Chapter 160: Partnering to Trick Brother
Tears flashed in Shen Yourong's eyes, as if she was moved by Luo Lingliu's sincerity. She took a small step forward involuntarily, as if she wanted to get closer to the man who moved her heart.
Seeing this, Luo Lingliu flew over to Shen Yourong without hesitation and hugged her tightly in his arms. His heart was beating like thunder, and the tension and worry in his heart finally turned into joy and relief at this moment.
Luo Lingliu gently stroked Shen Yourong's back and said softly: "Yourong! From now on, let me take care of you for the rest of your life! I will use all my strength to protect you and will never let you be in any danger again!"
Shen Yourong's face blossomed with a happy smile. She raised the corners of her mouth slightly and responded softly: "Luo Lang, when will we get married?"
Luo Lingliu answered without hesitation: "Of course the sooner the better! I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you."
Shen Yourong slowly closed her eyes and said shyly, "Then tomorrow! I hope to become your wife as soon as possible."
Luo Lingliu could not help but be stunned. He did not expect Shen Yourong to be so eager to get married. But his heart was also full of sweetness and expectation, so he smiled and said, "Okay, since you can't wait, let's get married tomorrow!"
Luo Lingliu personally escorted Shen Yourong back to the gate of the Shen Mansion, and told the attendants beside him: "Hurry up and pass the news of my upcoming marriage to the General's Mansion! The situation is urgent and we can only deal with it temporarily. I will report it to my mother in detail when I return home!"
Hearing this, the attendant scratched his head and replied with difficulty: "Sir! The General's Mansion has sent someone! The ones who came are none other than the Sixth Young Master and the Seventh Young Lady!"
Luo Lingliu was very surprised after hearing this, and quickly asked: "Oh? Where are they now?"
The attendant looked a little embarrassed. He lowered his head and muttered softly, "Uh... they are now in the Furong Restaurant! And I also heard that they came here this time... actually to oppose your marriage!"
Luo Lingliu frowned tightly, and his face became serious. He gritted his teeth and ordered decisively: "Okay, then let's go and meet them immediately!" After that, he led his entourage to the Furong Restaurant.
Luo Lingliu walked into the Furong Restaurant with her entourage calmly, and the entourage followed respectfully. They walked through the spacious and bright lobby and went straight to an elegant private room. When they opened the door, Luo Lingfeng and Luo Lingyue were sitting at the tea table with serious faces, as if they were waiting for some important person to arrive.
Xiao Jinghan looked like he was enjoying a good show, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised and his eyebrows raised as he looked at Luo Lingliu who walked in with interest.
Luo Lingliu walked to the seat calmly, sat down slowly, and personally picked up the teapot to fill a cup of hot tea for himself. He picked up the teacup and gently blew away the hot steam on the surface, then took a sip elegantly, and then said: "I have decided to marry into the Shen family! This matter is a foregone conclusion, you don't need to say anything more!"
Luo Lingfeng wanted to open his mouth to refute, but Luo Lingyue beside him gently patted his shoulder. Luo Lingyue stared at Luo Lingliu sharply and said firmly: "Second brother! Do you know that mother said that men in our general's mansion must never become son-in-laws! Are you going to go against mother's wishes by doing this now?" There was a hint of majesty in her voice that could not be ignored.
Luo Lingliu's expression suddenly changed: "Mother is definitely not the kind of unreasonable person! Miss Shen and I are truly in love! Moreover, mother... once mother finds out about this, she will definitely bless us with joy!"
At this moment, Luo Lingyue was secretly delighted. On weekdays, she rarely had the opportunity to see her second brother suffer a setback. Seeing him like this, Luo Lingyue was so happy that she was overjoyed.
However, she still maintained a serious and solemn expression on her face, and said in a firm tone: "If you insist on becoming a son-in-law! Then, from now on, the Luo family's assets will no longer be yours! You have worked hard for many years to build this kingdom, are you really willing to give it up?"
Luo Lingliu raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile: "Speaking of which, my original intention of joining the business world was actually to allow the soldiers of the Luo Family Army to wear thick and warm cotton clothes, so that they no longer have to endure the bitter cold; and to be able to taste delicious meat from time to time. As for wealth, it is nothing more than a passing cloud to me."
After saying that, he slowly reached out and took off the key and the token of identity hanging from his waist, and handed them to Luo Lingyue solemnly. He said with a firm and trusting look: "Xiao Qi! You are also a genius in the business world, and you also know the hardships and difficulties of soldiers. Now, I entrust all the Luo family's assets to you. I believe that with your talents, you will develop it to a better level! Second brother has full confidence in you!"
Although Luo Lingyue knew that she was acting, she couldn't help but burst into tears when she heard Luo Lingliu's words from the heart.
She nodded vigorously, her voice choking: "Second brother...don't worry! I will definitely not let you down!"
Xiao Jinghan stood aside, secretly admiring Luo Lingliu. He originally thought that Luo Lingliu joined the business world just to pursue personal interests, but he didn't expect that he was actually doing it for the entire Luo Family Army. Such a broad mind and responsibility made people have to look at him with new eyes.
Luo Lingfeng shouted excitedly: "That's great, second brother! You are finally getting married! Mom has always been worried that you will end up alone!" His face was filled with a joyful smile, as if he was happier than getting married himself.
Luo Lingyue kicked Luo Lingfeng's calf hard under the table and muttered to herself: This guy really doesn't know how to talk, he'd better shut up!
The kick was not light. Luo Lingfeng's face turned pale instantly. The pain made him grit his teeth.
Luo Lingfeng glanced at Luo Lingyue silently. Although he felt somewhat dissatisfied, he did not dare to say anything more... After all, he knew that if he continued to pester her, he might suffer even more severe punishment.
Seeing this, Luo Lingliu couldn't help but feel suspicious. She frowned, stared at the two people sharply, and asked suspiciously: "Why do I always feel that there is something wrong with you two? Are you guys teaming up to trick me?"
Hearing this, Luo Lingyue's heart tightened. She quickly put away the keys and tokens, put on a smile on her face, pretended nothing had happened and said: "Oh, second brother is getting married tomorrow! You should hurry up and prepare well! Don't forget to carefully select a wedding gift for second sister-in-law! Come on, go!" As she spoke, she pushed Luo Lingliu, trying to change the subject.
After hearing this, Luo Lingliu stood up quickly as if she had been electrocuted, and then strode towards the door without hesitation.
Luo Lingyue shouted loudly behind him: "Second brother! Do you want me to ask Sixth brother to get you some tonic medicine? This will help you have children and branches soon!"
At this moment, Luo Lingliu just walked to the steps at the door. When he heard Luo Lingyue's words, his body shook violently, as if he was hit by an invisible force. Due to distraction, his foot suddenly tripped on the threshold, and the whole person lost balance and fell forward...
