Chapter 376: The Arrogant and Rich Family + the Silent and Abstinent Bodyguard 22
When the news came that Mr. and Mrs. Xu were discharged from the hospital, many noble families sent their greetings. Whether it was because of the situation or out of genuine concern, the interests of each family were related, so they had to get along on the surface.
After dealing with the last wave of guests, Xu's mother looked tired. The three of them chatted for a while and then went back to their room to rest. Ruan Ruan was about to go upstairs with them but was stopped by Xu's father.
"Ruanruan, thank you for your hard work in the company during this period. You have done a great job. I never thought of letting you take on such a heavy burden before, but since you have this talent, are you interested in helping dad?"
Ruan Ruan waved her hands repeatedly. She didn't want to work hard at all. "No, no, no, Dad, you are in your prime, why do you need my help? You are at the age of making breakthroughs now!"
Father Xu was so amused that he laughed out loud: "Never mind, you are the best at being lazy."
Father Xu was reluctant to force his child. He only had one daughter, and all the family assets were for her to do what she wanted. Even if Ruan Ruan had no talent in this area, according to his previous plan, he would hire a professional financial management team, and his daughter only needed to enjoy the world.
"But I have a suitable candidate to recommend."
Ruan Ruan sat beside him, narrowed her eyes, and smiled like a little fox, "How about I find you a son-in-law? You teach him, and then you'll have someone to help you share the burden."
Father Xu's eyelids twitched. "Are you talking about that useless guy from the Song family?"
He had heard that his daughter was close to the playboy of the Song family at school. At that time, he thought that the child was grown up and would have her own experiences, so he asked someone to keep an eye on her secretly and make sure nothing serious happened.
I didn't expect my daughter to be deceived to this extent? !
Just when Xu's father was filled with regret, Ruan Ruan recalled from the corner of her memory the playboy from the Song family, Song Zhe, whom her original self had liked in college.
Song Zhe, a prominent figure on campus, is seen by Ruan Ruan as a lazy playboy who likes to wander around.
Seeing Ruan Ruan shook her head, Father Xu felt relieved and asked again: "Is that the boy from the Ji family?"
Although the boy surnamed Ji was good-looking and had known Ruan Ruan since childhood, and their family backgrounds were compatible, it was a pity that the Ji family was a family. Large families valued interests the most, and the younger generation of the Ji family was constantly fighting among themselves, which was complicated.
Although Xu's father admired Ji Huaichuan, he was not the candidate for son-in-law in his mind.
"The Ji family is not a good choice." Without waiting for Ruan Ruan to answer, he quickly explained, "That boy is excellent, but the Ji family is not suitable for you. Besides, the Ji family is fighting for power to a white-hot stage. Letting him participate in the business of my Xu family will involve too many things."
"Ruanruan, you have to believe in dad. When choosing a partner, you should not only look at the individual, but also consider his family."
Father Xu spoke earnestly and sighed, "Your mother and I don't necessarily require you to find a man from an aristocratic family. It's totally fine for you to find someone you like, but you must protect yourself and remember to bring yourself to see your parents when necessary, okay?"
Ruan Ruan: "Dad, are you sure?"
Father Xu's eyelids were twitching wildly. He couldn't explain why he suddenly had a bad feeling. He thought carefully about what he had said, but when he couldn't find any problem, he nodded.
"Okay, I know."
Ruan Ruan said this and went upstairs.
Just as Father Xu felt relieved, he saw Butler Zhao staring at him with a distorted expression and a sad face.
After the gentleman and the lady came back, there were too many things to do, and the company also had a lot of things to deal with. Butler Zhao never found a chance to explain the matter between the young lady and Huo Zhao.
Butler Zhao: It should be not too late to tell us now, right?
When Ruan Ruan passed by Huo Zhao's room, she stopped with a frown.
At this moment, the door of the room was ajar, and the sound of a girl crying and the sound of electric current stuttering could be heard faintly from inside.
"...I beg you...can you lend me some more money? I really need money now...wuwuwu..."
Huo Zhao said in a low voice, "I already lent it to you last time."
"...but...I don't have a job anymore. You're at the Xu family. Can you please ask Miss Xu for me? I can do any job...wuwu...considering that I helped you before...I really have no other choice..."
……
Thanks to the cheap mobile phone that Huo Zhaotu bought, she was able to hear clearly because of the huge sound leakage.
Ruan Ruan held her chin up and thought. It seemed that Huo Zhao received his salary just to lend money to the girl on the other end of the phone, and he seemed to owe her some kind of favor.
Huo Zhao grew up in an orphanage, so the other party was definitely not his relative.
Ruan Ruan asked silently in her heart: "66, who is on the other end of the phone?"
66: "It cannot be disclosed. The host needs to check it himself."
really.
Ruan Ruan sneered silently. The system had not revealed the people related to Huo Zhao before. There must be something going on here.
She sent a micro message to Secretary Li, asking someone to look up information about Huo Zhao, and also took this opportunity to let Father Xu be mentally prepared.
Seeing that the host didn't speak, 66 was a little flustered, but he didn't dare to ask, so he had to curl up into a small ball and hide in the corner. It wasn't that he didn't cooperate, but he was constrained by the rules of the master, and he could only act according to the rules, hoping that when the truth came out, the punishment of the host could be lighter.
But, it will be soon...
While Ruan Ruan went back to her room to rest, Huo Zhao took a taxi to an old residential area.
Lin Qianqian was wearing a white dress under the street light. The warm light reflected the tear marks on her face. Her red eyes made her pretty face look even more pitiful.
Unfortunately, the person standing opposite was Huo Zhao. He said in a cold tone, "We have already settled the money from last time."
Lin Qianqian's lips moved slightly, and she whispered, "Huo Zhao, you...you really don't trust me that much? I was a part-time worker at the last banquet, and you know I need money for school. And about the glass of wine you asked me about last time, I'm sorry I didn't know. Did you feel uncomfortable after drinking it? Are you allergic? I really don't know. I thought the wine looked expensive, and I thought it was something good, so I wanted to give it to you to try, so I..."
The more she spoke, the more excited she became, and it seemed as if tears would burst out at any second. Huo Zhao dodged her hand and examined her face with dark eyes.
"Why did you want to enter the Xu family?"
Lin Qianqian was flustered by being looked at. She lowered her eyes with trembling eyelashes. "I, I just think it will be easier to enter the Xu family with your recommendation. Besides, the Xu family treats me very well, and I also need money."
In fact, Huo Zhao had a very handsome face, and Lin Qianqian had thought about taking him down.
Unfortunately, Huo Zhao is just a good-looking wooden lump. She had flirted with him countless times, but he asked her if there was something wrong with her eyes.
And the last banquet was all because of that bitch named Zhu, who ruined her good thing.
Lin Qianqian was very upset. She must not make any mistakes this time. She must enter the Xu family.
After not hearing the man's answer for a long time, Lin Qianqian's heart began to beat fast. She begged, "For the last time, can you help me for the last time? From now on, we owe each other nothing. This time, it's for real."
