Chapter 582: Chapter 582: Qin Ruan is with the third brother, he has to protect him

Master Huo came straight to the point, he wanted to see Nangong Chang.

The news subtly changed Bei Jinzhou’s expression.

He wasn’t instructed by Su Jingshu upstairs to bring them to see Nangong Chang.

Just as he was hesitating about how to tactfully refuse, a gentle and slightly hoarse voice sounded from behind him.

"No need to rush to see him, Master, how about having some tea first?"

Bei Jinzhou turned around and found Su Jingshu standing behind him.

She was wearing a relaxed traditional dress in lotus color, her long hair loosely tied up, giving her an antique charm.

All her previous embarrassment upstairs had been thoroughly cleared away without leaving a trace.

Now, Su Jingshu was once again the high-ranking head of the Su Family as before.

She had a faint scholarly air and also the steady confidence of a family head.

Seeing Su Jingshu, who was looking like a defeated dog last night after her encounter with him, thoroughly composed herself overnight, Huo Yirong raised an eyebrow.

He had to admit, this woman was really commendable.

In the circle of Capital City’s aristocratic ladies, it’s hard to find another woman as ruthless and decisive as Su Jingshu.

Huo Yirong looked at her with a somewhat mocking expression. "I don’t mind starting our meeting with tea, but first tell me, is Nangong Chang still alive?"

His tone was slightly cold, revealing an unfathomable depth in his words.

Given Su Jingshu’s nature, if she knew that Nangong Chang had deceived her for ten years, she would definitely not let him go.

Of course, if she had truly fallen in love with him during these ten years, it would be a different story.

Su Jingshu adjusted a strand of hair near her ear and smiled faintly. "Master, you are jesting. Young Master Nangong is doing very well upstairs, the family servants take good care of him."

Bei Jinzhou, standing behind her, blurted out with a twitch of his lips.

Ever since Su Jingshu came back last night, he hadn’t seen Nangong Chang.

He remembered quite clearly that on her way downstairs just now, she didn’t have time to see Nangong Chang either.

This was clearly blatant lying.

"That’s good, then. It saves us a wasted trip."

Huo Yirong’s expression was subtle, and it was hard to tell whether he believed her or not.

He took Qin Ruan’s arm and led her to a nearby sofa to sit down.

"Sis, take a break, let’s have some tea before getting down to business."

"Sounds good."

Qin Ruan sensed some weird tension between Huo Yirong and Su Jingshu.

Once they were seated, a Su Family servant brought over some tea.

Su Jingshu, sitting nearby, cast her gaze towards Qin Ruan’s conspicuously pregnant belly.

Qin Ruan noticed that Su Jingshu was looking at her with a persistent stare.

She didn’t know what was going on, but it seemed like Su Jingshu was particularly interested in her today.

Qin Ruan took a sip of tea and gently placed the cup on the table.

She looked up at Su Jingshu, her gaze unreadably deep.

Su Jingshu met Qin Ruan’s cold gaze with an apologetic smile. "Madam, it looks like you’re about to give birth?"

Qin Ruan lightly stroked her stomach and replied lightly. "In about four months."

She was carrying twins, which usually meant that she would give birth earlier than a single child pregnancy.

Su Jingshu played with the teacup in her hand, seeming a bit absent-minded, but her eyes were glued to Qin Ruan’s belly.

Her gaze was so deep, it seemed as if she could see through Qin Ruan’s stomach and into the children inside.

Su Jingshu tried to make conversation: "I heard Madam Qin is having twins?"

"That’s correct." Qin Ruan answered with a cold tone.

She didn’t seem very interested in talking to Su Jingshu.

Su Jingshu didn’t seem to be aware of Qin Ruan’s indifference. She looked at Qin Ruan’s gentle and beautiful face, and her eyes went slightly dark.

She quickly composed herself and asked in an attentive tone, "The children are coming soon. Has Master Huo decided on names yet?"

"Su Jingshu, will you ever stop?"

Before Qin Ruan could answer, Huo Yirong, who was sitting nearby, let out an annoyed sigh.

His sinister eyes fixed on Su Jingshu.

It seemed as if he had seen through to her innermost thoughts, exposing her dirty and unspeakable intentions.

Su Jingshu, who was holding a teacup, almost dropped it, causing some of the tea to spill onto her dress.

"Miss!"

Bei Jinzhou quickly handed her a handkerchief.

"No need."

Su Jingshu waved him off and put the teacup down on the table.

She took a deep breath and met Huo Yirong’s scrutinizing gaze.

"Master Huo, I have no pride left to lose in front of you. I’m already living in disgrace. Why do you have to push me even further?"

"Hmph!" Huo Yirong sneered.

His cold gaze drilled into Su Jingshu. "Miss Su, you flatter yourself. It’s not merely living in disgrace, it’s more like living a miserable life."

Su Jingshu’s eyes constricted while her body shook gently, she clenched her fists tightly.

Her finely made-up face went pale, but she continued to control herself.

"Master Huo, as forceful as ever."

Huo Yirong curled the corners of his lips into a devilish smile, his handsome face radiating a rogue charm.

His lips moved mercilessly. "You should feel honored. After all, here with me, you still count as a person."

Su Jingshu looked down, hiding the panic in her eyes.

The mental barrier she had before coming downstairs was shattered into pieces in front of this man.

Bei Jinzhou narrowed his eyes and called out in a deep voice, "Master Huo!"

Huo Yirong looked up at Bei Jinzhou with contempt in his eyes, a chilling glare flashing. "Your master hasn’t spoken yet. What’s the rush, dog?"

His mighty presence radiated, his austere face exuded a deadly elegance.

The domineering and wild nature within him was revealed without restraint.

Feeling the overwhelming pressure from this man, Bei Jinzhou realized that he had been impulsive.

This man was from the Huo Family, he was the leader of the HEA Group, and the arrogant and wilful Master Huo.

He retracted his anger, bowed his head and said, "You’re right, Master Huo. But my young lady is after all, a woman. Please show some leniency."

Huo Yirong’s thin lips curled into an elegant smile.

But the words that he uttered next made everyone frown.

"Even though your lady is a woman, her actions are far more efficient than a man. How many women in Capital City dare to cripple their family’s outstanding male heir to seize power?"

"Master Huo!"

This time, even Su Jingshu couldn’t remain calm.

This was the Su residence, everyone here was from her family.

Although everyone knew what had occured, nobody dared to mention it.

There were some things that should never be said out loud.

Once they were spoken, they would create a disturbance within the family, and then the Su Family would be in danger.

Huo Yirong’s words were not accusatory, but a threat.

Su Jingshu had to panic.

Huo Yirong glanced at Qin Ruan, who was sitting next to him, looking quiet and obedient.

Her clean face exhibited the same chilly aura as his third younger brother.

She was his brother’s woman, so he had to protect her.

Huo Yirong lounged back in the sofa, acting like an arrogant master.

He tilted his chin upwards, his tone arrogant as he spoke, "I’m all ears, Miss Su, what do you want to say?"
