"That way, she's the safest. Otherwise, given how big the incident was back then, she certainly wouldn't be alive today!"

"In that case, I'm even more determined to take Zixi away. I want to make her my good daughter and turn her against you!"

"Sister, you never would have guessed, would you? A little girl who has been your shadow for decades could end up as the knife that stabs you in the back."

"Over the years, your Luo family has been too 'good' to me. If I don't let your thousand-year-old family fall apart, I would be letting you down for your 'great kindness' to me!"

As she muttered to herself, Luo Qingyan gritted her teeth, her eyes sharp as knives. Just then, her youngest daughter, Luo Yuyao, knocked on the door:

"Mom, is what they said true? Are you and Dad really getting a divorce? They even said you are... are..."

Although her daughter knocked on the door, it was practically the same as breaking in. Seeing Luo Yuyao's flushed face and her body trembling slightly with excitement, Luo Qingyan knew exactly what the girl had gone through outside.

She said directly to her daughter:

"Silly girl, don't pay attention to what others say. They're just jealous that you have a good mother. No matter what, I am a top scientist in the East, that's undeniable and cannot be slandered. If anyone dares to say these kinds of nonsense in front of you, just tell them, and I'll shut them up!"

Luo Yuyao's eyes were filled with confusion, but she could only nod blankly. She simply couldn't believe that her mother, who usually seemed so respectable, dignified and beautiful, was the kind of fickle woman.

However, Luo Yuyao finally asked a question that left Luo Qingyan speechless:

"Mom, has something happened to Changqing's family? We have some connections with them, could you please help them?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Qingyan couldn't help but rub her forehead. Her daughter was completely clueless about the situation. How could she explain this to her?

"Don't worry about this, I'll help you handle it. You should focus more on your studies! I've already heard that the college entrance exam will be reinstated soon. As my daughter, Luo Qingyan, you should at least get into university."

The mother and daughter quickly changed the subject, managing to ease the awkwardness from before.

As for Luo Qingfeng, he naturally learned about Luo Qingyan's search for Luo Zixi immediately.

After learning everything, Luo Qingfeng couldn't help but burst into laughter. His niece was indeed amazing, and he felt a surge of joy.

He could easily imagine how frustrated Luo Qingyan must be right now.

He was happy as long as he could make Luo Qingyan suffer.

Just then, his subordinate entered and reported something important:

"Sir, the descendant of the Su family has been found. She is currently undergoing reform through labor in the cowshed of Yangshu Village in Northeast China, along with the descendant of the Meng family..."

Upon hearing this, Luo Qingfeng immediately stood up:

"Found her? Good, very good! Perhaps she can also become the 'key'!"
