Chapter 91 Jiang An has so much savings

"It counts," Huo Zhizhou replied, "provided it's not illegal."

Su Anran had no intention of playing the innocent victim in front of him, knowing that no matter what happened, he could see right through her: "I want more shares in the Su Group than Su Zhu."

Huo Zhizhou looked up.

The atmosphere in the ward suddenly became heavy.

at the same time.

Jiang Ruan's side.

After Sui Sui fell asleep, she continued drawing, and watching the numbers in her bank account increase little by little made her feel much more at ease.

Around 1 a.m., Jiang Ruan’s phone rang. It was a group chat she had created with Su Zhu and Ye Yanzhi called “When 0 or 1, it’s not appropriate (3)”.

Su Zhu: "I heard Su Anran was hospitalized yesterday, is that true?"

Su Zhu: "No, it should be the day before yesterday. It's early morning now."

Ye Yanzhi: "I know that, really."

Following this message, Ye Yanzhi sent a voice message that lasted more than ten seconds, detailing how Su Anran got into a car accident and how Huo Zhizhou didn't abandon Sui Sui and Jiang Ruan.

Su Zhu: "Serves you right!"

Su Zhu: "She can't keep causing trouble in the remaining few days."

Su Zhu: "Your cooling-off period ends on the 12th of this month, and you're getting your divorce certificate on the 13th, right @Jiang Ruan?"

This was the message Jiang Ruan saw when she opened her phone. She glanced at her calendar and typed: "[It seems so.]"

It has been about twenty days since they filed for divorce. She had been worried that she would not be able to adapt to life without him. Now it seems that although she is still a little unaccustomed to it, she has mostly gotten used to it.

She can take good care of herself and Sui Sui.

We can afford my mother's medical expenses.

You don't have to do with him.

Su Zhu: "Oh right, I almost forgot to tell you, I saw your dad when I went to the bar to meet someone yesterday. He asked you to come see him on Wednesday, saying that he has something important to talk to you about, and that it is related to your mother."

Jiang Ruan remained silent for a while.

Su Zhu's voice message came again: "I figured he might not have been holding back his words, so I didn't tell you right away."

Jiang Ruan replied via text: 【Ignore him.】

Her dad might actually know something about her mom, but after being fooled once, she wouldn't fall for it a second time. Who knows if he asked her to come to him just to make her drink with him, or something even more disgusting.

Moreover, Aunt Xu's words last time made her even more convinced that her mother was deliberately hiding some things from her.

Su Zhu: Why are you still awake so late?

Jiang Ruan: [I'm a beast of burden now.]

Su Zhu: "..."

Su Zhu asked, "If Auntie had allowed you to learn company management from me back then, you wouldn't be working like a beast of burden."

Jiang Ruan propped her head up and fell into deep thought.

The Jiang Group was founded with the help of her father. Many important decisions were made by her, but since she could remember, her mother had never managed the company and did not allow her to learn those things.

Later, when the Jiang Group went bankrupt, she did not offer any assistance.

There wasn't even the slightest emotional fluctuation.

"I guess they think I won't starve and don't want me to experience the cutthroat world of business." After what the mysterious man and Aunt Xu said, it would be a lie to say she wasn't curious.

But she can't give her an answer right now.

The group chatted for a few more minutes, but Jiang Ruan stopped talking for the time being, citing that she had to work overtime.

Su Zhu and Ye Yanzhi both wanted her to work at their company, but they knew she couldn't agree, so they just told her to talk to them if she had anything to say.

Before we knew it, it was the next day.

After the housekeeper picked up Sui Sui to go to school, the company car arrived, and the entire department was taken to the team building location.

At first, the car was relatively quiet, but as time went by, everyone's early morning energy returned, and scattered conversations could be heard inside the car.

“Jiang Ruan.” Liang Qi, who was sitting next to her in the aisle, suddenly leaned over.

Jiang Ruan glanced at her sideways.

Liang Qi looked around and whispered, "I heard from Secretary Su that you used to come from a very well-off family?"

Jiang Ruan denied it without even thinking: "No."

"And she also said that your family went bankrupt before?" Liang Qi asked this question with a hint of probing.

“Everyone understands bankruptcy differently,” Jiang Ruan replied in a different way. “Most families have probably experienced times when they emptied their savings for something, and our family is no exception.”

Hearing this, Liang Qi knew that Jiang Ruan didn't want to say more about this matter.

But the less she said, the more curious she became.

So much so that I gossiped about it with a few other colleagues in the department in a small group chat.

Jiang Ruan was completely unaware of this and didn't care. All she wanted to know was the purpose of this team building activity, what its significance was, and whether she had to participate or could make her own arrangements.

She got the answer to this question after arriving at the villa.

—Free to arrange.

There are many things to do inside the villa, such as billiards, mahjong, karaoke, swimming, werewolf games, and a swimming pool.

Jiang Ruan had no desire for any of these things; exhausted and weary, all she wanted to do was go to her assigned room and sleep.

"Aren't you going to play?" Bai Jian called out to her.

"Not really." Jiang Ruan changed her excuse, then added, knowing it wouldn't be good to not participate at all, "Go have fun, I'll get you guys something to eat when it's almost time."

Bai Jian didn't call her out: "Okay."

Jiang Ruan breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Just as she was about to go upstairs, her cell phone rang. It was Aunt Xu calling.

She walked outside and answered the phone in the garden outside the villa: "Aunt Xu."

"Why do you sound so weak?" Xu Jiu spoke casually, blurting out a joke, "Did you two keep up all night again?"

Jiang Ruan: "..."

Xu Jiu sighed, "It's so good to be young, I'm so envious."

Jiang Ruan: "You're overthinking it."

"You know in your heart whether I'm thinking too much or not." Xu Jiu said meaningfully, knowing that she was shy, he didn't keep talking. "Do you want to come see me? I'm at the airport now, but I have to leave again tonight."

"I'm afraid that won't work." Jiang Ruan's head throbbed at the thought of the rule against taking leave. "The company is having a team-building event, so I can't take leave."

Xu Jiu: "???"

Xu Jiu had a string of question marks on his forehead.

Did she mishear?

Or did she mishear?

"Company? Leave of absence?" How could these two words be related to her Ruan Ruan?

Jiang Ruan told her about what had happened recently, without mentioning Huo Zhizhou's predicament or her mother's surgery, only talking about the divorce and the need to work and earn money.

Like Su Zhu, Xu Jiu was very surprised.

But they are, after all, elders.

After a brief moment of surprise, she calmly accepted it: "Even if you're divorced, you don't need to go to work, right?"

“There are many places where money is needed.” Jiang Ruan spoke to her in a manner similar to that of someone her age. “If I don’t earn money, how will I pay for my mother’s medical expenses and my daily living expenses? I can’t just starve to death.”

“Jiang An has so much savings, why not just take her money?” Xu Jiu blurted out.

Jiang Ruan: "?"

Jiang Ruan was a little confused: "Didn't I tell you that the company went bankrupt and my dad ran off with all the money?"
