Chapter 23 Grandparents' House



Today is the birthday party of Lin Xuqiu’s grandfather Luo Dongping.

Lin Xuqiu and Luo Hanshuang went together to celebrate their grandfather's birthday.

Luo Dongping is the director of a hospital. He comes from a wealthy family and is a highly respected figure in the industry.

He and his wife have one son and one daughter, the eldest son Luo Haojie and the youngest daughter Luo Hanshuang.

His eldest son Luo Haojie inherited his mantle, became an excellent surgeon, and is now the director of his own hospital.

Luo Haojie and his wife Xu Jing also have a son and a daughter, Luo Mingzhou and Luo Fuyun.

Luo Mingzhou is a doctor of medicine and a cardiac surgeon, and he is not yet married.

Luo Fuyun married Huang Ziyi, the youngest son of a jewelry tycoon.

Arrived at the Luo family villa.

The driver got out of the car and opened the door for the eldest lady and the wife.

Lin Xuqiu stepped out of the car with her long, white legs in high heels and she came out gracefully.

A man with a well-proportioned figure and a gentle temperament, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, walked towards me.

The man in front of him was Lin Xuqiu's cousin Luo Mingzhou.

Their eyes met in the air. Looking at the man's smiling eyes, Lin Xuqiu quickly shifted her gaze.

A man's clear voice rang out.

"Auntie and Xuqiu, come in quickly, grandpa and grandma are waiting for you."

Afterwards, the three of them came to the main living room of the villa together.

There are quite a few people sitting here, it's very lively and harmonious, with laughter everywhere.

Even Luo Fuyun's husband Huang Ziyi was present, holding a baby in his arms.

The adults were all teasing the little baby, making the baby giggle and the adults laughed along with him.

Lin Xuqiu glanced at her cousin's family and had an indescribable feeling.

My cousin actually cheated on her husband while she was breastfeeding. Her husband is an extremely cuckolded person.

Now she is still a descendant of the Luo family and has no intention of killing her relatives for the sake of justice. Even if her identity is exposed in the future, she has no right to interfere in other people's private affairs.

Lin Xuqiu's arrival attracted everyone's attention.

Because Luo Hanshuang often returned to the Luo family, everyone was used to her appearance.

Lin Xuqiu has not visited her grandparents since she married into the Wen family. This is her first time back.

Mr. Luo did not comment on his granddaughter Lin Xuqiu's behavior.

After all, she is now the eldest lady of the Wen family, and no one can blame her.

Grandma waved to Lin Xuqiu kindly.

"Xiao Qiu, come and sit next to grandma."

Lin Xuqiu smiled brightly and sat next to her grandmother.

Grandma wrapped her hands, looked at her left and right, as if she couldn't see enough, and praised her.

"Xiao Qiu, you are really becoming more and more beautiful. It's rare for our Luo family to have such a beauty."

Hearing this, the daughter-in-law Xu Jing next to her became unhappy and said sourly.

"Mom, isn't your granddaughter Fuyun pretty? Why are you only praising your granddaughter?"

Luo Hanshuang sneered.

"Oh, sister-in-law, you just can't stand the truth."

This sister-in-law and her brother-in-law have always been at odds with each other and would argue with each other whenever they meet.

So grandma tried to smooth things over.

"They are all beautiful. My children and grandchildren are all beautiful."

Xu Jing wanted to continue to fight back.

Finally, the grandfather who had been silent all the time spoke up.

"Alright, our Luo family values ​​accomplishment and talent. What's there to compete for? Can good looks really make a living?"

Grandpa is a typical biased person. He seems to be speaking fairly, but in fact, he is saying that it is useless even if Lin Xuqiu is pretty.

After hearing this, Xu Jing felt much more at ease and looked at Luo Hanshuang opposite her provocatively.

Luo Hanshuang glanced at Xu Jing sideways, not wanting to care about this unpresentable sister-in-law at all.

The topic ended just like that.

Appearance has always been a thorn in Xu Jing's heart, as she herself is not very good-looking.

The Luo family is a family of doctors. They have average looks and are not handsome or beautiful.

The children of the Luo family have handsome features and a refined temperament, which gives people a sense of elegance and nobility.

Luo Hanshuang had a pretty appearance, but unexpectedly, her daughter was of stunning beauty.

The elders always praise Luo Hanshuang's daughter for her beauty, but ignore her daughter Fuyun.

In Xu Jing's view, her daughter has a gentle and plain appearance but soft manners, and is a true lady from a noble family.

Although Luo Hanshuang's daughter was extremely beautiful, she was arrogant and willful and could not be compared with her daughter at all.

Although her daughter Fuyun was able to marry into the Huang family because of her sister-in-law Luo Hanshuang, this could not eliminate her prejudice against her sister-in-law.

The two of them have been holding a grudge for a long time, and it can't be resolved with just a few words.

The birthday party begins.

The whole family sang birthday songs for Mr. Luo, and the scene was warm and harmonious.

Mr. Luo was particularly happy to receive the gifts from his children and grandchildren, and he gave them all affirmation.

Compared to his grandparents' house, Lin Xuqiu likes his maternal grandparents' house a little bit more, but only a little bit.

After all, neither her grandparents' family nor her maternal grandparents' family really loved her.

To her, it no longer mattered whether they were sincere or not.

After all, she is not her mother's biological daughter, and all this actually has nothing to do with her.

While Lin Xuqiu was in a daze, he felt the seat next to him sink and a faint smell of ebony incense came from it.

She looked up and saw that the person coming was Luo Mingzhou.

He handed her the cut cake.

"Here, this is your favorite chocolate cake."

She was a little uncomfortable with other people getting close to her, so she moved a little further to the side, keeping some distance between herself and him.

The man lowered his eyes to watch her little movement, pursed his lips, but soon returned to his smile.

"Xuqiu, I saw you were in a daze just now. Is there something on your mind?"
