Chapter 184: Chapter 184: Standoff between two parties, Third Master’s Sly Moves

This scene, seen by the Third Master, was no matter how you looked at it, extremely offensive to the eye.

Qin Jingcen squinted at the hand Huo Yunjiao extended towards him.

He raised his hand and clasped the slender and jade-like hand, which was considerably colder than the normal body temperature. He distanced himself, saying, "Third Master is too kind, I am not worthy."

At the moment Qin Jingcen shook hands, Huo Yunjiao quickly pulled Qin Ruan over.

He moved so fast that the siblings had no time to prepare.

Once he got hold of her, Third Master nonchalantly let go of Qin Jingcen’s hand.

He lowered his eyes, pinching Qin Ruan’s reddened wrist, and slightly furrowed his brows.

Huo Yunjiao’s voice was slightly heavy: "Does it hurt?"

She was too delicate - a slight touch would leave a mark.

He wondered what state she was in at Imperial Court Hotel that night, after everything went down.

Qin Ruan didn’t dare to speak. She anxiously turned towards her elder brother.

As expected, Qin Jingcen’s face darkened.

It was a blatant attempt to snatch someone on Qin Family’s territory!

Even though the Qin family is not as powerful as the Huo family, it was too much to take advantage of that.

Eldest Master Qin stared at Huo Yunjiao, whose eyes were heavy, but his tone was gentle as water, "Ruanruan, please come here."

"..." Qin Ruan.

She was utterly speechless.

She could not ignore the heavy tension between the two men.

On one side was her dear elder brother, and on the other was the father of her child.

Whichever side she took was inappropriate.

"Ruanruan, come to father’s side."

Qin Anguo’s words saved Qin Ruan, and she rushed to him almost eagerly.

Master Huo’s eyebrows lifted slightly and the corners of his lips softened, giving the impression of satisfaction.

"Huo Zhi."

"At your service." Huo Zhi immediately stepped forward.

"Serve the soup to Madam."

"Yes——"

Huo Zhi carried the medicinal soup that had been cooling on the table, and slowly walked up to Qin Ruan.

She respectfully offered the soup to her, "Madam, please enjoy the soup."

"What nonsense! Does the Qin family lack this soup?!"

Before Qin Ruan could answer, Qin Mei burst in anger.

He walked up to his father and younger sister, blocking Huo Zhi’s ingratiating attempts.

The smile on Huo Yunjiao’s face slowly solidified, and his eyes furrowed.

The soup contained many expensive medicinal herbs, simmered for six or seven hours, and it was greatly beneficial to Qin Ruan’s health.

If the soup cooled, its medicinal effect would be reduced.

Qin Ruan was watching Huo Yunjiao’s every move, and seeing his furrowed brows, she immediately stepped forward.

"Second brother, don’t cause trouble."

She took the medicinal soup from Huo Zhi, and under the gaze of several pairs of eyes, she drank it all in one go.

Huo Yunjiao came forward, took the bowl from her hands personally.

His cool fingers touched the corner of Qin Ruan’s mouth, wiping off the traces of soup on her lips.

Huo Yunjiao’s action was too intimate and flirtatious. Feeling embarrassed, Qin Ruan wanted to leave but was gently held back by her neck.

Qin Ruan looked confused, while Huo Yunjiao’s eyes filled with deeper amusement.

He softly asked, "This medicinal soup was specially prepared for you, how does it taste?"

"It’s okay."

Qin Ruan was telling the truth.

Although the soup contained medicine, the taste was not unpleasant, nor was it hard to swallow.

Overall, the taste was quite good.

Master Huo lightly nodded, "For the sake of your health and the baby in your belly, you’ll have to drink a bowl every day. If you get tired of it, we’ll switch up the flavors."

Qin Mei, with a sullen expression, was ignored again and threw a tantrum, "Why the hell does my sister need you to meddle!"

He reached out to pull Qin Ruan to his side, full of hostility towards Huo Yunjiao.

Third Master slowly raised his eyes, his expression gentle, but his eyes were inscrutable, "Qin Mei?"

The latter raised his chin, acting high and mighty.
