Chapter 127 Dad can do it with just a flick of his finger.
Huo Zhizhou left around the same time as the police. When they got downstairs, he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he sat in his car and looked at the tall building where Jiang Ruan was.
About ten minutes later, Assistant Jiang arrived: "BOSS."
Huo Zhizhou: "The results are in?"
"It's out." Assistant Jiang handed him the file bag he was holding. "After examination by multiple institutions, Jiang Chenren is not Miss Jiang's biological father, and there is no blood relation between them."
Huo Zhizhou looked at the documents one by one.
As Jiang's assistant had said, Jiang Ruan was not Jiang Chenren's child.
"Should we investigate Miss Jiang's biological father?" Assistant Jiang asked.
"No need." Huo Zhizhou said indifferently. Once Jiang An's matter was investigated, Jiang Ruan's father would naturally have clues. Thinking of this, he asked another question, "When did Jiang An and Jiang Chenren get married?"
"We got our marriage certificate in April, which is less than five months after Miss Jiang's birthday," Assistant Jiang answered one by one.
So that's how it is.
Jiang Chenren most likely knows that Jiang An is pregnant.
"I investigated carefully. On the surface, it seems that Jiang Chenren and Jiang An had an unplanned pregnancy, but when we asked the Jiang family members when they started dating, everyone gave a different answer," Assistant Jiang added.
Huo Zhizhou stroked the appraisal results in his hand.
Assistant Jiang continued to report everything he had found out during this period: "In addition, as you predicted, the Jiang Group was indeed founded by Jiang An, but she only participated for three months before handing over full authority to Jiang Chenren."
"Does she own shares?" Huo Zhizhou didn't know much about the Jiang Group.
Jiang's Special Assistant: "No."
Huo Zhizhou's eyes darkened little by little.
So, it's highly likely that what we overheard Jiang Ruan saying to Jiang Chenren last time was true.
Jiang An and Jiang Chenren reached a certain agreement: she would help him start his company and get it up and running quickly, and he would promise her something else, though whether it would involve raising a daughter is currently unknown.
"Does Jiang Ruan's mother have a friend?" Huo Zhizhou asked, recalling past events.
Jiang's assistant was quite familiar with all the information: "Yes, his name is Xu Jiu. He went abroad some time after Jiang An's accident and rarely comes back."
"Contact her and arrange a time to meet." Huo Zhizhou felt she was the key to their success.
“Okay,” Assistant Jiang replied.
Huo Zhizhou hummed in agreement.
When Xu Jiu received the message from Assistant Jiang, she had some doubts. After thinking it over, she called Jiang Ruan and asked, "How are things between you and Huo Zhizhou lately?"
"We're getting a divorce soon." Jiang Ruan felt much relieved at the thought of getting a divorce on Thursday.
She doesn't have to feel uncomfortable all the time because he's with Su Anran.
There is no longer any connection between them.
Xu Jiu glanced at the email that Assistant Jiang had sent her: Could it be that Huo Zhizhou wanted her to persuade Ruan Ruan not to get a divorce?
"What's wrong?" Jiang Ruan asked, knowing that Xu Jiu wasn't someone who would ask questions casually.
Xu Jiu: "I'm wondering when I'll come back."
Although I said I would go back last time to prevent the girl from discovering the true relationship between Jiang Chenren and Jiang An, I have a lot of things to do lately, so it's a bit difficult for me to leave.
Jiang Ruan: "Come back?"
Xu Jiu: "Okay, I'll help you find your mother's bank card and make you a super rich woman."
Jiang Ruan: "..."
Jiang Ruan sighed.
She believed most of what was said, but she really couldn't believe that her mother was pregnant with hundreds of millions of dollars.
“Okay.” After much consideration, Xu Jiu decided to keep the appointment. “Let me know when you’ve set the date for your divorce from Huo Zhizhou. I’ll come back when I have some free time and see my half-dead daughter.”
"Okay," Jiang Ruan agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Ruan glanced at the calendar.
A month isn't a long time, but it's not short either. There are only a few days left, and it's time to confirm with him when we'll get our marriage certificate. After all, she's a working professional now and needs to consider taking time off work.
Amidst a jumble of thoughts, she sent Huo Zhizhou a message: "Are you free on Thursday?"
Huo Zhizhou had just arrived home when he saw the message. He knew the purpose of the message, but he didn't reply.
It went on until night.
Jiang Ruan didn't get a reply, and in her thoughts, she couldn't help but think of the question Ye Yanzhi had asked her before: What if Huo Zhizhou didn't leave?
The thought that these words might come true made me a little uncomfortable, so after having dinner with Sui Sui, I called her and got straight to the point without even saying hello: "Did you see the message I sent you?"
Huo Zhizhou is currently at a bar with Gu Shixi and Si Ning.
He glanced at the wine in front of him and didn't lie: "I saw it."
I saw it, why didn't you reply?
She was about to say those words on her own, but she held back before she could speak.
He has no obligation to reply to her messages; asking might just give him something to pick on.
“Wednesday is the last day of the cooling-off period, and we can get the divorce certificate on Thursday.” Jiang Ruan asked him clearly and calmly. “If you are free on Thursday, I can ask for leave from work to go together.”
Huo Zhizhou's eyes darkened little by little.
She really wanted to divorce him.
Gu Shixi and Si Ning both noticed his change in mood. The latter looked at Gu Shixi with a gossipy gaze, silently asking: Who is so powerful that they can make him feel bad with just a few words?
Gu Shixi: "..."
Besides Jiang Ruan, who else is there?
But he dared not say it, for he would get beaten up if he did!
"Are you listening?" Jiang Ruan asked calmly.
Huo Zhizhou pursed his thin lips, feeling a slight discomfort in his chest: "Yes."
Jiang Ruan wanted to say something to him.
If you're listening but not answering, is there something wrong with you?
"Then do you have time..." Before he could finish speaking, a dial tone suddenly came from the phone, and the call was forced to end.
Jiang Ruan: "???"
Jiang Ruan frowned slightly, opened his message dialog box, and sent him a message: 【?】
After a while, there was no reply from the other end, so she had to dial again. She was met with a mechanical female voice—"Hello, the number you dialed is currently switched off..."
Jiang Ruan: "..."
I really will thank you.
Why shut down the computer at a time like this?
If she knew that Huo Zhizhou had turned off the phone on his own initiative, she'd probably be furious.
"Whose call was that?" Si Ning asked, her curiosity piqued. "Since you managed to turn off your phone to avoid me, introduce me to this person."
Huo Zhizhou put his phone down and looked up unhurriedly: "Want to know?"
Si Ning: "Nonsense."
Huo Zhizhou: "Have you finished the task I assigned you?"
"It's not like it's anything super difficult." Si Ning didn't care about it at all, exuding a relaxed and carefree vibe. "Dad can just move his fingers."
Gu Shixi rubbed his forehead.
Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up?
"Then you move." Huo Zhizhou had already automatically ignored her terms of address. "If you don't find out the truth today, it will be treated as negligence, and your reward will be halved."
Gu Shixi opened his mouth, "Wasn't it supposed to be before next Wednesday?"
Considering that he was the one being targeted by these words, he didn't hesitate to abandon Si Ning and leave her to die.
“Sometimes I really hate you rich people.” Si Ning said, picking up her laptop. “You always threaten me with money. Believe me or not, I can hack into your company and transfer all the money in your accounts.”
