Chapters 153-154 Departure and New Beginnings

  Chapter 153-154 Departure/New Beginning On Sunday morning, everyone gathered at Ye Qi's villa. Luo Feng and Fu Mo were in charge of cutting the meat, while Luo Ye took the girls and Dongdong to pick vegetables in the garden. Old Master Luo and Ye Qi sat on a mat drinking tea and chatting, while Li Shu accompanied Sang Qingqing for a stroll in the courtyard. Sang Qingqing's wound had healed, but to prevent internal adhesion, she needed to take a 40-minute walk after breakfast and dinner.

  The rare lively scene in the courtyard, excited Da Bai and Da Huang to jump for joy, if not stopped by Ye Qi Shu, they would have been playing in the courtyard long ago.

  It was almost half past eight when Qu Yue finally arrived with two young men.

  "It's finally here" Luo Feng let out a sigh of relief, waving his hand: "Qu Yue, over here?"

  "Finally going to be liberated" Fu Mo also let out a long sigh, this job, isn't it inhumane?

  "Hello, uncle! Hello, sister!" Qu Yue greeted them politely as he walked over. The two men behind him glanced at Luo Feng and Fu Mo's muscular physiques, their facial muscles twitching suspiciously, before politely inviting the pair to take a rest.

  Qu Yue hastily explained with a smile: "They do this every day and have practiced their speed, they don't like others to help, don't take it to heart."

  "What's going to go into the heart, it's too hard to cut, we're worried that you won't bring professional people, don't know what time can eat." Luo Feng raised his oily paws: "Really afraid of cutting flowers and putting these two in as well?"

  "Brother, have you been dumped?" Luo Ye and the others happened to come back with the vegetables they had just picked, and as soon as they saw this scene, they understood what was going on.

  After exchanging greetings, Qu Yue took over the small baskets carried by several people and put them next to the chopping board: "Give them all the dishes, how can they collect them with experience."

  "Even Ye Er was despised." Luo Feng smiled and patted his sister's head, adding insult to injury.

  "I didn't mean it that way, mainly because..."

  Luo Ye interrupted Qu Yue's bitter smile and explanation: "Brother Qu, we understand what you mean. He's just trying to balance himself out, no need to bother with him."

  The lively atmosphere couldn't hide the faint sadness that Tang Luo was about to leave, even Xing Nong, who usually liked to tease Tang Luo, became unusually quiet and gentle.

  Luofeng didn't tell Qu Yue the reason for organizing the barbecue, and Qu Yue was very clear about his little thoughts towards his sister. Although he wasn't disgusted with Qu Yue, and even felt better towards him than towards Ye Xuan, but when it came to testing Luofeng's little weakness, he was more than happy to do so. Was his precious little sister someone who could be easily taken advantage of?

  Unfortunately, someone's plan to make Qu Yue lose face in front of her sister was soon ruined. Qu Yue's sharp eyes quickly figured out the truth and she occasionally shared some interesting gossip from school, which quickly lifted the oppressive atmosphere. As for trying to curry favor with Miss Xiang Luo, that didn't happen at all.

  To the point that Luo Feng secretly suspected whether he was being petty-minded, but in fact Qu Yue was just doing good deeds like Lei Feng. Do you believe it?

  Until Qu Yue changed the subject to Liang You chain, and successfully aroused everyone's interest, later actually with Luo Ye Fu Mo talked about jointly building a landmark catering culture in Island City, Luo Ye invested 200 million yuan, accounting for 15% of Liang You's shares, Fu Mo invested 100 million yuan, accounting for 7.5% of Liang You's shares, when Luo Feng suddenly realized, I've invited the wolf into my home!

  But Liang You's achievements indeed made him admire, the Liang You food chain was actually an idea he had in high school, and he convinced his family to invest 5 million yuan, the subsequent funding and operation methods were all handled by himself, developing to today, the Liang You chain is worth over 100 million yuan. It's said that he and Qu Yue attended the same school, and he was very clear about the time and energy he spent on the student union, could it be that he's a superman?

  After waiting for several people to finalize the deal, Tang Luo let out a slightly regretful sigh: "Unfortunately, I have to leave now. Otherwise, I would really like to participate in it."

  Seeing the atmosphere was about to become sentimental, Luo Ye hurriedly comforted: "We'll have opportunities in the future, we must strive to become a national chain, and when that time comes, Tang Tang will come to support us again."

  "We just had dinner at a small store of Liangyou chain yesterday, and unexpectedly met the boss today. Then, in the blink of an eye, Luolo and Fumeng became shareholders... This thing... Tsk tsk...". Seeing Xingyun's eyes rolling around, Luoye quickly pulled her aside: "Are you planning to tell Qu Yuedong about that store, and let him do something?"

  "Does he know me? Luo Luo does, this also counts as hitting him with a blunt instrument, right?" Xing Dong's face showed a little excitement.

  "Fu Mo brought this up yesterday, but I rejected it. Because Li Shuo told me that although she hasn't returned to her hometown in over two years, the Yin family has been keeping an eye on her household all along, which means as soon as she goes back, the Yin family will quickly find out."

  As for the relationship between Li Jie and Yin Dejiu, it's not as bad as we imagined. The breakdown of their marriage was also due to Li Jie's strong personality. Moreover, from what Li Jie said, it can be inferred that she still has feelings for Yin Dejiu.

  Think about Dongdong's performance yesterday. If we don't get their approval and bring down Yin Dejiu, do you think they will be happy?

  But if we ask for their opinions, the outcome is also predictable. In the end, it's just a matter of letting them cry and be heartbroken, and then we'll just drop the matter, right?

  "Let him off like that?" Xing Dong's mouth curled up.

  "It's not about letting go, Auntie Li and Dongdong's household registration must be handled by her in person when she returns home. Therefore, meeting the Yin family is inevitable. If the Yin family does something too extreme at that time, Auntie Li can truly put it down from the bottom of her heart. On the other hand, if they behave reasonably, we don't need to follow suit and be malicious, right?"

  "I still think it's cheaper with that man"

  "It won't be cheap for him, good friends Lianlian and Fu Mo are also involved, I believe that like Yin Dejiu, there are other stores that joined through connections, and rectification is necessary, to convince people with reason, understand?"

  Yin

  "Who's talking about me behind my back? I'll beat you to death!"

  "Lolo, why don't you let Qu Yue know?" Xing Nu said with a sly smile: "Is it because you're afraid that if he knows, he'll do unprincipled things for someone's sake, and that someone doesn't want to owe anyone a favor?"

  "This isn't a glorious thing either, we need to consider Li Jie and Dongdong's feelings, don't always take charge of things for others, Dongdong going to school and their household registration are to help them settle down, apart from that, we can't do too much charity, understand?"

  "Got it, go quickly, but don't let Tiantian and Yueluo find out." Xingnong was not a fool to begin with, and Luo Ye understood him at once.

  "On the way here, I told them, how could you possibly keep him occupied for such a long time?"

  "I'm always the last to know, with a biased perspective"

  Lu Ye rolled her eyes: "You said you didn't want us to pick you up, now you still have the nerve to say I'm being biased? Don't think I don't know what's on your mind, isn't it just that you want to take advantage of the public transportation and get a free ride?"

  "Good intentions aren't rewarded, I was trying to help everyone save time and also save you on gas, next time I'll definitely let you pick me up."

  As the two of them were whispering to each other on their way back, there were already two empty plates on the table that had been used for roasting meat. Qu Yue happened to bring another plate over and was originally going to place it in front of Fu Mo and Luo Feng, but the plate made a curve and landed in front of Luo Ye Xing: "Try the flavor, how is it?"

  Ying Nu "heh heh" laughed: "Why don't you ask me and Tang Tang how it tastes?" This girl always teased her, today she finally got the chance.

  Qu Yue gave a serious and proper response: "Just now I didn't even have time to ask, the plate was already empty, so I thought it wasn't necessary to ask."

  "That can only represent our hunger, and has nothing to do with the taste."

  Qu Yue: "......"?

  ……?

  Tang Luo left the island city with Xiao Yi on a plane that night, and the transfer procedures were naturally handled by the Tang family. No one was notified when they left, but everyone received a call from her saying she had arrived safely early the next morning before school started.

  When the head teacher announced the news of Tang Luo's transfer, Wang Pei Rong was naturally the happiest. She had originally given up, but now felt that the opportunity was beckoning to her again, and her smile immediately burst out in full bloom. Yang Xing gave her a cold glance before she restrained herself somewhat.

  Xing Lang automatically and consciously sat together with Luo Ye early in the morning, swept her a glance, pretending to see nothing, this guy was beautiful for a whole class, his mouth didn't close.

  After class, however, she couldn't laugh anymore. She lay on the table, staring at Luo Ye: "When Tang Tang was here, I thought her mouth was poisonous, but now that she's really gone, it's actually quite boring."

  "Luoye, I want to sit in Xingtong's position, is that okay?" asked Little Trumpet Pan Fang, leaning over.

  "Don't ask me, go tell our class teacher, she's the one who arranged the seats."

  "Good" Pan Fang quickly ran out and moved to the front of Luo Ye and Tang Luo before class, Tang Qingming gloomily glanced at her: "When sitting at the same table as me in class, you're not allowed to talk, I'm not talking to you."

  "You think I'm eager to talk to you? You're really self-righteous." Pan Fang curled her lips: "If it weren't for wanting to get closer to Luo Ye and Xing, I wouldn't sit at the same table as you."

  "That's good"

  "Lolo......" Xing Nong Cou Luo Ye's ear: "This is the first time I've heard Tang Qingming say so many words in a short period of time since I came to this class, the situation is subtle."

  Lu Ye looked at Xing Nong and said, "The potential of Ba Gua is contagious, have you been assimilated by Pan Fang quickly?"

  "What, what was assimilated by me?" Pan Fang turned her head, her eyes rolling around, mysteriously waving at the two of them, and then leaned in closer, her voice lowered: "I'll tell you the latest news, Wang Feng and Wan Xinxin are dating, I saw them yesterday at Longshan Underground Shopping Mall, hand in hand, so intimate!"

  Xing Nong Research looked at Pan Fang: "You really have the potential to be a paparazzo, why do you always encounter such things?"

  "Who says it isn't, I just happened to run into them, but I'm a very moral person. First of all, I didn't reveal myself at the time and let them see me. Secondly, I only told you two about this matter, which can't be spread around randomly, I have my reasons."

  "You must remember what you said, they are doing well and there are still a few months until the college entrance exam, don't cause trouble for others and make them resent you for life." Xing Nong reminded again with concern, just as the math teacher walked in on time with the bell ringing, Pan Fang hastily nodded her head back.

  ……?

  It was Sang Qingqing's first follow-up examination that day, and Luo Ye rushed to her master's villa after school. Although the other party had called her to say that everything was fine, she still felt a little uneasy and wanted to see the test results with her own eyes.

  As soon as she entered the courtyard, she heard bursts of laughter coming from inside. She quickened her pace and went in. Ye Qi, Sang Qingqing, Li Shu and Dongdong were all in the hall. When they saw her come in, Sang Qingqing laughed and said: "Ye Er, you're late, you missed the live version."

  Dongdong quickly ran over and grabbed her hand: "Guess what happened just now, Ye Jie?"

  "Miss Luo, you are truly a great benefactor to our mother and son." Li's wife lowered her head and wiped the corner of her eyes.

  "What's going on here?" Luo Ye looked puzzled, no matter how smart she was, this inexplicable thing couldn't be guessed.

  "Yexie jiejie, do you still remember that little girl who scolded me that day?"

  Lu Ye nodded: "Remember, your classmate was bullied by Xing and cried. How did you two meet today? No way, you transferred schools... I guessed it?"

  The little girl said that she would report to her aunt and fire Dongdong. Is it that her aunt is Dongdong's original teacher, wanting to deal with Dongdong? As a result, they found out that Dongdong didn't go to school, so they called over, guessing right or not?

  Dongdong's face was full of admiration: "Yeer sister, you're really clever, you guessed it all correctly!"

  "This isn't because I'm clever, it's just the way things are. But since you're all laughing so happily, shouldn't there be something even more interesting?"

  Cang Qingqing couldn't help but laugh again, "Li Shu also has a lot of meaning, the other party called to inform Dongdong about his situation for half a day, and she kept saying, 'I will make him change'."

  The teacher finally said: 'In view of Ju Dongdong's poor performance, we collectively studied and decided that he is not suitable to stay in this class. Please forgive him.'

  Mrs. Li also told people with embarrassment, "Ji Dongdong has been transferred to the local-born class of Taiping Road Primary School. I was thinking of calling you, but this way we saved on phone bills, thank you so much! Please imagine what happened next yourself."

  "Poof" Luo Ye also burst out laughing, never expecting that Li Shu would have such a dark belly at times.

  Actually, the performance at the celebration would have just passed like that if it hadn't been broadcast on city TV. But since the celebration gala was broadcast during prime time on city TV, and after being stirred up by the kids, the family couldn't help but feel resentful.

  The parents of the little girl who was originally forced to stay at home by her grandfather must be annoyed too. The municipal party secretary attended in person, and the TV station broadcast it live. Such an opportunity is not something that can be grasped just because one wants to.

  As for the little girl's aunt daring to expel Dongdong because of this matter, it is easy to explain. If there are really connections at home, will they be promoted to a higher class? Tell them, the school still believes in teachers more.

  "By the way, I've also developed the photos." Luo Ye took out the photos from her backpack and handed them to Li Shu: "Take a look at this pretty little girl, can you still recognize who she is?"

  Mrs. Li's hands were shaking with excitement, and Luo Ye quickly said: "Auntie Li, Dongdong also helped my brother, don't be polite to me, if anyone should thank you, it should be my brother for giving birth to such a handsome, lovely and smart son."

  "Yè ér jiě jie." Dōng dōng's little face turned bright red from being praised.

  "Dongdong, you can now compare beauty with your sister Ye'er." Sang Qingqing handed the photo in her hand to Ye Qi: "Uncle Ye, take a look, isn't it?"

  Lu Ye poked him: "Hand over your test results, don't think I've forgotten."

  "Why don't you trust people?" Cang Qingqing helplessly went back to her room to fetch the report, Luo Ye stood up and followed her, after reading it she nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad, but don't get emotional, I'm thinking of letting you recover your health then helping me do all the hard work, didn't we discuss investing in Liang You Lian Suo yesterday? This one I'll fully entrust to Sister Qingqing to take charge of, heh heh, I will calculate it carefully?"

  Sang Qingqing hugged Luo Ye tightly: "Don't pretend anymore, I understand what you mean. But is it worth investing so much for me? Honestly, if you were a boy, I might really not dare to accept your kindness."

  "Really?" Luo Ye twisted her body to get out of Cang Qingqing's arms, and pressed her into the chair: "Sister Qingqing, Liang You Lian Shuo is an absolutely high-quality investment. As people's living standards improve, they will naturally pay more attention to healthy eating, so the returns it brings will exceed your expectations many times over."

  "Do you think I'm the kind of person who throws money around impulsively? You yourself said that you can't even understand why I'm so good to you, and I've explained it before - it's because we're fated to be together. But just because we're fated doesn't mean I'll do something stupid."

  This is a kind that can never be explained, Sang Qingqing in Luo Ye's eyes is the one who was herself in her past life. As for how to let the other party come out, she is also experimenting, in other words, she is using a mentality of redeeming her past self to do this thing.

  Wenyuan and Chenxing Software have both taken off, but now Sang Qingqing needs a busy outlet. Although she always smiles, the pain and hurt in her eyes occasionally reveal themselves. Having an outlet for her career may be the best way to heal.

  Good friends are absolutely high-quality investments. In the future, half of the catering industry in Island City will be occupied by this company. This was still the case in the past life, and now with her joining, the tentacles will naturally not be limited to just one city.

  ……?

  "Mom?" Luo Ye rushed into the kitchen as soon as she entered the door, and saw Wen Xin busy cooking. She didn't even have time to change her shoes before pouncing over, startling Song Qiu and Dou Dou who rolled away in fright.

  Warmly hugging her daughter, tears quickly moistened her eyes, and she sniffled: "Silly girl, mom cleaned the kitchen and got a whole body of dust."

  "I don't mind, mom go rest and I'll clean up." Yue said with an embarrassed smile. In the days when her mother was not around, she had cooked three meals a day, and for the rest of the time, she had ordered takeout from the cafeteria. The food in the cafeteria was actually quite delicious, after all, the people in this hospital were not to be trifled with, unless they didn't want to work anymore.

  A warm voice hastily stopped a certain Ye from rolling up his sleeves: "I've already packed, it's been so long since I've eaten mom's cooking, aren't you hungry?"

  "Of course I'm hungry!" Luo Ye awkwardly rushed into the living room and smiled at her grandfather, who was beckoning to her: "Grandpa, forgive me for getting excited when I saw Mom."

  "It's okay, continue being excited, Grandpa doesn't eat vinegar." The old man became more and more humorous.

  "Mom, I'll help you pick vegetables." Luo Ye moved a small stool to sit at the kitchen door and accompany her mother to pick vegetables. Song Qiu and Dou Dou were squatting beside her, and her warm eyes turned red again. This scene, she had dreamed of it many times in her hometown.

  "Mom, is everything okay with Grandpa's family now?"

  "Hmm, the provincial leaders have all gone to atone for their sins, and the matter of the Wen family's mansion is temporarily considered settled. However... " Wen Xin paused: "Your younger aunt-in-law has actually become a nun. When the news reached the Wen family, your younger uncle went to persuade her once, but she was resolute."

  "Ah?" Luo Ye's mouth was wide open, this news shocked her too much.

  "Could it be that the Yu family is involved?" Luo Ye said, shaking her head again: "It shouldn't be, even if the Yu and Wen families aren't on the same page, it shouldn't have come to this."

  "This thing, I heard from your younger brother-in-law that Yu Miao told her father about our family returning to Wen's house, and her father leaked the news to others. She was heartbroken because of this."

  "After all, she's been with your brother-in-law for so many years. Her father can't accept this kind of thing, and I think it's not something that happened overnight either."

  "Agreed, the old lady is getting smarter and smarter." Luo Ye changed the subject: "But it's good that Xiao Shu and she are separated. When they're together, they still have to guard against each other's calculations, which is too scary. Xiao Shu is handsome, loyal, and rich, don't worry about him not having a good girl to marry."

  "What's it to you?"

  "Mom, it would have been great if you had come back the day before yesterday. Brother's singing moved everyone, including Dad. It's a pity that Mom wasn't there in person. She pulled Grandpa away and refused to go, but after watching the TV broadcast, she regretted it."

  “……”?

  Luo Zheng had just returned home and was surprised to see his wife, who seemed calm on the surface but had a hint of joy in her eyes that was easily noticeable. He walked up to the kitchen door and asked, "Wen Xin, didn't you say you were coming back tomorrow?"

  "What's wrong, you saw me unhappy today?" Warmly scolded her husband with a glance.

  Luoye Meng slapped his forehead: "Right, mom, I was so excited that I forgot about this."

  "It was just to surprise you, so I deliberately said tomorrow."

  "Mom is afraid that I and brother will play truant to go to the airport to pick someone up?"

  "Why can't your mom worry that I'll be late for work to pick her up?" Luo Zheng just made a rare joke, and after saying it, he probably felt embarrassed to say such things in front of his daughter, so he covered it up with a cough and went to chat with Grandpa Luo.

  Luo Ye's smile: "Dad is shy, hehe"

  ……?

  Time flies, and it's already the sunny March of next year. There are less than three months left until the college entrance examination. The atmosphere in the third year of high school is filled with tension everywhere. However, a certain classmate, Ye, is an exception to this tension. Over the past few months, her grades have risen to the top six in the class. As long as she makes a bit more effort, entering her dream university will be absolutely no problem. As for the physical examination, if she can't pass it, then nobody can.

  Something unexpected happened a few months ago, during the Spring Festival, Mayor Yang got divorced, initiated by his wife. The reason was that she felt her husband was too busy and had no time to take care of her. This matter earned Mayor Yang sympathy from many people.

  Yang Xing thought of confiding in Luo Ye when his father got divorced, but seeing the cold expression on Luo Ye's face when he looked at him, the words that were about to come out of his mouth retreated.

  This day Luo Ye had just entered Master's villa when Dong Dong ran over to report the good news: "Ye Er sister, I got first place in the whole department this time!"

  "Dongdong is so great!" Luo Ye praised with a smile, the little guy's learning was indeed beyond her expectations. When he first transferred to the local school class, she was worried that he couldn't keep up, but as it turned out, he got fifth place in the whole class on his first exam. Later, after adapting to the teacher's teaching method, his grades continued to rise, and in this aspect, the two sisters were evenly matched.

  Dongdong's face turned red as he pulled at the corner of Ye Xiang's clothes: "Sister Ye, I'm going on TV again, can you come with me?"

  "Going on TV? Did Dongdong sign with some brand?"

  After Dongdong last appeared on TV, several entertainment companies with a certain scale took a fancy to him and tried every means to find out which school he was attending, wanting to sign him as a child star. His mother had consulted Luo Ye about this matter.

  Luoye refused to help them make a decision, Dongdong's outline is good, with the potential for redness, if Li wants to rely on her son's nobility, this is a way, she really can't comment on such things.

  Mrs. Li finally decided not to let her son enter that circle too early, and she also told Luo Ye the truth, she had a moment of temptation, after all, her son became famous, made money, and she also gained face, and when she returned to her hometown, she could hold her head up high.

  Even if the Yins were to find out, they wouldn't dare do anything reckless; the child has grown up and is sensible now, it's not like they can just take him away whenever they want. But thinking about it again, her current salary is hardly enough for expenses, there's no need to let her son sacrifice his studies for money, she doesn't want to be a selfish mother.

  Li's frankness made Luo Ye very happy, happy that Dongdong had a mother who truly loved him. Although she paid Li a decent salary, it was still far from what he could earn as a star. This temptation wasn't something every mother could resist.

  When Dongdong said he was going on TV, Luo Ye's first reaction was that he had signed an endorsement deal.

  "Yeer sister guessed wrong, it's a TV interview program of the city TV station, let me participate as a representative of primary school students, I can bring two parents, I want to ask mom and Yeer sister to accompany me, is that okay?" Dongdong looked at Luoye expectantly.

  "What time is it?" Luo Ye deliberately kept him in suspense.

  "Next Friday night at seven o'clock sharp, will Yeh sister be okay?" Dongdong's eyes showed even more concern.

  "Dongdong, why don't you take Qingqing Auntie along? I have time."

  "Aunt Qingqing, finished work?" Dongdong hastily came forward and took over the briefcase from Sang Qingqing's hand: "I'll help Aunt Qingqing put it away."

  "This little thing, deliberately changing the subject."

  "Little things can be clever." Luo Ye hugged Sang Qingqing: "Sister Qing, don't work so hard, Qu Yue said that good friends don't need to interfere with each other's affairs. We'll just pretend not to know, why are you working so hard for nothing, it's too easy for that guy?"

  "I'm not tired, don't care about the big or small heads, as long as it's an investment by Ye Er, I will keep an eye on it. By the way, wasn't Yin Dejiu's small shop returned? He has now moved to a new location, expanded his store, and reapplied to join Liangyou chain, what do you think we should do about this?"

  "It's okay to let him join, we just need to treat him as an ordinary boss, Dongdong has secretly checked on him twice, the bigger the child gets, the more he cares"

  "Alright, I understand. Last time when Aunt Li went back home to transfer her household registration, the Yin family didn't make a fuss. Aunt Li's heart was also warmed up, not like what happened with Dongdong mentioning his dad's past goodness. This matter, well, outsiders can't comment on it."

  Wow, 7,000 words, isn't that an exaggeration?
