Chapter 680 Departure
"Mommy!" Sui Sui calls out to her happily every day.
"Good morning, darling." As Jiang Ruan spoke, her gaze fell on his suitcase, and she asked with a hint of curiosity, "Didn't you use a light blue cartoon suitcase yesterday? Why did you change it?"
Sui Sui smiled and said, "This one looks more mature."
Jiang Ruan: "Hmm?"
Sui Sui said in a serious tone, "I am now five and a half years old, or six years old in the traditional Chinese age reckoning. I am no longer a three-year-old or a five-year-old child. I have to grow up and be a little adult."
"So, you changed into this outfit to look like a little adult?" Jiang Ruan asked gently, her eyes filled with a warm smile.
Sui Sui nodded, a smile playing on her lips: "Yes!"
Jiang Ruan reached out and rubbed his head.
Sui Sui looked down at herself, then looked up and asked, "Do I look like a little adult in this outfit? Or do I look childish?"
"No, I'm too young to be a grown-up," Jiang Ruan smiled slightly.
She probably knew why Sui Sui asked and did that.
Sui Sui has always been thoughtful and knowledgeable.
She won't interfere too much.
"That's good." Sui Sui breathed a sigh of relief, quite satisfied with her outfit and suitcase. "Let's go downstairs for breakfast."
Jiang Ruan took the suitcase from his hand and held his hand: "Okay."
Sui Sui behaved remarkably calmly during this breakfast.
He was a quiet and reserved gentleman.
Jiang An and Grandpa Qin were somewhat surprised by his state. They both turned their gazes to Jiang Ruan, silently asking what was wrong with the child and whether she was hiding something.
Jiang Ruan shook her head at them, indicating that she was fine.
Jiang An didn't press the matter further.
Her own daughter said she was fine, which meant she really was fine, because as her mother, she was more worried than anyone else.
But Old Master Qin was still worried, and after much deliberation, he looked at Sui Sui and said, "Sui Sui."
Sui Sui looked up: "Hmm?"
Seeing the lack of smiles and childlike innocence on his face, Old Master Qin couldn't help but ask, "Are you hiding something? Why don't you seem as happy as usual today?"
“I’m acting like a little adult,” Sui Sui replied.
Old Master Qin: "Young Master?"
Sui Sui: "Do I look more charismatic than usual now?"
Old Master Qin stared at it for a while, then nodded: "Yes."
Sui Sui politely asked, "If you didn't know me, would you think at first glance that I'm a smart, gullible, mature, and rational child?"
After thinking for a moment, Old Master Qin nodded again: "Yes."
Sui Sui's tense body relaxed slightly: "That's good."
Old Master Qin: "?"
Old Master Qin was completely bewildered: "What do you mean?"
"I have to let Dad know that even without him, I can be better to Mom than he is." Sui Sui's competitive spirit kicked in. "More reliable."
He had to expose his father's self-inflicted injury scheme.
Hmph.
Old Master Qin opened his mouth.
Suddenly I didn't know what to say.
"But……"
“Please say so,” Sui Sui said very politely.
Grandpa Qin's gaze fell on the children's watch on his wrist, and he coughed lightly and said in a low voice, "The children's watch you're wearing is too cute, it's a bit overwhelming for your aura."
These words were spoken.
All eyes were on him.
Compared to his rather formal attire, the children's watch on his wrist was indeed exceptionally cute.
Sui Sui stared at it for a while, and a slight crack appeared on her face.
He used to love cute things, so much so that all the children's watches his mom bought for him were very cute, and some were even specially customized according to his favorite cartoons.
Now……
"It's nothing." His mind raced, and he said seriously, "It's better to dress childishly than to act and talk childishly as an adult."
My father's actions.
It's incredibly childish.
He's definitely going to win this game!
"Well said." Old Master Qin gave him a thumbs up. "He truly deserves to be a child of the Qin family."
Sui Sui scratched her head, a hint of shyness on her face.
With the praise from her elders, Sui Sui felt more confident.
I think beating my dad completely is not a problem.
It was a little past nine in the morning.
Tang Bai took them to the airport, where they went through the VIP channel to the private jet that Huo Zhizhou had arranged in advance. Huo Sinian was already waiting there.
He was wearing a light gray suit, which made him look refined and elegant. His glasses added to his air of authority. He looked at Jiang Ruan and said slowly, "If it had been a few days later, I would have been back in Jingzhou."
"Are you willing to do that?" Jiang Ruan retorted.
Huo Si smiled gently: "What do I have to be reluctant about?"
Jiang Ruan exposed him without hesitation: "You didn't come here for Lin Tan?"
Huo Sinian's gaze fell on her.
He clearly didn't expect her to know.
“Don’t even mention a few days later, even if it’s a month later, you might not go back.” Based on what she had talked about with Lin Tan last time, Jiang Ruan had a new understanding of Huo Sinian.
"Does your sister-in-law know me so well?" Huo Sinian asked deliberately.
Jiang Ruan didn't want to talk to him at all.
If someone keeps calling you that after you've said it once, twice, or three times, it just means they have a problem with their brain and can't understand human language.
"Do you think Zhizhou would be jealous if he knew how well you know me?" Huo Sinian said slowly, his gaze towards Jiang Ruan carrying a hint of amusement.
“I don’t know if he’ll be jealous.” Jiang Ruan met his gaze. “But I know that the chances of you winning Lin Tan back here are zero.”
Huo Sinian: "You're not her, how would you know?"
Jiang Ruan: "Don't you know what you did to her?"
Huo Sinian thought for a moment.
Given Lin Tan's personality, it would indeed be very difficult to win her back.
But difficult doesn't mean impossible.
As long as you use the right methods, there is always a chance.
He's not like Huo Er, that idiot who only knows how to use these stupid methods.
"Let's go." Huo Sinian changed the subject naturally, "Let's get on the plane first, and you'll see your ex-husband in a few hours."
Jiang Ruan didn't speak to him again.
I led Sui Sui into the car.
The whole trip was very long.
It wasn't until six or seven in the afternoon that the plane arrived at Huo Zhizhou's location.
As for Huo Zhizhou...
When Jiang Yu and Lin Bei set off for the airport, he changed his clothes and went with them.
Seeing his boss's expression, Jiang Yu's eyes flashed with surprise, and he tentatively asked, "What's wrong...?"
Huo Zhizhou: "Go pick up Ruan Ruan and Sui Sui."
"We'll go pick them up. We'll definitely bring Miss Jiang and the young master back safely." Jiang Yu didn't really want him to go out. His health wasn't very good to begin with, and if he went out and suffered any more, it would only get worse.
"No need," Huo Zhizhou refused. "I'll go with you."
Jiang Yu and Lin Bei exchanged a glance.
In the end, I had no choice but to take him with me.
After all, he's the boss, and they all have to listen to him.
Moreover, the BOSS has probably been waiting for Miss Jiang and the young master for a long time.
"Okay." Jiang Yu didn't say anything more and opened the car door for him. "Miss Jiang and the others will arrive in about an hour. It's just in time for us to go now."
