If there were any flaws in the younger generation of the Luo family, Li Xi would simply say that like parents raise like children. To put it bluntly, aside from Luo Yi, the branch of Luo Jingxuan's father, the other two branches of the Luo family, all of whom were of the same lineage, were more or less romantically savvy.
Let's start with Luo Ren's family. As mentioned before, Luo Ren married Xiao Lin out of gratitude for saving his life. But aside from Xiao Lin herself, Luo Ren, the person involved, knows best how much truth there is in this life-saving favor.
After returning home, neither Luo Ren nor Xiao Lin ever told anyone in detail about their supposed life-saving grace. It was as if overnight, everyone in the community knew Xiao Lin was Luo Ren's savior. But no one knew why Luo Ren was in danger, under what circumstances, or how Xiao Lin saved him.
However, children from wealthy families are rarely truly innocent. Although they don't know the truth of the matter, it doesn't stop them from having conspiracy theories.
Putting aside the fact that Luo Ren, with his family background, couldn't possibly travel abroad without bodyguards, it's the bodyguards who would be the first to turn to in times of danger. If he truly saved his life, it would be the bodyguards who would protect him. While bodyguards are paid, if they truly faced a "life-saving" situation, they would have fought tooth and nail. It's no exaggeration to say that Luo Ren deserved a "life-saving favor," and Xiao Lin wouldn't be the one to do it. Furthermore, how capable would Xiao Lin, a girl, have to be to save Luo Ren's life when his bodyguards couldn't even care?
To put it bluntly, it's just a matter of one willing to fight and the other willing to be beaten. Doesn't the one willing to fight know that the life-saving favor is tainted with falsehood? He knows, but he doesn't want to know, so he pretends it's not true. Does the one willing to fight not know the truth, while the one willing to be beaten knows it? Presumably, she does. Xiao Lin is so smart, she even knew how to trick a little boy into buying her things in junior high. How could she not understand Luo Ren's pretense of ignorance?
The onlookers saw it all, but simply didn't care, or perhaps they were simply enjoying the spectacle. Perhaps, while they were laughing and teasing Luo Ren, saying, "You should repay me with your life-saving grace," they were also secretly mocking the Luo family's eldest son for being so blind as to fall for a scheming, poor girl.
In their eyes, this so-called life-saving grace is really ridiculous.
Luo Ren's attitude is simply love-brained! And this "good quality" has been perfectly passed down to his two children.
Luo Jingting was secretly dating a boy, hiding it from his family. He kept it a secret because, firstly, his parents loved him, but coming out to them required immense courage, something Luo Jingting lacked. Secondly, his partner wasn't exclusively gay, like him; he'd been attracted to and dated girls before. He'd even had affairs with other women during the years he'd been with Luo Jingting.
That’s right, it was cheating, and it was the kind of open cheating that Luo Jingting knew about and forgave him for.
Li Xi: "..." She really didn't understand why someone could forgive infidelity. Someone had betrayed you physically and emotionally, yet you still believed they could stay with you forever? Compromises due to unavoidable circumstances were understandable, but in Luo Jingting's case, Li Xi couldn't think of any reason other than love.
However, perhaps because of this, Luo Jingting didn't feel completely secure in their relationship, let alone the courage to come out to his family. Li Xi didn't know whether Luo Ren and Xiao Lin were open-minded, but in a large family like the Luo family, where brothers would rather kill each other than seize power, Luo Ren would definitely prefer his children to be like "normal people," marry, have children, and inherit the family business.
If they knew their son was attracted to someone of the same sex, especially one who frequently cheated on women, they would definitely strike hard, naturally targeting Luo Jingting's partner. Of course, he wouldn't be like the Hua family, who would just have their subordinates sack someone or do something shady, or even resort to car accidents like they did with Luo Yi. But he would definitely try to get someone to leave his son.
For example, waving a light check in front of someone and saying, "Take the money and leave my son." Or putting pressure on the man's family to get him to find someone to marry as soon as possible.
The threats and inducements don't need to be too strong, and that person might just agree directly. After all, Luo Jingting is not his only choice.
With a partner who wasn't so committed to him, how could Luo Jingting dare come out to his family? So he could only keep it secret, hiding his lover in a golden house. And because of his partner's lack of loyalty, Luo Jingting and him would often have arguments, but almost every time, Luo Jingting would give in.
This time, they made a big fuss.
It's almost Chinese New Year, and Luo Jingting's girlfriend's family has been urging him to get married. They usually urge him, but he brushes them off with excuses like being busy with work, dating someone but not yet ready for marriage, or just breaking up...
The child is not around, so the family can't give them instructions, let alone watch them find a partner. They can only let them prevaricate. But it's almost Chinese New Year, and the child has to go home eventually. It's unreasonable for parents not to hurry up when the child is about to arrive.
Not only did they urge him to go back, they also introduced him to other families and even arranged for him to meet someone at a certain place on a certain day. Afraid that his son would obey them and suddenly change his mind and not go back, the family would call him every now and then to tell him about it.
That day, Luo Jingting happened to overhear the two of them arguing over the phone to discuss the details. A fierce argument ensued, culminating in a violent brawl and the subsequent bed scene. The fight continued unabated, with Luo Jingting interjecting questions throughout the fight, his accusations truly heartbreaking and moving.
Li Xi: “…” What the hell is a fight between fairies?
