Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All Chapter 1512 - 1260_4

"Oh my, my dear, are you trying to act cute with mom?" Kang Li’s bright eyes were filled with laughter: "Be good now, go back to your room and rest. You have school tomorrow!"

Min Rui’s eyes were moist: "Mom..."

"Yes, yes, mom will always be by your side, watching you grow up, watching you succeed in your careers, watching you all have harmonious marriages and happy families!"

Kang Li couldn’t stop once she started talking, so when Min Rui heard her say, "watching you all have harmonious marriages and happy families," his face blushed as red as a cooked shrimp, and he hurriedly said, "Mom, good night!" Then quickly turned around and left the room.

However, the young man did remember to close the door for Kang Li.

Hearing Kang Li’s laughter coming from the room, Min Rui quickened his steps as he crossed the living room to return to his room.

"Big brother, were you talking to mom in private?"

Upon entering the room, Min Rui heard Ming Han’s voice, which had a declarative tone.

"Yeah."

Min Rui nodded: "It wasn’t in private, I was just casually chatting with mom."

Min Rui made a sound of acknowledgment and then said, "Then why did you come back to the room like you were being chased by a dog? This is..." However, Ming Han didn’t finish his words, as Min Rui threw a chilly glance at him.

With a casual zip-up gesture, Ming Han lay back on the bed peacefully.

The rooms in the courtyard are limited, so Bun, Tangyuan, Min Rui, and Ming Han sleep in the same room. Even Xiao En would stay in the same room when he visits the courtyard.

As for Guoguo, the little girl sleeps with her sister, Ming Wei.

The moonlight outside the window was as clear and cool as water, spreading all over the ground. Bun and Tangyuan were sound asleep, and in the faint moonlight filtering through the curtains, Ming Han whispered to Min Rui: "Brother."

"Speak."

Min Rui’s voice was also very low.

"What did you and mom talk about? Can you tell your little brother a bit?"

"Brother, I fear not telling you, even if I’m not biologically our dad’s child, I only acknowledge our dad as my father. Any other man, the farther away, the better, I will absolutely not recognize him."

Even though Ming Han was already in the second year of middle school, with his sharp mind, he had vaguely guessed something when he first saw Han Bin’s childhood photo. However, he refused to acknowledge any connection with Han Bin. Because of this, he naturally didn’t mention anything to his brother Min Rui or sister Ming Wei.

When rumors about his and Ming Wei’s origins spread in their grade, and when he learned about the child that looked just like Han Bin, whom Han Qian referred to as Han Bin’s illegitimate son, Min Rui found it hard to believe. At the same time, he gained some understanding of his and Ming Wei’s origins.

Especially since their biological mother’s current husband was Han Qian’s father. With just a little thought and connection of the words said by Han Qian and their mother’s actions after "coming back to life," Ming Han simply couldn’t believe there wasn’t something fishy about their origin story.

But does that mean anything?

He only knows that his surname is Luo, acknowledges this as his father’s surname, and recognizes only one father, whose name is Luo Yanqing. This will never change!

Unexpectedly, dad gave him and his sister enough sense of security. Even though the truth about their origins could be verified, his dad stood resolutely behind him and his sister, becoming their strongest support, helping them slap the face of those rumor-spreading classmates.

At that moment, his heart was greatly touched. He didn’t believe dad had no doubts about his and his sister’s origins. After all, dad is such a smart person and a researcher; his brain is not something an average person can match.

Therefore, he guessed that the ever-serious dad actually knew something, but to protect him and his sister, he willingly wore a "green hat."

Thinking of this, Ming Han said again: "Brother, our dad is great, our mom is great too. We will always be dad and mom’s children, don’t you agree?"

Min Rui responded without hesitation: "Yes!" Then he murmured softly: "We will always be dad and mom’s children. Our surname is Luo, you are Luo Minghan, I am Luo Mingrui, we are dad and mom’s children."

"Brother, when I came back this afternoon... I noticed something off about you. Besides, when I was walking into the courtyard, I bumped into Uncle Xiao. To be honest, you now, and Uncle Xiao..."

With such a wicked mother, Min Rui felt it would be better not to have one.

Not because of embarrassment, but because she really was repulsive, harming the father he admired and revered in that way. In his heart, this was unforgivable!

...

Feng Lu had been staying at the Feng family for the past two days and hadn’t returned to the small villa she shared with Han Bin. She was waiting for Father Xiao to give her the compensation. Today was the agreed deadline, and as the sun was setting, she still hadn’t received a call from Father Xiao. Feng Lu gritted her teeth and decided to go to the Xiao Family once more to get the compensation directly from Father Xiao’s hands.

Unexpectedly, just as she exited the living room, Father Xiao and Old Master Feng walked into the courtyard. Seeing this, Feng Lu wore a smile to greet them, though she was actually quite displeased with Father Xiao.

She thought Father Xiao was there to complain.

"Here, this is what you wanted."

Feng Lu was stunned. She stared at the kraft paper bag in Father Xiao’s hand, unable to comprehend it for a moment.

"Not a penny less."

Father Xiao’s expression was calm, but there wasn’t a trace of warmth in his voice. His tone was as tranquil as a still lake. Old Master Feng found it strange and asked Father Xiao: "Old Xiao, what are you doing?"

"Nothing, I just brought what I promised your Lu Lu," said Father Xiao as he moved the kraft paper bag a little closer to Feng Lu.

Seeing this, Feng Lu quickly grabbed it and then ran back to her room. She hadn’t imagined Father Xiao would pull such an act, delivering the compensation directly to her home, entering her family courtyard with her dad and suddenly handing her a thick kraft envelope as they passed.

With the compensation now in hand, Feng Lu was worried that Old Master Feng would find out what she’d done, but she couldn’t worry too much. She needed to go back to her room and count the money. If the amount was wrong, she’d have to demand it back.

Meanwhile, Father Xiao followed Old Master Feng into the study.

"Sit down."

Old Master Feng invited Father Xiao to sit and asked with a smile, "What were you doing that was so mysterious?" They had met at the courtyard, and Old Master Feng was curious why Father Xiao suddenly stopped him, saying there was something private to discuss.

"Did you know your Lu Lu was pregnant before she married Comrade Luo?"

Father Xiao was direct. Seeing Old Master Feng’s shock, he continued, "That child is my eldest son’s."

"Old Xiao..."

"That’s right, that’s exactly what I mean."

Father Xiao’s previous words were subtle, but he believed Old Master Feng could understand. Sure enough, Old Master Feng did understand what he meant. Looking at him, Father Xiao had a stern expression: "Though Feng Lu promised before me and my eldest son that once she received that sum of money, she wouldn’t utter a word about the child’s origins, I cannot trust her."

Old Master Feng remained silent with a dark complexion.
