Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 43: Chapter 43 Teasing (1200PK Additional Update)

”Mom, I’ll go open the door.” Upon hearing knocking sounds, Luo Ye quickly got up, but was stopped by Wen Xin: ”Ye’er, let me go! If she acts out, stay away. You mustn’t let yourself be at a disadvantage, understand?”

Luo Ye pushed Wen Xin to sit on the sofa: ”Mom, I’ll go. Would she dare to hit as soon as she enters? After all, dad’s position is at stake!”

In fact, Luo Ye was actually afraid that Xiang Xiaohua would start a dispute as soon as she entered and hurt Wen Xin, as her mother was only capable of taking hits when faced with such women.

Wen Xin couldn’t outpace her daughter and was also worried about her daughter being at a disadvantage, so she followed behind Luo Ye. However, when they opened the door, standing outside wasn’t the corpulent Granny Xiang they imagined, but the handsome young man – Song Fang Zheng’s son, Song Meng.

”Hello Auntie, I heard my dad is at your house?” Song Meng, looking puzzled at Luo Ye and Wen Xin standing by the door and especially at the still visible wariness on Wen Xin’s face, wondered, ”Is the courtyard not safe enough?”

Regaining her composure, Wen Xin quickly smiled and said: ”Song Meng, your dad is here, come in quickly. Ye’er, why didn’t you greet your brother?”

”Hello, Brother Song!” Luo Ye mainly wasn’t used to calling outsiders as ’brother’ and had hesitated due to certain special reasons.

”Ye’er, you’ve become more and more beautiful. I didn’t dare call out to you just now, afraid that I might have gotten it wrong!” After coming back home, Luo Ye had done up her hair, and Song Meng, seeing this, couldn’t help but be stunned – the usually unkempt girl had turned out to be so elegantly beautiful.

Luo Ye politely smiled: ”Brother Song, you flatter me!”

”It’s not flattery, just the truth!” Song Meng said, turning to Wen Xin: ”Auntie, my grandparents suddenly came to our house, I was just at the playground looking for my dad when I happened to meet Mr. Liu, who told me my dad came to your place.”

”Sit for a bit, Song Meng, I’ll quickly go inform Chief Song.” Wen Xin, reluctant to interrupt her husband’s conversation with someone he was getting along with, realized there was no help for it since his parents had arrived.

”Brother Song, there’s no rush, probably Uncle Song and my dad still have some issues to discuss, and will be out soon!” Luo Ye saw Song Meng constantly checking the time and reassured him with a smile.

”Luo Ye, could you please let my dad know, I must be going!” Song Meng stood up and smiled apologetically: ”I have arranged to meet someone at the entrance, I’m worried they can’t wait if I’m late.”

Luo Ye nodded: ”Sure, I will explain to Uncle Song!”

Watching Song Meng’s rapidly disappearing figure, Luo Ye sighed lightly. If she hadn’t remembered, what would have happened? Even if not for her father, she wouldn’t just stand by idly.

Sometimes, things in the world just happen to coincide, or rather, coincidences are everywhere!

...

”Ha ha ha...”

Watching the mother and daughter laughing and hugging each other, Luo Zhenggang looked helpless, and even more so faced with his son standing by the side with a chattering grin.

After Song Fang Zheng left, just when everyone thought Xiang Xiaohua might not come, there she was at the Luo Family’s door, not only not making a scene but looking tearfully weak.

Not only was Wen Xin shocked by Xiang Xiaohua, but Luo Ye also suspected whether she was possessed by something. Such an expression appearing on the face of a shrew was truly bizarre!

Just when the mother and daughter were pondering their words to prepare their opening remarks, Xiang Xiaohua started bawling and crying inconsolably, lamenting her grievances and hardships.

Mother and daughter strained their ears and finally understood that Wang Wei was seriously injured. Xiang Xiaohua quickly called for an ambulance and sent her son to the hospital, where his dad was now with him. She rushed back to seek help, with the main idea being to have Luo Ye become her daughter-in-law and assist in taking care of her son at this moment. Ridiculous!

Luo Ye’s tears also came quickly. When playing fragile, her small frame could look a thousand times more delicate than Xiang Xiaohua, and she exaggerated the situation with sobs and tears.

Especially highlighting the fact that Wang Wei nearly stamped on her brother’s head three times, and emphasizing five times that Wang Wei tried to take liberties with her, her main point was that her brother’s injuries were even more severe but, to save face for both parties, he was enduring the pain at home rather than going to the hospital, and she, on the other hand, could not accept a licentious rascal.

Afraid of not being believed, she exerted all her strength, crying and pulling Granny Xiang to Luo Feng’s bedroom. Xiang Xiaohua paused noticeably when they could hear Luo Feng’s painful groans from outside the door. Upon seeing Luo Feng’s terrifying appearance, she immediately slipped away.

Upon leaving, Xiang Xiaohua was extremely upset, regretting orchestrating everything — indeed, it was a case of ’stealing chickens without losing rice’.

She had designed all this today because she felt the recent atmosphere was not right, and wanted to use this to arrange a marriage. Although she did not think highly of Luo Zhenggang’s position, time was pressing; she decided beggars can’t be choosers, but unfortunately, it did not work out.

If Luo Ye heard Xiang Xiaohua’s inner thoughts, she might have exploded in anger again. Miaow miaow, considering that dead dandy, choosing her is still called beggars can’t be choosers?

When Luo Zhenggang came out, Xiang Xiaohua had already gone. He just saw his wife and daughter hugging and laughing wildly, with his son goofing around beside them. It took him a great deal of effort to understand what had happened.

He originally wanted to scold them, but looking at their crazily happy expressions and genuinely joyful smiles, he swallowed his words. Well, today’s incident really wasn’t the siblings’ fault.

...

The clock pointed to two o’clock in the morning. Luo Ye suddenly opened her eyes, held her breath, and cautiously slipped down to the study. Her dad’s forced cheerful demeanor when he came back from work did not fool her. When Mom asked him what gift to bring, his heart wasn’t in it, everything seemed extremely wrong.

From her memory, the project proposal should be around this time, but finalizing it would still take half a year. She guessed her dad was worried about this matter. Observing today, his briefcase was unusually bulging, likely filled with documents. Perhaps she could find the information she was looking for.

Treading lightly, she made her way to the study door, listened at it for a while, and then confidently used a wire to pick the lock.

Carefully closing the door behind her, she flashed a small flashlight around the room, quickly found the briefcase on the left cabinet, took it down and opened it. However, it was empty.

She was very sure of her judgment; her dad dared not keep it in the briefcase, which meant those documents were indeed very important. Luo Ye’s heart began to pound wildly.

After calming her breathing, Luo Ye started to examine her dad’s cabinets and drawers, seeking the swiftest way to find where the important documents were stored.

Unfortunately, she had not paid much attention to her dad’s habits in her previous life, so she really didn’t know where he kept his documents. She decided to start from the drawers.

After searching through all the drawers on the desk without finding any valuable clues, just as Luo Ye was about to switch to another spot, slight footsteps sounded outside the door. Her heart clenched, and she quickly hid behind the bookcase. Fortunately, because she was slim, the gap just managed to fit her without being noticed.

The door lock clicked softly, and the wall lamp was turned on. The light footsteps headed towards the desk. Luo Ye cautiously moved her head between the gap of two cabinets, and sure enough, it was her dad, sitting in the chair, resting his chin in his hand, lost in thought.
