Chapter 597: Republic Divorced Wife Cannon Fodder (11)
The next day.
Luo Ning and her sister finished breakfast together.
“Sister, have soone bring Xue Liu back to the courtyard, and she will leave with us.”
She added, “As for Hai Yun, just sell her to a nightclub to be the lowest-class dancer.”
Luo Jun was stunned, “Ah, you’re going to sell Hai Yun?”
Didn’t her sister used to like Hai Yun the most? Although she herself didn’t like that girl, she felt she was too scheming.
Luo Ning nodded, “She had long been bought by Madam Huo and betrayed .”
“And she did a lot of things behind my back that hard my interests, and even joined forces with the Huo Family to try to kill .”
She coldly continued, “Back then, I helped her escape a fate of becoming a dancer, but since she doesn’t cherish it, let her return to the life she was originally supposed to lead.”
Luo Jun didn’t expect that girl to be so bold as to even want to take her sister’s life.
“Alright, I will instruct soone to do it.”
That ungrateful wretch doesn’t deserve any sympathy.
Just after they finished speaking, soone from the Luo Family arrived.
They said the Grandma and Third Madam wanted to see Luo Ning and asked her to return to the Luo Family.
Luo Ning had been prepared for a while and went back to the Luo Family with her sister.
After they returned, they were indeed first brought to the main hall to et Old Master Luo and two uncles.
As Luo Ning entered, she glanced at the three n and said indifferently, “Grandpa, is there sothing you needed?”
As for the other two n, she completely ignored them.
These two branches of the family hadn’t stopped bullying their widowed mother and orphaned sisters after her father died.
And they were very disrespectful to Grandma.
The original person had always maintained superficial relations with them, but Luo Ning couldn’t even bother to give them that.
Old Master Luo watched Luo Ning and realized her temperant and feelings had completely changed.
He thought to himself, they had forced his gentle-natured granddaughter to this point; the Huo Family’s actions were indeed an.
But as much as he thought about it, his anger was not appeased.
“I heard you gave Commander Huo a divorce paper?” This was what made Old Master Luo most furious.
Where was there a woman who divorces her husband? Luo Ning was utterly rebellious.
Moreover, such an action offended the Huo Family and brought no benefits to the Luo Family, only troubles.
Luo Ning walked over with her sister and directly found a seat to sit down.
She looked at Old Master Luo nonchalantly and countered, “Huo Sichen married under false pretenses, failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a husband and wife, was unfaithful and disloyal, and even kept a mistress. Shouldn’t he be divorced?”
Old Master Luo was choked by Luo Ning’s words. “Nonsense, who is the mistress?”
“Commander Huo wasn’t exactly tricking into marriage; it was just him going abroad. Coming back and finding your marriage arranged and wanting to oppose it is also normal.”
Ran Yinyin’s family background is not sothing the Luo Family could afford to provoke.
Luo Ning raised an eyebrow, “According to your belief, isn’t an illicit relationship without a matchmaker’s involvent considered a mistress?”
“Huo Sichen left directly abroad on the day he was married. I have been serving his parents and raising his son for four years. He returns under the banner of opposing arranged marriages and wants a divorce; am I really the one at fault here?”
“Since he didn’t want to marry , since I am a feudal relic, then he should have had the courage not to marry at all!”
She looked at Old Master Luo with a smile that was not quite a smile, “Many people are like this, shaless and disgusting, yet they want to don the robe of righteousness.”
“Playing the saint after being a sinner, where is such a good deal?”
Old Master Luo and the others were completely shocked by Luo Ning’s remarks.
Was this really that obedient, compliant, gentle, and virtuous Luo Ning?
When did she beco so sharp-tongued?
Old Master Luo couldn’t hold back, he slamd his hand on the table, “This is an outrage, you are simply an outrage.”
“What happened to your lady’s education? Are these words befitting a lady of a reputable family?”
Luo Ning retorted, “In the past, I was never disgraceful, studied the won’s promulgations, and beca a proper lady of the house. Yet, I was still usurped by a so-called modern woman who went overseas, engaging in a loveless marriage.”
“Grandfather’s words are quite contradictory, aren’t they?”
“From your words, it seems you’re in favor of Huo Sichen and Ran Yinyin’s so-called true love being together,” Luo Ning said.
“Ran Yinyin is restless, not a lady of the house. Not only did she go overseas, but she also flirted with other n and beca what’s known as a modern woman.”
“Since she could do it and Grandfather still approved, why does it change when it cos to ?”
Old Master Luo choked, “I never said they were right.”
Deep down, he despised won like Ran Yinyin, those so-called modern won whom he thought to be corrupting morals.
But behind Ran Yinyin stood the Ran Family; the Huo Family and the Ran Family – they were too powerful to provoke.
Luo Ning stood up, “It seems Grandfather and I disagree too much, so there’s no point in continuing this conversation.”
“The daughter who is married off is like the water that’s spilled; now, in this new era, Grandfather should stop trying to interfere in this spilled water.”
She looked at him coldly, “Otherwise, I fear my father won’t rest in peace, since his two daughters are being bullied by their in-laws while their grandfather and family not only refuse to help but also kick us when we’re down.”
Today, he was here to plainly break off relations.
Old Master Luo, hearing Luo Ning’s defiant words, turned blue with rage.
It was as if he saw again his disobedient, willful son, over whom he had no control.
“Fine! You’re not even fully mature yet, and you dare to be arrogant with .”
Old Master Luo scoffed, “Fine, I won’t ddle with your spilled water, let’s see how you continue to ruin yourself.”
Luo Ning was stubborn now, but she would cry when the Huo Family dealt with her later.
Eventually, she would co back to him, and then he would send her back to the Huo Family. For now, he would let her taste the consequences of disobedience.
Luo Ning smiled, “Then, goodbye, Grandfather!”
She pulled Luo Jun and walked straight out of the main hall, leaving behind an infuriated old man and house servants who couldn’t believe Luo Ning had changed so much.
Luo Ning and Luo Jun went to the backyard and t their anxious grandmother and mother.
Upon seeing Luo Ning, they called out all the maidservants from the room and couldn’t help but burst into tears while holding her hands.
Luo Ning consoled them and told them about her plans to go out of town.
However, she didn’t say she was going to Xiang Island, not because she didn’t trust them, but to prevent the Huo Family and Luo Family from interrogating them.
Not knowing was better for them.
While worried, they agreed.
They knew the Huo Family wouldn’t let this go, and it would be easy for them to secretly trouble two weak won.
The Luo Family was also a big problem.
When they heard Luo Ning would co back to take them away from the Luo Family later, they were both eager and relieved, although they felt the possibility was small. Still, they agreed and encouraged verbally.
They even forcefully gave Luo Ning and Luo Jun so private money and told them to be cautious in everything.
After leaving the Luo Family, Luo Ning went to the bank the next day to withdraw the money from her savings account.
Since there were people from the Huo Family following her, it wasn’t the ti to access her safety deposit box.
The Huo Family was recently trying to mitigate the impact of Luo Ning’s divorce and didn’t want to act openly against her because they dreaded public gossip.
So, they patiently waited for the best mont to recapture their prey.
After a few more days, Luo Ning finally spent money to get the biggest gang in Beicheng to help them flee the city by car.
They then moved through two cities before boarding a train to Guang City.
In Guang City, without delay, they took a ship with black-market tickets, smuggling themselves to Xiang Island.
By the ti the Huo Family and Luo Family realized sothing was amiss, Luo Ning and Luo Jun were already on the train heading to Guang City.
When they finally traced the clues to Guang City and sent people to look for them, it seed as if they had vanished without a trace.
The Huo Family was furious, venting their anger on the Luo Family, suppressing many of the Luo’s enterprises, and relegating Old Master Luo and his two sons to the Qingshui Governnt Office with no prospects for advancent.
Old Master Luo was extrely angry but also regretful, having underestimated his granddaughters previously.
He had never imagined they had the audacity to sneak away.
Ti quickly passed, and three years went by.
