Chapter 562: Old Scores
When Master Luo heard his wife’s response, he felt a bit guilty, as he was the one who was fixated on Chen Mingyu after going to his piano recital. The r looked honest, caring and even wiser than most of the rs; because of this, he didn’t think twice before making a fuss in front of his wife and daughter.
He even used his ultimate move of trying to kill himself in front of Shi ifeng, all for the sake of getting her engaged to Chen Mingyu. If only he had been a tad bit more careful, then he would have found out that the Chen family was filled with snakes.
“I apologise.” Master Luo knew that he was the one who brought this trouble to his wife and couldn’t help but lower his head in embarrassnt. “I should have been a bit more careful.” If he had investigated things carefully, then Madam Chen wouldn’t be riding on their heads like this.
Madam Shi waved her hand and said to him, “It’s not your fault. If anything, it’s mine; I knew that Madam Chen was not clear about many things and would let her husband run amok, but I still let her son get engaged to ifeng.” Her eyes flashed with anger and helplessness. “That woman is an idiot. She has such a good son by her side, but she is still bent on using those useless sons of her husband.”
“Well, it’s just an engagent.” Master Luo didn’t think that there was any reason for his wife to worry about the engagent with the Chen family, as it could still be cancelled. They only got their daughter engaged to that r and nothing more. Even if he liked Chen Mingyu, his mother was causing so much trouble for his wife; Master Luo thought that it was not worth it.
Upon hearing his words, Madam Shi curled her lips and said to him, “You think that it will be this easy? You are forgetting that ifeng didn’t want to get engaged to Chen Mingyu because he was close to Luo Huian. However, you made a fuss and made that girl engaged to Chen Mingyu.”
“You know how our daughter is. She can be anything but not vengeful.”
Master Luo turned a bit troubled upon hearing these words. Indeed, his daughter was a bit vengeful. She never agreed to the engagent, but he was also stubborn. What if Luo Huian was related to Chen Mingyu? It’s not like she was married to him. Their relationship was a bit ambiguous, but that was it.
It was not like they were in a relationship that he had broken forcefully.
But he still rembered the look of pure resentnt that his daughter had given him when he asked her to get engaged to Chen Mingyu. Would she really cause trouble if he were to ask her to break the engagent? Even if he hoped that she wouldn’t, Master Luo knew that she would.
“What did she say?” Master Chen asked worriedly when he saw that his wife’s expression had turned really bad.
Madam Chen sighed as she put away her phone and said to her husband, “Madam Shi refused to help.”
When Master Chen heard that Madam Shi refused, his expression turned even more worried. He had gotten used to using the Shi family’s power to get away with a lot of ss, and so did his two sons. Thus, they were not worried about anything these days but now that Madam Shi had suddenly refused to help them, Master Chen was truly worried.
What now? What were they supposed to do now?
“Wife?” Master Chen reached out to hold his wife’s hand. “We cannot let our son be locked up. If soone were to find out that he was locked up with a human trafficker for an entire night, who knows what they would think?” Not to ntion, his son was not a victim; he actually rushed to seduce that woman all for the sake of money and glory.
If soone found out the truth, then he was worried that he would lose all of his face in the city.
“I know.” Mother Chen was also helpless and couldn’t help but bla her husband. “Why did he co to this auction? Didn’t Mingyu ask him to stay at ho? If he is not smart, then there is no need for him to act as if he knows better than others!”
Her eldest son only liked to act as if he were wiser than Chen Mingyu, but the truth was that he was nowhere near comparable to him.
Master Chen lowered his head, and a flash of resentnt flickered in his eyes. He said to his wife, “I know that my son did sothing wrong, but what can we do? If Mingyu had agreed to let him co with us, would he have co behind our backs? You know that our son is a little bit wilful, but he is a kind r.”
Madam Chen cald down a little when she heard the words of her husband, even her resentnt diverted, and she also couldn’t help but bla Chen Mingyu. Why was her son so troubleso? If he had agreed, then nothing like this would have happened!
Chen Mingyu, who listened to their exchange, didn’t even change his expression as he walked away from the hidden corner where he was hiding. He knew that his mother was a befuddled woman. As long as Master Chen said sothing, she would listen to him without any doubt.
He rolled his eyes and headed away, not bothering to waste any more ti.
“What did you say?” Luo Yeqing spat out the tea that she had just drunk. She was sure that she had misheard. What did Luo Qingling an by the auction house’s goods being fake? What about the money that she had used to buy the fake goods? Didn’t it an that she threw it all away?
Luo Qingling glanced at the constipated expression of her mother and calmly explained the situation. Once she finished speaking, the cup in Luo Yeqing’s hand dropped to the floor. She jumped to her feet and shouted to the butler who was just behind her. “Go and get all the antiques appraised at once. If there is anything amiss, contact the police!”
Once she finished speaking, Luo Yeqing’s eyes were filled with resentnt and anger. Why was it that nothing seed to be going well for her? She just bought a few things from the auction house, and they ended up being fakes!
Luo Yeqing thought about the money that she had used for buying those goods and felt as if a block of blood was stuck in her throat. She wanted to throw it up, but the pain was too much for her to bear.
“Mom, you need to calm down.” Seeing that her mother was about to faint, Luo Qingling handed her a cup of water.
When Luo Yeqing saw that her elder daughter was willing to take care of her, her eyes turned slightly red, but then she heard Luo Qingling say, “If you get sick, then how will you get your money back?”
Luo Yeqing: “…”
She almost spat out a mouthful of blood when she heard Luo Qingling.
She thought that her daughter cared about her, but it turned out that she was actually thinking about the money!
“Qingling, you have changed,” Luo Yeqing said with a hint of anger in her tone. Her daughter was so good and filial. How co she suddenly turned so coldhearted all of a sudden?
Luo Qingling raised her head and turned to look at her mother. She said to her, “Mom, you are wronging . I was just saying that you need to look after your body; it will be troubleso in the long run. You know that you have been a bit careless in the past few years, have you forgotten for whom you brought so many antiques?”
As soon as she finished, Luo Yeqing covered her mouth and peeked at Ye Shun, who was reading a book. She turned to look at Luo Qingling and said to her, “Why are you bringing the old scores? Your Daddy Shun has not forgiven . And you are bringing the matter of your father up?”
Luo Qingling pulled her head away from her mother’s hand and said to her, “It’s not who is bringing up the old scores; it is you who haven’t cleared up the scores to begin with. Tell , Mom—did you clear up the matter with my father?”
Luo Yeqing turned a tad bit guilty when she thought about Qin Qiu. She had not t with him for the past few weeks, but the r had co to look for her every day. He insisted on paying back the money that she had lost because of his brother but that was not the reason that Luo Yeqing was avoiding him. The reason was she knew that it had to be Qin Qiu who changed the DNA Report and had no idea how to face that r.
