Chapter 164 Deceiving Jiang Ruan

Chapter 164 Deceiving Jiang Ruan

"I'm just letting you stay by my side without getting a divorce; I'm not restricting your freedom," Huo Zhizhou patiently explained to her.

Jiang Ruan didn't speak again.

Preventing her from getting a divorce and forcing her to accept that he will support Su Anran is no different from restricting her freedom.

"This is being returned to its rightful owner." Huo Zhizhou handed her the black gold card with unlimited spending from his pocket. "It has a new card design, and Su Anran hasn't touched this one."

In the past, she would have thought he was very considerate of details.

Now she is preoccupied with how Sui Sui is doing, wondering why this happened after submitting allergens.

Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, Jiang Ruan pushed him away and created some distance between them, her eyes full of vigilance like a small animal: "Sui Sui's allergy, did you have someone do it on purpose?"

A pre-prepared agreement.

They deliberately prevented the hospital from providing treatment for Sui Sui.

He left it until she came up to his door.

These events, one after another, made it hard for her to feel that this matter had nothing to do with him.

"No." Huo Zhizhou didn't waste any more words and gave the answer directly.

Jiang Ruan pressed again, "Really not?"

Huo Zhizhou: "No."

Jiang Ruan believed him for the time being; he had no reason to lie about this.

Seeing that her emotions were gradually stabilizing, Huo Zhizhou finally asked the question that most people would ask: "In your heart, am I the kind of person who would joke about life and death?"

"You didn't threaten him with his life just now?" Jiang Ruan retorted. Forgetting something you just did; big shots really do have good memories.

Huo Zhizhou pursed his thin lips, offering no defense for himself.

He was just as worried as she was whenever something happened to her.

But he didn't tell her this.

——

Two hours ago.

Jiang Ruan turned and left Huo Zhizhou's room without saying a word.

Just as he was about to call Assistant Jiang and ask him to speak to the people in the game department and tell them to assign fewer tasks to the people from Yuan Yi and teach them more practical knowledge, a call came into his cell phone.

Looking at the familiar number, he answered it.

"Mr. Huo, Sui Sui has a food allergy." The summer camp teacher said to him with a somewhat anxious tone, "The situation is a bit serious, you should..."

"Keep an eye on him, I'll send someone over immediately," Huo Zhizhou decided decisively.

He did not hold anyone accountable, nor did he say anything else.

He immediately called the medical team that was secretly following Sui Sui and asked them to carry out emergency treatment, afraid that saying anything more would delay Sui Sui's treatment.

Fortunately, they handled Sui Sui's situation optimally in less than a minute.

"Mr. Huo, the young master's condition is quite serious. Although it's under control for now, he still needs to be sent to the hospital to be fully treated," the medical team member reported, his voice heavy with concern.

"The car is ready outside, and someone will clear the way for you." Huo Zhizhou had made comprehensive preparations since learning about the incident. "Get him to the hospital as soon as possible. I have already informed the hospital director of the situation."

The medical team member: "Okay."

Once everything was ready, he told the teacher in charge again, "Don't tell Jiang Ruan about this for now. I'll contact you if anything happens."

"Okay," the teacher in charge replied.

For the next hour or so, Huo Zhizhou kept in touch with the medical team. Looking at Sui Sui's tightly furrowed and uncomfortable little face, his usually strong heart began to tighten with worry.

Fortunately, after treatment by the doctor, he was out of danger soon.

"How was it?" Huo Zhizhou watched the entire video.

The hospital director personally participated in the treatment: "She's fine now."

Huo Zhizhou frowned slightly: "Then why hasn't he woken up yet?"

"All vital signs are normal. It's most likely that he was too tired during the day and was sleepy," the attending physician replied. "Don't worry, the young master is safe and healthy now."

Huo Zhizhou's tense heart relaxed slightly: "That's good."

He was thinking of telling the teacher in charge not to mention this to Jiang Ruan, but then he remembered that Jiang Ruan was determined to divorce him and leave Jingzhou with Jiang An and Sui Sui.

That instant.

He had an idea.

"Later, use children's cosmetics to make his skin look like he just had an allergic reaction," Huo Zhizhou instructed the group. "Make his lips whiter and spray some water droplets on his forehead."

Everyone: ?

Although everyone was puzzled, they still did as instructed.

That explains everything Jiang Ruan just saw.

Thinking about all this, Huo Zhizhou's gaze fell on Jiang Ruan, and he answered her question: "I took it, but only this once."

Once she acknowledged that he had threatened Sui Sui's life, she knew he could be ruthless in this matter.

Only in this way will she not leave him without any scruples.

"You can quit Yuan Yi's job after you go back." Huo Zhizhou wanted her to have an easier life and didn't want her to work so hard all night. Besides, it wasn't worth the effort for that little bit of money.

But her job is Jiang Ruan's source of confidence.

Her anger flared up instantly: "Why should I?"

Huo Zhizhou: "?"

Huo Zhizhou was puzzled for the first time by what Jiang Ruan was angry about: "I've given you the card. You can use it as you please. Don't waste your time delaying your free days."

"Don't even think about it, I won't quit this job." Jiang Ruan took his agreement, her emotions running high. "There's no clause on it that explicitly states I can't work."

When they argued again, he looked down at her and said, "Everything you eat, use, and wear is paid for with my money," and she couldn't argue back.

She won't stumble twice in the same place.

That kind of humiliation is enough once.

"If you really like it, I won't force you to quit." Huo Zhizhou didn't know that his previous words, which he had deliberately made things difficult for her, were still remembered like a thorn in her side. "It's your freedom."

Jiang Ruan threw the agreement back at him.

Seeing his temper, Huo Zhizhou's heart gradually warmed up.

He still gets angry as before, the only difference is that she doesn't like him very much now.

"It's getting late, go to sleep," Huo Zhizhou said to her, completely forgetting that Sui Sui was still in the emergency room being treated, according to Jiang Ruan's information database.

Hearing his nonchalant remark, Jiang Ruan felt disappointed in him: "Do you even have a heart?"

Huo Zhizhou raised his eyes slightly: "What?"

"Sui Sui is still in the emergency room, and you're still in the mood to sleep?" Jiang Ruan was angrier than ever before, even more so than when she discovered his affair with Su Anran. "Are you even his father?"

Huo Zhizhou raised his hand and pinched the space between his eyebrows.

How could I have forgotten that lie?

"Hold on."

He stood up, took his phone, went to the floor-to-ceiling window, and called the dean: "Is it all resolved?"

"It's all taken care of," the dean said truthfully, looking at the clean-looking child.

"Call me in ten minutes and repeat what we said half an hour ago." Huo Zhizhou didn't want Jiang Ruan to continue misunderstanding and didn't want her to discover the truth. "Remember to wipe off the water droplets and other disguises from his face."

The dean agreed to each one: "Okay."

Huo Zhizhou hummed in agreement and hung up the phone.

Although Jiang Ruan was angry with him, she was very worried about Sui Sui's condition: "How is she?"

"We're out of danger now, and we're just finishing up." Huo Zhizhou's expression was normal; he was a very skilled liar. "There's no need to worry too much."

Jiang Ruan's tense heart relaxed a little.

Then they realized the problem.

“We’ve already told the summer camp teachers about Sui Sui’s allergies, so how could this still happen?” She thought about it again and again and still felt something was wrong. “Besides, Sui Sui isn’t greedy, and he absolutely won’t eat the things we’ve told him he can’t eat.”

"I've already sent someone to investigate." Huo Zhizhou's eyes darkened slightly.

Food allergy.

But as Ruan Ruan said, Sui Sui won't eat indiscriminately.

Unless someone does it intentionally.
