Chapter 875 Two Obsessive Brothers
"Yes, I understand." Lin Tan had truly come to a realization.
"So what are your plans now?" Jiang Ruan asked.
"Listen to Qin Mo and go get the marriage certificate." Lin Tan didn't want any more surprises to happen. "After that, visit his mother and try to get her approval."
Jiang Ruan smiled and said, "You will be happy."
Although the probability of Madam Yu agreeing is very low.
Qin Mo cares about Lin Tan with all his heart. With him around, Lin Tan shouldn't have to worry too much about family matters.
"And you?" Lin Tan asked casually, "How are things going with Huo Zhizhou?"
Jiang Ruan: "It's just like that."
Lin Tan: "Hmm?"
Jiang Ruan: "We'll date, but not get married."
Lin Tan thought about everything that had happened at the dinner table: "How has he treated you?"
"He's great." Jiang Ruan never hesitated to praise Huo Zhizhou. "He's gentle and considerate, has a comprehensive view of things, is humorous and witty, and yet responsible."
She was initially attracted to him and married him because he was a good person.
Even after five years of marriage, she is still willing to stay at home as a full-time housewife.
It is precisely because of such deep feelings that we cannot tolerate any flaws, and that even after so long, there is still a grudge there.
"Then why don't you remarry?" Lin Tan didn't have a complete understanding of what happened back then.
"I don't have any plans for that right now." Jiang Ruan is satisfied with her current life, but her fear of marriage hasn't completely disappeared. "I'll wait until my career goes more smoothly and I gain more experience before considering it."
"Alright," Lin Tan said.
The two then chatted about other things.
Only then did they leisurely return.
As soon as they reached the door, they saw Huo Zhizhou and Qin Mo standing there. When the latter saw them, his gaze fell directly on Lin Tan, and his eyes showed undisguised concern.
"Are you keeping such a close watch on me, afraid I'll run away with you?" Jiang Ruan teased, a rare occurrence for her.
Qin Mo: "No."
Jiang Ruan knew they had something to say, so she didn't take up too much of their time: "Then you two can talk slowly, I won't disturb you any longer."
After saying that, she also sent Huo Zhizhou away.
On the way upstairs.
Huo Zhizhou asked Jiang Ruan, "What did you two talk about?"
Jiang Ruan: "Their relationship."
Huo Zhizhou: "What about ours?"
Jiang Ruan: "Hmm?"
Huo Zhizhou: "We didn't talk about our relationship."
Jiang Ruan: "We didn't talk."
Huo Zhizhou: "Why?"
Jiang Ruan: "Shameful."
Huo Zhizhou: "?"
Jiang Ruan walked into the study and sat down: "Or do you want Lin Tan to know that you wanted both sides back then?"
"I didn't want both," Huo Zhizhou denied.
"Still not admitting it," Jiang Ruan said.
Huo Zhizhou was about to speak.
Jiang Ruan looked at him and asked, "Shang made the decision without even consulting me, showing absolutely no respect for me."
"It was my fault." Huo Zhizhou said in a very good manner. "At the time, I thought it was my own business and I had the right to decide, but I neglected the fact that husband and wife are one."
Jiang Ruan gave a light scoff.
It's obvious there's no truth to it.
“I was ignorant in the past, you can punish me however you want.” Huo Zhizhou moved closer to her as he spoke, his eyes only on her. “I will have no complaints.”
Jiang Ruan remained unmoved: "Really?"
Huo Zhizhou: "Mm."
Jiang Ruan: "Then I'll have Su Zhu introduce me to two young men in their early twenties later."
Huo Zhizhou reached out and grasped her waist: "What's the point of introducing me here?"
Jiang Ruan met his gaze: "You support one, I'll support two, that's fair."
"No." Huo Zhizhou pinched her waist.
"Didn't you just say you'd be willing to be punished however you wanted?" Jiang Ruan said deliberately.
“I mean in bed,” Huo Zhizhou said. “You can punish me however you want.”
Jiang Ruan: "Isn't that a reward? What kind of punishment is that?"
A smile played in Huo Zhizhou's eyes.
Ruanruan is no longer easy to fool.
"Get out of my way." Jiang Ruan reached out and pushed him, her gaze falling on the lit computer screen. "I still have a few project proposals to review. Don't delay me from making money."
"I'll take a look for you," Huo Zhizhou said in a low voice.
"Company secrets, outsiders are not allowed to view them." Jiang Ruan stared at him. "If you don't leave, I'll call Mo Mo up and carry you away, and then put you under house arrest."
"So ruthless." Huo Zhizhou raised an eyebrow slightly.
"Who told you to delay my important business?" Jiang Ruan only had her work on her mind.
“Our Ruan Ruan’s composure is getting better and better,” Huo Zhizhou said. “Back then, when you contacted me while I was working overtime, I would drop everything to hug and kiss you.”
"Did I ask you to hug me?" Jiang Ruan retorted.
Huo Zhizhou: "No, it's because you're so attractive that I couldn't help myself."
Jiang Ruan: "If you don't have self-control, you don't have self-control. Why make it sound so elegant?"
Huo Zhizhou: "If I didn't have self-control, would you have been able to get out of bed before?"
Jiang Ruan remained calm and composed: "If it doesn't work, it doesn't work. Why are you trying to shift the blame onto me?"
Huo Zhizhou smiled.
He looked right at her and said, "Fine, I hope you can say that so confidently next time."
"Are you coming or not?" Jiang Ruan remained unmoved. "If you don't leave, I'll really call myself Mo Mo."
Huo Zhizhou refused to leave.
He sat properly on the single sofa next to him.
Seeing that he wasn't bothering her, Jiang Ruan focused her attention on her work.
However, when she occasionally catches a glimpse of a man reading a book by the French windows out of the corner of her eye, a few emotions still stir within her.
A relationship with cracks is hard to repair.
Yet, a soulmate relationship can be irresistibly drawn together.
"What are you thinking about?" Huo Zhizhou was watching her closely.
"It's nothing." Jiang Ruan didn't let him realize her thoughts and naturally changed the subject. "I'm just a little worried about Lin Tan and Qin Mo."
Huo Zhizhou closed the book: "Because of Huo Sinian?"
Jiang Ruan: "How far do you think he will go?"
"He's capable of anything." Huo Zhizhou knew him fairly well. "He'll snatch people, steal weddings, and if he ends up with nothing, he might even drag the person down with him."
Jiang Ruan frowned slightly.
A sense of worry welled up in her heart: "But I still told Lin Tan to feel at ease being with Qin Mo."
"Don't worry," Huo Zhizhou said calmly. "If Huo Sinian really wants to take Lin Tan down with him, I will try to persuade him."
Not for anyone.
Just because he had helped me back then.
I can't really let my blood brother be so obsessed with love that he loses his life.
"Will he listen to you?" Jiang Ruan questioned this.
“He won’t listen to me if we just talk,” Huo Zhizhou had already planned. “But I’ll find a way to make him listen.”
Jiang Ruan's feelings were complicated.
Why are the two Huo brothers so stubborn?
"Don't worry, he won't do anything rash unless absolutely necessary." Huo Zhizhou knew Huo Sinian quite well. "He'll remain rational until all other methods have been tried."
"That's good." Jiang Ruan was slightly relieved.
Lin Tan and Qin Mo were also discussing this matter.
After Jiang Ruan and Huo Zhizhou went upstairs, they found a relatively quiet place to talk.
Looking at the quiet and gentle person in front of him, Qin Mo felt very uncertain. After all, she hadn't looked at him much during the meal, and even when she did, she quickly looked away.
"Forest……"
"Qin Mo," Lin Tan said first.
Qin Mo looked at her.
Lin Tan mustered her courage and asked him, "Are you really determined to get married? No matter how dangerous or unknown the future may be, are you willing to be with me?"
