“Li’er!”

Luo Fei was helpless. “I’m your father. Can’t you even trust me?”

Luo Li turned her head arrogantly and groaned. Then she ignored Luo Fei.

Luo Fei sighed helplessly. He could only look at the old lady again. “Mother, I will find a cure for your disease. Even if it can’t be treated, I will definitely find a spirit herb that can extend your life.”

To be honest, the old lady had always been clear about Luo Fei’s filial piety.

Therefore, if she was still alive, no matter how many wives Luo Fei was going to marry, she would not care about it.

She was afraid that Li’er would be hurt if she died.

“Xiao Li’er, go out and play. I still have something to say to your father.” The old lady sighed softly.

Even if Luo Fei promised her not to marry now, she was afraid that no one would keep him in check after she died.

She had to do everything to help Li’er.

“Okay.”

Luo Li nodded obediently. She naturally understood that her grandmother was going to talk about Qin Xiaoyue with her father. So, she did not say much anymore and stared angrily at Luo Fei before leaving.

Luo Fei felt heartbroken seeing Luo Li’s expression of ignoring him.

He and Xiaoyue truly loved each other. However, if Li’er refused to accept her, he might not be able to marry her so easily.

***

Heaven-i.

The most prestigious restaurant in Tian Shen Manor.

But this restaurant did not accept too many guests. Only those who had a certain status could enter Heaven-i.

Luo Li had already inquired about Feng Ruqing’s whereabouts. She initially wanted to go to her straight away. Nevertheless, she stopped when she passed by Heaven-i. She remained silent for a moment and walked in.

She had to bring Feng Ruqing something to eat since going there empty-handed did not look good.

“Young Lady Luo.”

Heaven-i’s shopkeeper walked up to her with a smile when he saw Luo Li. “I’m sorry, Young Lady Luo. We are not accepting guests today.”

Luo Li was startled. She was disappointed.

It was a pity. She originally wanted to let Feng Ruqing taste the food from Heaven-i. Unfortunately, Heaven-i was not accepting guests today.

“May I know why isn’t Heaven-i accepting guests today?”

“It was because the Mu family’s young lady—Mu Huan is back. Grandmaster Hai Rong is also back. The Mu family is having a feast here to welcome them. Only those with the invitation letter can enter.”

‘Hai Rong?

‘Mu Huan’s master—Hai Rong?’

As soon as Luo Li’s eyes lit up, they dimmed again.

Hai Rong’s medical skills were extremely brilliant. He was as powerful as the physician in Tian Shen Manor.

They both had one thing in common that was they rarely treated other people.

Especially Grandmaster Hai Rong. He never hankered for wealth and rank. He just wanted to be free and unrestrained. It was impossible to ask him to cure her grandmother.

Luo Li’s eyes were filled with disappointment. Luo Li turned around, wanting to leave Heaven-i.

Maybe she had fallen into a trance, she did not even notice that a woman was coming from the front.

This woman was about thirty years old. However, her face was pretty and young showing no traces of aging due to her great skincare routine.

“Xiao Li, why are you here?”

The woman apparently noticed Luo Li. She paused and called out.

Luo Li’s body trembled. She stopped too. Her face stiffened when she saw the woman’s face in front of her.

“You are allowed to be here. Why am I not?”

Qin Xiaoyue looked at Luo Li with a smirk. “Of course, the Qin family came here by invitation. Today, Heaven-i will not receive any guests. If you call me ‘mother’, I will allow you to stay.”
