Chapter 221 The Birthday Gift from Huo Zhizhou
A hint of surprise flashed in Jiang Ruan's eyes.
I never expected him to say that.
Her biggest worry has always been the psychological impact of divorce on Sui Sui, but she can't bear to live with Huo Zhizhou in silence, so she basically agrees to Sui Sui's requests.
He wants to see Huo Zhizhou, and she won't stop him.
She wouldn't stop him from going back to Jingzhou during his vacation.
She would agree to any of these things as long as he grew up healthy and happy.
"He probably won't come," Jiang Ruan replied, remembering that Huo Zhizhou was still in the hospital.
Sui Sui nodded knowingly.
That very evening, he sent a message to Huo Zhizhou using his smartwatch: "Uncle Huo truly lives up to his name."
Huo Zhizhou: "?"
Huo Zhizhou sent a voice message: "Miss me?"
Sui Sui stubbornly insisted, "I'm busy finding a new dad, I don't have time to think about it."
Huo Zhizhou's teasing tone slowly rang out: "It seems your love for your mother is nothing special."
Her little face was slightly wrinkled at the age of 12.
What's the meaning?
"Do you know there's a crime called bigamy?" Huo Zhizhou's voice was deep and pleasant, his tone as gentle as ever. "Your mother hasn't divorced me yet. Are you sure finding her a partner at this time isn't harming her?"
Sui Sui is a little proud: "Who says a new dad has to marry a mommy?"
Huo Zhizhou raised the corner of his eye slightly.
Sui Sui thought about his behavior and deliberately said something to annoy him: "As long as Mommy doesn't get a marriage certificate with them, it's not illegal for her to date ten men. I call all ten of Mommy's boyfriends 'Dad'."
Huo Zhizhou: "..."
Sui Sui continued sending voice messages: "You should be familiar with this, after all, that Aunt Su stayed by your side in this way."
“It’s not like what you think about us.” Huo Zhizhou didn’t want his child to misunderstand and let it affect his values. “She has been kind to me, and I’m just repaying her kindness.”
After sending the message, Sui Sui never replied.
Regardless of his relationship with that Aunt Su, it's a fact that he had a conflict with his mother because of this, and it's also a fact that his mother was unhappy about this.
Summarize.
He cheated on his mother.
Huo Zhizhou waited for half an hour without receiving a message, so he sent a message to test the waters: "Asleep?"
I haven't returned year after year.
Even the messages are unread.
"Make arrangements. We'll go to Ruanruan's place tomorrow afternoon," Huo Zhizhou instructed Jiang, his assistant, who was standing beside him. "When you change the dressing in the morning, have them wrap it with several layers of gauze."
Assistant Jiang paused for a moment, then quickly replied, "Okay."
The original plan was to leave the hospital tomorrow night and celebrate Ms. Jiang's birthday with her outside her villa.
Changing the time now, the boss probably wants to go in and keep him company.
but……
Can the BOSS get in?
The answer to this question was obtained the following day.
Jiang Ruan received Su Zhu's message and came out to pick her up. Just as she was pulling her inside, Huo Zhizhou got out of another car. Unlike his usual shirts and suits, he was wearing a loose casual outfit today.
Jiang Ruan frowned slightly.
Isn't he in the hospital?
"Happy birthday." Huo Zhizhou got out of the car and met her gaze. His voice was deep and pleasant. "Would it be convenient for you to come in and sit for a while?"
Jiang Ruan instinctively wanted to refuse.
But she noticed Jiang Yu next to him, whose eyes were full of worry. It had only been six days since the accident, and Huo Zhizhou's wounds could not have healed.
"You should be in a hospital," she said, her refusal more tactful. "Not here."
"Can't we go in?" Huo Zhizhou asked.
Jiang Ruan suppressed her emotions: "No."
Huo Zhizhou glanced at Jiang Yu and said, "Give her the gift."
Jiang Yu turned around and took out a stack of property ownership certificates from the car. After confirming that nothing was missing, he walked up to Jiang Ruan and handed them to her: "Ms. Jiang, this is a birthday gift from the BOSS to you, including but not limited to an island, a winery, and sixteen limited edition sports cars, supercars, and sedans."
Su Zhu: "?"
Jiang Ruan: "?"
"All the gifts have been expedited and transferred to your name, and are now confirmed as your personal property," Jiang Yu said, explaining the rest.
Jiang Ruan was about to refuse: "No..."
Su Zhu accepted it for her.
After a quick glance confirming that everything was real and not fake, she looked around and asked, "Where's the car?"
“They are being expedited from various locations,” Assistant Jiang replied earnestly. “Once the renovations of these two villas next door are completed, the car will be parked inside. Both the houses and the car belong to Miss Jiang personally.”
“Even if you divorce the BOSS, he can’t take the money away,” Assistant Jiang added.
Huo Zhizhou glanced at him with a slightly cool gaze.
Is it really necessary to say that?
Assistant Jiang: "..."
Isn't this because we're afraid Miss Jiang won't accept it?
Su Zhu carefully examined all the property certificates and purchase details. The total value of all of them was already in the billions, especially the winery, which had an excellent location and top-notch vineyard size and quality.
He wouldn't spend a single penny on the divorce before, but now he's giving me so many birthday gifts.
What exactly is Huo Zhizhou thinking?
"Take it." Su Zhu placed it in Jiang Ruan's hand. "This is what you deserve. It will also save you from property division in the future divorce."
All of these items went through several procedures and processes to ensure that they belonged to Ruan Ruan's personal property in the divorce. Although she didn't know why Huo Zhizhou did this, there was no reason not to accept them since they had been given to her.
Jiang Ruan lowered her eyes and looked at the thick stack of real estate ownership certificates in her hand.
"We won't bother you any longer now that the gift has been delivered." Huo Zhizhou's lips were slightly pale as he glanced at Assistant Jiang. "Let's go."
Assistant Jiang: "?"
Where to?!
Huo Zhizhou's eyes were dark.
Assistant Jiang quickly said, "Ms. Jiang, we'll be here until 10:30 tonight. When we cut the birthday cake tonight, could you please bring over a piece to try, since the boss gave us a gift?"
"Not going back to the hospital?" Jiang Ruan glanced at Huo Zhizhou's chest.
"No……"
Jiang Yucai uttered a single word.
Huo Zhizhou glanced at him, his gaze extremely imposing.
Jiang swallowed hard.
Huo Zhizhou turned his gaze back to Jiang Ruan and lied without changing his expression: "If we're going back, we'll just go take a look over there and then come back."
“The boss was lying to you. He planned to stay until after 10 PM… before leaving.” Jiang Yu, having been kicked, boldly moved aside and continued, “Because…”
"Jiang Yu!" Huo Zhizhou's voice carried a warning, tinged with coldness.
Jiang Yu didn't follow the instructions: "Because you were born at 10:30 pm on the 26th, he wanted to wait until that time."
These words were spoken.
Jiang Ruanluo's gaze shifted slightly as she looked at Huo Zhizhou.
Huo Zhizhou was surrounded by a low-pressure atmosphere.
He wanted Jiang Ruan to let him in, but there was no tenderness or concern in her reasons for letting him in. He hoped that she was only inviting him because she was satisfied with what he had done and the gift he had given.
"Don't worry, the boss spoke with the doctor," Jiang Yu added to reassure Jiang Ruan. "The doctor said that as long as you don't do anything strenuous, there won't be any problems."
"Come in." Jiang Ruan didn't want him to make a fuss.
Jiang Yu's tense heart relaxed slightly.
Huo Zhizhou looked up and met her gaze.
Jiang Ruan knew he didn't like other people's sympathy and pity, so she added, "Sui Sui asked you yesterday if you were coming. Since you're here, go in and chat with him."
