Chapter 646: Chapter 646: Grandpa San’s Unique Charm, the Two Extremes of Restraint and Indulgence

Huo Yunjiao gently pinched Qin Ruan’s hand back.

He whispered, "I’m off to relieve myself, you browse through the dresses for now."

Qin Ruan didn’t let go, holding the cool and slender hand of third master, she asked slowly, "Don’t you want to hold me?"

When she uttered these words, Qin Ruan, as always, looked calm and unruffled.

It seemed as if the matter did not carry the same sort of shyness and shame as before.

When Huo Yunjiao lowered his gaze to look at her, his thick long eyelashes cast a fan-shaped shadow on his cheeks.

The depth of his eyes made his lazy gaze seem even more dangerously seductive.

The dangerous glint in his eyes was as if he couldn’t wait to devour Qin Ruan right at that moment.

Facing his intense gaze, Qin Ruan always felt like she was about to be sucked in by those eyes.

Huo Yunjiao took a deep breath, "Girl, I was teasing you earlier."

His voice was slow and deep, filled with unspeakable complexities.

Huo Yunjiao stepped forward and gathered Qin Ruan into his arms.

"Thank you."

He thought he knew Qin Ruan quite well. The girl was dependent on him, trusted him, and even showed a side of docility she never had in front of others.

That Qin Ruan had managed to do this indicated just how significant a place he held in her heart.

"Oh, alright, go ahead."

Qin Ruan nonchalantly replied, let go of third master’s hand, turned around and continued selecting lavish and exquisite dresses.

She kept her lips tightly pressed together, struggling to keep them from curling up.

The corners of Huo Yunjiao’s lips hooked upwards slightly as he turned and left.

In a short while, the beast kept in a cage had calmed down.

After being unintentionally aroused by Qin Ruan, he felt rather uncomfortable with the stains on his clothes.

Third master still decided to freshen up in the bathroom.

The sound of the bathroom door being opened and then gently closed reached Qin Ruan’s ears.

She turned her gaze towards the door separating her from third master, and let her lips slowly turn upwards, no longer suppressing her happiness.

A pleasant ringtone chimed from within her bag.

Qin Ruan took out her cellphone. The caller ID displayed was Wei Xishi.

She answered the his call, putting the phone to her ear.

Wei Linchen’s exhausted voice travelled through the receiver.

"Qin Ruan, I’ve sorted out things at the school. All the little puppets lurking around the campus have been dealt with, and the school has paid the final installment. I’ll transfer it to you on WeChat later."

Qin Ruan responded: "Okay."

She had also lent a hand in this matter, so part of the remuneration was hers.

Wei Linchen continued: "The damage to the grove is serious. I spoke with the school authorities. I told them it’s a demon tree, they are scared that some evil influence may cause trouble, and they want to clear the grove."

Qin Ruan: "There’s not much difference whether they clear it or not, let them be."

Wei Linchen picked up on something: "The main body of the Huangjue tree has been destroyed, will it come back?"

Qin Ruan had in her hand a smoky grey dress with short fluttering sleeves. The skirt was adorned with intricate hand embroidery that made her reluctant to let go of it.

She said to Wei Linchen, "Not very likely."

The main body of the Huangjue tree had been destroyed, yet it had managed to escape in advance, implying that they had already given up on Odi School.

As for whether they would make any further kills elsewhere, she had no knowledge.

They would need Lan An to find the Huangjue tree.

The Huangjue tree was cultivated from Lan An’s tree essence. Over the years, the imprint of their scents had been deeply imprinted on their souls.

As the main body of the tree essence, Lan An could locate the Huangjue tree without much effort.

She had requested Qiao Nanyuan to travel to Qi Mountain in Cloud City to bring Lan An and Lingfeng.

If the baby in her belly had been younger, she would not have troubled Qiao Nanyuan and would have gone there herself.

But the journey to Cloud City and climbing up the mountain was strenuous, round trip.

She could bear it, but the child in her belly might protest.

Wei Linchen sighed with relief, "That’s good, there still some unclean things in Odi School, but it’s not too serious. If you don’t have other arrangements, I’ll hand things over here and that will be the end of it."

"Hmm."

Qin Ruan took off the ash-colored dress and headed for the wardrobe.

She asked, "Is there anything else?"

Wei Linchen paused before saying, "When you return to school, let’s chat if you have time. I’m quite interested in you."

This interest was not only in Qin Ruan herself.

He was also interested in her peculiar abilities, her Supreme Treasure Weapon, and the sect she belonged to.

"I’ll find the time." Qin Ruan did not refuse.

She understood the underlying meaning of Wei Linchen’s words.

In the WeChat group ’Emperor Beitai Reigns,’ Wei Xishi was a familiar peer to her.

And Wei Linchen was a young professor at Shengshi Academy, whom she respected and quite liked.

Wei Linchen’s tone was cheery, "Alright then, I won’t bother you anymore, we’ll be in touch."

Qin Ruan agreed and hung up the phone.

She pushed open the wardrobe door and walked in.

Huo Yunjiao, freshly showered, walked out of the bathroom in his bathrobe.

Not seeing Qin Ruan in the room, he glanced towards the closet.

Spotting the moving figure inside, understanding flashed in his eyes.

He rubbed his hair dry, walked to the side of the bed, and smoothly picked up the tablet on the table.

Seeing the unread emails displayed on the screen, he casually tossed the towel aside.

The HEA Group had an ongoing project that he had been overseeing.

Due to the large amount involved in the transaction, many issues needed to be repeatedly verified.

With his fingers glowing from the recent bath, Huo Yunjiao leaned against the headboard, swiping across the screen.

Muffled movements could be heard within the closet as the door pushed open from the inside.

Huo Yunjiao lowered his gaze and examined his attire.

He discarded the tablet onto the bed, and re-tied the slightly loose belt of his bathrobe.

The enticing view partially hinted, was quickly concealed with his swift movements.

Just out of the bath, ’Third Master Huo’ exuded faint charm and a touch of rogue elegance.

Once dressed, Master Huo emanated a compelling blend of self-restraint and contradiction.

This was a sensuality that did not need hiding, combined with his stunning appearance, it was not shocking, but out of the ordinary.

It inevitably attracted others, bewitching them with this aura of restrain.

Resrain and release are two extremes.

Each one provoking an irresistible pull.

’Third Master Huo’, possessed both these qualities. The contradictions exuded a unique charm that was uniquely his.

Qin Ruan, in the ash-gray dress made from luxurious and noble material, stepped out of the changing room.

The dress didn’t bare her shoulders or arms, it was modest, elegant, and dazzling.

On Qin Ruan, it exhibited her gentle and soft side.

The skirt was adorned with hand-embroidered patterns, the top had cut-out designs, incorporated with similar embroidered patterns using a unique technique.

This dress enhanced Qin Ruan’s elegance, calmness, and dignified demeanor, a sight to behold.

Qin Ruan looked up at ’Third Master’ languishing by the bed.

She held up her skirt and made a turn in front of the wardrobe.

"Third Master, is it beautiful?"

"Beautiful."

Huo Yunjiao nodded, giving a sincere response.

His eyes lingered on Qin Ruan, as if he couldn’t get enough, unable to tear his gaze away.

Qin Ruan was young, her meticulously sculpted innocent face often made others treat her like a child.

But once dressed in the modest dress, her every gesture carried a captivating women charm.
