Chapter 184 I Want You to Kiss and Hug Me

Jiang Ruan paused, and all the mysteries suddenly became clear.

Neither she nor Su Zhu were entirely right. Besides what Su Zhu said, Huo Zhizhou did this for a deeper reason: if she accepted it out of spite, he could then say those words as if it were perfectly justified.

He considered all possibilities.

Huo Ershao's plans are flawless.

That's absolutely right.

"What do you think?" Huo Zhizhou pinched the little bit of flesh on her waist.

Seeing this, the others wisely left.

I didn't stay here as a third wheel.

"Does it matter whether I tell or not?" Jiang Ruan's heart sank little by little, knowing that no matter what she did, she couldn't escape his calculations. "You've already planned everything out, why would you need to ask for my opinion?"

"You are my wife, and your opinion is very important." Huo Zhizhou was good at saying nice things.

Seeing his calm and collected expression as he looked at her, Jiang Ruan felt extremely uncomfortable.

He used to be genuinely kind to her, so she never felt uncomfortable around him. Now, everything he does and says is a setup for his next goal, and she only feels disgusted.

“If you really thought it was important, you wouldn’t want me to act according to your wishes.” Jiang Ruan saw through his pretense.

Huo Zhizhou leaned slightly closer to her: "Are you blaming me?"

Jiang Ruan didn't hide her thoughts: "I just hate it."

"I've been trying my best to be good to you ever since I came back from my business trip." Huo Zhizhou pulled her into a tight embrace. "If you feel there's anything I can do that's not good enough, you can tell me, and I'll try my best to do it."

Jiang Ruan didn't even have the thought of speaking.

Except for Su Anran's matter, except for the divorce, and except for the fact that their relationship cannot be made public.

What else can she say besides these things?

"Hmm?" Huo Zhizhou asked her.

"Just say it." Jiang Ruan was too lazy to play games with him anymore. "What do you want? How do you want me to do it? Be specific and don't bring up the past."

"I want you to kiss and hug me first, and for your eyes to be filled with happiness and joy when you look at me." Huo Zhizhou's voice murmured in her ear, deep and pleasant. "Let me go out with you this weekend..."

"Don't think about it." Jiang Ruan said before he could speak.

Huo Zhizhou was not angry.

Jiang Ruan looked at him and said, word by word, "What you're saying is nothing but daydreaming."

"It's a dream." Huo Zhizhou knew everything perfectly well. "That's why I came to you to make it come true."

Jiang Ruan raised her hand to push him off him.

Huo Zhizhou remained completely still.

"I'll give you plenty of time to adjust." Huo Zhizhou's grip on her was just right, not too tight, to prevent her from escaping. "But this time isn't for you to think about how to leave me."

Jiang Ruan did not expect him to expose this matter directly.

"If you still treat me the same way when the time comes, I will realize the dreams I just told you about in my own way." Huo Zhizhou spoke gently, but it was a veiled threat. "Understand?"

"Let me go first." Jiang Ruan did not answer his question.

Huo Zhizhou was released.

Jiang Ruan is stubborn: "All this talk, isn't it just to satisfy your own selfish desires!"

I will do everything I can to make it up to her.

It's all just to satisfy his desire to keep his wife at home while having affairs on the side.

So what if he doesn't love Su Anran? Taking money to support someone with no blood relation to him is essentially no different from those others.

"It's selfish desire." Huo Zhizhou frankly admitted that he and Jiang Ruan were on different wavelengths at this moment. "As long as I can keep you by my side, I can use any means necessary, even if it makes you hate me in the end."

"You're crazy!" Jiang Ruan cursed at him and turned to leave, unable to stay with him for even a second longer.

After leaving the attic, she took a car from the garage and went to find Su Zhu.

Ruanyuan is a place.

It was a cage for her.

Huo Zhizhou stood upstairs, watching her car drive further and further away through the floor-to-ceiling window, and called out slowly, "Jiang Yu."

Jiang's assistant appeared in a flash: "BOSS."

"After she meets up with Su Zhu, find someone to put on a show." Huo Zhizhou knew without guessing that she was going to see Su Zhu, "to let her know that breaking a promise will have consequences."

Jiang hesitated, then asked, "Aren't you afraid Miss Jiang will be angry?"

Huo Zhizhou countered, "Isn't she angry now?"

He has enough patience to coax her and treat her well, provided that she changes because of his kindness and doesn't simply distance herself from him.

If you've decided to come back, you should keep your word.

Assistant Jiang: "..."

Jiang's assistant didn't dare say more: "How much of an act?"

Huo Zhizhou: "Don't get really hurt if you're frightened."

Jiang, Special Assistant: "Okay."

Jiang Ruan was unaware that Huo Zhizhou was plotting all of this, and she urgently needed to find a way to relieve her emotions.

Su Zhu had just finished dealing with company matters when she was invited out, and was a little surprised to see that she had been asked to come to a bar: "You actually invited me to this place? What's going on?"

"What would you like to drink?" Jiang Ruan asked.

"Either is fine." Su Zhu sat down opposite her.

Jiang Ruan ordered some of the drinks she used to have, and Su Zhu was a little surprised to see that she only ordered hers: "What about you?"

Jiang Ruan: "Unsweetened lemon juice."

Su Zhu: "Is it here?"

Jiang Ruan: "If you pay enough, you'll get it."

Su Zhu: "???"

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

A moment later, the bartender came over with several glasses of unsweetened freshly squeezed lemonade and politely placed them in front of her: "Please enjoy."

"Why don't you just drink it?" Su Zhu's mouth was already watering uncontrollably from the pure sour smell of lemon juice. "This stuff is really not fit for human consumption."

"I get drunk easily, and I don't want to end up being carried back by Huo Zhizhou." Jiang Ruan knew very well that "the ultimate goal is to find a way to vent emotions, whether it's alcohol or lemonade."

Su Zhu asked, "What did that scumbag do to you?"

Jiang Ruan picked up one of the glasses and held it out to her: "Let's not talk about it, let's drink."

Su Zhu was frightened by the yellowish-green lemon juice, but still picked up her own glass of wine and clinked it against hers.

The crisp sound of glasses clinking together rang out.

Jiang Ruan took a sip in silence.

So sour!

Her whole face was scrunched up.

At that moment, she forgot her anger and rage; her mind was filled only with her most genuine feelings.

"There's no need to torture your teeth and stomach like this." Su Zhu's teeth ached from looking at her, and she was once again certain that her daughter was a tough person. "You'd be healthier drinking alcohol than doing this."

It takes several lemons to squeeze out a glass of pure lemon juice.

This guy probably drank a whole one in one gulp.

"Su Zhu." Jiang Ruan called out to her, wanting to talk to her about something.

"Speak," Su Zhu said simply.

Jiang Ruan pursed her light-colored lips.

"Clang!"

"Splash!"

A fight suddenly broke out at the table next to them, and one of the people almost hit Su Zhu with a bottle he was holding.

"Damn it!" Su Zhu quickly got up and pulled Jiang Ruan away, still feeling a bit shaken. "Luckily we dodged in time, otherwise that person's bottle would have hit me on the head."

Jiang Ruan checked her over and over, and was slightly relieved after confirming that she was not injured.

Just then.

Her phone vibrated twice.

It was a message from Huo Zhizhou: "This is just a reminder. I don't like it when you promise me something and then break it, understand, Ruanruan?"
