Chapter 161: How Sad Third Young Master Must Have Been at That Time

 Chapter 161: How Sad Third Young Master Must Have Been at That Time

There is a type of sadness that is even more despairing than weeping in agony.

Qin Ruan once saw through her spiritual body that there were no tears in Huo Yunjiao's eyes, and his facial expression seemed indifferent, but every inch and every part of his body released an overwhelming sense of sadness.

At that time, she almost shed tears.

If puppets could cry.

Qin Ruan could not truly empathize with him.

How sad must Huo Yunjiao have been at that time?

Meeting the inquisitive gaze of the man before her, Qin Ruan slowly lowered her eyes.

She self-reflected in her heart.

If Hooked Snake Changyuan and the female puppet were working together tonight, the danger she and her unborn child would face would be unimaginable.

Thinking twice before acting was her way of survival in the Western City.

Perhaps it was her rebirth, coupled with her unique transcendent ability, that made her more self-confident than others.

Huo Yunjiao did not know she was self-reflecting. Seeing her looking obedient with a hint of regret, his heart softened.

How could this girl be so obedient and sensible?

Being sensible made people feel sorry for her.

Third Young Master leaned down and slowly approached Qin Ruan.

The shadow crept in, and before Qin Ruan could look up, she was enveloped in a faint smell of agarwood, and Huo Yunjiao's restrained and gentle kiss.

He once again pulled Qin Ruan into his embrace. "Don't think too much. We still have a distance to go before we get home. Close your eyes and rest for a while."

His hand, with distinct bones and lower body temperature than normal people, gently patted Qin Ruan's back with a soothing meaning.

Qin Ruan lazily leaned against Huo Yunjiao's embrace, sniffing the gradually familiar scent. She slowly closed her eyes, relaxed and casual in posture.

Whether it was an animal or a person, only in front of familiar people would they show such openness and trust.

This is Qin Xiaowu from Xicheng, showing a side of himself that he has never shown to anyone before.

Although there was no deep emotional entanglement between the two, it seemed like they had lived together for many years.

They had a certain understanding between them.

...

Three low-key and luxurious cars sped down the wide road.

A few kilometers away from them, taxis were still running in the middle of the night.

The remote road was sparsely populated.

Under the dim yellow streetlights, the gloomy and ambiguous road looked eerie.

A woman in a dark blue dress stood by the roadside, anxiously waving her hand at the approaching taxi.

Seeing a customer, the taxi slowed down and stopped next to the woman in the blue dress.

"Where are you going, miss?" The driver, who was originally heading home, saw a woman outside so late and instinctively let his guard down.

The woman lowered her head nervously, with an unsteady hand clutching her skirt.

"Driver, I'm going to the food street in Xicheng," she said slowly.

"That's quite far away." The taxi driver hesitated.

He looked at the woman standing in front of the car, who had her head bowed and was dressed like a white-collar worker in an office.

She seemed very nervous, and her hands were fidgeting with her skirt.

The taxi driver sighed and said, "I was about to head home. It's not safe for a woman like you to be out so late. Get in the car, I'll take you there."

It should be noted that Xicheng is quite far from Dongcheng, and the round trip would take a long time.

The woman breathed a sigh of relief at his words and finally looked up.

She was very beautiful, with a face that was so unrealistically perfect that it made people feel like it wasn't real.

This kind of beauty was more dazzling than the actresses and popular young actresses who constantly occupied the big screen.

"Thank you, driver," the woman said, walking to the back and opening the car door to get in.

People are visual creatures, and when such a beautiful woman smiles at you, most people would naturally have a good impression of her.

Yesterday evening, I encountered some unpleasant things, so the update was delayed.

This morning, I went to the hospital for a check-up, so the update is also delayed.

I'm sorry to keep everyone waiting.

I will make up for the missing chapters, and thank you for your support.
