Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1743: Chapter 1319: No Grudges

So she exposed our family secret in the compound... I couldn’t think of any other way, so I negotiated with her. I said I could go live with her at the Han Family, but she couldn’t run around the compound spreading rumors, and couldn’t bring up our origins in front of you. She must’ve heard about your temper, so she grudgingly agreed to my terms.”

As she said this, Vivi’s eyes slowly filled with tears: ”When Han Qian kept spreading things at school, I was honestly furious, and just couldn’t help getting into a fight with her. The worst time, Min Rui, you know about that.

It was also then that Dad talked to me. He said he already knew you and I weren’t his biological kids, but he said it didn’t matter at all. He said as long as we called him Dad for one more day, we were his children. Unless the day came we didn’t accept him anymore, and then he wouldn’t force it.”

Tears spilled from her eyes, and Vivi’s voice had a hint of sobbing as she stopped at the roadside and looked at Min Rui and Ming Han: ”Big brother, second brother, did you know? That day Dad walked through the entire eighth grade, and right in front of every class destroyed all those rumors. Do you know how I felt?”

I felt Dad was so tall, and I felt so safe... Clearly, Dad was the one who should’ve been hurt the most, yet he acted like nothing happened, giving all his love and kindness to us. After Dad talked to me, I really forced myself not to burst out crying.”

She wiped the tears from her face. Vivi’s damp eyes shone like stars at that moment: ”Dad said whether we’re related by blood isn’t important. What matters is family, and that we’re together.”

Somehow, Ming Han’s eyes had reddened too: ”I’m Dad’s kid, always will be!”

His gaze was determined and serious: ”Today, I told that woman— I only have one set of parents in this life. One’s Luo Yanqing, the other is Kang Li.”

Vivi: ”We’ve always only had one mom and dad.”

Min Rui: ”Actually, I began to suspect my own origins a long time ago. Because of that, I talked to Mom alone. Mom told me not to worry, said Dad wouldn’t ever stop seeing me as his son because I wasn’t his blood. Ever since then, I’ve come to terms with it. No matter what my story is, no matter if it gets exposed some day, no matter what others say, as long as Dad accepts me, then I’m Luo Mingrui. I’m truly his son!”

Ming Han: ”Bro, do you think that Uncle Xiao is your biological father?”

”Yeah.”

Min Rui nodded: ”Sure, there are plenty of people in the world who look alike but have no relation. But I look like him, and every time I meet him, I get this indescribable feeling. I don’t think that’s just coincidence.

After you and Vivi had your own family drama, I got even more sure there must be some connection. But since no one ever brings up my origins, I’ll just pretend I don’t know, and there’s really no point worrying about it. Life goes on as usual. That’s what Mom wants to see, so of course I won’t disappoint her.”

”Looks like we’re all pretty chill about this. Big brother, second brother, I’m really happy. No matter what anyone else says in the future, as long as we stay strong in our hearts, no one will ever be able to shake us.”

Vivi beamed, kept walking toward home, and waved for Min Rui and Ming Han to hurry: ”Big brother, second brother, hurry up! I’m starving!”

”With your tiny legs, are you sure you can keep up if big brother and I pick up the pace?”

With a couple quick steps, Ming Han and Min Rui had already caught up to Vivi.

”Big brother! Help me teach second brother a lesson, he’s bullying your favorite little sister!”

Vivi caught up to Min Rui, looped her arm through his, and spoke sweetly.

Before Min Rui could say anything, Ming Han blurted out, ”Ugh! Ugh!” twice, then said, ”Luo Mingwei, you’ve got some thick skin. In big brother and my eyes, our favorite little sister is Xiao Guoguo. If you had any self-awareness, you’d step aside right now!”

”Why should I step aside? Xiao Guoguo is my favorite little sister too, and actually, she likes her big sister best out of everyone in the family. When we get home, I’m gonna complain to her and have her put you in your place!”

As Vivi spoke, she shot Ming Han a smug look.

”Xiao Guoguo’s smart as can be, and she’s the fairest of us all. She won’t take your nonsense and scold me, her favorite second brother, instead.”

He thought of their little sister, face drawn stern, hands on her hips, saying: ”Second brother, you’re bad! You’re the brother, you can’t bully your sister. You need to love and protect your sister, okay? Second brother!”

Every time, he just found her so impossibly cute.

”Well, let’s just wait and see then.”

Vivi huffed proudly.
