He was such a cunning person. No wonder Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng misjudged him.
“Husband, what do you think the other party’s goal is?” Li Xiaoran was a little puzzled. “Anyway, it definitely isn’t to be with Xiao Qing!”
Luo Cheng said with certainty, ‘We can try to follow the other party’s train of thought. If he successfully deceived us and we didn’t notice anything, he could have made Xiao Qing fall in love with him. You care so much about Xiao Qing, so even after you found out the truth later on, Xiao Qing would already be deeply in love with him and you would have no choice but to let them be. This way, he would become my brother-in-law and have ties with us!”
“So, he’s targeting us? If he becomes my brother-in-law, he can learn many things about us! Assuming that he was sent by your enemy, our every move might be monitored by the other party. If the other party is a mercenary, he will definitely do things in our name. At that time, we will have to clean up the mess.” Li Xiaoran thought of many possibilities.
Luo Cheng said, “No matter what, Liu Mingkun has ill intentions, so he’ll definitely become a problem for us instead of a helping hand. Not to mention anything else, with his proficiency in womanizing, it won’t be long before he makes many people around him work for him. At that time, we’ll be in a passive position!”
As the saying went, what one was afraid of the most was usually what would happen.
Just as Luo Ziyang appeared in the shop where Li Xiaoqing was, he heard a woman who was eating noodles teasing, “Xiao Qing, I think your savior is also a good-looking person, so why don’t the two of you get married?! Isn’t there a
saying that you should repay your life-saving grace with your life?” Luo Ziyang’s expression darkened when he heard this.
“Madam, you can’t spout nonsense. Young Master Liu has someone he likes and is waiting to get married after he goes back this time. Don’t spout nonsense! If word gets out, how will others think of Miss Li?! Or are you doing this on purpose? Do you have any hatred towards our family? That’s why you came here today to spout nonsense?!”
Li Xiaoqing was already very impatient. Just as she was about to retort, she heard Luo Ziyang’s voice and immediately stood at the side to watch.
It was better for Ziyang to take action than her.
“I just suddenly thought of it. That’s why I said that! Besides, I was just being kind. ”
“Kind? Are you deaf and blind? Our family has long released the news that my sister’s future husband will have to marry into the family. If you have a suitable candidate, ask him if he’s willing to marry into the family,” Luo Ziyang said.
This time, the woman didn’t know what to say.
Which man of high caliber would be willing to marry into his wife’s family?!
Thinking of this, the woman quickly finished her noodles and left dejectedly.
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Mao Dao walked over.
“Brother Yang, something’s fishy about what happened today. I keep feeling that Xiao Qing’s savior isn’t a good person. Do you think he really wants Xiao
Qing to marry him?”
Luo Ziyang shook his head when he heard Mao Dao’s words.
“Don’t worry, he won’t succeed! From today onwards, I’ll follow Xiao Qing. I want to see what other tricks Liu Mingkun has up his sleeve.”
When Old Madam Jin came over and heard what had happened this morning, she also sensed that something was fishy.
Coincidentallv. Luo Zivang was around. so Old Madam Tin asked him.
“He should be repaid for saving Xiao Qing’s life. I wonder what Xiaoran plans to
Luo Ziyang immediately understood what Old Madam Jin meant, so he replied,
“Liu Mingkun asked them to mediate the conflict between Huaiqi Village and
Daxing Village because he and the daughter of the village chief of Daxing Village are in love, but because of the emnity between the two villages, they can’t be together!”
When Old Madam Jin heard this, she immediately understood.
“So, Mr. Luo and Xiaoran are already repaying the favor?”
Luo Ziyang nodded.
“But Liu Mingkun is probably not as simple as he seems! Mediating the conflict between Huaiqi Village and Daxing Village might not be his true motive. Think about it, how can the enmity that spans generations be resolved so easily? If it were that easy, there wouldn’t be so many tragedies in this world!” Old Madam Jin immediately saw through it.
“That’s why we’re certain he has ulterior motives! This person is very scheming! No wonder he tried to create the impression of having an intimate relationship with Xiao Qing this morning. He’s setting a trap for Xiao Qing and waiting for her to fall into it! If I’m not mistaken, I’m afraid he has many other methods to force Xiao Qing to marry him!”
When Luo Ziyang heard Old Madam Jin’s words, the worry in his heart deepened.
Old Madam Jin snorted and said, “Let’s spread the news that Mr. Luo and Xiaoran have returned Xiao Qing’s life-saving grace first! Then, we’ll see what happens next! He’ll eventually be forced to reveal his true intentions!”
“Madam, you’re right. I’ll go make the arrangements now!” Luo Ziyang nodded and went to make the arrangements.
After Luo Cheng heard about Old Madam Jin’s suggestion, he pondered for a moment, but in the end, he suppressed news of this matter.
“This news can’t be spread like this, or else we’ll fall into the other party’s trap!”
Luo Ziyang didn’t understand.
“Think about it. If I spread this news, it will mean that we owe Liu Mingkun a
favor. If I can’t resolve the conflict between the two villages, it means that we still owe Liu Mingkun a favor. At that time, Liu Mingkun can use this favor as an excuse to do many things!”
“Then are we going to let Liu Mingkun extort Xiao Qing with this?” Luo Ziyang was a little anxious.
Luo Cheng looked at Luo Ziyang and reached out to pat his shoulder.
“Ziyang, you’re too paranoid. Do you think Xiaoran and I will let others force Xiao Qing to marry Liu Mingkun? Liu Mingkun doesn’t dare to force her to marry him openly. Didn’t he find others to beat around the bush? So don’t be anxious.. Don’t panic! If you panic, you’ll fall into the other party’s trap!”
