Chapter 747: Seven hundred forty-five, siblings

Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo parted ways, and she returned to the Guard’s Members’ Courtyard. Hanmo was originally going to escort her back, but she declined. Having distinguished himself with his recent achievements, he was about to be transferred to the Jiangcheng Guard District and certainly had many matters to handle. Besides, she wasn’t so delicate as to insist he escort her home for such a short distance.

She hadn’t reached home yet when she saw Wu Yuan, Qi Hui, Fang Jingmei, and Zhang Xiaoling—who was usually so busy she was rarely seen—standing outside her house from a distance.

"Luo Shu!" They were smiling brightly as they stood there, and when they saw her, they hurried over to her.

"Luo Shu, you’re truly amazing!"

"You are the pride of all of us Guard’s Wives."

"I heard that the King of Langxi Country even invited you to the palace."

"Was the King very stern? Is he much like the ancient emperors we had?" the crowd asked, talking over each other.

The recent television reports had all been about the good news of the alliance between Langxi Country and Yan Country; it would have been hard for them not to know. Moreover, their husbands would come home every day and tell them about Luo Shu’s activities in Langxi Country.

Luo Shu’s experiences truly made them envious and admiring. However, they knew that only Luo Shu could achieve those feats; if it had been one of them, they would have been struck speechless by the sight of the towering foreigners, not to mention that they were not doctors.

"The King of Langxi Country is an elegant, charming man. He’s not fearsome; on the contrary, he’s quite witty and humorous," Luo Shu laughed. At yesterday’s banquet, the Hillprys had spoken a lot with her; knowing that Tenglong Group was hers, they hoped her products could enter the Langxi market.

Originally, Tenglong Group’s products were only sold abroad in markets targeting the Yan Country diaspora. After this opportunity, Tenglong Group’s products truly entered the Southern Federation market. She believed that before long, Tenglong Group’s products would gain a firm foothold in the Southern Federation and become a favorite among the women there. Although she was indifferent to the amount of money, she was thrilled that her products could stand alongside brands like LV and Versace.

"Now that you’ve said that, I really want to meet that King," Zhang Xiaoling said with a face full of anticipation and envy.

"Luo Shu, I heard that Lu Hanmo is going to be transferred to Jiangcheng, right?" Wu Yuan asked. Her husband, Old Li, had already told her. Thinking about Luo Shu soon leaving, her heart filled with reluctance.

"Mhm," Luo Shu nodded. This news would probably be announced soon.

"So you will be leaving too?" Everyone looked at Luo Shu with reluctance. Their relationship with Luo Shu had been so good; they truly didn’t want to part with her.

"Yes," Luo Shu opened the courtyard door and let everyone in. She too felt a bit reluctant to leave this place. But as the saying goes, "All good things must come to an end," and eventually, everyone must part ways.

"When will you be leaving?" Zhang Xiaoling asked Luo Shu, her eyes brimming with deep reluctance. Without Luo Shu, she wouldn’t be where she was today. She was full of gratitude for Luo Shu.

"In at most a week, don’t be like this. I will come back to visit you all," Luo Shu said, seeing everyone on the verge of tears made her also feel flustered. She didn’t expect to hold such an important place in everyone’s hearts.

"I’ll miss you," Qi Hui sniffled, holding back her tears.

"Luo Shu, you’ll have to come back often, or else I’m afraid I’ll run the factory into the ground," Zhang Xiaoling said, wiping her eyes. She didn’t want to cry, but she couldn’t help herself.

"Once you have the baby, you must let us know," Fang Jingmei said. "We’ll take the train to Jiangcheng to see you." Among the four of them, she had spent the least amount of time with Luo Shu, yet Luo Shu had helped her a great deal.

There was that time her third child, along with other kids, went to catch frogs in the fields of a nearby village and accidentally stepped on a viper on the field’s edge. He was bitten by the viper, and if it weren’t for Luo Shu’s help, her third child would be gone by now.

The fields around here are full of vipers, and villagers could easily get bitten while working the fields. If bitten by a viper, the villagers could only wait to die or quickly amputate the bitten part.

"Tomorrow, when we go to the city, let’s have a meal at Old Master Ning’s restaurant as a celebratory send-off for you," Wu Yuan said. Although they were reluctant, this was something they couldn’t change.

"Okay!" Luo Shu felt her nose tingle, and she sniffled hard. It was the perfect time for her to say goodbye to Grandpa Ning as well.

"You’ve just come back by plane; you must be tired, we’ll come to see you tomorrow," Wu Yuan rose to her feet and said. Even if Luo Shu was in good health, she was still pregnant. Besides, there was a time difference between Langxi Country and Yan Country, and Luo Shu certainly hadn’t adjusted yet.

Zhang Xiaoling and the other two also stood up and said their goodbyes to Luo Shu.

"I’m not that tired; sit a while longer," Luo Shu insisted.

"We’ll come to see you tomorrow." Although they had endless things to say to Luo Shu, now was not the time. It would be better to wait until Luo Shu had rested well, and they could chat slowly.

After seeing off Zhang Xiaoling and the other two, Luo Shu went back to her room and took a short nap.

It was the ring of the telephone that woke her. She reached for the phone by her bed and answered lazily, "Hello!"

"Sister! It’s Xiao Zheng. I heard Brother-in-law is being transferred to the Jiangcheng Guard District, is that true?" Luo Zheng asked excitedly. He could hardly believe the news when he heard it, so he rushed to the office to make the call, eager to find out if it was true.

"He’s moving over next week," Luo Shu said with a smile. After the transfer, she and Luo Zheng would be in the same city. Although they couldn’t see each other often, the opportunities for looking after each other were certainly more frequent.

"That’s great! I’ll be able to visit you often from now on," Luo Zheng said happily. He could see his sister during his holidays or when he went to the Guard District for special training.

"Mm!" Luo Shu responded with a smile. Although their relationship had once hit rock bottom, time had eased their tensions. Although they couldn’t be as close as other siblings, she was still happy to be in the same city as him.

"Sister! Let me know when you and Brother-in-law set off; I’ll take time off to pick you up," Luo Zheng clenched the handset a little tighter, his heart filled with a mix of anticipation and fear. He was afraid that his sister would refuse and didn’t want him to meet her.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

"Okay!" Luo Shu’s voice finally came through the handset.

Although it was just a short word, it filled Luo Zheng with a sensation as though he was hearing something heavenly. His heart pounded with excitement, and his hand trembled slightly on the handset. His sister had agreed to let him pick her and Brother-in-law up – such wonderful news!
