Chapter 723 Worried that she's blinded by her own involvement

"When will he wake up?" Jiang Ruan asked after they finished talking.

"He should wake up in another hour or two," the doctor assessed based on the data. "Normally, he would wake up tomorrow morning or later, but he has received a lot of IV fluids since last night, which has metabolized some of the original medication."

Jiang Ruan: "Okay."

Jiang Ruan asked about Huo Zhizhou's condition and returned to her ward after learning that there was indeed no risk.

After she left, the private doctor found Jiang's assistant and asked about the situation: "Are Mr. Huo and Ms. Jiang really able to reconcile this time?"

"I don't know," said Assistant Jiang.

Private doctor: "You don't know?"

How could I not know that?

This is related to Mr. Huo's mental state.

"How far they can go depends on themselves." Jiang Yu never gossiped too much about these things. "As long as Miss Jiang lowers her defenses against the BOSS, no matter how difficult the road ahead may be, the BOSS will be able to handle it calmly."

The boss wasn't concerned about how difficult it was to win over Miss Jiang.

He only cared that he didn't even have the chance to pursue Miss Jiang.

Now we have it.

The boss can probably rest assured now.

"Find a nutritionist to work together on how to restore the BOSS's health to its former state in the shortest possible time," Assistant Jiang instructed. "A healthy body is very important when pursuing someone."

"This..." the doctor hesitated, unable to finish his sentence.

"Is there a problem?" Jiang Yu asked.

"Not giving Miss Jiang a chance to breathe?" the doctor asked. "Once the BOSS makes up his mind, he'll probably pursue it relentlessly until it becomes unbearable, and it might even cause trouble."

Jiang Yu: "No need."

doctor:"?"

Jiang Yu: "You just need to take care of the BOSS's health."

Miss Jiang knows the BOSS better than they do in these matters, and she certainly knows that her concessions will only lead to the BOSS taking advantage of her.

"Isn't this a bit unethical?" Because of Jiang Ruan's behavior and actions, the doctor still wanted her to have an easier time, at least not be pursued so aggressively by Huo Zhizhou.

“The current Miss Jiang is not the Miss Jiang of the past.” Jiang Yu has a clear understanding of the current situation. “Apart from the BOSS, many other people do not want him to be with Miss Jiang.”

"He will face many challenges and stumbling blocks."

Private doctor: "?"

Private doctor: "Is there anyone else who dares to trip up President Huo?"

Jiang Yu: "Others wouldn't dare, but the BOSS's parents-in-law are no ordinary people."

Madam Jiang was alright; she either ignored it or cut it off completely.

But it's different with Chairman Li.

He's prone to being sarcastic and sabotaging others behind their backs.

The boss is good at dealing with this kind of person, but it becomes more difficult when the person is also the "father-in-law".

Even if Miss Jiang didn't acknowledge it, the seniority still matters.

Not to mention Mr. Qin.

"That's true..." the private doctor nodded, "Then do your best?"

"Yes, we should try to get her back to health as soon as possible." Jiang Ruan was Huo Zhizhou's special assistant, and after understanding Jiang Ruan's thoughts, she naturally sided with Huo Zhizhou and thought of him.

He didn't want Chairman Li to use the BOSS's body to make fun of him.

The private doctor readily agreed: "Okay."

The two talked about these things.

Jiang Ruan was on the phone in Huo Zhizhou's private room.

The people on the other end of the phone were Chairman Li and Jiang An, whom they had just been talking about.

“Mom,” Jiang Ruan said.

"How are you doing over there?" Jiang An's concerned voice came through the phone.

Jiang Ruan: "It's fine."

Jiang An: "Really?"

Jiang Ruan: "Mm."

“If you ask her like that, she’ll definitely let you know she’s safe.” Li Zhishen’s voice came from the other end, but it was rather soft, clearly not directed at the phone. “Why don’t you give it to me, and I’ll ask her.”

Jiang Ruan: "?"

Jiang Ruan noticed something was wrong: "What's wrong?"

"Li Zhishen's men saw you go to the hospital last night," Jiang An asked directly.

Jiang Ruan paused for a moment.

I didn't expect to find someone I knew here.

"I heard Huo Zhizhou is here too." Li Zhishen's voice came from the side.

"He was slightly injured," Jiang Ruan told him truthfully without hiding anything. "I came to check on him."

Li Zhishen looked at Jiang An, his eyes conveying: See, I guessed right.

Jiang An: ...

Li Zhishen: Huo Zhizhou is a very deep and thoughtful person.

Jiang An didn't look at him again.

"Don't worry, I'm fine," Jiang Ruan reassured them. "I'll be back in two days."

“I’ll pick you up from the airport,” Li Zhishen said.

"No need," Jiang Ruan refused. "Tang Bai will make the arrangements."

The phone went silent.

Li Zhishen wanted to ask, but he was afraid of upsetting his daughter.

As a result, many things were kept to myself.

"How badly is Huo Zhizhou injured?" Jiang An asked. "How did he get injured?"

Jiang Ruan paused for a moment.

It's rare to hesitate.

If I say it was an accident, Mom will definitely be suspicious.

Huo Zhizhou was surrounded by bodyguards, with Jiang Yulin and Lin Feng providing close protection; such an accident was impossible.

After careful consideration, she chose to avoid the topic: "It's not very serious. I can be discharged after a few days. You don't need to worry."

Li Zhishen: "..."

He wasn't worried at all.

He was only worried that some shameless people would have their eyes on his daughter.

"Then you go ahead and do your work. Call your mother if you need anything." Jiang An didn't ask any further questions.

Jiang Ruan: "Okay."

After they finished speaking, the two hung up the phone.

Li Zhishen became anxious as soon as the call ended, but he didn't dare to be too hasty in front of Jiang An, so he could only suppress his emotions and ask, "Why did you hang up so quickly? Why didn't you ask more questions? What if this was Huo Zhizhou's scheme?"

"You can tell, but Ruan Ruan can't?" Jiang An retorted.

Li Zhishen: "I'm worried that she's too caught up in the situation to see things clearly."

Jiang An: "Just because you're an observer doesn't mean you're completely clear-headed?"

Li Zhishen: "Of course."

Jiang An casually tossed a news article to his phone: "Then tell me, who is right and who is wrong in this news report?"

Li Zhishen took a look.

Silence fell.

He didn't see the details; all he saw was what others wanted him to see.

“Ruan Ruan is an adult. She has the ability to solve problems and see things clearly.” Jiang An treats Jiang Ruan as an independent individual, not someone’s appendage. “You don’t need to treat her like a child.”

“I’m afraid she’ll be deceived by Huo Zhizhou,” Li Zhishen explained. “That guy is cunning; who knows if this is just a ruse he’s using?”

Jiang An: "Even if it's a self-inflicted injury, Ruan Ruan has her own considerations."

She might have been worried in the past.

She was so soft and small back then.

But now, having experienced both good and bad things, she has risen to a position of authority, seen a wider and broader world, and witnessed the more complexities of human nature.

Now, she can see everything clearly.

Li Zhishen wanted to say something, but he knew that Jiang An was right, so he finally turned the topic to himself: "You're right, so can I have breakfast here for free?"

Jiang An remained silent.

Li Zhi, with a thick skin, sat down and started eating.

As for Jiang Ruan, she glanced at the time after ending the call.

It should only be morning back home at this hour, and Uncle Li is already out looking for his mother so early...

In the time that followed.

Jiang Ruan is staying at the hospital.

Several hours passed in the blink of an eye.

Seeing that Huo Zhizhou had not yet woken up, Jiang Ruan went to answer a work call.

Huo Zhizhou woke up shortly after she left. He smelled a faint scent of disinfectant and his first thought was that something had happened to him and he had ended up in a hospital room in his own residence.

But when he opened his eyes, he realized that this was a hospital, not where he lived.
