Chapter 549: Chapter 549: Master San hopes for a Girl in Qin Ruan’s belly

"Huo Junxin squinted his eyes slightly and glanced at the third brother whose face was not very good due to his anger.

He said in a deep voice, "I’ll go to the Cabinet now. I’ll handle things with the Su Family. You go home and rest. Stop worrying about these matters."

He was genuinely afraid that his third brother would get sick again. That would be a loss the Huo Family couldn’t afford to suffer.

The oppressive feeling around Huo Yunjiao diminished significantly.

He understood his eldest brother’s worry and spoke softly, "I’m fine, big brother, you can go handle your matters."

"I’ll watch you leave."

Being so close to Huo Yunjiao, Huo Junxin caught a faint whiff of the smell of blood on him.

The Nangong Familyhad provoked someone close to the third brother’s heart. He would not let them go easily.

Once he left, Nangong Family’s father and son upstairs would likely be in mortal danger.

His third brother was genuinely angry this time around.

The third brother, who hadn’t shown any emotions for many years, finally exhibited some semblance of humanity.

The one who started everything was none other than Qin Ruan who sat in the car outside.

This was a good thing.

Regrettably, excessive anger was harmful to one’s health.

Huo Junxin was worried that Huo Yunjiao would get sick again due to his anger towards the Nangong Family.

It would be best for him to stay away from the people of the Nangong Family at this time.

Despite his elder brother’s worry and disapproval, Huo Yunjiao had no choice but to leave the Nangong Family.

Before he left, he gave Huo Chuan a few instructions.

These were all directed at the architecture of the Nangong Family.

At the entrance.

Lin Hao stood in front of the car and quickly opened the back seat when he saw the third master coming out.

Huo Yunjiao retracted his sharp demeanor and regained his gentle, refined manners.

He glanced at Huo Junxin, who stood beside him, "Big brother, I’m leaving now. Call me if anything comes up."

Huo Junxin nodded, "Go, rest well at home."

"I know."

Huo Yunjiao walked down the steps and got into the car.

He naturally took Qin Ruan’s small hand, as if doing this could soothe the inexplicable restlessness in his heart.

Qin Ruan held back Huo Yunjiao’s hand.

She raised her eyes and looked at the man in front of her, who looked pale and showed a fatigue on his face.

Suddenly, Qin Ruan furrowed her brows, "Third Master, are you okay?"

Leaning against the seat, Huo Yunjiao laughed, shaking his head at her, "I’m fine."

Apart from the uncontrollable anger in his heart, everything else was fine.

At the Nangong Family’s mansion, he had barely maintained his self-control.

If the commotion outside had been delayed for another minute, Nangong Chang’s life would have ended in his hands.

Qin Ruan leaned forward and rested her entire body on Huo Yunjiao’s chest.

She reached out to touch his slightly frowning brow, "Third Master, don’t frown."

She did not like to see him frowning.

Qin Ruan could feel that the third master was not in a great mood.

But she did not know the reason.

Feeling the cool touch of Qin Ruan’s fingertips, the inexplicable restlessness in Huo Yunjiao’s heart eased down further.

He suddenly called out, "Ruanruan."

"Hmm?"

Qin Ruan lowered her eyes and gazed at the man’s exquisite, fair and handsome face.

He was really good-looking. No matter how much she looked at him, she never got tired.

Huo Yunjiao opened his mouth, wanting to ask Qin Ruan if she would stay in the Huo family and raise their children after he was gone in ten years.

But thinking of her age, Third Master shook his head with a smile.

He put his arms around Qin Ruan and held her close, "It’s nothing. I just called you."

There were things that could not be discussed yet.

If Qin Ruan matured a few more years, there might be this opportunity.

Leaning against Huo Yunjiao’s chest and listening to his powerful heartbeat, Qin Ruan didn’t know why her heart suddenly began to beat faster.

She knew that Third Master would not have called her just to call her.

She had a vague sense that what the third master was about to say just now might have pierced the paper window between them.

Huo Yunjiao stroked Qin Ruan’s hair, his gentle voice echoing in her ears.

"School starts in a couple of days. Are you feeling well enough to go?"

After some thought, Qin Ruan replied, "It’s okay. As long as I wear loose clothing to school, nobody will notice."

Huo Yunjiao pinched her earlobe, laughing lightly.

"I’m not worried about people finding out about your pregnancy, but rather whether your body can handle it."

"I can go for another month or two."

Qin Ruan did not feel that this would affect her normal school life.

Knowing that she was stubborn, third master didn’t try to persuade her: "Huo Zhi is back. Once she recovers from her injuries, I’ll have her stay by your side at all times. This way, I’ll feel more at ease."

"Huo Zhi is injured?" Qin Ruan abruptly raised her head.

Anyone could see Qin Ruan’s concern for Huo Zhi.

Looking at her anxious expression, Huo Yunjiao’s deep eyes raised an eyebrow. "Are you that worried about Huo Zhi?"

Just after handling one Nangong Chang, now there was a Huo Zhi.

The third master was not illogical. He wasn’t being jealous, either.

But seeing Qin Ruan being so anxious and worried about Huo Zhi, a sense of disappointment plagued him, especially when he noticed that she was more emotionally transparent about her feelings for him.

Meeting Huo Yunjiao’s vaguely meaningful gaze, Qin Ruan’s eyes unintentionally shifted away.

She quietly said, "Huo Zhi is very nice."

The gentle peach-blossom eyes of Huo Yunjiao looked at Qin Ruan. His lips moved with the words, "Am I not good?"

Huo Yunjiao’s voice was lazily majestic and pleasing.

"Yes, you are."

Qin Ruan didn’t hesitate to respond.

If this man wasn’t good, she wouldn’t have steadfastly chosen to be with him.

How good the third master was, no one was clearer about it than her, whether it was in her past life or this one.

Huo Yunjiao was quite easy to appease.

Qin Ruan’s immediate response without a moment’s hesitation made him feel cheerful in no time.

He told Qin Ruan about Huo Zhi’s identity and everything else that happened to her during this time.

Qin Ruan blinked her eyes, feeling as if she had stepped into a disappointing illusion.

"Huo Zhi belongs to the Witch Clan?"

Huo Yunjiao nodded, "Yes, her entry into the Huo family was a complex process. Her survival can be attributed to her own abilities as well as the favor of the Hidden guard."

Qin Ruan asked, "Who favored her?"

Huo Yunjiao considered this for a moment, "Huo Qiang, Huo Chuan, second brother, the old master, among others."

"So Huo Zhi is always injured?"

"The hidden guards of the Huo family often face life-threatening situations. Without the ability to defend themselves, they may fall at any time. Huo Zhi is a talented individual, but she is still slightly less skilled compared to Huo Qiang and Huo Chuan. Therefore, she is treated more harshly."

Qin Ruan looked thoughtful, "Knowing that Huo Zhi belongs to the witch clan, why would you still want her to stay?"

"Huo Zhi was able to survive back then because she voluntarily reported herself to our grandfather. And also because of the soft spot our grandfather had for her.

For many years, the Huo family was without female family members, which resulted in Huo Zhi being doted on by the hidden guards of the Huo family. Even the old master showed her a lot of concern when she was a child."

His gaze fell, focusing on Qin Ruan’s stomach.

His gentle eyes shone brightly, "Ruanruan, do you think one of our children will be a girl?"

"Huh?" The topic had changed so quickly that Qin Ruan was taken aback.

She lowered her eyes to gaze at her slightly swollen stomach.

In her past life, their child who died prematurely in jail was a boy.

At that time, there was only one child growing inside her.

She wasn’t sure whether the other child existed at that time.

This life, however, she could be sure that the child from her past life who wasn’t born was back.

As for the gender of the other child in this lifetime, she wasn’t sure.
