Chapter 375: Chapter 374 You Have to Stand Up for Me
Chapter 375 -374 You Have to Stand Up for Me
Luo Ning and Luo Ranran finished their drinks at the bar and stepped out, only to find two middle-aged men following them.
A few steps later, they realized that in addition to these two, there were others discreetly trailing them not far behind.
Luo Ning guessed they must be from the Luo Family. As long as they did not reveal their identities, she would pretend not to know.
The two went straight back to the hotel.
The next morning, just after eight, Luo Ranran came to find Luo Ning, and the two left the hotel again.
The two middle-aged men continued following them, and so did those in hiding.
After they took a car to the harbor, they saw two boats not far away, each marked.
Luo Ranran had shown Luo Ning before, and she recognized one as belonging to the Lou Family and the other to the Luo Family.
She found it amusing—was the Luo Family so worried she would have run away before?
Otherwise, no one had shown up since yesterday to take her back to the Luo Family.
Luo Ranran took Luo Ning’s arm and said, “Brother Ning, let’s go.”
It was just an intimate gesture between close friends, but to the eyes of the Lou and Luo Family members, it was completely inappropriate.
Lou Xi looked to the sky in disbelief; his little aunt was indeed audacious. Grandfather had stressed over and over that she was not allowed to bring Luo Ning to the island.
He approached to remind them, “Little Aunt, the Luo Family has sent someone to pick up Miss Luo.”
So you can let go now.
Luo Ranran raised an eyebrow, “What does it matter to us if the Luo Family sends someone? Luo Ning is a guest I invited over to my home.”
Lou Xi was about to speak when an old woman descended from the Luo Family’s boat.
Her face stern, her eyes fell on Luo Ning’s arm, interlinked with Luo Ranran’s, full of disdain and disapproval.
Then she coldly said to Luo Ranran, “After all, Luo Ning is the child of the Second Young Master of the Luo Family. If she’s going to the island, it’s naturally better for her to return to the Luo Family first.”
Luo Ranran scoffed, “How come I heard that Luo Ning doesn’t even acknowledge the Luo Family? So why should she go to the Luo Family?”
“The Luo Family’s affairs are none of Lady Lou’s concern.”
Although the old woman’s gaze toward Luo Ranran seemed calm, it hid displeasure.
In her view, people like Luo Ranran not only shamed the aristocratic family but were also the disgrace of women.
Had this been in the Luo Family, such a calamity would have been expelled and submerged in a pig cage long ago.
Who knows what the Lou Family was thinking, letting her disgrace them in public.
Luo Ranran rolled her eyes, “You’re wrong there; Luo Ning is my guest, and it has nothing to do with the Luo Family.”
Her expression then turned cold, “If anything, that’s my line to say. Your Luo Family wanting to take away my guest is overstepping.”
Lou Xi, seeing Luo Ranran confront an elder from the Lou Family, couldn’t help but feel a headache.
He immediately stepped forward, trying to persuade, “Little Aunt, the Family Head told you to…”
Before he could finish, he was silenced by a stern look from Luo Ranran, “Shut up, you have no say here.”
Lou Xi’s face reddened, infuriated.
Yet he had to admit, he was somewhat afraid of this fearsome little aunt.
“I have a say, don’t I?” At that moment, an elder from the Lou Family emerged from the boat, his face stern as he addressed Luo Ranran.
Thankfully, the Family Head had anticipated the young lady’s temperament and had sent him to oversee things.
Luo Ranran was not surprised by the elder’s appearance; her father might not have much skill in Feng Shui Mystical Technique, but he was adept with schemes.
Unyieldingly, she stated, “Today, I indeed intend to take Luo Ning as my guest to visit the island.”
The old woman’s look toward Luo Ranran directly conveyed her displeasure.
She then added a touch of threat, “Lady Lou, if you do not wish the relationship between our families to suffer, please allow me to take Luo Ning away.”
Luo Ranran laughed out loud, “What does it have to do with me if the relations between two families are affected?”
She coldly stared at the old woman, “Are you planning to take someone away without asking the person involved first?”
This old woman had never regarded Luo Ning since the beginning.
Her attitude towards Luo Ning was like dealing with a maid from an island family, simply asking for trouble.
She couldn’t help but want to see how Luo Ning would handle it next, she liked the thrill.
So she stealthily glanced at Luo Ning, who looked calm and showed no emotion.
Brother Ning was truly Brother Ning, steady even in such a situation, anyone else would have lost their temper long ago.
Losing one’s temper would indeed be considered an inferior response, showing that although one may not admit it verbally, the Luo Family was still significant in their heart.
On the other hand, Luo Ning’s behavior now indicated true indifference towards the Luo Family.
The old woman knew Luo Ranran was instigating trouble, yet she didn’t take it to heart.

Her expressionless face looked at Luo Ning, commanding in a tone similar to giving orders, “The Family Head asked me to bring you back.”
Luo Ning completely ignored the old woman and smilingly asked Luo Ranran, “Are we still going to your place?”
Luo Ranran said cheerfully, “Of course we are!”
“Then let’s go,” Luo Ning said, without even a glance at the old woman.
As if the other was just a speck of dust, totally unable to catch her eye.
The smile on Luo Ranran’s face grew deeper as she linked arms with Luo Ning and headed towards the Lou Family’s boat.
Two middle-aged men blocked their way, “Miss, the Family Head also meant for Miss Luo to return to the Luo Family first, then visit the island afterward.”
This was somewhat a way to give Luo Ning and Luo Ranran a graceful exit.
Luo Ranran gave the two men a contemptuous look, “Are you two dogs sure you want to block the way?”
Her big brother’s dogs were indeed so annoying.
This remark changed the men’s expressions; though they were from a side branch, they had never been insulted like this before.
The Lou Family Elder’s expression darkened further, “Miss, please show some restraint.”
“The Family Head’s intentions, if you still want to leave the island in the future, it’s best to be obedient,” came a similarly threatening tone.
Luo Ranran’s previously smiling face instantly changed, looking pitifully at Luo Ning.
“Brother Ning, now the Lou Family’s dogs come to bite and bully me, you must stand up for me!”
Lou Family’s people: “…” Too shameful to watch.
True to form, the family’s odd freak wasn’t without reason; no one else but Luo Ranran could change faces so quickly.
However, letting Luo Ning take charge was the issue, could Luo Ning really do it?
Elder Liao was somewhat baffled by Luo Ranran now; he had always known this girl to be exceptionally cunning.
But his old face was particularly embarrassed now; this rascal even called him a dog.
Fortunately, he had always sided with the eldest young master, opposing this rascal as heiress, otherwise, he’d truly be angered to death.
Luo Family’s people: “…” Miss Lou from the Lou Family indeed had some issues.
Luo Ning patted Luo Ranran on the shoulder to comfort her, saying, “Alright!”
“Anyone who bully Ranran is bullying me.”
She coldly looked at Elder Liao, “You lack manners and upbringing towards your own Miss, there’s still time to apologize.”
Elder Liao was infuriated again, this damned girl from the Luo Family actually accused them of lacking manners and upbringing, those who come from outside just couldn’t make it to high society.
“Miss Luo, best you don’t meddle in Lou Family matters.”
He indeed wanted to deal with Luo Ning immediately, but he was somewhat wary of Luo Yicheng, so he held back.
