Before she could even steady herself, Bai Ruanruan pounced on her from nowhere.
"Waaaaah, Sister Su..."
Bai Ruanruan had become a little crybaby, her round little face covered in tears, and her eyes were as red as a little rabbit's. Seeing her like this, Su Yaoyao patted her back with heartache.
"Alright, alright, stop crying, Ruan Ruan."
Bai Ruanruan lifted her round head from Su Yaoyao's shoulder.
"Sister Su, I don't like Nanjiangmu anymore."
Su Yaoyao stared at her with a complicated expression; "Ruan Ruan, tell me honestly, do you really like Dr. Nan? You don't care about his age and past? Is it the kind of liking a woman has for a man, not the kind of liking she has for an elder?"
Bai Ruanruan's face froze when she heard Su Yaoyao's words. For a moment, she forgot to cry. After a while, she seemed to come to her senses and looked at Su Yaoyao and spoke.
"Sister Su, I'm very sure of what kind of love I have, but I've made up my mind that I won't love him anymore!"
Su Yaoyao heard the firmness in Bai Ruanruan's words and was surprised. She really hadn't thought that Bai Ruanruan would actually fall in love with Nan Jiangmu.
Bai Ruanruan said she would no longer like Nan Jiangmu, which made Su Yaoyao quite happy. However, on the other hand, she always felt that Nan Jiangmu was not the kind of person who would act recklessly. Perhaps there was some hidden reason behind this.
Thinking of this, Su Yaoyao spoke first to comfort her.
"Ruan Ruan, the security guard mentioned it when I came here. I don't think Nan Jiangmu is that kind of person. Why don't you wait until he comes back this afternoon and listen to his explanation?"
Upon hearing that Su Yaoyao had heard about it, Bai Ruanruan disregarded her own reservations and spoke up directly.
"Sister Su, I wanted to go to his room yesterday, and not only did he stop me, he also cursed at me!"
Su Yaoyao was surprised; "He insulted you?"
Bai Ruanruan nodded pitifully: "Yes, he got angry and embarrassed, so he cursed at me!"
Su Yaoyao didn't know what to say at that moment, so she could only comfort Bai Ruanruan.
...
Huo Xiting had just finished processing the documents in his hand when Wen Qing pushed open the door and came in.
"Mr. Huo."
Huo Xiting put down his pen and looked up at him.
"So, has the investigation been completed?"
Wen Qing lowered his head, his face solemn and his gaze complex; "Yu Chiyan is right, Qiao Si was indeed mistaken for Zhang Wei by Yu Qing..."
As Wenqing spoke, he raised his hand and made a throat-slitting motion on his neck.
Upon hearing this, Huo Xiting straightened up and leaned back in his chair, his expression icy cold.
Qiao Si was Yu Qing's capable subordinate. After failing to assassinate Yu Chiyan, they all assumed that Qiao Si had been killed. However, when he was in the hospital that day, Wen Qing called to tell him that Qiao Si's body had appeared in his territory. What was even more shocking was that he was wearing a thin human skin mask on his face, which belonged to Zhang Wei.
This means someone wants to kill Zhang Wei!
But Huo Xiting simply refused to believe that it was Yu Qing who wanted to harm Zhang Wei.
This implies that there are other hidden details behind the massacre in his family ten years ago, as Yu Chiyan said.
When he investigated the massacre of the Huo family, he used Yu Qing's people. Yu Qing hated the Yu family, so it's hard to guarantee that he wouldn't have someone carrying false information to give him more help. Otherwise, why would he target Zhang Wei, the only other person besides him who was connected to the Huo family?
This is completely abnormal!
Wen Qing lowered his head, his face dark and unreadable, and his voice was very low; "President Huo, what should we do now?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Xiting opened his eyes, which gleamed with a cold, sharp light.
"If Yu Chiyan can really help me find out what happened back then, I..."
When Huo Xiting said this, his face was full of restraint, the veins on the back of his hands were faintly bulging, and his tone was heavy, as if he had made a huge decision.
“If that’s the case, I’m not against cooperating with him, but Yu Chiyan must guarantee that he can completely remove me from this matter.”
Wen Qing nodded; "Since you want to cooperate, Yu Chiyan will definitely show sincerity, but in that case, your relationship with Miss Su will probably be..."
Wen Qing didn't say the rest, but Huo Xiting knew what he was worried about.
"You can go down now."
Huo Xiting waved wearily at Wen.
"yes."
After Wen Qing left as instructed, Huo Xiting got up, went to the office safe, skillfully entered the password, and took out a document from inside.
This is the contract he signed with Su Yaoyao. The terms were all drafted by Yu Qing and can be described as overbearing. Unless he goes back on his word, no one can take Su Yaoyao away from him.
For some unknown reason, Huo Xiting's expression turned blank...
...
Su Yaoyao and Bai Ruanruan chatted for most of the day, and just as Su Yaoyao's emotions stabilized, Nan Jiangmu returned.
The man stood at the door and knocked. Su Yaoyao peeked through the peephole and saw a locksmith standing next to Nan Jiangmu.
She turned to look at the girl on the sofa; "Even if you don't open the door, he'll still come in, so why not let him in?"
To avoid having to replace a lock.
Bai Ruanruan nodded with a cold face, but a hint of inexplicable expectation could be seen in her eyes.
Su Yaoyao smiled wryly, and after receiving consent, she turned around and opened the door.
Upon seeing Su Yaoyao, a hint of surprise flashed in Nan Jiangmu's eyes; "How come it's you?"
Su Yaoyao nodded and stepped aside to let Nan Jiangmu in.
“I saw Ruan Ruan’s message this morning, and I was worried about her, so I came to check on her.”
"I see," Nan Jiangmu nodded. "Thank you for your help."
Su Yaoyao's eyes darkened, then she shook her head; "You don't need to thank me. Ruan Ruan and I are friends. What you need to do now is explain to Ruan Ruan."
Nan Jiangmu glanced at the little head on the sofa, then turned around and gave the locksmith several hundred yuan in cash, telling him he could go home.
The master left with a happy expression, and only then did Nan Jiangmu lift his foot and walk towards Bai Ruanruan.
Bai Ruanruan turned her head away, looking as if she didn't want to open her eyes to look at him.
Nan Jiangmu was speechless. A whole day and night had passed, and this little girl was really temperamental.
He stood in front of Bai Ruanruan, looking down at her.
“Little girl, if you don’t want to see your brother or listen to his explanation, then I’m leaving and I won’t come back.”
Upon hearing this, Su Yaoyao immediately frowned.
As expected, Bai Ruanruan's eyes welled up with tears again upon hearing this.
Bai Ruanruan immediately turned her head and glared angrily at Nan Jiangmu; "You bastard!"
When Nan Jiangmu saw that she was looking at him, a smile appeared on his face, and then his gaze fell on Su Yaoyao.
Before he could say anything, Su Yaoyao spoke first.
"You guys chat, I'll go out for a bit."
