Chapter 218: Third Young Master Huo: Don't Play Tricks with Me, Girl
Lu Han and Lu Yichen couldn't help but internally mock Third Young Master Huo and Qin Ruan, who were sitting across from them.
It was quite surprising to see the cold and aloof Third Young Master, known for his aversion to women, display such tenderness and affection towards Qin Ruan. If other women knew about this, they would surely be gnashing their teeth in jealousy.
As the future head of the Huo family, Third Young Master Huo's status and prestige were well-known, and many women who desired to marry him were blocked by his aversion to women.
However, Qin Ruan, who came from a family that was not as prominent as the other noble families in the capital, had broken through Third Young Master Huo's defenses and captured his heart. She was bound to become the enemy of all upper-class ladies in the capital.
Huo Yunjiao was quite satisfied with the Lu brothers' tactfulness. He held Qin Ruan's chin and shifted her gaze away from the Lan brothers.
"Ruan Ruan, you are now carrying a child. Don't joke around with your body," Third Young Master Huo's tone was firm and commanding, and his dominant aura was subtly revealed, hidden beneath his usual gentle exterior.
What Qin Ruan did had made him feel like a normal person again, free from the sense of helplessness and pain. He didn't believe that Qin Ruan had done all this without paying a price.
Qin Ruan understood what he meant but wasn't sure if he knew exactly what she had done.
"I didn't do anything," she whispered.
Third Young Master Huo smiled and gently caressed her chin, his actions ambiguous and teasing. "How could I not know my own body? Don't play tricks with me, girl."
Qin Ruan's breath caught for a moment. She finally understood that Third Young Master Huo knew what she had done last night, but those actions were nothing to her and wouldn't affect her body.
The Lu brothers and second brother are here, and she doesn't know how to explain to Huo Yunjiao.
After thinking for a moment, she leaned in close to him and whispered, "It was just a matter of convenience, and it won't affect my health in any way. You can rest assured."
She was so close to him, and her voice was so pleasant to hear that the hot breath she exhaled tickled the ear of the third young master.
"Are you sure?" Huo Yunjiao patiently searched her face, making it clear that he didn't believe her.
Before Qin Ruan could explain further, Huo Chuan arrived with his servant from the dining room.
Huo Yunjiao released her and had his man sit next to him.
"We'll deal with you later, just eat obediently for now."
What else could Qin Ruan do but sit obediently by his side?
The Huo family's food was exquisite and delicious, but under the scrutiny of several pairs of eyes, Qin Ruan couldn't taste anything.
Finally, after filling her stomach, she met the probing gaze of the man sitting opposite to Lu Yichen.
Qin Ruan wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin and raised her eyebrows. "Is there something you want?"
Lu Han's eyes lit up. This was Qin Ruan taking the initiative to strike up a conversation.
He immediately nodded.
God knows how much he has been holding back.
Qin Ruan hooked her lips and smiled.
Her gaze shifted slightly, resting on the casually seated Lu Yichen.
"Senior Lu."
"Junior."
Lu Yichen nodded lightly.
The two were not particularly familiar, so there wasn't much small talk.
Lu Yichen knew why he had come today.
Seeing Qin Ruan take the initiative to greet him, he straightened his body. "Junior, my older brother has recently encountered some cases, one of which involves a victim who seems to have some connection to you. Can we ask you for more information? Is that convenient?"
"Of course it's convenient."
Qin Ruan was well aware of their purpose in coming today, which was to inquire about the Heart Extraction Killing Case.
