 Chapter 121: Need to do something to be at ease

As the conversation reached this point, Qin Ruan slightly furrowed her eyebrows and carefully observed Hou Yunjiao's expression.

Seeing that he was calm and composed, with a tranquil look in his eyes, she continued, "In due time, the purple energy, which is already weak, will surely be engulfed by the black mist. At that time, the danger faced by Young Master will be unimaginable."

Qin Ruan's words sounded similar to those of master LingXu  but she added a few more details.

master LingXu said that he had the fortune of a noble and high-ranking official, but fate doesn't always follow one's wishes.

From the moment he was born, he was frail and weak, and all the tests that were done on him, even the most advanced equipment, could not detect the cause of his physical weakness.

master LingXu said that his fortune had changed.

Originally, he had a noble and remarkable destiny, but for some unknown reason, he was getting weaker and weaker each day.

If this continued, death would be waiting for him.

Qin Ruan could calculate that the fate of his body could last for at most another ten years.

Before, Hou Yunjiao had thought about not telling this girl that his remaining life span was less than ten years.

Now, it seems that he was worrying too much.

Hou Yunjiao's heart sank slightly, his lips moved slightly, but he couldn't say a word.

"Third Young Master, the late-night snack is ready."

A middle-aged female servant walked over with an upright and respectful demeanor.

"Go ahead."

Hou Yunjiao waved to Qin Ruan, his expression slightly tired.

Qin Ruan stood up, looked at him with a slight worry before leaving, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Hou Yunjiao smiled at her gently.

Qin Ruan was really hungry, so she didn't think much about it and went to the dining room under the guidance of the servant.

The night snack at the Hou family was really delicious. The chef's craftsmanship was excellent, and Qin Ruan was very satisfied with the meal.

Half an hour later, she left the dining room feeling content.

Hou Yunjiao was still waiting for her in the living room.

Seeing Qin Ruan coming out of the dining room, he got up and walked towards her. They went upstairs together to rest.

The bedroom on the second floor is very spacious, with a European retro-style decoration, and the space for side sleeping is not small either.

Hou Yunjiao led her to the side sleeping area and said, "There are no women's clothes in the house. If you need to wash up, my clothes are in the wardrobe, and they are all new."

"Okay," Qin Ruan nodded.

"Goodnight."

"Third Master, goodnight," Qin Ruan replied.

Hou Yunjiao's deep, dark eyes gazed at her for a moment before he turned and left.

Qin Ruan walked forward and slowly closed the door.

It was 2 a.m.

Qin Ruan lay in bed and looked through the floor-to-ceiling window at the dim starry sky outside.

She was already sleepy but had been waiting for time to pass slowly.

Hou Yunjiao's physical condition was too special.

She had to figure out why his life force was constantly being consumed.

In her past life, the lifespan of the Third Young Master Hou was so short that he died before his son was even born, and Qin Ruan could not face the fact that he would die early.

Qin Ruan couldn't bear it in her heart and had to do something to feel at ease.

She picked up her phone from beside her. It was already 2:15 a.m.

She got out of bed and stepped on the soft, dark-colored carpet with bare feet, and walked step by step towards the door.

The side sleeping room door was opened gently, and the slight sound was very clear in the quiet space.

Qin Ruan held her breath and cautiously opened the door.

She walked out of the room, making no sound.

As soon as she walked out of the room, she saw the man lying on the bed.

He lay flat on the bed, and the soft floor lamp inside the room spread a warm and peaceful glow.

Qin Ruan walked to the bed with light footsteps, making almost no sound.

Standing by the bed, she frowned and stared at the man sleeping in perfect posture.

The eyes of heaven opened, and golden light appeared.

Qin Ruan clearly saw the black mist on Hou Yunjiao's body, which was thicker than when he was awake.

It almost covered the purple aura, with a fierce and evil spirit.
