Chapter 1025: Chapter 1025: The Achievements of the Seductive Beauty Qin Xiaowu, Three Days and Nights Are Not Enough to Tell All

Huo Yunjiao’s gentle voice was like the caressing night wind, stirring the heart irresistibly.

In that instant, Qin Ruan felt as if her heart had been softly brushed by a feather.

Her eyes slightly lowered, her red lips lightly pursed.

To say she hadn’t thought of the other party as fake this past week would be inaccurate, though her thoughts were not of that kind.

She was curious about the mysteries surrounding Third Master but couldn’t figure them out, no matter how hard she tried.

After a long silence from her, Huo Yunjiao asked with a smile, "Why aren’t you speaking?"

Qin Ruan responded calmly, "Ayao and Anqi both miss you."

Her answer clearly avoided the question.

Huo Yunjiao didn’t want to let her off so easily and asked with a soft chuckle, "Does that include you too?"

"Hmm—"

Qin Ruan responded in an almost inaudible whisper.

Pleased with her affirmation, Huo Yunjiao cheerfully said, "I’m in Northern England, and I will be back in a few days."

Qin Ruan leaned back against the bedhead again, clutching the pillow of Third Master next to her, and casually said, "I saw the crowning ceremony of the queen of Fuluo Country in the trending news a couple of days ago, and I saw your sister-in-law there too."

At the time, Long Wei stood next to the queen, dressed in the royal attire of Fuluo Country.

Listening to her unemotional tone, Huo Yunjiao deliberately said, "Disappointed not to see me?"

Qin Ruan subconsciously retorted, "I wasn’t looking for you either."

Her response sounded more like an unintentional confession.

Huo Yunjiao’s pleased laughter echoed, though he said nothing, it conveyed something.

Qin Ruan belatedly realized that her reaction was like an eager confession.

Feeling her heart grow warm, she voiced a complaint, "I’m not talking to you anymore, I want to sleep."

Realizing she was actually getting annoyed, Huo Yunjiao quickly said, "I won’t tease you anymore, just wait before you sleep, I have something to tell you."

Qin Ruan asked, "What is it?"

Huo Yunjiao’s tone turned slightly serious, "Doctor Chen Hengfeng will do a health check-up on Song Qing tomorrow, and you should get one done too."

Qin Ruan frowned, "Why?"

"Your health isn’t great, you were weak and malnourished some time ago, and after giving birth to Ayao and Anqi, you lost weight too quickly. Let Doctor Chen give you a check-up, so I can rest assured."

Qin Ruan thought it was something serious and couldn’t help laughing and saying, "How can I compare now to when I was pregnant? Besides, that’s just my body type, I can’t put on weight."

Huo Yunjiao coaxed softly, "Just a simple check-up, Ruanruan, be good, don’t make me worry."

His tone was tender and slightly suggestive, filled with doting concern.

With such a powerful man, usually decisive and ruthless, speaking in such a gentle and persuasive manner, how could Qin Ruan resist?

She nodded, then realizing he couldn’t see her, she said aloud, "Alright."

Huo Yunjiao laughed, "Good, it’s very late back home, rest early."

"You too, take care of yourself."

"Don’t worry, I am fine."

Qin Ruan hung up the phone, slid down in bed, and flipped over, feeling inexplicably empty inside.

The next day.

Qin Ruan woke up early, and Huo Zhi informed her that Doctor Chen Hengfeng had arrived.

She then went through several tests and also had some blood drawn.

Qin Ruan didn’t dwell on this small episode, too distracted to care.

She received an emergency call from Li Zilan.

A group of people from the South Ocean had recently arrived in West City, conducting themselves ostentatiously and giving off a sinister vibe.

Normally, there was no trouble between them, but regrettably, these people had targeted Li Zilan.

As Jiang Liuliu presided over West City and because Li Zilan was her close friend, she had intervened once to mediate.

The Westerners had agreed verbally but had cornered Li Zilan last night, and Shen Ran and Su Wang were there too, with the three of them ending up badly beaten.

Upon hearing that her old friends had been bullied, Qin Ruan couldn’t stay put and immediately instructed Huo Zhi to prepare the car.

Huo Zhi stood quietly on the side, knowing Madam was going to seek revenge, promptly called the remaining elite subordinates of the Secret Guard Department.

They had just left, when Doctor Chen Hengfeng from the Huo Family’s private medical team carefully stored Qin Ruan’s blood samples.

He carried the medical box and hurried off to the Huo Family’s laboratory to personally conduct the tests.

As for Song Qing’s tests, Chen Hengfeng handed them over to other team members to handle.

...

The Huo Family’s fleet entered West City with a high profile.

Li Zilan informed Qin Ruan of the location, a newly renovated billiard hall.

Over a dozen luxury cars parked steadily in front of the billiard hall, drawing the attention of a large crowd around.

Among them, a few people with gleaming eyes sized up Qin Ruan as she descended from the car, recognizing her as the once notorious beauty known as Qin Xiaowu. Several quickly moved away from the crowd and turned to leave in different directions.

Facing the familiar crowd around her, Qin Ruan exuded a cool and crisp aura, her fierce and vicious eyes surveying the billiard hall before her.

The last time she was here, this place was a rundown internet cafe with aging machines, not a billiard hall.

Hearing the commotion outside, a group of slender people with a very strange aura emerged from the billiard hall.

The tall, thin man at the forefront, with a gloomy expression, stared at Qin Ruan standing at the entrance and demanded in a deep voice, "Who are you?!"

Qin Ruan, with one hand in her pocket, glared coldly at the crowd and lightly opened her red lips, "West City’s Qin Xiaowu."

Her decisive tone was laden with the danger of an impending storm.

The tall thin man’s sober expression turned to one of scorn, and he mocked, "You are Qin Xiaowu? I thought those three brought some reinforcements, but it’s just a little girl who hasn’t grown up yet!"

"Hahaha..."

His followers burst into loud laughter, all with faces of disdain.

These people had seen the luxury cars behind Qin Ruan and the Hidden Guards lined up in front of the cars under Huo Zhi’s command.

Yet they seemed fearless, showing no anxiety about the possibility of being outnumbered, as if they held an ace up their sleeve, paying no heed to their opponents.

Qin Ruan had sensed something off about their aura as soon as these people appeared.

Her dark eyes flashed with a golden light, clearly seeing a faint black mist entwined around these men.

It was the cold and evil Qi one would accrue from killing others, seeing blood, and being in prolonged contact with a body carrying extreme Yin and evil.

Qin Ruan could almost guess who was backing them.

The South Ocean had many magicians, among whom a group was neither reputable nor orthodox, but belonged to the depraved of the Evil Path.

Like the master and disciple duo she had killed last year, who originated from the Evil Path’s Yin Yang Sect.

Qin Ruan’s beautiful face turned cold as she formed an icy smile with her red lips, speaking in a chilling voice, "I heard you magicians come from the South Ocean?"

The tall thin man stiffened slightly at her direct exposure of their origins.

He demanded harshly, "Who are you?!"

Qin Ruan kept a stern face, her cold eyes fixed on him, "Are you deaf? My name and reputation haven’t changed; Qin Xiaowu. Ask anyone around here, who in West City doesn’t know me?"

The surrounding crowd, realizing they had a part in this, began to shout, "The ruthless beauty, Qin Xiaowu!"

"She’s the amazing woman whom even West City’s Lord Jiang Lui couldn’t defeat and vowed to protect!"

"Back in the day, Qin Xiaowu fought dozens of men in West City in a recurring battle. She barely won that battle but it also made her famous; nobody in West City doesn’t know of her!"

"Sister Xiaowu, you’ve made it big now, never thought you’d come back!"

Speaking of Qin Xiaowu’s past achievements could take these people three days and three nights without end.

Qin Ruan looked toward the vocal crowd, her features softened as she saw a few familiar faces, the coldness in her expression fading.

Her eyes and brows softened, and her delicate face broke into a faint smile, "This is the place I grew up, why wouldn’t I be welcomed back?"

Someone heckled, "Heard you’re now the daughter of a wealthy family, didn’t think you’d return to our slum."

Qin Ruan spoke gently, "Even though there are many unpleasant memories here, this place is still where I grew up, it’s my first home."

"Qin Xiaowu, since West City is your home, these people from the South Ocean are bullying us too much, won’t you handle it?!"

"Right! Even Lord Jiang Lui couldn’t deal with them, take this chance to drive them away, this is our turf, they have no right to push us around."

"Exactly, just a short while ago one of Jiang Lui’s men was thrown into the Back Sea by them, and his body floated up yesterday!"

"My family’s casino also suffered; these people refuse to pay their debts after losing money and even beat me up!"

The scene quickly turned into a collective grievance airing, with one after another airing their complaints, already discontent with these South Ocean people.

Qin Ruan felt helpless about this turn of events and, thinking of Li Zilan still inside, she whispered a few instructions to Huo Zhi who had come close to her.

The latter’s eyes flashed with surprise, but he nodded in agreement.

Qin Ruan, still worried, added, "Go, but don’t hurt them. Those who are out during the day are just trying to provide for their families; these people have it tough too."

Huo Zhi nodded solemnly, "Madam, rest assured."

Qin Ruan hummed in response, then began walking towards the South Ocean men led by the tall thin man, rolling up her sleeves as she went, "I’m not going to waste words with you. Are you going to let me in, or do I have to force my way?"

Her voice was low and, coupled with her beautifully cold face, it was irresistibly captivating, stirring a desire to conquer.
