Young Master Is Being Jealous Again!
Chapter 672: Sister Ruan, did my little fox offend you?

Chapter 672: Chapter 672: Sister Ruan, did my little fox offend you?

In that moment Fu Yinru’s gaze met Qin Ruan’s, he retained his composed demeanor, casually nodding his head.

Qin Ruan let out a soft laugh, her red lips curving into a cryptic smile. "How cunning of you, Eldest Mister Fu."

She wasn’t holding back, choosing instead to rip the mask off.

The smile on Qin Ruan’s face didn’t reach her eyes.

Fu Yinru, his dark eyes meeting the fury in her beautiful eyes, spoke calmly, "A leader who emerged from nowhere in the Capital City’s Mysterious Studies World, surpassing many Heavenly Masters, she keeps a low-profile and has a deep relationship with sects like the Jade Star Sect, the Maoshan Sect, the Longevity Sect and more.

It took me a long time to find out that Madam Huo had such extraordinary power. With so many guests here today, it’s hard to avoid physical contact. Please don’t blame me, Madam Huo."

Huo Yirong instantly understood.

Fu Yinru knowingly had physical contact with her, which would inevitably involve her.

He purposely shook hands with Qin Ruan, causing them to touch.

There must have been interference by the Fu Family in the accident involving Qin Ruan on her way back.

Huo Yirong kicked the teapoy in front of him.

"Bang!"

With the bang, the tea set on the table trembled.

Mister Huo’s gloomy eyes flashed with menace and were filled with murderous intent. "Good, remarkably good. The Fu Family does have impressive ability!"

He was the one being set up by the Fu Family, yet he still went out of his way to invite Ling Xuzi.

The cold murderous glare from Mister Huo, was like a sharp sword piercing into one’s bones, causing everyone present to be awestruck and speechless.

Huo Qiang, who came in with Qin Ruan, knew that his master was genuinely enraged.

He stepped forward, lowering his voice, "Mister, the Third Master is waiting for his wife to return home – we should make this quick."

Huo Yirong cast a cold glance at him and scoffed, "Do you need to meddle in this?!"

Huo Qiang bowed his head and backed off two steps.

He knew clearly that his master had everything under control.

Fu Yueyuan seized the opportunity to step forward and justify, "Young Master Huo, with so many guests today, it’s inevitable for Yinru to make mistakes, he surely didn’t mean it.

As he spoke, he pretended to wipe off non-existent sweat on his forehead.

Huo Yirong pointed at himself, "Do you think I am a fool?"

Fu Yueyuan’s eyes widened. How was he supposed to answer this?

Huo Yirong pointed at Fu Yinru, "I’ve noted down this grudge, on behalf of Huo Family!"

Fu Yinru frowned, answering in a deep voice, "Second Master, our Fu Family doesn’t want to harbor resentment with the Huo Family."

He could tell that Huo Yirong considered this as nonsense.

He huffed and sat on the armrest of the sofa where Qin Ruan was seated.

Fu Yinru went up to Qin Ruan, "Third Master’s wife, I will take all the blame for today’s incident. I, as a guarantor, assure you that it was unintentional to involve you.

Understanding that your status is extraordinary and you are carrying a child, even if I am unscrupulous, I wouldn’t stoop so low."

The cold hostility and chilling aura that filled the room made it clear that Qin Ruan was seething with anger, and she wasn’t attempting to hide it.

She showed him no respect, scoffing, "You take all the blame? If something really happened to me and my child, your entire Fu Family wouldn’t be able to take responsibility!"

Living a second life, anyone who dares to harm her child, she will make sure they are crushed to ashes!

This is a line that no one should cross.

Fu Yinru pressed his lips together, his face hardened. "Third Master’s wife, our Fu Family just arrived in the Capital City, and our foundation is unstable. We would be foolish to offend the Huo Family.

I found out about your identity accidentally, and when I saw you today, I lost my self-control, and shook hands with you reflexively."

Qin Ruan snorted lightly, "I don’t care if you did it on purpose or not, you didn’t say anything afterwards. This is not something you can erase with a few words."

She was determined to get to the bottom of this.

Fu Yinru took a light breath and calmly asked, "What do you suggest, Third Master’s wife?"

A light smile spread across Qin Ruan’s face. Her eyes were deep and dangerous.

She casually said, "What about apologizing with your life?"

Fu Yueyuan exclaimed, "Third Master’s wife!"

Qin Ruan tidied up her ear, grimaced lightly, and looked at Fu Yueyuan with disgust, "What’s all the shouting for?"

Fu Yueyuan was truly anxious.

Ignoring the presence of people from the Huo Family, he spoke frankly, "Third Master’s wife, when we first learned of a Powerful figure in the Capital, we intended to invite them to check on Yinru’s health.

After we found out that you are a part of the Huo Family, we repeatedly postponed. The Fu Family needs your assistance. We couldn’t possibly scheme behind your back. Please, Third Master’s wife, show us mercy."

Qin Ruan squinted her eyes and laughed, "Mister Fu, I was just joking. Compared to the actions of Eldest Mister Fu, my joke is really quite insignificant, isn’t it?"

Fu Yueyuan looked at her face that revealed no emotion and was not at ease.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Since Yinru has done something wrong, he needs to take responsibility for it. The wedding between Fu Family and Xiao Family will definitely proceed as planned."

Qin Ruan raised her eyebrows, not understanding why he was mentioning the wedding between Fu and Xiao Families.

She said in a deep voice, "It has nothing to do with me."

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of the fox demon, who was trying to sneak away from the floor.

The light in Qin Ruan’s eyes dimmed, "Little demon, where are you trying to run off to?"

The fox demon, with one foot in the air, froze.

She turned to look at Qin Ruan, meeting her gloomy gaze.

The fox demon tugged nervously at the long hair hanging in front of her and argued, "I... was just going for a walk."

Qin Ruan, filled with a boiling anger, swept her icy gaze around the room and parted her red lips. "Until things are settled, no one is leaving this room!"

On hearing this, Huo Qiang immediately ordered his subordinates to guard the door.

The fox demon stomped her foot, glaring at Qin Ruan, her tone was harsh, "I told you it wasn’t me! Who knows which vixen set you up! Why are you blaming me!"

Qin Ruan’s gaze was frosty, and her voice icy cold, "Your scent was left at the scene, so you say it wasn’t you, and it’s not you? Who will vouch for you?!"

The fox demon grinded her teeth, "That’s impossible, I haven’t left this place at all today."

Qin Ruan: "Then tell me, why did the Fox Technique Illusion trap the people around me, nearly causing a major accident, how did your traces end up at the scene?"

"I have no id ..." The fox demon’s rebuttal suddenly stopped mid-sentence.

He then murmured to himself, "Could it be him...?"

Qin Ruan’s eyes darkened, "Who is he?"

"Oh! It’s quite lively here, did I choose the wrong time to come?"

The familiar phrase reached the ears of those present.

Everyone in the room looked in the direction of the voice.

A young man leaning against the door frame of the rest room came into their sight.

He had average features but a pleasant appearance, a bright smile on his face, and an aura of warmth and brightness about him.

When Qin Ruan saw who it was, her dark eyes displayed confusion.

She knew this person. It was Hu Yixian, her eldest brother’s classmate.

He was not a native of Capital City, but was born in Liaodong, and later attended school in Capital City through his father’s connections.

His family had a long-standing tradition of horse-breeding.

"Sister Ruan is also here."

Hu Yixian saw Qin Ruan and casually greeted her.

"Brother Yixian."

Qin Ruan’s response was neither particularly warm nor distant.

Hu Yixian straightened up and walked into the rest room with an unhurried pace.

The smile in his eyes faded when he saw the fox demon.

Fu Yueyuan didn’t know Hu Yixian, and judging from his casual attire, he didn’t look like he was here for the banquet.

He asked, "Who are you? Who allowed you in?"

Hu Yixian turned his dark eyes to Fu Yueyuan, "I’m here to fetch a naughty pet from my home."

He pointed casually at the fox demon, behaving as casually as if he was strolling in his own backyard.

"Hu Yixian, I’m nearly flayed alive, and you only show up now!"

Seeing him, the fox demon seemed to have secured a lifeline and quickly hid behind him.

Seeing this, Qin Ruan massaged her forehead. The situation was getting more complicated.

Hu Yixian’s family had a legacy in the horse-breeding vocation.

Ling Xuzi had mentioned before that the fox demon was a family spirit.

Hu Yixian’s arrival now confirmed that the fox demon belonged to him.

But why had his family’s fox spirit gone to Fu Yinru, to covertly consume her yang energy?

Hu Yixian fixed a chilling stare on the fox demon, deriding, "You’re so desperate for men, you don’t even wear clothes!"

The fox demon’s eyes welled up, "No, I didn’t do it, they’re bullying me!"

She pointed to all those present in the room.

Her pitiful appearance, and her quivering, naked body, led everyone to believe she was the victim.

Hu Yixian, however, knew her well, and rolled his eyes at her, "What have you done?"

The fox demon twiddled her fingers and mumbled, "I secretly consumed a human’s yang energy."

Hu Yixian laughed scornfully, "Useless!"

The fox demon wasn’t angry at his words, and with her bare arms that weren’t covered by a particle of fabric, she hugged Hu Yixian’s waist.

She grumbled with grievance, "You vanished for so long, I couldn’t find you."

Ignoring her nudity, Hu Yixian pulled her out from behind him.

Just looking at Qin Ruan’s face, he knew his fox demon did more than just consume human yang energy.

He brought the fox demon before Qin Ruan, "Sister Ruan, did my little fox offend you?"

His straightforward approach made Qin Ruan see Hu Yixian in a new light.

Her eyes narrowed slightly, "She nearly killed me and the child in my belly."

Upon hearing this, Hu Yixian’s gaze, sharp as arrows, turned to the fox demon beside him.

He roared in fury, "Little Fox!"

The fox demon widened her eyes and quickly denied, "I didn’t do it, I really didn’t!"

Hu Yixian observed her from top to bottom, his merciless gaze fixed on her teary eyes, as if attempting to peer into the depths of her soul.

He squinted lightly and muttered, "You wouldn’t dare!"

With a grievance, the fox demon responded, "I just took a bit of a human’s yang energy, but murder? I wouldn’t do that."

Hu Yixian knew her well.

She was a century-old fox demon who had been with him for twenty-six years.

She would never have the audacity to kill.

Hu Yixian turned back and said to Qin Ruan, "Little fox claims she didn’t do it."

Qin Ruan looked into his eyes and responded in a low voice, "I want proof."

The proof came when Hu Yixian pushed the fox demon toward Qin Ruan, "Let this little demon explain to you herself."

The fox demon turned to look at Hu Yixian, as if he had betrayed her.

Her lips pressed together and she bristled with resentment, "Hu Yixian, you’re bullying me too!"

Ignoring Hu Yirong’s dangerous gaze of inquiry, Hu Yixian casually sat next to Qin Ruan.

Leaning backwards, he turned to the fox demon with a smile, "This is called clearing suspicion. Good girl, once you’ve made your case, I will take you away."

The fox demon glanced at Qin Ruan and murmured, "It was a hermaphrodite male fox. He probably did it."

Qin Ruan frowned, a hint of confusion in her eyes, "Hermaphrodite?"

No one noticed the fleeting awkwardness on Hu Yixian’s face.

The fox demon nodded emphatically, her eyes sincere, "Yes!"

Qin Ruan gestured for the fox demon to come closer.

After a moment of hesitation, the fox demon stepped forward.
