Chapter 919: Chapter 919: Chance Encounter Chapter 919: Chapter 919: Chance Encounter Ning Hongda now sat there, silent, feeling as if he had completely lost face today. He feared he would no longer command any respect in front of his nephews from now on.
Zhang Yuehua sent everyone out the door, “Your uncle was confused. He only wanted to save his sister, which in itself isn’t wrong, but he shouldn’t have tried to force this upon you.
But please also understand his affection for his sister. The words you said today hurt him deeply. You are even now. Let’s consider this matter closed and turn the page; we mustn’t grow estranged from each other in the future.”
Luo Xuyan nodded, “Aunt, don’t worry. We’ll view each matter on its own rits, and we hope you can understand our feelings too. She gave us life, but that doesn’t an she can take without limit.”
The siblings left together. Siyuan’s house was the closest, so they all went there. Although the sisters-in-law had heard so family matters, it was mostly through hearsay, so they just sat quietly to the side.
Zhou Xiaomin brewed so tea and brought it over, “Drink so tea. Whatever the matter, let’s discuss it. Let’s not get angry again.”
As the son-in-law, Lu Yichen couldn’t say much. He stood up and poured a cup of boiled water for Luo Qiao, “Have so water.”
Luo Qiao took it, waiting quietly for her brothers to speak.
As the eldest, Luo Xuyan was the first to state his position, “If it really cos to that and she really cannot raise the money to take care of herself, then let’s have her sign a docunt severing her relationship with us. We’ll get it notarized, and from that point on, she will have no connection with us.”
Possibly because he was quite angry, he continued, “Let’s also have the two uncles sign it. But for now, let’s not deal with it. I’m just talking about the last resort. I know you all are upset, but public opinion can be fearso. We’re not afraid, but we have to consider the next generation.”
Luo Xuyuan nodded in agreent, “Then let’s do as Big Brother suggests. Given how Uncle feels about his sister, I suspect it won’t end here, and he’ll probably approach us again.”
Luo Siyuan chid in, “Uncle is really sothing. I guess today he still hoped to provoke us into reacting impulsively, using every trick in the book.”
During this short ti, everyone’s mood had cald down. It wasn’t that they minded spending money, but it was infuriating to be sought out only in tis of need while previous agreents were ignored.
The topic soon changed. Luo Qiao looked at Luo Xuyan, “Big Brother, how’s your house hunting going?”
Luo Xuyan replied, “I’ve looked at a few places and am about to make a decision these days. But the housing prices have really gone up a lot in just these past few years.”
Luo Qiao put down her cup, “Big Brother, do you have enough money? If not, I can lend you so first.”
Luo Xuyan glanced at Woo Yuni beside him, smiling, “It’s enough. Your sister-in-law and I are going to finalize the paperwork for the house in the next few days.”
Luo Xuyuan joined in, “Big Brother, if you need any help, just let us know.”
Luo Xuyan nodded, taking a sip of tea, “Let’s not tell Grandpa, Grandma, or Dad about today’s events.”
Soon, Luo Qiao started her busy routine of studying and working, performing surgeries at the hospital three days a week, and spending her other days on school projects and classes, apart from her rest day.
Most of the ti, Rong Daniang took care of the two children. Occasionally, Little Aunt Gu would also co to stay for a few days. Luo Qiao’s daily life was busy yet fulfilling.
Luo Siyuan had not expected that today, he would run into the girl from the chance encounter at the airport. He had felt guilty about breaking her crystal vase and had wanted to find her but didn’t know where to start.
Unexpectedly, they bumped into each other on the street today while chasing a thief. After they subdued the thief together and looked at each other clearly, they were both taken aback.
After handing the thief over to the police, Luo Siyuan spoke first, “I’m really sorry about the other day. How much was the vase? I searched for it several tis in the departnt store but really couldn’t find another one, so I can only compensate you with money.”
The woman glanced at Luo Siyuan, “No need for that. I was also at fault that day, so it’s not all on you. I have other matters to attend to, so I need to leave.”
Luo Xuyuan wanted to say sothing more, but she was already walking away. He reached out to stop her, but she was walking so fast that he could only watch as she disappeared into the crowd…
