Chapter 259: Qin Ruan Huo's identity is about to be exposed.
Qin Ruan withdrew her gaze from Huo Zhi and others.
She calmly said, "No, it won't happen."
Meeting Ling Xiaoxuan's questioning gaze, she smiled and said, "I made those classmates drink water for their own good. If they are contaminated by the ghost Qi, it will affect their fortune and even their life safety."
"But they don't know. Afterward, they will definitely report it to the board of directors," Ling Xiaoxuan couldn't help but worry about her.
Qin Ruan lightly said, "They are from the Huo family."
"What?! That's explosive news!" Ling Xiaoxuan's dialect changed in an instant.
Qin Ruan smiled and said nothing, lifted her foot and left the library, heading towards the school cafeteria.
After the previous ordeal, she felt a little hungry now.
The morning's loss of appetite disappeared, and she felt like she could eat two bowls of rice.
"Wait, Qin Ruan, explain yourself clearly!" Ling Xiaoxuan pulled her arm.
Perhaps the action was too strong, Qin Ruan was unprepared and her body leaned back, about to fall to the ground.
Huo Zhi, not far away, had already noticed her arrival.
She knew that the madam did not want to expose her identity, so she did not come forward.
Huo Zhi saw the woman beside the madam pulling her and about to fall to the ground.
Her heart was pounding, and the young master was still in the madam's belly. She didn't have time to think, and rushed over at lightning speed.
Huo Zhi's strange and panicked expression attracted the attention of many onlookers.
After all, she had always been an obstacle to them and was the most influential person in the crowd leaving the library.
Qin Ruan's body tilted backwards, with no point of support. She was about to fall to the ground.
She immediately released the books in her arms, protecting her stomach with both hands, and her face turned pale with fear.
Ling Xiaoxuan acted quickly, reaching out to grab Qin Ruan's sleeve.
The loose sleeve slipped off Qin Ruan's arm, and Ling Xiaoxuan only grabbed an empty sleeve while Qin Ruan's body continued to fall.
As Qin Ruan waited anxiously to land, her body softened into the cold and clear embrace of someone.
Although Huo Zhi was fast, he couldn't catch Qin Ruan in time. She had to crouch down and fly over the ground, then open her arms to catch Qin Ruan.
"Madam..." Huo Zhi's voice was low, with a hint of pain.
Startled, Qin Ruan's heart raced and felt like it was about to jump out of her chest when she heard Huo Zhi's unbearable tone in her ear. She quickly stood up.
"Cough, cough..." Qin Ruan just got up when Huo Zhi, who was lying on the ground, immediately got up and coughed up blood.
The punishment court was not a place to be taken lightly. The impact of Qin Ruan's fall on Huo Zhi's already poor condition caused her injuries to worsen.
"Huo Zhi, are you okay?" Qin Ruan bent down and supported her shoulder, looking worried and nervous.
"I'm fine. It's just an old injury. You don't have to worry," Huo Zhi wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and helped Qin Ruan up.
In her opinion, the Madam should not crouch for too long because she was carrying the future young master in her belly.
Qin Ruan grabbed Huo Zhi's hand and they helped each other stand up.
"Huo Zhi, what happened?" Long Xinzhe had been standing at the door of the library, watching as Huo Zhi rushed towards them at cheetah-like speed, even using her own body as a shield to protect Qin Ruan from harm.
This puzzled and aroused his curiosity.
"Mr. Long," Huo Zhi turned around and respectfully greeted him.
Long Xinzhe's gaze fell on Qin Ruan, his eyes full of scrutiny.
Seeing this, Huo Zhi narrowed her eyes and stepped forward to block his line of sight.
"Mr. Long, please be mindful of your gaze."
His gaze had crossed a boundary.
Huo zhi is very clear about the expression in Long Xinzhe's eyes, it's the look of someone who sees an upper-class person raising a pet in the outer circle.
Long Xinzhe slightly widens his eyes, incredulously staring at Huo zhi.
Qin Ruan actually has the ability to make Huo zhi protect her.
This is not simple!
Long Xinzhe purses his lips and makes a sound of disapproval. He tentatively asks, "Second Young Master's?"
"Mr. Long!"
Without the command of her master, Huo zhi won't reveal the identity of the lady, even if it's the small nephew of the master.
Huo zhi's persistent attitude even more arouses Long Xinzhe's curiosity.
Don't be fooled by his handsome appearance and neighborly gentleness, he carries the pride of a noble family in his bones.
AQin Ruan, he really doesn't regard her as anything special.
But Huo zhi's attitude makes him so curious.
It is said that Qin Ruan is the illegitimate daughter of the Qin family, but some people are very clear about the facts.
For example, the children of the four major families and six aristocratic families in the school, whose family relationships are very extensive, can investigate anything with just a few words.
But even if Qin Ruan is the legitimate daughter of the Qin family.
Her identity and family background are not enough to get on the giant wheel of the Huo family.
The two cannot be compared, and the difference is too big, which is already a compliment to the Qin family.
Long Xinzhe touches his chin, tilts his head to look at Qin Ruan, who is blocked behind Huozhi.
The latter also turns her head and meets his eyes, which are full of interest.
Qin Ruan is still in shock, but still shows a polite smile of detachment towards him.
"Sister, are you going to the restaurant to eat? Why don't we go together?" Long Xinzhe's black eyes slightly move as he takes the initiative to suggest.
Qin Ruan pats Huo zhi's shoulder soothingly, and walks out from behind her.
She politely refuses Long Xinzhe, "Sorry to disturb you, I have already made an appointment with Ling Xiaoxuan."
Ling Xiaoxuan is standing beside Qin Ruan, she has not spoken all along.
As soon as Qin Ruan mentioned her, she immediately stepped forward, took Qin Ruan's shoulder and smiled at Long Xinzhe.
"Long Xinzhe, next time you want to ask our little schoolmate out, don't forget to do it in advance, our little schoolmate belongs to my care."
After speaking, she leaned close to Qin Ruan's ear and whispered, "Are you okay? You scared me."
Ling Xiaoxuan patted her chest in lingering fear.
"I'm fine. Luckily I didn't fall."
Qin Ruan frowned and looked down, absent-mindedly stroking her small belly.
This movement was noticed by the observant Long Xinzhe.
His eyes flashed, as if he understood the purpose of the books in the library.
Sensing his gaze, Qin Ruan naturally moved her hand away from her abdomen.
She knew Long Xinzhe, just like she knew Lu Yichen, both of them coming from the four major families.
The two of them were inseparable at school, always seen together.
She didn't hide her identity in front of Lu Yichen, so naturally she wouldn't hide from Long Xinzhe either.
Some things should just be left to fate, there's no need to be overly cautious.
Qin Ruan looked at Huo Zhi with concern and asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Do you want to go to the infirmary?"
"No need, the school doctor couldn't do anything for my previous injuries," Huo Zhi replied.
Her injuries were too complicated for an ordinary doctor to handle.
She could only return to the Huo household and find the family doctor to administer the medicine.
Qin Ruan saw her dilemma and suggested, "Then go see a doctor for your injuries. I have classes this afternoon and won't leave the school, so nothing will happen."
"I dare not," Huo Zhi replied.
Third Master had ordered her to follow Madam closely.
The Su family had been restless recently, so how could Huo Zhi leave at a time like this?
End of chapter.
