Chapter 458 Huo Zhizhou and Qin Luofeng

Seeing that he kept sending messages, Qin Luofeng took the initiative to start a conversation: "Second Young Master Huo".

Huo Zhizhou looked up.

The phone screen went out after I sent the message.

"May I ask, what is the purpose of you asking me to provide you with Jiang Ruan's location these past two days?" Qin Luofeng exuded a gentle aura as he looked at Huo Zhizhou with a scrutinizing gaze.

Although Huo Zhizhou is somewhat different from before he lost his memory, he is still just as unfathomable.

Two days ago, I went to him to test his amnesia and what his attitude was towards Jiang Ruan, but before I could find out anything, he started ordering me around.

Huo Zhizhou countered with, "What do you think?"

Qin Luofeng: "If I knew, I wouldn't have asked."

Huo Zhizhou fiddled with his phone, his gaze fixed on the view outside the window.

Seeing his reaction, Qin Luofeng spoke again, his words carrying a hint of brotherly concern for his sister: "I don't necessarily need to know your purpose, but Jiang Ruan is still my sister, and I need to know whether you are good or bad to her."

"Aren't you a little late to ask this now?" Huo Zhizhou's voice rose at the end as he glanced at him, exuding an undeniable air of authority.

Qin Luofeng remained calm.

If the person in front of him wasn't Huo Zhizhou, he would have thrown him down long ago.

He's still so arrogant even when I order him around; isn't he afraid of getting beaten up?

“My people are secretly watching her movements. I can protect her no matter if you are good or bad,” he said. “I’m only asking now to show you my sincerity.”

Huo Zhizhou's gaze remained fixed on him: "Is that so?"

Those two seemingly insignificant words felt like a stone hitting the heart; they didn't hurt, but they were enough to make one feel tense and uneasy.

Qin Luofeng hesitated, as if he wanted to say something but then stopped.

Huo Zhizhou exposed him before he could speak, showing no mercy whatsoever: "Whether you treat her as a younger sister or something else is none of my business, and I don't want to know."

"Then you want me to keep an eye on her?" Qin Luofeng couldn't see through this person.

Whether it's right now or in the present, everything is like a fog.

"My son is in her hands." Huo Zhizhou was very good at making up lies with a straight face, and there was no trace of deception on his handsome face. "Before I can get custody back, I need to know if she is good to the child."

Qin Luofeng: "You want to fight for custody?"

Huo Zhizhou: "You call it stealing your own child?"

Qin Luofeng met his gaze and saw the determination and calculation in Huo Zhizhou's eyes, as well as his unfamiliarity with Jiang Ruan, devoid of any affection.

The rumors seem to be true.

Under the influence of the Huo family elders, Huo Zhizhou, who had lost his memory, had a great misunderstanding about Jiang Ruan.

Now, can they proceed without further action?

"Didn't you have something to discuss with me before?" Huo Zhizhou said.

Qin Luofeng: "It's gone now."

Huo Zhizhou slightly raised his eyes.

Qin Luofeng said, "No matter what my relationship with Jiang Ruan is, she is still my sister. I can't talk to someone who wants to take custody of her child."

"Then I wish you will always be her good brother." Huo Zhizhou said calmly.

Qin Luofeng did not speak again.

The weight that had been pressing on my heart was finally lifted.

Huo Zhizhou got off the car at the intersection and went straight to Si Ning's place.

Seeing him arrive, Si Ning felt no emotion whatsoever. She simply reminded him as he sat down, "If you want to cause trouble for Jiang Ruan, then continue to associate with Qin Luofeng."

"The talks are over," Huo Zhizhou said, then casually asked, "Does Jiang Ruan and Qin Luofeng have any conflict of interest?"

Si Ning glanced at him: "How did you know?"

"After our two encounters, I felt that he was somewhat wary of me." Based on the few words exchanged in the car and the conversation he had with me on Friday, Huo Zhizhou concluded, "That wariness didn't seem like fear of me, but rather more like concern that I would interfere in something."

Upon hearing that he wanted custody of Sui Sui, she immediately said it was okay and she would talk to him about it.

Add to that Old Master Qin, who was living in Jiang Ruan's house and was in a bad mood.

All signs pointed to the fact that Qin Luofeng was worried that Old Master Qin would leave his inheritance to Jiang An and Jiang Ruan, thus reducing their share of the inheritance.

but……

What kind of profit could make him so worried?

"How did you talk to him?" Si Ning was no longer surprised by his meticulous thinking.

Huo Zhizhou: "I'm pretending I came here for the sake of Sui Sui's custody."

Si Ning: "Congratulations on getting Jiang Ruan into a big mess."

Huo Zhizhou: "?"

Si Ning: "The conflict of interest between the Qin family and Jiang Ruan is 20% of the shares in the Qin Group. As long as she completes the family task assessment, she can get the shares."

Twenty percent?

Once you get your hands on it, you can become a major shareholder of the Qin Group.

Although they don't have veto power, the sheer number of them is enough to influence many things.

“Before, Qin Luofeng’s family didn’t dare to do anything secretly because of your concern for Jiang Ruan.” Since it concerned Jiang Ruan’s safety, Si Ning told them everything. “But now that they know you and Jiang Ruan are enemies, they have no more scruples.”

Huo Zhizhou fell into thought.

"You've gone too far," Si Ning said to him.

Huo Zhizhou: "It's alright."

Si Ning clicked his tongue.

Even now, they're still being stubborn.

"You openly admit you like Jiang Ruan in front of others, so why are you hiding it from Qin Luofeng?" This was the only thing Si Ning didn't understand.

"He's an outsider," Huo Zhizhou said, only uttering one sentence.

Si Ning thought for a moment.

Is there any difference?

“I’ll handle this,” Huo Zhizhou said, already having a plan. “But there’s something I need to trouble you with.”

Si Ning: "What?"

Huo Zhizhou: "Help me contact Jiang Yu and others; I have no one else I can use."

No matter what you do, you need people.

Jiang Yu and the others were the people Jiang Ruan said she could trust.

"This is the last time," Si Ning agreed.

When they talked about these things.

Qin Luofeng told Qin Muchuan what had happened in the past two days.

They sat in the study, the atmosphere somewhat subdued. After a while, Qin Muchuan asked, "Are you sure Huo Zhizhou came here to fight for custody of the child?"

“He said it himself,” Qin Luofeng said.

“But when it comes to custody, a lawyer should be more effective than him coming over.” Qin Muchuan was unusually rational.

“Sui Sui is older now, and his opinion in court is also very important. Huo Zhizhou probably wants to get along well with the child,” Qin Luofeng said, word by word, “and also see how Jiang Ruan treats the child.”

Qin Muchuan did not speak.

I was thinking about it.

"What was he like when he was with Jiang Ruan?" he asked.

"Peaceful." Qin Luofeng was being watched the entire time. "Like two strangers who weren't very familiar with each other."

"Alright." After careful consideration, Qin Muchuan made a decision. "Observe for a few more days. If Huo Zhizhou continues to treat Jiang Ruan this way, then proceed according to plan. If not, then we'll think of another way."

You can't blame him for being hesitant and indecisive.

There's only one chance, so we can't gamble recklessly.

If you lose the gamble, not only will you lose everything you have now, but you might also end up like Li Chengxuan.

“He even handed over the position of president of the Huo Group, so it doesn’t seem like he still has his memory.” Qin Luofeng held the opposite opinion.

Rather than procrastination.

He wanted to resolve the issue as soon as possible.

Amnesia is unpredictable. If things drag on and Huo Zhizhou regains his memory, then we'll have missed a golden opportunity. At that point, he might listen to his brother and not get involved.
