Chapter 936: Chapter 936 Stroke the Fur, Not Alarming

Luo Xuyuan watched his pained expression and couldn’t help but laugh inwardly.

Downstairs, the women sat together chatting.

Seeing that Grandmother had gone to the kitchen, Luo Qiao also stood up and followed her, pulling out a red packet from her pocket: "Grandma, for the New Year, your granddaughter wants to give you a red packet, hoping you have good health and always a smile on your face this coming year."

Zhou Guifang burst into laughter: "You’re treating Grandma like a child, giving her a red packet."

Luo Qiao giggled and rested her hand on Grandma’s shoulder: "You know what they say ’old yet young’; it’s just a little token for good luck and happiness, please accept it."

Zhou Guifang poked Luo Qiao’s forehead with a finger: "I just can’t win with you."

Luo Qiao stuffed the red packet into Grandma’s pocket, and seeing that Grandma was filling a plate with dried fruit and candied fruit, she offered to help: "I’ll take some upstairs for you."

In Capital City, ever since Jing Wanpeng returned from abroad, he had become even more reserved.

The Butler came in: "Third Young Master, a guest has come to visit; do you wish to meet with them?"

Jing Wanpeng tapped the armrest of the mahogany chair lightly: "I won’t go over. Aren’t Big Brother and Second Brother with Grandfather?"

The Butler respectfully said: "Alright, this is some fresh fruit that has just been delivered. Please try some."

Jing Wanpeng looked at the fresh strawberries arranged before him: "Are these from Yipin Fruits and Vegetables?"

The Butler replied: "Yes, Yipin Base made quite a handsome profit this winter just from selling these off-season strawberries. Miss Luo Qiao really is remarkable.

And that’s not even their main business. I heard that before the New Year, their project team’s drug went into clinical trial, and if it passes the trial, that’s going to be a significant contribution.

I’ve inquired before, and Miss Luo Qiao is going to pursue her doctorate degree when the new term starts."

After the Butler reported the information he had gathered, he prepared to leave.

The Third Young Master used to be awfully cold to everyone, but he was different to Miss Luo Qiao. Others might not notice, but the Butler, having been by the Third Young Master’s side for many years, could sense the special attention he had for Miss Luo Qiao even from the subtle details.

This time, the Third Young Master had spent a rather long time abroad and only returned before the New Year, so the Butler was eager to present the information he collected during that time.

Before he could step out the door, he heard the Third Young Master’s voice from behind: "Send over the camera I brought back from abroad to her. Say it’s a gift specifically brought back for her daughters."

The Butler quickly responded: "Yes, I’ll deliver it personally right away."

Luo Qiao carried the dried fruit and candied fruit upstairs, and the door to Luo Siyuan’s room was open: "Grandma asked me to bring some snacks up for you guys."

Luo Xuyan, who was closest to the door, took it from her: "Has Grandpa come back yet?"

Luo Qiao shook her head: "They must have started chatting again."

Luo Siyuan sat up: "I’ll go out for a walk and see if I can meet Grandpa; I hope he didn’t end up drinking again with that bunch."

Luo Qiao laughed: "You might be right about that."

Before the New Year, the managers from Yipin Base came to Capital City for a meeting and brought Luo Qiao some local specialties, with a variety of wines making up the majority.

Today, Luo Qiao brought some of those for Grandpa, including Shanxi’s Fenjiu, Hubei’s Baiyun Bian, Hei Province’s Dacang, Hebei’s Laobaigan, Liulingzui, Shaoxing’s yellow wine, and a jar of ginseng wine she had brewed herself.

After dinner, Grandpa had taken a few bottles out, saying he was going to give them to Grandpa Feng who lived down the street.

Just as Luo Siyuan came out from his room, Luo Qiao followed right behind him: "Big Brother, how’s your reading coming along?"

Luo Siyuan nodded: "Almost done."

Luo Qiao looked pleased with her brother: "That’s good. When you have time, flip through your books and review. There are only six months left, so you have to put in the effort."

Luo Siyuan nodded: "Don’t worry. I understand your intentions; I won’t let you down."

Luo Qiao, all smiles, watched as her brother went downstairs before she turned to head back to her own room where Lu Yichen was taking a nap with their daughter.

She quietly opened the door, and upon seeing the three of them sleeping soundly on the bed, a feeling of contentment welled up inside her.

As she approached, she adjusted the blankets over her two daughters and noticed Lu Yichen didn’t have anything covering him. She fetched a quilt from the wardrobe, and as she was draping it over him, she was pulled into an embrace.

"Ah, you weren’t asleep..." she exclaimed.

Before she could finish her sentence, she heard Lu Yichen whisper in her ear: "Qiao Bao, come up and rest for a bit."

Luo Qiao gave his arm a twist: "You weren’t asleep, and you didn’t make a sound. You scared me!"

Lu Yichen kissed Luo Qiao’s nose and then stroked her hair gently: "A stroke of the fur scares not. Don’t be mad, Qiao Bao. I didn’t do it on purpose. I just wanted to see what you would do, whether you’d take advantage of me while I was asleep. Turns out, my wife is a noble soul. But I can’t resist making the move myself."

With that, he hugged her and burst into laughter.
