Chapter 496: Chapter 496 Ruanruan: I want them scared, dare not to be presumptuous again

Qin Ruan’s eyes roamed the length of Rong Jing’s figure.

The sudden change in his expression was imprinted clearly in her eyes.

"But...but they are people of the aristocratic family, aren’t you afraid of trouble?"

Rong Jing still didn’t understand, being berated by someone didn’t hurt, it was just uncomfortable deep down, and felt quite suffocating.

Compared to Qin Ruan and her husband being targeted by these people, the future would be riddled with relentless trouble.

He could imagine the scene of Qin Ruan being plotted against by the aristocrats, it would be devastating.

These aristocrats, they had no mercy, they were merciless.

Qin Ruan’s eyes, as deep as an ancient pool, scanned Rong Jing from top to bottom.

Suddenly, a hint of mockery appeared on the corner of her mouth, "Worried about me?"

Rong Jing frowned, his face serious, "Isn’t that obvious? Of course, I am! You should make them stop, step back and you’ll have the whole sky."

After so many years of mingling in the upper social circles, he had grown accustomed to endurance.

Only by enduring everything could one survive.

Qin Ruan shook her head at Rong Jing as she brushed away a strand of hair from her ear, "Enduring time and time again only invites exacerbation, stepping back does not lead to boundless opportunity, but to greed."

What I want is for them to fear, only with genuine fear will they stop their recklessness."

Upon hearing these words, Rong Jing’s face crumpled in dismay.

If Qin Ruan was also from an aristocratic family, or her husband’s status was powerful enough, Rong Jing agreed with her words.

But the problem now was that Qin Ruan and her husband’s status were perhaps not strong enough to confront the resentment of the aristocrats head-on.

They were bound to lose when they clashed with the aristocrats.

With Rong Jing’s good intentions for Qin Ruan, he earnestly tried to persuade her, "Qin Ruan, you can’t do this.

They are of the aristocratic families, born into power, a group of people who hold themselves above others, you can’t confront them head-on.

This society is very realistic, very cruel, if you’re not powerful enough to be followed and admired by everyone, it’s best to endure..."

"Enough, don’t say any more!"

Rong Menglan cut off Rong Jing’s words, he couldn’t bear to watch him make a fool of himself.

He finally understood that this young man knew Madam Huo, but he had no clue about her real identity.

Such a naïve boy, overly innocent.

With Qin Ruan’s status, dealing with the people in the room was just a matter of a word.

She had the entire Huo family standing behind her, and she was also bearing the fourth generation of the Huo family.

Who dared to blatantly harm her?

Rong Jing did not understand his cousin’s kind intentions and he disapprovingly looked at his cousin.

"Brother Lan, Qin Ruan saved my and my old man’s life. I can’t let her offend those people like that! You have no idea, these bastards are inhuman, they love to bully the weak!"

His words were filled with anger, showing signs of displacement.

These words sounded grating to Rong Menglan’s ears.

He stared at Rong Jing, his tone bland, "Now, you too are part of those bastards."

"..."

Rong Jing’s mouth dropped open, he couldn’t utter a single word.

Yes, now he was part of the six major aristocratic Rong families and had a high-ranking status.

Had his previous words insulted himself as well?

Not just that, did he also just criticize his cousin?

Rong Jing looked somewhat awkward, he brushed his hair and let out an awkward chuckle.

Qin Ruan’s gaze landed on the two cousins, a hint of amusement in her eyes.

She was annoyed, but her dark mood had subsided significantly.

Rong Menglan gave Rong Jing a long look, then patted his shoulder twice.

These two meaningful pats made Rong Jing sulk.

He clung onto Rong Menglan’s arm and pleaded, "Cousin, you can’t tell my old man about this, or else he’ll throw another fit."

Lately, he didn’t know what was the matter with his old man. Whenever he did anything displeasing, he could punish him severely.

The old man didn’t beat or scold him. He just made medicinal soups for him and asked him to find a woman outside, hoping that he would bring back a daughter-in-law soon.

This gave Rong Jing a phobia of women.

"We’ll see." Rong Menglan’s voice slightly dropped.

At this point, Rong Jing who found himself in difficult straits, couldn’t persuade Qin Ruan anymore.

His face full of desperation, he hoped that the old man wouldn’t make those terrible-tasting and smelly medicinal soups for him.

Rong Menglan glanced at his wristwatch, it was time for him to leave.

He looked up at Qin Ruan and politely said, "Madam Huo, Rong Jing and I have to leave first. We have matters at home tonight."

Their excuse for leaving sounded like the same one used by the group invited by Xiao Yujie.

Qin Ruan’s eyebrows slightly raised, as she looked at the man standing before her with a faint smile.

Rong Menglan appeared poised and pointed at Rong Jing, "Tonight our elders are gathered at home, officially documenting Rong Jing and his father into the family."

"Right, I almost forgot about this!"

Rong Jing exclaimed.

He really had almost forgotten. His cousin had told him they would take him out to meet some people.

Everything that happened tonight made him forget about such an important matter.

Qin Ruan nodded slightly, "I see, in that case, I won’t see you off. Safe travels."

Rong Jing couldn’t wait to leave, but Rong Menglan stood in front of Qin Ruan, not moving an inch.

"Any other matters?" Qin Ruan changed her position, leaning against the wall.

Lately, her body had grown heavier, standing for too long made her tired, sitting for too long sometimes strained her back, even lying down occasionally was hard on her.

Rong Menglan stared at Qin Ruan, looking as if he wanted to say something, but refrained.

He noticed Qin Ruan change her position, the endurance in her eyes, and her impatient expression.

Rong Menglan knew she was pregnant and uncomfortable.

"Shall we talk outside? It’s not good for your condition to stand here for too long."

Qin Ruan glanced at the closed door beside her, agreeing with Rong Menglan’s suggestion.

"Alright."

The three of them left the Zhenpin Pavilion together.

Just as they exited the stylishly decorated corner of the lobby, a pair of eyes that had been watching them silently receded.

A person pulled out their phone and made a call.

...

As soon as Qin Ruan left Zhenpin Pavilion, a beautifully-designed, top-of-the-line Rolls-Royce parked at the entrance.

After stopping the car, the Huo family’s hidden guard who was in the driver’s seat got out.

He opened the rear door and bowed to Qin Ruan, "Madam."

Then he gestured for her to get in the car.

Qin Ruan turned around and asked Rong Menglan standing next to her, "What does Young Master Rong have to say to me?"

Rong Menglan also made a gesture of invitation, "I can see that you are tired, Madam Huo. Go ahead and get in the car."

Qin Ruan gave him a deep look, then stepped into the car.

She sat down in the car and rested her body against the back of the seat, her back feeling much better with a support point.

After she settled down in the car, Rong Menglan, standing outside, slowly began to speak, "Madam Huo may not know this, but I am quite close with Xiao Yujie."

Qin Ruan who was sitting in the car nodded, indicating that she was listening.

Rong Menglan gazed at Qin Ruan’s profile with gentleness and softly said, "Xiao Yujie’s temper is occasionally mixed and he tends to stir up trouble, but he’s not malicious.

I was invited by him tonight, I hope Madam Huo understands the meaning behind this?"
