Luo Ke didn't notice that someone was watching her at all. She sat in the taxi and watched the scenery quickly pass by, and her heart was filled with sorrow. In such a large city, she didn't have a place to stay, nor did she have a trustworthy person.
Not long after, she returned to her house. Taking out her key to open the door, she immediately smelled the fragrance of food. "I'm back," he said. He then walked towards the dining hall naturally.
Luo Ke's virtuous mother made a table full of dishes and stuffed the fish into her bowl. Seeing that Luo Ke was back, she quickly stood up and cordially said, "Luo Ke, why did you suddenly come back? Why didn't you give us a call? You didn't even prepare your food."
Perhaps it was because the light was too warm and the food was too fragrant, but suddenly his eyes felt sore. The adoptive father and his family were having a happy meal, while she was like a guest that suddenly barged in and messed up their lives. For the first time, Luo Ke sensed an indescribable atmosphere between them. It was an emotion that could not be erased by the blood, an emotion that many things could not replace.
However, Luo Ke had never experienced such warmth before. The affection that she originally thought she was was now seen as kinship, or perhaps a form of courteous estrangement. Until now, when he looked at her home, where she did not see herself. She saw his parents and brother sitting together, eating ordinary food. They spoke simple words, but their words were filled with the warmth of a family.
Perhaps this was kinship, Rooke thought. Their kinship.
Seeing that Luo Ke hadn't spoken for a long time, Luo Wei's mother nervously asked, "What's wrong?" Is there something unpleasant going on? "
"No, it's just that I haven't eaten a dish made by my mother for a long time. I really miss it." Luo Yuan said with a funny smile. Only she herself knew how much pain she had felt from what she had just seen. Perhaps love had its victories, but kinship was like the support that accompanied you through the wind and rain. It was a beacon that moved forward in this vast world. It could not replace the unique existence.
"If you want to eat what I've made, then come back and visit us." She took out a new pair of chopsticks from the kitchen and placed them next to Luo Mu.
Luo Ke sat down naturally. She didn't want them to notice her feelings, so she used her chopsticks to pick up an eggplant and put it in her mouth. She smiled and said, "I've been busy lately. I'll come visit you guys more often."
In truth, she didn't know what kind of face to use on them. Even when she knew that she wasn't their biological daughter, Luo Ke wasn't so flustered. Perhaps it was because she was more or less aware of it.
"We are already very happy that you have come back." As she spoke, Luo Wei's mother also picked up a piece of fish from her bowl and kept telling her to eat more.
Luo Ke nodded her head obediently, indicating that she understood. Perhaps it was because the atmosphere at the table was too harmonious, Mr Luo took out a bottle of white wine and told Luo Ke, "It's rare to see everyone here. We must celebrate." As she spoke, she poured herself a large cup.
His mother wanted to stop him, but seeing his attitude, she knew it was useless. She could only shake her head and say to him, "Even if the child is happy, don't drink too much."
"I know, why are you so long-winded." The ill-tempered Father Luo said impatiently.
Hearing him say that, Luo Wei's mother lowered her head and started to eat, talking to Luo Ke and Luo Mu. Her father drank one cup after another. Soon, half a bottle of white wine entered his stomach. Her face also turned completely red. It was obvious that she drank too much.
Luo Wei's mother wanted to say something, but when she thought of what he had just said, she shook her head and did not say anything. However, she didn't say anything. Her father, who had too much to drink, began to talk.
The other party shook the empty wine cup, saying to Luo Ke with a big tongue, "The most correct thing I've done in my life was to bring Luo Ke back. Look at her now, she has a car, a house, and even a good husband."
"Eat more food and talk less." Hearing his words, Luo Wei's mother's expression immediately changed. She put some food into his father's bowl, hoping that he wouldn't mention it again.
However, the drunk man didn't care about her thoughts at all. He slapped the table and excitedly said, "What does a man's words have to do with a stinking woman like you? Are you telling me that you didn't raise her for nothing?!"
"What do you mean by that now? Is it because I don't think this house is messy enough! " Luo Wei's mother put down her chopsticks and angrily said. She had always said that Luo Ke would be treated as her own daughter, so naturally, she didn't want him to know about her background.
Standing at the side, Louver gaped at the scene in front of him. He had never thought that the truth he had been concealing would be exposed in such a manner. Looking at her drunken adoptive father and her embarrassed adoptive mother, she didn't know what to do.
"Keke, I'm not trying to hide it, I just don't know how to tell you." Perhaps it was because of Luo Ke's shocked expression, Luo Wei's mother quickly explained to her.
Luo Ke took a deep breath and said to Luo Wei's mother, "Can you tell me who my biological parents are now?"
Who knew this simple question made Luo Ke's mother feel troubled? She looked at him as if she was about to say something, but she swallowed her words back. Her gaze shifted but no words came out.
The drunk father Luo disdainfully said, "Since she has already asked, you can tell her. In any case, it has already been so many years, so she should know."
However, no one in the room paid any attention to his words. Luo Ke stared into her eyes and said, "At this point, are you still not going to tell me?"
Luo Wei's mother opened her mouth, but no words came out. Her attitude made Luo Ke's heart break. He really didn't understand why his mother didn't tell him. If he kept hiding it like this, then there was no use, couldn't he just say it out loud? Must he maintain a semblance of harmony in order to pretend to be a happy family?
Taking a deep breath, Luo Ke calmed her emotions and slowly spoke to his mother, "If you are unwilling to answer my previous question, then tell me, do you know that Lu Yunqi is the son of his arch enemy who killed his father?"
After she said this, the originally noisy room suddenly quieted down. Everyone looked at Luo Ke with eyes filled with shock, as if they hadn't expected her to ask such a question.
"You only need to tell me whether you know or not. This question is very important to me." Luo Ke had a very serious expression. The answer to this question was very important to her.
