told you that because she was afraid you would recognize Li Zhishen without knowing the past, so she just lied to you."
"So he really has no wife and no children?" Jiang Ruan asked.
“If you don’t acknowledge him, then you’re without a wife and children,” Jiang An told her this fact.
Jiang Ruan felt a little relieved.
If Li Zhishen is really as Aunt Xu said, she would feel very disgusted, but the things he did to her mother back then also showed that he was a scumbag who lacked responsibility and accountability.
"Don't put unnecessary pressure on yourself." Jiang An knew that she was a meticulous person. "Most things can be left to nature. Your task now is to rest well and recharge your energy."
Jiang Ruan nodded.
Sui Sui, who was quietly eating her meal, suddenly looked up and asked, "What should I call Chairman Li?"
Jiang An thought for a moment and said, "It depends on your mood. Grandpa or Grandpa Li are both fine."
In terms of blood relation, he should be the maternal grandfather, but if we disregard blood relation and only look at seniority, Li Zhishen is indeed the grandfather of Sui Sui.
"And what about when you saw Mr. Qin?" Sui Sui asked again.
Jiang An: "Grandpa Qin."
Sui Sui nodded, agreeing that it made sense.
Compared to the harmonious atmosphere here, Qin Muchuan was absolutely furious. The first thing he did when he got home was to throw a tantrum and smash a porcelain vase worth hundreds of thousands of yuan on the floor!
