Chapter 31 You're letting Sui Sui live here?

Dr. Zhou was a little unsure of what he meant by the question, so he carefully considered his words and told the truth: "It's quite serious. If the wound were in another place, it would require several stitches."

Huo Zhizhou looked over with eyes as deep as an ancient well.

Dr. Zhou outwardly maintained a calm demeanor, but inwardly he was panicking.

"Do a good job with the surgery." Huo Zhizhou said nothing, stood up and glanced at the medical tools beside him. "I don't want today's incident to happen again."

"Understood." Dr. Zhou immediately put away the medical tools.

As soon as Huo Zhizhou left the hospital, he called his special assistant: "What is she doing?"

"Looking for a place to live," Assistant Jiang replied.

Huo Zhizhou's eyes darkened slightly as he spoke a few words to the other party.

Assistant Jiang immediately complied.

Jiang Ruan had no idea that her every move was being monitored by Huo Zhizhou's men. After raising enough money for the surgery, she started looking for a house. Fortunately, her efforts paid off, and she found a reasonably priced house with good security not far from Sui Sui's school.

After confirming that there were no problems with the house, I signed a contract with the landlord, paying a deposit of one month's rent and three months' rent in advance.

After spending half a day cleaning the room and moving all her belongings over, she finally messaged Huo Zhizhou: "[Fengyue Huating, Building 1, Unit 1802, bring Sui Sui's things over.]"

There was no reply from the other end, and Jiang Ruan didn't say anything more.

Around four o'clock in the afternoon, there was a knock on the door. When I opened the door, I saw Huo Zhizhou standing outside in a smart suit.

He glanced around the room, which was less than 100 square meters, and after a few looks, he strode into it. The living room, which was originally quite spacious, suddenly felt cramped because of his presence.

"You're just letting Sui Sui live here?" Huo Zhizhou turned his gaze back to her. "His walk-in closet is bigger than the whole house."

"I asked you to bring the things over, not to point fingers at my place," Jiang Ruan said.

She knew this place was much smaller than the house Sui Sui used to live in, but she would work hard to earn money, give him a better life, and make his life better and better.

"Put Sui Sui's things in this room." Jiang Ruan opened the door to one of the rooms, then opened the door to another room, "Put the sleeping pillow here."

Huo Zhizhou glanced at it.

These two rooms are the largest rooms in this floor plan. Besides these, there is only a small study room of just over ten square meters.

Which small room does she live in?

Jiang Ruan didn't notice his gaze. She was putting away the things the bodyguards had brought for Sui Sui one by one. One of the three rooms was to be Sui Sui's dressing room, another was to be Sui Sui's bedroom, and the last one was to be used to store her personal belongings and also as her bedroom.

Huo Zhizhou walked a few steps outside and stopped when he saw the clean and tidy kitchen.

Jiang Ruan can't cook.

He was very clear about this point.

"You can leave now." Jiang Ruan finished tidying up and came out to see him standing in the living room, so she gave him the order to leave.

"To ensure Sui Sui can live to adulthood safely, I will have someone take care of his three meals a day." Huo Zhizhou spoke ruthlessly, "Please, Ms. Jiang, don't feed him any random things on your own."

Before Jiang Ruan could speak, he left with his men.

Jiang Ruan slammed the door shut, not taking his words to heart.

Huo Zhizhou knew everything about her, but he didn't know that she could actually cook, and that she cooked quite well.

When she first married him, she excitedly cooked him a meal, but she accidentally cut her hand. It was a one in ten thousand chance, but she still managed to do it. As a result, he never let her into the kitchen after that. In his mind, she was someone who couldn't cook.

But none of that matters.

For her now, making money is the most important thing.

Seeing that she hadn't received a reply to the resumes she submitted, and knowing that Huo Zhizhou was deliberately trying to stop her, she had no choice but to focus her work on part-time jobs. That afternoon, she scheduled a one-on-one dance teaching interview.

Although she has been a full-time housewife at home all these years of marriage, she has never given up dancing and painting, which she has loved since childhood.

She met the person at the agreed location, which was a well-known wealthy area in Jingzhou. The residents there hired tutors for their children on a one-on-one basis, so she wasn't worried that the person who had arranged to meet her was Huo Zhizhou again.

but.

Although the person who invited her wasn't Huo Zhizhou, he was similar to him.

Led by the maid, she stepped into the villa. When she saw the gentle and refined man playing with a four- or five-year-old child in the garden, her mind went blank for a moment: "Big Brother?"

What's Huo Sinian doing here?

"You're here, please come in." Huo Sinian greeted her gently with a smile on his handsome face.

Jiang Ruan's composure faltered slightly, and she nodded stiffly.

Huo Sinian handed the child to the maid, got up and went inside with her. Today he was wearing a light gray suit and silver-rimmed glasses, giving him a refined and gentle appearance.

But the ginger is soft and clear.

The gentler a person appears on the surface, the more ruthless they are behind the scenes.

"Sit down." Huo Sinian came to the sofa in the living room and asked briefly after she sat down, "What would you like to drink? How about juice? I remember you like to drink freshly squeezed juice at home."

Jiang Ruan tensed up a bit: "Anything is fine."

Huo Sinian immediately ordered people to make preparations.

A brief silence fell over the room.

Jiang Ruan held her breath and took the initiative to start a conversation to ease the tense atmosphere: "Does your child need a dance teacher?"

“It’s not mine, it’s Lu Er’s child.” Huo Sinian gave off a gentle and warm feeling. “He had to go out for something and asked me to help him vet the dance teachers who came for the interview.”

"I see." Jiang Ruan nodded.

She said that her older brother wasn't married, so where would he have a child?

Huo Sinian's gaze fell on her hands, which she was fidgeting with insecurity, and he said half-jokingly, "You look very nervous."

Jiang Ruan gave an awkward smile.

She wasn't nervous.

It was simply fear.

"With your professional skills, you're more than capable of being this child's dance teacher. I'll talk to Lu Er about it later." Huo Sinian's voice was gentle and soft, and very kind. "Don't worry too much."

Jiang Ruan's heart was still pounding with nervousness, and she said, "Then thank you in advance, brother."

“I’ve heard about what happened between you and Zhizhou,” Huo Sinian said, bringing it up. “He went too far this time. If there’s anything I can help you with, just let me know.”

"Okay, thank you, brother." Jiang Ruan spoke passively the whole time.

Huo Sinian reached into his pocket and took out a card, holding it out to her with his long, slender fingers: "Take this card. There's not much in it, but it can temporarily relieve your immediate crisis."

"No need," Jiang Ruan refused without even thinking.

Taking Huo Zhizhou's money might at most result in him humiliating you, but taking Huo Sinian's things could have unpredictable consequences.

She didn't dare to gamble.

They dared not take any risks.
