After a long night of talking, Yu Ruanyuan felt that she had never been so close to a man's soul.
In the past, Huo Xu seemed to be tolerant and affectionate in front of her, but Yu Ruanruan knew very well that he was actually defensive in his heart.
This defensiveness does not mean that his intentions towards him are not pure.
Maybe to a greater extent, it comes from the attachment of gains and losses, right?
Just like her.
Because I am afraid that my bad side will not be accepted and I am afraid that I will be abandoned, I just want to show my good side.
It was probably today that she mustered up the courage to tell Huo Xu the secret that had been hidden for many years, so the man revealed the dark side of his heart and told her without reservation.
It turns out that they are really similar.
With this rare sense of security and contentment, Yu Ruanruan and Huo Xu slept in each other's arms all night until dawn.
Early the next morning, there was noise in the corridor outside the hotel.
When Yu Ruanruan was woken up, Huo Xu had already gotten up and dressed up. Under her comfort and healing last night, he had already taken off all his defenses.
But at this moment, the man's face looked extremely cold.
Yu Ruanruan rubbed her sleepy eyes, sat up holding the quilt, and looked at him strangely, "What's wrong? What's the noise outside?"
Seeing that she was awake, Huo Xu looked down at her and his eyes softened a bit. He pursed his lips slightly and said, "I'll go out for a while and take care of some things. You stay in the room."
After saying that, he raised his hand and rubbed the girl's hair, then walked out of the hotel room.
Yu Ruanruan felt a little worried when she saw this, so she hurriedly changed her clothes and followed her out.
In the corridor, Li Jian was pushed to the ground by several bodyguards brought by Huo Xu, and he cursed like crazy, "Huo Xu, you have to die! Don't think that you can get away with it just because the police acquitted you."
!Give my mother her life back."
Huo Xu calmly buttoned his suit, half rolled up his cuffs, and said to his assistant expressionlessly, "Have you called the police?"
"Reported."
"He attempted to injure someone. Please hire the best lawyer and send him to jail for a few months."
"yes."
Zhang Mian winked at several bodyguards, and Li Jian was soon dragged away.
Listening to Li Jian's screams and insults gradually receding, Huo Xu took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and said, "Have you taken a look at the house I asked you to look at before? The security of this hotel is too poor.
Yes, in order to prevent the Qin family from sneaking in again, please hurry up and put the house in place."
"Master, I have helped you purchase a villa in Binhai, in a suburb not far from Miss Yu's school. The contract will be signed this morning. If you are in a hurry, you can move in in the afternoon."
"Well, let's do it."
When Yu Ruoruan came out of the room, she saw that the corridor had returned to silence.
When she heard Huo Xu say that she was moving to a villa in the afternoon, she was a little surprised, but soon she understood what had happened.
The Qin family is making trouble again.
"are you OK?"
Yu Ruoruan pulled the man's arm worriedly. Huo Xu came back to her senses and smiled at her, "I'm fine. The murderer is not me. No matter how much trouble they make, they can't do anything to me."
When he said this, his face was very cold.
But Yu Ruoruan knew that indifference was just his appearance. Being misunderstood and insulted by others was not a good experience no matter what.
This kind of indifference is not true ignorance, but an attempt to close oneself, numb oneself, and not feel the pain.
In fact, I care in my heart.
"Huo Xu, I asked for a few days off from school." Yu Ruanruan suddenly said for no reason.
Huo Xu felt sick and hurriedly looked at her hand wrapped in gauze, "What's wrong? You still feel very uncomfortable?"
"I want to catch the murderer for you."
When Huo Xu heard this, his expression changed. He looked around, paying special attention to the surveillance cameras in the corridor, and then pulled Yu Ruanruan back to the hotel room.
After closing the door, the man looked at her seriously, "Will catching the murderer arouse Cang Lang's suspicion?"
Both of them talked about a lot of their own things last night, but because the conversation was quite deep and the time was too late, the details were not explained very clearly.
Huo Xu only knew that Ruanruan and her adoptive mother, who was also a member of Canglang, had defected from the organization. Now their identities were exposed and they were being targeted.
And yesterday, she tricked him into going to school to find her, which was the task given to her by Canglang.
Huo Xu didn't blame her for lying to him, he was just worried that she would do something self-destructive again.
"Won't."
Yu Ruanruan said, "I have already thought of a response plan. From the moment I abide by the agreement and complete the task, but they secretly set up traps and mines, we are destined to be the right side."
"Oh, can terrorist organizations still be reasonable?" Huo Xu couldn't help laughing.
Yu Ruoruan said seriously, "It is true that gangsters cannot be reasonable. That is from the perspective of the victim and the exploited, but what if you change your perspective?"
Huo Xu was startled.
He is a businessman and has been in the business world for many years. He is naturally shrewd at heart, so Yu Ruanruan's reminder quickly opened up his mind.
After thinking about it, he couldn't help but smile knowingly, and looked at the girl with a hint of surprise and appreciation.
I didn't expect this girl to be so smart!
From the perspective of the victim, the gangster is extremely vicious and cannot be reasoned with. This is indeed how the weak think.
But as long as you change your perspective and stand in the shoes of a partner, everything will be completely different.
Because they are afraid of your background and want to get the benefits you bring.
When the benefits you can bring to them are large enough, the unreasonable gangsters will become reasonable.
Any team is collaborative and symbiotic.
Terrorist organizations are no exception.
This is the thinking of the strong.
When Yu Ruoruan saw his silent but knowing smile, she knew that he had figured it out.
She continued, "The case must be solved. Not only must it be solved, we must also bring the murderer to justice. Moreover, by doing so, we can also make Canglang speechless and have no choice but to compromise with us. But this matter
Your cooperation is needed. From beginning to end, you must pretend not to know. You must not tell any third party about today’s matter except you and me."
"My job is to keep secrets?"
"Of course there are more." Yu Ruanruan raised her eyes and smiled at him, "You still have the biggest task."
The girl's smile gave her a sense of déjà vu. Huo Xu was attracted by the moving expression in her beautiful eyes, as if his soul had been sucked away by her. He looked straight at her and asked, "What do I need to do?"
"Well, it's something you're best at."
Yu Ruanruan gave up a little, but didn't delay for too long before revealing the mystery, "You just need to continue to love me, love me, and risk everything for me, including your life."
."
The girl raised her head and stepped on her feet, looking at him. When she said this, she reached out and grabbed his tie. With a slight exertion, Huo Xu was bent down by her.
His eyes collided with hers, and his heartbeat accelerated inexplicably.
For a moment, I didn't really understand the meaning behind her words.
His Adam's apple rolled, and he stared at her blankly, uttering hoarse words from his thin lips, "Just...that simple?"
