Chapter 784: Brother and Sister Finally Meet I
“Grandmother.” Luo Li pouted. “My cousins only know about cultivation and they do not have any compa.s.sion toward women. If Xiao Qing chooses one of my cousins, she would surely be bullied and wronged.”
‘Those men have never had any notions of romance or love. They are hard like steel. We should find a companion who can warm the heart of a lady like Xiao Qing.’
“It’s fine even if my nephews are unsuitable for her. I still can recommend her some of the children of my husband’s relatives. If it’s really that difficult, we can look up all the families we have from the previous eighteen generations. I don’t believe that there’s not even one person who is suitable for her.”
Luo Li was speechless.
She felt that her grandmother had gone insane just to be someone’s matchmaker.
Feng Ruqing smiled slightly. “Thank you for your kind thoughts. But, I only love him.”
“Oh!” Old Lady Luo sighed again with a tinge of regret. It seemed to her that her family did not have a chance. “Young Lady Xiao Qing, you must consider the choices I have offered you if you want to get married. Are the parents of the man you love still alive and healthy? what about their characteristics? One’s future in-laws are important too. You must not let yourself be bullied or wronged.”
Old Lady Luo really cared deeply about Feng Ruqing then. It might be because of Feng Ruqing’s act in sharing with her the prescription to cure her illnesses or it might be because of Feng Ruqing’s resemblance to Tian Ya.
Feng Ruqing lowered her eyes. After a short while, she smiled and said, “He comes from a single-family. His mother is still alive. She treats me very well. His father is dead.”
That was right. Mu Ling was as good as dead to Nan Xian and Suyi.
It was true that Nan Xian came from a single-parent family.
“Then, it’s good.” The old lady smiled happily. “Xiao Li’er, we’ll return to the Luo family later. Don’t disturb Young Lady Xiao Qing. But, you’re welcome to visit us anytime at the Luo family.”
“Grandmother?” Luo Li turned and looked at the old lady helplessly. “Didn’t we promise each other that we’ll leave the Luo family together for good?”
“That’s when I thought that I’ll live no longer. I have the cure now. How could I allow that woman from the Qin family to take over the Luo family?
Old Lady Luo seemed weak now but she still kept her dignity just like when she was young.
Moreover, the Luo family was built up by her husband. ‘I’ll never allow anyone to take over it so easily!’
“Alright.” Luo Li’s excitement subsided. She thought that she would never have to return to the Luo family ever again.
‘If I don’t return with my grandmother, she would totally be infuriated with Qin Xiaoyue if I let her go home alone.’
Luo Li seemed to remember something. She turned and looked at Feng Ruqing.
“Xiao Qing, I’ll bring Qin Chen to you.”
‘Qin Chen?’
The old lady was stunned. ‘Are Feng Ruqing and Qin Chen related?”
In fact, the old lady did not have any bad impression on Qin Chen. He had always been cold and distant. But, he seemed like a cold breeze in the Qin family.
The old lady could never really hate Qin Chen and it might be because of the fact that Qin Chen did not have any blood ties with them. She even thought of arranging a marriage between Luo Li and him…
‘That young man is a pitiful person too.’
The old lady did not speak thoughts in front of Feng Ruqing. She also did not voice out her doubts. She held onto her crutch and said, “Li’er, come, let’s go home.”
Feng Ruqing did not say anything more up until that moment. She looked in the direction where the old lady had left with Luo Li. Her eyes were gentle.
‘Chen’er, we’re able to meet again at last.’

The old lady stopped walking when they were out of the manor. She frowned slightly. “Li’er, what is the relations.h.i.+p between Young Lady Xiao Qing and Qin Chen?”
