“Thank you, First Elder. I will bring myself back to the right path one day.” A cruel light flashed past Cheng Yutang eyes and he had a look of viciousness.
“Alright, as long as you have that determination,” said First Elder with a very pleased look before his silhouette disappeared from the chair.
It took Cheng Yutang quite a bit of time to calm down after First Elder was gone. His face was tensed and difficult to read.
The Luo’s at the City of Yan!
“Old man, you’ve read the letter from Junhao. Well? Are you coming with me to go see our daughter and our future daughter-in-law?”
Old Mrs. Luo was very delighted.
Their son has been gone since he had left to look for their daughter. The old couple never would imagine that he would meet a girl that he liked at their daughter’s place.
On top of that, the girl was of high status, and the two of them couldn’t find any fault with her. Which was why old Mrs. Luo decided to go visit her daughter and to check out her future daughter-in-law.”
“No! I am not going!” said Housemaster Luo, his face darkened. He had no intention to go over to their place.
Old Mrs. Luo could tell what was going through his mind from his look alone. Annoyed, she said, “How many years had it been already? And all you care about is still your ego and you’d rather not see your daughter again till the day you die?”
“You let me worry about that. If you want to go, you go by yourself!” Housemaster Luo couldn’t get himself to do it and he wasn’t happy about it.
No matter what. He was the father, the elderly in this relationship. Even if he had made a mistake back then, he still did think he should be the one who go to his daughter to admit his fault.
This was about a father’s authority and the ego of a housemaster!
He would not compromise on this point!
“You—” Old Mrs. Luo knew how stubborn her husband was and knew that she would not be able to talk him into it. “Fine. I will go by myself then. You have fun staying here all by your lonesome. I will be with our daughter and future daughter-in-law. You can do as you please!”
“Fine! Just go. No need to keep going on and on about it here!” Housemaster Luo wasn’t happy about it and didn’t’ want to talk about it anymore.
“Alright. You said so yourself!”
“……”
Seeing that her husband remained silent, old Mrs. Luo had no choice but to put away her other thoughts and said tenderly, “Old man. I will bring our daughter and our daughter-in-law back here. And you stop putting up that father front. What was in the past was in the past. We are a family. We need to move forward.”
“……”
“And, Yujie’s family, I think….”
“Stop!!”
Housemaster Luo lifted his head, gave her a stare and said, “You stop being a pushover again. Don’t tell me you don’t know what kind of people she and her family are. If you have them back, they would only muck things up. And not even your younger daughter will be able to have a peaceful day. Don’t tell me you don’t know what they have in mind. What do you think is going to happen if they harass your little daughter again?”
“Well, they are our children after all…” Old Mrs. Luo has a soft spot in her heart for them.
“Spare the rod, spoil the child!” said Housemaster Luo. “You spoiled her too much in the past. That’s why she was so selfish and tyrannical now. Her being like that to day was partially your fault.”
“What do you mean I spoiled her too much? You were the same way!”
Old Mrs. Luo was very irritated. Pointing straight at him, she said, “So you think it was all me? You were just the same. When Yujie was a child, you gave her everything that she ever asked for. How’s that all my fault now? No matter how she’s like now, she is still our daughter. What kind of a father are you? First you kick out one of our daughter and now you kick out the other one…”
“Enough!”
