Luo Xi looked at Leng Minxing’s profile and tentatively said, “I’m also worried about you not getting enough rest and being tired for work the next day. How about we go to bed early from now on?” she suggested.
Leng Minxing’s stern expression softened slightly, and he felt soft at heart. He reached out to pat Luo Xi’s head, saying gently, “Don’t worry about me.”
Seeing the cold atmosphere around them finally start to dissipate, Luo Xi felt that Leng Minxing’s anger must have subsided. She secretly congratulated herself, knowing what to say to soften his heart.
In her previous life, she would probably be angry and just argued, each stubborn in their own way, and they would torture each other.
Leng Minxing shifted to a serious topic. “Luo Yuyi was saved by the doctors. She didn’t die.”
Luo Xi paused at his words, then smiled. “Where is she now?”
“In a secret base.”
“A secret base?” Luo Xi rubbed her chin. No wonder no one had found her after such a long time.
Some even suspected that Luo Yuyi had gone abroad to seek refuge, so no one thought much about it.
When her parents learned about this, they didn’t show much emotion. After all, she wasn’t their biological child. Given Luo Yuyi’s various deceptions, they both felt resentment towards her and were naturally unwilling to care. They let her fend for herself.
“Can you take me to see her someday?” Luo Xi asked excitedly.
Leng Minxing shot her a glance. He had long known that Luo Xi disliked Luo Yuyi. Not only did she dislike her, but she also hated her. The occasional malice she displayed shocked him, leaving him curious about what had happened between them. He had searched for information about every possible connection but found no clues.
Leng Minxing suspected that Luo Xi was hiding something from him, perhaps related to her occasional bouts of strange illness.
“You want to see her?” Leng Minxing frowned, recalling Luo Yuyi’s tragic state. He was reluctant to let her witness such a bloody scene.
“Of course, I want to see it with my own eyes,” Luo Xi insisted.
She wanted to see Luo Yuyi in the same state as in her previous life, begging for mercy with broken legs!
Leng Minxing studied her for a moment before nodding. “When I have time, I’ll take you there. But I also found something interesting here.”
“What is it?” Luo Xi looked at him curiously.
“About Luo Yuyi and her missing father.”
Leng Minxing suddenly let out a bloodthirsty smile. “Luo Yuyi is very ruthless.”
Luo Xi didn’t know what was going on and asked quickly, “What do you mean? What did she do?”
“She killed her father,” Leng Minxing spoke flatly. It was clearly a horrific incident, but he spoke as if it were a trivial matter.
Luo Xi’s eyes widened in shock. “What?”
“A few months ago, her father disappeared after being pursued for debts. He never reappeared. During that time, I heard that he sent his youngest daughter to the Luo family to ask for money. After failing to get the money, he fled abroad to escape his debts, only to fall into gambling addiction and rack up over ten million in debts. To save his life, he had no choice but to return to China and threaten Luo Yuyi. You probably know what he threatened her with.”
“Later, the two had an argument, and Luo Yuyi accidentally pushed her father down the stairs and killed him. She was afraid of being discovered, so she quickly took him back to her hometown and buried him underground. That’s why her father has never been seen again. I had people dig up the body according to the location she provided,” Leng Minxing said in a deep voice.
