Chapter 594: Chapter 594: The Third Master in front of Ruanruan, covering indifference with gentleness

Lin Hao saw Huo Chuan and Huo Qiang and their group descending the stairs.

He whispered to Qin Ruan, "Qin Ruan, keep calm, anger hurts the body."

Qin Ruan was furious, her eyes red, and her feelings of anger could endanger the child in her belly.

Huo Chuan walked over and also tried to convince her, "Madam, please take care of your health, the master is no longer in danger."

Qin Ruan simply ignored him, she certainly knew the third master was out of danger.

Before the third master went upstairs, she had transferred most of her Nether Power to him, once again shortening her lifespan.

Only after absorbing the Evil Qi of Xiaoguang did she somewhat stabilize.

Right now, she was furious at Lin Hao, Huo Chuan, Huo Qiang, and even the third master for deceiving her.

Why were they all hiding it from her?

In particular, the deception of Lin Hao was even more intolerable to her.

Qin Ruan’s grasp on Lin Hao’s collar tightened. Redness appeared at the corners of her eyes and the anger on her face made her features even more expressive.

But it was precisely this mixture of anger and resentment that evoked pity in others.

The Huo family knew about the third master’s illness and his recovery at Champs Elysees Manor, only Qin Ruan was left in the dark.

Anyone who put themselves in Qin Ruan’s shoes would feel heartbroken.

Lin Hao stared intently into Qin Ruan’s eyes.

After a moment’s hesitation, he opened his hoarse voice promising, "Madam, if such a situation happens again, we will not hide it from you."

There would be a next time?

Qin Ruan let go of Lin Hao’s collar, suppressing the anger that surged from her heart.

Because of her rage, her throat felt painful, and she felt an inability to breathe properly.

A bitterness was welling up in her heart.

Qin Ruan’s face darkened, and sadness washed over her eyes.

She took a deep breath and calmly said, "Call the servants to pack, I’m going home!"

She didn’t want to stay here any longer.

This incident with the third master made her feel like an outsider.

She was rejected by everyone, and it felt terrible.

Qin Ruan clenched her fists. The chill of her body instantly froze everyone present, including Huo Qiang, who had just returned from sending Doctor Chen.

Was the madam seriously going to leave the household?

A look of panic appeared on Huo Qiang’s face, he quickly walked over and knelt before Qin Ruan on one knee.

"Madam, calm your anger!"

Seeing him kneeling in front of Qin Ruan, Huo Chuan was taken aback.

Huo Qiang was an elder of the Huo family and had served three generations of Family Heads. He was also the head of the Hidden Guards.

Now that he was kneeling to Qin Ruan, it signified that he recognized her as the master of the Huo family.

Huo Chuan quickly understood and knelt beside Huo Qiang, his manner calm.

"Madam, calm your anger."

The third master was still unconscious. If the madam really left, all those present today would face severe consequences.

Sharp as an arrow, Qin Ruan’s gaze was filled with cold sarcasm. "Now you ask me to calm down, what were you guys doing earlier?

You kept the third master’s illness from me. In your eyes, I’m just an outsider, why should I stick around and make myself miserable here? I should leave as soon as possible!"

Her words were like a knife, stabbing Huo Chuan and Huo Qiang.

Lin Hao knew that the main reason Qin Ruan was so angry today was because of him.

He shouldn’t have conspired to keep the secret with Huo Chuan and Huo Qiang.

It might be forgivable for others to keep it, but he definitely shouldn’t have.

Lin Hao stepped aside Huo Qiang and Huo Chuan, gradually bending his knees to the ground.

Qin Ruan frowned and quickly dodged as Lin Hao knelt down.

She stared at Lin Hao, teeth clenched, "Get up!"

Lin Hao respectfully hung his head, his voice solemn, "Madam, calm your anger. If it happens again, I’ll leave. Please don’t be angry."

Huo Qiang followed up, "This was our mistake, we failed to consider the master’s illness, we did not fulfill our responsibilities. The master is still unconscious, please stay, madam."

Huo Chuan echoed, "Madam, it was my fault. Please punish me."

All three of them were taking the blame upon themselves.

They must not let Qin Ruan leave today.

They all understood how much the third master cared for the madam.

If she were to leave, no one present could bear the master’s wrath.

Hearing that the third master was still unconscious, Qin Ruan’s heart was filled with a mix of anger and pain.

She knew well that without the Third Master’s orders, no one would have kept it from her.

Yet, she couldn’t quell the anger deep within her.

Qin Ruan massaged her forehead, speaking in weary tones, "I’m sorry, I lost my composure."

Her temper nowadays was unstable, prone to irritability.

If she didn’t release it, she didn’t know when she would explode.

Huo Qiang adopted a submissive posture, looking up at Qin Ruan. He respectfully said in a profound voice, "Madam is too harsh. It’s our fault."

Qin Ruan had nothing to say, glancing at Lin Hao who was standing aside with his head bowed.

Her gaze held a profound meaning.

Qin Ruan didn’t say a word, she turned and walked upstairs.

Her footsteps were heavy, and she made sure that each was forceful.

Kneeling in the hall, the trio heard her angry footsteps echoing in their ears.

After Qin Ruan’s figure disappeared on the second floor, Lin Hao was the first to stand.

In his life, he had kneeled to many, but apologizing to Qin Ruan today felt oddly uncomfortable.

It’s good that Qin Ruan had left, or he wouldn’t know how to face her in the future.

Huo Qiang and Huo Chuan watched him stand, exchanged a glance, and also rose to their feet.

Lin Hao looked at the two and asked without thinking, "Is the Third Master really all right?"

Huo Qiang pursed his lips, his voice slightly deep, "Things are not very good, the master is extremely weak. The doctor is helpless, he can only rest quietly."

Lin Hao’s lips twitched at the corners, his amazed eyes examined the two, admiration on his face, "Are you deceiving her again?"

Huo Qiang shook his head in denial, "Madam is from the Xuan realm, she is very clear about the Third Master’s condition now, we can’t hide it even if we want to."

The master was so weak that it would be difficult to keep it from Madam.

How could something clear at a glance be counted as deception?

Lin Hao could not understand his conceptual replacement.

He was truly afraid of Qin Ruan now.

Just a moment ago, when Huo Chuan hadn’t arrived, he was staring at Qin Ruan’s reddened eyes.

The grievance, the bitterness, and sadness on her face made him think Qin Ruan was going to cry.

But she didn’t, she just kept accusingly staring at you.

Frankly, Lin Hao was feeling a bit guilty.

He shouldn’t have kept the matter of the Third Master’s illness from Qin Ruan.

He regretted it, but there was no antidote for regret.

Qin Ruan’s blame, he could only accept it.

...

Upstairs, in the bedroom.

Qin Ruan sat by the bed, looking at the Third Master lying on the bed with eyes slightly closed and a serene expression.

Even in sleep, he exuded a sense of utmost stability.

He was always indifferent, refined, and observed due measure in everything.

His outstanding appearance and composure stood out most, never rushing in anything.

Though he seemed gentle, who knew that inside his weak body, he harbored a cold and indifferent heart.

Having been together so long, Qin Ruan felt she knew the Third Master well.

If he opened his eyes now, he would show her a tender glow in his deep, black eyes.

Especially when those loving eyes stared at you, they could intoxicate and lure you into losing yourself.

The Third Master in front of her masked his coldness with warmth.

But in front of others, the Third Master would expose his inherent coldness and ruthlessness. She had the privilege of witnessing his intimidating aura a few times.

The man was incredibly crafty; it was impossible to fathom his inner thoughts.

Whether gentle or cold Third Master, at present he could only lie calmly on the bed.

His breathing was weak, his complexion pale.

Seeing the Third Master like this made Qin Ruan feel as if there was a stone lodged in her chest, it was suffocating and she felt like she couldn’t breathe.

She extended her hand to touch the sleeping person. His skin was cool, not like a normal person’s.

The Third Master’s body temperature was so cold that it pierced Qin Ruan’s heart.

Only people with a weak body and severe loss of vitality would have such a body temperature.

Her delicate fingers followed the contour of the Third Master’s face, and lingered near his eyes and eyebrows.

Qin Ruan’s touch was gentle, her fingers lightly brushing over the features of the Third Master’s face.
