Chapter 232 The Fake Daughter is the Real Boss 4
Zhou Jing frowned, feeling a little unhappy. He didn't like women who were too familiar. After all, he had no shortage of such women around him.
Originally, he didn't want to come to today's party, but because his family has a cooperation with the Luo family, he came to show up and was about to leave. He didn't expect to be targeted by someone.
"Sorry, I have something to do tomorrow and I won't be available."
After saying this, he wanted to leave. Others said that the Luo family's biological daughter was pitiful and had suffered so much outside for so many years, but he didn't think so.
According to him, the adopted daughters of the Luo family have not had an easy life these years. Some are suffering in life, and some are suffering in their hearts. It all depends on what they think.
When Luo Ke saw him leaving in Luo An's direction, the anger in his eyes could hardly be concealed!
It's her again!
Not only does she rob her parents, she also dares to rob the man she likes.
Bitch!
Rocco had good vision. Although there were many talented young people in the hall, none of them could compare to him. She had thought that since these people could attend the banquet, they would at least give her, the protagonist, some face. However, she was slapped in the face at the very beginning.
Even so, Rocco didn't give up.
She jogged a few steps to catch up with Zhou Jing's pace, straightened her back, held the wine glass, tried hard to act like a socialite, and walked towards Luoan with Zhou Jing.
Her pressing look made Zhou Jing's brows, which had just relaxed, frown again. However, considering Luo Cong's face, he did not lose his temper on the spot. He greeted Luo An with a bright smile.
“It looks great!”
The two men's wine glasses clinked together lightly, making a crisp sound. "You're handsome too!"
Luo Ke looked at the smiles on their faces, and was so jealous that he was about to go crazy. He gritted his teeth and took two steps closer to Zhou Jing, a smile on his lips, "Sister, you are so beautiful, but we have just come of age, isn't it inappropriate to dress like this?"
"Inappropriate?"
Luo Ke nodded, "The dean once said that only women who don't respect themselves would wear revealing clothes..."
At this point, Rocco immediately put his hand over his mouth, as if he had said something wrong, "Sister, that's not what I meant."
Although she changed her words immediately, her acting was so bad that it was unbearable to watch.
Luo Ke glanced at Zhou Jing secretly, hoping to see disgust towards Luo An on his face.
Zhou Jing did frown, but not at Luo An, but at her. "Second Miss Luo, what you just said is wrong. It's a new era now, and women are free to dress however they want. You can't judge a woman as unrespectable just because of the clothes she wears. After all, some people dress very conspicuously, but they may not necessarily do anything bad."
These words were very harsh. Luo Ke looked into the other person's eyes and always felt that Zhou Jing was mocking him.
But what she thought was right. Zhou Jing was just mocking her for not doing her job.
"I...I know I said the wrong thing. Brother Xiaojing, please don't be angry."
The one who mocked her was Zhou Jing. If it was anyone else, Luo Ke would have already felt bad for him. However, Zhou Jing really made her heart moved at first sight, and she couldn't bear to blame him.
Not only did he not blame the other person, he even wanted to reach out and pull the other person's sleeve to act coquettishly, but Zhou Jing dodged him quickly. His two hands stayed awkwardly in the air for a long time before he slowly retracted them.
Luo An had been watching the fun from the side. Seeing her watching the show, Zhou Jing felt really helpless and felt that it was not appropriate to go out today.
"Brother Xiaojing, you are still as charming as ever!"
The two men are one year apart in age and have been in the same elementary school. Although Zhou Jing is one grade older, they are still familiar with each other because of their business dealings.
Being teased by her like this, Zhou Jing reached out to pat the other person on the head without thinking, but before Luo An could dodge, he was interrupted by Luo Ke who suddenly appeared between them.
"Sister, Mom is calling you."
Of course Xu Ran didn't call Luo An, but Luo Ke really couldn't stand the familiarity between the two and just wanted to interrupt them quickly.
Luo An did not expose it, and said meaningfully before leaving, "Rotten peach blossom, tsk tsk~"
Zhou Jing was helpless. Since he had already said all the necessary greetings, he put the wine glass on the table beside him and prepared to leave with his long legs.
"Brother Xiaojing, where are you going?"
"Go back to the company."
After taking two steps, he turned back and said, "Call me by my full name from now on, or my sister will be jealous."
Zhou Jing has a younger sister who is thirteen years younger than him. She is spoiled by her family, but she is indeed a big brother. If he tells her that someone calls him brother, she will definitely be angry, so he is not lying.
When he said this, there were groups of people around him holding their cups and chatting about something. Of course, they would not miss this sentence, and the look in their eyes when they looked at Rocco became meaningful.
Luo Ke was no fool, of course he knew that he was being laughed at. He wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Xu Ran who came over. "Xiao Jing, go and do what you need to do. Come to our house when you have time."
"Okay, goodbye, auntie."
Xu Ran greeted the men and women around him, then took Luo Ke to the room on the first floor, "What's going on with you today?"
If she hadn't been worried about Luo Ke just coming home and afraid that she wouldn't be suitable, she would have glanced at her from time to time and almost embarrassed her.
"Mom, I just... I just like Brother Xiaojing, that's all."
Seeing her shy face, Xu Ran had no doubt about the truth of her words.
To be honest, she would be very happy if her daughter could really become the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family. After all, marriage is the best strong alliance in the upper class.
But this kind of thing cannot be rushed, especially for such an outstanding young man like Zhou Jing. After all, there are more than one or two girls who like him, but his daughter went up to him as soon as they met. Isn't this just asking for trouble and getting disliked?
For the first time, Xu Ran felt a little regretful. He regretted that he had rushed to hold today's banquet without explaining anything in detail. He was afraid that those people outside were already laughing at his family.
When Luo Ke just came home, Xu Ran's eyes were full of pity, but as soon as Luo Ke lost face, she started to look at him with a critical look.
Luo Ke was very sensitive to eye contact. She sensed the change in her mother's mood, and the shyness on her face faded. She asked cautiously, "Mom, did I do something wrong?"
Facing the pitiful Luo Ke, Xu Ran still couldn't bear to say anything harsh. "My daughter, I know that you haven't had an easy time these years. You don't know how to deal with many things. I will slowly teach you in the future, but you must remember one thing now. Chasing after someone is not a good deal, and the same applies to liking someone."
Luo Ke understood that her mother was not very satisfied with her performance just now, and was afraid that her mother would give up on her, so she admitted her mistake immediately.
"Mom, I understand. I just can't adapt to it right now. In an orphanage, you have to fight for everything. If you don't fight, you get nothing. So I just..."
"I think my sister and Brother Xiaojing have a good relationship. They..."
Knowing that his daughter was lacking confidence, Xu Ran quickly reassured her, "They... do have a good relationship, but the Zhou family won't let Zhou Jing marry her."
Hearing this, Rocco finally smiled...
