Chapter 15: The Gentleman's Scumbag vs. The Beast in Humanity vs. the Hateful Man with Green Face and Fangs

Li Rong kindly warned: "It's very dangerous, there's a high chance of death."

"Will you take off the hat for my family if you die?"

Luo Xinxin asked seriously.

“Probably!”

Li Rong's mouth twitched, and he silently sympathized with Luo Weian and his wife for three seconds.

Luo Xinxin's eyes lit up and she asked excitedly, "What do you think of my idea? Isn't it brilliant?"

"Would your grandparents agree?"

Li Rong and Luo Weian were not familiar with each other, but the two of them did not look like they had such a high level of awareness, so they probably would not agree.

"Of course I can, I will convince them!"

Luo Xinxin agreed readily. Luo Weian and Old Lady Luo were only in their fifties or sixties, the right age for making a living, so she must go!

"Then bring the person here!"

Li Rong agreed.

This girl's idea is really smart and quite feasible!

“Give me an hour!”

Luo Xinxin ran away excitedly, her back looking hurried and full of energy.

Li Rong raised the corners of his mouth and went back to discuss it with Qin Jingxiong and his wife.

Luo Xinxin ran back to the room. Luo Weian and Old Lady Luo were both lying on the bed with their eyes closed, but they were not asleep.

"Where have you been? You don't even know how to boil water!"

The first thing Old Mrs. Luo did was complain. She had just gone to boil some water and had gone to great lengths to get some water. She was exhausted.

"Hurry up and get up and change places!"

Luo Xinxin didn't scold her this time. After all, she was about to be sent to be a scapegoat, and she couldn't bring herself to curse her.

"Where are you going? I slept well here."

Old Mrs. Luo didn't want to move.

"Go to the soft sleeper, it's more comfortable than here, and it has flush toilets. I finally got the ticket. The passengers sleeping there are all cadres and the People's Liberation Army. Don't talk to anyone when you go there, or they'll accuse you of something."

Luo Xinxin pulled her up.

When she heard it was a soft sleeper, Mrs. Luo's eyes lit up. She had never slept in a soft sleeper before, and it must be more comfortable than a hard sleeper. Sleeping in a hard sleeper made her waist hurt.

In the 1970s, only high-ranking officials and foreign guests could ride in soft sleeper cars; ordinary people couldn’t.

"Actually, a hard sleeper is fine. There's no need to go for a soft sleeper."

Luo Weian thought his granddaughter had spent a lot of money again and was a little worried that she would not have enough money after going to the northwest.

"I've already bought it. I'll take you there. Three meals will be provided. I've already paid for it."

Luo Xinxin led them to the soft sleeper compartment. The beds of Qin Jingxiong and his wife were already vacant. The couple had their own room, and the conditions were much better than those in the hard sleeper compartment. Old Mrs. Luo was very satisfied.

Luo Weian originally thought that his granddaughter was doing this in vain, but after sleeping in a soft sleeper, he really didn't want to go back to a hard sleeper. The money was well spent.

"Xinxin, which room are you in?"

Luo Weian asked with concern.

"I only got two tickets, and I'm in a hard sleeper!"

Luo Xinxin gave some more instructions before leaving.

Deeply moved, Luo Weian said to Old Lady Luo, "Be nicer to Xinxin in the future."

"How have I been mean to her? She was so mean to me, she's so disrespectful!"

Old Mrs. Luo looked unhappy and unconvinced. She never thought that she was treating her granddaughter badly. She had food to eat and clothes to wear, was not cold or hungry, and was able to go to school. This was already good enough.

"Xinxin is only mean-spirited, but in action she's very filial. She stayed in a hard sleeper and gave us a soft sleeper. Wanqing's family is sweet-talking, but they stabbed us in the back. Think about that!"

Luo Weian used the example of ungrateful grandchildren as an example. He only regretted now that he had not paid much attention to his granddaughter back then, causing her to suffer a lot of grievances.

When she mentioned her ungrateful son and his family, Mrs. Luo's expression darkened, her interest fading, and she replied in a weak voice, "I know."

"After we go to the northwest, we'll still have to rely on Xinxin to take care of us. Don't just promise, you have to take real action!"

Luo Weian knew his wife's temper very well, so he spoke in a more serious tone.

What he said was not an exaggeration at all. If his granddaughter really made up her mind to break off the relationship with him, the old couple would probably not be able to survive in the northwest.

"How long are we going to stay in the Northwest? It can't be forever, right?"

Old Mrs. Luo asked with a sad face.

"Who knows?"

Luo Weian sighed and lay down.

The comfortable soft sleeper made him feel better. His granddaughter was very capable now. Maybe after she went to the northwest, their lives wouldn't be so hard.

After Luo Xinxin returned, she bought a lot of food in the mall, including beef patties, meat buns and cucumbers, all of which were packed in bags outside. Qin Jingxiong and his wife were great scientists with extraordinary IQs, so she had to be careful to prevent the system from being discovered.

Not long after, Li Rong came over with Qin Jingxiong and his wife. He had changed his clothes again, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, a small mustache on his lips, a white shirt and trousers, looking handsome and refined.

When Luo Xinxin saw him like this, a word suddenly flashed in her mind -

A scoundrel!

A beast in human clothing!

It fits the image of this man perfectly.

"puff"

Luo Xinxin found herself laughing.

"What are you laughing at?"

Li Rong intuitively felt that the woman's smile was related to him.

And it's not a good thing.

"Nothing, just thought of something fun."

Luo Xinxin looked at him with a smile. The more she looked, the more they looked alike, and her smile became even happier.

"You're not saying bad things about me in your heart, are you?"

Li Rong asked as he made the bed.

"Absolutely not!"

Luo Xinxin denied it flatly, but the smile on her lips betrayed her.

Li Rong didn't believe a word she said. This woman must have said something bad about him.

He felt a little itchy in his heart and wanted to know what was said.

After all, he felt that he was almost perfect, and even if you nitpicked him, you couldn't find any fault with him.

"Tell me why you're laughing, and I'll say good things about you when I ask for your reward."

Li Rong took out the fragrant bait, he was sure that Luo Xinxin could not escape.

This girl is willing to sacrifice even her grandparents, she must be aiming to make a contribution. Only by making a contribution can the Luo family's hat be removed.

Luo Xinxin was madly moved, so she told the truth: "When I saw you dressed like this, I thought of an idiom."

"What idiom?"

Li Rong couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth, and several idioms emerged in his mind.

Handsome, talented, graceful, elegant, etc.

"A scum of the gentlemen, a beast in human clothing."

Luo Xinxin said it very honestly.

Li Rong's mouth immediately fell, he glanced at her and reminded her coldly: "You said two idioms, and you couldn't tell the difference between one and two. Didn't you graduate from kindergarten?"

"You asked me to tell you, and now you're unhappy after I tell you. You're so petty!"

"You look like this, and I can think of three idioms: green face and fangs, ugly face, and hideous appearance!"

"I said two of you, and you said three of me. I think you're not only petty, but you've also got amniotic fluid in your head!"

Luo Xinxin responded sharply.

Li Rong looked at her calmly. Although he didn't say anything, his meaning was very clear.

Luo Xinxin felt a little guilty when being stared at. She snorted and turned her head to look at the scenery outside the window.

Qin Jingxiong and his wife were amused by what they saw. Compared to the dull soft sleeper, this place was more interesting.

"Xiao Luo, I'm sorry to trouble you!"

The couple sounded very apologetic. Many people had sacrificed their lives to bring them back to China, and now Xiao Luo's grandparents had been implicated. They felt really bad.

"It's no trouble. It's my honor to help you."

What Luo Xinxin said was true. Qin Jingxiong and his wife are the pillars of the country. It is because of great and selfless scientists like them that the backbone of future generations of Chinese people can stand straight.

Not to mention Luo Weian and his wife, she would even risk her life to protect them. Every child who grew up in a flower-growing family would do the same!
