Chapter 316 Huo Zhizhou said Jiang Ruan likes him

"You wouldn't dare," Huo Zhizhou said before he could speak, "because you value profit above all else."

"Don't interfere in my affairs with Lin Tan anymore." Huo Sinian didn't say much, but once again instructed, "Consider this as repayment for interfering in Jiang Ruan's affairs before. From now on, we will not interfere with each other."

Huo Zhizhou parted his thin lips slightly: "Is this the first day you've met me?"

Huo Sinian's brows furrowed slightly: "What do you want?"

Huo Zhizhou didn't answer him and hung up the phone directly.

After listening to the whole process, Jiang, the assistant standing to the side, tentatively asked after confirming that the call had ended, "Boss, is there anything I need to prepare in advance?"

"No need," Huo Zhizhou replied.

"What about Young Master Huo..." Jiang Yu wasn't quite sure.

The boss and Huo Sinian have clashed many times, but it has always been behind the scenes, never out in the open like this.

"Just keep an eye on the Qin family's situation." Huo Zhizhou's eyes were deep and unfathomable. "You don't need to worry about Huo Sinian."

Perhaps one day Huo Sinian will also act impulsively for love.

But that day is not now, nor is it in the near future.

Nothing in this world can make Huo Sinian give up power and interests; in this respect, he and Huo Cheng are equally matched.

If it weren't for the internal and external troubles of the Huo Group, Huo Cheng wouldn't have handed over the shares and some rights to him, the winner of the competition. He would have kept the power in his hands for life and controlled him and Huo Sinian.

A few buzzing sounds.

Huo Sinian called back.

Huo Zhizhou answered: "Is there anything else?"

"Don't interfere in my affairs with Lin Tan. I'll tell you about a father's scheme," Huo Sinian said after much deliberation. "It's related to Jiang Ruan."

He wouldn't reveal a thing if it were someone else.

But Huo Zhizhou knew too much about his relationship with Lin Tan.

Huo Zhizhou: "Not interested."

Huo Sinian: "Don't you want to know why I sabotaged Jiang Ruan's project?"

Huo Zhizhou: "I don't want to."

Huo Sinian's eyes darkened little by little.

After a while.

Huo Sinian still said, "My father once said that if you can't remarry Jiang Ruan, then let me win her over."

Huo Zhizhou's usually calm and composed expression froze.

"I have no interest in Jiang Ruan, and I don't want to get involved with you guys." Huo Sinian rarely spoke so much to Huo Zhizhou. "That's why I found a reason to make her hate me."

For the first time, Huo Zhizhou didn't know what to say in response.

Should he say Huo Sinian was too confident? Or that he underestimated Ruan Ruan?

"This is unnecessary."

“You should know that your greedy father won’t just stand by and watch you give so much of your wealth to Jiang Ruan and do nothing,” Huo Sinian explained to him. “If this plan fails, he will resort to other means.”

Huo Zhizhou remained calm: "And then?"

Huo Sinian truly doesn't understand.

They had witnessed many of their father's shady dealings since they were young. Even his childhood friend jumped off a high building because of his father.

At this point, are you still being willful?

"Tell him that if he uses the same methods he used on Shan Mu'an to deal with Jiang Ruan, I will use the same methods to send him to see his grandfather. Don't say he can't accept defeat then."

“He’s your father,” Huo Sinian reminded him.

Huo Zhizhou didn't deny it: "So what?"

He is not Huo Sinian, who needs to consider the opinions of the world.

Jiang Ruan is his life, and he will not hesitate to use any means to retaliate against anyone who tries to harm her.

At this moment, Huo Sinian suddenly realized that Huo Zhizhou was different from him. He was like a bird kept in a cage, controlling the whole situation. On the surface, he listened to his father, but behind the scenes, he was also planning for his own affairs.

Huo Zhizhou, on the other hand, was a wolf, fearless and ready to fight at the slightest provocation.

"Huo Sinian," Huo Zhizhou rarely spoke to him so bluntly, "I won't stop you from being a good son if you want to, and I'll just assume you're crazy if you want to pursue Ruan Ruan, but don't interfere with her career."

Huo Sinian couldn't understand his younger brother's thoughts for the umpteenth time.

If anyone covets Lin Tan, even if it's just an act, he will feel disgust and rejection, and will even use every means to get rid of them.

But Huo Zhizhou...

"Don't you like her?"

"yes."

"So this is your reaction when I pursue her?" Isn't pursuing Jiang Ruan more infuriating to him than interfering with her career?

"All you've done in pursuing her is experience of rejection, nothing else," Huo Zhizhou said bluntly. "Someone as irresponsible, cowardly, and weak as you is the kind of person she despises most in her life."

Huo Sinian wasn't angry. Instead, he asked, "And what about you? Someone as responsible, bold, and brave as you, does she like you?"

Huo Zhizhou: "I like it."

Huo Siqing chuckled: "I didn't expect you to like deceiving yourself."

"She likes me," Huo Zhizhou said with certainty. "Liking and disliking can coexist."

Huo Sinian was taken aback.

Huo Zhizhou retorted: "Didn't you feel that way with Lin Tan?"

Huo Sinian's grip on the phone tightened little by little.

Lin Tan never liked him.

Everything she did for him was driven by self-interest and hypocrisy.

"This is just the tip of the iceberg. If you lay a hand on Ruan Ruan again, I will not hesitate to break all your arms." Huo Zhizhou's words were both a reminder and a warning. "You care about the cost, but I don't."

Huo Sinian hung up the phone.

He knew that Huo Zhizhou meant what he said, that the Huo family head he cared about was dispensable in his eyes, and that it was a done deal that Lin Tan's role had been brought up.

After much deliberation.

He sent Huo Zhizhou a message: "You'd better watch yourself."

Although Huo Zhizhou has stripped his father of much of his power, his extensive network of connections built over so many years will not simply disappear.

When forced into a corner, my father would do things without regard for the consequences.

Huo Zhizhou could think of the same thing he could think of. After the call ended, he asked Jiang Yu, "Where should we book the hotel for Sui Sui's birthday?"

Assistant Jiang: "??"

Are we not going to arrange what we just did?

He didn't dare ask any more questions and immediately replied, "Haicheng International Seven-Star Hotel."

Huo Zhizhou: "Understood."

Assistant Jiang glanced at him a couple more times.

That's it?

"Is there anything else?" Huo Zhizhou noticed that he seemed to want to say something but then stopped, his eyes darting around.

"What about Young Master Huo?" Assistant Jiang asked boldly, wanting to share the burden with the BOSS but afraid of accidentally messing things up. "Do you need me to make some more preparations to deal with any changes in Jingzhou?"

Huo Zhizhou: "Lin Feng and Lin Bei will handle it well."

Assistant Jiang felt slightly relieved: "Okay."

Jiang Ruan was completely unaware of all this. She continued to busy herself with her career. In the following days, she went to work as usual and arranged all the projects in the neighboring cities of Jingzhou. After finishing her work, she had some free time.

In the future, all you need to do is check their progress and have all parties sign off on the final payment upon project completion.

That day, Jiang Ruan had just finished get off work and hadn't even sat down in the car with Mo Mo when two bodyguards approached her, their attitude very polite: "Miss Jiang, our master invites you in."
