Chapter 945: Chapter 945: Huo Sanye’s Sixth Sense, Signs of Memory Recovery

Facing her brother-in-law’s suspicions, Huo Yunjiao’s handsome and indifferent face broke into a slight smile, exuding the inherent intimidating power that came naturally to him.

His voice was soft yet authoritative as he said, "There will be no ’just in case.’ The He Family won’t touch a single hair on Qin Ruan’s head unless they want to make an enemy of the Huo Family.

In Capital City, anyone who wants to harm Ruanruan must consider whether their family can withstand the retribution from the Huo Family. The Nangong Family is a prime example."

Over the years, the actions of the Nangong Family had always been pushing the boundaries of major families.

However, the final straw that broke the Nangong Family wasn’t their covert operations behind the scenes but their fatal mistake of targeting Qin Ruan.

If the Nangong Family hadn’t touched Huo Yunjiao’s darling, perhaps they could have survived a few more years—an evident fact to all families.

With Huo Yunjiao being so straightforward, Qin Mei still had a worried expression on his face.

Seeing his brother about to speak again, Qin Jingcen grabbed his arm and said, "Enough, this matter doesn’t involve you, come with me!"

Unlike Qin Mei, who was oblivious, he knew how influential Qin Ruan now was in Capital City; otherwise, He Mingjin, from the He Family, wouldn’t have sought her out.

Both he and Qin Mei were ordinary people, going there would be of no help to their sister; the best they could do was not to hinder her.

After the Qin brothers left, the rest area was left with only Huo Yunjiao and Qin Ruan.

Huo Yunjiao remembered Qin Ruan mentioning her intention to watch He Mingjin’s live broadcast and gently lowered his gaze to meet her smiling eyes.

He was momentarily stunned, then a smile slowly spread across his lips, realizing Qin Ruan was pleased with what he had just said.

His eyes were tender, and he cryptically said, "Ruanruan, some things that aren’t ours, when seen, can cause ’eye ailments.’ You should understand to look but not see."

Qin Ruan met his deep gaze, her heart stirring slightly, and she quickly understood what he meant.

She said half-jokingly, "What is Third Master thinking? I’ll be outside guarding. After the Puppet appears, I will capture her. How could I possibly watch the live broadcast?"

Huo Yunjiao’s elegantly thin lips curved into a satisfied arc, playing with Qin Ruan’s fingers, revealing the three fingers she had earlier extended towards He Mingjin.

He leaned in, his voice low and enticing, "Ruanruan mentioned that for a normal person, this number could be quite harmful to the body, right?"

The last word was nasal, indescribably seductive and ambiguous, adding a sexy tone.

Qin Ruan’s heart fluttered, recalling the three days she was confined in a room, and internally cursed that the Third Master was inhumane.

If she didn’t recognize his jealousy at this point, it truly would be a wasted life.

Huo Yunjiao’s eyelids slightly drooped, the corners of his eyes curving into a soothing arc, seeming very benign.

Qin Ruan wasn’t fooled by his appearance and instinctively knew that a wrong answer tonight would mean she wouldn’t have peace.

She braced herself and said, "Third Master, people are different. Clearly, He Mingjin has worn himself out with sexual activities, which logically shouldn’t be the case."

Huo Yunjiao’s brows twitched slightly, his voice mellow as wine, "Ruanruan seems to be quite interested in other people’s affairs."

Clearly, the Third Master was not pleased with such a response.

His dark eyes stared at Qin Ruan, his expression cold and pressing.

Qin Ruan’s brows furrowed slightly, her clear eyes fixed on Huo Yunjiao, confusedly saying, "Third Master, you are acting very strangely tonight."

Usually, when she dealt with Puppets, he never restrained her.

Yet tonight, his control over her seemed unusually troublesome.

Huo Yunjiao’s expression paused slightly, the smile on his lips slowly fading.

After Qin Ruan’s reminder, he too realized that his possessiveness tonight was somewhat irrational.

Since seeing her with Lei Ning, that sense of crisis had surged unexpectedly, making him feel as if he needed to hold on to her, lest she disappear.

Huo Yunjiao’s expression became even colder as confusion flickered through his handsome, aloof face.

Qin Ruan saw his serious expression and felt a sudden pang in her heart.

She took the initiative to grip the man’s hand, her voice lowered to a gentle coaxing, "Why don’t you come with me, Third Master? As long as you don’t get entangled with the female Puppet, there shouldn’t be any problem."

Given Huo Yunjiao’s current physical condition, he shouldn’t have dealt with the Puppet, as it would disrupt the rare stability of the two types of aura in his body now.

But Qin Ruan didn’t want to see the confusion that had just flashed across his face.

Her sweetness pleased Huo Yunjiao, and his exquisitely handsome face broke into a warm smile, his eyes softening, "I’m just teasing you. Ayao and Anqi must be tired; I’ll take them home to rest."

Qin Ruan nodded, "I’ll also go back early."

At this moment, He Mingjin returned and called out to Qin Ruan.

Huo Yunjiao released Qin Ruan and whispered into her ear, "Girl, be good, and don’t look at any unclean things."

This time it was no joke, his voice low and tinged with a hint of warning.

He no longer hid his jealousy, letting Qin Ruan clearly understand his pettiness.

Just then, Qin Ruan felt a formidable oppressive force from the Third Master, an eerie and bloodthirsty aura that made her want to flee.

This familiar aura made her shiver, and her heart panicked.

Panic, suffocation, weakness in her legs, and other sensations overwhelmed her, and she instinctively fled.

"Understood!"

Qin Ruan turned and walked toward He Mingjin, running away in a panic.

She didn’t see the flash of crimson in Huo Yunjiao’s eyes behind her.

His cold gaze pierced through the noisy intertwining of the banquet, fixated on that delicate figure leaving with He Mingjin.

Qin Ruan’s panic-stricken escape was all observed by him.

Just then, some fragmented images flashed through his mind, overwhelming emotions of suppression, sorrow, anger, and hatred enveloping him completely.

He subconsciously wanted to stop Qin Ruan, refusing to let her out of his sight.

There was a feeling deep inside him that what would happen during her departure could disrupt their peaceful life.

Huo Yunjiao stood still, his gaze lingering for a long time.

He was a man of striking appearance and formidable presence, making everyone keep their distance.

Those who viewed him from afar could see this man enveloped in a thin mist.

Though seemingly gentle, refined, and gentlemanly, one could feel an ice-cold, bone-chilling coldness emanating from him, as if walking on thin ice.

When Qin Ruan left the banquet hall, perhaps preoccupied with something on her mind, she didn’t notice a dark shadow following close by.

...

He Mingjin’s villa was in the East City, and they soon reached their destination.

Under the streetlights, she suppressed the unease in her heart, her keen eyes scanning the surroundings.

The dense trees, rockeries, and stones of various shapes brought her a direct sense of eerie coldness.

It felt as if she had stepped into a den of evil spirits, even the coldness of the area seeping into her bones through the car door.

The car stopped in front of an antique villa with tasteful decor, presenting a simple, elegant, and atmospheric Chinese style before her eyes.

He Mingjin, sitting in the passenger seat, turned his head to remind her, "Madam Third Young Master, we have arrived."

Qin Ruan hummed a response and pushed open the car door.

Standing on the ground beneath her feet, she felt a more straightforward touch of the eerie coldness of the place.
