Chapter 259:
In the Luo family's restaurant, Long Xunhai, who had been driven to his fiancée's house by his own father, chatted politely with the Luo family's father. His fiancée, on the other hand, appeared in the restaurant, freshly dressed, just before the dishes were served.
"Grandpa, Brother Hai." Luo Ziwei glanced reservedly at her 'fiancé', then looked at her grandfather. "My granddaughter is late. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
"Haha, there's no need to be so polite among family members." The old man of the Luo family was very satisfied with his newly recognized granddaughter. Although he was a little cold and didn't talk much, he was polite and measured. "Ziwei, come here quickly and sit next to Xiaohai."
Luo Ziwei smiled subtly and walked over to sit next to Long Xunhai.
Mr. Luo looked at the handsome and beautiful couple, and the smile in his eyes became even more intense: "Xiao Hai came over today, and it reminded me of something."
“…”

"You're getting married soon. After the wedding, Xiao Hai will be busy with work, and you can't stay idle at home all the time. Grandpa has found a job for you, doing clerical work in the office of a machinery factory."
Luo Ziwei didn't want to go to the so-called job at all, but if she wanted to get out of the sight of the Luo family, she had to agree: "Thank you, Grandpa."
Long Xunhai frowned: "Isn't Ziwei going to school?" Luo Ziwei was only sixteen years old and had just started high school. Although it was true that they were getting married, it was also a reason to ruin a girl's future.
Luo's personality is cold and his parents are no longer around. His grandfather is afraid that he will remain single forever, so when he hears about the Luo family's granddaughter, he wants Mr. Luo to take the girl.
According to his grandfather, the Luo family's biological mother was not good to this girl, and her in-laws must not be very good either. If they, the Long family, take her back, one way is to help the girl avoid being ignored by her biological mother, and the other is to let them raise a wife they like.
Getting married early does not mean consummating the marriage early. In short, it means protecting your "destined" wife under your wings.
"Ziwei is getting married soon, so it might not be appropriate for her to continue going to school." Luo Ziwei's 'biological mother' said.
☆
Long Xunhai frowned. "There's nothing inappropriate about it. She's still young, and going to school is part of her youth. Even if she marries me, she's free. If she falls in love with someone else before we consummate our marriage, I'll let her go if she's willing."
Luo Ziwei's mother exclaimed: "How can this be possible?"
Long Xunhai: "No problem. I can marry her off as my sister."
Luo Ziwei looked at Long Xunhai, her eyes shimmering with emotion. This man was like this again and again. He had mercilessly killed her once before, and she had already decided to just write off all the past events.
"I won't fall in love with anyone else." Luo Ziwei looked at Long Xunhai, "But if I want to fall in love with you, it depends on your ability."
Long Xunhai raised his eyebrows: "I don't have time for romance."
"Neither have I."
Long Xunhai: ...
☆
"Pfft, haha!" Old Master Luo laughed. "Alright, alright, let's eat quickly. I'm going to your house on February 2nd anyway. You can decide what to do then."
Long Xunhai looked at the little girl with amusement. After Mr. Luo started eating, he glanced at the dishes on the table and picked up a piece of food for her. "No matter what, I will take good care of you."
Luo Ziwei looked at the food in the bowl and wanted to take it back for him. This man always said heartless words while taking care of her meticulously.
But she didn't want it, she just wanted to go back to her own world.
Luo Ziwei's mother watched her future son-in-law pick up food for her newly adopted daughter, and her emotions surged. She couldn't help but say, "Xun Hai, don't spoil her. People will get spoiled."
Long Xunhai: "No, people who are spoiled will be spoiled because they are bad to begin with."
Luo Ziwei's mother froze. What did she mean? Was he trying to point her out? Since the old man knew she had informed his nephew of their movements, surely this young man from the Long family, said to be very powerful in the army, must also know.
☆
Luo Ziwei's brain buzzed. When she heard Long Xunhai's words, her nose suddenly felt sore and tears burst out of her eyes.
He had said the same thing in his previous life.
That was when Lei Xiangqian teased him about doting on her too much. Unexpectedly, after coming back to life and killing her once, this person told her again.
"Ziwei?" Long Xunhai noticed the girl beside him shedding tears into the bowl. In that instant, the frustration and irritation he'd felt after two busy days and being kicked out by his grandfather vanished. Perhaps his grandfather was right. Even if he didn't like her, marrying her and raising her as a younger sister would give him a companion for the future.
When Luo Ziwei heard the call, she wiped her eyes in panic, picked up the bowl, and buried her head in it, unwilling to face everyone around her at the moment.
