Chapter 1081: Chapter 638: Concealment
"Luo Ye requests to see me?" Ouyang Qingfeng slightly furrowed his brow, lightly tapping his fingers on the table, "She’s coming at this time, obviously Grandpa’s plea has had an effect, but..."
Ouyang Qingyue quickly interrupted her older brother: "No more ’buts’, I think this is a good opportunity. Why don’t we invite her in for a proper chat, maybe... maybe it might just be the light at the end of the tunnel. What do you think, brother?"
After a brief consideration, Ouyang Qingfeng’s brow relaxed: "Alright then, except for the second family, no one else wants to make enemies with the Wen, Feng, or Ye families, so let’s have a talk..." He waved to Nanny Li, "Please ask Miss Luo to come in."
"Understood." Nanny Li replied and turned to leave, "Wait!" Ouyang Qingyue stood up, "Let me go invite her personally. At the very least, it will show the Ouyang family’s sincerity."
Nanny Li halted and looked hesitantly at Ouyang Qingfeng.
"Okay, let Xiao Si go. Besides, with this girl’s status, she’s worthy of such a reception. Given time..." Ouyang Qingfeng stopped and didn’t continue.
Ouyang Qingyue gave a thumbs up: "Brother, thankfully you are the eldest."
"What nonsense are you talking about..." Ouyang Qingfeng glared at his sister, "You’re already forty, still speaking without depth."
"I’m just speaking the truth..." Ouyang Qingyue grumbled as she walked out.
What she said was indeed true. The second brother is fine, but he’s too easily influenced. As for the third brother and fifth brother, they are all strong but lack flexibility. They also generally have two major flaws—putting on airs and being patriarchal. If this matter were left to any of them, they wouldn’t allow her to do this.
As for her, having studied abroad since the age of ten and returning at twenty-seven, she never had so many formalities. Besides, she always believed that black is black and white is white. Just because someone is family, it doesn’t mean you can’t distinguish right from wrong..., of course, if someone dared to bully a member of the Ouyang family for no reason, she definitely wouldn’t stand by and do nothing...
A beige long skirt paired with a fitted white shirt, shoulder-length hair curled into charming waves, her features bore a five or six point resemblance to Ouyang Zijing..., as she sized up the approaching Ouyang Qingyue from afar, Luo Ye smiled slightly. Judging from the other person’s age, she could also guess her identity. Obviously, the Ouyang family was reaching out to her, so she had indeed come to the right place!
As Luo Ye examined Ouyang Zijing, the other was also observing her.
A tall, sensual figure wrapped in a military uniform, alluring phoenix eyes exuding a clear gaze. Taking a look at the rank on her shoulder, Ouyang Qingyue internally marveled, wondering what on earth Zijing was thinking, going up against such an accomplished girl...
"Miss Luo, I’m Ouyang Qingyue, the fourth sibling. My brother specifically sent me to receive you." Ouyang Qingyue greeted first.
"Miss Ouyang, you’re too kind." Luo Ye smiled sweetly, "Just call me Luo Ye."
"Luo Ye..." Ouyang Qingyue broke into a wide grin: "If you don’t mind, you can call me Aunt Fourth, how about that?"
Luo Ye wasn’t pretentious: "Aunt Fourth, thank you for coming to receive me personally, it’s an honor."
"Haha..." Ouyang Qingyue laughed heartily and took Luo Ye’s hand, "Come, let’s go see my brother first, and then we can have a good chat."
Just as the two reached the side hall entrance, Ouyang Qingfeng came out to greet them: "Miss Luo, welcome."
...
Leaving the Ouyang family, Luo Ye headed straight to L.L China’s branch office. Spotting her from afar, Yanyan hurriedly came out, her eyes full of anxiety: "Luoluo, what should we do, Miss just won’t talk or eat much, if this goes on, her health will break down."
Luo Ye patted her comfortingly and sighed softly: "She needs time to open her heart, don’t rush. I’ll go in and see her first."
After returning home, the elderly couple of the Qiao family wanted to keep Luo Lian by their side, but she insisted on returning to Sha City, refusing to eat or drink otherwise. The elderly had no choice but to comply.
Back in Sha City, Luo Lian threw herself into work, ignoring everyone, including Luo Ye, Xing Nong, Yaoguang, Yanyan, and Qiuqiu.
In the studio, Luo Lian was engrossed in drawing a design, and when Luo Ye pushed the door open and stood by her side for more than ten minutes, she showed no reaction at all.
"Lianlian, take a break."
"Lianlian, it’s Luoluo, don’t you want to talk to me?"
"Lianlian, I know you’re hurting, but some things, if kept inside too long, only hurt yourself. Speaking out can truly make you feel better."
"..."
No matter what Luo Ye said for a long time, Luo Lian did not respond at all.
