“Oh, Qin Chen might be the man she loves.” Luo Li suddenly remembered something just after she answered her grandmother"s query. Her small face appeared shocked. “No, she mentioned that the man"s mother is alive. But, Qin Chen is only an adopted son. It"s not related to what she has said.”

 “If that"s the case, it would be better. Qin Chen… is not suitable for Young Lady Xiao Qing.”

 “Why?” Luo Li seemed shocked. “Didn"t you have a good impression on Qin Chen?”

 “Xiao Li"er, there are a lot of things in the Qin family. You won"t understand. The Qin family is just like a deep tiger"s den to her unless Qin Chen leaves the Qin family for good. Although I have thought about arranging a marriage for the two of you, what I had in mind was that Qin Chen would leave the Qin family and come to be a part of the Luo family. It"s because you"re the only heiress of the Qin family and he could avoid being harmed by those people from the Qin family if he joins our family.”

 The old lady laughed bitterly. “But, it is different for Young Lady Xiao Qing… unless Qin Chen leaves the Qin family. Otherwise, it will be a total disaster if she marries Qin Chen. She"s so nice and beautiful. Surely, I"m unwilling to see her endure all those sufferings.”

 “But… our Luo family is not bad too. Are we unable to protect her?” Luo Li pursed her lips, tightly.

 The old lady glanced at Luo Li meaningfully. “If your grandfather were still alive and healthy; if I was still powerful, if your father is not being charmed by that vixen, all things would have been possible. But, how can we protect her given our state now?”

 Luo Fei was the most powerful person in the entire Luo family.

 However, Luo Fei had fallen for Qin Xiaoyue.

 ‘Now, Luo Fei could oppose me for Qin Xiaoyue"s sake. It"s impossible that he would bother himself with that!"

 However, Luo Li was different.

 Luo Li was still Luo Fei"s daughter no matter what. If she was bullied by her parents-in-law, surely Luo Fei would not be quiet about it. So, the people from the Qin family would not bully her so much.

 It was what the old lady had in mind.

 ‘Luckily, the person Young Lady Xiao Qing loves might not be Qin Chen. If that"s the case, I"m relieved.”

 “Grandmother.” Luo Li pursed her lips tightly. “Even if the man Xiao Qing loves is not Qin Chen, we can do nothing if the Qin family prohibits Qin Chen from getting in touch with Xiao Qing.”

 Feng Ruqing had helped Luo Li for quite a few times now. Luo Li wanted to return the favor, too, this time.

 Old Lady Luo stopped in her path and laughed bitterly. “We owe Young Lady Xiao Qing for saving my life. Surely I"ll not leave her behind. We"ll see how things are in the future. It"s the best if we could kick Qin Xiaoyue out of the Luo family. If she"s not there to instigate Luo Fei to do bad things, Luo Fei would never be unfilial toward me.”

 Luo Fei breathed a sigh of relief softly.

 If her grandmother was on her side, everything was possible.

 Otherwise, they would just have to cause a really bad scene and use threaten him into obedience with their lives. If he still could not care less about them, he would be infamous for indirectly causing the death of his mother and daughter.

 ‘We"ll see how he will react."

 At the Qin family.

 In the manor.

 It was peaceful and quiet.

 A young man stood next to the lake with a hand behind his back. His silhouette seemed tall. It was a thin and lean figure.

 It seemed that his handsome face was covered with layers of frost. He appeared so cold and distant.

 But, he had a pair of eyes that were crystal clear.

 They were even purer than the water in the lake. They were just like the pure sky.

 “Chen"er.”

 A soft voice was heard from behind him.

 The young man subconsciously hid the hairpin in his sleeves.

 He did not turn around to face the person who had spoken to him. He did not even turn his head.

 Qin Fei"er stood behind Qin Chen. There was a helpless smile on her beautiful and gentle face.

 Although Qin Chen was cold and distant just like before, he would at least have given her some kind of response before this.
