Chapter 685: Chapter 685: Master Huo: The Universe is Undecided, Anything is Possible

Hu Yixian, who had just got comfortable on the sofa, jolted up in surprise upon hearing Qin Ruan’s words.

Fortunately, Qin Jingcen was tightly holding his hand, preventing him from losing his composure.

Qin Jingcen looked at Qin Ruan with a smile, "Does your sister-in-law look like some star?"

Qin Ruan pondered and then shook her head, "I can’t remember, but she looks familiar."

She rarely paid attention to the celebrities in the entertainment industry, although she did have some impression of those who had become very popular.

However, her sister-in-law didn’t look like any of them.

Hu Yixian nervously started to speak, "Ruan..."

He was about to call Ruan sister and decided otherwise, halting mid-sentence.

The young master of the Qin family intervened, "Ayan, this is my younger sister Qin Ruan, you can call her Ruanruan."

Hu Yixian lifted his head and gave a shy smile, his eyes unable to meet the cold, intimidating gaze of Qin Ruan.

He whispered, "Ruanruan, do you think I look familiar? Many people have asked if I was some celebrities."

"So that’s it."

Qin Ruan’s deep gaze continued to study Hu Yixian’s face.

The new sister-in-law had slender eyes and eyebrows that could allure souls, and her seductive charm was captivating to countless men.

She exuded a captivating aura of feminine charm, blended with a hint of sunshine, a combination that made men yearn to conquer her.

The more she studied this face, the more familiar it seemed, but she couldn’t recall where she’d seen it.

The head of the Qin family was increasingly satisfied with his new daughter-in-law. Grinning widely, he asked, "Jingcen, now that you brought her home, when are you planning to get engaged?"

Hu Yixian was shocked once again, almost leaping from the sofa that was still warm from his seat.

Getting married... Was he serious?

Qin Jingcen reassuringly patted Hu Yixian’s hand, faced Qin Anguo’s slightly stern gaze, and replied calmly, "Ayan is not ready yet, let’s talk about the engagement later."

Qin Anguo’s face fell, his eyes clouding with exhaustion and melancholy, "You are not getting any younger. A quick settlement will put my mind at ease. In case something untoward happens to me, how can I face your mother..."

He was using his deceased mother as a bargaining chip.

The eldest Qin clenched his teeth, "At the latest, next year. We should have a transition period."

Fearing that he might go back on his word, Qin Anguo straightened up, "Then it’s next year. Don’t try to delay it again."

Qin Jingcen nodded calmly, "Understood."

But Hu Yixian was far from calm.

He had never thought about marrying his friend.

He abruptly stood up. The three members of Qin family turned their heads to focus their attention on Hu Yixian.

His expression was somewhat troubled, his lips pressed tightly together as if enduring some hidden sorrow.

Qin Jingcen’s eyes narrowed under his piercing eyebrows. He stood up and held Hu Yixian’s hand. "It’s Ayan’s first time here, she might not be used to it. I’ll take her to rest for a while."

Qin Anguo waved, "Go ahead."

He hoped that they would soon have a child and bypass the engagement stage, hastening the marriage.

The eldest Qin unceremoniously dragged Hu Yixian, hurriedly heading upstairs.

Watching their retreating figures, Qin Ruan found that her sister-in-law’s stride was brisk and lively.

The more she observed her sister-in-law, the more familiar she seemed.

Qin Anguo picked up a juice from the table and offered it to Qin Ruan.

He smiled and asked, "Ruanruan, what do you think of your sister-in-law? Isn’t she pretty?"

Qin Ruan accepted the offered cup and nodded, "Yes, she is beautiful."

It was undeniable that Hu Yan was very beautiful, even more outstanding than some young actresses in the entertainment circle.

Qin Anguo stroked his chin, full of anticipation. "By the time you have your baby, your elder brother should be married. Not only will I have a grandchild, but I can also look forward to seeing my grandson."

His gaze slid down towards Qin Ruan’s burgeoning belly.

"You should give birth soon, right?"

Sipping the sweet and sour juice, the satisfied taste made Qin Ruan squint her eyes, "There’s still more than two months left."

"So, you’re due in February next year?"

"Yes."

Qin Anguo reached over to touch her belly and sighed lightly, "Hurry up and be born. Seeing those old folks brag about their grandchildren makes me feel envious."

The corners of Qin Ruan’s lips curved upward. "Dad, don’t worry. After my elder and younger brothers get married, there will be plenty of children running around you."

Speaking of his two sons, Qin Anguo frowned, "Both of them are troublesome!"

Qin Ruan’s eyebrows raised slightly, "Since my elder brother’s marriage has been settled, my younger brother has been behaving rather well lately."

The smile faded from Qin Anguo’s face, replaced by a stern look, "Didn’t you notice your elder brother’s indifferent attitude? This boy is craftier than a fox. I wonder what schemes he has in mind. I suspect he just found someone to appease me."

But Qin Ruan thought otherwise. She had noticed the clasped hands of Qin Jingcen and Hu Yixian.

There was no sign of incongruity in the couple’s demeanour.

The only anomaly was the faint demonic energy on Hu Yixian, which was not intense but distinctly present.

Qin Ruan tried to soothe her father, "Dad, this is the first time my elder brother has brought his girlfriend home. He must really like her. Don’t worry."

Qin Anguo shook his head, remaining silent.

He often wondered whether his eldest son would ever find someone he liked.

Over the years, he had never seen his son with a girl.

Qin Anguo leaned back on the sofa and brought up Qin Mei, "Your younger brother has been quiet recently, but who knows when his old habits could resurface."

Qin Ruan tried to placate him, "My younger brother has always been like this, and hasn’t caused much trouble in all these years. He’s not like those rich kids who mess around with things they shouldn’t, ending up causing a lot of trouble."

"He dare!" Qin Anguo snorted coldly, "If he dares to take up bad habits, I will break his legs!"

"Yes, yes, yes, under your strict guidance, Second Brother is very restrained."

Qin Ruan kept flattering with kind words.

Despite Qin Anguo’s apparent distaste for his two sons, he is actually proud of them.

For children from families like theirs, the slightest misstep could lead them astray, and it would be impossible to correct it.

Qin Jingcen and Qin Mei have been sensible since they were young.

One could say that they make small mistakes frequently, but they never make big ones. How could Qin Anguo not be satisfied?

However, this child simply couldn’t handle praise, so he rarely praised him, in order to prevent the two brothers from becoming carried away with themselves.

...

Capital City, a certain underground boxing ring.

On the second floor, in the main viewing pavilions sat two elaborate dressed men, filled with noble demeanor and extraordinary elegance. There was a timeless wrath about them.

Behind them stood over a dozen bodyguards, indicating their extremely high status.

Huo Yunjiao hung up the phone with Qin Ruan, and the man beside him glanced meaningfully at her.

This man, sitting there, was about 1.8 meters tall, with a robust figure, trendy short hair, distinctive rugged features, and an aura of masculinity.

"Third Master, why don’t you bring out your excessively clingy family member?"

Huo Yunjiao put her cell phone on the table and turned her head to look at the man sitting next to her, Gongsun Yibo.

This man was the youngest patriarch of the Gongsun family, a few years older than Third Master.

When Gongsun Yibo looked over and made eye contact with her, the corner of Huo Yunjiao’s mouth slowly curled up.

Under the dim light of the underground boxing ring, his soft, handsome face was filled with love and tenderness.

The hand that Third Master had placed on the armrest of the chair lightly tapped the table, and he said softly, "She’s still a young girl, this is not the right occasion to bring her."

Gongsun Yibo did not fear him, and he chuckled lightly: "You truly spoil your Darling, is there anyone in Capital City who is unaware of the origins of Miss Huo?"

"West City’s underground boxing ring is filled with beasts fighting each other, it’s bloody and cruel. My boxing ring is an official one. I suppose if Mrs. Huo ever came, who had experienced the brutal fights among beasts, she would probably not be interested in my humble place."

A shadow crossed the bottom of Huo Yunjiao’s eyes, and her voice was as calm as before: "People have exaggerated it. Ruanruan is very well-behaved."

Gongsun Yibo looked somewhat skeptical: "Really?"

All the young masters of the various large families in the Capital City were in awe of Third Master, only he wasn’t afraid.

Their relationship seemed not cordial, but they could be considered as close friends.

Huo Yunjiao’s sexy mouth corner raised a faint arc, and a doting smile appeared on her handsome face.

She nodded to Gongsun Yibo, whose eyes were full of curiosity.

"Tsk, tsk..."

Gongsun Yibo instantly lost interest, and turned his head to continue watching the ring below.

Two men, bare-chested, displaying their strong bodies and developed muscles, were competing with each other.

They didn’t have any weapons in their hands, they were just brawling.

The spectators under the window, their excited screams and roars flowed and ebbed constantly.

The man on the stage, wearing black shorts, landed a straight punch on half of his opponent’s face, which was covered with horizontal meat.

The moment this punch went down, the spectators sitting under the stage immediately let out an exclamation.

The opponent of the man in black shorts was a man, who had his hair half-long and a blue headband tied around his forehead.

Bright red blood gushed out of his mouth, mixed with a few pieces of bloody teeth.

The spectators, seeing this scene, their roars deafening, their excited screams containing a hint of madness.

Huo Yunjiao and Gongsun Yibo, sitting in the main viewing room on the second floor, clearly saw the frenzied faces of the crowd below.

Most of these people had grim faces, their eyes flashing with excited red lights, and their twisted features were inexplicably strange.

They were not at all frightened by the bloody spectacle, instead, they experienced boundless joy from seeing the blood spilling everywhere.

Gongsun Yibo, supporting his chin with one hand, looked leisurely at Huo Yunjiao.

"Third Master, it looks like you lost this round."

Huo Yunjiao looked at him with composure, her tone somewhat cold: "The game is not over yet, anything is possible."

Just now, the two of them had made a transaction.

They each chose a boxer, and set the win or lose according to their performance.

If Third Master won, the Gongsun family would send people to follow the Huo family’s secret guards to Fuluo Country.

If Gongsun Yibo won, he had the right to refuse this proposition.

The boxer wearing black shorts was backed by Gongsun Yibo.

While the other, half long-haired, bandanna-wearing man, was backed by Third Master.

A game to decide the winner, three rounds, best two out of three.

At the moment, it was obvious that the candidate backed by Gongsun Yibo had the upper hand.

The boxer chosen by Third Master was clearly at a disadvantage.

Suddenly, another deafening roar erupted from the stands below.

Huo Yunjiao and Gongsun Yibo looked down.

Turns out, the man with half-long hair and a bandanna had stood back up.

He started fighting fiercely once again with the boxer chosen by Gongsun Yibo.

This time, the two were evenly matched.

Gongsun Yibo watched without batting an eyelid, he just said, "Tsk... what a pity."

Huo Yunjiao crossed her hands and rested them on her abdomen, sitting elegantly yet lazily.

He seemed not to care about the outcome of this match, his cold, emotionless eyes just watching indifferently.
