Chapter 125 - Second Young Master Of The Luo Family
Chapter 125: Second Young Master Of The Luo Family
Yan Jinyun and Luo Qiu didn’t expect Luo Yikun to be here.
“Second Brother? Why are you here?”
After Luo Qiu asked, she looked over. There was no one beside Luo Yikun.
In other words, he was here alone.
This made Luo Qiu feel very incredulous. In the past, other than at home, Luo Yikun would definitely have a woman by his side.
Luo Yikun didn’t look like someone who would come to a cold drink shop alone. Now, he appeared here alone. Did he come with her?
No, not really. She clearly remembered that Luo Yikun had left the house before her.
Luo Yikun looked at Luo Qiu. “I arranged to meet someone here, but she stood me up.”
After saying that, he turned her gaze to Yan Jinyu and Yan Jinyun again.
Luo Yikun indeed liked beautiful women and was indeed a playboy. It wasn’t a lie that he had feelings for Yan Jinyu and Yan Jinyun. It wasn’t like he had never lowered himself to curry favor for beautiful women before, just like how he had curried favor with Qiu Jian in the underground racing arena back then.
Of course, the premise was that he had to be interested in that beauty.
If it were now, he might not even care if Qiu Jian stood in front of Luo Yikun.
If not for the fact that he would treat a beautiful girl very well when he was interested and abandon her when he was not interested in her any more, he wouldn’t be changing girlfriends every other day.
Luo Yikun was that kind of standard jerk.
Luo Yikun had never denied that either.
However, the reason why he had curry favor with Qiu Jian back then, other than being interested in Qiu Jian, was because he also had the idea that he could borrow the Qiu Family to do things in the capital in the future.
Luo Yikun would have to go to the capital sooner or later. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have rejected inheriting the Luo Family.
However, now that the Qiu Family had clearly offended Yin Jiujin and couldn’t even protect themselves, it was naturally no longer within Luo Yikun’s consideration.
However, although Luo Yikun liked beautiful women and was a jerk, he had one advantage. He was very sensible. Or rather, he was smart enough to know who he could and couldn’t offend.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so interested in Yan Jinyun for so long and not make a move.
The reason why Luo Yikun hadn’t made a move on Yan Jinyun was because the Yan Family still had some influence in North City and Yan Jinyun wasn’t easy to fool. He didn’t want to get into trouble by chasing after her.
Later on, when he saw Yan Jinyu, Luo Yikun clearly had thoughts too. However, he didn’t act rashly. He wanted to see Yin Jiujin’s attitude towards Yan Jinyu first and make sure that it wouldn’t harm him.
However, Yan Jinyu had let him witness such an exciting race unexpectedly.
Luo Yikun was a smart person. Seeing that scene, he knew that even without Yin Jiujin’s backing, Yan Jinyu wasn’t someone he could provoke.
After the race ended, when everyone was settling the mess, Yan Jinyu appeared again and told Qiu Jian and Zhao Yue that she had deliberately made sure that they were seriously injured and not dead. Luo Yikun was even more sure that Yan Jinyu couldn’t be provoked.
Of course, Luo Qiu didn’t believe Luo Yikun.
Luo Yikun had always been the one who stood others up. When had anyone ever stood him up?
However, Luo Qiu couldn’t figure out why Luo Yikun was here alone. She couldn’t figure it out, so she simply stopped thinking about it and turned her attention to Yan Jinyu, who was still sitting there with a faint smile.
She caught a cold and had a high fever repeatedly for nearly two months. She didn’t have the mood to investigate what happened outside. Hence, before this, she only knew that Yan Jinyu had already returned to North City and some rumors about her. Other than that, she didn’t know much about Yan Jinyu.
Of course, she didn’t know what race Luo Yikun was talking about or how she had turned the situation around and seriously injured the other party.
However, after hearing what Luo Yikun said, she could roughly guess what was going on.
As their classmate, she had heard about Zhao Yue being seriously injured and hospitalized in a car accident. It was said that Zhao Yue was sitting in the car of the eldest daughter of the Qiu Family in the capital.
It turned out that the person who had injured them was Yan Jinyu.
Moreover, regardless of whether Yan Jinyu had discovered that Luo Yikun was in the adjacent private room when she came over or if she had discovered it because of her vigilance after sitting down, just based on her driving skills that even Luo Yikun praised, Yan Jinyu was already very amazing.
Luo Yikun was a racing enthusiast. He liked to play, and the place he played the most was the racing arena.
They often organized racing competitions.
“Second Young Master Luo sent me messages twice. The first time was to tell me that Luo Yilin had applied for leave and didn’t go to school. The second time was to tell me that Yun’er wanted to meet Miss Luo here. I wonder what Second Young Master Luo’s intentions are?”
Many things got clear as soon as Yan Jinyu spoke.
Yan Jinyun looked at her, then at Luo Yikun, who was sitting beside Luo Qiu and frowned slightly.
With her intelligence, she quickly figured out the connection.
No wonder Yan Jinyu arrived so timely yesterday. It turned out that she had been keeping an eye on Luo Yilin after receiving Luo Yikun’s reminder. No wonder Yan Jinyu appeared in this cold drink shop. It turned out that she had received Luo Yikun’s message and found out that she and Luo Qiu had agreed to meet here.
“I don’t have any intentions. I just don’t like Luo Yilin and don’t want him to have his way.” Luo Yilin was a hypocrite. Because his grandfather had once wanted him to be the heir of the Luo Family in his will, Luo Yilin had always treated him as a thorn in his side. On the surface, they were brotherly, but behind his back, he had schemed against him countless times.
If he wasn’t… he would have fallen into Luo Yilin’s hands long ago.
Of course, he would not fuss over small matters. After all, he didn’t want to attract too much attention.
Luo Yilin should never have attacked Luo Qiu.
Others didn’t know that Luo Qiu was Yu Yao’s daughter, but he knew that he still owed Yu Yao his life.
Of course, he was only a few months older than Luo Qiu. Someone had told him that he owed Yu Yao his life.
He couldn’t tolerate Luo Yilin targeting Luo Qiu.
Yan Jinyu glanced at Luo Yikun. She didn’t say she believes him, nor did she say that she didn’t believe him. “Is that so?”
She smiled and said, “Then, what’s the purpose of Second Young Master Luo telling me that Yun’er and Miss Luo are meeting here? It can’t be that you don’t like Luo Yilin and don’t want him to get what he wants, right? Luo Yilin is so seriously injured that he can’t even get out of bed now.”
“Of course it’s not because of him.” Luo Yikun smiled and said, “I’m doing this to let Yun… Second Miss Yan and Qiu reached their collaboration.”
“The eldest young master of the Huo Family is in trouble now and can’t even take care of himself. How can he have the spare energy to take care of a small Luo Family? If Qiu agrees to cooperate with Eldest Young Master Huo, she will offend Master Nine. At the same time, she might offend Second Miss Yan and Eldest Miss Yan, especially Eldest Miss Yan.”
“At that time, it’ll be fine if Young Master Huo can take care of it. But if he can’t, what will happen to the Luo Family in North City? Taking a step back, even if Young Master Huo can take care of it, Young Master Huo will have to do his best against Master Nine alone, let alone Eldest Miss Yan.”
“The pros and cons are so obvious. I can see it clearly, but not Qiu. Qiu can only see it clearly when Eldest Miss Yan comes personally.”
“Indeed, I’ve guessed correctly. Look, Eldest Miss Yan only said a few words and Qiu compromised.”
A hint of obscureness quickly flashed through Yan Jinyu’s eyes.
It seemed like she had to investigate Luo Yikun properly.
Before she returned to North City, she had investigated all the top families and members of every family in North City. Naturally, she had also investigated Luo Yikun. This time, because Luo Yilin was keeping an eye on Yan Jinyun, she had investigated the Luo Family in detail.
She had even found out about the Luo Family’s secret, but the Luo Yikun that she found was nothing special.
He was a playboy who liked beautiful women and often changed girlfriends. He didn’t want to do his job properly and didn’t even want to inherit his family business. He would rather be a useless family member.
However, looking at it now, he wasn’t like that.
How could a person who was determined to eat and play have such brains and outlook?
Also, he was so protective of Luo Qiu, his cousin. It was also worth pondering about.
He disliked Luo Yilin so much, but he was so good to Luo Qiu.
It was very likely that he had long known about Luo Qiu’s background.
All these years, even the head of the Luo Family, Luo Wanhong, didn’t know about it. Even she had to spend some effort to find out, but Luo Yikun already knew.
It was obvious that Luo Yikun wasn’t a simple person.
“I didn’t expect that Eldest Miss Yan would personally beat up Luo Yilin and seriously injure him. I also didn’t expect Eldest Miss Yan to be able to find out secrets that even my uncle doesn’t know and even dig out the evidence of Zhang Mei’s crime so clearly.”
Speaking of this, Luo Yikun was a little shocked.
He only knew that Big Aunt’s death was related to Zhang Mei but Yan Jinyu had easily found the evidence which he had failed to find after so many years.
This meant that Yan Jinyu was even more untouchable than he thought.
He was secretly glad that he didn’t show it when he had feelings for her. Otherwise… even if he didn’t end up like Qiu Jian and Zhao Yue, he would definitely be in a lot of trouble.
“I didn’t expect Second Young Master Luo to be so smart and knowledgeable. You’re not just a playboy who likes to play and slack like the others says.”
Luo Yikun was shocked. He looked up and met Yan Jinyu’s smiling eyes.
He thought that she would say something that would shock him even more, but she said slowly, “Oh, I heard that you’re a jerk now.”
“…” Luo Yikun.
“I may be a jerk, but I’m a smart jerk. I will never get myself into trouble.”
“How can you touch the pitch and not be defiled? You might suffer at the hands of a woman one day! Or one day, when you suddenly take a fancy to someone, the other party will ignore you because of your lousy history. You will cry when that time comes,” Luo Qiu suddenly added.
Luo Yikun looked at her and said confidently, “That definitely won’t happen!”
Yan Jinyu glanced at them and then said to Yan Jinyun, “It seems like the collaboration is successful. I still have something on, so I’ll leave first.”
The Qiu Family had brought Qiu Jian here to apologize. Although she had clearly said that she didn’t meet them, she couldn’t guarantee that they wouldn’t pester and cause trouble at the Empire Building. She had to go back and take a look. She didn’t want others to bully Yin Jiujin.
Even though the chances of that happening are almost zero.
Alright, she actually wanted to go meet that Second Miss Qin.
When she was eavesdropping at Elegant Bamboo previously, Min Ting had mentioned the Second Missy of the Qin Family, Qin Bailu, saying that she wanted to apologize on behalf of Qiu Jian…
This time, she followed Qiu Jian and the rest to North City.
What was she doing here?
Accompanying Qiu Jian to apologize to her?
She didn’t think that Qin Bailu and Qiu Jian’s relationship was really that deep. Taking a step back, even if they were like sisters, what did the Qiu Family’s apology have to do with Qin Bailu, the Second Missy of the Qin Family?
Hmph! Don’t think that she couldn’t tell that this was another person who had designs on her fiancé!
