Chapter 878: Chapter 878: I’m proud of you

Luo Qiao turned to Luo Siyuan at her side and said, "Fourth Brother, bring the dishes to the table."

Having said that, she turned to Luo Haotian, "He should be on his way now."

Luo Haotian, seeing that Lu Yichen wouldn’t arrive for a while, had Luo Qiao take off her apron and follow him into the study.

Luo Haotian closed the door behind them, "Take a seat."

"Dad, just ask me whatever you want to ask."

"What exactly happened with that previous incident?"

Luo Qiao started from the beginning with the Luo Family and then recounted the events involving the Huang family, concluding with, "And everything after that is what you already know."

Luo Qiao had always been curious about Luo Haotian’s background. She had thought about asking several times, but she felt it might be something not to be disclosed, so she suppressed her doubts.

Luo Haotian smiled without saying anything; he knew his daughter was smart enough to suspect something about his background. But they had confidentiality regulations, and it wasn’t something to be disclosed. So, he patted his daughter’s shoulder, "I was a soldier once, and I’m proud of it for my entire life."

Luo Qiao laughed upon hearing this, "I’m proud of you."

Just then, they heard some noise outside; Lu Yichen’s voice came through, "Fourth Brother, where’s Qiaoqiao?"

Luo Siyuan rolled his eyes, "Not the slightest tact, can’t he say something different?"

Lu Yichen put down what he was carrying, "Fourth Brother, why haven’t I seen Qiaoqiao?"

Luo Siyuan turned and went back to the kitchen, not bothering to say anything more. After setting the table, he called out in the direction of the study, "Dad, Qiaoqiao, dinner’s ready."

By then, Lu Yichen had already washed his hands and was helping to serve the food, "Dad, Qiaoqiao, let’s eat."

The four of them sat down, chatting about various things, and Luo Qiao looked up at Luo Siyuan, "Fourth Brother, when are you going to bring home a sister-in-law?"

Luo Siyuan took a mouthful of food into his own bowl, "What’s the rush? Seeing how outstanding the previous sisters-in-law have been, the pressure on me is huge. I have to take my time."

Luo Qiao thought about it and realized that he had a point. The eldest sister-in-law had an associate’s degree, the second sister-in-law was a college graduate, and although the third sister-in-law had only graduated from high school, she was currently enrolled in a distance learning program and would get her diploma in a year’s time. Not to mention, she had a good job with a permanent position.

Looking at her fourth brother, she nodded in agreement, "You’ve got to make an effort, then; Grandma and Grandpa have already started preparing wedding supplies for you."

Luo Siyuan retorted, "Marriage depends on fate. When fate arrives, things will naturally move quickly. Besides, Grandma and Grandpa have been busy with several weddings back-to-back; they deserve a break."

Luo Qiao leaned closer to Luo Siyuan, "Fourth Brother, tell me, is there someone you like?"

Luo Siyuan stretched out his hand, intending to flick Luo Qiao’s forehead, but Lu Yichen extended his arm to block it, "Qiaoqiao is just concerned about you. She wouldn’t bother if it were someone else."

As he stood up to start clearing the tableware, he added, "You’re not getting any younger. Don’t be so picky. If someone suitable comes along, settle down quickly. Don’t drag things out."

Luo Qiao also stood up to help, "Fourth Brother, don’t listen to him. Find someone you share common values with. Otherwise, if you can’t even have a conversation, how can you live a life together?"

Luo Siyuan laughed, "Qiaoqiao understands me best."

Lu Yichen, out of habit, insisted Luo Qiao rest while he washed the dishes. Luo Qiao then took out the watch she had brought back from Shanghai for her fourth brother, "Fourth Brother, this is for you."

Luo Siyuan accepted it, "What’s this?"

Luo Qiao casually organized her bag, "Why don’t you open it and find out?"

Upon opening it and seeing the watch inside, Luo Siyuan looked up at Luo Qiao and pointed to himself, "For me?"

Luo Qiao nodded, "You’re no spring chicken, after all. I need to invest a little to get you off the market sooner."

Luo Siyuan laughed despite himself, "You talk as if your fourth brother can’t find anyone to want him. But seriously, this watch is really for me?"

"If you don’t want it, forget it. I can give it to Third Brother. I remember his watch face is worn out too."

"No, no, no, I think this watch suits me more. But Qiaoqiao, this watch wasn’t cheap, right? How much was it? Let Fourth Brother pay you."

"Come on, do you really need to make it so transactional?"

"It’s not that. As your brother, spending my sister’s money just doesn’t sit right with me."

"Alright, just bring home a sister-in-law for me soon enough."

"Deal, I’ll keep the watch. When I earn some money, I’ll buy you an even better one."
