Chapter 193: Chapter 193: Huo Yunjiao’s Subtle Show-off of His Charming Wife

The smile on Huo Yunjiao’s face remained, unfortunately, it didn’t quite reach his eyes,

His gaze was as calm as a serene pool: "I’m afraid that won’t be possible."

Lu Han became anxious: "Third Master, this is a matter of life and death!"

"My girl is pregnant."

"..." Lu Han was stunned.

Pregnant?

Is Qin Ruan pregnant? Whose child is it?

Seeing the elusive pride on the Third Master’s face, Lu Han had a bad feeling about the situation.

Huo Yunjiao’s eyes were smiling, the corners of his lips raised in a charming curve.

He said, "Qin Ruan and I have already gotten our marriage license, you might want to change how you address her, perhaps to Madam Huo."

Lu Han twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling overwhelmed.

But Qin Ruan was the only suspect in the case who had information, he didn’t want to miss this opportunity.

Lu Han stood up, looking at Huo Yunjiao with a serious expression: "Third Master, are you certain that you were with the Madam all last night?"

"I am very sure of that, she fell asleep in the car last night, and I personally carried her to the room."

The Third Master spoke in a gentle tone, with a playful smile lurking in his deep eyes, enough to bewitch a heart if one isn’t careful.

This unexpected public display of affection took him by surprise.

Lu Han always felt as though the Third Master was flaunting, but unfortunately, he had no evidence.

"Alright then." He looked at the evidence bag in Huo Yunjiao’s hand, a hint of regret in his eyes.

"Third Master, this pendant is one of the important clues in this case. Since your wife has nothing to do with this case, please hand it over to her on my behalf."

Huo Yunjiao showed a satisfied expression: "Alright."

Lu Han knew when he should back down, "If there’s nothing else, I won’t bother you any longer. Things are quite chaotic at the office, I should head back."

The Huo family always did as they said, he believed that the Third Master, who was the future head of the Huo family, would not protect his family’s interests at the expense of justice.

Furthermore, Huo Yunjiao was the main heir of the third generation of the Huo family. Given the patriarch’s emphasis on the heirs, he did not dare to secretly bring Qin Ruan to the office for questioning.

"Why the rush?"

Seeing that he was really leaving, Huo Yirong spoke to stop him.

His intention in meeting with Lu Han today was to gauge the Lu family’s stance towards the Xiao family.

Lu Han paused: "Second Master, is there something else?"

In fact, he was only a year younger than Huo Yirong and Huo Yunjiao.

If not for their senior generation, he would probably address them as brothers.

Huo Yirong leaned lazily against his chair, sizing up Lu Han with his gaze.

The atmosphere in the room grew tense; when Lu Han was finally ready to speak, the Second Master said with a sigh, "Young Master Lu, you know about the canceled marriage alliance between the Huo and Su families, don’t you?"

"I’ve heard a bit."

This matter had been blown out of proportion, hard not to know.

Su Jingshu had given the Second Master a problem even before they got married, the Su family was truly done for this time.

With his head supported by one hand, Huo Yirong’s voice was low, "The Su family, the Nangong family, the Xiao family; they are all restless. The balance of power in the Capital City has been maintained for many years. It would necessarily have to be reshuffled if broken.

There will certainly be bloodshed when the balance of power is broken. As those old enough to have experienced fights and killings first-hand, they are now reluctant to see such bloody happenings."

Lu Han understood this, the Lu family was also one of the four major families, and equally did not wish to break the balance that had been hard to maintain over hundreds of years.

Noticing that Huo Yirong’s words carried a deeper meaning, he frowned: "What does Second Master mean?"

"The Xiao family."

Huo Yirong’s answer was extremely clear and straightforward.

This time, he wanted to figure out the Lu family’s stance.

On hearing the name Xiao family, Lu Han’s handsome face quickly darkened.

"Everything the Xiao family does has nothing to do with my Lu family!" There was a mocking chill in his words.

Huo Yirong: "Can Young Master Lu represent the Lu family?"
