Chapter 1176 - 582: Secret Struggles? Complicated Feelings

Sponsored

Watching Ji Bing turn her head to the side.

Her face full of complicated emotions.

Luo Fei also looked at her with a bit of amusement.

Ji Bing hurriedly explained.

"It’s nothing like that, Mr. Luo. I’m mad at myself. I’m torn up over the fact that I didn’t realize the danger in advance, didn’t prepare ahead of time, didn’t protect Lu Xiaoxue properly."

Ji Bing’s tone was loaded with complex feelings.

That made Luo Fei pick up a few hints.

He also guessed.

Maybe Ji Bing had been through something, that’s why she’s so sensitive to this kind of incident.

He still kept a calm, unreadable expression on the surface.

Ring ring ring!

Just then.

Luo Fei’s phone rang.

He picked it up.

A familiar voice came from the other end.

"Mr. Luo, if it’s possible, I’d like to talk to you. I just don’t know if it’s convenient?"

Hearing that it was Su Jianfan’s mother.

Luo Fei was a bit surprised.

"Sister Song, are you calling because you need something from me?"

"Mr. Luo, I know you’re investigating Zheng Guorong, and he did some shady things back in Mountain City. Now that we’ve already parted ways and he doesn’t care about me anymore, I think it’s time to bring those things out into the open."

He could hear she was a bit agitated, like it took a huge amount of resolve for her to finally say this.

Which made Luo Fei somewhat surprised.

"Sister, it’s not that I can’t understand how you feel. But why did you suddenly decide to do this?"

Of course Luo Fei understood, as Zheng Guorong’s woman in his bed.

Sister Song had known about these things for way more than a day or two.

But she chose this moment to confess them to Luo Fei.

That did catch him off guard.

Hearing that Luo Fei sounded a bit puzzled.

Sister Song patiently explained.

"Mr. Luo, I know when I say this, you might not really want to believe it."

"But in fact, whatever I do, it’s all actually for Su Jianfan."

So, Sister used to think.

Even though Zheng Guorong is scum, at least he was trying hard to pave the way for their son.

For the sake of her son, that kind of counted as a good thing.

If Su Jianfan could rise high, climb step by step and become more and more outstanding, that seemed like a good thing too.

"But later I realized that Zheng Guorong’s influence on his son was subtle and creeping. He’s not nearly as selfless as he makes himself out to be."

"But my son and I had no way to completely cut him off. Especially with him constantly trying to control Su Jianfan, I was even less able to just up and leave, walk away clean."

Listening to her, she sounded really stuck.

Luo Fei immediately understood.

"Sister, I get what you mean. You feel Zheng Guorong is disgusting, but you and your son have no way to shake him off in the short term."

"So you’ve been swallowing your pride, putting up with it all this time."

That was how Luo Fei put it.

And Sister didn’t exactly deny it.

"Yes, Mr. Luo, I actually had concerns before. I thought that if I told you the truth, it might affect me and my son. Especially Su Jianfan, he’s been a good person since he was little. A kind and upright child. I want him to grow up strong, and someday become more and more outstanding. To become a better version of himself."

"And now, because you’re by his side, I believe he definitely will become more outstanding. That way, I can truly set my mind at ease."

As she spoke, her tone carried a sense of relief.

In that moment.

Luo Fei finally understood.

To her, he could be Su Jianfan’s guide.

It was exactly because he was there.

She no longer had reservations.

No longer worried.

That her son might be led astray by Zheng Guorong.

So she could finally let go of the burden.

Right then, Luo Fei also smiled and reassured her.

"Sister, I understand what you mean now. Let’s meet later."

After hanging up.

Luo Fei told Ji Bing what had happened.

But after hearing Sister’s whole speech.

Ji Bing couldn’t help letting out a cold laugh.

"Heh, that Sister sure knows how to give herself excuses. Saying everything is for her son’s sake. I don’t buy for a second that she doesn’t have other aims."

Ji Bing was completely serious, her face full of focus.

That even made He Jiayun next to them a little shocked.

"Sister Ji, you mean this woman actually has another agenda, and she isn’t as concerned about her son’s feelings as she looks on the surface?"

"Of course. I’m sure she has other motives, or you could say another purpose. We just don’t know what it is yet."

Luo Fei was also very certain. Even though Sister Song’s words sounded very pretty, whether she herself is actually as innocent as she claims is another matter entirely.

...

"Mr. Luo, we’re here."

After a while.

Luo Fei and his people arrived at the barbecue stall.

Seeing Luo Fei and the others get out of the car.

Jin Hongwen hurried over.

Before anyone could react, he had already dropped to his knees in broad daylight and knocked his head to the ground three times for Luo Fei.

That move.

Really did leave Luo Fei a bit stunned.

His heart filled with surprise.

"Boss Jin, what are you doing?"

"It’s not a festival or anything, don’t just throw around such big gestures. I don’t want to shave any years off my life."

Seeing the man’s confusion.

Jin Hongwen spoke excitedly.

"Mr. Luo, no matter what, I hope you’ll allow me to express my heartfelt gratitude to you."

"Because if it weren’t for you, who knows when my daughter and I would have been able to reunite."
