Chapter 767: Chapter 767 I Can Also Use Force to Suppress Chapter 767: Chapter 767 I Can Also Use Force to Suppress Luo Wensheng’s words were trusted by everyone in the room; after all, the two children had been well protected and must have been quite frightened under those circumstances.
After checking the time, Luo Daoren said to Luo Qiao, “Qiaoqiao, call your dad, your eldest uncle, and your youngest uncle, and tell them they must come back tonight.”
Luo Qiao set down her cup and walked over to the telephone.
After making the calls, she helped her grandmother prepare dinner in the kitchen, knowing they needed to make extra food since many people would be coming over tonight.
Once everyone had arrived, Luo Daoren introduced Luo Wensheng to the family and explained the situation. Luo Daoren said, “I want to see who can take leave tomorrow to accompany me; this matter cannot be delayed.”
Seeing the troubled faces of his three sons, he understood that, with the year-end, everyone was busy at their units, but with his nephew seeking help and the issue concerning his niece’s lifelong happiness, he had to set off for Tang City tomorrow. He simply couldn’t rest easy leaving a girl alone there.
Luo Xuyuan said, “Grandpa, just let me join you. It’s the end of the year, and there’s a lot to handle, with meetings cropping up all the time. It’s not easy for my dad and uncles to take leave.”
Luo Haotian added, “Let the fourth child take leave and go too; after all, it’s better to have more hands in an unfamiliar place.”
Big Brother Luo Haoxuan also looked at his father, “Let Xu Dong and Xu Nan join as well. In case something happens, they’re young and could protect you.”
Luo Xuyan then said, “I’ll go too. School is out for vacation, and I can just cancel my performance by notifying them.”
At this point, Luo Qiao stepped forward and said, “Big Brother, you shouldn’t go. First, your wife needs someone to take care of her, and if you cancel this performance, it will affect your reputation. It’s all been arranged in advance, and it would affect the entire orchestra.”
Zhou Guifang also said, “Qiaoqiao is right, you shouldn’t go.”
Then Luo Qiao added, “I’ll come along too. In case we encounter unreasonable people there, I can suppress them with force.”
Luo Wensheng looked at his cousin who was only a few years older than himself saying such things, slightly doubting her words, considering the physique of the people on his grandmother’s side.
Luo Haoxuan knew his daughter had trained in martial arts with Old Master Yuan, but he didn’t really know how skilled she was. He just knew she could hold her own.
And so it was settled. Luo Daoren would go to Tang City the next day with four grandsons and a granddaughter, accompanied by his nephew.
Luo Qiao checked the time again, not sure if her cousin’s husband was still at work, she thought it over and decided to make a phone call, “Hello, could you please find Zhang Haiming for me?”
“Zhang Haiming has already left work.”
“I see, thank you.”
After some thought, Luo Qiao realized that her cousin’s husband had clocked out and they didn’t have a home phone. What to do? They wanted to catch the earliest train tomorrow morning, and buying tickets then might be too late.
Luo Haotian suggested, “Call your maternal uncle. He has the public phone number for the apartment building where your cousin lives. Have him call your cousin’s husband to see if we can still get that many tickets. If we can, I’ll go pick them up later.”
Luo Haoqing said, “Make the call first. Train tickets these days are really hard to get.”
Luo Qiao responded, “I’ll call my uncle and ask for my cousin’s husband’s home phone number directly instead of passing messages around.”
Luo Haotian felt his daughter had a point. Once they had obtained the phone number for the public phone near her cousin’s husband’s home, Luo Qiao called, only to find out that the cousin’s family was out at a wedding banquet.
His uncles also reached out to friends but didn’t get a definite answer. With it being the end of the year, and many people traveling since schools were on holiday, everyone could understand the situation.
Luo Qiao had no choice but to contact Lu Yichen and explained the situation. Lu Yichen said, “Then wait for my news, if I can get the tickets, I will send them over later.”
After checking the time, Luo Qiao saw it was already 8:30 pm. Picking up the tickets and coming over would mean arriving past 10:00 pm, plus the roads were thick with snow. She said, “If you manage to get the tickets, there’s no need to deliver them. We can just meet at the train station tomorrow morning.”
