Chapter 461 - 461 Ruby Pendant.



Luo Baiyun sighed as he saw Luo Lixi\'s pink face. He shook his head and said, "You better tell me your decision." 

Luo Lixi scratched her ear and peeked at the washer door. Then, she straightened up and whispered, "I think… I can get married now…" 

Hearing her, Luo Baiyun sighed again but the man who was inside the washroom could no longer stop his smile. He put his forehead against the door and closed his eyes. 

"A marriage proposal came from Ming city." Luo Baiyun said and stared at Luo Lixi\'s face. 

As expected, she was surprised and asked, "Marriage proposal? Could it be…"

"Yes, it was from the Sheng family." The old man nodded with a pained heart. He knew that his daughter, who was reborn like him, liked someone. 

When she was abroad, he felt that she still belonged to him but if she gets married… his heart began to feel restless. Then a sudden thought came into his mind and Luo Baiyun asked deeply. 

"Did you have any children in that life?"

Both Sheng Ruming and Luo Lixi became silent. One became confused while the other one felt like jumping into a hole with her father. 

"Ah, hahaha! Baba, did you mean \'How many children I want to have in this life?\' by that?! Well, I will have three, I guess." Luo Lixi\'s eyes twisted when she realised what she had said. 

Looking at her situation, Luo Baiyun realized something was wrong. He glanced around the room sharply and inquired.

"Are there other people here?" 

"Ah, no! How can there be… Cough!" Luo Lixi frowned and feigned a cough. "Baba, I am hungry. Why don\'t we go down to eat?" 

She blinked her eyes and asked with a sweet smile. Luo Baiyun had more questions to ask as his doubt got stronger. But looking at her face, he couldn\'t let her go hungry.

"Fine. Let\'s go then." Luo Baiyun stood up while saying. Luo Lixi smiled and followed him outside. 

While going out, she glanced back at the washroom door and thought with uncertainty, \'Did he hear those words? I hope he won\'t have any weird thoughts about us…\'

Luo Lixi closed the door and left. Sheng Ruming opened the door a little and stared at the door sharply. "Why didn\'t she say yes?"

Contrary to her thoughts, Sheng Ruming\'s attention was somewhere else. He glanced towards the windows and then sneaked out. 

\'Are they even guard?\' Sheng Ruming thought disdainfully as he sneaked around the mansion. 

He left via the secret road Xiao Huang had found out after a lot of investigation. Only then he reckoned that his hacker team was still working. 

"What are these?!" Luo Lixi exclaimed when she saw many boxes in the living room. In them, she saw some familiar ones and had a guess. 

Madam Tang walked beside her. She glanced at those things with displeasure and turned to Luo Lixi. 

"Someone knew of your arrival and sent gifts but who would send expensive jade Bengals, bracelets as gifts?! I asked them to leave with these yet they ran away." 

"..." Luo Lixi was speechless by her grandma\'s words. She walked ahead and saw some opened jewellery boxes. Among them, a cute looking box was unopened and she picked it up. 

As soon as she opened it, she saw a familiar piece of jewellery in it. The ruby was beautiful in itself and the gold chain was good too. She subconsciously touched her neck and felt it was empty. 

\'Where did it go…\' However, Luo Lixi stopped her tracks as her eyes fell on the chain. 

In the past years, she had hidden the ruby pendant under her cloth so that nobody would find out about it. After all, it was too unusual and she didn\'t want to lose it. 

\'Did that vanish because of it?\' Luo Lixi thought as she eyed the chain. Even though the chain was different, the pendant was the same thing. 

Luo Lixi picked it up and wore it around her neck. Then, her eyes got stuck to the little paper which revealed itself after she took the chain. 

[My mother gave the ruby pendant to me. It is an heirloom from my great maternal grandmother. She said to give it to someone I like. If you wear it, then it means you are mine...]

Luo Lixi\'s eyes froze when she finished reading the content. She touched the chain gently and thought with amusement, \'Back then, I thought you had bought this… Turns out it isn\'t.\' 

As she was in her world of thoughts, Madam Tang moved beside her. Luo Lixi swiftly hid the paper and turned to her. 

"Grandma~ I am hungry~" Luo Lixi pouted and then turned to Madam Tang. She took the corner of her shawl and fiddled with it. 

"Look at you. Such a big child yet plays with my shawl like a baby." Madam Tang chuckled from ear to ear and rubbed her head. She brought Luo Lixi to the dining table and sat her down. 

"You sit too. Let\'s eat together." Luo Lixi told excitedly even though she was feeling bloated for some reason. 

Luo Baiyun was left behind and saw his mother putting all the best things on his daughter\'s plates. He smiled and walked ahead. 

While Luo Lixi and Luo Baiyun started putting something in their mouths, Zhao Yichen came. Looking at the good child, Luo Baiyun felt sad again. He turned to Luo Lixi and asked. 

"You didn\'t say yes to that proposal. Why don\'t you reconsider? Going to another city to live… Can you… Ah! Forget it! You have been living abroad all these years…"

"Cough! Cough!" Luo Lixi choked on her food by his words. Sun Xumei came from the kitchen with Luo Lixi\'s favourite dumplings and put them aside. 

"Careful, why do you eat rashly?!" Sun Xumei chided her as Luo Lixi drank water. Her accusing eyes fell on Luo Baiyun and Sun Xumei saw this.. Then, she had a guess and smiled deeply.
