Chapter 171 Huo Gou is really not human.

“Since you’ve already decided that I am, you won’t believe anything I say,” Huo Zhizhou replied naturally. “My answer would also seem unnecessary.”

"Whether I believe it or not is my business." Sui Sui wanted an answer. "Whether you tell me or not is your attitude."

Huo Zhizhou: "I've given all my attention to your mommy."

Sui Sui: "..."

Sui Sui didn't want to say a single word to him anymore.

While he was asking Huo Zhizhou these questions, Su Zhu was also asking Jiang Ruan, "What's going on between you and Huo Zhizhou? Why is he still holding your hand?"

Most importantly.

Her best friend didn't manage to shake her off.

"He refused to divorce me," Jiang Ruan said, feeling the wind blowing out the window.

"Isn't this something that happened before?" Su Zhu seemed to remember what had happened before and asked as if she had just remembered something, "You two talked about this topic again in Haicheng?"

Jiang Ruan's heart stirred with emotion: "Mmm."

Su Zhu asked, "What did you talk about?"

Jiang Ruan opened her mouth, but when she saw her step on the gas and drive forward, she swallowed back the words she was about to say: "We'll talk when we get to your house."

"You don't trust my skills!" Su Zhu understood the underlying meaning of her words perfectly.

"It's not that I don't believe in your skills, it's just that the level of absurdity this matter is beyond anything you've ever seen before." Jiang Ruan leaned back in her chair, her emotions quite mixed. "If you heard this, you'd probably be cursing while stepping on the gas."

Su Zhu: "?"

Could there be someone even more outrageous than Huo Zhizhou keeping on the side?

Jiang Ruan: "I value my life."

Su Zhu scolded her twice: "Go away!"

More than half an hour later, we arrived at Su Zhu's house. As soon as she entered, she asked while changing her shoes, "Now you can tell me, let me hear how amazing it is."

Jiang Ruan said so.

In matters like this, she never adhered to the principle that matters between husband and wife should not be known to others.

She needs a clear-headed person to help her analyze the situation and alleviate her suppressed emotions.

Su Zhu is the only choice.

Three minutes.

After Jiang Ruan finished recounting what happened last night, Su Zhu was filled with questions, as if she never expected such a thing to happen: "Your prediction was really accurate. The things you said to me in the car made me 100% irritable."

Jiang Ruan leaned back on the sofa, her head resting on the sofa.

"Huo is a real scoundrel!" Su Zhu never held back when it came to cursing Huo Zhizhou. "He's capable of doing something like this."

"That's not what I'm concerned about right now." After what Dr. Zhou said, Jiang Ruan was 90% certain that Huo Zhizhou hadn't just watched Sui Sui fall into danger, but he didn't know how he had made her think that was the case.

Su Zhu: "?"

Su Zhu was somewhat puzzled: "You don't care about this?"

“Given Huo Zhizhou’s personality, he would rather hurt himself than hurt Sui Sui,” Jiang Ruan told her her guess. “He might be doing this on purpose to show me.”

"So what?" Su Zhu had a clear perspective on the issue. "Whether it's true or not, you're worried about Sui Sui, and you've already signed that agreement."

Jiang Ruan nodded: "That's true."

Su Zhu was a little worried about her situation: "What do you plan to do next?"

Given Huo Zhizhou's personality, he would definitely keep her confined to the Soft Garden. Even if she could socialize normally, there would still be an emotional distance between them, not to mention that Su Anran would occasionally pop up and cause trouble.

"I have an idea, but I have to wait for Mom to wake up before I can decide whether to carry it out." Jiang Ruan had too many concerns in her mind.

"If you ask me, you should take his card and hire some of his younger brothers to chat, talk, and drink with you." Su Zhu was still angry and wanted to annoy him. "Then buy some things for those younger brothers and make him furious."

If it were her, she would definitely do that; if anyone made her unhappy, she would retaliate in the same way.

She wouldn't stand for that kind of injustice.

but……

Looking at Jiang Ruan's expression, he knew in his heart that she wasn't that kind of person.

She has always had a set of standards for these things, and those standards do not allow her to do this.

“What you said seems to make some sense,” Jiang Ruan said.

Su Zhu: "?"

Su Zhu looked at her with an expression as if she had seen a ghost.

"Just having a heart-to-heart talk and drinking isn't illegal." Jiang Ruan was seriously considering the matter. "Do you know which bars have good-looking staff who are good conversationalists?"

Su Zhu's forehead was covered in question marks: "Are you serious?"

Jiang Ruan nodded: "Mm."

Huo Zhizhou kept her by his side simply because he hadn't grown tired of her yet.

He has never liked having too much contact with other men. Once, he chatted with a stranger at a banquet and when he got home, he kissed and hugged him, saying he was jealous. If he chatted with a group of people, he would probably be very angry.

Su Zhu reached out and touched her forehead, then carefully examined her expression.

I'm not sick, and I wasn't just saying that out of anger.

"No?" Jiang Ruan asked.

"Yes, I do." Su Zhu was well aware of her hobbies, so much so that she rarely invited her when she went out to have fun. "Didn't you always dislike these things?"

"That was before, I like you now." Jiang Ruan wanted to completely break up with Huo Zhizhou, only then would he let go.

I used to think she dumped him.

Now, as long as they can leave, it doesn't matter whether he gives up after he gets tired of her or she gives up.

That evening.

Jiang Ruan went to the bar that Su Zhu had mentioned.

To avoid implicating her, she went alone.

Looking at the row of young and energetic younger men sitting in front of her, she felt no emotional fluctuation. She still held up the card in her hand and said, "Whoever speaks well tonight, I'll give them the bottles of liquor they're supposed to sell this month."

After those words were spoken, they began to speak one after another.

Everyone spoke gently and pleasantly, and the way they looked at Jiang Ruan was as if they were looking at someone they deeply loved.

Jiang Ruan doesn't like this.

It's overly exaggerated and unrealistic; it's not true at all.

But in order to perform well, she bought all the tasks for more than a dozen people this month, maintaining a forced smile and happiness on her face.

"Swipe it." Jiang Ruan handed Huo Zhizhou's card over.

The moment the money was paid out.

Huo Zhizhou received a text message indicating that money had been deducted from his account.

Several in a row.

He clicked on it and saw that it was from a bar. He then called Lin Bei, who had been sent to secretly protect Jiang Ruan: "What is Ruan Ruan doing?"

Lin Bei: "You probably don't want to know."

Huo Zhizhou's expression remained unchanged: "Speak."

Lin Bei took a picture.

In the photo, Jiang Ruan is sitting opposite a row of good-looking young people, each of them raising their glasses in thanks with smiles on their faces, their eyes filled with undisguised joy.

"Your wife is drinking and chatting with a group of people younger than you." Lin Bei sent the photos over the phone, explaining the situation as he went. "Those guys are really good with words; they've made your wife very happy."

Huo Zhizhou: "..."

Lin Bei, unafraid of death, continued: "I think your position is in grave danger."

Huo Zhizhou looked at Jiang Ruan holding a wine glass in the photo and asked with a slightly darker expression, "How many glasses did she drink?"

"I didn't finish a single glass." Lin Bei remembered it clearly. "I only took a sip each time, and I never noticed how little wine was left in the glass."

Huo Zhizhou stood up, grabbed a car key, and walked out, instructing him, "Keep an eye on her. If she gets drunk, bring her out immediately. I'll be there right away."
