Li Ruo couldn't stand Jiang Luo saying such things, so she immediately stepped forward to interrupt, "Mom, please don't say that! You'll definitely live to be a hundred!"
Knowing that Li Ruo was acting out of filial piety, Jiang Luo did not refute her.
But she knew her own body well, so she took the opportunity to say to Wen Huaiyan, "Mr. Wen, I spoiled Ruoruo when she was little, so she is sometimes a bit impulsive and does some things rashly. I see that you are calm and don't like to hold grudges, which complements her. I hope that you can take good care of her in your work and life in the future. Thank you."
"no problem."
Wen Huaiyan naturally wouldn't refuse. He nodded first, then glanced at Li Ruo and suddenly said, "Auntie, I'm going on a business trip out of town in a few days. I see that Li Ruo is quite capable, so I'd like her to come with me to broaden her horizons. What do you think?"
He came here specifically for this matter.
“Great, she should focus on her career that she loves. Besides, I feel very reassured about her going on this business trip with you.”
As expected, Jiang Luo agreed without even thinking.
Upon hearing this, Li Ruo's face immediately darkened, and she frowned, saying, "Mom, I don't want to go on the business trip. I want to stay and take care of you."
As she spoke, she gave Wen Huaiyan a accusing look.
She wondered why this man had suddenly appeared at the hospital; it turned out he had this in mind!
Seeing her excited expression, Jiang Luo sighed helplessly: "Ruo Ruo, this is a rare opportunity, so you should go with President Wen. Don't worry about me, your brother is here with me."
"Can……"
Li Ruo was still a little worried, but before she could speak, Jiang Luochu's face darkened: "Listen to me, if you don't go, I'll just stop the treatment. I really can't bear to continue to be a burden to you!"
Seeing her face suddenly flush red from anger, Li Ruo was startled and quickly reassured her, "Okay, okay, I'll go!"
Jiang Luo's current physical condition is unstable, and she is very likely to faint if she gets excited.
"Please don't be angry, I will definitely do my job well."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Luochu finally smiled with satisfaction.
As Wen Huaiyan silently watched the interaction between the mother and daughter, his expression subtly changed.
He had also seen how Li Ruo interacted with the Li family. Although she tried her best to restrain herself, the disgust in her eyes was impossible to hide, and she was far less natural and relaxed than she was in front of Jiang Luo at this moment.
As he was deep in thought, the door to the ward suddenly opened, and Jiang Ze walked in.
But upon seeing Wen Huaiyan, his gaze darkened: "What are you doing here?"
Wen Huaiyan didn't have a good impression of Jiang Ze. Although Li Ruo had explained their relationship, he still immediately turned cold.
Seeing that the situation was a bit awkward, Li Ruo quickly stepped forward to smooth things over and explained, "Mr. Wen has come to see Mom."
"He came to see Mom?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Ze showed an incredulous expression.
He had been in the workplace for many years, but he had never seen a leader take the initiative to visit the elders of his subordinates.
Unless, of course, their relationship is quite unusual.
Recalling the man's hostile demeanor earlier, Jiang Ze frowned slightly and suddenly whispered to Li Ruo, "Ruo Ruo, Mom's test results are out. Come with me to get them."
"good."
Li Ruo was taken aback, but she didn't suspect anything and hurriedly followed behind him.
As soon as they left the ward, Jiang Ze pulled her to a corner and asked with a serious expression, "Do you have any special relationship with that Wen Huaiyan?"
Li Ruo's heart skipped a beat, and she blinked guiltily, asking, "Brother, why did you ask that?"
Jiang Ze snorted angrily: "If that weren't the case, why would the president of the Wen Group personally visit someone who has no relation to him?"
Wen Huaiyan's face was exceptionally striking; he recognized him the moment he saw him that day.
But during this time, due to various things, he had been holding back from asking Li Ruo.
But unexpectedly, due to a moment of carelessness, Wen Huaiyan actually entered the room!
"And that day at the hospital, when he saw you and me together, there was a clear murderous glint in his eyes. Was he jealous then?"
Seeing his confident demeanor, Li Ruo pursed her lips, unusually speechless.
After all, Jiang Ze's analysis was absolutely correct, but she couldn't really admit that the two of them had an improper relationship, could she?
After thinking for a long time, Li Ruo couldn't come up with a suitable excuse, so she could only laugh awkwardly and say, "Brother, you're overthinking it. He and I are nothing..."
However, to her surprise, Wen Huaiyan in the ward became somewhat impatient after not seeing the two of them return for a long time.
He stepped out the door and immediately saw that Jiang Ze was very close to Li Ruo.
What's even more infuriating is that this woman didn't seem to realize anything was wrong at all; she even had a smile on her face.
Seeing this, he snorted coldly, and without saying a word, he stepped forward and pulled Li Ruo into his arms. Then he turned to look at Jiang Ze and said in a low voice, "Ruo Ruo, didn't you say you were going out to eat with me? You actually left me alone in the ward?"
