Chapter 1815: Chapter 1815: Hiding One’s Achievements and Fame
Luo Qiao also didn’t continue the topic: "Let’s go, it’s time for dinner outside."
After playing a game of ball with the Yuan family’s kids, Luo Chen and Qi Junrui forged quite the bond, becoming very close friends.
Once dinner was over and they helped with the cleanup, the conversation turned to the parents.
Tiong Shulan brought out the knitted sweaters from the room. This time, the whole family got cardigans, perfect for early spring wear. The design was clearly thoughtfully crafted and very modern.
Yanyan saw the sweaters and said, "Grandma, you’ve changed the pattern again this year. You have no idea, last year’s casual style had everyone in the dorm thinking I bought it, and when I said my grandma knitted it, they were so envious."
Luo Qiao looked at the pile of sweaters, deeply moved. Every year the family, all seven of them, received one. They’ve received one every year for more than a decade; such perseverance must come from genuine love.
Tiong Shulan was delighted to see everyone liked them, and she beamed with joy: "As long as you all like them! Though I didn’t know Luo Chen and Jun Rui before, it’s no problem. I’ll make sure you have them to wear in the spring—I’ll knit them as a couple style, so make sure to come by to pick them up."
Luo Chen and Qi Junrui were thrilled to learn they would also receive a sweater, and as a couple set no less, and they thanked her profusely.
Yuan Zhikai then eagerly volunteered: "Grandma, leave this to me. I’ll make sure they’re delivered."
Everyone burst into laughter.
After leaving the Yuan family, Luo Qiao mentioned that Tiong Qiufeng had invited them for dinner that night, and the kids said they’d be there on time, but they’d planned to go bowling first.
So, only Luo Qiao and Lu Yichen went home, enjoying the peace and quiet.
Just before reaching home, they received a call from Shen Jianzhong, who said he’d uncovered quite a bit about Yu Qingli and the Yu family, and if everything was revealed, there would be no saving him.
Luo Qiao coldly replied: "Since he has so much free time, let’s keep him busy."
Shen Jianzhong chuckled: "Alright, will do."
Shen Jianzhong was incredibly efficient with his work.
Once home, the tranquility was rare, and they almost lost track of time while reading in the study, until Rong Daniang came to remind them, and they left together.
When they arrived, Tiong Qiufeng was already there: "Qiaoqiao, over here."
She had previously booked a private room, with the door open so she could see them as they arrived. Luo Qiao smiled and walked over: "Qiufeng, you’re early."
Upon entering, Tiong Qiufeng’s husband was there too. After exchanging greetings, they sat down.
Tiong Qiufeng noticed none of the Lu family kids were around: "Qiaoqiao, where are the kids?"
Luo Qiao checked the time on her phone: "They just called saying they’re on their way. They went out this afternoon, so they aren’t with us."
Tiong Qiufeng said enviously: "I wish my son could have such freedom to play one day."
Luo Qiao patted her hand: "Don’t worry, that day will come."
Tiong Qiufeng suddenly smiled: "Actually, I should be content, but humans are like this; once you reach your initial wish, you just want more, hoping for better."
Luo Qiao nodded in agreement: "Everything will get better."
Tiong Qiufeng rubbed her temples: "Just last time, he said after you gave him a massage, he felt so much better. All his previous discomforts seemed to vanish. You have no idea how reliant and admiring he is of you. He wanted to come along today, but I stopped him, worried he’d catch a cold."
Luo Qiao looked at Qiufeng with a smile, thinking to herself: She had indeed skillfully hidden her abilities and deeds. The child hadn’t felt wrong; without her Special Ability, his post-op recovery might not have been so smooth.
