Chapter 445: Profits are paramount, so why bother pretending to be a loving father and a filial daughter?

"So~" Luo Zhenya held her chin with one hand and smiled: "I'm here."

"You haven't changed at all." Meng Xi smiled and pointed at the bottle of freshly squeezed juice next to her.

"I want to drink." Luo Zhenya covered the rim of the cup with her hand, looking worried: "The mental hospital doesn't serve a drop of alcohol. I finally got out. Who would drink this!"

"Be obedient." Meng Xi pushed Luo Zhenya's wrist away: "Don't you want Dian Xi's painting anymore?"

Luo Zhenya then moved her hand away and winked at Dong Wei next to her.

Dong Wei tilted his head and looked at Luo Zhenya, blinking his eyes, as if he didn't understand.

"Ah." Luo Zhenya sighed softly, as if trying to accept Dong Wei's stupidity: "Give me the thing."

Dong Wei finally understood and handed over a wrapped gift.

"Oh, you've grown up now. You even know to give gifts when you come to see your senior brother?" Meng Xi smiled and was about to praise Luo Zhenya when she saw her shaking her head.

"It's not a gift for you. I'm giving it to Dian Xi through you." Luo Zhenya was very interested in this painter: "Brother, you should know her, right?"

"Tell me the truth? I know him." Meng Xi nodded slightly: "What's wrong?"

"Help me deliver this painting to her and tell her I want to be her friend." Luo Zhenya curled her lips. "If she's willing to let me represent her work, I have the ability to increase her price by at least fifteen times!"

Luo Zhenya saw infinite value and the courage and ambition to look directly into the abyss in Dian Xi's paintings.

This world is dull and boring, and everyone is a cunning coward.

Keluo Zhenya could feel that this Dian Xi was different from others.

They are the same kind of people.

"You found a business opportunity right after you came back?" Meng Xizhao smiled. "I can help you pass the painting to her, but... she's a very mysterious person. She may not agree to your request."

"It doesn't matter. I don't want to cooperate with someone who is not amazing." Luo Zhenya showed a determined smile.

"Keep your confidence." Meng Xichao then mentioned another difficult matter: "Your father borrowed money from me, saying that he wanted to compete with Luo Zhenxuan for Qin Zhi's project."

"Pfft." Luo Zhenya couldn't help laughing out loud: "It's something he can do."

"Are you still laughing? He just opened his mouth and asked for tens of millions."

"What? You didn't?"

"Are you really planning on letting me borrow him?" Meng Xichao was a little surprised by Luo Zhenya's reaction, and then he suddenly laughed as if he understood something: "Little lunatic, you're even plotting against your own father?"

"I call him 'Dad', so he's my dad. If I don't call him that, then who is he? I'm not familiar with him." Luo Zhenya looked at Meng Xichao with a smile: "Brother, are you willing to give me tens of millions to help me build momentum?"

"Okay, now that you've spoken, what else can I say?" Meng Xizhao smiled and turned his gaze to Dong Wei: "What's wrong with him?"

"His name is Dong Wei. When we first met, he was towing a car." Luo Zhenya met Meng Xichao's surprised gaze and said calmly, "It was a seven-seater car. He dragged it three meters away, then he was caught and given an injection, and then fell asleep.

I heard from the nurses at the hospital that the amount of force required to knock him out is the same as the amount required to knock a wild boar out.”

"Wow~" Meng Xi raised an eyebrow at Dong Wei, revealing an admiring look: "Infinite strength?"

"Almost." Luo Zhenya nodded: "It took me a long time to tame him."

"It seems you found some nice toys over there too."

"When you're alive, you always have to find some fun." Luo Zhenya reached out and rubbed Dong Wei's head, then looked at Meng Xichao: "Brother, how have you been lately?"

"Me? That's all." Meng Xichao shrugged disapprovingly: "Being a ruthless money-making machine for the Meng family."

"I still remember the moment you saved me, Senior Brother. If it weren't for you..." Luo Zhenya laughed and shook her head, then extended her hand: "I won't say anything else, Senior Brother, leave Luo Zhenxuan to me. I will help you deal with him."

"It's more than just a matter of handling it." Meng Xichao recalled what Meng Zhihuan had said to him and held Luo Zhenya's hand. "It has to be special enough, preferably unforgettable."

Since Luo Zhenxuan is special to Kong Xiyan.

Then he should be given the most special treatment.

"Okay." Luo Zhenya agreed with a smile: "I will definitely do as you wish."

Dong Wei, who was standing aside, tilted his head and looked at Meng Xichao and Luo Zhenya with a silly smile on his face.

After attending the banquet, Luo Zhenya returned to the Luo family. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Luo Qingchen sitting on the sofa waiting for her.

He looked like an old father who was worried about his daughter coming home late.

There was also a beautiful woman yawning next to him, serving tea and water to Luo Qingchen.

Luo Zhenya just glanced at him and walked upstairs.

"Can't you see I'm here?" Luo Qingchen said coldly.

"I saw it, and then what?" Luo Zhenya did not stop, and her tone was casual and perfunctory.

"You!" Luo Qingchen choked.

"Xiao Ya, your father is worried about you too. He's been waiting for you here for a long time." The beautiful woman said, "You should at least say hello to your family when you come back. Isn't that what I taught you?"

"No." Luo Zhenya paused. "What you taught me is... since I'm Xiao San'er's daughter, I should keep a low profile at school, but my grades can't lose to anyone else. Don't embarrass yourself."

The beautiful woman's face became uglier and uglier, but Luo Zhenya showed no intention of stopping.

"My classmates bullied me because I was too pretentious and not low-key at school. My teachers slandered me because I didn't fit in and was misunderstood. I was stalked and harassed because I didn't respect myself enough, which gave them opportunities to take advantage..."

Luo Zhenya leaned on the railing of the stairs, looking thoughtful: "What else... Oh right, since my father is someone else's husband, it's normal that he can't come back to see me. It told me not to fantasize about those things and just accept my fate.

That’s what you taught me, right?”

"Xiao Ya! Why can't you understand your mother?" The beautiful woman's brows were full of hurt.

"Am I not considerate enough for you?" Luo Zhenya tilted her head and looked at the beautiful woman: "It's not you who died, and it's not you who was locked up in the mental hospital. Isn't that enough?"

"Luo Zhenya! You!" Luo Qingchen was about to get angry when he was interrupted by Luo Zhenya.

"Mr. Meng said he can lend you a maximum of 30 million." Luo Zhenya leaned on the stairs with one hand on her chin. "If it's not enough, he can't do anything."

Hearing Luo Zhenya's words, Luo Qingchen swallowed the abusive words that were on the tip of his tongue.

"Are you okay?" Luo Zhenya chuckled, glanced at the funny couple with a look that saw through everything, and went straight upstairs.

How ridiculous! Isn't this the reason we're waiting here?

How can they pretend to be a loving father and a filial daughter when they put profit above everything else?
