Chapter 235 Above His Life

“Su Zhu.” Jiang Ruan looked at her.

Su Zhu was gentle and patient with her: "Go ahead."

Jiang Ruan pursed her lips and voiced her most direct thought: "I want to find Su Anran and see if she found Huo Zhizhou because of that scar."

“Okay.” Su Zhu respected all her decisions. “I’ll go with you.”

She knew what Jiang Ruan was thinking.

She would rather Huo Zhizhou's savior be Su Anran or someone else than herself; the cruel twist of fate was more unbearable than the truth itself.

Jiang Ruan couldn't sleep all night that night.

Her mind was filled with everything between her and Huo Zhizhou—the sweet moments, the arguments, the joys, the frustrations…

She remembered all his expressions, movements, eyes, and voice at the time. She remembered how he loved her and the hurtful things he said in a fit of pique.

It was a little past six in the morning.

She picked up her phone and opened Su Anran's phone number.

After a moment's hesitation, she sent Su Anran a text message: "I know who that person is now. The deal is off."

Su Anran didn't see the message until after eight o'clock. She wasn't flustered at all, just thinking that Jiang Ruan was bluffing her. She called Jiang Ruan, her tone still nonchalant: "Then tell me who that person is."

If she really knew, she wouldn't have said that.

She would only hysterically ask her why she had replaced her.

"It's me." Jiang Ruan answered the phone briefly and calmly in her study.

Su Anran paused.

There was no sound coming from her end for a long time.

Jiang Ruan didn't give her a chance to argue and asked directly, "I myself didn't know that the person back then was Huo Zhizhou, how did you know?"

There was a moment of silence on the other end, then the call ended without a word.

At this moment, Su Anran was filled with panic and unease.

how so?

How did Jiang Ruan find out?

Jiang Ruan, who had initially had some doubts about the matter, was now completely certain because of Su Anran's reaction.

She was Huo Zhizhou's savior.

"Ruan Ruan." Jiang An knocked on the study door, went in, and saw that Ruan Ruan didn't look well. She asked with concern, "Why do you look so haggard? Did you work overtime last night?"

"Mom." Jiang Ruan's mood was neither good nor bad.

Jiang An walked towards her: "What's wrong?"

After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Ruan said, "I probably don't need Aunt Bai's help with my lawsuit anymore."

"Have you talked it over with Huo Zhizhou?" Jiang An asked, cutting off Jiang Ruan's answer before getting to the point, "Even if you have, I still suggest going through a divorce by litigation. A month-long cooling-off period is too long. What if he changes his mind again like before?"

"No." Jiang Ruan was very certain this time.

He values ​​commitment.

He placed this importance above his life, his freedom, and everything else.

Jiang An noticed her change in mood: "You guys..."

“I recently learned some things that I can use against him to force him to divorce me,” Jiang Ruan said, changing her tune and not telling him the whole truth. “He won’t have a chance to refuse.”

Jiang An stared at her for a long time.

After confirming that she wasn't just putting on a brave face or being forced into it, he stopped interfering: "Okay."

"I'll find some time to treat Aunt Bai to a meal later," Jiang Ruan suggested. "She's been so busy helping me for so long, I should thank her."

“I can handle this, you go ahead with your work.” Jiang An and Attorney Bai were good friends, and even though they hadn’t seen each other much over the years, their friendship remained. “I still hope you will reconsider before withdrawing the case.”

Jiang Ruan nodded: "Mm."

Jiang An rubbed her head: "Tell Mom what's wrong, don't keep it to yourself."

Jiang Ruan: "Okay."

Jiang Ruan and Su Zhu spent the rest of the morning together. Around 10 a.m., Su Zhu asked her, "When do you plan to bring up divorce with Huo Zhizhou? Gu Shixi has already entered the ward, and he will know in half an hour at most."

Fearing that last night's decision was impulsive, Ye Yanzhi deliberately waited until this morning to allow it to proceed.

Jiang Ruan said, "Tomorrow."

"What if he doesn't leave?" Su Zhu was equally worried about this issue.

"He will." Jiang Ruan's answer remained the same.

Before, she might not have been so sure, but after experiencing so much, she was absolutely certain, with no room for uncertainty.

Seeing her like this, Su Zhu didn't say anything more, but just prayed that Gu Shixi would find out the truth as soon as possible and tell Huo Zhizhou.

Gu Shixi learned everything around 11 a.m.

He didn't tell Huo Zhizhou directly, but contacted Si Ning instead: "There's something I need to tell you."

"Go ahead and say it." Si Ning clearly hadn't slept soundly.

"Su Anran is not Huo Er's savior; she's an imposter." Gu Shixi's mind was about to explode; he never expected that after investigating for so long, this would be the result.

Si Ning wasn't surprised at all: "Isn't this normal?"

Gu Shixi: "?"

Si Ning said casually, "I warned you both before, but you didn't take it seriously."

"Should we tell Huo Er?" Gu Shixi hesitated, her feelings extremely complicated. "He doesn't know yet."

Si Ning turned on her computer; the incident had no effect on her: "Why not say something and let him see how stupid he was to lose his wife for a fake benefactor?"

"But we still don't know whose identity Su Anran is impersonating." This was Gu Shixi's concern. "What if they really come after we expose her?"

"That's his problem to worry about, it's none of your business." Si Ning opened the game, looking relaxed and carefree. "If this incident isn't enough to teach him a lesson, then you shouldn't interfere with him anymore."

"Si Ning." Gu Shixi felt that she was being too rational.

"That's all for now, the game has started." Si Ning hung up the phone without hesitation.

Gu Shixi: "..."

Gu Shixi felt that the news he had received was a hot potato.

After much deliberation, he went to see Ye Yanzhi. His men didn't stop him, presumably because Ye Yanzhi had given his permission. If he did, did that mean Ye Yanzhi knew more information than he did?

Ye Yanzhi wasn't surprised at all to see him come; instead, he blurted out, "What do you want with your father?"

Gu Shixi, unusually, didn't hold a grudge against him.

I sat on his sofa watching him pack things into his suitcase.

Are you going out?

"Nonsense." Ye Yanzhi's every word was barbed. "I have to be there to see such a big scandal."

Gu Shixi looked puzzled: "What melon?"

Ye Yanzhi looked at him with particular disdain: "Your Huo Er is targeting his real savior because of a fake savior. Didn't Dr. Yin tell you about this, just after you came out of the hospital?"

"A true savior?" Gu Shixi grasped the key phrase.

Ye Yanzhi closed the suitcase.

Decisive and efficient.

"I'm going out, I'm leaving." He pulled his suitcase with one hand and held his phone with the other.

"Explain yourself clearly." Gu Shixi had no idea that Su Anran's scar was modeled after Jiang Ruan's. "What do you mean, 'targeting the real savior for the sake of a fake savior'? Do you even know who her real savior is?"

"You don't know?" Ye Yanzhi was taken aback.

Gu Shixi was even more puzzled.

Is this common knowledge? How would he know?

Seeing that he didn't seem to be faking it, Ye Yanzhi casually blurted out, "Su Anran is impersonating Xiao Jiangjiang. Huo Zhizhou's real savior is Xiao Jiangjiang."
