Chapter 123 - 123 Senior Brother’s Worry
“Our master isn’t very reliable, so we can only take care of her. It’s fine to call her our little sister, but it’s not an exaggeration to say that she’s our child because the three of us fed her little by little.” Luo Bing’s tone carried a hint of imperceptible pride.
Chen Hai nodded. “Bei Shuo still looks a little silly now!”
Luo Bing glared at him.
“But she’s very cute,” Chen Hai quickly added.
As the saying went, one could scold their own child, but others could not. They could not say a single bad word. They could only praise him and not repeat him.
To a certain extent, Luo Bing and Mu Ci had the same character.
“What about the Shen Family? Everyone knows that you are the Eldest Young Master of the Shen Family now. You have worked so hard to hide your identity for so many years. Because of the child that you raised, everything has been exposed. No, you expected this outcome before you brought her back to the Shen Family, right?” Chen Hai suddenly understood and looked at Luo Bing.
Luo Bing did not say anything.
“You… Don’t tell me you agreed to some overboard request from Old Master and Old Madam?” Chen Hai probed.
Luo Bing remained silent.
Chen Hai slapped his thigh. “Alright! Brother Luo, you’re really Bei Shuo’s biological brother. Are you selling yourself for Bei Shuo’s happiness?”
Luo Bing frowned and glared at Chen Hai.
“Tsk tsk! Are the old couple overjoyed? What did they ask you to promise them? Not only did they pick up a cute granddaughter for free, but they can also get back at their grandson. This deal… Speaking of which, what did you promise them? To get married? To give birth to a great-grandson for them to hug and play with within a year?”
Luo Bing felt his teeth aching. “You have such a big imagination. Why don’t you just write a screenplay?”
“The screenwriting team has always welcomed me. I’m their supernumerary member!” Chen Hai said without any modesty.
“What are the conditions?” Chen Hai pursued relentlessly.
“Go home often,” Luo Bing said calmly.
“Uh—” Chen Hai was stunned.
“Eat with them, play chess, and play ball,” Luo Bing added.
Chen Hai looked at Luo Bing and blinked. “Then, you suddenly realized that they’re old and you’re a jerk? So you’re a little depressed?”
Luo Bing glared at him and said word by word, “Will you die if you don’t speak?”
Chen Hai moved closer to her with his chair. “Did I guess correctly? I really guessed correctly, didn’t I?”
Luo Bing turned his head away and ignored him.
Chen Hai sniggered. “The Shen Family’s grandpa and grandma are indeed impressive. They’re using the emotional card to beat their eldest grandson. It’s practically a 100% hit rate. This time, it looks like they’re doing it for Bei Shuo, but in reality, they’re the biggest winners. Amazing! I have to learn from them!”
Luo Bing leaned against the chair and said softly, “My sister is pregnant.”
Chen Hai was stunned and instinctively said, “That’s a good thing! If Sister Shen Bai doesn’t give birth soon, she’ll become an elderly parturient woman.”
“It counts now. So, my brother-in-law wants her to reduce her workload. He asked me if I could help her. My sister won’t be at ease if she hands the company over to someone else. It’s even more unfavorable for the pregnancy,” Luo Bing said with his head raised.
Chen Hai muttered, “You have to help with this. That’s your biological sister. You’re the child’s biological uncle! If you don’t help, are you still human?”
Luo Bing stopped talking.
Chen Hai thought about it and smiled bitterly. “Luo Bing, your family has already discussed this. They’re just waiting for an opportunity so that they can put these shackles around your neck. Whether Bei Shuo is involved or not, you won’t be able to escape this, right? You’re surrounded!”
Luo Bing sighed softly and wiped her face. “If you have the ability, don’t end up like me!”
Chen Hai lay back in his chair. “I won’t. I won’t fall for it! Don’t even think about kidnapping me with familial ties! No one is allowed!”
Luo Bing sat up straight and looked at him teasingly. “Alright, I’ll remember it. When you go back, I’ll help Uncle Chen release fireworks in front of the Chen Family’s residence. 10,000 of them!”
“Scram!” Chen Hai cursed angrily.
It was Luo Bing’s turn to laugh.
Chen Hai found it funny when he thought about it.
The two of them burst into laughter.
When the two of them gradually stopped laughing, Chen Hai said, “You’ve noticed it long ago. So, you’re also using Bei Shuo’s matter to give them an out?”
Luo Bing shook her head. “Bei Shuo was an accident, but I do want the Shen Family to be her backer. The Mu Family is too chaotic. Even if Mu Ci protects her, it won’t work. Only if her maternal family is powerful enough can we shut up the people who want to bully her in the Mu Family.”
