Chapter 1663: Chapter 1649
Chu Ge slightly lowered his gaze, giving a meaningful smile, "Perhaps it’s because the heavens took pity and let her wake up suddenly during a severe illness."
Luo Qi looked at him curiously, "How does Mr. Chu know this?"
Luo Qi knew that Chu Ge wasn’t from their time-space, and even if he came to their time-space, theoretically, he shouldn’t have known anyone from the Marquis Ye Mansion. Moreover, judging by the relationship they just displayed, it seemed quite familiar.
"The first person I met here was Ye Liang, right on the day she woke up."
With Little Shunzi present, Chu Ge only gave a brief introduction.
Luo Qi nodded, "I see, it’s probably fate."
Chu Ge smiled; maybe it was fate, or maybe it was a doomed encounter.
As Luo Qi mentioned, Feng Luo came out of her room after thinking things through. In fact, she didn’t really figure it out; she simply didn’t want to be troubled by such matters. After all, these were events that hadn’t occurred yet, and worrying about unactualized things felt a lot like unnecessary anxiety.
She freshened up and then changed into a clean set of rags, instantly feeling much refreshed.
Swaggering into the front hall, she happened to see Luo Qi there sipping tea. Feng Luo walked over with a smile and sat across from him, "Old Luo, what are you doing sitting here? Finished with the gang’s affairs?"
Luo Qi heard her tone and knew she was feeling better. He put down his tea, raising his eyes to look at her, "Wasn’t it that our little ancestor was inexplicably unhappy? I stayed here out of concern that our little ancestor might be in danger, as for the gang’s business, your Uncle Nine took care of that."
Feng Luo pouted, then chuckled at Luo Qi, "Old Luo, can you not ask about this afternoon’s incident?"
If Luo Qi questioned her, she truly wouldn’t know what to say.
"Ask what?" Luo Qi looked puzzled.
Feng Luo was taken aback. Didn’t he want to know why she was suddenly upset today?
However, judging by Luo Qi’s indifferent expression, it’s as if why she was upset didn’t really concern him.
Feng Luo’s heart sank, a wave of sadness swept over her. Although she didn’t want Luo Qi to press her for answers, seeing Luo Qi obviously aware of her unhappiness yet uninterested in the cause made her feel a bit depressed and disappointed.
Luo Qi used to care about her a lot, getting anxious over the slightest thing. Was it because she grew up and lost his affection?
Feng Luo quietly looked at Luo Qi, trying to discern some clue from his face, but his expression was calm and unperturbed, revealing nothing.
Sitting there, swinging her legs lightly, she was beyond frustrated.
Seeing Feng Luo pouting, Luo Qi understood why she was unhappy. He smiled and explained, "Actually, we already know why you were upset this afternoon."
Feng Luo was stunned, "You all know?"
"It was Mr. Chu who told us."
Luo Qi explained.
Feng Luo’s lips twitched, this Chu Ge, really couldn’t keep his mouth shut.
Luo Qi cast a deep look at Feng Luo, sighed, and said, "You really needn’t get upset over such a matter."
Feng Luo licked her lips, sitting silently. Suddenly, something dawned on her, and she looked at Luo Qi, shocked, "Old Luo, you just said Mr. Chu told you everything?"
Luo Qi nodded.
"Did he tell you everything?"
Feng Luo asked again, wondering if Chu Ge even revealed that she was not from this time-space to Luo Qi.
She suddenly became nervous.
"I know what you’re thinking. You and he are different, you’ve been here since you were a child, and over a decade has passed. Although Mr. Chu’s appearance brought about anomalies, you were meant to belong to this time-space, that’s why you could stay with us for so many years."
Seeing Feng Luo’s appearance, Luo Qi knew it was time to tell her everything.
Feng Luo looked baffled. She never told Luo Qi that she wasn’t from this time-space, nor did she ever say where she came from. Though she always appeared extraordinary, she was seen as a genius.
Now Luo Qi’s words were quite clear. He knew she wasn’t from this time-space, yet he pretended not to know all along.
Feng Luo’s cheeks were a bit warm, unsure if due to heat or something else, she looked at Luo Qi troubled, "Old Luo, you wouldn’t disown me as your daughter because I’m not from your time-space, right?"
Luo Qi raised his brows, "How could I! You will always be my good daughter, Luo Qi’s daughter, that’s unchangeable! Didn’t I say before? Even though you’re not from our time-space, you grew up here, and have long integrated with us. Normally, people from outside time-spaces can’t stay here more than three months, unless they are connected to this time-space. Otherwise, when the time comes, they would automatically disappear."
Feng Luo frowned, "Automatically disappear? Where to?"
If it’s so, wouldn’t Chu Ge also automatically disappear from here?
"I don’t know where, but surely not back to his original time-space."
Luo Qi sighed slightly, "I also heard from the Old Gang Leader, if anyone not from this time-space stays over three months, they would vanish from here, wandering in the time-space tunnel until they perish in the chaos of the time-space currents.
"..." Feng Luo was silent.
For a while, neither spoke, although Luo Qi was very curious about one thing, "Daughter, how did you know Mr. Chu isn’t from our time-space?"
Feng Luo cast him a side glance, "I knew it the moment I saw him, he was the one who caused me to come to this time-space years ago."
Luo Qi pondered, it seemed the incident that brought Feng Luo to their time-space years ago wasn’t coincidental.
But the truth within, there’s no chance to verify now.
"Oh right, just heard Mr. Chu also brought a friend? Who’s that?"
Feng Luo asked curiously, Chu Ge hadn’t been here long, yet he already made friends?
"It’s the eldest lady from the Marquis Ye Mansion, she’s resting in the room, you’ll see her at dinner."
Luo Qi said.
Feng Luo pouted, "What’s there to see about a friend of Chu Ge."
She muttered quietly, Luo Qi didn’t hear, and Feng Luo said no more.
Soon, it was dinner time, during which Ye Liang stayed in her room and never came out, nobody knew whether she was resting or what in the room.
When she came out of the room, Chu Ge happened to come out as well.
"Chu Ge, what a coincidence."
Ye Liang greeted proactively.
Chu Ge’s face showed weariness, clearly just up from bed, he yawned and smiled, "How was your rest?"
