The clouds and mists have dispersed, and everyone knows that I love you.

"Thank you, Grandpa. In that case, you can make the final decision. I will listen to you."

Huo Yan on the other end just smiled perfunctorily and gave some praise as usual.

"I knew Yuyan was a good and sensible child. That's settled then."

With the promise of Huo Yan, the backbone of the family, Zheng Yuyan did not delay any longer and immediately completed the discharge procedures.

The first thing I did when I returned to the Lanting side yard was to get a beauty treatment, a manicure and choose a dress.

On the day of the Huo family banquet, she will definitely outshine all the other beauties!

Let Shi Rong see clearly, after all these years, who is more beautiful between her, Zheng Yuyan and Shi Rong!

When they first met, Shi Rong had a beautiful face that made Zheng Yuyan jealous and she dreamed of replacing him.

She just didn't believe that after going through so many storms, first entering Jishan and then entering Huating Shengshi, she secretly sent so many people just to deliberately destroy her face.

How could she still be so stunningly beautiful at this age?

But the uglier she is, the more proud Zheng Yuyan is!

She beat her 4 years ago. Will she lose again 4 years later?

Stupid women are like this. They always think that as long as they can be better than others in appearance, it is equivalent to winning the whole world.

But the beauty that she values ​​is what Shi Rong disdains the most.

……

"You really know her well. You knew she'd definitely call me before she was discharged from the hospital."

On the floor above where she and Zheng Yuyan had stayed in a single ward, Huo Yanren was still sitting upright beside Shi Rong's bed.

What he said just now was also said deliberately for Zheng Yuyan to hear by Shi Rong, asking him to cooperate with him.

"People can only climb the highest when they are at their most proud, and they can also fall the hardest when they are caught off guard. The only way to completely eliminate the disease that has been rotten to the bone is to uproot it. Mr. Huo should understand this principle better than me."

Shi Rong is Shi Rong. No matter who she is with, she can always come up with an immediate and effective strategy. This makes Huo Yan admire her meticulous thinking.

She can even handle the aristocratic banquet held by the Huo family at the end of each year with ease. She is truly a rare talent.

"If you and Jiuzhou hadn't had this unfortunate relationship, perhaps you and I could have become pretty good friends."

Shi Rong had heard this kind of nice-sounding polite talk countless times and was tired of dealing with it.

Right now, I just smile calmly and take it easy.

"I don't dare call myself a friend. I just hope that after this incident, Mr. Huo will show mercy and let me go."

If she really follows the clues and tries to climb up the social ladder, wouldn't it make her seem too impatient?

A common problem among rich men is that they prefer to deal with smart women, including the arrogant Huo Jiuzhou.

It was rare for someone as serious and rigid as Huo Yan to reveal a smile of relief that came from the heart in front of her.

"Little girl, you are so eloquent and articulate! You are truly worthy of being the person personally chosen by the head of the Huo family. After this incident, I will carefully consider your relationship with Jiuzhou."

Huo Yanneng was able to say such a rare thing when they were the only two in the room. Shi Rong knew that the opportunity should not be missed.

Unfortunately, she was already extremely disappointed with Huo Jiuzhou and didn't want to have any unnecessary attachment to him, so she shook her head in accordance with her heart.

"Thank you for your kindness. Some people are destined not to be together. Just having been together is enough."

Huo Yan understood what she meant and chose to respect her decision.

It is also understandable that any woman in this world would learn her lesson and change her original intention after receiving such a devastating blow from her lover.

What a pity!

He had only dealt with Shi Rong twice, but both times, he was able to discover different shining points in Shi Rong, and he could better understand why Huo Jiuzhou chose her in the first place.

"Then I'll have to trouble Mr. Huo for what happens in two days."

Before leaving, Shi Rong stood up to see her off. As a talented person with outstanding talents in all aspects, even if she disliked Huo Yan's personality, she could still show some courtesy.

The latter nodded in agreement.

"as you wish."

……

It was already 11 o'clock in the evening when Huo Jiuzhou finished his work. When he returned to the ward, he was surprised to see that Shi Rongren had not slept yet. Instead, he was sitting on the bed, quietly reading a book and waiting for him.

There have been a lot of things going on at home recently and the company has been busy, so his return time every night is uncertain, and sometimes he comes back in the early morning. Every time I wait for him to come, Shi Rong has already fallen into a deep sleep.

Why is she willing to go against her usual behavior and wait for him obediently tonight?

Is it because it’s still early?

"You're back?"

The woman's willingness to take the initiative to speak and greet him made Huo Jiuzhou even more delighted.

His Ah Rong seemed to have become gentler tonight.

Raising his hand, Huo Jiuzhou touched the rough hair on her head lovingly, his tone gentle.

"Well, I'm back. Were you waiting for me?"

Shi Rong nodded and gave him a gentle smile.

"I cut some fruit for you, do you want some?"

"want!"

It was almost a subconscious response, the man blurted out without hesitation.

Perhaps the sun rose from the south today? His Ah Rong was not only gentler but also more considerate.

Shi Rong took out a bowl of peeled pears from the fresh-keeping box on the bedside table. The skin was scraped smooth and clean, and the shape was also small and delicate.

"It's dry in winter, eat some pears. I know you don't like it, but it can clear your lungs and soothe your throat. You're so busy every day, you have to take care of yourself."

Apples, bananas and pears are the three things Huo Jiuzhou dislikes the most, no doubt about it.

Not to mention eating it, usually people won’t even look at it twice.

But as long as Shi Rong peeled and cut it for him personally, he would love to eat it, even if it contained poppy arsenic.

"You feed me."

No matter how decisive a man is during the day, he can make a decision concerning the life and death of the Huo family every five minutes on average.

But when he returned to Shi Rong's place at night, he looked like a child who had not grown up yet.

The woman smiled bitterly. It seemed that the saying "A man remains a boy until he dies" was true.

Following his instructions, he picked up the small fork beside the bowl and picked up a piece. Before it even reached his lips, Huo Jiuzhou took the initiative to take a bite and ate it. It made a crunching sound in his mouth and tasted good, crispy, sweet, and refreshing.

The pears peeled by A-heng are still the most delicious.

Whenever Shi Rong fed him a piece, he would eat it one bite at a time, piece by piece, bite by bite, Huo Jiuzhou enjoyed it so much.

Even though I had just eaten before coming back, it still felt not enough at this moment.

As if he was under some addictive spell, for the first time in his life, he found that the pears he had previously hated were so delicious.

After feeding him everything, Shi Rong put away the glass bowl in his hand, took out a tissue, and gently wiped away the remaining water stains on his lips.

"Have you eaten yet?"

Shi Rong disposed of the used tissue and looked up at him.
