Chapter 301 - 301: Relieved

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Some people were really two-faced.

One face was reserved for the public, and the other was for behind people’s backs.

Han Zhenming’s matter suddenly made Luo Cheng doubt his life.

Could it be that everyone around him was two-faced?

With this suspicion, Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said, “How about this? I’ll go back and think about it! No matter what, I’ll reply to you tomorrow!”

Chen Xiang knew that this matter couldn’t be settled overnight, so he nodded. That night, after dinner, Luo Cheng called Luo Ziyang into his study.

“Ziyang, is everyone two-faced?”

Luo Ziyang was confused when he heard this question.

Why did he feel that this question was so profound?

“Do you think Xiaoran is perhaps also someone two-faced?” Luo Cheng asked casually.

At this moment, Li Xiaoran brought some sliced fruits over. When she reached the door, she heard Luo Cheng say this.

Li Xiaoran was instantly furious. She pushed the door open and said righteously, “I’m good at socializing. I can have dozens of faces! Do you want to see what kind of side I have today? Why don’t you get a taste of my feisty side today?!”

Seeing this, Luo Ziyang quickly tiptoed away.

If he didn’t escape now, wouldn’t he be implicated if he stayed here?

After Luo Ziyang ran out, he didn’t forget to close the door considerately and leave everything inside to his brother and sister-in-law.

Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran, who was glaring at him with her eyes widened and her hands on her hips. She looked very aggressive. Luo Cheng couldn’t help but swallow.

“Wife, will you believe me if I say it’s a misunderstanding?”o

“I believe you!” As Li Xiaoran spoke, she leaned forward and trapped Luo Cheng on the chair with her arms. “I have plenty of time now. Please explain!”o

Luo Cheng stared at Li Xiaoran’s face and suddenly realized that Li Xiaoran’s eyes were very beautiful.

Her eyes were clear and almond-shaped. Her eyes weren’t drop dead gorgeous, but they were surprisingly heartwarming.

“I encountered something today. Suddenly, I seemed to have reacquainted with an elder I used to think was very kind. Because the contrast was too great, I wondered if everyone has two faces and that they treat different people with different faces!” Luo Cheng said what was on his mind.

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she thought about it seriously and let go of Luo Cheng.

“If it’s because of this, I can understand! Actually, everyone has a myriad of sides. For example, in front of you, I can easily be myself. In front of Xiao Qing, I’m an elder sister, so I have to be more mature. In front of the Li family, I

always have a straight face and a disgusted expression!”

“It’s not like that! What you’re saying is normal. I’m talking about the kind of person you used to think was a very righteous person and a very respectable elder, but suddenly one day, someone told you that the elder had done a lot of bad things. He’s very wicked and not what you thought at all. How would you feel?” Luo Cheng shook his head and voiced his doubts.

“I understand what you mean! This involves a person’s character. If that’s really the case, then this elder must be a hypocrite! If he’s really such a person, you should feel lucky since you saw his true colors and won’t be deceived by him anymore!” Li Xiaoran said.

“Of course, you can’t start suspecting everyone just because of this person! There are good and bad people in this world. How can you think that everyone around you is bad just because you met one bad person?!” Li Xiaoran said righteously.

This was paranoia, which had to be treated.

If he wasn’t treated, Luo Cheng would always be suspicious in the future.

It was stressful to live like that.

Over time, the paranoia would affect his life.

Li Xiaoran didn’t want Luo Cheng to live like this, so she tried her best to enlighten him.

Luo Cheng watched as Li Xiaoran racked her brains to persuade him and immediately came to a realization.

Why would he doubt his loved ones for someone who wasn’t worth it?

In order to guide him, Li Xiaoran was thinking of various ways to enlighten him. He should live his life to the fullest.

After thinking it through, Luo Cheng pulled Li Xiaoran, who was still thinking of a way to comfort him, into his arms.

Luo Cheng kissed Li Xiaoran on the forehead.

“Don’t worry, as long as you’re around, I’ll never be in anguish! Wife, it’s fine as long as you’re with me!”

Li Xiaoran didn’t expect Luo Cheng to suddenly make advances on her. Not only did he hug her, but he also secretly kissed her.

After a moment of thought, Li Xiaoran hugged Luo Cheng’s waist. Then, she stood on her tiptoes and kissed Luo Cheng’s face.

“Haha, it’s fair now! Neither of us will take advantage of the other!” With that, Li Xiaoran squatted down and escaped from Luo Cheng’s arms. Then, she went to take the fruits that she had sent over.

“This citrus has just ripened recently. It tastes very good. Try it! When you eat something sweet, you will feel sweet inside as well!” With that, Li Xiaoran took a piece and placed it in Luo Cheng’s mouth.

It had to be said that the citrus was juicy and sweet. There was no sour taste at all.

“What is this? It tastes so good.” Luo Cheng couldn’t help but ask.

“I don’t know. Little Huzi sent it over today. He said that he found a citrus tree on the mountain. Many birds were pecking at it, so they climbed up the tree and picked the remaining good fruits!” Li Xiaoran shook her head and said, “You think this citrus tastes nice too, right?! When we go up the mountain, we can cut some branches and graft them onto some fruit trees, so we can eat such delicious citrus fruits next year!”

“Let’s put this matter aside for now! Anyway, the fruit tree is still here! Wife, let’s discuss the construction of the manor. I went to look for Chen Xiang today and he told me about the construction of the manor. If we want to build a manor, we have to wait until he finishes building Father and Mother’s home. It that’s the case, we still have to wait for a month!” Luo Cheng thought of something and said.

“However, there’s another way. I’ll pay Chen Xiang half of the money for the construction of the farmstead first.. After he gets some craftsmen, he can start construction immediately!”
