The boss is chasing after the chaebol’s ex-wife, but you can’t afford it

"Eldest brother, second uncle."

Huo Zhaozhao stopped in front of them and showed a sweet smile.

Put on a good show.

"Oh, isn't this Zhao Zhao? How is your health?" Huo Pengcheng asked pretending to be concerned.

"Much better, thank you for your concern, uncle."

"As long as it's okay, you are the treasure of our Huo family. If you want to be good, it will kill your grandfather and your mother!" Huo Pengcheng said this to Huo Ruxi.

Immediately, he gave Huo Zhaozhao an intriguing look, hummed a little tune and left first.

"What are you doing here?" Huo Ruxi stared at her with a gloomy and cold gaze.

"I made the ginseng tea myself and brought it to grandpa to drink while it was still hot."

Huo Zhaozhao blinked his big innocent eyes, "Brother, you won't even give me the chance to be filial to grandpa, right?"

Huo Ruxi narrowed her deep and cold eyes, slowly raised her hand, and pointed her fingertips at her face with great pressure.

Although the man didn't say a word, Huo Zhaozhao was still frightened so much that his heart beat wildly and his hand holding the tray was trembling faintly.

"Huo Zhaozhao, I'm warning you, don't play tricks. Otherwise, I will pluck out your confusing tongue and cut off your dog legs.

If you don't believe me, just try it. "

As soon as the sound fell, Huo Ruxi knocked her away and left with a quick stride.

Huo Zhaozhao stared at the man's seemingly unshakable tall back and gritted his teeth viciously:

"Heh, let's try it then!"

Then, she put away her gloomy expression and put on a gentle and obedient smile and walked into the study.

"Grandpa, I'm here to see you!"

Seeing his granddaughter, Huo Zhuoqun temporarily swept away the gloom in his eyes and smiled kindly, "Zhaozhao is here."

"Grandpa, this is the ginseng soup I made specially for you. I have been cooking it for a whole day."

Huo Zhaozhao put the tray on the coffee table, picked up the soup bowl and brought it to Mr. Huo, "This soup is the most common to drink when you are in a bad mood. It is the most nourishing to the body and calms the mind. Grandpa, please try it. .”

"Zhaozhao, how did you know I was in a bad mood?" Huo Zhuoqun took a spoonful of soup and put it into his mouth. Sure enough, his chest was not so blocked.

"Eldest brother just came to see you. When I came in, I saw you looking solemn. There was an invitation on the table. Is it from eldest brother and Miss Shen Si?"

Huo Zhaozhao half-smiled, "It seems like good things are coming soon?"

"A good thing? What kind of good thing is this!"

Huo Zhuoqun put down the soup bowl heavily, blowing his beard and glaring in anger, "I only have one grandson, Ruxi, but I am toyed with by that girl from the Shen family! I am so fascinated by her that I am dizzy!"

Just as a gift, Ruxi gave the girl most of her wealth. Giving it to her was equivalent to giving it to the Shen family. Didn't he think about the consequences of doing this? !

They will get married in the future. I have seen that within a few years, the entire Huo family will have the surname Shen! "

"Grandpa, isn't that true? I know you are worried about this matter."

Huo Zhaozhao sighed helplessly, "Actually, there is one more thing that I haven't told you. I'm afraid that if you find out, you will feel even more uncomfortable."

"After all this, what else can't I endure? But it doesn't matter!"

Huo Zhaozhao sneered in his heart, turned around, walked to the coffee table, and pulled out a document from under the tray.

"Grandpa, look at this."

Huo Zhuoqun took it doubtfully, opened it and read it roughly.

Immediately, his eyes widened with anger and he looked at the diagnosis report on the paper in disbelief. What was clearly written on it was Shen Chulu's name!

"That girl from the Shen family...has a mental problem?!"

"Yes, Grandpa."

Huo Zhaozhao's eyes flashed with a sinister cold light, "She, and the entire Shen family, have been hiding Shen Chulu's condition from you. In fact, she has severe autism. To put it bluntly, she is mentally ill.

She and I were classmates in junior high school. At that time, other classmates in the class secretly called her a fool and an idiot. She dropped out of college before finishing college, also because she had this disease. "

"No wonder...no wonder every time I see that girl, I always think there is something strange about her. She is twenty-one or twelve years old but has the mind of a child. It turns out there is something wrong with her brain!

What Qin Shu left behind was indeed a bad seed! She died but she still left her mentally retarded daughter to harm my precious grandson! Cough cough cough cough…”

Huo Zhuoqun was so angry that he felt bad all over. He kept coughing and his old face turned red.

Huo Zhaozhao hurriedly patted his back, "Grandpa, calm down, your health is important!"

"Does your elder brother... know that girl has this disease?"

"Brother knows everything."

Mr. Huo was even more furious and even puzzled, "He knows, but he still wants to marry?! He is crazy! Isn't he afraid that the child he will give birth to will also be mentally ill?!

I really don’t understand... I, the grandson of Huo Zhuoqun, can’t get any kind of woman, so why do I fall in love with a fool? ! "

"Brother, I was deceived by Shen Chulu's innocent look. He ate too much delicacies from the mountains and seas. Occasionally he had a bite of porridge and side dishes, and naturally he couldn't stop." Huo Zhaozhao's tone revealed a hint of disdain.

Huo Zhuoqun's eyes were red with hatred, and he kept patting the armrest of the sofa, "The Shen family is a liar! They want to stuff an unwanted daughter into our Huo family... They are dreaming!

I will never let that girl in for a day while I'm here! I will go see Shen Nanhuai early tomorrow morning and cancel this marriage! "

"Grandpa, it's inappropriate for you to do this."

Huo Zhaozhao knelt on one knee at the old man's feet, held his hand that was shaking with anger and comforted him in his palm, "If you go to see Mr. Shen rashly, the news will reach the ears of the elder brother immediately.

You know the temperament of Big Brother, and he will definitely cause an uproar when the time comes. He is also on good terms with Mr. Shen, and his heart is toward outsiders. In the end, it is us who will suffer. "

"My dear granddaughter, you are still considerate and sensible!"

Huo Zhuoqun gradually calmed down and asked anxiously, "Then give me some advice for grandpa, how to solve this matter?"

"Well, Shen Chulu and I have a friendship as classmates after all. I'll find a time to meet and talk to her."

Huo Zhaozhao spoke softly, with a charitable face, "I'll tell you with reason and move with emotion. I hope I can convince her to stop pestering my elder brother. They won't have a future."

Huo Zhuoqun thought of his crazy grandson and couldn't help but worry, "What if you can't persuade that girl?"

"Then use the second method, which is a bit cruel and a bit cruel. However, it can make them completely cut off."

The corners of Huo Zhaozhao's lips curved in a strange way, "Just wait and see."

After a short recuperation, Shen Chulu resumed her normal study life.

The school has experienced so much crisis and turmoil, but in an orderly environment, it seems that no matter how big the storm is, it will calm down quickly.

The surveillance was deleted, and no one else was present at the time of the incident. Due to the pressure from Huo, the school also kept secret about Shen Chu's identity and the fact that she was taken hostage.

Shen Chulu can have a peaceful life because brother Ruxi single-handedly created it for her.

If possible, Huo Ruxi really wanted to build a pure and flawless ivory tower to hide and protect his girl like a delicate flower in a greenhouse.

But what he didn't know was——

The conversation that Shen Chulu overheard outside the study that night shocked her, like a barely noticeable crack on the glass wall of the greenhouse.

Maybe, that's it, that's it.

It may also spread slowly and gradually, like an overwhelming spider web, eventually covering the entire greenhouse and falling apart.

A Yuan accompanies her every day and looks at her like eyes.

Shen Chulu learned to disguise, and when she returned home, she locked herself in the studio and painted seriously without showing her emotions.

A Yuan didn't notice anything strange about her.

If there was something different about the little lady, it would be her paintings. The colors were getting darker and darker, making it increasingly difficult for her to understand.

Shen Chulu heard that Huo Ruxi was going back to her home to see Mr. Huo tonight. She felt uneasy, so she painted in the studio while waiting for him to come home.

But she waited and waited and didn't wait. Finally, she was so tired that she couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep in the pile of paint.

It was already early morning when Huo Ruxi rushed back after a long journey.

Seeing his little wife lying limply on the table, with colorful paint covering her body and face like a little cat, the corners of his eyes and eyebrows were dyed with a doting smile.

"Master, why did you come back just now? Let Madam wait."

A Yuan asked worriedly, "It's about the engagement. Did you not have a pleasant conversation with the old man?"

"Grandpa agreed and let me make the arrangements myself." Huo Ruxi stood at the door, staring deeply at the sleeping girl, her eyes filled with love.

A Yuan was excited, "Really?!"

Huo Ruxi put her finger between her lips, indicating for her to speak softer, "Yeah. After I left my home, I went to the Falling Star Studio in Haimen. I heard that there were some good ingredients sold there in the past two days and they made a few things. Good stuff. I was afraid that someone would snatch it away too late, so I hurried over to see if I could find two gadgets suitable for debutantes.

I am free today, but I will be busy with other things tomorrow. Let's just get everything done today. "

A Yuan couldn't help feeling sad, her voice was hoarse, "You've worked really hard."

"It's okay, it will get better slowly."

With that said, Huo Ruxi took out a slender box from her arms and opened it in front of A Yuan.

Lying quietly inside is a finely carved and fluorescent white ice jade hairpin.

A Yuan stared in surprise and was deeply attracted.

You can tell at a glance how precious it is.

"It's so beautiful...it suits you so well, Madam."

"My little princess, how can she always use a pencil to tie her hair? Such a precious hairpin is suitable for her." Huo Ruxi's eyes were soft and starry.

A Yuan nodded with deep understanding.

"Oh, and also."

Huo Ruxi took out another box from her coat pocket and handed it to her, "This is for you."

A Yuan looked stunned, took it hesitantly, and opened it.

Inside the box is a green jadeite pendant. The rich color adds a sense of calmness and elegance accumulated over time.

"Jade Guanyin, stay safe." Huo Ruxi said softly.

"This, this is too valuable, I can't accept it!"

A Yuan's hand holding the box trembled violently, and she hurriedly wanted to move back, but Huo Ruxi pushed it back into her hand.

"Isn't it your birthday in a few days? This is your birthday gift. Accept it. My wife and I gave it to you together."

Speaking of this, A Yuan had no choice but to accept it, and there was a lump in her throat:

"Thank you, thank you ma'am..."

"I don't know if I have time to come back to celebrate your birthday. I wish you a happy birthday in advance, A Yuan."

After the sound fell, Huo Ruxi walked gently into the room and walked towards the person he loved.

A Yuan's red eyes were filled with tears, and she clenched the pendant tightly in her palms and pressed it to her heart.
