The next day at dawn, Luo Qingyuan rested at home, while Duan Ye went to work early.

Meanwhile, at the Luo family compound.

Luo Shuyang looked extremely pale, and his two bodyguards stood in front of him, both looking annoyed.

How could I have fallen for Madam's trick?

A moment later, Chen Manhua came over and waved her hand, saying, "You can all go down now."

The two bodyguards glanced at Luo Shuyang, and seeing that she didn't say anything, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "Yes, Madam."

In the large living room, only Luo Shuyang and Chen Manhua remained.

Luo Shuyang looked annoyed, clearly not wanting to talk to Chen Manhua.

Chen Manhua wasn't annoyed. She simply went over, poured him a cup of hot tea, and then sat down on the other side.

Chen Manhua: "I know you're angry that I released Qingyuan, but Shuyang, have you ever thought that it would definitely be bad for Qingyuan to marry him?"

Luo Shuyang looked at her with a slightly darkened gaze: "What do you mean?"

Chen Manhua calmly analyzed: "Which of these prominent families in the capital doesn't have some ambition? Is it really so bad for Qingyuan to marry a powerless and insignificant person?"

Luo Shuyang remained silent with a gloomy expression.

Chen Manhua: "Qingyuan's business acumen is no less than yours. She is fully capable of handling the domestic business market on her own. Even if those big families are dissatisfied, you are still there. You can keep an eye on things from behind, and those people will never be able to cause any trouble."

“The Jiang family is indeed good, but think about it, what kind of personality does Qingyuan have? What kind of personality does Jiang Jingchuan have? Haven’t these two already had a fight? Qingyuan even hit him.”

Luo Shuyang: "That's Jiang Jingchuan's own fault. This kind of thing is something that the younger generation should not have brought up to the parents."

Chen Manhua smiled and said, "Yes, judging from this incident, we can see that Jiang Jingchuan is not very magnanimous. But is he tolerating Qing Yuan for love?"

Which of these aristocratic families in the capital doesn't harbor their own ulterior motives? To pursue love with these people will only lead to utter ruin.

Jiang Jingchuan tolerated Luo Qingyuan simply because he had his eye on the Luo family, a lucrative opportunity.

Marrying into a powerful family inherently carries half the risk, so why not let Luo Qingyuan be with the person she likes? After all, once Luo Qingyuan has children, they will be purely Luo family children, so why worry about these businesses having no one to inherit them?

Luo Shuyang's tightly furrowed brows seemed to relax a little, but his expression remained displeased.

Chen Manhua walked over, sat on Luo Shuyang's lap, and said softly, "Shuyang, it's always your sister who lives the life. Even if you, as her brother, can interfere, how long can you interfere?"

"If your sister absolutely refuses, are you going to force her into the bridal chamber?"

Luo Shuyang sighed and hugged his wife's waist: "Then tell me, what should we do about this marriage? The Luo family has already accepted the betrothal gifts from the Jiang family, so it's acceptable to say that Luo Qingyuan is Jiang Jingchuan's fiancée."

"Moreover, the Luo family and the Jiang family already have business dealings, so it would be difficult to annul the engagement."

Chen Manhua: "If you ask me, you should just let them handle it themselves."

Luo Shuyang genuinely laughed: "Who should we let solve this? Qing Yuan, that love-struck fool? Or Duan Ye, that good-for-nothing?"

Hearing Luo Shuyang's words, Chen Manhua truly had absolutely no good feelings towards Duan Ye, though she might have been somewhat moved by her words.

Luo Shuyang was indeed somewhat moved, because the Jiang family was always an uncertain factor. Although he didn't know the details of Duan Ye's family, he was clear about Duan Ye's background.

If we can control Duan Ye in the future, we can make sure that all the children born to Luo Qingyuan have the surname Luo.

It doesn't seem like it's impossible?

However, a marriage alliance with the Jiang family would also elevate the Luo family's wealth and power, making it a win-win situation.

Therefore, Luo Shuyang wouldn't actually do anything to Jiang Jingchuan.

Chen Manhua sighed; she knew Luo Shuyang had his own reasons.

But why bother? If a person wants everything, they're likely to fall flat on their face.

Chen Manhua: "Didn't you say you couldn't find any information about Duan Ye's grandfather's generation? Is it possible that Duan Ye isn't as useless as you think?"

Luo Shuyang: "It's precisely because I can't find the information that I'm so terrified."

Luo Shuyang's fingers caressed Chen Manhua's waist: "Manhua, because I can't find anything, I have a lot of reason to suspect that there might be some military secrets over there."

“If that’s the case, then Qingyuan should definitely not marry Duan Ye.”

"Businessmen and soldiers are two extremes."

"If my parents knew about this, they would probably be even more furious."

Luo Shuyang's eyes were filled with deep worry: "Manhua, whether in public or private matters, Duan Ye is definitely not a good match for Qingyuan."

"My eyelids have been twitching a lot lately, I always feel like something's going to happen."

"I want to finish dealing with Qingyuan's matter as soon as possible and then take you and our daughter back."

Hearing Luo Shuyang say this, Chen Manhua's heart also became a little uneasy: "Is it that serious?"

Luo Shuyang nodded solemnly: "If it's really as I guessed, then it really will."

Besides, there has always been an unknown force investigating his past, both domestically and internationally, hasn't there?

It's hard not to notice, and it's hard not to be vigilant.

Chen Manhua held Luo Shuyang in her arms, leaned against his chest, and said softly, "I just want the three of us to be well. If things don't work out in China, we'll go abroad."

"Shuyang, I don't want anything to happen to you."

Luo Shuyang smiled and hugged Chen Manhua tightly: "Silly girl, what could possibly happen to me?"

The important thing now is Luo Qingyuan's matter.

But Luo Qingyuan went home, and he didn't know if anyone was watching him. If he made a move rashly, he might be taken away before he could even make a move.

Luo Shuyang was also helpless. He could only hope that his men would find out the exact origin of that group of people as soon as possible, so that he could show his skills. This kind of timid life was really unpleasant.

At this moment, Luo Qingyuan also woke up. She rubbed her head and came out of the living room, where she saw her grandmother watching the news at home.

Luo Qingyuan: "Grandma, you didn't go for a walk today?"

As they were talking, Luo Qingyuan went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and took out a bottle of yogurt to drink.

The old lady said, "You dare to talk? You brat! How could I dare to leave? I'm afraid your brother will come knocking on our door."

Luo Qingyuan chuckled twice, then confidently said, "Don't worry, my brother can't take care of me for now."

Liang Mo's investigation alone will keep him busy for a while.

The old lady looked at Luo Qingyuan: "You wouldn't sell your own brother for your own happiness, would you?"

Luo Qingyuan almost spat out her yogurt: "How is that possible?!"

"Don't worry, my brother is a law-abiding citizen. What could possibly happen to him?"

"Besides, this is within China. My brother isn't that stubborn; he always thinks things through more carefully before acting."

The old lady was relieved, but still advised her: "It's okay to make a fuss, he is still your own brother, you have to know your limits."

Luo Qingyuan nodded: "Don't worry."

"Grandma, we're going to find Ah Ye for dinner later. What would you like to eat?"
