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

Huo Jiuzhou clenched his fists so hard that they made a crackling sound, and gnashed his teeth in hatred.

But Shi Rong's life was in his hands, and he had no choice but to follow his wishes!

Even though he already has the ability to confront Huo Yan single-handedly, Shi Rong is still in his hands!

For the first time in his life, Huo Jiuzhou felt so incompetent! If he had known this would happen, he would rather have locked her up by his side every day than have this feeling of not being able to control everything.

This made him panic and even more scared!

The two sides were in a stalemate, and finally Huo Jiuzhou took Shi Rong's personal safety into consideration and was the first to surrender.

"Grandpa, can I see her?"

"No."

Huo Yan blurted out the answer without even thinking about it.

"Then let me call her?"

Huo Yan knew very well that this was the bottom line for Huo Jiuzhou, who had endured to the extreme.

Perhaps he did this not to really see Shi Rong, but just to make sure that the person was really in his hands.

If he still refuses, he and Huo Jiuzhou will probably end up in a war.

"Okay, but you have to promise to do as I say."

Huo Jiuzhou knew what he meant. As long as he made this call, he would not be able to help tonight no matter what happened.

Taking a deep breath, he finally made this extremely difficult decision for him.

"My grandson understands."

Huo Yan reached out and took the dedicated private phone from Wen Quan's pocket behind him, and dialed the home landline connected to a villa area outside the Huo family.

That area of ​​houses was once the old residence of the Huo family in its early years. It was sparsely populated and not open to the public. Only a few capable servants were occasionally sent there to clean it up and preserve it as a souvenir.

The reason why he chose to place Shi Rong there was very simple: this woman refused to step into the main gate of the Huo family no matter what.

Huo Yan couldn't understand the young man's thoughts, so he just followed her.

The call was dialed, and when it was connected, Shi Rong's hoarse and unpleasant voice came from the other end. Huo Rong got straight to the point.

"Jiuzhou is looking for you."

Shi Rong was not surprised to hear the news.

After all, she disappeared suddenly without even saying hello in advance. It would be strange if the man didn't look for her.

"understood."

After receiving a positive response from the woman, Huo Yan handed the phone to the anxious Huo Jiuzhou.

"Ah Rong!"

When the man's anxious and magnetic voice reached Shi Xiang's ears, the latter had a look of self-pity.

"Jiuzhou, I'm fine, don't worry."

Just eight words, without any additional words, made Huo Jiuzhou feel unprecedented peace of mind.

She called him 'Jiuzhou'.

This was an intimate name he had never heard from her since she returned from Thorn Mountain.

"Ah Rong, what did you call me?"

oops…

Chu Yu, who was listening in, was almost speechless. Why didn't he say something important right now and still had the mood to worry about this?

The woman paused, rubbed the new wound on her forehead, and said obediently.

"Jiuzhou, I'm really fine. Mr. Huo didn't make things difficult for me. Don't worry."

Shi Rong never lies!

Even if she is in a crisis and imprisoned, she will definitely try her best to help herself out!

If not, it means that she is really fine.

"it is good."

The man nodded heavily.

He thought that Huo Yan would not do anything to her for the time being, even if it was because of the years of friendship between the two.

"Don't be afraid, Ah Rong. No matter what happens, I will always be by your side. You still have me."

Have it?

Shi Rong didn't think so. In this world, the only person she could truly own was herself.

But in order to make the man feel at ease and not ruin her plan, Shi Rong said nice things as usual.

"I know, you're the best."

A gentle smile appeared on Huo Jiuzhou's lips.

"Well, be good, Ah-Rong."

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Huo Jiuzhou felt relieved, and his whole state returned to his former heroic state.

"Why did Grandpa kidnap Ah Rong?"

The old man's move was intended to make things difficult for Shi Rong. Huo Jiuzhou could see that he really didn't intend to interfere, but he had to make the necessary preparations.

At least if things really get out of control, it will be a good time to shelter yourself from the storm.

Abducted?

After hearing this, Huo Yan couldn't help but twitch his lips. What on earth did he think of his own grandfather?

Robbers and bandits?

Is it possible that the person left on their own? He simply found a new way to keep her here? He would rather doubt the moral bottom line of his grandfather than believe that Shi Rong really no longer loved him?

In Huo Yan's opinion, it would be harder than climbing to heaven to make Huo Jiuzhou wake up.

"Jiuzhou, I once reminded you that you shouldn't judge people or things by appearances alone. You really don't understand your Ah Rong."

With Shi Rong's ability, let alone being kidnapped, it would be a good thing if she didn't kidnap anyone.

5 years.

He had such a one-sided understanding of his sweetheart, no wonder he suffered such a crushing defeat.

Huo Jiuzhou only felt that these kind words of reminder meant that the old man still had prejudices against Shi Rong, thinking that she was not perfect enough and not worthy of being the main wife of the Huo family.

It's no wonder he thought so. After all, Huo Yan only expressed his sudden admiration for Shi Rong in private; on the surface, he always disliked her.

It is indeed too difficult for Huo Jiuzhou to respond in a positive way in time.

Since he can't influence other people's thoughts, he can only stand firm on his own position.

For Shi Rong, he fought hard.

"My grandson understands."

As if seeing through what he was thinking, Huo Yan sighed deeply and stood up. He raised his hand and pointed it at Huo Jiuzhou's face, then gave him a harsh scolding.

"You will never repent! Since there are some things you still don't want to believe, then tonight I will let you see what kind of woman Shi Rong is! Does she need your wishful thinking and protection? Huo Jiuzhou, I'm telling you, don't think I don't know what you are thinking. You want to fight me for a woman? You are too naive! Remember, if the Huo family prospers, Shi Rong will live, and if the Huo family fails, Shi Rong will die. I, Huo Rong, will keep my word!"

After saying this, without waiting for the man's response, Huo Yan turned away.

Really can't accomplish anything!

Huo Jiuzhou understood what the old man said.

He was warning himself that if the entire Huo family was implicated because of his selfish desire for Shi Rong, it would only take a few minutes for him to kill Shi Rong.

"Boss, tonight's feast..."

Chu Yu had just asked a question when he saw the man, who had been bending towards the direction Huo Yan had left, slowly straighten up.

"Send more people."

Add more?

Chu Yu was simply stunned.

Maybe Huo Jiuzhou and Shi Rong have some kind of telepathy in common?

He was certain that the old man would not miss this Huo family banquet tonight, which would make Shi Rong embarrassed in front of everyone.
