Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

After Luo Ming arrived, things developed as smoothly as Xie Xiao had anticipated.

The news of Yang Yuan's arrest had spread throughout the company by the next day.

The project team simply went through a major reshuffle.

During this period, Luo Ming was personally stationed at the branch.

As for Yan Shi and Xie Xiao, they weren't looking for him but hoped to get in touch with Luo Ming.

Yan Shi knew too many secrets about Ge Hui, but he genuinely just wanted to live a good life and didn't want to be involved in this.

Having just come out, he really did not want to go back in.

So he was looking for a way out for himself.

Luo Ming was his choice.

Unfortunately, Luo Ming was not interested in what kind of person Ge Hui was or whether he would end up in jail.

The affair with Yang Yuan might also involve Ge Hui, but he would likely find a way to extricate himself.

Xie Xiao asked, puzzled, "Uncle Luo isn't worried he'll keep causing trouble?"

At this moment, they were at home, and Luo Yanran was washing fruits in the kitchen.

"You're still too young. Ge Hui isn't foolish; he's just a greedy businessman. Knowing there's no play for him here anymore and that he can't afford to provoke me, he definitely won't keep pestering me," Luo Ming took a sip of tea. "You never see a businessman succeed if he's too petty. Look how quickly Ge Hui has established a foothold here. It's not easy, and though it might not be entirely clean, it does show that he's clever."

Luo Ming looked at Xie Xiao's thoughtful nod, smiled, and offered advice, "You should steer clear of your classmate who plays both sides. Thinking of getting out now? Why didn't he think of that from the start?"

Luo Ming sighed, "He just wanted to use you to climb up the Luo family, thinking of stepping on Ge Hui to curry favor."

It was a pity; he didn't consider that Luo Ming, a businessman, had no unresolved issues with Ge Hui.

It was just a minor business tactic, after all.

And Ge Hui was a smart man, considering he has sought out Xie Xiao many times and always made sure he came back safely.

He is also a person who knows his limits.

Such a person cannot be easily toppled.

As for Yan Shi, those tricks are beneath Luo Ming.

He was, after all, a boss, and the kind of employee who plays both sides is what he disliked the most.

Xie Xiao nodded, "I understand, Uncle."

Many things aren't just about how smart you are; Xie Xiao also knew what he lacked was experience.

From the moment he had unintentionally found himself trusting Yan Shi reflexively

Xie Xiao knew he still had much to learn.

Fortunately, there was Luo Ming in front, willing to teach him bit by bit.

Luo Yanran came out with the fruit, "How come you are still talking about work on your day off?"

Her tone was full of dissatisfaction. "Dad, my mom said you haven't paid full attention to her for a long time."

Luo Ming hastily protested his innocence, "How can your mom say that? I just went to see her last week. She was the one who thought I was in the way and told me to leave."

His voice was filled with a sense of grievance. "Your mom is even busier than I am."

He sighed heavily, "My daughter is busy too; I have it tough."

Xie Xiao wanted to laugh on the side. He had always felt that Luo Ming was aloof and hard to approach, but only after truly interacting did he realize he was quite similar in temperament to Luo Yanran.

Essentially a tsundere who acts tough but has a soft heart.

Easy-going and down-to-earth with family.

At that moment, he was just rambling on about being wronged and disliked by his wife and daughter.

Luo Yanran was so annoyed by his complaints that she took a cherry and stuffed it into his mouth. "Okay, I was wrong, Dad. Here, eat a cherry."

Luo Ming looked at his daughter's helpless face and finally nodded in satisfaction, "Alright then."

He glanced at Xie Xiao, who was trying to hold back his laughter, and then at his daughter, "What are you two planning?"

He didn't specify what it was about, but Xie Xiao understood immediately, "Uncle, we plan to register our marriage before the New Year."

The New Year was in February, and it was already early December now.

Luo Yanran was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Xie Xiao.

Although they had discussed it before, they hadn't specified when exactly they would register for marriage.

But it was quite satisfying how Xie Xiao's tone seemed as if he had been prepared long ago?

Xie Xiao reached out and took Luo Yanran's hand, giving her a smile.

Luo Yanran felt a sense of relief, suddenly no longer curious about when he had decided, because it truly seemed unimportant.

After all, as soon as Xie Xiao mentioned marriage, she would not hesitate in the slightest.

The same was true at this moment.

Luo Ming exclaimed, "Before this New Year? That works too? You both are 23, 24. You've been together quite a while."

He looked at the couple in front of him.

He had married off his wife at around the same age.

He hadn't expected this young man to have the same idea as himself.

Not bad, promising.

Luo Ming observed the young couple occasionally making eye contact, their loving gazes unmistakable.

That was them.

From the first time Luo Yanran brought Xie Xiao home, Luo Ming knew that his daughter had fallen for this young man,

His looks and expressions were just like when his wife first brought him home.

Many people said his daughter resembled him, but he could always see his wife's silhouette in her. Stay connected via My Virtual Library Empire

Luo Ming had been worried, worried this young man, still so young, his daughter very attractive.

Liking beauty was instinctive, but could it last?

Yet, they really had stuck together for four or five years.

College graduation was just around the corner.

He had also considered whether it was appropriate to bring Xie Xiao into the company.

Later his wife asked, "When would it be appropriate?"

Right, if they were truly getting married and he joined, what if it was not a good fit?

A divorce?

It had to be now, act if possible, drop out if not.

The suitability here wasn't about whether he could do business.

It was whether he could resist the many temptations of the world.

Luo Ming himself had gone through this age.

It's normal to be attracted by external allure, isn't everyone a normal human being, truly capable of having no desires?

That would be terrifying.

But there must be a moral line.

Luo Ming's own guidelines were his wife and daughter.

He hoped Xie Xiao had them too.

Fortunately, based on his behavior so far, Luo Ming was satisfied.

Xu Hao said that this kid was dependable.

It wasn't an act, it showed through his words and actions.

At this moment, Luo Ming smiled, "I've opened a new real estate project in C city called 'Xiao Luo,' and I've reserved an apartment there for you, consider it a gift for your marriage registration. Whenever you decide to hold the wedding, let me know in advance, I need time to prepare…"

Xie Xiao smiled at Luo Ming, "Thank you, Uncle. We will accept the house, but the wedding, I must arrange it myself."

He turned his face towards the girl next to him. "To marry a princess, one must rely on one's own abilities."

A deep blush appeared on Luo Yanran's face.

Luo Ming raised an eyebrow, "Marrying my daughter won't be easy, you're not going to drag this on for ten or twenty years, are you?"

"That won't be possible, not more than three years," Xie Xiao said confidently, "Uncle, just watch, I definitely will take your treasure from your hands."
