Chapter 550 Shameless and Unscrupulous
"We talked about it, so we talked about it," Huo Zhizhou said. "It's not like we're getting married."
Jiang's assistant and Lin Bei and the others exchanged glances.
Lin Bei took the initiative to speak, saying, "If you've started talking, it means Miss Jiang likes that person. Given time, they might still get married."
Huo Zhizhou's eyes darkened slightly.
He was certain that Jiang Ruan would not date anyone, much less marry someone else, in the short term.
But given enough time, it's not impossible.
If Jiang Ruan were to actually marry someone else, it would mean that her feelings for that person had surpassed those for him, and that she was willing to overcome her fear of marriage to be with him.
If that day ever comes—
"It can't be done," Huo Zhizhou said.
Lin Bei and the others were somewhat curious: "Why?"
Huo Zhizhou said, word by word, "I will snatch it."
Assistant Jiang: "..."
Lin Bei: "..."
Do you really have to be so self-righteous?!
"What kind of look is that?" Huo Zhizhou was unhappy with their gaze.
"What you're doing is damaging Miss Jiang's relationship," Lin Bei said, emphasizing each word. "In a sense, you're somewhat similar to that Su Anran from before—"
The sounds behind them grew fainter and fainter.
Lin Bei was really afraid that the BOSS would get angry and throw him out.
Huo Zhizhou's complexion visibly worsened.
“It’s different,” he said.
Everyone: ?
Assistant Jiang mustered his courage: "How is it different?"
“She doesn’t like me. She just likes to snatch Ruan Ruan. She only wants someone who can protect her from the wind and rain. There is no uniqueness.” Huo Zhizhou analyzed rationally, “I only want Ruan Ruan.”
“But you’re being a mistress,” Lin Feng said bluntly.
Lin Bei: "!!"
You idiot!
"If Ruan Ruan wants it, then so be it," Huo Zhizhou said.
Lin Feng said seriously, "Miss Jiang is not the kind of person who is fickle."
Huo Zhizhou: "..."
Lin Feng: "You have no chance."
Lin Feng: "You can't become one even if you want to."
Lin Feng: "This might remind Miss Jiang of the unpleasantness of your divorce."
They could see their boss's expression visibly worsen.
Lin Bei quickly covered his mouth, her heart pounding in her throat: "Stop talking!"
"I didn't say anything wrong!" Lin Feng mumbled.
Lin Bei forcibly covered his mouth to stop him from speaking, and apologized to Huo Zhizhou with a smile: "My brother is not very bright and doesn't know how to keep his mouth shut, please don't take it to heart."
"Mmm..." Lin Feng didn't utter a single word.
Lin Bei's heart pounded like thunder.
They panicked.
Sooner or later, he'll be finished because of his good brother!
"Are we going to see Miss Jiang tomorrow?" Assistant Jiang changed the subject, not wanting to continue in this oppressive atmosphere.
To remain silent.
The boss will probably be really angry.
“She goes when she’s going out, and she doesn’t go when she’s not going out,” Huo Zhizhou said.
Even though Sui Sui knew that he and Ruan Ruan would have disagreements, and that he was much more mature and composed than his peers, he still didn't want him to see it.
The shadows of childhood are terrifying, and he understands them better than anyone else.
Even if there's only a 0.01% chance, he doesn't want it to happen.
Jiang, Special Assistant: "Okay."
He quickly gave Lin Bei and Lin Feng a wink.
Lin Bei immediately took his older brother and slipped away.
It was nearing midnight.
Huo Zhizhou was lying in bed.
He stared at Jiang Ruan's chat window for a long time, and finally sent a "goodnight" message without saying anything more.
Jiang Ruan saw it.
She didn't reply.
She was still video chatting with Su Zhu.
She had thought that Huo Zhizhou would distance himself from her out of remorse for the past, or at least be polite and courteous and not offend her. But his actions today made her realize she was wrong.
Not knowing how to solve the problem, she had no choice but to seek help from Su Zhu.
"Ha, you scumbag!" Su Zhu cursed as always, harboring a great deal of resentment towards Huo Zhizhou. "He actually pulled this stunt, it's completely disrespectful, offensive, and sexually harassing!"
Jiang Ruan did not refute.
She did feel offended.
"If you ask me, you should have Aunt Jiang kick him out and make sure he never appears in front of you again." Su Zhu had a lot of opinions about Huo Zhizhou.
“Mom hasn’t been back to Haicheng for over twenty years.” Jiang Ruan has grown up and understands more things. “To make Huo Zhizhou disappear from my sight completely, I would need to use too many connections. I don’t want her to go through that trouble.”
Su Zhu thought for a moment.
That makes sense.
"Besides," Jiang Ruan thought about what happened today, "Huo Zhizhou might not be able to get rid of him."
"How so?" Su Zhu asked.
"How can you control someone who has no shame, no self-respect, and doesn't care about life or money?" Jiang Ruan genuinely found Huo Zhizhou difficult to deal with. "He's all alone and fears nothing."
He was slapped in the face, but he remained calm.
He doesn't care at all when people insult or curse him.
As for the money, the Huo Group's shares were simply given up.
Not to mention the fate of someone who would stab themselves without hesitation.
"It's a bit difficult." Su Zhu frowned, feeling like she had encountered a once-in-a-century problem.
Jiang Ruan was almost driven to despair.
At this moment, she especially hoped that Huo Zhizhou would act the same way he does in front of her, just as he does in public, so that her two slaps yesterday would be enough to send him away.
But—
"Are you dating?" Su Zhu asked. "He can't possibly ruin your happiness, can he?"
Jiang Ruan thought for a moment: "It's not impossible."
Huo Zhizhou is too crazy.
He's capable of anything to achieve his goals.
Not to mention things that don't require him to pay any price.
"Why don't we get his money first? You can't do anything without money," Su Zhu suggested. "Didn't he say he'd pay any price? You could say the first price is to give all his money to you or Sui Sui, leaving nothing for him."
“He receives dividends from different companies every month and every quarter,” Jiang Ruan said.
Su Zhu: "I'll transfer it to you as soon as I get it. I can't keep it for myself. That way, if he doesn't have money, he can't get people to do things for him, and he can't amount to anything on his own."
“His reputation is more valuable than his money.” Jiang Ruan had known him well during the five years she was married to him. “Those people would rather have his advice or tips than give him money.”
Su Zhu ground down her molars.
I'm so angry!!!
Why isn't she this good!
"Use the knife," Su Zhu said. "It's the only way."
Jiang Ruan: "It's illegal, and besides, his crime doesn't warrant the death penalty."
Su Zhu was in despair.
Think about it carefully.
If she encountered such a lunatic, she'd probably really want to kill him.
“You’re now a director of the Qin Group. It’s not appropriate for you to call the police so frequently for minor issues. If the other shareholders knew, they would probably think you have a problem with your abilities.” Su Zhu was worried for her.
Jiang Ruan: "Yes."
That's why.
She is complex.
If it were someone else, it would be easy to solve.
But it was Huo Zhizhou who was shameless, didn't care about money or life.
"Let your blood-related father fight him." This was the only solution Su Zhu could come up with in the end. "Anyway, he wants to acknowledge you as his daughter and get along with you, so he should be happy to deal with Huo Zhizhou."
Jiang Ruan thought for a moment: "What if he makes me call him Dad after he does it?"
"Don't worry about it. He wants you to call him Dad now too." Su Zhu, an observer with a clear perspective, said seriously, "If he really said that, you would say that he wants to be my dad after doing such a small thing? It would be too easy for him to be my dad."
Jiang Ruan was thinking.
"Of course, you have to be tactful. I did help you out, so we should still be polite to each other," Su Zhu said.
"Okay," Jiang Ruan said. "I'll give it a try tomorrow."
