Chapter 287 Huo Zhizhou said, I miss you so much
Huo Zhizhou's face darkened, and just as he was about to reprimand Assistant Jiang, the door to the ward suddenly opened, and Jiang Ruan, dressed casually, walked in.
Huo Zhizhou looked in the direction of the sound, and his pupils widened in shock when his gaze fell on the person at the door.
Soft and soft...
She seems to have lost weight.
He also exudes a more mature and composed air about him than before.
What did she go through during this time?
"Miss Jiang, you've arrived." Assistant Jiang greeted her immediately, asking with concern, "Have you had breakfast?"
Jiang Ruan: "I ate it."
Assistant Jiang: "The boss hasn't had breakfast yet, what do you think..."
Jiang Ruan looked up and met Huo Zhizhou's burning gaze.
Their eyes met.
One is distant and indifferent like the crescent moon in the sky, the other is passionate and gentle like the rising sun.
Seeing this, Assistant Jiang went out and gently closed the ward door.
Huo Zhizhou pursed his thin lips, his voice slightly hoarse from sleeping for so long, his eyes fixed on her, unwilling to look away even for a moment: "You came yesterday, didn't you?"
What he felt in the darkness was not an illusion.
It's her.
"Hmm." Jiang Ruan restrained herself, glancing at the breakfast items with a distinctly distant look. "Eat your breakfast first, we can talk about anything else after you've finished eating."
Huo Zhizhou ate it.
Throughout the process, his gaze almost never left her.
She meant not letting him into her sight, but now it's her entering her life, so it's not a breach of contract.
"Ruan Ruan," Huo Zhizhou couldn't help but call her, his voice tender and affectionate.
Jiang Ruan looked up at him as if she were looking at an insignificant person.
But Huo Zhizhou didn't care. As long as she was by his side and he could still see her, he would gladly endure even if she stabbed him until his scalp bled.
"How have you been these past few days?" Huo Zhizhou asked directly, expressing his thoughts and feelings. "Are you managing to deal with the Qin family?"
Jiang Ruan's answer was very official: "It's okay, I can."
Huo Zhizhou: "Just say so if you need help."
Jiang Ruan: "Let's eat first."
Huo Zhizhou: "Okay."
Ten minutes later.
Huo Zhizhou finished his breakfast.
Jiang Ruan opened the door and called Assistant Jiang. Seeing that everyone had finished breakfast, Assistant Jiang felt a little relieved. Before leaving, he whispered to Jiang Ruan, "The BOSS will feel nauseous about half an hour after eating. If this happens, please let me know."
"Every day?" Jiang Ruan rarely asked.
“Most of them are,” Assistant Jiang said.
Jiang Ruan said "okay".
For the next half hour, she kept an eye on Huo Zhizhou's condition and found that everything was fine.
Looking at Jiang Ruan, who had barely spoken a few words to him since arriving, Huo Zhizhou hesitated for a long time before finally asking the question that was rather inappropriate to ask: "Did Jiang Yugu Shixi send you here?"
Jiang Ruan: "No."
A flicker of emotion crossed Huo Zhizhou's eyes.
Did she come by herself?
"Huo Sinian sent me here." Jiang Ruan cruelly told him the truth, "I made a deal with him before, and I'm here to fulfill the agreement."
Huo Zhizhou's eyes darkened slightly.
I still don't like him; he won't even lie to me.
However, since the person had already arrived, he didn't intend to push them away.
I miss you so much.
"I don't miss you," Jiang Ruan said directly.
"I've already filed a lawsuit against Su Anran." Huo Zhizhou reported the result to her, his voice hoarse but steady. "Given her act of impersonating you to gain benefits, the Huo Group's legal team can sentence her to many years in prison."
Jiang Ruan replied calmly, "Mm."
Huo Zhizhou asked, "If you have anything to add, you can say so, and I will do it."
Jiang Ruan had no interest in this: "It's fine as it is."
Seeing her so distant from him, Huo Zhizhou felt terrible. She used to be very clingy to him and liked him a lot.
Jiang Ruan met his gaze directly without flinching and asked bluntly, "Assistant Jiang and Gu Shixi said you've had a terrible month, not eating or sleeping well."
"Yes." Huo Zhizhou didn't hide anything.
"Why?" Jiang Ruan asked.
"Because I miss you, but I can't see you." Huo Zhizhou told the truth, his deep eyes filled with complex emotions. "The mental pressure from this contradiction is increasing, which is affecting the functioning of my body."
Jiang Ruan hadn't expected him to be so direct.
In the past, he would keep things from her, partly because he didn't want her to worry, and partly because he only wanted her to love him and didn't want her to worry about other things.
This is the first time I've ever expressed my thoughts so frankly.
"But don't worry, I'll try my best to adjust," Huo Zhizhou said calmly, "I won't let myself get into trouble."
Jiang Ruan glanced at him a few times: "Is this the result of your adjustments?"
Huo Zhizhou: "..."
Meanwhile, outside the door.
Jiang's assistant and Gu Shixi were eavesdropping.
"I thought Huo Er would ruthlessly say he was fine after waking up and then send Jiang Ruan away." Gu Shixi came so early so that he could deal with this in case it happened. "I didn't expect him to say nothing this time."
Given his normal personality, he wouldn't accept Jiang Ruan coming to see him because of Huo Sinian's words. Not just Huo Sinian, but more accurately, he wouldn't accept anyone other than himself.
Jiang Ruan came to see him only because she missed him, loved him, and still had him in her heart.
“That might have been the case in the past.” Assistant Jiang had seen more and understood more recently, “but it’s impossible now.”
Gu Shixi asked curiously, "Why?"
Assistant Jiang saw things very clearly: "Because the BOSS knows that Miss Jiang doesn't have feelings for him. If he continues to be as stubborn as before, he will never be able to say another word to Miss Jiang in his life."
I used to live in Ruanyuan, and I could feel a little better because Miss Jiang had stayed there.
Every place holds memories of him and Miss Jiang.
But since moving away from Ruanyuan, there has been no trace of Ms. Jiang's life in the new residence. The BOSS can only live on longing and memories, to the point that even falling asleep has become difficult, and he can only resort to medication in the end.
"We'll come over after they've finished talking." Gu Shixi was relieved. "It's not a good time to go in and disturb them."
“Yes.” Assistant Jiang shared the same thought.
The two of them straightened up and turned around.
As soon as he turned around, he bumped into Mo Mo behind him.
His suspicious gaze fell on them, as if wondering why the special assistant to the president of the Huo Group and the president of the Gu Group would be eavesdropping outside.
“You didn’t see anything just now.” Gu Shixi took out a wad of cash from his pocket and handed it over. “We weren’t here either.”
Mo Mo glanced at it.
There were about ten or so red suns.
They offered such a high price on their first offer; they must be very concerned about people finding out.
Yes, the price is negotiable.
“I saw it.”
Gu Shixi: "!"
Assistant Jiang: "..."
Gu Shixi gritted his teeth: "Can't you just pretend you didn't see it?"
Mo Mo's gaze fell on the cash in his hand, and her words were blunt: "This little bit of money is not enough to cause me temporary blindness."
Gu Shixi's eyes were full of question marks.
Does this mean a price increase?
"It's enough to make you not see what just happened."
Mo Mo: "Five times."
Gu Shixi: "Okay, give me the card number."
Mo Mo gave it to her.
Gu Shixi transferred the money decisively and without hesitation.
After seeing that he had received it, he also reminded Mo Mo, "I've given you the money, so I hope you'll keep your word."
"What happened just now..." Assistant Jiang hesitated, his mind momentarily blanking because the two of them had been so serious. "Even if Miss Jiang and the BOSS find out, it doesn't seem like a big deal."
