Young Master Is Being Jealous Again!
Chapter 944: He Mingjin: Even ten lives wouldn’t be enough for her to play with!

Chapter 944: Chapter 944: He Mingjin: Even ten lives wouldn’t be enough for her to play with!

Third Master’s dark eyes were usually gentle, but his gaze towards Qin Ruan conveyed a hint of accusation.

Qin Ruan pinched her fingers, hesitating, "It might be after midnight, or perhaps at dawn."

Huo Yunjiao’s thin lips seemed to smile briefly as he set Huo Anqi aside to play on his own.

Seeing this scene made Qin Ruan a bit anxious.

Third Master’s slender, fair hand held hers, casually fiddling with it, his magnetic voice slowly said, "Ruanruan, I just brought you back from Sea City yesterday, and tonight you’re not planning to come home, isn’t that a bit cruel to both me and the child?"

His deep eyes looked at Qin Ruan, radiating a mature, gentlemanly charm, which inevitably filled Qin Ruan with guilt.

Upon reflection, she felt she hadn’t done anything wrong, yet she inexplicably felt like she had wronged Third Master and the child.

Qin Ruan looked at the handsome face of the man before her, "It’s not like there’s any choice. The Qin Family needs the Emperor Green Jade Stone that He Mingjin has."

"I’m also curious about the kind of Puppet that even I can’t detect. Once the matter is settled, I’ll definitely come home right away."

"Come home right away?" Huo Yunjiao’s thin lips moved, he murmured softly, not quite believing Qin Ruan’s expression.

Qin Ruan immediately raised her hand, her face earnest as she promised, "I won’t linger outside once things are taken care of!"

Seeing her serious expression, Huo Yunjiao couldn’t help but laugh, reaching out to pinch Qin Ruan’s cheek, his face full of indulgence as he said, "Okay, but after sorting out He Mingjin’s situation, you’re not allowed to go out again from the first to the fifteenth."

Qin Ruan’s curly eyelashes fluttered slightly, "Why?"

Huo Yunjiao sighed lightly, "Haven’t you noticed?"

"Noticed what?"

"Wherever you are, supernatural incidents occur; it’s almost a constant."

Qin Ruan recalled the previous Puppet incidents and couldn’t refute.

She too smiled, "It does seem that way."

Huo Yunjiao leaned back on the sofa, a smile playing on his lips, pinching Qin Ruan’s fingers, "So, do you agree? It’s been quite a while since you spent time with Ayao and Anqi."

He added to himself, aside from those three days, it had been a long time since she had spent time with him too.

"Yiya—"

At her side, the well-behaved Huo Anqi chirped, as if agreeing.

Catching her son’s aggrieved gaze, Qin Ruan quickly nodded, "I agree, I agree!"

Huo Yunjiao was satisfied, releasing her hand, "Then go, the child and I will wait for you at home."

Qin Ruan smiled and leaned closer to his handsome face, giving him a peck.

The brief kiss softened the atmosphere around the kissed one.

"Wait for me!"

After kissing him, Qin Ruan ran off, heading towards He Mingjin who was still talking with her elder brother.

Seeing them becoming more animated in their discussion, she quipped, "He Mingjin, with the way you’re going, are you planning to become sworn brothers with my elder brother? Aren’t you going to resolve your special affection for human Puppets?"

After receiving Qin Ruan’s promise, He Mingjin no longer felt panicky, as if he had found his pillar of strength.

Now, hearing her tease him, he was in the mood to jest back to Qin Ruan, "Becoming sworn brothers isn’t out of the question; it just depends on whether Third Master would accept having an extra little brother-in-law."

His gaze mockingly shifted towards Huo Yunjiao, receiving a cold chuckle in response.

Qin Ruan pointed outside the window at the sky, saying to He Mingjin, "It’s getting late outside, darker is better for handling things."

Upon hearing this, He Mingjin’s expression became much more serious, "Madam Third Master is planning to capture that female Puppet?"

Qin Ruan nodded at him and asked, "Do you have a significant other?"

"Why ask that?" He Mingjin touched the tip of his nose uncomfortably.

A faint smile appeared on Qin Ruan’s face, slowly spreading from her lips.

With malintent, she said, "Call them to that villa where you encountered the Puppet, and tonight, I’ll see how Mr. He shows off his prowess, still possessing his charismatic vigor."

He Mingjin’s face changed upon hearing this, thinking she was joking, shook his head with a bitter smile, "Madam Third Young Master, please stop teasing me."

Qin Ruan glanced at him, her gaze like looking at an idiot.

"Without live broadcasting, who knows whether that female Puppet will show up? Hurry up, I need to go home to be with my children after this!"

Realizing she was serious, He Mingjin twitched the corner of his mouth, his expression one of utter despondency.

Still feeling a bit ashamed, he asked unwillingly, "Are you really playing it this big?"

Qin Ruan’s eyes narrowed slightly, her stare icy and indescribable, "What do you think? Or do you want to spend a great harmony with that Puppet, relying on her to pick up girls in the future?"

"I’ll do it, I’ll do it!" He Mingjin raised his hand in surrender, "Even ten lives wouldn’t be enough for her to toy with!"

Although he loved to play, he always played by the rules, nothing too extreme.

He knew some of the antics played in his circle, but he never participated, finding them too filthy.

Those methods didn’t treat people like human beings, reverting humanity back to primal times, merely pursuing mating processes; describing their actions as ’bestial’ was giving them too much credit.

He didn’t know how those people could engage in such flashy play in public.

A mix of discomfort flashed through He Mingjin’s eyes, being watched as he worked was absolutely a unique embarrassment in his life.

This time, to catch the Puppet, his chastity was sacrificed, as he was even throwing away his face.

He Mingjin cherished both face and dignity, grabbing his phone and standing to leave to make a call.

During this time, Huo Yunjiao had already instructed Huo Zhi to take the two children away, preparing to leave the party and go home.

However, upon hearing Qin Ruan say she wanted to watch the scene, a displeasure and depth flashed through his clear, charming eyes.

After He Mingjin left, Qin Jingcen looked towards Qin Ruan with a worried expression, "Ruanruan, will He Mingjin’s matter put you in danger?"

If the danger was significant, the Qin Family didn’t necessarily have to get that piece of Emperor Green Jade Stone from him.

In his eyes, no amount of money was worth more than Qin Ruan’s safety.

Amusement tinged the bottom of Qin Ruan’s eyes, fearlessly saying, "Big brother, rest assured, this is just a piece of cake for me."

To her, dealing with a Puppet Monster was as routine as a daily meal.

She just feared encountering ancient fierce beasts like Changyuan, those old fellows were not easy to deal with.

Qin Mei stood up from the sofa with Xueqiu in his arms, walked up to Qin Ruan, "How about I go with you? It’s just you and that Mr. He, alone together, what if he bullies you and no one’s there to protect you?"

Qin Jingcen subconsciously looked over at Huo Yunjiao sitting on the sofa, seeing his expression calm, he kicked his brother’s leg.

He said sternly, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Qin Mei frowned and retorted, "Where am I talking nonsense? That Mr. He just looks like a playboy."

You know I’m really scared of Puppets, if I weren’t worried about Qin Ruan’s safety, I wouldn’t be following and enduring the oppressive feeling that Puppet Monster brings."

Huo Yunjiao stood up and walked over to Qin Ruan, holding her hand, assuring the Qin brothers, "Don’t worry, I will have people follow Ruanruan, He Mingjin wouldn’t dare touch her."

The anxious look on Qin Mei’s overly handsome face did not improve.

He stared at Third Master Huo, asking persistently, "But what if?"
