Princess Xiangrui in Huanzhu

Chapter 359

Father Luo looked at Luo Rou suspiciously, whose expression was a little unnatural. Now he completely distrusted Luo Rou.

She could even tell such a huge lie without batting an eyelid or a heartbeat. There was nothing Luo Rou wouldn't dare to do.

Luo Rou avoided Luo's father's inquiring gaze.

Father Luo's heart sank suddenly. At this point, Luo Rou dared to conceal the truth and make excuses.

"Is that person Luo Yu?" Luo's father asked tentatively. His voice was as calm as a pool of lake water, but it made Luo Rou's heart sink instantly.

Luo Rou's eyes suddenly shrank, and she tried to hide her inner panic with calmness. However, her slightly trembling lips and flickering eyes betrayed her true emotions. Although she tried hard to stay calm, the uneasiness in her heart became stronger.

Father Luo's eyes were like those of a sharp hawk, staring at Luo Rou closely, as if he wanted to see the secrets deep in her heart through her eyes.

He keenly noticed Luo Rou's strangeness, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He said coldly: "You are smart, but be careful that your cleverness may backfire."

Luo Rou is a little clever, but she doesn't use these clever tricks in the right way. The key is to do it, and it will be very stupid if you are caught.

For Luo's father, there is no difference between the girl saved by Luo Yu and the girl saved by Luo Rou. They are both his daughters, and he will be the only one who benefits.

But he didn't expect Luo Rou to be so bold as to turn this good situation into the current embarrassing one.

Stupid, really stupid!

Father Luo looked at Luo Rou with disdain, who was more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything. That look made Luo Rou feel uneasy.

Luo Rou took a deep breath and said calmly, "Father, what do you mean? I don't understand." Her voice trembled a little, but she tried to make herself look calm.

A trace of disappointment flashed across Luo's father's eyes. He shook his head slowly and sighed, "Luo Rou, do you think I can't see it? When you heard the name 'Luo Yu' just now, the panic in your eyes could not be hidden from my eyes. You'd better tell me the truth!"

Luo Rou bit her lip, her face pale as paper. She knew there was no point in hiding it any longer, so she lowered her head and said softly, "Yes, father...that person is Luo Yu." After saying this, she felt as if all her strength had been drained away, and her whole body was limp.

It's over, it's all over! Luo Rou collapsed to the ground in despair, her face looking like she had lost her parents.

"If you can't ask for the prince's forgiveness for this matter, I will expel you from the Luo family." Luo's father's cold and ruthless words echoed throughout the room.

Her face was as pale as paper, as if she had lost all her vitality and energy. Her eyes were empty and lifeless, as if her soul had been taken away. She murmured to herself, "How could this happen? How could this happen..."

Luo Rou looked at Luo's father in disbelief. She knew she would be punished, but she didn't expect Luo's father to show no mercy at all.

She was obviously his biological daughter, so why did he treat her so harshly? Luo Rou clenched her fists tightly, her heart filled with resentment and anger.

Should a concubine's daughter die? Should a concubine's daughter not be allowed to make mistakes? Luo Rou's eyes became more and more fierce. She couldn't understand why she was treated so unfairly. She felt that she had paid too much, but got nothing in return.

At this moment, a thought suddenly appeared in Luo Rou's mind: "What about Luo Yu? If she did something like this, would Luo's father help her?"

Thinking of this, Luo Rou felt a strong sense of jealousy. She couldn't accept the fact that she was being ignored, and she felt that she was the one who deserved her father's love the most.

Luo Rou thought about this possibility frantically in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more ironic it became. She took such a big risk, but ended up like this. She was obviously thinking about the entire Luo family. She felt that everything she did was worth it, but reality dealt her a heavy blow.

However, Luo Rou did not realize that the credit did not belong to her. She had tried her best to get what she wanted, but it did not belong to her.

She is just a thief who stole the fruits of others' labor and tried to take them for herself. Now that she has been exposed, she not only does not reflect on her own behavior, but blames others for not being tolerant enough. This idea is simply ridiculous!

Father Luo ignored Luo Rou. He was now thinking about how to use Luo Yu to gain the prince's forgiveness. Even if Luo Rou did something wrong, it was also a member of the Luo family who saved him.

Thinking of this, Father Luo no longer cared about Luo Rou, who was lying on the ground in loss. He had more important things to do.

I didn't see Luo Rou's hateful look at all...

"Keep an eye on your young lady. If you let her leave this room, you will be held accountable!"

The maid turned pale with fright and quickly knelt down to answer.

"Luo Rou, please reflect on yourself here. You don't need to mention the Xu family's marriage anymore."

Luo Rou widened her eyes. She had only heard Luo's father mention the matter of the third son of the Xu family briefly, and it was most likely not her, but Luo Yu.

She said this to Yongjing just to gain sympathy, how could her words come true?

Even in dreams it was just a rumor.

Luo Rou was so frightened that she broke out in a cold sweat and kneeled down and rushed to the door.

"No! Father! Rou'er knows she was wrong! Rou'er knows she was wrong! I don't want to marry Mr. Xu San!"

Luo Rou was really frightened this time. Her whole body was shaking, as if she was going to collapse in the next second.

She could never have imagined that she would be betrothed to the infamous Mr. Xu San!

This was simply a nightmare. If she really married him, her life would be ruined!

Logically speaking, as the eldest son of the Xu family, the Third Master Xu had a noble status and a high position, so it should be more than enough for him to marry a woman like Luo Rou. It could even be said that Luo Rou was marrying up to the Xu family. However, the Third Master Xu's reputation was too bad to be ignored.

He often lingered in prostitutes, had affairs with all kinds of women, and was a playboy. What was even more frightening was that he was said to have contracted a dirty disease that was shameful to be seen. Who would be willing to marry their daughter to such a man? Even if he had a prominent family background, it was difficult to cover up his bad character and bad reputation.

Which lady from a noble family would be willing to marry him?

But Father Luo was willing. As long as it could bring him benefits, he would be willing to give up Luo Rou, not to mention Luo Zhan.

Luo Zhan: ...Are you polite?

Originally, the matter of the third son of the Xu family was still under consideration, but now it seems that it is not impossible.

After all, Luo Yu is his legitimate daughter, and it is not a good thing for her to marry such a notorious playboy.

But Luo Rou did not have such concerns. At best, she was just a concubine's daughter with little influence.
