Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 1181 - 705: Probing Deeper

After Wen Su finished talking about what he knew of the Lu Family, Old Master Wen frowned tightly: ”Just... this?”

”Yes.”

”You still have the nerve to answer?” Old Master Wen was so angry he grabbed a book and threw it at Wen Su’s head, ”Is this what you call dating? Huh?”

”I...”

Another book was thrown, ”What do you mean ’I’? Ye’er only met them once and knows more than you do. You’ve been dating for six months, brought her home twice, and this is all you’ve got to tell me?”

Wen Su rubbed his head, not daring to respond. Luo Ye glanced at him, then glanced again, hissing as she drew breath: ”Grandpa, you hit too hard, Second Brother’s got a bump on his head.”

”Serves him right. With him like this, he deserves a bump as big as his head!” Old Master Wen was still fuming as he took a huge sip of tea, glaring fiercely before swallowing it down.

Luo Ye quickly offered her own tea: ”Grandpa, have a cool drink to calm down.”

”No need!”

Luo Ye pushed the teacup further forward: ”Have a sip. If it turns into an ulcer, you’ll remember it was because of Second Brother, and then you’ll occasionally give him a bump on the head. Anyone who doesn’t know might think it was his future sister-in-law who did it, and besides, Second Brother’s such a handsome guy... it’s not good for his image, is it?”

With Luo Ye’s interruption, Old Master Wen’s anger eased a bit. Seeing his grandson with a bulging red bump on his forehead, silent and looking down, he felt a bit sorry, but couldn’t bring himself to show it. He grunted coldly: ”Little Su, it’s not that Grandpa is being unreasonable. When you’re dating a girl, getting to know her family’s situation is a form of care. With you like this, not asking or caring, what do you think the girl feels?”

”Grandpa, I’ve always thought that the ideal love is one that happens naturally and progresses smoothly. As for me and Lu Qingqing, it was mainly because I promised Lu Dongdong to give it a try with her.

But since I wasn’t sure myself, I didn’t want her to get too deeply involved, so I didn’t really ask about her family matters. What I told you just now, I actually learned from chatting with Lu Dongdong.

Today, bringing Lu Qingqing home, I really planned that if Ye’er found even a tiny bit of incompatibility, we’d break up.”

”Pow! Pow!” Two books hit Wen Su on the forehead consecutively, resulting in three perfectly aligned bumps.

Luo Ye quickly moved to the back of Old Master Wen, who was heaving with anger, and started to calm him: ”Grandpa, calm down, take it easy...”

”You little brat, I always thought you were the easy one, but I never expected you to be this heartless. What do you mean give it a try? Hmm? Have you thought about the girl’s reputation?

Just from the way she looks at you, even with my aging eyes, I can see she’s sincere. And yet, you plan to break up after appeasing her brother. Is that what a human does?

You brat, with your actions, if people don’t say you’re immature, they’ll say the Wen Family has bad manners. By then, the entire Wen Family would have to bear the consequences for you. Do you think it’s appropriate?”

”Grandpa, although Qingqing and I have been dating for over six months, at most, we’ve just held hands. I was really careful. Of course, it’s not about caring what others think, but about not wanting to hurt Qingqing.

When Wen Yan wasn’t posted elsewhere, I did everything with him. After he left, the only friend I could really talk to was Lu Dongdong.

You know, most friendships with those from prominent families are about interests, but with Lu Dongdong, I don’t have to worry about saying the wrong thing and getting manipulated.

It’s a very comfortable friendship, the kind of friendship we can’t find within our own circle, so I really cherish it.

Qingqing would always go find Dongdong, and increasingly frequently. Her intentions were clear as day, and I had to play dumb.

Later, Dongdong had a deep talk with me. He said, given my personality, I should look for a simple girl, and his sister was suitable. He hoped I would try and if it was suitable, we’d be together; if not, we’d go back to being ordinary friends.

The way he cares for his sister is so much like Xiao Feng; my heart softened, and I agreed. To be honest, at first, I didn’t feel anything for Qingqing, but it was also hard to reject immediately.

But this time, on the way home with her, I found out she’s really a simple and good girl, very genuine. So, Grandpa, now I really want to be with her properly. What do you think?”
