Chapter 688: Chapter 403: Serendipitous Encounter (Part 2)
Luo Ye glanced over at the sound, only to see it was Liu Zhengxing’s father, Liu Xing’s grandpa—Mr. Liu. No wonder the voice sounded so familiar.
However, his current appearance was a bit unsightly, with a button torn off his shirt and several scratches on his face.
Looking at the old man he was fighting with, one of the sleeves was torn off, and there were several bloody marks on his face, which looked much worse than Mr. Liu.
This Old Liu, no matter what time it is, never allows himself to be at a disadvantage.
Seeing Luo Ye sizing him up, Mr. Liu was displeased: "Ye’er, haven’t seen you for a few months, and you don’t recognize Grandpa anymore?"
Luo Ye responded with a light smile: "Grandpa Liu, are you doing well now?"
Old Liu replied with a smile so wide it created wrinkles: "Doing great, your Second Uncle and his family are all very filial to me. Ye’er, do you want to visit your Second Uncle and Second Aunt?"
Luo Ye felt like facepalming. Second Uncle Liu and his wife, due to their involvement with Liu Zhengxing, were dismissed from their official posts and lost their jobs, and their ill-gotten gains were also confiscated. They usually show no good expressions towards this old man, but in his mouth, it somehow turned into filial piety. Sigh, Old Liu lives a life wrapped in the illusion of face value.
"I’m really busy, and I also don’t know them. Let’s forget it." Luo Ye didn’t expose him, but gently refused with a smile, and without waiting for Old Liu to say anything, she called on Yaoguang to help Mr. Mo into the car and sent them home.
Watching the car door close, Old Liu’s lips trembled, but he didn’t call out in the end. The other party had given him enough face, and after all, he was clear about the proper conduct.
After the car left, a nosy old man asked: "Old Liu, do you know that child? She’s quite lovely, aren’t you thinking of making her your granddaughter-in-law?"
Mr. Liu gave him a faint glance, turned around, and left without saying a word.
Although Mr. Liu said nothing, the crowd had roughly guessed that the identities of those youngsters just now weren’t low; otherwise, could Old Liu have been so subdued?
This also indirectly indicated that the Mo Family really did cling onto a high branch. It seems having a capable granddaughter really isn’t inferior to having a grandson.
...
After dropping off Yaoguang and Xing Nong, Ye Xuanluo Ye, Luo Lian, and the group went to Seventh Uncle Ye’s villa. As soon as the car entered the yard, Grandpa Luo, Wen Xin, and Luo Feng came out to greet them along with Luo Ping, Xiaoju, Sister Li, and Dongdong.
"Grandpa, Mom, Brother, Sister Pingping..." Luo Ye jumped out of the car excitedly, while greeting, she dragged Luo Lian over to introduce her to the family.
Wen Xin had already heard about Luo Lian, and she warmly hugged her and said softly: "Lianlian, Ye’er and you are so fateful, if you don’t mind, treat this as your own home from now on. I will cherish you just like I cherish Ye’er."
Luo Ye pouted on purpose: "Mom, you definitely love Lianlian more than me. Look, Lianlian has already taken my place."
"You, this girl..." Wen Xin tapped Luo Ye’s head admonishingly: "You’re about to be someone’s wife and still acting so childish, you’d better be careful or Xiao Xuan might not want you."
Ye Xuan immediately said: "Mom, I love her just as she is."
Wen Xin: "..."
Luo Feng approached his sister, pulling her shoulder and complaining: "Ye’er, where have you placed your brother now?"
Luo Ye hugged him and rocked back and forth: "Brother, I’ve missed you so much."
"Cough! Cough..." Ye Xuan coughed a few times.
Luo Feng glanced at him: "Jealous? Let me tell you, this is my sister, the sister I’ve watched grow up since childhood, and you, you’ll always be behind me."
Dongdong also came over: "Sister Ye’er, did you miss me?"
Luo Ye rubbed Dongdong’s head back and forth: "Little Dongdong, what place did you get in the exam this time?"
"First place." Dongdong responded, his cheeks flushed.
Luo Ye pinched his cheeks: "Yo, are you blushing because you’re shy or because you’re excited?"
"Dongdong is already a big boy now, and you’re still treating him like a child; how could he not be embarrassed?" Luo Feng said as he rescued Dongdong from Luo Ye’s hands.
"Let’s go inside; let’s go sit down and talk." The always-smiling Grandpa Luo, who had been observing his granddaughter, led the way to the living room.
Seizing the opportunity, Luo Lian whispered to Luo Ye: "Luoluo, your family is really nice."
"From now on, you’re also a member of my family, okay?"
"No problem. If it weren’t for your brother already promised to Nuonuo, I would have really snatched him away; he’s a good man. What a pity, I met him too late," Luo Lian said with a chuckle.
"Hehe..." Luo Ye just laughed without responding—a topic she was definitely very careful about.
Luo Lian poked her, no longer joking around.
While everyone was chatting happily, the doorbell rang, Xiaoju ran out, and after a while, she came back, looking troubled: "Mr. Su is here again."
"I’ll go." Luo Ye said as she stood up.
Wen Xin reminded: "Ye’er, he has a hard time, don’t make it difficult for him."
"I know." Luo Ye said as she went out, and when she saw Su Can standing outside the door, she felt a little sour in her heart. It had only been a few months since they had seen each other, and he seemed to have aged a few years, a sense of agedness on his face.
"Ye’er..." Seeing that it was Luo Ye coming out, Su Can’s eyes brightened, filled with hope: "When is Qingqing coming back?"
"After she went to Sha City, she took over most of the business of Liangyou there. Our family will go to Sha City to spend the Chinese New Year, so she will just stay there," Luo Ye honestly said.
"She... won’t come back?" Su Can muttered, his complexion darkening.
Seeing him like this, Luo Ye also felt uncomfortable, hesitated, and then asked, "Are Dr. Su’s parents still opposed?"
"Yes, or perhaps they are trying to kill me," Su Can said dismally.
