Chapter 865: Chapter 865: Go back and tell your family head, stay away from me!
Qin Ruan gathered the concealed danger in her eyes and her red lips curved into a cold arc as she said softly, "It’s nothing."
She held Grandpa Huo’s wrist, detecting his body with Nether Power and found there were no injuries, which made her look slightly better.
However, this did not quench the anger in her heart. Qin Ruan’s gaze was tightly fixed on Changyuan floating in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
Changyuan’s body was tense, the will to survive made him want to flee immediately, but under Qin Ruan’s threatening gaze, he dared not move an inch.
Huo Yunjiao soothingly touched Qin Ruan’s head, "Still saying it’s nothing, but your face clearly says you’re very angry."
Qin Ruan was slightly stunned and said quickly, "I’ll go wash—"
She stood up and walked toward the bathroom, her icy gaze still fixed on Changyuan.
Grandpa Huo looked at her retreating figure, chuckled, and shook his head, reaching out to grab the water cup on the table.
Inside the bathroom.
Just as the door closed, Changyuan immediately appeared in the not-so-small space.
Qin Ruan crossed her arms and stared at him, asking in a heavy voice, "What are you here for?"
Changyuan, who used to look down on everything, could no longer maintain his composure and said guiltily, "I came to check on the two young masters for my master."
Qin Ruan said sarcastically, "Then why come to the bedroom?"
Changyuan’s face was stern, and he continued to explain guiltily, "I sensed you were back, so I found a place to hide."
Qin Ruan looked at him with a speechless face, "Do you think I look like a fool?"
"..." Changyuan opened his mouth then closed it sheepishly.
Qin Ruan took off her coat, casually threw it onto a nearby rack, and said slowly, "Changyuan, regardless of what identity you and Xia Yunchen have, we have always kept to our own. Don’t think about disrupting my life now or else I won’t mind battling it out with you to the death.
Keep in mind, ancient fierce beasts are not impossible to seal. Meritorious folks are ultimately human, and there are always those who covet such merits, leading to unforeseen dangerous deaths."
Deep red pupils in Changyuan’s eyes surged with intense dissatisfaction as he frowned and explained, "Neither my master nor I have any ill intentions towards you."
Qin Ruan said coldly, "But you’ve disrupted my life now!"
Her eyes swirled with fierce light, her aura sharp, releasing a strong oppressive feeling.
The sudden intrusion of Xia Yunchen and Changyuan into her life appeared very suspicious no matter how one looked at it.
Her life with Grandpa Huo and the kids was very stable, and in this lifetime, she would not allow any accidents to happen again.
Knowing today’s matter couldn’t end well, Changyuan sighed lightly and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want?"
"Go back and tell your Family Head to stay away from me," Qin Ruan’s lips curved up into a thin arc, her face casting a gloomy and cold voice, "And you—get lost!"
In Changyuan’s red pupils, there was not a trace of resentment, even nodding very politely, he obediently vanished from Qin Ruan’s sight.
Qin Ruan stood in place staring at the spot where Changyuan had been, her raging anger disappearing without trace, so quickly it almost seemed like an illusion.
She showered at the quickest speed and when she walked out of the bathroom, it had already been half an hour.
Huo Yunjiao was leaning against the headboard; somehow, he had fallen asleep again, his messy hair scattered over his forehead, adding a slightly lazy, disheveled beauty which softened his usual dignified and calm demeanor.
Qin Ruan walked up, helping him to lie down.
During this, Huo Yunjiao half-opened his eyes and asked her, "Are you done washing?"
Qin Ruan withdrew her hand, "Yes, go to sleep."
Huo Yunjiao extended her hand and pulled the person into the bedroll, whispering, "Let’s sleep together."
His arms encircled Qin Ruan’s waist, and his breath fell on her neck and shoulder, he sighed contentedly.
Qin Ruan lay in the warm embrace, holding the hand at her waist, as usual, she tended to the other’s body.
...
Late at night, hospital.
Ke Zhibin, on his way to the hospital, discovered that his Heavenly Eye that could see Puppet Monsters was gradually disappearing.
Initially, he could clearly see the shapes of the Puppet Monsters, including the expressions on their faces. As time passed, the Puppet Monsters he saw turned into clusters of black mist.
Upon arriving at the hospital and entering the ward where his mother and younger son were staying, he could no longer see any Puppet Monsters at all.
Ke Zhibin felt deeply regretful yet relieved to have found the source of the constant misfortunes befalling the Ke Family recently.
Hearing the sound of the ward door, the man sitting in front of the hospital bed turned around.
Seeing the visitor, he stood up swiftly, "Dad, my little brother is out of danger now!"
Ke Yihui resembled Ke Zhibin; his eyes were red, his expression weary, clearly he had not rested well recently.
Ke Zhibin glanced at the elderly mother and younger son in the ward, his grim face softened considerably.
He strode towards the hospital bed and casually asked, "Are you the only one watching over them?"
Ke Yihui’s expression unchanged, "Aunt He also came but she just took a call and went out, fearing she might disturb grandma and my little brother."
Aunt He, his stepmother, was Hen Nianzhen, who was once a famous actress and the uncrowned queen of the entertainment industry.
Speaking of this stepmother, Ke Yihui had no significant emotions on his face, nor did he engage in the vicious family intrigues common in other wealthy families.
Hen Nianzhen was young and beautiful; at the peak of her career, she married the mogul of Yahuang Entertainment, Ke Zhibin.
She was now in her thirties, well preserved, almost as if she was in her twenties.
After marrying into the Ke family, Hen Nianzhen retreated from acting soon after, staying behind the scenes in recent years and remaining diligent in business affairs without meddling in company matters.
Over the years, she had not borne Ke Zhibin any more children, which wasn’t much of a threat to both Ke Yihui and his brother Ke Yiming.
Suppressing various suspicions in his heart, Ke Zhibin nodded at his eldest son, "I’ll go find her, you stay here for a while longer."
Ke Yihui looked worn out, hesitant, watching his father approaching the ward’s doorway, tentatively he spoke, "Dad, I just overheard Aunt He talking about a Heavenly Master on the phone. Since our family has been having continuous mishaps, maybe we should have someone take a look?"
Ke Zhibin turned abruptly, a mysterious fury welled up around him, his gaze sharp and his voice deep, "A Heavenly Master? When did you hear that woman talking about this?"
Knowing his father didn’t believe in supernatural forces, and seeing his calm face, Ke Yihui explained, "Just now, when I went to the nurse’s station for medicine, I overheard Aunt He talking on her phone. The recent happenings in our family are indeed strange; having a Heavenly Master check might at least give us some peace."
"You don’t need to worry about this," Ke Zhibin cut off his son, looking at his significantly thinner elderly mother in bed, and then at his young son lying pale on the bed.
He clenched his teeth, walked closer to his eldest son, his voice low, "Yihui, have someone check what Hen Nianzhen has been up to recently, and whether she has been seeing any..."
His words trailed off, Ke Zhibin’s face turning ashen, seemingly unable to continue.
Ke Yihui, full of confusion, inquired, "Seeing what?"
Ke Zhibin’s countenance cracked, he spoke urgently, "Check if she has been seeing other men behind my back, investigate her to death, make sure you find out everything she does every day, make it crystal clear!"
