Chapter 124 Knowing How to Sell Yourself
The car was parked at a large farm in the suburbs.
The farm occupies the entire hillside; it's not just grand, it's a paradise on earth.
This place is filled with all kinds of flowers and plants, with a pastoral style. Each courtyard is unique and charming, and each courtyard has a different style.
A winding path leads to a secluded spot, where a Zen room is nestled amidst flowers and trees. The mountain scenery delights the birds, and the reflection in the pool calms the mind.
That's exactly the kind of mood or feeling I'm describing.
Lin Yi and Yu Hua were waiting at the entrance.
After getting out of the car, the maid took Yu Zhan's keys and drove the car away.
"Sister Hua'er, brother-in-law." Luo Shu smiled, as if nothing had happened today.
For a moment, Yu Zhan was dazed. Had she really forgiven him?
Will she reject me if I try to seduce her at night?
He frowned, his expression unreadable.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, the group went inside.
They walked on the stone-paved road, surrounded by various flowers and plants that were neat and orderly.
Luo Shu learned from Yu Hua that this was not the Lin family's territory, but Lin Yi's maternal grandfather's territory.
Lin Yi's maternal grandfather has two daughters but no sons. Every year on the second day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Yi would go to his maternal grandfather's house with his mother. The second day of the Lunar New Year is also the liveliest day at his maternal grandfather's house.
This is the first time Yu Zhan has come.
They passed through dense flower bushes and came to one of the courtyards, which was surrounded by a low bamboo fence and surrounded by swirling roses.
Inside was a tea-making area around a stove, where quite a few people were already chatting.
When Yu Zhan and his group walked in, several people at the table stood up and greeted each other.
Here, Luo Shu noticed a blonde woman. The woman had her blonde hair styled in a bun and wore an elegant light green wool coat. Looking at her, she felt a strange sense of familiarity.
Somewhat like Luo Qiu—
That's right.
She had a few answers in her heart, but she wasn't sure.
Lin Yi and Yu Hua call her: Mom.
"You are Shu'er?" Luo Yan avoided the people around her and walked towards Luo Shu, her smile reaching her eyes.
"..." Luo Shu was stunned, and for a moment forgot how to address him. "Hello."
"Come with me, I'll take you to see someone." With that, Luo Yan took her hand.
Luo Shu was slightly taken aback and turned her gaze to look at Yu Zhan.
What does this mean?
Yu Zhan gestured with his chin towards her, indicating that she should follow him.
She then followed Luo Yan with trepidation.
After Luo Shu left.
"When did you get back?" Yu Zhan asked Lin Yi, who was about to sit down to roast sweet potatoes.
He sat down as well, while Yu Hua leisurely brewed tea for them.
"The night Su Nian had her accident, my grandfather went abroad overnight to bring her back, and it went smoothly." The aunt Lin Yi mentioned is Luo Qiu, Luo Shu's mother.
She's back; Luo Zhen picked her up.
Luo Zhen once thought she was no longer alive, until Lin Yi sent them a photo of Luo Shu and they went there following the location given by Yu Zhan.
When they found Luo Qiu, she thought her family was still blaming her. Over the years, she had occasionally returned to China to secretly visit them, but they had always avoided seeing her.
But she never expected that the Luo family would search for her so desperately that they would go crazy, and her mother passed away in the second year after Luo Qiu left.
They had been inside for more than half an hour.
Yu Zhan kept glancing in the direction she had left earlier that day. Strangely, he already missed her after only half an hour.
He touched his nose, feeling a tickle in his heart.
Luo Shu came out an hour later.
They gathered in the courtyard of a villa and had a meal in the hall on the first floor. There was a large round table several meters in diameter. Everyone took their seats, and the maids began to serve the dishes.
The person she hadn't seen in a long time walked out arm in arm with Luo Qiu.
Yu Zhan specially reserved a seat for her.
Luo Shu and Luo Qiu were talking, and after exchanging a few words with Luo Zhen, they sat down with them.
She sat down next to Luo Zhen, looked up, searching for her man, while his gaze remained fixed on her.
"Come here." Luo Shu's lips parted slightly, but she didn't speak. She pointed to the spot next to her.
Yu Zhan raised his lips, stood up, and walked over, sitting down next to Luo Shu between Luo Zhen and Luo Shu.
He first greeted Luo Zhen and Luo Qiu, "Grandpa, Mom, Happy New Year."
A rare smile of relief appeared on Luo Zhen's usually serious face. "Don't leave so quickly tonight. Have a couple more drinks. I need to thank you properly."
I'm so grateful he married Luo Shu, otherwise this reunion would have been a long way off.
"Respect is no excuse, I shall obey." Yu Zhan smiled.
Luo Qiu smiled brightly and nodded.
Tonight's night is long and fulfilling.
They stayed overnight at the manor, where the Luo family had arranged guest rooms for them well in advance.
Luo Shu finally felt a sense of belonging. Lying in bed, she stared at the ceiling, her excitement keeping her awake.
Yu Zhan hadn't returned yet, so Luo Zhen stayed behind, and a group of men talked all night downstairs.
Everyone got drunk, and the unprecedented joy continued into the early hours of the morning.
When he returned, Luo Shu was already asleep.
A knock sounded on the door. Luo Shu groggily glanced at her phone; it was a little past three.
She hurriedly got up and went to open the door barefoot.
Lin Yi and Yu Zhan were standing outside the door, supporting each other. Luo Shu straightened her clothes and went forward to help the drunken Yu Zhan.
This is the first time I've ever gotten so drunk.
"Little cousin, thank you for your hard work." Lin Yi smiled and carefully released the person.
Luo Shu, arm in arm with Yu Zhan, glanced at Lin Yi and asked, "Can you manage to go back by yourself?"
"It's just a few steps, no problem, goodnight."
"good evening."
After saying goodbye, Luo Shu helped the person into the room, closed the door, and settled them into bed.
He lay sprawled on the soft bed, his 1.9-meter frame forming a small, concave shape.
He tugged at his clothes and haphazardly unbuckled his belt.
“Shu—”
He closed his eyes and mumbled her name in a daze.
Luo Shu put him down and a maid brought him some hangover soup from the back door. She brought it in and saw that he was already naked.
He only kept his boxer shorts.
Lying in bed, with a silk quilt covering his vital parts, his strong body was exposed.
He knows how to market himself.
Luo Shu blushed and placed the hangover soup on the bedside table.
"Do you still know who I am?" she asked as she leaned down beside him, her slender hand tracing his prominent Adam's apple.
His Adam's apple bobbed, his mouth was dry, and he slowly opened his eyes.
"Don't tease me, honey."
His deep, choked voice came from his parched throat, and a large hand had already encircled her waist, seemingly there yet not quite.
Luo Shu chuckled and leaned down to peck the corner of his mouth. "Then I'll serve you tonight, okay?"
"good."
He was as if bewitched, and agreed without even thinking.
"Can you still get up?" Luo Shu asked.
"I don't know." His deep eyes darkened. "You try..."
His voice was broken yet seductive.
Luo Shu withdrew her hand and gently patted his cheek, feeling both embarrassed and annoyed.
"I asked if you could get up and have some hangover soup, what are you thinking!"
Yu Zhan hugged her and kept giggling.
"You dog of a man, you beast in human clothing!" she muttered, her little fists pounding his broad chest.
Yu Zhan held her hand, but instead of letting her hit it, he placed it next to his cheek and let her brush against his cheek.
"I'm sorry about Mu Bu. I should have trusted you. You should trust me too, okay? Don't always be so stubborn on your own. Let me protect you, okay?" He apologized earnestly, like a child seeking forgiveness.
He drank a lot tonight, and his mind was preoccupied with thoughts of her.
Luo Shu pinched his cheek. "Okay."
Have you forgiven me?
"Get up and drink some hangover soup and I'll forgive you."
"Okay." He immediately propped himself up with his hands, leaned against the headboard, and drank the hangover soup in one gulp.
