 Chapter 36: Hou Yunjiao: What Happened?

Hou Yirong's handsome face was adorned with a faint smile, and his tone was light and airy, "I see that your memory isn't very good, so it's better to make a deeper impression so that you remember it for a long time."

"As you wish, Second Young Master," Hou Zhi replied, not daring to disobey.

The people in the dark were all weapons in the hands of the Hou family. They had no dignity or sense of self.

If their master wanted them to live, they lived.

If their master wanted them to die, they had no choice but to take their own lives, never causing any trouble for their master.

Hou Yirong moved his foot away from the other person's face.

His eyes were cold and merciless.

"Pass on the matter of the Su family to someone else. As for you, go to the punishment hall. If you can come out alive, I'll give you another chance."

"Understood, Young Master," Hou Zhi said, getting up awkwardly, hunching her body, and slowly walking downstairs.

Hou Yirong turned and went into the bedroom.

Coincidentally, he received a transnational video call from his third younger brother, Hou Yunjiao, who was in the country M.

The video call was connected, and Hou Yunjiao's beautiful, almost demonic face, with a modest and elegant appearance, appeared clearly.

His reserved expression carried a hint of paleness and sickness. When he didn't make any expressions, he gave off an aura of someone to be kept at a distance. He was born with a certain sense of distance.

The background behind Hou Yunjiao was a snow-white wall with an abstract painting hanging on it.

Hou Yirong was very familiar with this place. It was his third younger brother's exclusive VIP ward at the Walton Hospital.

"Yunjiao, do you know what time it is in China now?" Hou Yirong showed a helpless expression on his face.

"It's 3:30 in the afternoon in the country M right now."

Hou Yunjiao's unique and languid voice sounded slowly.

"It's the early hours of the morning in China right now, and it's been more than twenty-four hours since yesterday. I haven't closed my eyes at all."

Hou Yirong sat in front of the desk in the bedroom, and gently pressed his temple with his hand.

This action was seen clearly by Hou Yunjiao, including the blood stain on his hand.

Hou Yunjiao frowned, and his calm face showed concern, "Why is there blood on your hand?"

Hou Yirong paused his hand movement.

He lowered his hand and looked down slightly.

There was a bright red color on his hand, which was extremely dazzling.

Disgust flashed in his eyes, and he picked up a tissue from the side and frowned as he wiped it off, saying casually, "It's not my blood, it's someone from the dark department who got into trouble."

Hou Yunjiao glanced at him, his eyes like torches. "What happened?"

If it involved someone from the dark department and there was blood, it was evident that the situation was not light.

Hou Yirong did not conceal anything and informed him of what Su Jingshu had done, as well as the apparent attitude of the Su family.

Upon hearing this, Hou Yunjiao's already cold and expressionless face became even more frigid, and his calm eyes were as if he was walking on thin ice, cold enough to the bone.

Seeing his unpleasant expression, Hou Yirong's attitude became serious: "I will handle this matter well, you don't have to worry, take care of yourself in country M."

He didn't want this matter to affect his third younger brother.

The Su family was not qualified enough to affect the health of the future leader of the Hou family.

Hou Yunjiao didn't say anything, he crossed his hands and pressed them against his lips, not moving.

The video seemed to stutter and freeze, and the image became still.

Hou Yirong stared at the third younger brother who looked picturesque in the video and knew that he was deep in thought.

After a long while, the video finally changed.

Hou Yunjiao leaned against the bed behind him, his posture elegant and noble, and his low and pleasant voice said, "Leave the matter of the Su family to Grandfather. The aristocratic families have not been very well-behaved in recent years, and the Su family is the most prominent among them. They only dare to be so bold and reckless because of their relationship with Grandfather back then."

"I agree with you."

When Hou Yirong learned of Su Jingshu's betrayal, he also thought of Grandfather for the first time.

He said in a low voice, "The actions of the Su family have already gone beyond what the Hou family can tolerate."
