Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption-Chapter 36 Midnight Conversation
Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Midnight Conversation
"Ye’er, with Yuan Yuan’s skills being so formidable, do you think... she might have already guessed who your dad is?" On their way home, Wen Xin asked Luo Ye with a concerned expression.
"Mom, it’s not that magical. Based on the scratched patterns, one could tell that dad’s identity is not simple, but definitely wouldn’t know specifically who it is. Don’t worry, mom!" Holding Dou Dou’s little mouth and imitating Dou Dou’s voice for fun, Luo Ye joked: "Mom doesn’t need to worry, dad won’t scold mom!"
"Are you sure?" Wen Xin was still somewhat uneasy.
"Mom..." Luo Ye said with a smile, wrapping her arm around Wen Xin: "Think about it, you helped connect Yuan Fang with Elder Feng. With Yuan Yuan and Yuan Fang’s relationship, mom is practically their life-saving benefactor.
After revealing the villain, Yuan Yuan was concerned and reminded mom to be careful about the villain, and even narrowed down the range. Just think, with your significance in Yuan Yuan’s eyes, if she knew who the villain was, how could she not tell you, right?"
"Right!" Wen Xin nodded.
"If we can’t be sure who the villain is, naturally we can’t be sure who dad is either. Same logic!" Luo Ye let out a light sigh: "What’s urgent now is, once we get home, to discuss with dad and brother who our family’s villain could be, as it concerns our future!"
"Ye’er is right!" Speaking of which, the mother and daughter hastened their steps.
...
Luo Ye, holding a food bag, stood on the roadside waiting for Luo Feng, her face brimming with a happy smile. Seeing his sister across the street, Luo Feng shouted joyfully: "Ye’er!"
"Brother!" Luo Ye excitedly raised the food bag in her hand: "I managed to buy your favorite seaweed buns."
Luo Feng was about to step forward when a soft voice from a woman behind him said: "Luo Feng, wait for me!"
Luo Feng apologetically smiled and took the woman’s hand. As the woman gave Luo Ye a glance, a sly smile flashed across her face. She forcefully pushed Luo Feng forward, withdrawing her hand, and a car speeding toward the stumbling Luo Feng slammed into him, blood splattering...
"Brother!" Luo Ye screamed and sat up, taking a good while to realize that she was now lying in her own bedroom, the cool moonlight seeping through the gauze window, everything seeming somewhat unreal.
Luo Ye scrambled to turn on the bedside lamp, pinching herself hard several times. She ran to the mirror to take a look, and paced around the room, but couldn’t calm down no matter what.
The woman’s sly smile, the exaggerated wailing, lingered in her ears. She asked the other party why she hurt her brother. The other party said that the accident happened because her brother was in a hurry to see her, and as she cried and struck at her, she was pushed to the ground.
When the passersby gathered around, the woman held Luo Feng and howled in tears. In her accusation, she became the foolish troublemaker responsible for her brother’s death, having never seen such a distortion of truth and justice, she stood there dazedly, forgetting even to cry, allowing others to point and comment.
Scene after scene flashed before her eyes, Luo Ye’s head spun, for a moment unable to distinguish the present from the past. She simply dressed and sneaked to Luo Feng’s bedroom, only when her fingers lightly touched Luo Feng’s warm body did she slowly come to her senses – it was a dream, truly a dream. Her brother was fine, everything was fine!
Happy tears slid down her cheeks. What could be better than regaining what was lost? It must have been the discussion about the villain earlier that night that had touched her soul’s memories, leading to this dream. It had scared her to death!
The discussion that night, at first, dad didn’t believe it. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
After the mother and daughter recounted the examples performed by Yuan Yuan, the father’s face grew grave, fell silent for a while, then went to his study, saying he needed some quiet to sort through his thoughts.
Luo Ye guessed that dad might have a target in mind, which was exactly the effect Luo Ye wanted. She coerced mom into performing the Crystal Meridian Technique, primarily with the intention of issuing a warning to dad.
Meeting Yuan Yuan was an accident, but a huge help to her. Only if dad were to be alert could things be easier to handle in the future. Maybe, with dad’s cooperation, she and her father could join forces – where then could the opponent flee?
This road wouldn’t be completed in just a day or two; she must prepare in advance for the confrontation. She must not fight uncertain battles, nor give the opponent any chance to turn the tables or fight back. A strike must be decisive!
In truth, the situation was better than she had anticipated. Dad was not truly weak and helpless; he was just being blackmailed by the other party out of necessity. One fatal mistake dad made in her past life was underestimating how evil the opponent was.
Whatever leverage the opponent had, she was determined to find out. She firmly believed it was definitely not a financial issue; it was likely an issue of personal relationships.
She would pay attention to this in the future. In her past life, she had been ignorant, causing her to know nothing about many things that had happened.
If she could find the crux of the problem, she could convince her dad to fight back.
Mom also had undergone significant change, not only loving her husband but also indulging her children without principles. This indulgence conveniently facilitated her own actions.
Brother has become a lot tougher than before. After all, he hasn’t had her past life experiences, and change doesn’t happen instantly. She’s patient, letting him become a true man!
"Ye’er, what’s the matter?" Luo Ye just realized, after gently wiping away her tears, that Luo Feng had woken up at some point and was sitting beside her.
"Bro!" Luo Ye cried as she hugged Luo Feng.
"Don’t cry, did Ye’er have a nightmare?" Luo Feng gently patted her, feeling very satisfied inside; his sister hadn’t relied on him like this in a long time.
"Brother, you have to promise me, you absolutely can’t associate with Liang Jing, you can’t like her, can’t be with her, you must promise me!" Luo Ye’s eyes shone with a burning brightness under the moonlight.
"Okay, okay, I promise you," Luo Feng chuckled. "Did Ye’er dream that Liang Jing stole your brother away?"
"I don’t like her!" Luo Ye pouted, her eyes shimmering with tears.
Luo Feng nodded: "Alright, if Ye’er doesn’t like her, then brother won’t like her either!"
"Brother, you must keep your word!" Luo Ye extended her little finger. "Pinky swear!"
Luo Feng rubbed Luo Ye’s head with a laugh: "Still don’t trust your brother?"
Luo Ye continued with her finger extended: "I know, brother never goes back on a pinky promise. That’s why on this matter, I just can’t trust you!"
"You!" After Luo Feng and his sister linked fingers, he looked puzzled. "Ye’er, why do you hate Liang Jing so much? She’s actually quite pitiable..." Seeing Luo Ye’s unkind glance, he hastily waved his hand: "Don’t worry! I always remember what Ye’er told me. She did come to see me when she was going to play with Zhuang Meili, but I had my dorm mates tell her I wasn’t there and didn’t see her!"
"That’s more like it!" Luo Ye let out a contented sigh; she could tell at a glance if her brother was lying.
"After dinner tonight, I contemplated discussing with the family that dad and mom have transferred 90% of Wenxin Garden’s assets to me, which really isn’t quite fair to brother. If brother is unhappy, he can talk to me, and I will persuade dad." But as it turned out, dad made the final decision, depriving Luo Feng of any say.
"Ye’er is thinking too much. Not to mention that you have ninety percent and I have ten, even if it all went to you I wouldn’t mind. Dad is right, in the end, could Ye’er stand to see her brother starve to death?" Luo Feng sat cross-legged. "Ye’er, I’m not as decisive and capable as you, this arrangement is the most rational. Even that ten percent, I feel unworthy!"
Luo Ye pretended to be huffy: "Hmm, when you find a sister-in-law to whisper in your ear, will you then come to me to settle old scores?"
"Silly Ye’er!" Luo Feng laughed as he flicked Luo Ye’s nose. "You little fool!"
Luo Ye nudged Luo Feng’s chin: "Silly brother!"
"Silly Ye’er!"
"Chirp chirp..." Dou Dou, somehow, had also run over to join in the fun.
"What are you doing up in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?" Wen Xin suddenly appeared at the door, looking at the two of them and the bird with a puzzled face.
Luo Ye approached with a giggle and hugged Mom: "Tomorrow is Sunday, I just wanted to chat with brother!"
Wen Xin smiled warmly: "President Luo..."
"I’ll go to sleep right away!" Luo Ye gave Wen Xin a thumbs-up. "Mom, you’re mighty!"
Nu’an’s first watch has arrived, a special thanks to "ぐ戀貓﹏" for the large red envelope, a special thanks to "海---" "nanxinji" for the PK tickets and pink tickets, a special thanks to everyone who recommend Nu’an every day, to those who collect Military Makeup, and to all who support Nu’an, love you guys.
