Chapter 669 'Princess' Aunt Liu's status in the Luo family has always been extraordinary.
It wasn't because of her position as a housekeeper, but because she was gentle, insightful, and meticulous in her work, which earned her Luo Qidong's trust and affection.
She arranged everything for the Luo family, from the arrangement of family banquets to Luo Qidong's daily tea and snacks.
At this moment, Aunt Liu sat next to Luo Shuling, her fingertips gently running through Luo Shuling's smooth hair. Her gaze fell on Luo Shuling's beautiful profile, with long eyelashes like two small fans and fair, delicate skin with a healthy blush. She couldn't help but recall the scene from seven or eight years ago.
It was a cold winter day, with the north wind howling. When she went out to run errands, she saw a small figure under the old locust tree outside the house.
She was a little girl with neat short hair, covered in dust, her face red from the cold, and her lips a little purple, but she stood stubbornly in the cold wind, her eyes shining brightly.
Later she learned that this little girl had actually traveled all the way from Caizhou to the capital, and had been guarding the Luo family mansion for a whole day and night.
When she stepped forward to ask, the little girl saw her and immediately rushed over, grabbing her sleeve. Her little hands were icy cold but incredibly strong. Looking up at her red, frostbitten face, she spoke with a firm tone:
"Auntie, I am Luo Qidong's granddaughter, my name is Luo Shuling, and I have something very important to tell my grandfather."
Looking back now, Aunt Liu herself doesn't know what she was thinking at the time.
Looking into the little girl's clear yet stubborn eyes, and seeing her indomitable spirit, I believed her without even asking.
Aunt Liu clearly remembers that when she brought Luo Shuling to the door of the main house that day, Luo Qidong's eyes were full of astonishment when he saw this little girl who suddenly appeared, but then he became calm.
Afterwards, Luo Qidong asked her to wait outside while he took Luo Shuling into the inner room, where they stayed for a full hour.
Afterwards, Luo Shuling walked out of the house alone. Her face was still tense, but she seemed more determined than when she arrived. She didn't say another word, turned around and left the Luo family mansion. Her small figure disappeared into the cold wind.
When Luo Qidong saw her off, a rare smile appeared on his face as he remarked to her:
"The Luo family has a worthy successor."
For many years, Aunt Liu has been very curious about what exactly eight-year-old Luo Shuling said to Luo Qidong during that one hour.
It's astonishing that the usually strict and discerning Mr. Luo would give such high praise to a granddaughter he's never even met.
As her thoughts gradually returned, Aunt Liu withdrew her wandering gaze and looked at Luo Shuling, who had grown into a graceful young woman, with an even more gentle smile on her face.
She smiled and reached out, gently taking Luo Shuling's small hand in hers. Her fingertips lightly squeezed Luo Shuling's soft fingertips, her tone teasing yet full of affection:
"So beautiful, her skin is so tender it looks like you could squeeze water out of it, and she's still a virgin, that's wonderful. Our Luo family is about to produce a 'princess'."
Upon hearing the word 'Princess', Luo Shuling's expression turned imperceptibly colder.
The term 'princess' is easy to understand.
If it were truly according to her family's arrangements, in ancient times she would be a princess.
This is also why Luo Shuling has never given herself to Gu Luo.
Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to get past Aunt Liu.
