Chapter 192 Fate Has Its Own Design

Chapter 192 Fate Has Its Own Design

Su Zhu has been busy with company matters lately and only returned to Jingzhou last night from a business trip.

She learned about Jiang An's complete awakening through chatting, but she was too busy to visit him.

When she heard that Jiang Ruan needed to talk to her, she simply said, "You stay at the hospital and keep Aunt Jiang company. I don't have anything to do for the next few days, so I'll come to the hospital to see you later."

Jiang Ruan hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.

Su Zhu knew her well: "Is what you want to talk to me about not suitable to be discussed in the hospital?"

Jiang Ruan: "Mm."

Since my mother woke up, the surveillance cameras in the ward have been removed, but hospital staff come and go, and someone comes to the ward every day to inquire about my mother's condition.

If someone were to overhear this and it reached Huo Zhizhou's ears, that would be disastrous.

“There’s a coffee shop on the second floor across from the hospital,” Su Zhu quickly adjusted. “I’ll call you when I’m almost there, and we’ll meet there.”

Jiang Ruan said "okay".

Half an hour later, she received a call and went straight to the coffee shop the caller had mentioned.

From the moment she left the hospital, Huo Zhizhou, who was in the office upstairs, had Si Ning access the surrounding surveillance footage. After Su Zhu met up with her, he told Si Ning, "Use Su Zhu's phone to listen to their conversation."

Si Ning tapped her fingers on the laptop screen, her tone slightly teasing: "Jiang Ruan is, after all, my master's daughter. Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"

Huo Zhizhou: "I asked you to access Su Zhu's phone."

Si Ning countered, "Is there a difference?"

Huo Zhizhou: "I was listening to Su Zhu, not her."

Si Ning clicked her tongue and didn't engage in a debate with him. She would do these basic things for him. On the day her master and Jiang Ruanzhen were to leave, she would turn off her phone, get a good night's sleep, and leave everything to fate.

In order to avoid favoritism.

I'll find some time to reveal a little bit about what this guy is doing to my master.

"Alright." Si Ning took her hands off the keyboard and added a sarcastic remark, "If I were Jiang Ruan, I would remember you for the rest of my life."

Huo Zhizhou didn't even glance at her.

Su Zhu's voice came through the computer quickly. The two exchanged pleasantries about their recent situations and asked about Jiang An's condition. After discussing the basic issues, Su Zhu said, "You don't want to talk about this in the hospital. Are you afraid that Huo Zhizhou will find out?"

Jiang Ruan: "Mm."

Jiang Ruan: "I want to tell you..."

"Wait a minute," Su Zhu interrupted her in time.

There was no sound coming from the computer, but Huo Zhizhou could imagine Jiang Ruan looking bewildered and confused.

“My company is currently filming a movie that involves the two bosses having their conversations overheard by the other side,” Su Zhu said seriously. “Just to be on the safe side, we’ve both turned off our phones.”

Huo Zhizhou: "?"

Si Ning raised an eyebrow: "They know I'm a hacker?"

"I don't know." Huo Zhizhou's eyes deepened slightly. "I only told Ruan Ruan that you are very talented in computers and that you are the company's technical consultant."

Si Ning turned her gaze to the computer screen.

Huo Zhizhou asked, "Can we still eavesdrop even when the phone is off?"

Si Ning: What do you think?

She's turned off the computer and disconnected from the internet, so how can she reconnect? Unless she turned off the computer herself, but she has no interest in doing that.

Huo Zhizhou's eyes darkened slightly. After considering it carefully, he took out his phone and made a call.

Jiang Ruan had a string of question marks on her forehead: "Isn't this a bit of an exaggeration?"

"Better safe than sorry." Su Zhu had seen the sample footage and still felt like there were 'eyes' all around her. "Since we don't want Huo Zhizhou to know, we have to do it to the extreme."

Jiang Ruan: "..."

It's a bit of an exaggeration, but it makes sense.

Su Zhu turned off her phone.

Jiang Ruan also turned it off.

Si Ning's connection was severed.

Huo Zhizhou stared at the disconnected computer screen without speaking. A moment later, his phone screen lit up with a message from Jiang Yu: "[Arranged.]"

“You still have palnB?” Si Ning saw the message.

“Jiang An is your master.” Huo Zhizhou glanced at her, stood up and walked towards the French windows. “Think it over more, it’s better to be prepared.”

Si Ning didn't even bother to acknowledge him.

Jiang Ruan and the others' coffee was served.

Su Zhu stirred the mixture and said, "Speak, what is it?"

"I want to take Sui Sui and her mother away from Jingzhou," Jiang Ruan said, though she felt a little guilty towards her.

What follows.

Jiang Ruan was at a loss for words.

Su Zhu understood her: "But are you afraid that after you leave, we will be implicated because of you?"

Jiang Ruan: "Mm."

Su Zhu raised her hand and flicked her forehead.

Jiang Ruan looked at her blankly.

"Are you stupid?" Su Zhu didn't think it was a big deal at all. "Huo Zhizhou's real target is you. If you leave and don't come back, he can just cause trouble for a couple of days and that'll be fine."

They were completely unrelated to him, and Huo Zhizhou was the kind of person who never wasted time on people who were completely unrelated to him.

Less than half a month later.

He completely changed his approach.

"Of course, the premise is that you have to stay calm after hearing the news he deliberately spreads." Su Zhu continued to tell her, "If you waver even slightly, everything will be in vain."

Jiang Ruan looked at her.

Everyone was supporting her.

How could she possibly waver?

"Don't contact me during the days you're leaving. Just go quietly according to your plan." Su Zhu genuinely wanted what was best for her.

As soon as she left Jingzhou, Ruan Ruan took a step towards freedom.

Even if Huo Zhizhou finds out where I live later, it's not a big deal. Huo Zhizhou is the president of the Huo Group, and he can't just ignore the company and run around outside every day.

All she needs to do is successfully leave.

No one else knew about this conversation except the two of them.

Huo Zhizhou arranged for people to eavesdrop, but all attempts failed due to Su Zhu's caution.

It can only be said that fate has its own design. Su Zhu, who usually doesn't pay much attention to these things, became subconsciously wary of her surroundings after watching a sample of the new movie produced by her own entertainment company.

“Let’s go in and see Aunt Jiang.” Su Zhu picked up her bag and stood up. “I haven’t had a proper visit to her since she woke up.”

Jiang Ruan left with her.

As Su Zhu entered the inpatient department, she suddenly saw someone who looked exactly like Jiang Ruan standing against the wall on her right. She tugged at Jiang Ruan, but before she could say anything, Li Zhishen, who was a few meters away, waved to her first.

Su Zhu responded instinctively.

She paused for a moment.

Do she know him?

Why do you subconsciously respond to his greeting?

"Ruan Ruan," Su Zhu said to Jiang Ruan as they entered the elevator, "Do you remember that person I sent you a picture of last time, the one who looked a lot like you?"

Jiang Ruan's eyes showed a subtle change: "I remember."

“I just saw him,” Su Zhu told her. “He even waved to me.”

Jiang Ruan: "?"

Jiang Ruan looked puzzled.

The elevator doors opened the next second.

She stepped out, and just as she was about to ask where she saw it, another elevator opened, and Li Zhishen, dressed in a suit, walked out. Upon seeing her, the seriousness and composure on his face instantly softened.

Then she said to Su Zhu next to her, "Thank you."

Su Zhu: "?"

Su Zhu was completely baffled.

What are you thanking me for?

Li Zhishen didn't say much, but came up to Jiang Ruan and looked at her: "I have something I want to say to your mother. Is it convenient for me to come in?"

Sneaking in is one thing.

Seeking the opinion of the person suspected to be her "daughter" is another matter.

We can't leave her with the impression that "Dad" is impolite and difficult to get along with.

"It's inconvenient." Jiang Ruan refused without hesitation, not wanting to argue with him any further. "Mom said she doesn't want to see you. Please leave."
