Luo Ziyan finally realized she had made a mistake and was furious. She cursed inwardly, "Why are you pretending? Can't you just speak up and clarify things if you're not a secretary? You're so hypocritical!"
Lin Jiaojiao saw Chen Xirong apologizing to her. As a noble lady in the Beijing circle, she had naturally received etiquette education and would never let herself be impolite.
But she was not so polite. She just said indifferently: "Madam, you don't have to apologize to me on behalf of others. I won't take it to heart." She had her pride.
Luo Qi still sat still and asked again: "What do you two want from me? If nothing else, please leave." He still had to complete his work, which would bring in huge profits.
Chen Xirong finally responded, "Xiao Qi, it was always mom's fault before..." She had just started to speak when she was interrupted by Luo Qi.
Luo Qi said indifferently: "Ms. Chen, we have no relationship at all. If we have any relationship, we are just strangers. If you want to say this, please leave!"
He had already guessed that Chen Xirong's purpose for coming today was simply to claim him as his son. But how could he agree?
In those two years or so, all his love for his mother had been exhausted, and he was already a person without any relatives or friends.
"Luo Qi, how can you talk to mom like that? Mom was deceived by Dad and the others, so she admitted her mistake about you. It wasn't her fault! Besides, it was she who offered to give that Li Yisheng one million yuan to keep you at home, so that you were not taken to the countryside to suffer. It's because mom couldn't bear to part with you, how can you be so heartless?" Luo Ziyan was very angry at Luo Qi's coldness.
She went abroad more than a month after Luo Chaoxin came to the Luo family, so she knew nothing about what happened afterwards, and no one told her. After all, subconsciously, no one wanted to know that a family had joined forces to bully an adopted son.
Luo Qi couldn't help but laugh when he heard this.
He wasn't angry, as he had temporarily buried the past deep in his heart. He didn't want to live in hatred forever.
He smiled faintly and said, "I am a heartless person, so I would like to ask you two emotionally rich people to leave my cold company, okay?"
When Chen Xirong heard what Luo Ziyan said, she recalled everything that happened in the Luo family villa a few months ago, and her heart was broken.
How had he been so blinded by greed that he'd treated his mistress's child as his own? It was all Luo Xionghua's fault, that treacherous and cunning man, for keeping him in the dark. It was also Li Yiming's fault, that complicit bodyguard, for knowing the truth but remaining silent. They were all a bunch of bastards in cahoots!
Chen Xirong smoothed her hair at the temples, where some gray had already appeared. She hadn't taken care of it in a while, and she no longer had the grace and elegance she once had. She looked a little worn.
"Xiao Qi, let the past be the past! As long as you forgive mom's mistakes, anything is fine. Mom is in poor health and was poisoned before. I don't know how many years she can live. Mom can't live without you!" Chen Xirong had tears in her eyes and looked sad and about to cry.
Luo Qi looked at Chen Xirong's performance coldly.
It has to be said that if Chen Xirong had debuted as an actress when she was young, she would definitely be a movie queen-level figure.
What a good actor!
He was too lazy to pay attention to it anymore.
The reason why he let them in today was simply because he wanted to show that he had already regarded them as strangers.
He pressed the security pager, ready to ask someone to remove the two of them.
The company did not have a front desk, nor did it assign him a secretary, only security personnel.
Seeing that Luo Qi was so heartless and remained indifferent even to her mother's pleas, Luo Ziyan became even more angry. She walked to Luo Qi's desk and slapped it hard.
"Luo Qi, if it weren't for Mom, you wouldn't have come into this world. How could you treat your own mother like this? Mom didn't sign the severance agreement back then. Ultimately, it was you who wanted to break off relations with Mom. It's all your fault, yet you act as if Mom forced you to do it. Your face is truly ugly!"
Luo Ziyan's face was full of anger, as if it was about to burn, and she stared at Luo Qi fiercely.
If her second uncle hadn't said that Luo Qi was an expert in martial arts, she would have slapped him so hard that his parents wouldn't have been able to recognize him.
"Haha!" Faced with Luo Ziyan's brainless nonsense, Luo Qi couldn't help but sneer twice.
He had learned of Luo Xionghua's current situation through certain channels, so he said to Luo Ziyan, "Without Luo Xionghua, you wouldn't be in this world. But your father has ended up like that now. How can you still yell at me instead of fulfilling your filial duty?"
Seeing that Luo Qi not only showed no remorse but also turned against her, Luo Ziyan was furious and said, "He deserves it! Besides, he has already cut off my financial support. Why should I be filial to him?"
"Haha!" Luo Qi sneered again. "Did Eagle Country's law department teach you to argue like this? Or did they pass on their double standards to you?" He pointed at Chen Xirong. "Ask her when she cut off my financial support? You still have the nerve to yell at me! It's totally unreasonable!"
"You..." Luo Ziyan was speechless after being retorted by Luo Qi.
She is indeed deliberately being hypocritical and unreasonable.
In her impression, Luo Qi would always be obedient as long as her sisters were tougher.
But Luo Qi is no longer the person who kowtowed in order to continue living in the Luo family. How could he be restrained by her again?
Then she will naturally suffer backlash.
"I advise you to go back to Eagle Country as soon as possible. You are only suitable for that country. Don't come back, really!" Luo Qi said very sincerely.
"You...what do you care?" Luo Ziyan was so angry that she almost went crazy, but she didn't know how to respond, so she could only throw a tantrum.
Chen Xirong ignored the quarrel between Luo Ziyan and Luo Qi and said, "Xiao Qi, you should return to the Luo family! Your grandfather is now in charge of the Luo family again and is waiting for you to return to announce you as the next heir to the Luo family. As long as your identity is confirmed, others will no longer hire assassins to harm you."
Luo Qi finally heard Chen Xirong mention the matter of hiring a killer, and looked at her with narrowed eyes.
Although he believed that Luo Xionghua was the biggest suspect in the murder for hire, it was not impossible that Chen Xiurong had hired foreigners to kidnap him.
As for the purpose of the crime, does it matter?
Just because he can't figure it out doesn't mean it won't happen, just like he still can't understand why Chen Xirong hated him so much during those two years.
Although Chen Xirong said at the time that she was venting her anger on Luo Chaoxin, he felt that it was just an excuse.
