The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 775: Chapter 775 Luo Qing Chapter 775: Chapter 775 Luo Qing Shu Yu wanted to give the second-in-charge some money, but the latter refused to accept it.

But Shu Yu couldn’t let someone toil in vain–although it was a matter of convenience, it still required someone to make a special trip to Jiangyuan County.

There weren’t many local specialties, but the amount wasn’t small either; it took two sacks to pack them all.

It was a time-consuming and laborious task for the other party, so some compensation for travel expenses was definitely due.

The second-in-charge had no choice but to accept a modest amount begrudgingly, and with that, both parties were satisfied.

After the matters were settled, the two planned to leave. Huifeng Escort Agency was quite busy as New Year’s was approaching, and their business seemed even better, especially the short-haul escort services.

Just during their short conversation, two or three customers arrived, and the second-in-charge had others entertain them.

Lu Erbai mentioned that there was a family matter to attend to, and he took Shu Yu to bid farewell.

However, as soon as they reached the doorway, they saw a young man approaching from afar, hastening to them excitedly, “Uncle Lu, I heard you were here, you…”

He turned to look at Shu Yu, paused for a moment, and the smile on his face suddenly flashed with a tinge of regret.

Shu Yu narrowed her eyes, puzzled. Seeing her, what was there to regret?

Lu Erbai smiled, “Luo Qing, you’re back? We have things to take care of at home and will be leaving now.”

“Ah? Well, let me see you off,” the young man called Luo Qing, after another glance at Shu Yu, seemed even more disappointed.

Shu Yu, “…”, felt somewhat rejected.

Internally scoffing, she listened to Lu Erbai chat with Luo Qing as they quickly made their way to the entrance.

Luo Qing wanted to escort Lu Erbai home, but the latter declined.

Shu Yu felt something was off. Luo Qing seemed eager to please, while Lu Erbai was deliberately keeping his distance, speaking politely without making introductions.

Thus, only after they were far from the Huifeng Escort Agency did she ask quietly, “Father, what’s with this Luo Qing?”

Lu Erbai rubbed his temple and sighed softly, “Him? He’s the son of Head Escort Luo of the Huifeng Escort Agency. He, well, wants to form a marriage alliance with our family.”

Another marriage proposal??

Shu Yu didn’t realize her family was in such demand.

Wait a minute, if it wasn’t about her, then it must be…

Thinking of the disappointed look in Luo Qing’s eyes when he saw her, Shu Yu asked softly, “Does he want to marry my sister?”

“Yes,” Lu Erbai nodded, “He was so thrilled just now, certainly because he heard I brought my daughter with me. He probably thought I brought Daya.”

“You don’t fancy the idea, Father? Is Luo Qing not good?”

“It’s not that he’s not good. Luo Qing is actually quite decent, kind-hearted, and skilled in martial arts.” At least much better than that despicable Zhang Shu, “But his roots are here. Once you hand over the heating pack, you won’t have to go into exile any longer. When the time comes, our whole family will return. If Daya marries Luo Qing, she would then have to stay here alone.”

Before, when the Zhang family lived so close, Daya was bullied, and they were powerless to help unless she spoke up.

If she married into a family in Heichang County, thousands of miles away from her hometown, even if she met with misfortune, the news might never reach home.

Huifeng Escort Agency might seem prosperous now, but no one can guarantee it will stay that way. Okay as Luo Qing may seem now, who knows if he might change his heart in the future.

If Daya stays here, she would truly have no one to rely on. How could they bear that?

Of course, this is only one of the reasons. There is another reason, and that has to do with Luo Qing’s mother.
