Chapter 773: Chapter 773: Huo Yirong was poisoned and her life is uncertain, the Third Master made his move
Lin Hao hit the brakes, bringing the car to a steady stop in front of Lord Huo’s small building.
He turned around: "Madam, we have arrived."
Qin Ruan responded, opened the car door, and prepared to help her second brother down.
The corner of her eye caught sight of Huo Qiang and Huo Zhi rushing out of the small building.
The two had very severe expressions, a hint of anger flashing in their eyes.
Qin Ruan paused, her pupils rapidly contracting.
"Where is the Lord?"
She didn’t realize how cold her voice was, full of worry and panic.
Huo Qiang and Huo Zhi were not expecting the Lady to return.
The two men held their items, their faces became serious as they respectfully approached her.
Huo Qiang bowed slightly, initiating the conversation: "My Lady, Our Lord is with Second Master."
"What happened?"
If Qin Ruan didn’t realize something big had happened to the Huo Family by now, she really hasn’t been making good use of her eyes.
The number of people outside the Huo Mansion had multiplied, and on the way here, the strange vibes she felt from the shadows around the mansion indicated that a considerable number of members had been added.
Looking again at Huo Qiang and Huo Zhi, even though they had reigned in their emotions, they couldn’t hide the suppressed anger within them.
They felt challenged, revealing an intense smell of blood, as if they had been close to life and death for many years.
This was anger, fear, concern, a murderous intent that was still being released from their bones despite their best efforts to suppress it.
Huo Qiang remained silent, Huo Zhi glanced at him, also remaining silent.
"Did something happen to the Lord?!"
Qin Ruan approached the two men, her voice was chillingly calm.
Huo Zhi instinctively responded: "No!"
Huo Qiang lifted his head, revealing red eyes, and shook his head, "My Lady, the Lord is fine."
Qin Ruan stared at the items in their hands: "What’s that you’re holding?"
Huo Qiang revealed the documents and the Lord’s usual office computer he was holding.
He spoke steadily, "The Bolin Family will be leaving tomorrow. The Lord has important matters to discuss with Young Master Nicholas. He wants everything finalized tonight, so he asked Huo Zhi and me to fetch these items."
Qin Ruan’s eyes were icy and unfathomable.
She stared at Huo Qiang’s eyes and asked word by word, "Are you lying to me?"
Huo Qiang bowed his head, "I dare not deceive."
Qin Ruan lifted her chin, returning her voice to normal, full of whimsical caprice, "I was feeling a bit bored just as I arrived, might as well pay him a visit."
She was like a spoiled child, knowing the Lord was busy, yet still insisting on disturbing him.
Huo Qiang’s ordinary face remained calm, giving nothing away. His voice was evenly modulated, "Madam, wouldn’t it be better if you rested first after returning?"
Qin Ruan ignored him, turned to Lin Hao who was still in the car, and ordered, "You take my second brother upstairs to rest, the same room as last night. Song Qing, you’re coming with me."
With a few words she made her decisions, her demeanor quite forceful.
A look of helplessness flashed in Huo Qiang’s eyes. He closed them briefly, ultimately refraining from further obstruction.
...
The small building where Huo Yirong resided was not far away, and they arrived quickly.
Qin Ruan didn’t expect it to be this bustling, with Grandfather Huo, Huo Hongxing, Second Uncle Huo, eldest cousin Huo Junxin, cousin-in-law Long Wei, and Lord Huo, who was discussing matters with Nicholas’ team in a side hall.
She didn’t believe that the Huo Family was gathered because of the oil resources in Fuluo Country.
Such benefits would not be enough to draw everyone together in this place.
The grand hall was filled with some well-built men in suits, clearly formidable fighters.
From their attire and positions, it was clear that these people were not part of the Huo Family.
They occasionally looked upstairs, their faces indifferent.
"Ruanruan is here."
Seated in the center of the hall, Grandfather Huo looked like he had aged more than ten years all at once.
His usually vibrant face was now slightly discolored, his eyes betraying inescapable worry and pain.
Wearing her boots, Qin Ruan approached Grandfather Huo and affectionately called out, "Grandfather."
She nodded at Huo Hongxing sitting next to the old man and the middle-aged man beside him, giving a voice to greet: "Father, Second Uncle."Huo’s father seemed somewhat haggard, his eyes revealing pain.He fixed his eyes on Qin Ruan, his voice somewhat deep: "Do you know too?"Qin Ruan blinked without making a sound, currently she knew nothing.However, she knew something serious must have happened tonight.Looking at the middle-aged man sitting next to Huo Father, the man seemed well-cultured, his eyebrows filled with fine lines.This man’s face looked like it was carved from the same mould as Huo Yirong.Qin Ruan remembered that the last time she saw Huo’s second uncle, he was brimming with energy. Now, looking at him again, his face was pale, and there were strands of white hair at his temples, and his dry lips trembled slightly.This was clearly a look of severe grief.Seeing Qin Ruan arriving, Huo Yunjiao left Nicholas’s team and walked out of the side hall.He cast an unhappy glance at Huo Qiang and Huo Zhi.The two men lowered their heads in fear, knowing that their master was displeased.Huo Yunjiao walked to Qin Ruan’s side, seeing that she hadn’t even changed her clothes, he gently said, "You just got back, why didn’t you rest?"Qin Ruan felt somewhat oppressive in front of Huo’s elders, she looked up at the gentleman before her, curiosity in her eyes.She really wanted to know what had happened tonight.Realizing that the matter could not be kept secret, Huo Yunjiao rubbed her hair and whispered, "Second brother had an accident...""Ahhhh!"A shrill scream came from upstairs.Uncle Huo, Huo Junxin, immediately stood up.Following that, Huo’s grandfather was tremblingly helped up by Huo Hongxing.Everyone’s eyes were filled with heartbreak, worry, and unwillingness as they stared upstairs.Among them, the postures of Huo’s second uncle and Huo Junxin were the most heartbreaking.The father and son tightly clenched their fists, their tense bodies seemed strong, but they gave off a feeling as if they could collapse at any moment.Hearing the scream from upstairs suddenly, Qin Ruan’s face also changed.The voice from upstairs was hoarse, full of pain, she could tell it was Huo Yirong.He had an accident, what happened?Qin Ruan’s eyebrows slightly creased, her face showing concern.Huo Yunjiao held her in his arms and took her to the side hall.Huo Qiang and Huo Zhi quickly followed with things they had brought from the master’s residence.Qin Ruan was seated across from Nicholas, on the chair where Yunjiao had previously sat.Huo Yunjiao sat next to her. In a few words, he told Qin Ruan what had happened to Huo Yirong.Nicholas was leaving tomorrow, so Huo Yirong knew that the affairs of Fuluo Country needed to be finalized as soon as possible. After a busy day at work, he had cancelled all engagements for the night and hurried home.It was on his way home that the accident happened.Possibly hearing some sort of movements, Prince Jimmy and the King of Tuluo Country teamed up in the best interests of the Royal Family.They sent a Gu Master with high level skills from Fuluo Country to launch a sneak attack on Huo Yirong.Huo Yirong was attacked by the poisonous insects, and now his life is hanging in the balance.Since he was brought home, he has been vomiting blood non-stop.Everyone understood why Fuluo acted this way.Huo family got the news and immediately invited people from the Gongsun Family. Gongsun Yibo, the family head, brought all the Gu Masters from their family.This family had been studying poisonous insects for hundreds of years. Even though they were not as advanced as the Fuluo Country, who were the founders of the poisonous insect technique, they were still a decent family in terms of both Gu Masters and the technique, excluding Fuluo Country.Gongsun Yibo, who Qin Ruan had met at the boxing match last time, was the family head.He, along with all the Gu Masters from Gongsun Family, was upstairs working on a treatment plan for the poisoned Huo Yirong.Suddenly, Huo Yunjiao’s mobile phone rang.Seeing the display of the incoming call, his sharp peach blossom eyes were so dark that not a hint of light could be seen.
His eyes were filled with deep shades, hiding too many emotions that people couldn’t see through.The call was answered. Unknown to what was said on the other side, a slight curve appeared on Huo Yunjiao’s beautiful lips.The smile was of satisfaction and pleasure, but it also carried a sense of ruthlessness and cruelty.
