A week before the Lunar New Year, Luo Xiao and Yin Shuyi returned to Kyoto.
The moment they stepped off the plane, the two looked at the familiar scenery before them and couldn't help but sigh.
Returning to a familiar place evokes a completely different feeling.
Luo Xiao looked at Qin Bai: "Qingyan, why didn't she come?"
"Uncle, Aunt, Qingyan has invited a few people who are already waiting for you at the hotel. Please go and see them."
"What important person is she that she has to personally entertain?" Luo Xiao asked anxiously, his voice tinged with worry.
Yin Shuyi asked, "Could it be someone from the Luo family?"
"Hehe, there are too many people and too much gossip here. You'll find out when we get there."
Luo Xiao and Yin Shuyi exchanged a glance and did not ask any further questions.
They knew a little about the situation in Kyoto, especially the fact that Qin Bai had directly confronted the entire Luo family for his daughter and was now actually gaining the upper hand, which was quite outrageous.
After getting in the car, Qin Bai directly located the suburbs.
More than an hour later, the car stopped in front of a farmhouse.
"Uncle and Aunt, please get out of the car."
Luo Xiao looked around: "This place looks familiar. It seems like someone invited me here for dinner before."
Just then, a rough voice came from behind.
"Brother, have you really forgotten about me?" Luo Hongqing came out from inside.
He Lingyi followed behind him and said softly with a smile, "Hello, elder brother and sister-in-law."
Yin Shuyi looked at her in surprise: "You are... Lingyi?"
"Um."
Luo Xiao slapped his forehead: "I remember now, this seems to be a property owned by the He family."
He did eat here a long time ago, but at the time he was focused on his research and wouldn't remember who invited him.
Moreover, Luo Hongqing was still pretending to be crazy at the time, and the two brothers parted ways after exchanging only a few words.
Luo Qingyan walked up to the two of them and said, "Mom and Dad, let's go inside and talk. It's cold outside."
Yin Shuyi's eyes were fixed on her daughter.
She still looked delicate and frail, but her brows were filled with joy, indicating that she was doing quite well here.
The group sat down at the dining table. Qin Bai checked the time and looked outside.
Luo Xiao asked in confusion, "Is anyone else coming?"
"Yes, but it should be soon, though it might be inconvenient to come."
Just then, footsteps sounded outside.
Luo Yuquan and Luo Ziyao walked in.
"Uncle, Second Uncle, I'm so sorry I'm late. I had to go around in circles before I dared to come here."
Luo Xiao smiled and said, "Come and sit down. Qingyan has been very fortunate to have been taken care of by you all during this time."
"I wouldn't call it taking care of you, but it's more than enough to be your punching bag."
"Hmm? There's a hidden meaning in your words. What's going on? Did Qingyan bully you again?"
Mentioning this, Luo Yuquan, a grown man, almost cried from feeling wronged.
He pulled up a chair and sat down next to Luo Xiao: "Uncle, you have no idea, I..."
"Luo Yuquan, you dare to say that?" The little yandere glared at him, her eyes full of warning.
Luo Xiao scolded, "You caused trouble, and now you won't even let people talk about it?"
Turning to Luo Yuquan, he said, "Nephew, tell me what losses you've suffered, and I'll compensate you. I refuse to believe that I'd let you suffer a loss while I'm here."
"Alright, Uncle, you said it, so I won't stand on ceremony."
"It was a beautiful, sunny afternoon, and I was pruning..."
Luo Yuquan, true to his political acumen, spoke with clarity and a sorrowful tone, recounting how he lost those treasures.
It was even more detailed than what I had told Qin Bai that day.
No one in the room was chatting anymore; they all listened to him tell stories.
Half an hour later, Luo Yuquan pulled a list out of his pocket, looking aggrieved.
"Uncle, regarding the compensation you mentioned earlier, take a look. I've already listed out all the items..."
Seeing this, Qin Bai silently shielded Luo Qingyan behind him.
Seeing Luo Xiao and Yin Shuyi's unfriendly expressions, he broke out in a cold sweat.
I hope my little yandere at home won't get beaten up.
To be honest, Luo Yuquan's words are truly persuasive.
If I weren't biased, I might have actually joined in the condemnation of the yandere.
Luo Xiao glanced at the list, then silently placed it on the table, also placing it under the bowl and chopsticks.
He turned to look at Luo Hongqing: "I heard you joined the military. Are you adjusting well there?"
Luo Hongqing: ? ? ?
Luo Yuquan: ? ? ?
Qin Bai: ? ? ?
Everyone in the room stared at him in disbelief.
no.
How do you manage to switch topics so skillfully?
One second they're talking about compensation, the next they're chatting about everyday things?
Does this make sense?
"It's alright, the people there are nice."
After a long while.
Luo Hongqing finally realized what was happening and answered his question.
Luo Yuquan quickly tugged at Luo Xiao's sleeve: "Wait, Uncle, you haven't said anything yet..."
"Lingyi, I've heard that houttuynia cordata is quite good in Sichuan, but I don't really like the taste of it. Is there any special way to prepare it?"
"Huh?" Luo Lingyi, who was called out, was taken aback: "Uncle, are you just going to make a cold dish? I can teach you another way."
"Okay, okay, you tell me, when we get back I'll make some for my wife to try."
Luo Xiao took out his little notebook very seriously and started writing down one cooking tip for each day.
Luo Yuquan was so anxious, did this person forget to say something?
I've been waiting for half an hour, so you should at least give me some feedback.
