In the more than twenty years she spent in the Luo family, reality had long since worn away all of her former naivety. Now, Luo Ling was calm and reserved, exuding the charm of a mature woman.
Li Yuan curled his lips, a hint of helplessness in his expression: "You won't believe me even if I tell you now. If I had told you that you were Xi Luo when I first arrived, you probably would have thrown me out as if I were crazy."
"..." Luo Ling's eyes darted around.
It must be said that this man did understand her. Just a second before he revealed the truth, she was still very concerned about Xi Luo's existence. If Li Yuan had told her about this as soon as he arrived, she would never have listened to his explanation when the fire in her heart was burning most intensely.
Li Yuan noticed her subtle expressions, his eyes filled with doting affection.
Actually, the reason he's only telling her now is partly for his own selfish reasons.
Give Charleson and his team enough time to investigate and ascertain the truth behind the collaboration between the Lo family and Ferenc from twenty years ago.
On the other hand, he wanted to spend a few more days with her.
The coat was draped over Luo Ling again, and Luo Ling jumped and immediately looked at the man.
"You don't dislike my coat anymore, right?"
"..." Luo Ling turned her head and awkwardly said, "I don't completely believe what you said yet."
"It's okay, I will cooperate with your investigation unconditionally."
"..."
"Alright, it's getting late, let's go home soon?"
Luo Ling ignored him.
Li Yuan raised an eyebrow, his tone teasing: "Don't want to leave? So you want to admire the moon with me? Come on."
As he spoke, he reached out to take Luo Ling's hand.
Luo Ling abruptly withdrew her hand, glared at him fiercely, and turned to leave.
Li Yuan, who was behind her, was in a good mood. Watching her hurried departure, he said slowly, "It's getting cold. Remember to wear more clothes next time you go out. It's best to dress like a ball to keep warm."
He paused, then added, "In my heart, you're beautiful no matter what."
Even if he gets as fat as a ball, he'll still be his favorite ball, let alone if he dresses up as a ball.
Luo Ling stumbled. Did this man really know how to coax a girl?
If I really am Xi Luo, how could I have ever fallen for him in the first place?!
Luo Ling never imagined that even though she had no memories of what happened more than twenty years ago, she would still be so easily attracted by Li Yuan's unique charm when she met him again =_=.
…………
After leaving the garden, Luo Ling went straight back to her residence.
She kept recalling what Li Yuan had said, and it gave her a headache.
Grean carefully observed Luo Ling's expression and cautiously asked, "Madam, are you feeling unwell?"
Luo Ling closed her eyes, rubbed her temples, and shook her head.
"I've heard that aromatherapy has a calming effect, so why don't I put some aromatherapy in your room?"
"No need," Luo Ling refused calmly. "Get out."
Grean nodded: "Yes, madam."
Grean left, leaving Luo Ling alone in the room.
Luo Ling had a headache, so she took out some medicine from the drawer, poured out a pill, and swallowed it. After a while, the headache subsided.
After taking her medicine, Luo Ling lay on the bed and closed her eyes to rest.
…………
Originally, Luo Ling just wanted to close her eyes and rest, but she fell asleep in no time.
She had that dream again, the same dream she'd had countless times over the past twenty years.
The man in my dream was still wearing a white shirt and black suit pants; his broad shoulders and narrow hips made him look very well-proportioned.
Even though she could never clearly see his face, in Luo Ling's subconscious, he was a gentle person.
