Young Master Is Being Jealous Again!
Chapter 551: He is afraid of losing his sanity and hurting Qin Ruan

Chapter 551: Chapter 551: He is afraid of losing his sanity and hurting Qin Ruan

Huo Qiang knew well that his master was currently physically weak, and not being unconscious was already fortunate. The most crucial thing right now was rest.

And Champs Elysees Manor, was the best place for his master to rest.

Huo Qiang hesitated to ask: "What about Madam?"

Huo Yunjiao’s gaze slightly dropped, focusing silently on a particular spot on the desk.

After a while, he quietly said: "No need to notify Madam."

Huo Qiang further queried: "Do we need to inform the old master?"

His mouth still reeked of blood, and Yunjiao’s tongue pressed against his palate, suppressing the nauseating discomfort.

"Huo Qiang, get me some water."

"Yes, Master."

Huo Qiang quickly brought a cup of warm water and handed it to Huo Yunjiao.

After rinsing, the taste of blood in his mouth greatly decreased.

Huo Yunjiao looked up at Huo Qiang, saying casually: "Inform grandfather, we’ll leave early."

His illness had relapsed; he couldn’t stay at home anymore.

Champs Elysees Manor, within the country, is the best place for him to recover.

It is second only to Walton Hospital as a feng shui treasure.

The energy field of Champs Elysees Manor harmonizes with his unstable yang energy.

It’s the perfect healing place, owing to its harmony of circumstances, location, and people.

Huo Qiang took the orders, left the study, and began setting up the cars for departure, meanwhile sending someone to inform the old master.

Everything ready, Huo Yunjiao exited his study.

He carried an air of magnificence and grace, his cold, handsome countenance seemingly unruffled, unaffected as usual.

The indifferent, aloof aura he emitted unconsciously beckons admiration.

Huo Yunjiao looked as if he was born with an aura that made people want to submit to him.

For anyone who saw him in this state, he did not look like a weak person.

Huo Yunjiao, who had just walked out of his study, ran into Qin Ruan.

His body swayed slightly, the unignorable feeling within his heart rose again.

With Qin Ruan getting closer, his already weak body felt even weaker.

His heart suddenly stopped, his vision blurred.

Looking at Qin Ruan, he could barely make out her five facial features.

Third Master’s lips hooked into a charming and gentle curve, his charming voice rang out, "Why did you come out?"

"I heard Third Master is going out?"

Qin Ruan’s eyes were filled with a watery light. She didn’t feel good either. She was vomiting inside her room until her stomach was empty.

Hearing that Lin Hao said Third Master was going out, she rushed out immediately.

The reason why Lin Hao notified Huo Qiang about Third Master’s condition is not because Lin Hao is attentive.

But because Qin Ruan noticed, when Third Master was helping her upstairs, his hand uncontrollably trembled a few times.

She was feeling unwell at that time, couldn’t suppress the feeling of vomiting, and had no way to transfer the Power of the Nether Soul to Third Master, to dissipate the entwined Purple Energy and dense Evil Qi.

Qin Ruan was certain that Third Master was having a fit, yet she was powerless to help.

Huo Yunjiao was leaving, but who knew where this man would go at this time.

Qin Ruan didn’t want him to leave like this, so she intercepted him before he departed.

Huo Yunjiao looked at Qin Ruan with a loving and doting gaze.

He slowly spoke: "There are some matters to handle, the process of solving the issues at Nangong’s place are quite troublesome."

"I’ll accompany Third Master."

Qin Ruan did not expose his lies.

She held out her hand to hold Huo Yunjiao’s hand.

Third Master quickly stepped back, resisting Qin Ruan’s approach out of instinct.

Noticing that this action could lead to misunderstandings, his handsome face slightly changed.

His expression quickly returned to normal. His alluring, soulful eyes were gazing deeply into Qin Ruan’s eyes.

He explained softly: "I am dirty and don’t smell good. I don’t want you to be affected."

"It’s okay, I don’t mind."

Qin Ruan held Third Master’s hand defiantly.

She said openly, "Let’s go, I’ll accompany you downstairs."

At the moment Qin Ruan held his hand, she transmitted the Power of the Nether Soul to him at high speed.

That time, it happened that she wasn’t feeling well.

The amount of Nether Power she could transmit was limited. She could only do her best to make Third Master feel somewhat better.

Other people couldn’t see it, but she could see it clearly.

The Purple Energy and dense Evil Qi on Third Master’s body were tightly entangled.

The Purple Energy was weak, engulfed by the malicious Evil Qi, as if it was suffocated and in danger of being swallowed by the black energy any second.

Huo Yunjiao wanted to pull his hand away from Qin Ruan, but his body is very weak at that moment.

So weak that if he exerted any force, his body would topple over.

Qin Ruan’s influence on him was too great.

There wasn’t such a rapid change even when they were together before.

Everything that happened today felt like a return to the day they first met.

Besides the recurrence of his illness, there was also a sudden sense of unfamiliarity.

When he met Qin Ruan for the first time, Huo Yunjiao was attracted by her.

He had an inexplicable desire to possess her.

He wanted to throw all caution to the wind and keep her, to enjoy the pleasure of them being together.

This thought began to enlarge as Qin Ruan held his hand.

Huo Yunjiao forcefully suppressed his direct and bare thoughts, as he followed Qin Ruan to the stairwell.

In the short distance, his mind seemed to have become clearer.

Soon, Huo Yunjiao gave Qin Ruan a surprised look.

Her face seemed paler, and he immediately let go of her hand.

"Ruanruan, don’t waste your energy, you should think about your own body first."

Hu Yunjiao’s illness did not mean his rationality had disappeared.

Even if Lin Hao is a careful man, he does not always keep an eye on him.

Huo Qiang’s timely arrival, and Qin Ruan’s rush to come over at this moment, along with the immediate relief his body felt when he held her hand...

Third Master was sure that Qin Ruan had discovered his illness.

He just didn’t know when she found out.

Was it on the way, or after returning home?

"Third Master!"

Qin Ruan lifted her head, her pale little face confronting the disapproval of the Third Master.

Huo Yunjiao’s gaze became clear, but his weak body had not yet recovered to its original state.

He reached out and touched Qin Ruan’s face, with a heavy heart he said, "Miss, don’t waste your energy, what if something happens to you?"

Qin Ruan looked determined: "It won’t, I can ease your pain!"

It was only during this episode of sickness that Qin Ruan finally realized something.

She had not arranged the two chaotic Qi fields in the Third Master’s body before he left for abroad.

This had resulted in his sudden illness.

While blaming herself, she also felt heartache for this man who always carried everything on his own.

He was clearly ill, yet he endured it alone.

If she hadn’t noticed it, he would definitely have kept her in the dark.

Huo Yunjiao placed his hands on Qin Ruan’s shoulders, turned her around to face the floor-to-ceiling window behind them.

The clean glass clearly reflected their images.

The Third Master pointed to the glass, which reflected Qin Ruan’s pale little face.

"Look at your face, so pale. Rest awhile, I will go out and stay a few days to recuperate," he said.

Even in his weak state, the Third Master still maintained his elegant demeanor, remaining composed in his conversation.

Qin Ruan shifted her gaze back, frowning as she looked at the man next to her: "Where are you going?"

Huo Yunjiao spoke casually: "Ling Xuzi is selecting a suitable place for me to recuperate, where the Qi will mingle with my body. After some time, my health will naturally recover."

Could there really be such a place?

Qin Ruan doubted it.

Seeing his solemn look, she asked, "How long will it be?"

"Only a few days."

Huo Yunjiao did not hesitate, his eyes clear and calm.

Qin Ruan’s lips slightly pursed, "Can I go with you?"

She was still not at ease with him leaving alone.

Qin Ruan always reminded herself to stay true to herself when dealing with the Third Master.

However, after spending so much time together, she had grown to care for him as if he were family.

She couldn’t bear to watch him leave in pain.

Huo Yunjiao remained silent, his deep eyes quietly staring at her.

His attitude was obvious.

Qin Ruan had become too influential on him.

Today, at Nangong’s house, he almost lost his reason, acting unlike himself.

Now, because of Qin Ruan’s proximity, he had to suppress the various thoughts of hurting her that kept bubbling up in his heart.

Even if that hurt was of another, unspoken, nature.

Given Qin Ruan’s current physical condition, she couldn’t handle any further distress.

He had to suppress these possibilities in the bud.

In their silent exchange, Qin Ruan understood.

Her lips slightly parted as she said, "I understand."

Huo Yunjiao’s lips curved in a meek arch, "Miss, be good and wait for me at home."

Before leaving, he couldn’t help himself.

He leaned down and lightly kissed Qin Ruan’s forehead.

This calmed and soothed his restless heart.

A single kiss steadied the Third Master’s tumultuous feelings.

However, Qin Ruan’s heart fluttered, the feeling inexpressible.

She felt uneasy about the Third Master leaving.

His signs of distance and his deliberate creation of space would not be erased by this intimate gesture.

Huo Yunjiao turned to leave.

Qin Ruan reached out, trying to grab the hem of his clothes.

Her hand had already touched him, but she hesitated.

In her moment of hesitation, the Third Master and Huo Qiang had left, one after the other.

All Qin Ruan could do was watch as their figures slowly disappeared from her sight.

Lin Hao approached her: "You don’t look well, why don’t you go back to your room and rest?"

Qin Ruan made an affirming sound.

But she stayed in her original spot, unmoving.

She even ignored the heat radiating from the inner side of her arm.

Champs Elysees Manor.

After Huo Yunjiao arrived by car, he found that his breathing had significantly improved.

The blood circulation in his body gradually became smoother, and he felt rejuvenated.

The relaxation he felt now was something he had not felt while at Huo Mansion.

After getting out of the car, the Third Master confidently walked up the stairs.

Once his body had recouped, the image of Qin Ruan standing in the corridor of the small building, her furrowed brows and complicated look in her eyes, resurfaced in Huo Yunjiao’s mind.

He couldn’t describe the feeling in his heart, he just thought that his little girl seemed wronged.

And it was all his fault.

Yet he couldn’t approach Qin Ruan.

If he wasn’t ill and was spending his day with Qin Ruan, he could retain some control.

But during his illness, he feared losing his senses and hurting Qin Ruan.

Huo Qiang personally escorted the Third Master to his room, ordered his subordinates who had followed him to disperse, and stationed themselves around the premises.

...

Huo Mansion.

Huo Yirong, after being notified by his grandfather, learned that his younger brother had left for Champs Elysees Manor and frowned.

"Grandfather, is Ling Xuzi in Capital City?"

"Yes, Huo Qiang has informed him to head to Champs Elysees Manor."

Huo Yirong’s eyes flashed with a sullen light: "My younger brother’s sickness came without warning this time. He has been in good health recently and just after a visit to the Nangong’s house, he fell ill. Could the Nangongs have done something to him?"
