Chapter 797 Such politeness is unlike you
"You lad, your chess style is just like your personality," Old Master Qin praised, his appreciation for him growing even stronger. "I wonder who's better between you two, you or that brat Li Zhishen."
Just as Huo Zhizhou was about to speak, he noticed Jiang Ruan walking towards them out of the corner of his eye.
Seeing that she looked calm but her gaze was fixed on him, he felt a little uneasy.
He was afraid she had come to drive him away.
"What are you looking at..." Old Master Qin followed his gaze and saw Jiang Ruan approaching. "Why did Ruan come down? Is she trying to get rid of you?"
Huo Zhizhou: "That's possible."
Old Master Qin looked at him.
Knowing this, why are you still so calm?
"If Ruan Ruan tries to kick me out later, I'd appreciate it if you could stay a little longer," Huo Zhizhou said, preparing himself.
Old Master Qin hesitated for a moment, then agreed: "Okay."
The words fell.
Jiang Ruan arrived in front of them.
His gaze swept across the chessboard, and seeing that the outcome was already decided, he said to Old Master Qin without any hesitation, "Huo Zhizhou, can I borrow two minutes? I need to talk to him about something."
"What is it?" Old Master Qin asked.
Jiang Ruan: "It's a private matter."
Old Master Qin looked at Huo Zhizhou.
The latter had already stood up.
"Remember to have him come over after you're done talking," Old Master Qin said indirectly. "I'm still waiting to review this game with him."
Jiang Ruan hummed in agreement.
Upon hearing this reply, Huo Zhizhou was completely relieved.
He knew that Jiang Ruan wasn't looking for him to get rid of him, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed so readily.
A moment later.
They went to the other side of the garden.
Seeing Jiang Ruan's serious expression and strong aura, Huo Zhizhou took the initiative to ask, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Ruan: "When was it transferred?"
Huo Zhizhou's voice rose at the end: "Hmm?"
Jiang Ruan reminded her: "When will all your assets be transferred to my name?"
Huo Zhizhou paused.
My first thought was that Ruan Ruan shouldn't have known.
There are so many assets that some have not yet been fully realized.
He specifically instructed Jiang Yu and the others that Ruan Ruan should not know before the matter was completed, and some matters should even be left unresolved for more than a year before she could find out, otherwise they could be returned.
"You want it?" Huo Zhizhou's expression remained unchanged as he spoke unhurriedly. "I'll call Jiang Yu later and have him handle it."
Jiang Ruan: "?"
Huo Zhizhou: "Do you have a specific desire for it, or do you want it all?"
Jiang Ruan frowned slightly as she stared at him.
You won't even admit this?
"What's wrong?" Huo Zhizhou's dark eyes were completely black.
“You don’t need to pretend, I know everything,” Jiang Ruan said, her eyes seemingly able to see right through him.
Huo Zhizhou looked puzzled: "What?"
Jiang Ruan stopped beating around the bush and told him directly, "When Mo Mo went to handle some business, he saw them transfer your assets to my name. He pretended to be one of your people and asked around, and learned the whole story."
Huo Zhizhou still looked like he didn't quite understand.
There was a few seconds of silence.
He spoke again: "You mean there's a place where my property was transferred to you?"
Jiang Ruan: "Yes."
Huo Zhizhou: "I'll call and ask."
After saying that, he took out his phone and dialed Jiang Yu's number. His expression was serious and his eyes were focused.
It was as if they truly knew nothing about it.
For a moment, Jiang Ruan thought Mo Mo had misheard, or that the staff there had made a mistake.
"Ruan Ruan said she saw someone transfer my assets to her name privately. Please check it out."
"right."
"Find out who did it."
"Focus on investigating Huo Sinian and Li Zhishen."
Listening to his words, Jiang Ruan's doubts about herself deepened.
Although she didn't hear the whole conversation between him and Jiang Yu, she vaguely heard that Jiang Yu was completely unaware of the matter. Coupled with what Huo Zhizhou had just said, she suddenly felt that if it was Uncle Li... it might not be impossible.
But if it weren't for Huo Zhizhou, how would those people dare to transfer assets so recklessly?
"Jiang Yu went to investigate." Huo Zhizhou hung up the phone, very serious. "We should have results soon."
Jiang Ruan remained silent.
Be skeptical of this matter.
"It's highly likely that Huo Sinian and Chairman Li did it," Huo Zhizhou said again, his voice low and deep.
"How could they transfer your information?" Jiang Ruan still suspects that he was faking it.
She understands him.
I've seen him call white black.
I've seen him do it, yet he looked completely nonchalant.
"I don't know." Huo Zhizhou appeared very sincere, "but it's definitely related to Lin Bei and Lin Feng, but it's just that Chairman Li and Huo Sinian can't transfer my assets."
Jiang Ruan's gaze remained fixed on him: "Your assets were transferred without your knowledge, aren't you angry?"
"It's not like I'm transferring it to someone else, why are you angry?" Huo Zhizhou said frankly. "I originally planned to transfer part of it to you as a birthday present this year, and then transfer the rest next year."
Jiang Ruan didn't look at him anymore, not intending to continue the conversation: "Tell me when you have the results."
After saying that, he headed towards the residence.
Watching her retreating figure, a chill crept into Huo Zhizhou's eyes. Only after she had completely disappeared from his sight did he send Jiang Yu a message: 【Find out who leaked it.】
Fearing that Ruan Ruan would find out and refuse to accept the gift, he emphasized countless times that this matter must not be leaked and that Ruan Ruan must not find out or know before everything is settled.
Now look what's happened.
Not only leaked.
She also told Mo Mo about it.
Jiang Yu: [Understood.]
It must be said that Jiang Yu is very efficient.
The truth was revealed in less than an hour.
"I've already spoken to the consul, and they promised to strengthen management and dismiss anyone who does this again," Jiang Yu reported.
Huo Zhizhou: "Where is Lin Feng?"
Jiang Yu looked at the person who was playing with Lin Bei and was getting a little agitated: "He's over there."
Huo Zhizhou: "I'll tell him something later."
He explained the plan.
Jiang Yu readily agreed.
The matter is settled.
Huo Zhizhou then called Li Zhishen.
"Huo Zhizhou?" Li Zhishen was surprised by his call, since they didn't usually keep in touch.
Huo Zhizhou: "There's something I need your help with."
Li Zhishen scoffed, his words as venomous as venom: "Now you know to address me as 'you'."
Huo Zhizhou: "If you can get Ruan Ruan to acknowledge you, I can call you 'you' for the rest of my life."
Li Zhishen: "Is this how you ask for favors?"
Huo Zhizhou: "This concerns whether SoftSoft can profit."
Li Zhishen: "..."
Li Zhishen remained silent.
After a brief moment of thought, he said, "What is it you want to say first?"
Huo Zhizhou recounted what had just happened. He had told Li Zhishen about this a long time ago, so he wasn't worried that Li Zhishen would let it slip.
Listen to the entire presentation.
Li Zhishen agreed.
"Thank you." Huo Zhizhou said politely for a second.
"This politeness isn't like you," Li Zhishen teased.
"They're gone," Jiang An's voice came through.
Li Zhishen: "They're here."
Jiang An: "Whose call was that?"
Li Zhishen: "Nobody, just a dog."
Jiang An: "Turn off your phone after you go inside, don't hold us back."
Li Zhishen: "Okay."
As the conversation began, Li Zhishen hung up the phone without even saying goodbye.
After settling everything, Huo Zhizhou went upstairs, intending to tell Jiang Ruan the "truth".
