Chapter 1139 - Chapter 1139 Chapter 1139 Just Likes to Act Cool

Chapter 1139: Chapter 1139: Just Likes to Act Cool Chapter 1139: Chapter 1139: Just Likes to Act Cool Seeing danger emerge, Luo Ziling’s first reaction was to protect Luo Yuqing.

Yang Xiaodong did not appear right away, and Luo Ziling couldn’t help but curse under his breath.

But he soon realized something was off. The dark figure that gave him an immense sense of danger did not make a move and merely stood there quietly.

“Dad?” Luo Ziling finally recognized who it was and immediately cried out in surprise.

The dark figure standing before him was none other than Luo Xusheng.

While Luo Ziling and Luo Xusheng had not met many times, after a closer look, he still managed to recognize him.

Luo Xusheng was clad in black attire, silent as a phantom, but he was not masked; he showed his face, which made him relatively easy to identify.

No wonder Yang Xiaodong didn’t jump out to protect them; how could he with Luo Xusheng there?

Hearing Luo Ziling call the shadowy figure “Dad,” Luo Yuqing, startled by the sudden turn of events, was somewhat incredulous.

She peeked out from behind Luo Ziling’s shoulder a few times and then eventually stepped out, still filled with doubt.

“He’s your dad?” she asked Luo Ziling uncertainly, her curiosity piqued as she looked at the towering Luo Xusheng in front of them.

“Dad, why do you always have to be so annoying? Every time we meet, you have to scare me like this,” Luo Ziling was a bit angry as he ranted at Luo Xusheng, who was silent and just looking at Luo Yuqing with his eyes: “Can’t you surprise me for once, instead of giving me a fright?”

Luo Xusheng shot Luo Ziling a glance but didn’t say anything, his gaze still fixed on Luo Yuqing.

“Dad, this could be your daughter. How about we find a place with better lighting and you take a good look,” Luo Ziling said seriously, pulling Luo Yuqing’s hand: “I think she looks quite like you. Take a closer look, what do you think?”

Luo Xusheng, wordless, glanced at Luo Yuqing twice more and then turned to walk away.

“Hey, where are you going!” The thought of kicking Luo Xusheng into the air crossed Luo Ziling’s mind as he shouted angrily, unable to contain his sarcastic thoughts about his father: “How did a silent guy like you manage to win my mom’s heart and still have so many women pining for you? Does this cool act really make them want to throw themselves at you, weeping and screaming?”

Luo Yuqing, both frightened and excited, was anxious when she saw Luo Xusheng turn to leave without uttering a word.

She just didn’t know what to do.

“Follow me,” said Luo Xusheng without turning his head, and he continued striding forward.

Luo Ziling took Luo Yuqing’s hand and hurried to catch up.

“Where are we going?” When he caught up with Luo Xusheng, Luo Ziling asked loudly: “To see my mom, or someplace else?”

It was then that Luo Xusheng finally slowed down, still not turning back: “Find a place, I’m hungry.”

“Damn it,” Luo Ziling felt that urge again to kick Luo Xusheng flying, cursing his pretentious old man inwardly. If he wanted to sit and talk with them, he should just say so, instead of putting on this deep act.

Luo Ziling felt a renewed contempt for Luo Xusheng.

Eventually, it was Luo Yuqing who pointed to a hotpot restaurant not far from the roadside, suggesting that the three of them go eat hotpot together. “It’s so cold. Let’s have hotpot!”

“Do you want to eat hotpot?” Luo Ziling didn’t immediately agree with Luo Yuqing but asked Luo Xusheng.

Luo Xusheng ignored Luo Ziling and turned to head into the hotpot restaurant.

Luo Ziling was furious, grinding his teeth, but helpless.

He couldn’t beat Luo Xusheng, and getting angry would only end up humiliating himself.

He also couldn’t lose his temper with his father, who seldom returned to the Capital.

The most awkward was Luo Yuqing, the most thrilled was also her, and the most at a loss was still her.

It could be said that Luo Yuqing was overwhelmed with a multitude of emotions and her heart was racing so fast she couldn’t keep track.

The man she had always thought of as her father, Li Tianguan, had treated her very poorly, and even once, while she was napping, he crept in. If she hadn’t resisted with all her might, her own father would have violated her purity.

Such incidents didn’t happen just once, but several times.

This all happened when Luo Yuqing was about twelve or thirteen years old.

Since then, Luo Yuqing, who had never felt much affection for her father, began to see Li Tianguan as a devil, someone she could gladly go without seeing for the rest of her life.

Luo Yuqing eventually mustered the courage to reveal her father’s beastly behavior to her mother, Wu Ningjing.

Upon learning of it, Wu Ningjing had a huge argument with Li Tianguan and ultimately moved away from the original family home with Luo Yuqing.

Free from Li Tianguan, Luo Yuqing breathed a sigh of relief, but the nightmare didn’t quite end there. That beast of a father still sought to violate her.

Fortunately, she maintained high vigilance and never allowed Li Tianguan to succeed.

Later on, Li Tianguan died.

When Luo Yuqing heard the news of Li Tianguan’s death, she felt no sorrow but instead hid away and laughed out loud a few times.

While Li Tianguan was alive, it was as if she was living in hell; his death finally freed her.

It was after Li Tianguan’s death that Luo Yuqing learned the truth from Wu Ningjing, and it dawned on her that Li Tianguan knew she was not his biological daughter and wanted to exact revenge by ruining her chastity.

She was not Li Tianguan’s biological daughter, there were no blood ties, so his actions weren’t considered incestuous.

Of course, Luo Yuqing only understood why things happened as they did after Wu Ningjing told her the “truth.” She resented Wu Ningjing for not telling her earlier, and while blaming her mother, she also longed to meet her “real” father.

However, she couldn’t be certain that Luo Xusheng was indeed her father.

But she still believed that Luo Xusheng was her biological father and that she and Luo Ziling were brother and sister– even if she was reluctant to accept this.

Li Tianguan never cared for her, spewing only hateful words, and Luo Yuqing was deeply disappointed. She also yearned for true paternal affection.

Therefore, she eagerly anticipated meeting Luo Xusheng and proving that he was indeed her biological father.

Being cherished by a man and receiving paternal love was the dream of Luo Yuqing, who had lived with shadows in her life since young.

Having finally met Luo Xusheng today, how could she not be excited?

The flood of emotions made her unconsciously grip Luo Ziling’s arm tightly.

If she didn’t hold onto Luo Ziling’s arm, she felt as though she would become unsteady.

When Luo Xusheng was walking in front of her, Luo Yuqing tightened her grip on Luo Ziling’s hand, yet her eyes weren’t on Luo Ziling but were fixed on the imposing figure of Luo Xusheng. However, when she stepped into the private room and faced Luo Xusheng, she didn’t dare to look at him.

She had never felt this nervous before.

After entering the private room, Luo Ziling greeted Luo Xusheng and Luo Yuqing to sit down and called in the waiter to order a hot pot and some side dishes.

After the waiter left, Luo Ziling smiled and said to Luo Xusheng, who occasionally glanced at Luo Yuqing, “Dad, look, isn’t she your daughter?”

Luo Xusheng opened his mouth but ultimately found himself unable to speak.

In fact, after getting a clear look at Luo Yuqing, he no longer denied that she was his daughter.

Because when he clearly saw Luo Yuqing, a natural sense of affection welled up inside him, similar to the feeling he had for Luo Ziling.

An affection that surged from the very depths of his heart.
