Chapter 355: Three hundred and fifty-four, family portrait

"Is this a photo album?" Luo Qianyu took the album, feeling a twinge of nervousness. The sensation of the imminent revelation of the truth made his heart uncontrollably speed up.

Luo Shu nodded with a smile, "Inside, there are photos of you and Mom, as well as pictures of me and our brothers when we were little, and our family portrait."

Luo Qianyu looked at the album in his hands, took a deep breath, and slowly opened it.

As the first page turned, what appeared before him was a family portrait. It featured him in middle age, Yang Muxue also middle-aged, their father with graying temples, a grown-up Qian Yi, along with a pair of young twin men and a delicate-looking girl bearing some resemblance to him.

"Are you her?" Luo Qianyu turned to Luo Shu, his handsome face filled with excitement, even his lips trembling slightly. The truth was too incredible, yet the reality before his eyes left no room for disbelief. In fact, he was overjoyed to learn she was his daughter.

Luo Shu nodded again, "This family portrait was taken on my eighteenth birthday." That was also the year she met Lu Hanmo.

"How did you come to be here as Luo Shu now?" Luo Qianyu asked. This was what he was most eager to know.

Luo Shu thought for a moment, then began to recount the events of her past life slowly.

"Damn Song Xiran!" Upon hearing that Luo Shu had been killed by Song Xiran, Luo Qianyu wished he could find Song Xiran’s ashes and incinerate them all over again.

"Dad, don’t be angry, it’s actually quite good this way. Even though my identity has changed, I’m still part of the Divine Doctor Family. Grandma and Big Uncle are still here, and the Divine Doctor Family has become one of the True Cultivation Families, isn’t this good as well?" Luo Shu held Luo Qianyu’s hand and comforted him. If she could choose her fate again in her past life, she would still choose her current life.

Luo Qianyu pulled Luo Shu into his embrace, affectionately stroking her shiny black hair, "Shushu, you’ve really suffered."

"I’m not suffering, as long as all of you are well, I feel very blessed." Luo Shu nestled into Luo Qianyu’s arms, her face beaming with a brilliant smile.

"Dad! I still have to keep calling you ’brother.’" Luo Shu looked at Luo Qianyu. "I can’t let Second Grandpa know about my true identity. He only has one daughter, Luo Shu. If he found out Luo Shu had died, he might not be able to handle it." Luo Shu explained. It was because of this consideration that she had kept her past a secret. Second Grandpa had a tough previous life, and she hoped he could be happier in this one.

"I know!" Luo Qianyu smiled and nodded. His brother had finally found happiness again, how could he possibly bring him pain? It was just that his daughter had become his sister, which really depressed him. And then there was Lu Hanmo, that damned cradle-snatcher, who had captivated his daughter in the past life. Now, wanting to marry his treasured daughter again in this life, he would have to get past him, or else forget about it!

"Achoo!" Lu Hanmo was in the middle of devising a military strategy when he suddenly sneezed. Why did he suddenly have this peculiar feeling?

"Do you have a cold?" Yang Qingsong expressed his concern.

"No, let’s continue," Lu Hanmo said, picking up a chess piece from the sand table and placing it at a hilltop position, "I believe this spot is easy to defend and attack, making it the most suitable place for an ambush." It was nearly New Year’s, and he had planned to spend time with Shushu, but now he had received an urgent mission.

"Let’s follow Instructor Lu’s plan and set out in three days," Yang Qingsong immediately decided after hearing Lu Hanmo’s tactical layout. Lu Hanmo’s talent in the Guard was recognized by all, unquestionable. He just felt it a pity that Lu Hanmo did not become a Guard Member; he really couldn’t understand why the Lu family didn’t let Lu Hanmo join the Guard but allowed him to be an instructor, yet they did not object to him taking on missions.

After dinner, Luo Shu and Luo Qianyu talked for a long time before separating and returning to their respective rooms to cultivate.

As soon as she entered her space, Luo Shu’s communication talisman lit up, showing that Lu Hanmo was trying to contact her. Luo Shu flashed a smile and activated the talisman, "Hanmo!"

"Shushu, I have a mission in three days, and I won’t be able to spend New Year’s with you," Lu Hanmo said, his words heavy with guilt.

"It’s okay, you go, and be sure to stay safe," Luo Shu smiled. She really, really wanted to spend New Year’s with him, but she understood the special nature of his work. She knew he loved his career and that his heart was set on the nation, on the people, and he hoped to use his greatest efforts to strengthen the country. In her past life, he indeed had accomplished this. It was his seriousness and persistence that attracted her even more.

Lu Hanmo fell silent for a moment, "Shushu, I really want to see you right now!"

"Me too!" Luo Shu answered, lifting a sweet smile.

"Then come out of your space for a bit," Lu Hanmo said with a smile.

Luo Shu was momentarily stunned, then hurriedly left the space to find Lu Hanmo sitting on the sofa in her room, looking at her tenderly, "You are so naughty!" Her heart brimmed with sweetness.

Lu Hanmo stood up and opened his arms with a smile, "Shushu!"

Luo Shu ran forward with a laugh and plunged into Lu Hanmo’s arms, "How did you get here?"

"I missed you!" Lu Hanmo whispered, holding Luo Shu tightly. He was about to go on a mission, and it would be a long time before they could see each other again.

"Me too!" Luo Shu said with a smile. She never hid her feelings for him.

Lu Hanmo leaned down and tenderly kissed Luo Shu’s forehead. "One more year, and then I can marry you." Luo Xiuyi had promised him last year that he would let him marry Shushu in three years. Having helped the Divine Doctor Family with the formation last time reduced it by a year, leaving only one year to go.

"Hanmo, I’m afraid you still have to get past my biological father’s approval. I told him about myself today," Luo Shu said with an embarrassed smile as she looked at Lu Hanmo. She knew very well what Luo Qianyu was like. Now that he knew she was his daughter, he certainly wouldn’t let Lu Hanmo off easy.
