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

"understood."

Shen Jingjue hung up the phone, his handsome face was as gloomy as the sky before a rainstorm, "At this sensitive moment, Shen Bailu had to go over to meet Huo Zhaozhao in the middle of the night. Isn't it enough to explain that the leak of Chulu's diagnosis report had nothing to do with her? Doesn’t it mean that they have already been in cahoots with each other?"

Huo Ruxi's scarlet eyes widened, and her fist with bulging veins hit the bed hard, with such force that it almost shattered the entire bed!

"Your sister, I'm afraid, has secretly joined forces with Huo Pengcheng, and has even communicated with Mr. Huo in private. Otherwise, the whole plan would not have been so timely and would not have progressed so smoothly. I'm afraid they have been planning it for a long time."

Huo Ruxi suddenly remembered that when she went to deliver the engagement invitation to Huo Zhuoqun that night, she bumped into Huo Zhaozhao who was delivering ginseng tea.

Huo Zhaozhao had never been so diligent before.

Looking back now, I feel like I was showing my courtesy for nothing—either adultery or thief!

"She is not my sister." Huo Ruxi repeated this sentence over and over again with red eyes.

Every time he repeated it, Huo Zhaozhao was torn into pieces in his chest filled with hatred.

"But she is your grandfather and your mother's favorite child. She is written in your Huo family tree. She is your father's biological daughter."

Shen Jingjue pressed his trembling shoulders heavily, "And no matter how accurate our inference is, if there is no concrete evidence and we cannot kill the enemy with one blow, all your actions will be used as a basis for them to fight back against you in the future."

This sentence is what Qiaoer often says to him.

At this moment, he also told his best brother.

"Don't think that you can rest easy once you become the president. They will always have ways to pull you down and even prevent you from interfering in the affairs of the Huo Group. Don't hand a knife to them.

Revenge never happens overnight, and what Huo Zhaozhao did this time actually went deep into Mr. Huo's heart. If you attack her, you may get burned. "

Shen Jingjue's cold eyes were lowered, and his slightly hoarse voice revealed a fierceness, "As for Shen Bailu, I will handle it."

"But... what's the difference between Shen Bailu and Huo Zhaozhao?"

Huo Ruxi grabbed his arm with anxious eyes, "If you deal with Shen Bailu, Director Shen will think that you have ruined Shen's face, so he will also take the opportunity to suppress you and embarrass you!"

"Don't worry, I have a solution."

Shen Jingjue curled his lips slightly and said, "I miss my wife, there is a better way."

When Shen Jingjue returned to Juyue Bay, night had fallen.

As soon as they entered the door, Secretary Xu and Tang Qiaoer came up to them and said that Shen Chulu had woken up.

"Chu Lu, are you okay?" Shen Jingjue hurriedly hugged the little woman's waist, his expression full of concern.

Tang Qiaoer sighed and shook her head, gently rubbing his cold hands, "It's not good. Grandpa stayed with her for a while, but the old lady didn't feel well and went back to her room to rest. A Yuan is accompanying her now.

Where is Ruxi? Are you ok? "

"I sent him to the hospital, and he developed a high fever from the cold. Fortunately, his health was not bad and he was able to resist."

Tang Qiaoer lowered her long eyelashes.

These two good brothers are both infatuated.

"Qiao'er, come with me."

Shen Jingjue squeezed her soft bare hands, his eyebrows solemn, "I have something to discuss with you."

……

in the room.

Shen Chulu threw herself into A Yuan's arms, her hot tears soaking into A Yuan's black suit.

"Madam, you see, I am not fine. Nothing is wrong with me."

A Yuan hugged the girl tightly, her tone was relaxed, but her eyes were covered with a layer of crystal tears, "Those people just want to scare you, it's okay, it's all over...

This kind of thing will never happen again in the future. From now on... there are good days waiting for you and the young master. "

"Brother Ruxi and I... will there be a future?" Shen Chulu suddenly asked quietly.

A Yuan's heart tightened and she quickly said: "Madam, don't think too much. This matter is not a big trouble. Mr. Huo, Mr. Shen, and Miss Tang will definitely handle it properly and everything will be restored to its original state!"

"Sister A Yuan... I'm not stupid. I know the reason why all this happened. It's all because... the people in the Huo family don't want me to be with brother Ruxi."

Shen Chulu's trembling eyelashes were covered with tears, which was particularly heartbreaking to see. "This time... those people hurt your left leg and kidnapped you, just a small deterrent. Next time... they will want you." of life.

The Huo family will not accept me like this. Brother Ruxi forcing me to stay with him... will only harm him. "

"Madam! Don't think so!"

A Yuan kept shaking her head, her eyes red with panic, "You are the only motivation for the young master to live! If the young master loses you, what's the point of living for him? What's the point of fighting for power?!"

"My existence... will only cause him constant trouble. He has to spend a lot of energy taking care of me, and he has long been unable to do so."

At this moment, Shen Chulu lost her usual childlike ignorance, her mind was clear, and her logic was clear. It was as if she had experienced this disaster and was forced to grow up faster. "I'm not like my sister-in-law. I can help my second brother a lot. I can do everything." It can't help him, it will only hinder him.

And...it will only make you, Sister Ayuan, face more terrible dangers again. You are not a subordinate, not a bodyguard... you are my sister, a very important person to me.

From the beginning, I said...I don't deserve his love.

Brother Ruxi is suitable for a better person. "

"Madam... I beg you, don't give up on the young master, please..." A Yuan was clumsy and her eyes were filled with tears.

Perhaps Shen Chulu had known Huo's attitude a long time ago and how difficult it was for Huo Ruxi to protect her from the wind and rain outside.

Today's crisis was just the last straw for her.

"I know everything Brother Ruxi has done for me. If he continues like this, he will lose control sooner or later."

Shen Chulu slowly closed her sore eyes.

The memory returned to her grandfather's birthday banquet, the scene where she was alone with Huo Ruxi for the first time in the garden filled with bright moonlight.

At that time, Ruxi's brother's eyes were so bright that thousands of stars couldn't match them.

But those dazzling phoenix eyes seemed to have been covered with an invisible layer of dust and a lingering sadness for some time.

She was immersed in the warm memories and smiled softly, with bitter tears flowing out of her eyes.

"I want brother Ruxi... to return to his original self. I just want him to move forward boldly without any scruples."
