Chapter 513: Qin Ruan Makes a Mistake, She Won't Be Sentenced


Huo Yirong raised an eyebrow, her expression proud as she said, "Why should the Hou family, who has raised her for over ten years, be handed over to those psychologically twisted people to be ravaged as they please?


I don't agree with sending Hou Zhi back to the Wu clan. I know Grandfather's intentions. By handing Hou Zhi over to the Wu clan, it serves as a warning to them and also deters the Wu clan.


Indeed, it is the most direct method, but once Hou Zhi returns to the Wu clan, the dangers she will face in the future are unimaginable.


Just look at what her father did. I guarantee that within three months, little Zhi's will completely disappear from the Wu clan."


By "disappear," it simply means death.


Hou Yunjiao shook his head gently, disagreeing, "It's hard to guess Grandfather's thoughts."


He didn't believe that Grandfather really wanted to send Hou Zhi back to the Wu clan to die.


The intentions behind this are something he can't currently fathom, but it's definitely not as simple as it seems on the surface.


Huo Yirong spoke in a relaxed tone, "Regardless, Huo Zhi has nothing to do with the Wu clan anymore."


Hou Yunjiao smirked, "Second brother, everyone says you are ruthless and vengeful, but I think you're the kindest person in the Hou family."


"Don't! Don't praise me like that, I can't handle it!"


Hou Yirong looked terrified, as if she had been frightened.


Hou Yunjiao smiled lightly, genuinely thinking that way.


You see, when he decided to send Hou Zhi back to the Wu clan, he had already treated her as a discarded piece.


Hou Zhi's identity is awkward, and if it truly comes to it, he won't hesitate to send her away.


Qin Ruan is kind-hearted, knowing that Hou Zhi might not come back, her emotions became low.


To cheer her up, he promised to spare Hou Zhi's life.


Hou Zhi going back to the Wu clan is a dead end.


Life and death hang on a whim of the Hou family.


Qin Ruan's different treatment of Hou Zhi, as well as Hou Yirong's change in attitude due to Hou Zhi's actions, changed the original intention of the matter.


It can only be said that Hou Zhi is very lucky. Her life was not meant to end.


Footsteps sounded from upstairs.


Hou Yirong and Hou Yunjiao both looked up.


They saw Hou Chuan running towards them, holding a cellphone in his hand.


"Second Young Master, Third Young Master, old master is calling."


Hou Chuan quickly walked up to them and handed the phone to them.


Hou Yunjiao's deep eyes flickered slightly as he reached out, took the phone, and put it to his ear.


"Grandfather?"


"Ah, Jiao Jiao, how have you been lately? Is your health alright? When are you planning to come back?"


As soon as Grandfather Hou called, he only asked about Hou Yunjiao's well-being.


Hou Yirong, who was eavesdropping on the side, rolled her eyes in disgust.


The old man's favoritism knows no bounds.


As long as it involves the Third Brother, he always prioritizes him.


Hou Yunjiao's eyes held a faint smile, "I'm doing fine. How about you, Grandfather?"


Grandfather was still angry, "I was fine, but there's a useless descendant causing trouble in the family."


Hou Yunjiao glanced at the eavesdropping Hou Yirong, whose expression was tense.


He tentatively asked, "Grandfather, how do you see this matter?"

"I don't know what else to do. There's a troublemaker in the family. Even when they step out of the house, they attract attention. People who don't know would think I've raised a granddaughter. Even if our own family members are disappointing, we still have to protect them, so as not to lose face outside."


Old Master Hou sighed with resignation.


Hou Yunjiao, however, understood from his words the old master's attitude toward his second brother and the incident involving the witch clan.


With a calm and gentle expression, Hou Yunjiao teased, "Grandfather, Second Brother is as beautiful as a flower. It would be better if he doesn't step out in the future, so as not to attract unwanted attention."


Old Master Hou agreed wholeheartedly, saying, "That's right, that's what I mean."


"... " Hou Yirong, who was eavesdropping nearby, was speechless.


His elegant and otherworldly face tensed up, and a flush spread across his face.


He was both angry and embarrassed.


These two were making fun of him.


Is he really as beautiful as a flower?


Hou Yirong looked up, his gaze brushing over the breathtakingly handsome face of his third younger brother. There was a hint of a smile on his lips, and his affectionate eyes possessed a bewitching charm.


The third brother appeared modest and refined, with a noble and dignified temperament, but in reality, he was indifferent and cold-hearted.


However, it was this kind of third young master of the Hou family who had captivated the hearts of many beauties in the capital city.


If the third brother was considered the second most handsome man, no one in the capital city dared to claim the first.


"So, that brat is with you, right?"


The old master spoke with certainty, his voice transmitted through the phone to Hou Yunjiao and Huo Yirong's ears.


"Yes."


Hou Yunjiao responded lightly.


The old master said, "Yirong didn't overstep this time, but he made a fatal mistake by not informing the family in advance. It put us in a difficult position. When he comes back, let him go to the Punishment Hall on his own, and we won't pursue any other issues."


From the tone of his voice, it seemed as if going to the Punishment Hall was a light punishment for Hou Yirong.


Hou Yirong immediately protested.


He took the phone from Hou Yunjiao's hand and cried, "Grandfather, am I still your grandson? If I go to the Punishment Hall, will I come out alive?!"


"You are my grandson, but my favorite grandson is Yunjiao."


The old master spoke in a spoiled tone, like a child.


Hou Yirong's expression turned serious as he sensed the seriousness in the old master's tone. "Grandfather, do I really have to go?"


"You must go!"


Old Master Hou attitude was firm.


"The rules of the Hou family must be followed. Killing without just cause is forbidden. When would it be your turn to do something like this?"


"I..."


"Yirong, I don't want to hear your explanation. I can overlook other matters, but not this one."


After Old Master Hou finished speaking, he hung up the call directly.


The beeping sound echoed in Hou Yirong's ears, and he was dumbfounded.


He blinked his eyes and looked helplessly at Hou Yunjiao standing beside him.


The latter shrugged, a teasing expression on his face.


"Second Brother, I'm looking forward to your visit to my Punishment Hall after returning to the country."


Hou Yunjiao was the lord of the secret division, and Hou Yirong had the authority to dispatch it, but the true master was only the third young master.


The Punishment Hall was directly under the control of the third young master, and everyone in the Punishment Hall belonged to him. Hou Chuan was the manager of the Punishment Hall.


Whenever anyone entered the Punishment Hall, Hou Yunjiao and Hou Chuan would be the first to receive the news, even if it was the old master who threw someone in, they would be informed.


Any member of the Hou family who made a mistake would receive punishment at the Punishment Hall.


Even if someone entered and didn't die, they would come out with their skin peeled off.


This showed how dangerous it was inside.


Hou Yirong handed the phone to Hou Yunjiao and asked with anticipation, "Third Brother, can you make an exception?"


Hou Yunjiao narrowed his eyes and heartlessly refused, "No, anyone who enters the Punishment Hall under my jurisdiction will not receive any exceptions."


"What if one day, Sister makes a mistake and is sent to the Punishment Hall?"


This hypothetical scenario caused the third young master to furrow his brow.


He thought for a moment, his brows knitted, and he shook his head at Huo Yirong, "That day will never come."


"You can't guarantee that she won't make a mistake in the Hou family." Hou Yirong argued unreasonably.


He just wanted to know if the third young master would still maintain this attitude when Qin Ruan made a mistake.


"If that day truly comes, I won't let her enter the Punishment Hall."


The third young master's voice was deep and resonant.
