Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 752: Chapter 453: Lending a Hand

Under the expectant gaze of Director Wang and Sister Liu Feng, and with Li Yushan feeling nervous, Ye’er smiled faintly: ”My dad is Luo Zhenggang, Luo Ping’s dad and my dad are close brothers.”

”Luo... Luo Zhenggang?” Director Wang repeated the name, his face changing color swiftly, looking at Luo Ping with sheer disbelief. With such a profound background, she willingly and diligently works as a low-level employee—whether it’s the Secretary’s arrangement or her own choice?

Sister Liu Feng muttered to herself and suddenly realized: ”Your dad is the Secretary of the Municipal Committee of our Island City?”

”Yes.” Ye’er nodded, then explained, ”However, everything Sister Ping has achieved is all thanks to her own hard work; my dad hasn’t helped her in the slightest.”

”No wonder...” Sister Liu Feng looked up and down at the visibly nervous Li Yushan, ”No wonder this aunt is desperately trying to drag Sister Ping back home to be her daughter-in-law. With this background, if one isn’t moved, it truly wouldn’t be you.” Saying this, she whispered a few words into Ye’er’s ear.

Ye’er’s face darkened abruptly, staring coldly at Li Yushan and snorted, then looking at Luo Ping: ”Sister, let’s go home.”

Luo Feng grabbed Ye’er, pointing at Li Yushan: ”What did she do?”

”Xiao Feng, it’s nothing.” Luo Ping looked at him pleadingly, ”If it’s truly for my well-being, don’t ask, okay?”

Seeing Luo Feng furrow his eyebrows, Ye’er tugged at his sleeve: ”Brother, let’s go.”

”Young Master Luo, Miss Luo...” Li Yushan hurriedly spoke, ”I mean no harm, I am also thinking about the future happiness of Xiao Ping and Dongdong.”

Director Wang stepped forward: ”Let’s keep this matter contained among us. I swear, I absolutely won’t speak of it.”

”I definitely won’t spread it either.” Sister Liu Feng said.

”I... I won’t talk about it either.” Li Yushan nervously looked at Ye’er and Luo Feng’s expressions, feeling incredibly frustrated. How did she end up being caught by this brother and sister duo?

Her actions today stemmed from the fact that her son had previously had Luo Ping wrapped around his finger. Given Luo Ping’s somewhat timid and conservative nature, revealing this to her would likely intimidate her enough to reconsider getting back together with her son.

Who would’ve thought, the current Luo Ping is completely different from before, not at all swayed by her, ending up with the worst results instead.

With the Luo Family’s background, even a little finger is sturdier than her family’s waist. If the brother and sister return home and mention anything, can the Qi Family still fare well?

”Let’s go.” Based on everyone’s expressions and words, Luo Feng could guess the general situation; he certainly didn’t wish to debate publicly over such matters.

”Liu Feng, I’m sorry I won’t be able to accompany you shopping today.” Even as she was leaving, Luo Ping didn’t forget to express her apologies to Sister Liu Feng.

”Silly girl, why are you still dwelling on this?” Sister Liu Feng laughed and gently patted her head, ”Oh, what can I say about you? Ah!”

Ye’er thought for a moment, looking at her: ”Sister Liu Feng, where do you live?”

Sister Liu Feng pointed at the bus sign: ”There’s a 363 route bus ahead, three stops to my home. Thank you for your concern, Miss Luo.”

”No need to be so polite, we’ll give you a ride, it’s on the way.”

”No need, that would be too much trouble.”

”Hop in.” Ye’er smiled and stepped forward to pull her, ”Do you think I’m being formally polite? It really is convenient for us.”

”Then thank you.” Sister Liu Feng laughed awkwardly, ”Seeing the young master and lady of the Secretary’s house suddenly, I’ve become a bit confused.”

Ye’er gave her a gentle push into the car, teasingly: ”What young master and lady, you’re speaking too much as an outsider.”

”Goodbye, Young Master Luo and Miss Luo!” Director Wang waved ingratiatingly with a smile.

The brother and sister waved back at him with smiles and got into the car.

People like him are not something Ye’er and Luo Feng would worry about. Even if he previously managed Luo Ping’s work poorly, it doesn’t matter; working more when young is not a bad thing.

In government units, it’s often like this; newcomers without backgrounds end up doing the grunt work. Fixing such a phenomenon isn’t something a few words can address.

Without strong backing after Li Yushan’s scenario, survival in the workplace for Luo Ping would be impossible; it’s also why Ye’er chose to reveal Luo Ping’s background now. Another significant reason is Luo Ping’s actions have earned recognition from the Luo Family during this period.

Seeing Luo Ping’s red-rimmed eyes, Ye’er couldn’t help but sigh and pull her into a comforting embrace: ”Sister Ping, if you want to cry, just let it out.”

Luo Ping looked at her earnestly, ”It’s not because Li Yushan said things that make me want to cry, but for the way Ye’er and Xiao Feng acted just now, and the concern from Uncle and Aunt, I am truly moved...”
