Chapter 75 Huo Zhizhou is sick!

"I'm a little curious about how he felt after he found out I rejected him." As Lu Er said this, he opened his phone and sent a message to Huo Zhizhou.

Huo Sinian's light-colored lips curved slightly: "There's a high probability that there's no emotional fluctuation."

Lu Er: "?"

Lu Er: "How could that be?"

It turns out that Huo Sinian was the one who truly understood Huo Zhizhou.

Huo Zhizhou left Yuanyi before noon and returned to Huo's Group. There was an important meeting there that he needed to chair. When he received the message, the meeting had already ended, and he was discussing business with Gu Shixi in the spacious and bright president's office.

Gu Shixi glanced at his lit-up phone: "Why don't you check the messages first?"

Huo Zhizhou's expression remained unchanged: "It was issued by Lu Erfa."

Gu Shixi: "What did you send?"

"He rejected my proposal." Huo Zhizhou only glanced at it out of the corner of his eye before taking in the whole story. "He doesn't mind Jiang Ruan."

“He is, after all, Huo Sinian’s man. If he really listens to you and fires Jiang Ruan, wouldn’t that be tantamount to betraying his own brother?” Gu Shixi understood this clearly and explained the key point to him.

Huo Zhizhou was still reviewing the details of his project: "I know."

"Then why did you go to see him?" Gu Shixi was a little puzzled.

Knowing the outcome will be unsatisfactory, yet still going, is not his style.

"Let's test how important Qiao Anran really is to him," Huo Zhizhou said calmly, "so that we have a plan in place if anything unexpected happens later."

"But he refused," Gu Shixi kindly reminded him.

Huo Zhizhou met his dark eyes: "Do you know why I never listen to your advice on relationships?"

Gu Shixi said seriously, "You think everything I said is wrong."

"In your opinion, does Lu Er care about Qiao Anran?" Huo Zhizhou asked casually, yet his expression conveyed a deep seriousness.

“I don’t really care.” Gu Shixi answered based on what he had seen. “If he really cared, he wouldn’t have fought with her for Xin Xin in the first place, and he wouldn’t have kept her away for so many years.”

Lu Er's affairs caused quite a stir.

He, who is far away overseas, knows everything perfectly well.

"That's why I don't listen to your relationship advice," Huo Zhizhou answered the question. "You simply don't understand."

Gu Shixi: "???"

Gu Shixi looked surprised.

“If he really didn’t care about Qiao Anran, he wouldn’t have reacted so strongly when I mentioned her, and he wouldn’t have hesitated for so long to answer such a simple question.” Huo Zhizhou’s thin lips parted slightly.

Gu Shixi wanted to refute, but found that he couldn't find a way to refute it: "What if you guessed wrong?"

Huo Zhizhou said, "In the past few days, Huo Sinian has used his resources to investigate Qiao Anran."

Gu Shixi: "So?"

Huo Zhizhou held back the words he was about to say, and his gaze towards him changed several times.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Gu Shixi pressed for an answer.

“With Lu Er’s abilities, he can find out a lot of things.” Huo Zhizhou didn’t want to pay attention to him, but after thinking about it, he still gave an answer since he had such a living brother. “Huo Sinian’s involvement is like me helping you find things.”

Gu Shixi understood.

But I didn't fully understand it.

He knew that Huo Sinian's involvement meant the matter was quite important, but... if it was important, why didn't he take the initiative to pursue her? If he cared, shouldn't he want to gain her forgiveness and do more to make amends?

"Is there anything else?" Huo Zhizhou asked as he finished his immediate tasks.

Gu Shixi: "No."

He thought Lu Er was sick.

My own brother is also sick.

Because they are sick, he cannot understand their behavior and actions.

That's right, that's exactly it!

With these mixed and strange feelings, he left the Huo Group, his heart stirred with turmoil.

Before that guy's accident, Huo Er was mentally healthy despite his difficult life. But ever since that guy's accident and departure, Huo Er has become a completely different person.

He thought Jiang Ruan's appearance would change him. After all, during their marriage, he started to act like a normal person, and his pampering and care for Jiang Ruan was beyond what ordinary people could match. He was simply a perfect husband.

But now it seems...

It's clearly much more serious now.

For the rest of the afternoon, Huo Zhizhou handled most of the important matters of the Huo Group, leaving the remaining minor issues to Assistant Jiang.

“BOSS.” Assistant Jiang came to his office before he left work.

Huo Zhizhou: "What's up?"

"Old Master Huo was a bit angry after hearing that you held an anniversary celebration for Yuan Yi." Although Assistant Jiang said this, his tone was no different from a normal work report. "He asked you to call him back."

Huo Zhizhou replied indifferently with two words: "No time."

Assistant Jiang continued, "Mr. Huo said that if you don't return the call, they will go to Ms. Jiang."

Huo Zhizhou raised his eyes slightly, and his originally calm gaze instantly turned into a cold pool, with danger slowly creeping in: "Tell them that if they want to live a peaceful life, they shouldn't be courting death. I've always been a cold-blooded person."

“They’re in the conference room,” Assistant Jiang said, forcing himself to speak.

Huo Zhizhou glanced at him.

Assistant Jiang couldn't stand the oppressive atmosphere emanating from him.

Presumably it was his parents' idea, he didn't blame Assistant Jiang for not focusing on the key points, and before going to the meeting room, he threw him a sentence: "You are my assistant, you don't need to care about what other people say, including them."

Assistant Jiang responded, "Yes."

Huo Zhizhou went to the conference room. When he entered, his parents were sitting on the sofa inside. One was furious, and the other was trying to persuade him with a complicated expression.

Hearing the door open, the two looked up at the same time, their eyes meeting Huo Zhizhou's.

"Zhizhou," Huo's mother called to him.

"Were you involved in the anniversary celebration of Yuanyi Games?" Mr. Huo also spoke up, forcibly suppressing his anger after sensing the imposing aura emanating from Huo Zhizhou.

Huo Zhizhou glanced at them.

Just as the two thought he was going to explain something, Huo Zhizhou instructed the people outside, "Please ask them to leave."

"Yes." The four guards appeared in a neat row.

Seeing this.

Mr. Huo's suppressed anger was about to burst out, but he only dared to vent it a little: "What are you doing? Don't forget I'm your father."

“If you didn’t have this status, the order just now would have been to drag you out and throw you into the street.” Huo Zhizhou stood at the door, his figure tall and slender, “instead of inviting you.”

Mr. Huo: "You!"

A flicker of sadness crossed Huo's mother's eyes: "Can't you just talk to your parents properly for a while?"

After that phone call, they thought their child was willing to be close to them again.

But now...

It's the same as before.

"Don't touch Jiang Ruan." Huo Zhizhou warned her this seriously for the first time. "If anything happens to her because of you, I will make you pay for everything you've done before."

“You yourself have made things difficult for her.” Although Mr. Huo wasn’t in the industry, he knew some things. “Look at what you’ve been doing lately, it’s nothing like what the president of the Huo Group should be doing!”

Go work for someone else's company.

Help others prepare for their anniversary celebration.

He had never seen anyone do such a foolish thing!
