Chapter 1103: Chapter 1103: When the Sun Sets, Josh Is Certain to Die

Qin Ruan, lying on the sofa in the hall, let out a light sigh, dispelling the worries in her mind, and began to close her eyes to rest.

The sound of footsteps emerged, seeming to come from outside the door.

Qin Ruan didn’t open her eyes, and casually reached into the fruit bowl on the table to grab a cherry and put it in her mouth, the sour and sweet flavor quite appetizing.

"Madam, the Young Master has had an accident,"

Huo Zhi approached her, his tone solemn.

Qin Ruan, with the fruit in her mouth, furrowed her brows lightly. She opened her eyes, looking puzzled at the person standing before her: "Josh? Isn’t he working alongside Second Master?"

Huo Zhi reported in detail: "Last night, the Second Master took the Young Master out for entertainment, and when they returned, he was drunk. The Hidden Guard escorted him back to his room for rest without any apparent issue.

This morning, when the servants didn’t see the Young Master coming downstairs, they thought he was still sleeping off the hangover and didn’t go up to disturb him. In the afternoon, the servants felt something was wrong, went upstairs, and discovered the Young Master unconscious.

The Young Master’s face was pale, and no matter how much they called, he wouldn’t wake up. The servants notified the Second Master immediately, and a medical team was called in for an examination, and Dr. Chen also went there.

They couldn’t find anything wrong, and after the Second Master learned of the situation, he rushed over and thought the Young Master was possessed by evil spirits, so he asked me to invite you to take a look."

Learning that Josh might be possessed by spirits, Qin Ruan abruptly stood up, her round toes resting on the edge of the sofa slightly curling as she lowered her gaze to find her shoes.

Seeing the magnitude of her movement, Huo Zhi quickly stepped forward to assist: "Madam, please take it easy."

Madam was still pregnant and hadn’t passed the risky period; such a big movement made her heart jump with fear.

Qin Ruan, supporting herself on his arm, gave a wry smile: "Are you treating me like a fragile porcelain doll? I’m not that delicate."

She put on her shoes, then bent down to grab a handful of brightly colored, appetizing cherries from the fruit bowl on the table, and while eating, she said, "Let’s go, don’t keep people waiting anxiously."

Qin Ruan was also very curious about what exactly had happened to Josh, whether he was really entangled with something unclean, or it was a problem with his own health.

Huo Zhi supported her as they walked outside, hesitating to ask, "Madam, should we let the Master know?"

She knew that today the Master was at home.

Qin Ruan paused her steps, pondered for a moment, then said, "He’s sleeping upstairs, let’s not disturb him."

In recent times, the Third Master had been sleepy, requiring almost twelve hours of sleep out of the twenty-four hours in a day.

At this moment, he was deep in slumber, and Qin Ruan did not wish to disturb his rest.

As for the reason behind his excessive sleepiness, the Third Master had told her that every summer he tended to sleep a lot.

To such an explanation, Qin Ruan did not inquire further.

Hearing that the Master was sleeping, Huo Zhi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and she escorted Qin Ruan towards the door.

During this neither long nor short journey, she occasionally stole glances at Qin Ruan, focusing on her cheeks puffing up and down, which she found increasingly adorable, especially drawing her in, tempting her to reach out and touch.

Sensing Huo Zhi’s scrutinizing gaze, Qin Ruan swallowed the fruit in her mouth, knowing why the other was staring.

She looked down at the fruit in her hand with a face full of helplessness. She didn’t want to be so gluttonous, but her mouth had been restless these past few days, craving sour and sweet foods.

Catching Huo Zhi’s sneaky look again, Qin Ruan casually smiled and held up a cherry in front of her: "Do you want to eat, too?"

"Cough... I don’t need any,"

Huo Zhi answered with an air of guilt.

Qin Ruan contentedly brought the car’s offering to her lips.

The two of them stepped outside, boarded the car waiting, and headed to Josh’s residence in the Huo Mansion.

The mansion was so large that it took ten minutes to reach by car.

Huo Yirong sat by the bed, holding Josh’s warm and cool hand, her sharp and cold eyes darting towards the medical team inside the room. She asked again in a deep voice, "Don’t you have any other way to wake him up?"

The temperature of Josh’s body was nothing like a human’s. His hand felt even cooler than his physically weak younger brother’s.

Chen Hengfeng stepped forward, his face troubled, as he began to speak with frightened unease, "Second Young Master, Young Master’s physical condition is all normal. It’s like he is asleep, and not only is there no way to wake him up, but there could also be unknown dangers if we tried.

The Young Master’s situation is complicated. The neurons and axons in his central nervous system within the relatively enclosed space of the skull... We just used a machine to probe and found that even a slight stimulation could cause brain death.

The brain is the center of many neural activities, and there are thousands of reactions: sensation, movement, emotion, cognition, etc., and the Young Master’s brain central nervous system is very..."

"Stop, stop, stop!!!"

Huo Yirong didn’t care to listen to these technical terms; knowing that Josh couldn’t be awakened with advanced medical techniques was enough for her.

Just then, Huo Qiang’s voice came from outside the door, "Second Young Master, Madam has arrived and is on her way up."

Upon hearing this, the tightly furrowed brows of Huo Yirong slightly relaxed as he spoke quickly, "She is pregnant; you go and receive her personally."

If Qin Ruan were to bump or knock against something, and hurt the little princess in her belly, even his own life wouldn’t be sufficient to compensate his younger brother.

As for why he was sure it was a little princess, it was naturally because his niece-doting younger brother had assured him so confidently.

As Huo Yirong pondered, Qin Ruan had already entered the room under the protection of Huo Qiang and Huo Zhi.

She took a step into the room, paused, and her complexion visibly darkened at an alarming rate.

Huo Yirong stood up and walked towards Qin Ruan. Noticing her stopping, his expression shifted subtly, "Sister-in-law?"

"Have everyone leave the room!"

Qin Ruan’s voice was as cold as a blade, the chill in her tone alarming.

After speaking, she retracted the foot she had set inside the room.

A brooding storm was brewing on her delicate face, her eyes ablaze with fury, emanating a chilling coldness.

Huo Yirong still had faith in her capabilities. Upon hearing her words, he immediately motioned to the medical team and the Hidden Guards in the room, "Leave the room, all of you."

He also exited the room and approached Qin Ruan, asking in a low voice, "What’s the matter? Has Josh really been entangled with something filthy?"

Uncertainty laced his tone, along with concern for his cousin.

Qin Ruan raised an eyebrow, her cold eyes glancing at him sideways, her expression mockingly amused, "Isn’t that what you suspected before?"

The annoyance in her heart, though intentionally suppressed, did not show on her face.

Huo Yirong touched his nose, explaining, "It’s because his body temperature is abnormal. A normal person isn’t that cold. My younger brother’s body has always been cool, but Josh’s temperature is even more alarming than his."

Qin Ruan calmly watched as the members exited the room, and then she inquired, "Where did you take Josh for engagements last night?"

After the Hidden Guards and medical team had left the room, her gaze fell upon Josh, lying on the bed, his body enveloped in a bloody mist of Evil Qi.

A dense deathly aura surrounded him.

At sunset, Josh was sure to die.
