Chapter 544: Chapter 544 Really an Old Fox Chapter 544: Chapter 544 Really an Old Fox Luo Qiao suddenly understood, that there might really be a mix-up with the significant other, that the one she had brought ho last ti wasn’t her actual partner. With this thought, everything beca clear to her, the one she brought last ti must have been an impostor, and the one coming tomorrow should be the real girlfriend.
Little Uncle Yuan wanted to take advantage of the crowd to cover up his partner’s embarrassnt. With strangers around Yuan Family mbers, they wouldn’t notice anything off about Little Uncle Yuan’s partner. This way, he also had ti to reintroduce his family to his partner, allowing her to get accustod and without exposing the truth.
Little Uncle Yuan, truly a cunning fox.
Luo Qiao couldn’t help but admit that she had guessed right, he simply wanted more of them to go, so that the Yuan Family wouldn’t focus all their attention on Jin Jing.
Luo Qiao still made a call to her third brother: “Hello, sorry to trouble you, but could you fetch Luo Siyan for ?”
“Please hold.”
“Hello, who is this?”
“Third brother, it’s , Luo Qiao.”
“Qiaoqiao, have you returned to Capital City?”
“Yeah, I’ve been back for several days now. Third brother, can you take ti off tomorrow?”
“Is sothing the matter?”
“I have to visit Grandpa Yuan tomorrow, Little Uncle Yuan is bringing his partner ho, and it would be good for you to co over and get to know her, I’d like you to go.”
Luo Siyan couldn’t possibly misunderstand Qiaoqiao’s implication, but he really didn’t need to do this. He had reached where he was today through his own hard work and perseverance.
He was sowhat reluctant to go and said, “Qiaoqiao, is it okay if I don’t go?”
Luo Qiao replied, “Third brother, if you can get the day off, I hope you’ll co. So things are better discussed face-to-face, okay? Don’t worry, sister knows what you’re thinking, just take it easy.”
They agreed that Luo Siyan would go directly there the next day and rendezvous at the front gate. After hanging up, Luo Qiao went out to call Stone from where he was happily playing with the other kids, and they both walked back.
The next day, Lu Yichen arrived at the Luo Family bright and early, even having breakfast there.
Luo Xuyuan kept watching him, which made Lu Yichen feel a bit uncomfortable, wondering whether his second uncle had noticed sothing.
After helping grandmother clean up, the group finally left, picking up Fourth Brother Luo Siyuan outside the chanical Factory Residential Compound, and eting with third brother Luo Siyan at the main gate of the compound.
The gifts for the Yuan Family had been prepared early in the morning by Luo Qiao. She explained to her family that she had called soone to prepare them the day before, and they were delivered first thing in the morning: a pot of callias, two jars of ho-brewed fruit wine from her own space, four half-pound packs of tea leaves, plus skin cream she had made herself, and so common fruits.
Everyone carried sothing in their hands, and when they arrived at the Yuan Family, Yuan Weicheng had not yet returned, but the Yuan Family mbers were all present. Just as Luo Qiao was about to start the introductions, Yuan Weicheng entered with his partner.
Indeed, as Luo Qiao had thought, she saw Yuan Weicheng whispering to his partner at the doorway, surely he had already briefed her on the basic details of the family mbers before, and now they were matching nas to faces.
While everyone was being introduced, Jin Jing got to recognize people again. After introductions were finished, Luo Qiao distributed the gifts they had brought, including a box of skin cream for Jin Jing.
Tea leaves were half a pound per family, and the n quickly snatched up their share with their keen eyes and quick hands. The flowers and wine were for Old Master Yuan, fruit for everyone, creating imnse satisfaction – after all, this was also considered giving New Year’s gifts.
Afterward, Luo Qiao surreptitiously provided cover for them. Yuan Weicheng found an opportunity to say to Luo Qiao, “Thank you.”
Luo Qiao acted as if she didn’t know anything, just smiling foolishly. Jin Jing, on the other hand, quickly fit in with everyone.
Yuan Jianing ran over to Luo Qiao, “Today, I find Little Uncle’s partner much more agreeable than before. I don’t know why, but last ti it felt like she was so fake, all pretense. But today, she seems like a different person altogether, and the two of them have quite a rapport.”
Luo Qiao laughed, “As long as Little Uncle likes her, why care so much?”
Tiong Shulan ca over, “Qiaoqiao, mom bought you an outfit a few days ago. Do you want to try it on in your room?”
Luo Qiao smiled, “Sure.”
The Luo brothers all sounded the alarm bells. Qiaoqiao was so casual with the people from Yuan’s second Wife, and they all felt a twinge of jealousy – she was their beloved sister after all.
Thus, each of the Luo brothers resolved internally to work harder and earn more money to spend on their sister.
