Chapter 510: Chapter 510: I Believe You Can Sort It Out

"Qiaoqiao, I’m fine now, I’m heading back, and I’ll pick you up at the train station tomorrow, so you can hang up first."

"Wait a minute, make yourself clear."

"Clear about what?"

"What do you mean by asking me to visit your office? You haven’t been harassed by someone, have you?" she said, and then burst out laughing.

Lu Yichen said through gritted teeth, "Are you still laughing?"

"Alright, I’ll stop laughing. I trust you can handle it. It’s getting late; head back."

After hanging up the phone, Luo Qiao chuckled to herself. She looked around and, fortunately, there was no one nearby, so she stuck her head into the courtyard and called out, "Uncle Sun, the call has ended, I’m going back."

Uncle Sun was just coming out from the main room towards her, "Alright, go back. It’s getting dark; be careful."

As Luo Qiao walked towards the exit, she called back, "Okay, see you, Uncle Sun."

Once back, she told her grandparents, "Grandpa, Grandma, I’m going back to Ji City tomorrow."

Luo Daoren said, "It’s time for you to go back to class."

Zhou Guifang, busy with her work, looked up and said, "Qiaoqiao, study hard and get into a good university in the future, set a good example for Xufei and Jiayue."

Luo Qiao smiled, "Isn’t my second brother setting the example?"

Zhou Guifang replied, "That’s why you can’t slack off, to prevent them from going astray."

Luo Qiao threw herself onto the kang bed, "So, what you’re saying is, I’m very important, huh? Xufei and Jiayue’s success or failure depends on whether I succeed or not." She snuggled into the pillow and laughed.

Zhou Guifang said, "Your second brother getting into university has already stimulated those two significantly. If you get into a good university too, they will certainly be motivated to study hard."

Luo Qiao laughed even harder.

Early the next morning, after breakfast and seeing Big Brother onto the bus, she helped her grandfather spread vegetable seeds in the woods behind the house; the leafy vegetables they’d pulled up before could be planted for another season.

After returning, she packed a bit and then picked up her bag, ready to hurry to catch her ride.

Zhou Guifang was a bit reluctant and pulled an envelope from her pocket and stuffed it into Luo Qiao’s hand: "Qiaoqiao, take this with you. You’ve spent quite a bit of money coming back this time, and Grandma doesn’t know if this is enough, but consider it a little supplement from your grandparents."

Luo Qiao couldn’t accept the elderly couple’s money, so she eagerly pushed the envelope back: "Grandma, I’ve already said I really do have money. I’m willing to spend on you. If you’re like this, then I should come back less often, shouldn’t I? Everything is so clearly quantified. You two must not have saved much over the years for Big Brother and second brother, I really can’t take this."

As she spoke, she pulled out a savings book from her crossbody bag to show to the elderly couple, revealing several deposits adding up to more than three thousand yuan; Zhou Guifang no longer insisted.

Looking at Luo Qiao, she said, "Qiaoqiao, don’t flaunt your wealth, understand?"

Luo Qiao smiled, "You and Grandpa were the ones who forced me to reveal it."

After saying this, the three of them all laughed together. Luo Daoren then said, "Okay, anymore dawdling and you’ll miss the bus."

Zhou Guifang brought out prepared food and said, "Take this to eat at noon."

The old couple stood at the street corner, watching Luo Qiao board the bus, and kept their gaze on the distant vehicle before finally withdrawing their eyes.

At Uncle Sun’s doorstep, several people were idly chatting. One of them struck up a conversation, "Luo family, with Xuyuan boarding at school and your granddaughter now gone, your house will suddenly become quiet. It’s going to take a few days for you two to adjust."

Zhou Guifang replied, "Indeed, fortunately Xuyan comes back every day, otherwise it really would be hard to adapt."

The person continued, "Ah, children grow up and they’ve got to have their own lives, but you’re lucky—your grandson and granddaughter are both so dutiful. You haven’t spoiled them for nothing. Wait until Xuyan and Xuyuan make something of themselves, then you and the old man can just sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor."

Zhou Guifang, hearing her grandchildren being praised, was all smiles. "As long as they are doing well, that’s enough for us to be happy. As for enjoying the fruits of our labor, we’re not thinking too much about that right now."

While chatting, they saw the eldest grandson Luo Xudong riding over, "Grandpa, Grandma."

Seeing her eldest grandson approach, Zhou Guifang asked, "Xu Dong, why have you come over? Aren’t you working today?"

Luo Xudong got off his bicycle, "I’m working this afternoon. Mom sent me to bring some things over."
