Chapter 30 Huo Ci’s Hesitation

Huo Ru was thrown into the room. Two bodyguards in sunglasses and a maid stared at her intently, they didn’t even give her a chance to escape.

This couldn’t go on. She had to find an excuse to send these people away.

She made the few of them go around in circles. She wanted to drink water, eat, and read.

Although they were ordered to guard her, they all knew that this was a thankless job. No matter how angry they were with each other, they were still father and daughter. There was no overnight hatred. If they treated Miss Huo badly and she turned around to complain, they would not be able to bear the consequences. Therefore, they did not dare to go overboard and tried their best to satisfy Huo Ru’s request.

“Call my father over and say that I’ve thought it through, but I have a condition.” After eating and drinking, Huo Ru asked to see Huo Ci.

When Huo Ci heard this news, he was stunned for a moment. It was obvious how stubborn Huo Ru was from how she insisted on entering the entertainment industry despite the opposition of her entire family. Why did she give in so quickly this time? “Old Huo, go take a look. Xiao Ru might really have regretted it.” Jiang Li held Huo Ci’s arm and said gently, “She’s used to being wild outside, so she can’t accept it for a moment. We have no choice but to do this. Now that she’s willing to marry over, it means that she’s thought it through. Talk to her more, it’s better for her to marry over happily than to be tied up.”

“Making her marry someone is really like forcing her to die. She’s crazy all day long, do you want me to coax her?” Huo Ci said angrily. “It’s really too undisciplined for her to negotiate with me. She’s not like Xiao Yun at all.”

“You too. Don’t be angry, it’s not good for your health. If she marries the Third Master and has pillow talk with him, do you think we’ll be allies or enemies?” Jiang Li advised.

As long as Huo Ci could ensure the development of the Huo family under the Yun family, he would not have gone through so much trouble to tie Huo Ru up and force her to marry him. In fact, the Huo family had no choice but to board the Yun family’s ship. “Okay, I’ll go take a look,” he finally said.

Jiang Li heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s good. Old Huo, I really shouldn’t have said anything about this. After all, it’s me and Xiao Yun’s fault for causing a series of trouble.”

“What do you have to blame yourself for? You’ve already treated her well enough! Xiao Yun has always been tolerant, it was her biological mother and grandmother who doted on her.” It was fine if she didn’t mention it, but once she did, Huo Ci’s face darkened.

Jiang Li knew Huo Ci too well. At this moment, Huo Ci would miss her and her daughter a little when he went to negotiate terms. Even if Huo Ru asked for shares, he wouldn’t give her too much and would compensate from other sources instead.

When Huo Ci saw Huo Ru, she was lying on a recliner eating grapes. When she saw him enter, she didn’t stand up.

“Dad…”

“Tell me, what condition do I have to agree to for you to be willing to marry over?”

“I want what Huo Yun has.” Huo Ru looked steadily into Huo Ci’s eyes, trying to find any trace of weakness in them, but Huo Ci’s heart was harder than a rock.

“What are you talking about? Don’t you have enough shares?” When Huo Ci heard this condition, he thought of Jiang Li’s words and rejected it.

“You’ve been like this since Mom passed away and you married Jiang Li.” Huo Ru was indeed a professional actress, her tears fell as she spoke. “No matter what I do, you have to deny it, but you don’t care about me at all. You only care about Huo Yun…”

Her cries stunned Huo Ci. Huo Ru used to be obedient and cute, but after her birth mother passed away, her personality changed drastically. She went against him everywhere, this was her way of attracting her father’s attention.

Thinking about it carefully, Huo Ru rarely made any requests over the years. The first time was when she entered the entertainment industry, and the second time was when she did not marry Zhou Dong. This was the third time.

For once, Huo Ci wavered, but Huo Ru understood that none of this was enough to convince him of her change.

“Daddy, it’s been so many years. I’ve been waiting for you to see me…” Huo Ru wiped the tears off her face.” Didn’t you want me to marry over? Fine, I’ll marry over!”.

“Ru Ru…” Huo Ci’s attitude clearly softened.

“There’s no need to say anything, Daddy. Take this as my last repayment to you and the Huo family. I won’t have any extravagant hopes in the future…” Her move of retreating in order to advance had indeed made Huo Ci believe that she was serious.

He gritted his teeth and said, “Daddy agrees to your conditions.”
