Chapter 586 He'd do anything as long as she wanted him.
Huo Zhizhou's current situation is not very good.
The moment the call ended, the emotions he had been trying to maintain vanished, leaving him completely lifeless.
Sometimes he thought that as long as he could see Ruan Ruan, as long as he could be with her, he would do anything, even if it meant being locked up and imprisoned like Huo Sinian did to Lin Tan, he would accept it.
As long as she wants him.
She could use any means necessary to hurt him.
But he knew very well that she wouldn't, because she didn't want him.
The various events of the past have long since pushed her far away.
Thinking of this.
He picked up his phone and looked at the chat interface.
Every day he restrained his urge to text her because she didn't like his interruptions, and he held back.
This time—
He still sent the message.
I couldn't hold back.
He missed her so much.
He said, "I called Sui Sui."
Jiang Ruan replied with a single word: 【Mm.】
He knew that the word was just her polite reply, but he was content.
That's enough.
Jiang Ruan knew nothing about his situation. She didn't expect Huo Zhizhou to message her about it. After replying briefly, she went to bed and didn't let herself worry too much about his life.
But for some reason, he still thought about what Sui Sui had said, the photos Jiang's assistant had sent him, and how Huo Si Nian had come to her after their divorce and told her he was dying—
Unless absolutely necessary, Huo Zhizhou would not ignore Sui Sui's messages.
Unless absolutely necessary, Assistant Jiang would not have taken fake photos in advance.
His current state is very similar to what it was back then.
Looking at the chat box with Huo Zhizhou, Jiang Ruan thought it over and over again before typing a few words: Why didn't you reply to Sui Sui before?
I moved my finger to the send button, hesitated for a moment, and then deleted everything.
I'd better not post it.
He finally stopped bothering her, so why should she provoke him?
Once he gets through the most difficult phase, he will have a new beginning.
"Mommy." Sui Sui's voice rang out from outside.
Jiang Ruan got out of bed and opened the door.
She crouched down to be at eye level with him standing by the door: "Did you finish your phone call with your dad?"
"Yes, he should be fine." Sui Sui nodded, not wanting her mother to be affected by her words, she came specifically to tell her, "His tone of voice is the same as before."
Jiang Ruan felt a little relieved: "That's good."
Sui Sui continued, "He also tried to turn me against him."
Jiang Ruan: "Hmm?"
Sui Sui: "Let me help him bring you two together."
Jiang Ruan paused for a moment.
The little bit of worry in my heart gradually dissipated.
The fact that he said that to Sui Sui suggests that nothing is wrong.
“I refused,” Sui Sui said seriously. “I’m not going to help him.”
Jiang Ruan felt relieved: "Thank you, darling."
Sui Sui's round eyes were quite adorable: "You should get some rest, I'm going to sleep too."
Jiang Ruan: "Okay."
Sui Sui: "Goodnight, Mommy."
Jiang Ruan: "Goodnight, baby."
After everyone went to their rooms to sleep, Sui Sui opened her father's chat window and typed a few words: "I'm going to sleep."
Sui Sui: [You should go to bed early after you're done with your work.]
Sui Sui: [Come back from your business trip soon.]
He sent three messages in a row, which Huo Zhizhou saw, but he did not reply.
Before we knew it, it was the next morning.
Seeing that he hadn't received a reply, Sui Sui sent him another message: [Good morning, but it should be good night for you.]
He didn't know what was wrong with his father.
But since he still wants to be with his mother, it's probably nothing serious. He's probably just feeling down or really busy.
He messaged him.
Let him feel that someone still cares about him, and that he can find some comfort when he is feeling down.
that's all.
Sui Sui sends him photos of his three meals a day.
Good morning, good afternoon, good night – I didn't miss a single one.
Over the course of two consecutive days, Huo Zhizhou was affected to some extent.
He had always known that Sui Sui was a bit of a tsundere. Although their interactions mostly consisted of playful banter, he knew they cared about each other.
But he never expected that the little guy could do such a thing.
Ruan Ruan... really took good care of him.
By the third day.
Huo Zhizhou replied to him.
He adjusted his mindset and made the call.
On the way to school, Sui Sui looked adorable with his serious expression: "Uncle Huo, you have five more minutes to talk. I'll be at school soon."
"It's okay, you can call me when you get back from school this afternoon," Huo Zhizhou said.
Every year I'm a bit stunned.
Huo Zhizhou: "Go to school."
Sui Sui: "Oh."
Huo Zhizhou: "Good morning, Sui Sui."
Sui Sui's little mouth pursed up, and her round eyes showed a hint of barely suppressed joy.
He knew.
Dad's condition should be much better than before.
But in fact, that's not the case.
Huo Zhizhou couldn't bear to make a child worry so much, so he tried his best to make the call. As for his health, his anorexia caused by emotional reasons made him unable to eat, and even when he forced himself to eat a little, he would vomit everything he ate.
As for Jiang Ruan's side...
She received a call from the police station, asking her to come in and explain the situation.
She went there quickly.
But she didn't expect that the person in charge of this case was the third young master of the Ning family.
Mo Mo and Tang Bai are the captain's childhood sweethearts.
"Officer Ning," Jiang Ruan greeted first.
Ning Jing sat in his office, looking handsome and refined in his police uniform. He gave off an impression of being serious but very responsible.
He stood up with the documents in his hand and led Jiang Ruan to another room to discuss matters: "Logically, I could have just called your lawyer over, but there are some things I'd like to confirm with you personally."
Jiang Ruan: "You go ahead."
Ning Jing: "This case happened in Jingzhou, so it should be handled by Jingzhou. However, because multiple leads involve this area, we ended up handling it."
Jiang Ruan: "Yes, the lawyer told me."
Ning Jing looked up at her and reminded her, "I'm taking over; no one can pull strings."
In other words...
Once it starts, it doesn't matter who says it.
Even Old Master Qin.
“I know, so I’m at ease,” Jiang Ruan said.
“Okay.” Ning Jing handed her a business card. “This is my phone number. Contact me directly if you have any new leads. Don’t go through anyone else.”
Jiang Ruan understood what he meant: "Okay."
The two chatted for a while longer.
I checked all the clues and details.
After everything was discussed, Jiang Ruan asked, "Is the current evidence enough to convict Qin Muchuan or Qin Luofeng?"
Ning Jing told the truth: "Without new evidence, a conviction cannot be made."
Suspected.
But without evidence, we can only release them.
"Okay, thank you." Jiang Ruan said and prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, Tang Bai and Mo Mo came over and asked, "Are you done chatting?"
Jiang Ruan: "Mm."
Tang Bai and Mo Mo exchanged a glance.
The former curled his lips and said, "Could you give us five minutes? We have something to say to Captain Ning."
"Go ahead." Jiang Ruan didn't ask any more questions, as she could roughly guess what they were going to do.
It's likely that their captain, Gu Sheng, instructed them to lead the way.
