Chapter 280: Chapter 280 Return to the Capital Chapter 280: Chapter 280 Return to the Capital Luo Family Eldest Uncle’s Wife Qiao Juan heard some gossip at work and warned Luo Tianming and his wife. As a result, she was sarcastically accused by her sister-in-law Feng Hui of trying to ruin Luo Bin’s reputation, almost to the point of being told that Qiao Juan was being nosy. It made Qiao Juan seethe with anger for days.
Before boarding the train, Luo Qiao glanced back at the direction of the farm, thinking that she still wanted to revisit it when she had time.
After finding her seat and sitting down, she exhaled deeply, unsure of what the meeting with the Luo Family would be like.
The rattling sound of the train drifted Luo Qiao’s thoughts far away. She didn’t know whether the Luo Family would wholeheartedly accept her, but she set a rule for herself: always keep a clear head.
After one night, the train arrived at the station a little after seven in the morning. Luo Qiao, carrying only a cross-body bag with a set of spare clothes inside, followed the crowd off the train.
As soon as she exited the station, someone shouted, “Qiaoqiao, over here, over here, Big Brother is here!”
A person rushed over, and after a clear view, Luo Qiao asked, “Big Brother, how did you know I was on this train?”
Luo Siyuan replied, “Didn’t you say you would arrive on the 2nd? I looked up all the trains coming from that direction, thinking you might take this one, so I came early to wait.
I was ready to camp out at the train station today, but I didn’t expect you to be on this train. I thank you, Qiaoqiao. Let’s go home.”
Luo Qiao nodded gently. Before getting off the train, she went to the restroom as a cover to tidy up her appearance in the space, so you really couldn’t tell she’d been on the train all night.
Luo Siyuan, looking at his delicate sister, said, “Big Brother will not be able to return until this evening; he’s in the army and it’s hard to get leave during the day.”
Luo Qiao suddenly thought of the eldest and second brothers, who had only been mentioned once before, “Can I visit Big Brother and Second Brother this time?”
Luo Siyuan fell silent abruptly and after a long while finally said, “Qiaoqiao, I’ll discuss this with Grandma and Grandpa later. Don’t mention it in front of everyone; I’m afraid it might upset Mom again.”
Luo Qiao responded, “Understood. If it’s inconvenient, let’s forget it; I don’t want to cause trouble.”
Luo Siyuan gave a wry smile, “No problem, I’ll talk to Grandma and Grandpa about it. I think they will agree.”
An hour later, Luo Siyuan led Luo Qiao to the Mechanical Factory Residential Compound. Along the way, they met many neighbors, who came up to greet Luo Siyuan, “Siyuan, who is this?”
Annoyed yet smiling, Luo Siyuan introduced, “This is my younger sister, Luo Qiao.”
“Oh my, so this is the top scorer of Ji City’s middle school exams this year! Siyuan, your family might have a college student in the future. This girl is so pretty, much more so than Jia Ning.”
“No wonder Deputy Director Luo seemed in a good mood today; it turns out his daughter is coming back.”
“So she’s not leaving again, right? It’s better to stay with the family.”
Amidst a chorus of greetings, Luo Qiao followed Luo Siyuan into the Luo Family courtyard, a quaint two-story house with many flowers and plants, exuding elegance.
As they walked through the gate, they were greeted by an elderly couple with white hair. Zhou Guifang’s eyes filled with tears upon seeing Luo Qiao, “Child, welcome home.”
Luo Siyuan hurriedly introduced, “Qiaoqiao, these are Grandma and Grandpa.”
Luo Qiao softly greeted, “Hello, Grandpa and Grandma.”
Zhou Guifang could no longer hold back her tears and sobbed, “Good, good, it’s good that you are back.”
Luo Daoren, seeing his wife cry and feeling a sting in his heart, quickly said, “Come inside, come inside, we should be happy with the child’s return.”
Zhou Guifang wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said, “I am really old now, my eyes are no good, can’t stand seeing anything… I am happy to see my granddaughter return. Child, come, your Grandpa is right, we should be happy; let’s go inside.”
Once everyone had crowded around Luo Qiao into the house, Luo Siyuan finally began the introductions, “Luo Qiao, this is Eldest Uncle Luo Haoxuan, Auntie Song Shiya, Uncle Luo Haoqing, and Auntie Gu Hongjuan.”
Luo Qiao politely said, “Hello, Eldest Uncle, Auntie, Uncle, Auntie, I am Luo Qiao.”
