Chapter 72 Huo Zhizhou Needs to Make a Mistake

"I know," Huo Zhizhou said casually.

Gu Shixi couldn't understand it. For the first time, he felt that his brain couldn't keep up with his thoughts: "Knowing that you still let her fight with Jiang Ruan, aren't you afraid that Jiang Ruan will suffer a great loss at her hands?"

Huo Zhizhou remained silent.

Whether or not one suffers a great loss is a personal choice.

Gu Shixi was genuinely concerned for him: "Take my advice, don't try to keep Jiang Ruan by your side this way. She's so stubborn, she won't follow the path you imagine."

Huo Zhizhou looked up at him.

Gu Shixi straightened his back: "I'll say the same thing if you look at me."

Huo Zhizhou fiddled with the phone in his hand: "What makes you think you're right and I'm wrong?"

Gu Shixi: "?"

prove?

"You've never been in a relationship, nor have you had any long-term female friends." Huo Zhizhou has a knack for cutting to the heart. "I, on the other hand, spent at least five years with Jiang Ruan."

Gu Shixi suddenly got stuck.

He tried to persuade him with his own ideas, but then realized that there are a thousand different personalities in a thousand people. What he said just now was only from his perspective. What if Jiang Ruan really falls for Huo Zhizhou's ideas?

After all, compared to him, a stranger with whom she had only met a few times, Huo Zhizhou had spent five years with her and should understand her better.

“But…” After much consideration, he could only come up with one point: “No one likes being targeted by a love rival.”

Huo Zhizhou's gaze gradually focused.

Gu Shixi didn't interrupt.

After a while.

Huo Zhizhou seemed to have thought of something, and turned his gaze to ask him, "Are there any parties or banquets recently?"

"No." Gu Shixi found him a bit strange. "Why are you asking this?"

Huo Zhizhou rubbed the phone in his hand.

Gu Shixi asked again, "Didn't you always ignore these things?"

"Isn't next Wednesday the tenth anniversary of Yuanyi Games?" Huo Zhizhou thought to himself, pondering the information he had casually glanced at earlier.

Gu Shixi remembered these things quite clearly: "Yes."

Huo Zhizhou parted his thin lips slightly: "How about we get it done?"

Gu Shixi: "..."

Gu Shixi kindly reminded him, "Although they would love for you to become CEO, this is ultimately their own business. Besides, a tenth anniversary banquet like this could easily cost a fortune."

Huo Zhizhou didn't care about any of that.

Money is just a string of numbers to him; he can create as much as he wants.

He pulled out a number from his phone and dialed it, clearly settling the matter.

"President Huo." President Song treated him with exceptional respect.

Huo Zhizhou went straight to the point: "What are your plans for Yuan Yi's tenth anniversary?"

Mr. Song was taken aback at first, but then immediately realized what he meant: "I will do as you say."

Huo Zhizhou: "All company employees will attend next Wednesday."

President Song gritted his teeth and agreed: "Okay."

Although the banquet was a money-losing affair, Huo Zhizhou could generate even greater profits for them. Even if he no longer served as the CEO here in the future, his reputation for having visited Yuan Yi would still remain.

"I will have Assistant Jiang transfer the money to your company's account." Huo Zhizhou was impulsive, but he kept his personal and professional matters separate. "I will send the detailed plan to your email by Friday."

Before President Song could refuse, Huo Zhizhou had already hung up the phone.

Gu Shixi really couldn't understand why he did this: "Don't tell me this banquet is for Jiang Ruan."

"Yes," Huo Zhizhou replied.

Gu Shixi: "Why?"

"Her life revolves around three points: the company, the hospital, and home," Huo Zhizhou said slowly. "So regular that she sees no unnecessary people and nothing unnecessary happens."

Gu Shixi's lips twitched.

He suddenly had a bad feeling.

"So you want to create an opportunity for something to happen?" Gu Shixi said, revealing his true thoughts.

Huo Zhizhou didn't answer, but the expression on his face said it all.

Gu Shixi wanted to try to persuade him, saying that his behavior was too extreme and abnormal, but when she thought about his experiences and life from childhood, she realized that no matter what she said, he probably wouldn't listen.

He wanted Jiang Ruan to hit a brick wall, but that brick wall would most likely hit him instead.

After much deliberation, he decided not to try to persuade him anymore.

Huo Er needs to make one mistake.

He only becomes normal when he makes a mistake.

"What do you need me to help you with?" Gu Shixi suppressed his other thoughts and silently apologized to Jiang Ruan.

"Invite some people who previously dared not target Jiang Ruan because of my presence." Huo Zhizhou spoke calmly, without a trace of emotion. "If they don't come, just say that I invited them."

Generally, company annual meetings are only for company employees.

But it's perfectly normal to have a few friends in management.

Gu Shixi unconditionally stood by his side: "Okay."

"Thanks." Huo Zhizhou knew that he didn't approve of his actions, and he was only willing to help him because he considered him a friend.

"There's no need for thanks between brothers." Gu Shixi regained his usual casual indifference. "But I won't be attending this banquet. You should know your limits and not go too far."

Huo Zhizhou: "Mm."

After finishing their business, the two chatted about other things.

It wasn't until late at night that the two went home. Huo Zhizhou told Assistant Jiang about the incident, gave him some precautions, and then didn't say anything more.

It must be said that Assistant Jiang is really efficient; the matter was communicated throughout the company in no time.

Thursday morning.

Not long after Jiang Ruan and others arrived at the company, they received a message in the group chat, which said that they would not be working all day next Wednesday to participate in the company's 10th anniversary celebration, and each department would prepare a performance.

This news sparked heated discussions within the department.

"Although I'm happy to not have to work on Wednesday, based on the past annual meeting schedule, it usually doesn't end until after 10 p.m.

"Will President Huo be going? He's practically one of our company's employees now."

"Probably not. After all, he's from the Huo Group, so it would be a bit strange for him to attend Yuan Yi's celebration."

"Isn't the most important thing right now that each department needs to prepare a performance? Everyone in our department is tone-deaf, as stiff as a steel plate, and has absolutely no artistic talent. What are we going to do?"

"Why don't we ask Jiang Ruan?" someone suggested. "She should be able to handle it."

Apart from Jiang Ruan, most of the other people on this new project were transferred from the previous project, so they were all familiar with each other and naturally understood each other.

Jiang Ruan is still searching to see if next Wednesday is really the 10th anniversary celebration of Yuanyi.

The coincidences were too great, making it hard for her not to suspect that Huo Zhizhou might be involved.

"Jiang Ruan!" someone called her.

Jiang Ruan looked up from her phone and turned to look at the source of the sound: "What's wrong?"

"Do you have any special skills or talents, such as stand-up comedy, singing, dancing, playing musical instruments, or performing skits?" They asked directly, "We know nothing about these things."

Going to karaoke on a normal day is fine; whether you sing well or not is no big deal. But this is an anniversary celebration, and if you mess it up, you'll lose face in front of thousands of people.

Jiang Ruang was about to say that she wasn't very good at speaking.

She's just a new employee at the company, so it's not a good fit.

result--

"If I could do just one of these things, the 20,000 yuan prize every year would be mine!"

"Keep bragging. Even if you knew it, you wouldn't be able to get first place."

"With your abilities, getting first place is a sure thing, but you just can't do it, right?"

"There's a prize?" Jiang Ruan suddenly asked. She had read the entire message, but it didn't mention any prize money.
