209: Chapter 209: Ruanruan is Under the Protection of Third Master 209: Chapter 209: Ruanruan is Under the Protection of Third Master Upon hearing this, Lu Han fell silent.
After a while, perhaps he had thought of sothing, for he suddenly spoke: “I understand, thank you, Second Master.”
After thanking him, he abruptly ended the call.
Huo Yirong looked down, staring at the terminated call.
“This kid!” he cursed in amused anger, putting down his cell phone.
He thought to himself, he hadn’t had a chance to tell him not to co over too early tomorrow, as he wouldn’t find anyone there.
His younger brother hasn’t been feeling well these past few days, out and about during the day while Qin Ruan stays over at night.
They’d probably go to bed late.
Waking up late the next day would be only normal.
Aside from the fact that Lu Han might co early only to find no one, his younger brother learning that Lu Han ca to ask Qin Ruan about the case would surely lead to trouble.
His younger brother, as flourishing as he may appear, is incredibly protective of all that belongs to him.
He’s known for his strong possessive tendencies.
Now that Qin Ruan is under his younger brother’s wings, she must not be coveted by others.
Huo Yirong lifted his gaze to Huo Qiang who was standing before him, the sinister look in his eyes disappearing, his expression considerably softer than before.
“Reward tonight’s security technicians as you usually do, and then go.”
“Yes, Second Master——”
After Huo Qiang left, Huo Yirong rotated his neck, alleviating the fatigue of the day.
He walked towards his bedroom, massaging the back of his neck as he went.
…
In the Criminal Investigation Departnt.
Recalling that he had previously looked into Qin Ruan’s information, Lu Han knew that his brother was at the sa school as her.
If their older brother doesn’t like to be disturbed, bringing along his younger brother to visit Qin Ruan and establish a rapport with her might likely make it easier to learn more about the case.
Lu Han ntally congratulated himself on his smart idea, but he had overlooked certain things.
His brother, Lu Yichen, was an ambiguous figure in Qin Ruan’s life at Shengshi Academy, not to ntion the current relationship between the older brother and Qin Ruan.
Wasn’t Lu Han taking his brother to see Qin Ruan surely going to arouse the older brother’s sense of danger?
…
After blow-drying her hair in the bathroom, Qin Ruan ca out dressed in her casual ho clothes.
She picked up the cheap pendant placed on the table in the second bedroom and, with her light footsteps, headed out to the open balcony.
The phantom of the driver was still lingering there, his position barely changed from when she had left earlier.
“How is it?
Do you rember?” Qin Ruan asked aloud.
The driver’s appearance had returned to normal, even the wound in his chest completely healed.
Except for his pale, bloodless complexion, he looked almost like a normal person.
The red from his eyes had faded and his expression was dull and lifeless: “That midnight, I picked up a female passenger.
She was wearing a dark blue long dress, was very tall, and incredibly beautiful, her face so attractive it seed unreal.
She was really beautiful, more so than those popular movie starlets.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Ruan looked surprised, her face showing a mix of helplessness and amusent.
The driver repeatedly calling the female passenger beautiful indicated that she was indeed quite a beauty.
However, it was deeply inappropriate to still appreciate a beauty at a ti like this.
Seeing Qin Ruan’s amused expression, the driver felt that continuously praising a woman’s beauty was indeed inappropriate.
He continued: “At the ti, I thought it was unsafe for a woman to be out so late, so I decided to give her a lift ho.
I did not expect the incident that followed; by the ti I realized sothing was wrong, it was already too late.
She sat quietly in the back seat the whole ti, and when I looked back, I was t with a mangled face, rotten with a dark, stinking blood oozing out.
In that mont, I was overco with a chilling sensation before I even had the chance to be scared.”
His heart had literally been taken away by that woman.
Qin Ruan reflected thoughtfully: “So you’re saying, you were killed by a female puppet?”
“I don’t know.”
The driver shook his head in denial.
