Chapter 348 -347 Too Tough
Luo Kaiyuan choked on Luo Ying’s words.
He said with displeasure, “But you shouldn’t have just blurted it out so carelessly, after all, there are secretive matters involved that you do not know about.”
Luo Ying mentally curled her lip, thinking to herself, what secretive matters could there be, if not just some grand-sounding empty words.
She spread her hands, her face expressing helplessness, “But I’ve already said it.”
Luo Kaiyuan was at a loss for words, as since Luo Ying had already spilled the beans, there was no way to change that.
He glanced at the time and instructed her, “There’s almost half an hour left before the auction starts, go and call Luo Ning to see me.”
He had a regular resting room on this side.
Luo Ying nodded, “Okay!”
After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran to find Luo Ning.
Luo Yuefeng’s eyes deepened, the current situation was completely beyond her expectations.
There was nothing she could do now but to go to the resting room with Luo Kaiyuan and the others.
Luo Ying found Luo Ning and pulled her aside.
“Cousin, Granduncle wants to see you,” she recounted the earlier incident.
Luo Ning had already noticed that the old man from the Luo family had been watching her, with a complex look in his eyes, and she guessed he must know her identity by now.
She just didn’t expect that he would want to meet her so soon.
Since that was the case, she decided to meet him, to see what he wanted, and not to make it difficult for Luo Ying.
“Alright, I’ll go with you.”
Luo Ning told Lu Xun and the others to enter the venue first and followed Luo Ying to the resting room.
After entering, Luo Kaiyuan was sitting in a carved wooden chair.
Seeing Luo Ning, his face showed a trace of an elder’s sternness as he spoke first, “Please, sit.”
Luo Ning didn’t speak, and she sat down opposite him with Luo Ying.
Soon, someone brought over tea.
A subtle fragrance of tea permeated the air; Luo Ning recognized that this tea wasn’t ordinary—it must be from tea leaves picked from a tree at least a hundred years old and nurtured in a specially arranged Array.
She took a sip and indeed felt a refreshing sensation soothing her heart.
Watching Luo Ning drink tea calmly, with no hint of constraint, Luo Kaiyuan couldn’t help but nod.
She was indeed a child of their Luo family, her demeanor was excellent.
It’s a pity that she was born to a woman outside; it would have been better if she were the child of Luo Yicheng and a lady from an ancient family.
If Luo Yicheng had a child with the First Branch Lady, that child would undoubtedly be even more outstanding.
Just look at Luo Yuefeng to know that the First Branch Lady is quite capable of nurturing children.
Luo Ning remained silent, forcing Luo Kaiyuan to break the silence once more.
“Luo Ying must have told you about my identity, I am your Granduncle Luo Kaiyuan.”
Luo Ning toyed with the teacup, saying nonchalantly, “No, please don’t. I haven’t agreed to return to the Luo family, let’s not pretend to be relatives.”
She would have to see whether she agreed or not if they wanted to recognize her.
Besides, if she had not shown any hint of talent in Feng Shui Mystical Technique and were just an ordinary girl, would the people from the Luo family still be so eager to meet her?
Luo Ning felt that this person would probably just pretend not to see her, forcing her father into submission before deciding whether to acknowledge her or not.
Luo Kaiyuan was taken aback, “Is this how you treat your elders?”

Luo Ning looked up at him, “But you are not my elder.”
She said with a touch of impatience, “What exactly do you want from me? I have limited time and no patience to beat around the bush with you here.”
Regarding the Luo family, she harbored genuine disdain from the bottom of her heart and had no intention of showing them a warm demeanor or attitude.
This very attitude infuriated Luo Kaiyuan.
He had lived so long, yet for the first time a junior had spoken to him with such disregard.
“Insolence!” he couldn’t help but slap the table next to him.
Luo Ning put down her teacup and stood up, “Since there’s nothing important, I’ll take my leave.”
After saying that, she really began to walk out.
This completely caught Luo Kaiyuan off guard, yet his purpose hadn’t been fulfilled, so he could only sigh.
“Enough, sit down and talk.”
Then he lamented, “Your temperament, really resembles your father’s.”
Luo Yicheng was also a troublemaker in the family, directly rejecting the words of his elders whenever he disagreed, causing headaches for everyone.
Only then did Luo Ning sit back down, “Don’t play the sentiment card with my dad, just speak plainly.”
Her father was still locked up in the Forbidden Land by these old guys, yet they had the audacity to bring him up.
Luo Kaiyuan was struck dumb: “…”
It seemed Luo Ning harbored significant hostility towards the Luo Family, and that damn girl Luo Ying, how could she reveal those things in advance?
He had originally thought that by revealing his identity, Luo Ning would be delighted to acknowledge their relationship willingly.
He also noticed Luo Ning was different from what he had imagined, so he bluntly said, “After all, you are a child of the Luo Family, and I don’t want you to be left out in the cold, so I’d like to take you back to the main Luo Family house in a few days.”
Luo Ning asked, “What about my mother and my little brother?”
Luo Kaiyuan candidly replied, “Your brother can also be taken to the main house, but your mother cannot.”
Since they were children of the Luo Family, taking them in would cause no harm, as long as they did not get in the way.
Luo Ning smiled sarcastically, “My mother can’t, is it to make room for my father’s First Branch Lady?”
“You families really are messy, even like incest, a younger brother marrying his sister-in-law, you really know how to play,” she curled her lip.
Luo Yuefeng couldn’t bear Luo Ning’s sarcasm towards her mother, and couldn’t help but interject, “Inheriting two branches has existed since ancient times, how could it be incest?”
“Don’t speak so unpleasantly, this was decided by the elders of the Luo Family.”
She thought Luo Ning would cling to the Luo Family, who knew she would be so tough.
By saying this, she also meant to provoke Luo Kaiyuan, as Luo Ning clearly had no respect for the Luo Family elders.
Luo Ning raised an eyebrow at her, “I’m speaking with the Luo Family elders, does an adopted daughter like you have any right to interject?”
“An adopted daughter is still an adopted daughter, can never be presentable.”
Then she complained, “The Luo Family’s brains must be scrambled, always fond of raising children from other families, just to humiliate their own.”
Even though Luo Ying was the granddaughter of the Family Head’s spouse, her standing within the family was far lower than Luo Yuefeng, the adopted daughter.
It was all because the old lady favored the First Branch Lady, which led to elevating this adopted granddaughter, making this woman seem above everyone else.
Luo Ning internally detested the First Branch Lady, who was oddly manipulative behind the scenes, as well as Luo Yuefeng for being scheming and calculating.
Thus, her words spared no feelings.
Luo Ying looked at Luo Ning with eyes full of admiration; her cousin was just too tough, and the blunt words she threw out felt so satisfying.
Her cousin truly lived up to her idol status—cool, handsome, and thrilling!
In truth, Luo Yuefeng and her mother were nothing but usurpers, pretending to be innocent victims, as if everything was arranged by the Luo Family elders.
What she loathed most about her Eldest Aunt was that on the surface, she claimed to have deep-rooted affection for the Eldest Uncle, wanting a child of Luo bloodline. If so affectionate, she might as well have gone with the Eldest Uncle herself.
Having a child with another man, wasn’t that a form of betrayal? It felt like a contamination of the term true love.
Luo Yuefeng had not expected Luo Ning to mock her like that, and her face turned white.
Being an adopted daughter was a thorn in her heart that would always be there.
In the Luo Family, no one dared to speak like this, but as soon as Luo Ning arrived, she pierced through it, making her seem utterly malicious and hateful.
