Chapter 761 Using Years as an Excuse
With just one simple sentence, Jiang Ruan understood what he meant.
Thinking that this matter would only benefit Lin Tan and not harm her, she did not hesitate any longer and asked directly, "How do you want to help?"
"Follow the instructions." As he spoke, Qin Mo handed her the documents in his hand.
Jiang Ruan took it.
Turning the pages one by one.
It was only then that they realized this was a perfect star-making plan. As long as Lin Tan was dedicated to her work, acted well, and didn't expose any bombshell scandals, she could become a top star who was famous all over the country in two years at most.
Qin Mo is really willing to spend a lot of money.
“I will give this to Chi Qian,” Jiang Ruan said, “but I don’t know if she will suspect me, after all, I’m not an expert in this area.”
She doesn't really understand how to create stars.
The agent team is better at it.
Qin Mo said, "Don't give it to her."
Jiang Ruan: "?"
Jiang Ruan was initially puzzled.
After a moment's thought, she understood: "You want me to talk to Chi Qian little by little and let her come up with ideas? And then I'll revise it based on your suggestion?"
"Hmm." Qin Mo nodded slightly.
Jiang Ruan looked at him.
I don't quite understand Qin Mo's purpose in doing this.
"You..." Jiang Ruan hesitated for a moment, but still asked the question that was on her mind, "Are you pursuing her?"
Qin Mo did not answer.
But silence implies acquiescence.
“When you’re pursuing someone, you need them to know how you feel.” Jiang Ruan tried to get him to talk to her about it himself. “If you just give silently and don’t say anything, you can’t even make your presence felt.”
She could tell that Qin Mo had a special feeling for Lin Tan.
She could tell from the moment she asked her who Qin Mo was.
However, being special doesn't necessarily mean it's romantic love between a man and a woman. If Qin Mo didn't take the initiative, Lin Tan most likely wouldn't develop feelings for him.
After all these years, she's come through it all.
"It's not the right time yet," Qin Mo said after a long silence.
It's not the right time for her to know.
I knew she would refuse.
He hoped she would stand where she liked, reach the height she desired, fulfill her ideals, and achieve great success.
"Aren't you afraid that someone else will steal the credit for what you've done?" Jiang Ruan said seriously, without a hint of joking. "Don't forget that Huo Sinian is also in Haicheng. He's a cunning and calculating person."
Huo Sinian used to be a lunatic.
Huo Sinian seems to be pretending to be a good person now.
In case a misunderstanding occurs—
"No, it won't." Qin Mo was confident about this.
Seeing that he said that, Jiang Ruan didn't say anything more and agreed directly: "Okay, I will find time to talk to Chi Qian."
Qin Mo expressed his gratitude: "Thank you."
"Why don't you look for Qin Jiangye? I remember Lin Tan works at his company," Jiang Ruan asked casually.
"Qin Jiangye is a blabbermouth," Qin Mo said. "If he knows, then Grandpa will know too."
Jiang Ruan thought for a moment and said, "That's true."
Qin Mo looked at her and said, "I hope you won't tell Lin Tan about this, at least not for the time being."
Jiang Ruan agreed: "Okay."
Qin Mo hummed in agreement and then returned to his office without saying anything more.
For the next hour or so.
Jiang Ruan was looking at the star-making plan that Qin Mo had given her.
I need to get to know Chi Qian better before we talk, otherwise I'll be completely blank-minded and mess things up.
About an hour and a half.
She read through the entire thick stack of plans.
Just as I was about to take a break to finish up my work, I heard a knock on the door.
"Knock knock".
"Hello, Director Jiang, these flowers are for you from our boss."
"This is afternoon tea that the BOSS is treating you to."
"This is a unique piece of jewelry that the BOSS is gifting you."
One after another, they came from outside.
Not long after.
Her office was piled high with stuff again.
She wanted to stop them from seeing her off, but each of them quickly dropped her off and left without giving her a chance to speak.
A ding-dong sound rang out.
Her phone screen lit up.
He picked it up casually and saw a message from Huo Zhizhou: "Did you like the food? Was the afternoon tea good? I ordered it especially to your liking."
Jiang Ruan: "..."
Jiang Ruan did not reply.
Replying will only embolden him further.
But she underestimated Huo Zhizhou's perseverance. Seeing that she didn't reply, he continued to send messages: "[The things you asked Mo Mo to send to my place have been moved to your house. Where would you like to put them?]"
Jiang Ruan: "?"
Jiang Ruan subconsciously opened the manor's surveillance camera, and sure enough, piles of gift boxes were being moved into the manor.
At the same time.
In the manor.
As Li Zhishen watched one exquisitely packaged gift box after another being carried inside, a hint of surprise crossed his face as he asked, "Who bought these?"
Bodyguard: "Mr. Huo bought it for the boss."
Li Zhishen: "?"
Without a second thought, Li Zhishen said, "Throw it out. And don't let any of that kid's things be brought in again."
"If I remember correctly, Chairman Li should be a guest here." Huo Zhizhou's voice rang out, his tone unhurried yet carrying a hint of pressure. "Isn't it inappropriate for a guest to refuse a gift on behalf of the host?"
Li Zhishen met his gaze: "It's indeed inappropriate to refuse other people's gifts, but it's perfectly appropriate to refuse yours."
Huo Zhizhou: "Are you in such a hurry because you're afraid Mom will kick you out if she sees you?"
Li Zhishen: "?"
Why chase him away?
He didn't say anything he shouldn't have to her today.
"After all, you've come so many times but it seems you've never brought Mom a gift." Huo Zhizhou's tone was calm, but his eyes were deep and unfathomable.
Li Zhishen: "Who said I never gave them?"
Huo Zhizhou: "What did you send?"
Li Zhishen: "Do I need to report to a junior like you?"
Huo Zhizhou: "Junior?"
“I’m Ruan Ruan’s dad,” Li Zhishen said deliberately. “According to seniority, I’m your father-in-law.”
"Is that so, Mom?" Huo Zhizhou suddenly looked behind him, his attitude respectful and his tone gentle.
Li Zhishen: "!"
Li Zhishen tensed up instinctively.
Looking back, I saw Jiang An walking towards me.
Remembering how he almost got kicked out last time he said those things, Li Zhishen quickly changed the subject: "How can you call someone 'Mom'? You and Ruanruan are divorced. You should call her Aunt Jiang like other people your age."
After saying that, she looked at Jiang An and said, "Right, An'an?"
Jiang Anli ignored him completely.
She couldn't be bothered with their childish behavior.
Her gaze fell on the gifts that were still being moved inside, and she casually asked, "What's going on with all these things?"
"This is a gift that Sui Sui bought for Ruan Ruan," Huo Zhizhou said with a straight face, "It just arrived today."
Jiang An looked up at him.
He didn't say anything.
“Sui Sui?” Li Zhishen began to expose him, his gaze sweeping over the top luxury and unique items. “If I’m not mistaken, the cheapest of those items were seven or eight figures. Where did a little kid like him get the money to buy so many?”
Huo Zhizhou: "I gave it to you."
Li Zhishen was about to speak.
Huo Zhizhou then blurted out, spouting nonsense with a straight face: "I give him eight figures in pocket money every day. Hasn't Chairman Li ever given Ruan Ruan any?"
Li Zhishen: "..."
If you have a knife.
He absolutely has to chop that brat down.
He's both boastful and deceitful; no wonder Ruan Ruan wanted to break up with him.
