“Yuan!” Luo Xiaoman frowned and reprimanded Mo Yuan. “He’s my father!”
Mo Yuan was stunned for an instant. He looked at her apologetically and then quietly retreated.
Luo Mushan glanced at Mo Yuan suspiciously. This young man’s power was truly extraordinary. He managed to give him a scare just now.
It seemed that each time he saw this young man, he became a little stronger.
He glanced at Luo Xiaoman. He could not help muttering under his breath, “Who the hell is this devilish man that Xiaoman brought home?”
“Father, I admit my faults and I’m willing to be punished,” Luo Xiaoman said haltingly, lowering her head.
“Good.” Luo Mushan stepped forward. He then raised the cane and brought it down forcefully.
“Father!”
“Hubby!”
Luo Qingyi, Luo Qinghen, and Xian’er reacted fast. Nonetheless, they could not stop the irascible Luo Mushan.
The sound was gentle as the cane hit her. Everyone was stunned for an instant. They saw Luo Mushan’s cane graze Luo Xiaoman and shatter into pieces.
“Hmph, I’m done punishing you. Now go back to your room and reflect on what you’ve done!”
Everyone was relieved.
Luo Xiaoman smiled. She had known that Luo Mushan would not actually hit her. He was just giving her an out.
“Yes, I’ll go and reflect over it.” Luo Xiaoman stood up and walked outside.
Xian’er came over and gently held Luo Mu Shan’s hand. “Hubby, it must’ve been hard for you.”
“Actually, I had investigated the matter before I went to the central square. It’s indeed true that the scoundrel from the Wan family molested a woman. Then, Xiaoman hit him which led to the farce. But…” Luo Mushan frowned and said in a suspicious manner, “I think Xiaoman took advantage of the situation to obtain the Qinglin Dew.”
“Hubby, you’re thinking too much. It’s not that you don’t know Xiaoman can’t build a foundation. Hence, she has no use for the Qinglin Dew. I guess that she just wants to teach the Wan family a lesson. That’s all.”
“What’s more, hasn’t the Wan family been plotting something lately? Xiaoman did this to intimidate them as well.” After a pause, Xian’er glanced at Luo Mushan and said with a perplexed look, “Hubby, you chopped off Wan Lin’s arm because of this too, right?”
Luo Mushan nodded with a wry smile, and then quietly said, “Still, this girl is too reckless. Although she has good intentions, others may view her negatively. Otherwise, she won’t be called a ‘daredevil’ or a ‘brat’.”
Xian’er understood why Luo Mushan felt so helpless. She comforted him saying, “As long as Xiaoman is happy, just let her do as she pleases. As long as the Luo family remains strong, we can protect her.”
“Although Xiaoman is young, I feel that she’s a mature person.”
Luo Mushan nodded, his heart turning cold. The situation in White City was uncertain. Although the Luo family was strong today, it did not mean that they would remain strong tomorrow.
Now that the admission ceremony was about to commence, the competition between the three families would be unprecedentedly fierce.
“By the way, did you really think I’d hit Xiaoman?” Luo Mushan turned around to ask.
“Pfft.” Xian’er smiled. Her pale face made her smile a little more poignant. “I know you well, hubby. You love Xiaoman as much as I do. I was just acting along with you.”
“Well, if I don’t do this, Xiaoman will be the subject of much gossip.” Luo Mushan sighed, looking helpless.
If he had not acted this way, the gossip about Xiaoman would continue. They would say that the Luo family pampers their unruly children.
“I was pregnant for three years. When I gave birth, it triggered a supernatural occurrence. Besides, she was blessed by the Supreme Immortal. Why can’t she build a foundation?”
If she could not build a foundation, there was no way she could practice.
In an average family, she would be considered ordinary, but in a family like hers, she was considered useless.
“Whether Xiaoman is able to practice or not, she’s still our precious daughter, no?” Xian’er said softly.
Luo Mushan nodded and his eyes dimmed. “Now that the conflict between the Luo family and the Wan family has become clear, they’ll definitely be making their move. It appears like I’ll be busy soon.”
