Chapter 171: Chapter 171: Qin Ruan, is the person on the tip of Third Brother’s heart

There were numerous students coming and going beneath the academic building, many of whom knew of Hou Xiangli.

Incidents involving her stirring up trouble at school every two or three days had become commonplace.

Now, seeing her fallen onto a beautiful woman, they only casually brushed over with their gaze before swiftly moving it away.

Holding the person in her hand, Huo Zhi moved a couple steps towards Qin Ruan, "Madam, the third master has sent someone to bring your lunch. It has already been sent to your dormitory."

"I know."

Qin Ruan’s gaze moved away from Hou Xiangli as she lightly acknowledged.

She pursed her lips, and then asked, "Did you handle the incident with Hou Xiangli earlier on?"

"Yes—" Huo Zhi did not hide.

It was indeed her who had the video removed from the forum, and reported the matter to the third master.

As expected, Qin Ruan thought to herself, these days Huo Zhi followed her everywhere, trusting only her.

"The school board of Shengshi Academy dismissed Director Hou, it must have been the third master’s arrangements, right?"

Huo Zhi bowed her head, "Shengshi Academy was founded by the Huo family. If Madam has been bullied in school, those people should be punished."

Qin Ruan surprisingly didn’t know that the Shengshi Academy was established by the Huo family.

She knew that the Huo family had an extraordinary influence in Capital City, but she never imagined that they also owned the prestigious hundred-year-old school.

Huo Zhi walked Qin Ruan to her dormitory building but did not go up with her.

She left holding the unconscious Hou Xiangli.

The Hou family did have some power in Capital City, but when compared to the four great families and the six aristocratic families, they really weren’t much to look at.

Those who dared to act against the Huo family, a bleak future awaited Hou Xiangli.

In the upcoming days, the Hou family would no longer exist in Capital City.

Qin Ruan returned to her dormitory, seeing a number of thermal boxes arranged on the table.

She walked over, and opened the double-layered thermal box closest to her, the strong scent of exquisite dishes rushing to her nose.

The Huo family had sent over six dishes and a soup.

When all the boxes were opened, the faint scent of herbs filled the room.

All the food and soup were blood and energy nourishment, the medicated diet was beneficial for her body.

A faint smile hung on Qin Ruan’s lips, she gently caressed her abdomen, a soft laughter in her eyes.

The third master really was considerate.

This time, with her being careful and Huo Yunjiao’s protectiveness, her own baby would safely be brought into the world.

Qin Ruan sat down and picked up her chopsticks, contentedly enjoying the delicious meal that was the perfect combination of color, aroma, and taste.

...

Huo Mansion.

Huo Yirong was taking a rare break today.

The deal with X Country was complete, so he didn’t need to run to the company as frequently these past few days.

The small building, open-air balcony.

The handsome second master, Huo, had his hand resting on the railing, standing with a casual yet graceful air.

At home, he was rarely dressed so casually. His comfortable leisurewear suppressed his cold and merciless aura, adding a touch of amicability.

Just because he had no complicated affairs at the company, it did not mean that Huo Yirong could have peace.

Huo Qiang stood behind him and respectfully reported, "The old master has cut off quite a few of the Su family’s businesses, and has stirred up some troubles in the cabinet too. The news about the cancellation of the Huo and Su families’ marriage alliance and their complete fallout is now public knowledge.

Over the years, the Su family has taken advantage of the marriage alliance to profit. Now, they have repaid all they owe in just a few days.

The Su family isn’t willing to give up and has begun making moves. They have discovered something about the third master’s wife, but they haven’t taken any action yet."

Upon hearing that the Su family was targeting his young sister-in-law, a change came over Huo Yirong’s indifferent demeanor.

He turned around, a hint of sharpness flashed in his eyes. "Old Qiang, Qin Ruan is a very precious person to my third brother. If she gets hurt by the Su family, the Hidden Department will no longer need to exist."

The order from the patriarch was to ensure the safe birth of the child in Qin Ruan’s belly.

Now, to the Huo family, she was extremely important.
