Grandma Luo and Grandpa Luo had already received some rumors, and now that their eldest grandson had called them together, they had a bad feeling.
"Grandpa, Grandma, the Feng family wants to acquire land here," Luo Chen said bluntly.
"Are they here to die?" Old Mrs. Luo couldn't help but stand up excitedly when she mentioned the Feng family.
"Mom, don't get upset. Zeyuan and Achen will handle it." Luo Kaiyue quickly comforted his mother, knowing that the harm the Feng family had done to Achen was something the Luo family hated most.
But this foolish Feng family actually tried to acquire land in City A.
Is it really just about acquiring land?
He felt it wasn't that simple; there must be another reason why the Feng family was here.
"Ah Chen, listen to me carefully. If I find out that you have an ambiguous relationship with that Feng Mingzhu and it's affecting your relationship with Xiao Tuo, I will definitely not let you off!" Grandma Luo suddenly thought of that little vixen from the Feng family.
That little vixen is no ordinary person; only a fool like Ah Chen still thinks she's such an innocent little girl.
The Luo family members clearly didn't like Feng Mingzhu much.
"Ah Chen, Grandma is right, that Feng Mingzhu is not simple." Although Wan Qiqi didn't like Mo Xiaotuo very much, she was much better than that little vixen from the Feng family.
At least Mo Xiaotuo has a clean background, otherwise the old lady wouldn't have introduced him to her grandson.
"Grandma, I know." Luo Chen knew the Luo family's attitude towards the Feng family, and also the Luo family's attitude towards his cousin.
"It's good that you know. It's getting late. Don't keep Xiao Tuo waiting too long. You should go home early! Make sure you bring all the gifts, and buy your wife some more clothes. She only wears the same few outfits over and over again. Are you that poor?" Grandma Luo felt uneasy thinking about Feng Mingzhu.
Ah Chen had done many things that disappointed the Luo family because of that little fox spirit, so we can't let that little fox spirit ruin Xiao Tuo and Ah Chen's happiness.
"Grandma, I understand. I'll take her shopping for clothes tomorrow." Luo Chen obediently complied.
"Also, I heard that Xiao Tuo has a younger brother at the school you sponsor. You need to keep a close eye on him and make sure he's not bullied. Xiao Tuo is part of our family now, so we have to protect him!" Grandma Luo commanded Achen with an air of authority.
"Yes! I'll do whatever Grandma says." Luo Chen nodded.
"Go back. Xiao Tuo still has to go to work. You can stop pretending now. I don't want my granddaughter-in-law to suffer like this." Grandma Luo said sternly, afraid that if she continued to pretend, she would anger Xiao Tuo.
In fact, Luo Chen was also looking for an opportunity to let Xiao Tuo know his identity, so that his identity wouldn't be revealed by his love rival, which would cause trouble.
Grandma Luo didn't want to say anything more, so she waved her hand, signaling Ah Chen to leave first.
Luo Chen left the house, pulled Mo Xiaotuo out of the yard, and got into the car.
Mo Xiaotuo clearly sensed that something was wrong. After getting into the car, she quietly asked Mr. Luo, "Achen, did I do something wrong? Is Grandma angry?"
"No, it's because my third aunt did something wrong again. Grandma was afraid you'd see her angry, so she asked me to take you back first," Luo Chen casually made up an excuse.
At this moment, he felt somewhat agitated. He was worried that his cousin's sudden appearance and knowledge of his marriage would be a shock to her, and that her health could not be compromised any further.
Mo Xiaotuo stared intently at Mr. Luo's profile, and for some reason, she felt that he was lying.
Grandma Luo told them to leave not because Third Aunt had done anything wrong, but because he had done something wrong, though she had no idea what it was.
On the way back, the two didn't speak again. When they arrived at the apartment parking lot, Luo Chen got out of the car and absentmindedly lit a cigarette, his mind filled with images of his sickly cousin.
When he looked up again, he saw that the little wildcat had already entered the elevator. He stubbed out his cigarette, shook his head, and hurriedly followed.
"I'm sorry, something at the company distracted me tonight," he said apologetically.
"I'm fine, but you've been working too hard these past few days. Go back, take a shower, and get some rest." Mo Xiaotuo said apologetically, taking his hand.
Luo Chen looked at the hand held by the little wildcat, a happy smile appearing on his lips, and tightened his grip on her hand.
The two stood hand in hand in the elevator. There were quite a few people coming in on the first floor, and Luo Chen held her protectively in his arms.
Feeling Mr. Luo's warm embrace, Mo Xiaotuo found herself feeling a bit attached.
When they got back to their front door, they saw that the door to the room across the street was open and they could hear voices coming from inside.
Mo Xiaotuo recognized Dai Xingyu and Min Zhixian's voices. If she had known before, she could have avoided greeting them. But now, because of Zhiyan, she had no choice but to speak up.
“You’re back. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Zhiyan called me earlier, wanting to go to the countryside this weekend. Xiao Tuo, see if you can arrange some time?” Min Zhixian didn’t even look at Luo Chen.
He had just obtained more information about Luo Chen. Luo Chen had caused the Luo family to lose a lot of business because of the eldest daughter of the Feng family. Now that the Feng family was going to expand their territory in City A, he wondered if Luo Chen's heart had already flown away.
"The weekend!" Mo Xiaotuo couldn't answer Min Zhixian right now.
"See if you can get leave tomorrow. If you can, we'll go over there. Zhiyan misses... Grandma so much." Min Zhixian thought of Zhiyan's voice, which was tinged with tears. She wondered what she had thought of after going back.
Mo Xiaotuo suddenly stared into Min Zhixian's eyes, those eyes telling her that Zhiyan had said something she didn't know.
Seeing their eyes meet, Luo Chen clenched his fists. Min Zhixian was trying to seize the opportunity.
“If you want to go, just tell Sister Yan. It’s okay, you don’t have to work, I can support you.” Luo Chen patted Xiao Tuo on the shoulder.
“If Mr. Luo can’t even support his wife, it will be a laughing stock.” Min Zhixian retorted sharply. He would not show any mercy if Luo Chen did anything to wrong Xiao Tuo.
Mo Xiaotuo noticed that the two were talking at an odd pace, so she quickly said, "I'll call Sister Yan in a bit to confirm. I... I'll call you."
Call up!
Luo Chen had a headache, and only then did he remember that they had exchanged phone numbers at the hospital.
Min Ji-hyun nodded happily, her face full of gentle smiles.
Luo Chen found that face an eyesore, so he pulled the little wildcat into the room and then slammed the door shut.
Mo Xiaotuo sensed that Mr. Luo was angry, and she felt guilty. She stammered, "I... I did this only for Zhiyan. Zhiyan's illness is very special; it's a rare disease."
"I know, I don't mean to blame you. Get some rest, you've been exhausted these past few days." Luo Chen forced a smile. He felt a strange anger, but he couldn't unleash it on the little wildcat. After speaking, he loosened his tie and went back to his room.
When Mo Xiaotuo saw the door close, she suddenly felt an emptiness in her heart.
