[GB] Boss Ruan, your husband doesn't want you anymore.

As the two were sizing each other up, a woman walked in casually, interrupting their staring contest.

Huo Jingmo shifted his gaze to the woman walking in from outside and asked in a familiar tone, "Why are you here?"

Ruan Qian'an recognized this woman, but wasn't particularly familiar with her. She had seen this woman when she was a child, clinging to Huo Jingmo, but Huo Jingmo had intentionally kept her at arm's length, so they weren't very close.

All she knew was that this person was the same age as Huo Jingmo, was someone Huo Jingmo liked, and was a special person.

As expected, Huo Jingmo's expression was completely different when he saw this girl, unlike his cold and indifferent attitude towards Ruan Qian'an.

The woman's tone was unmistakably coquettish: "Do I need to report to your house to come here? I just happened to be bored and wanted to see your little fiancée."

The gaze directed at Ruan Qian'an seemed curious, but was actually filled with barely perceptible hostility.

Ruan Qian'an nodded and greeted, "Hello, Ruan Qian'an."

A very brief introduction.

The woman's smile grew brighter and brighter, as if she really liked Ruan Qian'an.

She excitedly approached Ruan Qian'an and eagerly tried to take her hand, but Ruan Qian'an turned away.

The woman showed no embarrassment and said normally, "Hello, little sister, I'm Huo Jingmo's friend. You're so pretty and soft-looking. If Huo Jingmo dares to bully you, you have to tell me, and I'll teach him a lesson for you."

As Ruan Qian'an watched the performance of the person in front of her, she thought that this person did not remember what she had done to her at all. In the past, when she clung to Huo Jingmo, this person pushed her into the pool with a blank expression. If she hadn't unleashed her potential and learned to swim at the critical moment of life and death, she would have drowned.

Ruan Qian'an smiled sweetly and said, "Okay, from now on I'll have to protect you, sister. By the way, I haven't asked you what your name is yet."

The woman said, "My name is Zheng Qing. You can call me Sister Qing from now on."

Ruan Qian'an nodded happily: "Sister Qing~"

Zheng Qing looked Ruan Qian'an up and down and said with concern, "Look at your clothes, come on, let's go buy you some clothes."

After saying that, he gave Huo Jingmo a reproachful look and said to him, "Look at how you treat Qian'an!"

Huo Jingmo said to Zheng Qing with a hint of helplessness, "Isn't it just so happens that you're here? Then you can take it with you."

Ruan Qian'an narrowed her eyes. She noticed that Huo Jingmo wasn't as wary of Zheng Qing, and was even somewhat relaxed. It seemed that Zheng Qing was someone close to Huo Jingmo.

Huo Jingmo handed Ruan Qian'an a black card and said, "Take this and have a good look around with Zheng Qing."

He said with a chuckle, as if he had thought of something amusing, "Don't think the Huo family has gone bankrupt."

Just as Ruan Qian'an was about to reach out and take it, a faster hand reached past her.

Zheng Qing's eyes lit up and she said casually, "Wow, Mr. Huo is so generous. I'll keep it safe for my sister."

Huo Jingmo smiled indifferently, knowing that Zheng Qing was just joking casually.

Ruan Qian'an's smile vanished for a moment, then a huge smile bloomed on her face. She walked over, picked up one side of the black card, and forcibly took it from her, saying, "Don't bother, sister. It would be troublesome if you lost it."

Zheng Qing awkwardly stuck out her tongue and said, "Qian'an, don't overthink it. I was just joking."

Huo Jingmo frowned and said to Ruan Qian'an, "Zheng Qing was just joking, don't take it to heart."

Ruan Qian'an couldn't maintain her smile and bent down to stare at Huo Jingmo: "?"

A chill ran through Huo Jingmo again. Before he could react, a hand pinched his cheek, leaving red marks on his fair face. Before he could react, the culprit said in an extremely innocent tone, "How is it petty of me to be so considerate of my sister?"

Her tone was gentle, and anyone who met Ruan Qian'an would have to say what an adorable little angel she was.

The person whose cheek was being pinched clearly didn't think that way. He slapped Ruan Qian'an's hand away, turned his wheelchair until he was several meters away from Ruan Qian'an, and then stopped. He rubbed the spot that Ruan Qian'an had touched with disgust and said, "Didn't I say...!"

Do not touch me!

But when he turned around and saw Zheng Qing there, he swallowed those four words and said instead, "No manners! And you say you're not petty." The change was too abrupt, making his tone somewhat ambiguous.

Ruan Qian'an looked at the person who had been humiliated with a smug expression, thinking to herself, "This is really funny."

Zheng Qing watched their interaction with a forced smile, then interrupted them, saying to Ruan Qian'an, "Yes, you're right. I didn't think it through. Let's go, I'll take you shopping first."

Ruan Qian'an turned to the person who had been ignored, and affectionately put her arm around Zheng Qing's arm, saying, "Okay, let's go, sister."

Zheng Qing had just been dodged, but now Ruan Qian'an had caught her off guard and grabbed her. Her disgust was unwittingly revealed on her face.

A sly glint flashed in Ruan Qian'an's eyes. She released her hand from Zheng Qing with a hurt expression and said in a wronged tone, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. My clothes are too simple. It's no wonder you dislike me, sister. It's all my fault."

Huo Jingmo looked at Zheng Qing with a stern gaze and asked in an icy tone, "Disdain?"

Zheng Qing suddenly snapped out of her daze and quickly laughed, "No, no, I was just daydreaming. What kind of person am I? I love being close to beautiful women, especially a beauty like Qian'an. Come on, come on, put your arm around me."

Ruan Qian'an listened with a smile to Zheng Qing's bewildered expression; Zheng Qing seemed quite afraid of Huo Jingmo.

Ruan Qian'an hugged Zheng Qing again and said sweetly, "Okay~"

The last syllable of his voice was drawn out. Huo Jingmo was puzzled as to why this person, who had been so aloof just moments before, was now so...sweet.

Once she got into the car, the smile on Zheng Qing's face vanished.

Of course, the smile on Ruan Qian'an's face also disappeared. Zheng Qing spoke up: "What? Not pretending anymore?"

Ruan Qian'an said expressionlessly in a sickeningly sweet tone, "Sister~ what are you talking about? I'm not pretending~"

Zheng Qing: "I came here to tell you, stop daydreaming about marrying into the Huo family!"

Ruan Qian'an: "How could that be? Our engagement was arranged long ago."

Zheng Qing gritted her teeth and said angrily, "You were the one who threatened to break off the engagement before, and now you're the one clinging to me! You'll be punished for breaking up other people like this. Do you really think the Huo family still wants to accept you? If it weren't for that senile old man saying he wanted to repay a debt of gratitude, you would have been dreaming if you hadn't entered the Huo family!"

Ruan Qian'an said calmly, "Even if it wasn't me, it wouldn't be yours."

Zheng Qing gripped the steering wheel, her face showing sadness: "If you hadn't interfered, I would have been with Huo Jingmo a long time ago!"

Ruan Qian'an murmured, "Is that so?"

She gazed at the scenery outside and said, "What a pity."

Zheng Qing asked, "What a pity? What's a pity?"

Ruan Qian'an: "It's a pity that I'm Huo Jingmo's fiancée now."

Zheng Qing was provoked: "You little bastard, you won't get married."

Then, as if thinking of something pleasant, she said sarcastically to Ruan Qian'an, "It's fine for you to know this. Huo Jingmo's leg is not broken at all. He deliberately released this news in order to get rid of the marriage agreement with your Ruan family. He has made such a great contribution to be with me. I will not be defeated by your words. Let you be smug for a while."

Ruan Qian'an gave a playful "oh".

"Huo Jingmo trusts you so much that he even tells you something like this."

Zheng Qing said smugly, "It wasn't him who told me; I overheard it by accident. He must have chosen to keep it from me because he was afraid I would worry."

Ruan Qian'an sighed, thinking that she really was Huo Jingmo's special existence, but it turned out that she was just a person with severe delusions.

Based on her understanding of Huo Jingmo, he was definitely not so love-struck as to do such a thing for a woman.

Then Ruan Qian'an lowered her head and thought, "Maybe it really is true."
