Chapter 269: Chapter 269: Ruanruan Acts, Never Talks

Lu Han’s tone was urgent, with a hint of exhaustion and fatigue in his voice.

It was as if he hadn’t had a good rest in days.

Qin Ruan thought of his ability to see the Puppet with his own eyes, and couldn’t help but smile.

Suppressing her laughter, she asked, "Where are you now?"

"Our Criminal Investigation Bureau, can we meet somewhere?"

Lu Han’s tone was somewhat impatient.

"Sure, you pick the place, I’ll head over soon."

"I’ll send the address to your phone."

"Okay."

After hanging up, Qin Ruan went to dry her hair, during which Lu Han sent her the meeting location.

It was a tea house near the Criminal Investigation Bureau.

Half an hour later, Qin Ruan grabbed her car keys and headed downstairs.

Downstairs, Qin Jingcen was giving Qin Mei a lesson, enlightening him about the internal dynamics of the Qin Group and the company’s management process.

Qin Mei listened absent-mindedly, splitting his attention.

He was the first to notice Qin Ruan going downstairs: "Ruanruan, are you going out?"

"Yes, I’m going out for a bit."

Qin Mei immediately stood up: "Where are you going? When will you be back?"

Qin Ruan descended the stairs, stopping in front of him, her expression mockingly playful.

"Why, do you have any other ideas?"

Seeing the pained expression in his eyes and his lack of patience, she knew immediately.

"Qin Mei, you’re not going anywhere today. If you can’t understand even the reports, you’ll be stuck with me for the next while."

With that, the young master of the Qin family had spoken, effectively cutting down Qin Mei’s plans to escape.

Incensed, Qin Mei retorted: "There’s no rush for this right now."

The mind-boggling numbers on the company reports were giving him a serious headache; he was simply not cut out for this.

Qin Jingcen’s expression turned somber: "Dad is going to retire from the board soon, and you need to join the company to help. You need to start learning sooner or later, it’s better to do it early."

"I didn’t plan on joining the company." Qin Mei mumbled quietly.

With his glaring eyes and low voice, the elder Qin brother angerly asked, "What did you just say?"

This was a sign that he was about to lose his temper.

Qin Mei immediately waved his hands: "Nothing, Big Brother, you see that Ruanruan is going out, and there’s no one to look after her, so how about today we drop it, I’ll accompany her out for a while, and when I get back we can continue?"

"Do you think I would believe that crap?"

Without mercy, the elder Qin brother saw through his lies.

He was confident that if he let this little brat go today, he wouldn’t be able to catch him again for a long time.

Qin Ruan agreed and nodded: "It’s important for Brother Mei to get more hands-on experience with the company’s affairs. There are people around me."

She pointed at Huo Chuan, who was standing in the Qin family’s hall.

"Grandfather arranged for someone to accompany me. I am not easily bullied and won’t get into trouble, don’t worry."

She moved forward, patting Qin Mei’s shoulder for encouragement.

"Ruanruan..." Qin Mei looked at her with a mournful expression.

Why was even his sister exploiting him? Life was so tough on him.

"You stay at home and study at your leisure, I’m leaving."

With a radiant smile, Qin Ruan twirled the car keys in her hand and left with a light step.

As Qin Ruan turned to leave, Qin Jingcen worriedly reminded her, "Ruanruan, be careful. Your body is not suited to vigorous activity, if anything happens, do not handle it on your own."

His little sister has always been the kind that would prefer action over words, so he couldn’t help but be worried about her.

"I understand. Don’t worry, big brother."

Without turning around, Qin Ruan waved her hand in acknowledgement.

...

The Criminal Investigation Bureau, at a nearby tea house.

Huo Chuan drove the car to the front of the tea house and stopped. Qin Ruan carried the bag that she had collected from Lun Wenbin, containing eight hundred thousand in cash.

Huo Chuan turned to her, "Madam, shall I accompany you inside?"

"Either way is fine."

Qin Ruan opened the car door and stepped out on her own.

Huo Chuan immediately handed the car over to his subordinates and followed her out.

They walked one after the other into the elegant tea room.

Under the guidance of a waitress dressed in a cheongsam, they arrived at the private room where Lu Han had arranged to meet.

"knock knock—"

The waitress knocked on the door, and Lu Han’s voice from inside permitted her to enter.

The door was opened, and Qin Ruan, carrying the box in her hand, was the first to walk in.

Inside the private room, Lu Han sat at the table with a gloomy expression. Seeing Qin Ruan come in, his eyes lit up with surprise.

"Madam, you finally arrived!"

He was as if a man waiting for salvation who finally saw his savior.

Qin Ruan smiled and said: "It seems that Director Lu has had an interesting past few days."

Lu Han’s majestic face showed a fleeting grimace.

To say that he’s been having interesting days would be an understatement, it was thrilling to the point of being heart-stopping.

He thought that if he could see the driver’s soul, he could ask about the details of the case incidentally.

Only to realize later that what he could see with these eyes were not just the driver’s soul.

In every corner of this city, he could see wandering ghosts almost everywhere.

All kinds of Puppets, missing arms and legs, terrified, bloody, headless or torn apart, were challenging his nerves.

These past few days, he had never closed his eyes.

He was always on edge, fearing that those things would swarm over and devour him.

Qin Ruan sat across the table, her eyes scanning the driver’s soul sitting next to Lu Han.

Huo Chuan stood behind Qin Ruan very consciously, eyes downcast, still as a statue.

Lu Han pointed at his own eyes, asking Qin Ruan pitifully: "When will I stop seeing those things?"

"Anytime." Qin Ruan smiled at him.

She put the briefcase on the table, her eyes turning to the driver’s soul whose hue was turning dull, his expression stiff.

She calmly said: "Your time has come, do you have any wishes before you go?"

"I want to see my daughter again."

The driver’s soul spoke in a hoarse voice, and the chill in the air could permeate the whole room whenever he spoke.

"Alright, I will make sure that you see her one last time before you leave."

Qin Ruan nodded.

She asked Lu Han: "The college entrance examination has ended, does his daughter know about his incident?"

"She knows." Lu Han’s face was heavy, and the simple nod seemed quite difficult.

"When the child heard about her father’s accident, she fainted several times from crying."

At this news, Qin Ruan’s relaxed expression disappeared, and her eyes dimmed.

Looking again at the driver’s soul sitting next to Lu Han, his face was pale and his expression was not particularly excited, but he could not hide his profound sadness.

Apparently, he already knew the news.

"Director Lu, look here."

Qin Ruan spoke abruptly, and the first thing Lu Han did was look at her.

A faint golden light seemed to flash before his eyes, and Lu Han felt a slight sting, causing him to reflexively close his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again and looked at the driver’s soul sitting next to him, there was nothing there.

Qin Ruan sealed Lu Han’s Heavenly Eye, and instructed: "Director Lu, pay more attention to rest recently. Looking at your pale face, if I didn’t know better, I’d think you were kidney deficient. For the next few days, you should abstain."

"..."

Lu Han’s mouth twitched violently.

Her words made it sound as if she knew him very well.

Implying a man had kidney deficiency was a massive faux pas.

If it weren’t for the fact that this Qin Ruan was his boss’s woman, he would have taught this little girl a good lesson.
