Chapter 46: Treating A Villain Like A Family Member
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Luo Tingxue chose to forgive Luo Zheng and the rest had also decided not to pursue the matter on Old Mr. Luo’s account.
Since the juniors of the Luo Family disliked Luo Zheng, they decided to leave, for there was nothing for them to say to her.
Luo Zheng was not at all bothered by her cousins’ attitudes and her goal was just to ease the tension between them so as to avoid putting her grandfather in a spot.
At last, Old Mr. Luo, Luo Zheng and her uncle stayed behind to catch up with each other.
Old Mr. Luo mostly asked about the Mu Family and whether or not they had ill-treated Luo Zheng... He also mentioned that Luo Zheng could move back in with the Luo Family as long as she wanted to.
If possible, Luo Zheng would definitely leave the Mu Family’s hell hole and stay by Old Mr. Luo’s side.
However, it was not the appropriate time to do so yet.
The Mu Family were occupying the mansion that her mother had left behind for her, and were spending the dividends that she was entitled to because of her shares in the Luo Family’s company. They were taking advantage of her... and yet, they were not in the least bit grateful and even tried to harm her as much as they could. How could there be such an easy deal?
Hence, Luo Zheng decided to make the Mu Family pay the price and make them end up with nothing. Only then would she chase them away!
Not wanting Old Mr. Luo to worry, Luo Zheng decided to answer him perfunctorily by saying that the Mu Family treated her well.
“Lass Zheng, feel free to tell me if they had treated you unfairly! With me around, the Luo Family will forever be your home...”
Old Mr. Luo was old in his years and began to feel a little tired after speaking to her for a long time.
Luo Zheng agreed and eased him into a comfortable lying position as a warm and fuzzy feeling filled her heart.
Luo Zheng then turned around and faced her eldest uncle who had remained silent.
As the head of one of the four major families, Luo Shuyuan exuded a menacing and commanding aura. He scanned Luo Zheng from head to toe in a shrewd manner.
“Eldest Uncle, do you have something to say to me?”
Luo Zheng broke the silence after tucking Old Mr. Luo beneath the blanket.
This time, Luo Shuyuan asked straightforwardly, “Zheng, why did you come here?”
Luo Shuyuan had looked Luo Zheng up several times before, not only for the sake of her shares but also because he was concerned about Luo Zheng... However, Luo Zheng had been brainwashed by Mu Tianwei and hence, saw him as an enemy.
Over time, he began to grow increasingly disappointed and hence, decided to wash his hands of her matters!
“I’m here to see Grandpa.”
Luo Zheng answered him truthfully with no intentions of lying to him.
She then looked up at Luo Shuyuan dauntlessly and added, “Uncle, I was blind to have treated villains as my family in the past! You’re right, the Mu Family is very greedy and vicious. I should have seen through this earlier! I’m sorry, I almost implicated the Luo Family... ”
“So, you want me to help you?”
Luo Shuyuan did not sound too warm nor aloof, and was very straightforward with his questions too.
Surprisingly, Luo Zheng shook her head and said with a look of determination, “The Mu Family is indebted to me. I must make them pay!”
Luo Shuyuan then scanned Luo Zheng from head to toe sternly.
He initially wanted to find out the reason for her drastic change... Unfortunately, he was not close to his niece at all and hence, he had no choice but to drop the idea.
Forget it, I will let her go through some pain and torment so that she can be shaped into a better person!
Seeing that it was getting late, Luo Zheng left without saying goodbye to Old Mr. Luo because she did not wish to disturb him.
Before she left, she bade Luo Shuyuan goodbye. He then said, “From now on, come home to visit us more often. Your grandpa has nothing to do at home and he’s always talking about missing you... ”
Luo Zheng stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at Luo Shuyuan before saying smilingly, “Alright, Uncle, I’ll do that!”
Luo Shuyuan clearly intended to accept her again. It was not too late for her to make up for their strained relationship.
Luo Zheng took a few glances at Old Mr. Luo before leaving merrily.
Watching as she left, Luo Shuyuan whipped out his mobile phone and stared at a photo of a couple who were behaving intimately with each other.
Feeling sentimental, he murmured, “Huawei, my dear little sister, are you happy now? Your daughter has finally grown up!”
