Chapter 433: Chapter 433: Life and Death are Predestined, Let’s See Her Fate

In recent years, the Su Family, the Nangong Family, and the Xiao Family have indeed been covertly testing the limits of the Huo Family.

Especially this year, starting from the scheme of the Imperial Court Hotel one evening, many things have escalated out of control.

The minor scuffles from the past few years, none left a deeper impression than roughly everything that transpired this year.

The plot at the Imperial Court Hotel, calling upon the South Ocean Evil Path to attack Master Huo, and more...

The color drained from Su Jingshu’s delicately made-up face, she nervously licked her lips.

Master Huo remained calm and composed, saying nonchalantly: "The Huo Family has been holding back because of centuries of friendship. By now, this friendship has mostly been exhausted."

Probe a moment in her heart, Su Jingshu refutes with gritted teeth: "Master, my Su Family has always been loyal, never having done anything detrimental to the Huo Family!"

She resolutely denied, aware that many issues were known to everyone, but there was still a big difference between admitting and denying.

Disappointment crept into Huo Yunjiao’s handsome face, he said sternly: "I hope you won’t regret what you said today."

He lost his patience, gestured subtly to dispense with the courtesy: "I am not well, I shall not keep Miss Su any longer. Please leave."

Su Jingshu returned the glance aimed at her and asked once more: "Master, can I take Lin Hao away with me?"

Should Lin Hao live and remain in the Huo Family, it would be a threat to her.

He knew too much about the Su Family – nothing secret, but it still made her uncomfortable at heart.

She must eliminate such a man, lest he becomes a potential risk.

Without raising his head, Master Huo asked lightly: "Su Jingshu, what do you take the Huo Family for?"

Su Jingshu’s little trick might be effective against Qin Ruan, but demanding people back to her face was equal to an affront to the Huo Family.

Despite this, Su Jingshu insisted: "Lin Hao belongs to the Su Family, he has been with me for years, I can’t leave him in the Huo Family."

Master Huo flashed his sharp eyes at Su Jingshu, warned in a low and threatening tone: "If he wasn’t an old friend of Ruanruan, he would have been dead yesterday."

Exactly because Su Jingshu knew that Lin Hao and Qin Ruan had some involvements in the West City, she used him as a gambit in order to gauge the Huo Family’s limit and to rid herself of Lin Hao.

For her, Lin Hao, who had attached to a woman favored by Nangong Chang was an irritant, a visible thorn in her flesh. She didn’t tolerate the existence of such a person that could potentially irritate her.

Su Jingshu took a deep breath, not wanting to give up that easily, she started again: "Master..."

Huo Yunjiao’s gloomy gaze locked onto Su Jingshu, an inexplicable pressure emerged, warning her with an indifferent tone: "Su Jingshu, don’t test my patience."

Reflected in the chilling gaze of Master Huo, Su Jingshu saw her own panicked face.

Moving her gaze away, she looked murderously at Lin Hao, gritting her teeth, she said: "I take my leave!"

As she finished her words, she stormed out unwillingly.

"Wait!"

Qin Ruan stopped her.

Swinging her turn around, Su Jingshu looked coldly at Qin Ruan: "Does Madam have anything else to discuss?"

Qin Ruan’s delicate face revealed a somewhat deep expression.

Giving Su Jingshu a thorough look, she said with her red lips slightly parted: "Every cause has its effect, everything in the world has its cycle. One cannot escape karma, whether good or evil, fortune and misfortune are relative. Su Jingshu, do not force anything. Your good deeds and virtue won’t bear too much consumption. Be careful."

Su Jingshu showed a puzzled look on her graceful face, frowning, "What do you mean?"

Qin Ruan said slowly: "Don’t covet things that don’t belong to you in the first place, or you’ll end up with nothing."

Suddenly, Su Jingshu laughed, her face full of mockery, she proudly replied: "Madam, there’s no need to mince your words. Rest assured, if I can’t take Lin Hao away today, I won’t need him in the future."

She thought that Qin Ruan was referring to Lin Hao and smirked at the notion.

In reality, it wasn’t the case, Qin Ruan sighed, "She is obstinately persisting with the wrong course."

Su Jingshu snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Just as she turned around, her impeccably made-up face darkened.

How could she not understand Qin Ruan’s words? They were too familiar.

All she had been doing and aiming for over the past few years was for one man.

The Master of the Nanyin Temple warned her before, the man she forced upon herself was ultimately a stumbling block in her path.

If she could let go, she wouldn’t have been struggling all these years.

Soon, Su Jingshu vanished from sight.

Huo Yunjiao turned his gaze towards Qin Ruan by his side and tenderly stroked her hair, "Ruanruan, what did you mean by what you just said?"

Qin Ruan leaned back on the sofa, sighing quite deeply, "If Su Jingshu were a man, she would certainly be bestowed a noble title."

"Such high praise?" Master laughed in astonishment.

Qin Ruan looked up, her eyes filled with pity, "Su Jingshu’s fate is not bad, but it’s a shame that she has obsessive love. Love blinds her and holds her back from her destiny."

She didn’t have a particularly bad or good opinion of Su Jingshu.

A woman who was born into a family which surpassed most by far. She was cunning and ruthless, even more so than a man. It was a pity she was not able to reach the pinnacle due to love.

As for Qin Ruan, Su Jingshu was just a passerby who didn’t matter in the slightest. Her biggest concern was Huo Zhi.

Qin Ruan tugged at Huo Yunjiao’s sleeve, her tone filled with worry: "Master, what’s going on with Huo Zhi? How can she be a traitor? I remember she mentioned that she grew up in the Huo Family since she was a child."

"Indeed, Huo Zhi came to the Huo Family when she was six years old. It’s been eighteen years since then."

Qin Ruan nodded, "After so many years, it’s unlikely for her to betray the Huo Family."

Huo Yunjiao chuckled softly, "In these eighteen years, Huo Zhi’s abilities have been witnessed by all, which has allowed her to become one of the leaders among the hidden guards. Unfortunately, no matter how many years pass, she can’t change the fact that she is a spy from another house."

He didn’t explicitly mention whether Huo Zhi would betray the Huo Family, only discussed her status.

Qin Ruan frowned slightly, "Will she die?"

Huo Yunjiao raised his eyebrows, his gaze tenderly fixed on Qin Ruan, his handsome face betrayed infinite indulgence: "Didn’t you plea for her yesterday?"

He had promised not to kill Huo Zhi, and it was a promise to Qin Ruan.

Qin Ruan asked, "What if I hadn’t pleased for her?"

"Master nonchalantly replied: "Fate controls life and death, her luck dictates her future."

Upon hearing that, Qin Ruan felt a headache coming on.

In this lifetime, many things have changed a lot compared to her previous life.

She was unsure about the changes that were yet to occur.

She could only wish for the safety of her family and the child in her belly, and of course, of Master.

"Young miss, what are you thinking about?"

Huo Yunjiao waved his hand in front of Qin Ruan.

He called out to her several times but received no response.

Pulled back from her thoughts, Qin Ruan appeared lethargic, "Nothing much, I just have a sense of time passing."

Huo Yunjiao chuckled lightly, "You’re always thinking about things despite your youth."

"No, I am just prudent."

Qin Ruan refused to admit she was overthinking.

Huo Yunjiao pinched Qin Ruan’s cheek, asking her, "Are you going back to the Qin Family today?"
