Chapter 304 Luo Yingying
“Regret?”
Qu Qingning raised his eyebrows and stepped on the chest of the fat servant, laughing, “I’ve never regretted in my life. Do you want me to experience that?”
The fat servant spat blood under Qu Qingning’s feet, full of fear. He supported himself with his hands and wanted to escape from here.
“Psycho, you are a psycho!! How dare you! He Family are not cowards. You… you’ll see…”
Pia!!
“You are too noisy!”
Qu Qingning impatiently knocked him out. Witnessing what had happened on the fat servant, the rest of the servants had climbed together. They were afraid to speak up just as those terrified diners.
“It’s quiet finally.”
Qu Qingning glanced at the diners who had already escaped, turned around and asked, “Brother Luo, where are we going next?”
Luo Yichen thought for a while and said, “Brother Qu, please handle this. I want to go home before we set up.”
Qu Qingning smiled, “Hey! It is so easy! You go home first. When the thing is over, we will find a way to find you.”
Luo Yichen agreed and went out to take off a black cloth hat from Yun Yi’s horse. Then he disappeared in the street.
Yun Yi looked at the trembling innkeeper, and put three gold leaves on the counter. He said, “Next is none of your business.”
When the innkeeper saw the gold leaves, his dismal eyes immediately glowed. These three gold leaves were enough to buy ten inns of his size. With the money, he could leave for other places to restart his business.
Thinking of this, the innkeeper stuffed down his fear and kept saying thank you.
After handling the matter of the inn, Yun Yi went to the backyard and saw a group of tied servants of He Family. He nodded, “Well, it won’t be a problem to leave them here for half a day. Let’s go to Luo Family.”
Hearing this, Qu Qingning shook his head, “Hey, don’t worry. Let’s take a sip here and leave in two hours. It is clear that Luo Yichen just wants to go back and have a look alone. It’s not appropriate if we are there.”
Yun Yi recalled the situation when Luo Yichen left and was a little surprised, “I didn’t expect you to be so careful.”
Qu Qingning drank wine and was suddenly unhappy, “Be careful with what you said. I’ve always been excellent, ok? It’s just because Su Li and Fang Yuan always take my chances.”
Yun Yi smiled, and sat down to pour a glass of wine to taste slowly. He stopped arguing with Qu Qingning.
—
In the east of Luoyue City, there was a mansion that looked old. Its gate was open. With lights and festoons, there was full of servants and maids in new clothes and guests in luxurious clothes. It was bustling.
There was an old butler standing at the door, nodding to welcome the guests. The smile on his face was more like a cry. His desperate eyebrows and cloudy eyes seemed to show that he had lost his spirit.
It seemed that the guests didn’t care about him, and went straight to the courtyard.
“Ah, the family is completely hopeless after the Miss married.”
With a deep sigh, the old butler suddenly felt that the light was dim. He looked up and saw that there was a tall man in black in front of him, with a long sword hanging on his waist and a black hat on his head. He could not see his face clearly.
“This… Childe?”
Luo Yichen looked at the wrinkled old man in front of him, but didn’t answer.
Seven years had passed, and Butler Wu was too old to be the man who was hale and hearty in his memory.
Butler Wu gazed at the young man. Although he looked strange, Butler Wu felt that he knew him somehow.
First Master?
It was impossible because the First Master had been dead for seven years. The Miss was unwilling to set up a memorial tablet. Over the years, she had asked people to look for him in secret, but nothing had been found.
If he was still alive, why there was no messages from him?
Thinking of this, Butler Wu could not help smiling bitterly, and asked, “Childe, are you here for the banquet?”
“I…”
Luo Yichen was very excited, but suddenly he didn’t know what to say.
Unusually, he was slightly scared.
In the hearts of his family members, he may had died a long time ago. At that time, a lot of bad things happened just because he had killed He Jinling in a snit.
Now he suddenly appeared. What would the family members react?
Were they happy or resentful?
When Luo Yichen didn’t respond for a long time, Butler Wu only thought that the man was a cold guest. He immediately showed the way and said, “Please sit down, Childe. The feast is about to begin. However, in order to avoid causing other people’s dissatisfaction, you’d better take off your hat.”
Hearing this, Luo Yichen even lowered his hat and said in a hoarse voice, “I will not go in. Which family did Luo Yingying marry?”
At this moment, he made up his mind!
If his sister married a good family in a good condition, it was not necessary for him to appear.
After destroying He Family, it was enough to secretly subsidize them and all the problems would be solved.
When Butler Wu heard Luo Yichen’s question, he suddenly changed his face and said suspiciously, “Maybe… Childe Fan hasn’t given up yet? No, no, Childe Fan was locked at home…”
Although it was noisy at the moment, and Butler Wu’s voice was so low, Luo Yichen still heard clearly.
“Childe Fan… Fan Tianxing?”
Butler Wu was shocked and said happily, “You are really a subordinate of Childe Fan!”
As he said this, he took a careful look at the courtyard. Seeing that the guests hadn’t noticed it, he immediately led Luo Yichen to the nearby courtyard.
“Come with me!”
Luo Yichen frowned and let Butler Wu take him to a place with few people. “What happened? Yingying is going to get married, but why is Tianxing locked up?” He asked.
Butler Wu was nervous and didn’t notice that Luo Yichen used an intimate address. He said in a hurry, “If you are the helper invited by Childe Fan, don’t ask and just take the Miss and leave!”
“Leave?”
Luo Yichen stopped suddenly and said in a cold voice, “Why do you want us to leave? Where to go?”
Butler Wu also stopped with his step. Luo Yichen’s insist made him feel that the man invited by Childe Fan was unreliable, but he could only explain,
“When the Master is ill, the Miss is the only support of the family. How can she get married?”
Dad was ill!
Seven years had passed and the younger sister was twenty-four years old. She had not married for the sake of the family!
Luo Yichen was very angry when he heard the news.
“The Miss was forced to marry by He Family this time! Childe Fan was very angry and wanted to help the Miss escape, but he was locked at home. The Miss had no choice but pretended to agree with the requirement of He Family. In fact, she had been waiting for Childe Fan to send someone to help her.”
Luo Yichen took a deep breath, “He Family? He Jinling was dead. Are there still males in his family?”
Seeing Luo Yichen still had questions, Butler Wu was anxious and complained, “Enough, since you take the money to handle affairs, come with me quickly! I have never said that the Miss would marry He Family. They asked the Miss to marry a ruffian, which is an obvious humiliation. If you don’t move, it will be late when the feast is over!”
This was the truth!
Luo Yichen’s face immediately changed. He grabbed Butler Wu and hurried to the backyard in a flash.
Butler Wu faintly saw the surrounding scene shaking, and arrived at the front of the Miss’s yard. He was shocked but very glad that Childe Fan could invite such a master. The Miss didn’t need to get married!
At the moment, he was so happy that he didn’t find that the stranger was so familiar with the layout of Luo Family.
“Yingying… she still lives here.”
Luo Yichen landed and put down Butler Wu. He recalled, then opened the door and went into the yard.
At the moment, he did not hesitate any more.
Butler Wu happily stepped up to the door and laughed, “Miss, Miss, Childe Fan’s subordinate is here.”
“Butler Wu, come in with that gentleman.”
As soon as his voice fell, there came a female voice in the room. Luo Yichen was slightly surprised that the voice was still the same as before, but the tone was totally different from that seven years ago, with less naivety and softness, but more strength and sophistication.
How did a 17-year-old girl support her family in the past seven years?
He couldn’t imagine.
Squeak —
The wooden door made a slight noise. Seeing the people in the room, Butler Wu and Luo Yichen were stunned at the same time.
The girl sitting in front of the dresser was fully dressed up. She was so beautiful and different from those weak ladies. Her lips were closed, her eyes were fixed, and her face would not change even if the mountain collapsed.
At this moment, Luo Yichen thought she was a little like Su Li.
“Miss, why are you still wearing wedding clothes? Didn’t I prepare the maid clothes for you?”
Butler Wu was so anxious that his forehead was sweating. He was about to rush into the room to find the maid’s clothes to put on her. Luo Yingying shook her head and stopped him. Her eyes were firm, “I will not leave. What if He Family is angry when I leave? What should dad do? What should you do?”
After that, she turned to Luo Yichen who was standing in the doorway, and apologized, “I’m sorry to ask you to run for nothing and please thank Childe Fan for me. Thanks to his protection these years, our Luo Family can survive, but this time… I can’t be a burden of him anymore.”
Although Fan Family was strong, it could not compete with He Family who was divine and powerful. The master of Fan Family knew this, so he locked his favorite son, Fan Tianxing.
Luo Yichen kept silent, and didn’t move. Luo Yingying was confused, and said again,
“Your Excellency?”
This time, there was a response.
Luo Yichen slowly walked to their mother’s tablet that could be seen as soon as he entered the door. In Luo Yingying’s puzzled eyes, he silently burnt incense, and finally said,
“Mom… When did she die?”
Hearing this, Luo Yingying’s body shook greatly.
