Chapter 894: Chapter 874: Retribution
"Help me with cooking." Yue Tingyu decisively dragged Old Master Luo into the house, not getting involved in these matters.
However, Old Master Luo still brought out jackets for Luo Qianqian and Qin Nuan: "Young girls shouldn’t catch a cold." He nodded upon seeing them put on the jackets and then went back inside.
The most aggrieved here was Luo Yanran, as everyone else had some resistance, but he was just an ordinary person, not even favored by his grandparents...
"Why not strip him and throw him out?" Luo Yanran looked disdainfully at He Guo at the door, snorting.
Even with a less than clear mind, He Guo finally grasped a bit of the situation; Luo Qianqian was not only part of this family but also clearly cherished.
Muttering a curse about their family’s dumb luck, he then looked at Luo Qianqian ingratiatingly: "Uncle didn’t do it on purpose, I just saw a mosquito on your shoulder..."
"A mosquito at this time of year? I’d really love to see that." Luo Qianqian sneered.
The northern wind howled, snowflakes drifted slowly, and a mosquito appearing now? She would like to see it indeed.
He Guo finally realized the season wasn’t right, feeling embarrassed on his face. He stood up, no longer daring to act arrogantly, glanced at a few people, and was about to leave.
"Who said you could leave?" Luo Yanran glared: "You hurt Qhianqhian, shouldn’t you quickly cover her medical expenses, lost wages... what else?"
"Emotional distress compensation."
"Right, and also pay for the emotional distress!" Luo Yanran’s face was fierce, but inherently, he looked gentle, and couldn’t pull off a truly menacing look, lacking any deterrent.
"Well, that’s not quite right." Luo Qianqian furrowed her brow: "The card was in the box, auntie wouldn’t have thrown it away, right? Nuannuan, the phone!" It was rather expensive.
Qin Nuan quickly handed over the phone, and Luo Qianqian skillfully dialed: "Hi, Mom, how’s your health?"
The soft and tender voice startled everyone. Was this sweet tone appropriate given her current expression?
"I’m doing great too. Did you and auntie receive my birthday gift?"
"Do you like it? Hehe, well, as long as you have it, if the box is lost, then so be it."
"Uh-huh, okay, take good care of An Hao. I’ll definitely study hard every day, be strong, cheerful, optimistic, and set a good example for An Hao."
Listening to Luo Qianqian speak rapidly, Qin Nuan and the others were speechless.
A good example? Fix the grievance on your face before you talk about that.
After hanging up, Luo Qianqian shrugged: "It’s nothing, just the box is lost, and although the box was quite expensive, what’s inside is even more priceless; auntie carries it with her because it’s more secure than leaving it at home."
Seeing Qin Nuan’s disdainful expression, she blinked: "Why are you looking at me like that? Are you disgusted with me?"
"Study hard? Hmm?" Qin Nuan raised an eyebrow.
"Be strong and cheerful? Hmm?" Luo Yanran shook his head speechlessly.
Tang Tianyi quietly averted his gaze, avoiding their eye contact.
With a pout, Luo Qianqian said nothing.
"Alright, let’s settle this quickly, we’ll delve into this optimistic positivity topic later." Luo Xiying coughed lightly and walked towards the door.
Luo Qianqian struggled to get to the ground. Being in Luo Yanran’s arms wasn’t comfortable, okay?
After all...
Luo Yanran was shivering from the cold.
Handing over her jacket to Luo Yanran: "Brother, wear this for me first, I need to take action!"
Neither Luo Xiying nor the others showed any intention to stop her, and Luo Yanran, dazed for a moment, hugged the jacket, stuffing his arms into the sleeves.
In the next second, another jacket was draped over his back: "I’m going to beat someone up too."
Qin Nuan happily followed in Luo Qianqian’s footsteps.
Luo Yanran was filled with emotion, indeed, girls were gentle.
"What are you here to do?" Luo Qianqian leaned against the wall in front of He Guo, not caring about her image: "You guys should already have your own house, so why are you still bothering Xiao Yu’s family?"
He Guo paused for a moment then slumped to the ground, chuckling bitterly: "What house? That wretched woman sold it and ran off with someone. I broke my leg, Jun didn’t contact us, they’re all ingrates, unwilling to help..."
Upon hearing this, Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes directly.
Ran off? Well, of course. What positive value was there in staying with you? Taking advantage of your mother’s love, endlessly suppressing He Jun’s family because you had a son and He Jun had a daughter, so everything of He Jun’s should be yours? Endlessly benefiting? Do you not know what inheritance order means? Even with you, you’d be second in line!
Ungrateful? The ungreatful ones even bought you a ticket back? Why not just let you walk back?
No gratitude, only blaming others!
Cong Xin’s misguided values spoiled him into a crooked person, whereas the underappreciated son grew up with proper values.
"I could only follow her. When she’s not home, I knock on the door. There’s nothing valuable at home, just a few thousand bucks, and only this box looked precious. All deliveries come from this one address, undoubtedly this must be the wealthy relative." He Guo analyzed logically: "If I had such a relative, my life would certainly be better than theirs, so I followed the address here..."
Seeing He Guo’s bitter look, Luo Qianqian smiled and glanced at Qin Nuan, raising her eyebrows: "I suddenly thought of a word, want to guess? There’s a prize if you guess right?" The tone slightly lifted, clearly in a good mood.
Qin Nuan: "Deserved it?"
Luo Yanran: "Go die?"
Bai Yixian: "Continue."
"Puh..." Everyone burst into laughter, and Luo Qianqian bent over, giving a thumbs up: "You’re amazing, but no."
Luo Xiying: "Karma."
Luo Qianqian nodded: "Pretty much."
After a brief silence, Tang Tianyi said: "Karma, cause and effect."
Luo Qianqian arched her eyebrows: "I’ll give you a prize when we go back."
Looking up at He Guo: "Back then, you relentlessly took from and suppressed Xiao Yu’s family with zero self-awareness. Isn’t all this now just karma? Why should others be nice to you? Treat others the way you want to be treated. Apart from your mother, no one would be endlessly patient with your incessant demands. It’s especially so within family, even more so outside family. Although I want to advise you to work hard, I think you should first head to a certain place."
He Guo looked at Luo Qianqian full of resentment, as she glanced at the dense collection of Gold Element in his pocket, slightly curling her lips: "You could try coming at me." She said, pointing at her neck.
He Guo, with no hesitation, pulled out something and reached for Luo Qianqian, but a flash of Ice Edge pushed the dagger away, and before he could touch Luo Qianqian, another hand grabbed his.
Bai Yixian sneered: "What? You really think you’re under divine protection? Did you really think we would let you have your way with so many of us here? Do you take us for dead?"
