The Hunter’s Lucky Little Lady - Chapter 173
173 Conflict
When Luo Cheng ran back from somewhere for breakfast, he felt that the atmosphere at home was strange.
His mother-in-law was all smiles and even picked up food for him from time to time.
On the other hand, although his father-in-law was expressionless, he looked a little awkward.
!!
Luo Cheng was a little baffled. He felt that something had happened while he was away.
After eating breakfast in awkwardness, Luo Cheng called Li Xiaoran aside.
“Wife, don’t you think your parents are acting a little strange today?”
When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she immediately said gloomily, “You felt it?”
“Yes! Your parents are acting so strange. I’d be stupid not to feel it!” Luo Cheng replied.
Li Xiaoran thought of what had happened today and rolled her eyes at Luo Cheng. She told him about how she had walked out of his room in the morning and bumped into Zhao Xiu, who misunderstood.
“At that time, the way my mother looked at me made me panic. I couldn’t explain myself! It’s all your fault!” Li Xiaoran said angrily.
If Luo Cheng hadn’t shamelessly left her in his room yesterday, her mother wouldn’t have misunderstood this morning!
When Luo Cheng heard this, he laughed.
“Since Father-in-law and Mother-in-law know, let’s not hide anymore! Anyway, we’re husband and wife. There’s also a marriage certificate. You’re my legal wife, so it’s only right for us to live together!” Luo Cheng tried his best to calm down and not let his smile show as he asked her to let the two of them start sleeping together.
When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she laughed angrily.
“Legal? Then why haven’t I seen a matchmaker visit?”
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he suddenly fell silent.
He was indeed at a disadvantage.
From the beginning until now, he owed Li Xiaoran a lot.
Li Xiaoran didn’t have any of the formal marriage procedures and formalities that others had when they married.
When Li Xiaoran saw the silent Luo Cheng, for some reason, she suddenly felt a little suffocated.
“If you have nothing else, I’ll go to the shop first!”
With that, Li Xiaoran turned around and left.
At this moment, Li Xiaoran was flustered. She didn’t know how to face Luo Cheng, so she could only leave to calm herself down.
Luo Cheng stood there and watched Li Xiaoran leave without saying a word.
Just like that, the two of them suddenly fell out.
On the way to the shop, Li Xiaoran was very depressed.
To be honest, she actually didn’t mind getting married to him officially.
However, when her marriage was mentioned, she felt a little sad.
Yes, she had some feelings for Luo Cheng now, but they were limited.
She could accept Luo Cheng’s intimacy and feelings. She could even snuggle up to him at night, but she was still not prepared to give herself to him.
Right. She didn’t think their relationship had reached that stage yet.
Therefore, she instinctively resisted Luo Cheng’s invitation for her to stay in his room.
After Li Xiaoran left, Luo Cheng’s expression was uncertain. No one knew what he was thinking.
After a while, Luo Cheng said something to Luo Ziyang and left.
Luo Cheng didn’t explain where he was going or how long he would be gone. He only said that he had something to do.
On the other side, Guan Dongshan, who had finally woken up, sat in the courtyard and thought for a long time. In the end, he got up and said something to his wife, He Hui, before going to Luo Cheng’s house.
However, he was a step late. Luo Cheng left before he arrived.
Only Luo Ziyang was left in the Luo family.
“When can Luo Cheng come back?” Guan Dongshan asked again.
“He didn’t tell me! Uncle Guan, is there anything urgent? If it’s urgent, you can tell me!” Luo Ziyang looked at Guan Dongshan and said.
Guan Dongshan shook his head. He planned to wait until Luo Cheng returned.
“Then I’ll come back tomorrow!”
Seeing this, Luo Ziyang didn’t force him. Then, he sent Guan Dongshan off.
By now, most of the trees in the orchard had been dug up. There were a few left.
After digging these trees, Luo Ziyang wouldn’t have to stay at home anymore. He could go to the shop to help.
Li Xiaoran wasn’t in the mood to do anything today. Several times, she touched the hot pot and burned the back of her hand.
“Are you torturing yourself? If you’re not feeling well, go home and rest. Don’t hurt yourself!” When Zhao Xiu saw her daughter’s distracted look, she thought that this child was too tired after having sex with her son-in-law yesterday. She quickly came forward to take over the cooking of the noodles.
Li Xiaoran didn’t explain and took this opportunity to go out for a breather.
After walking out of the shop, Li Xiaoran felt much better and heaved a sigh of relief.
Unknowingly, Li Xiaoran arrived near the land where the house was built.
Coincidentally, Old Madam Jin was also checking on the construction of the house. When she saw Li Xiaoran nearby, she walked out.
“Why aren’t you cooking noodles in the shop? Why are you here?”
“I came out to relax. I’m tired from cooking noodles!” Li Xiaoran said with a smile.
When Old Madam Jin saw Li Xiaoran like this, she walked over and pulled Li Xiaoran to a big rock on the other side.
Seeing this, the woman behind her quickly brought the thick cotton mat she carried and placed it on the big rock.
Old Madam Jin pulled Li Xiaoran to sit down.
After that, the maidservant beside Old Madam Jin stood outside and guarded.
“What’s wrong with them?” Li Xiaoran looked at the people around her and asked in confusion.
“I used to like to sit here and look at the scenery, and I don’t like to be disturbed. After the servants learned about my habits, they know what to do!” Old Madam Jin glanced at Li Xiaoran and said with a smile.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately understood.
“Little girl, are you unhappy?” Old Madam Jin looked at Li Xiaoran with affection and asked with a smile.
“How did you know?” Li Xiaoran asked in surprise.
One had to know that she was actually trying very hard to restrain her emotions.
“Don’t forget that I grew up as a little girl and became old!” Old Madam Jin teased.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she smiled.
“You’re not old at all. You’re still young!”
“You’re such a sweet talker. You know how to make me happy!” Old Madam Jin said happily, “Tell me, what’s there to be sad about? Tell me. Perhaps I can help you! After all, I’m much older than a little girl like you!”
