Chapter 111: The Third Young Master exudes a lazy aura
Third Young Master Hou the successor of the Hou family.
It was rumored that he appeared gentle and noble, but was actually ruthless and decisive, cold and elegant, capricious, and ungrateful.
Despite this, countless famous ladies in the capital flocked to him, eager to marry him.
Even if they were not attracted by Hou San Ye's handsome appearance, they still wanted to marry him because of his position as the future head of the Hou family.
Qin Ruan held the pregnancy report in one hand and stood at the door with her other hand on her waist, smiling.
But rumors were just rumors.
Qin Ruan could not agree with the statement that Hou Yunjiao was ungrateful and unfeeling.
She knew how deeply he loved and cared for her in her previous life.
He was still the father of her child, and he couldn't just sit back and do nothing.
"Since you're here, why don't you come in?" A warm and pleasant voice interrupted Qin Ruan's thoughts.
Hou Yunjiao had received a report from his subordinates as soon as Qin Ruan entered the Hou mansion.
He estimated the time it would take for her to enter the house and waited for her, but she did not appear, so he came out to check on her.
It turned out that she was standing at the door in a daze, lost in thought.
Qin Ruan wasn't daydreaming; she was just trying to figure out how to bring up the matter of the child.
She looked up and saw Hou Yunjiao, who was wearing a champagne-colored silk pajama and exuding a lazy aura, standing in front of her.
The dim orange street lamp shone on him, casting a soft and warm halo on him, making him less cold and more gentle.
Although his exquisite face was still pale, it was clear that he looked much better than he did on the Sky Bridge.
Ignoring the subtle emotions that surged within her, Qin Ruan obediently replied, "I just arrived and was about to go in."
Hou Yunjiao lowered his gaze and looked at the document in her hand, his eyes flickering.
He smiled slightly and said, "I see. Welcome home."
Taking into account that she was pregnant, Hou Yunjiao spoke in a gentle tone, "Come in, it's windy outside."
Qin Ruan walked towards him and took off the coat she was wearing, handing it to Hou Yunjiao.
"Thank you, Third Master, for the coat," Qin Ruan said with a formal address, causing a hint of helplessness to show on Hou Yunjiao's face.
There were so many people who called him "Third Master," and it made him feel uncomfortable when Qin Ruan called him that.
He took the coat and led Qin Ruan inside the house, saying, "Grandfather, father, older brother and sister-in-law, and younger brother are all here. It's a good time to introduce you to everyone."
"What?" Qin Ruan stopped in her tracks, and her calm expression changed.
She didn't come here to meet his family.
Wasn't Hou Yunjiao's grandfather the famous and respected figure who appeared on the TV station in the capital city every year on special occasions, along with the current president and cabinet members?
Such a dignified and impressive old man always felt distant to Qin Ruan, no matter in this life or the previous one.
Hou Yunjiao turned his head and saw Qin Ruan's panic. He quickly understood the situation and walked over to her, patting her head to comfort her. "They know you're here and want to meet you. Don't worry."
"But, but I'm not ready," Qin Ruan said, nervously rubbing her hands.
She came here today for Hou Yunjiao and didn't want to accompany him to meet his family.
The pregnancy report in her hand was crumpled up from her nervousness, and she couldn't ignore the anxiety in her heart.
If she had known that she would be meeting his family, she wouldn't have come today.
She crawled out of the mud in the West City, and even if she was reborn, certain things engraved on her heart would not change.
The things she encountered in the Qin family could not be compared with those of a century-old noble family like the Hou family.
The Hou family's ancestors had many achievements, and their family had strict and noble traditions. She came straight for their grandson, without any prior preparation, which was causing her distress.
