Everyone Wants to Pamper the Lucky Daughter - Chapter 431

Chapter 431: Chapter 429: Father Listening to Qingluo’s_1
“Thank you, Brother Zhan. Qingluo loves pastries the most.”

Lin Qingluo took the food box, and in the moment their eyes met, they both revealed a tacit smile.

The food box was filled with two stacks of silver notes, which Luo Zhan had personally brought as a dividend.

So far, except for Second Uncle Lin, no one else in the Lin family knew about their secret business dealings.

Lin Qingluo didn’t want to keep it a secret from her family, but with so many people and gossip, she didn’t want to give the Empress more excuses to get rid of her.

Some things didn’t need to be known by too many people; it was best to make a fortune quietly.

“Father, I can tell that your health has improved by your voice. You still need to exercise more in your daily life. It’s better to practice your sword skills or do some boxing when you’re free than to stay in the study room all day.”

After receiving the dividend, Lin Qingluo didn’t want to stay long, and before leaving, she sweetly advised her father with a smile like a little adult.

“Alright, Father will listen to Qingluo.”

Lin Xiaoyang’s heart involuntarily trembled from the tenderness of his little daughter.

When his daughter called him “Father” so sweetly, it melted his heart in an instant.

“Little Qingluo, won’t you stay a bit longer? You’re leaving right after taking the pastries? Brother Zhan feels so left out.” Luo Zhan said jokingly, feeling warm at heart.

“Brother Zhan, next time you come, you might not see Qingluo. I’m planning a long trip.”

Lin Qingluo’s eyes sparkled; suddenly remembering her travel plans after her birthday, she purposely told him.

“Oh? Where are you planning to go, Qingluo?”

Luo Zhan was indeed surprised.

Lin Qingluo had her plans already: “First, I’ll go back to Woniu Village, follow the Weishui River downstream. We should not go too far, and will be back before the New Year.”

“Once you have a route, Brother Zhan will arrange for people to meet you along the way. Jufeng Trading Company’s restaurants and inns are all over the Seven Kingdoms. No matter where you go, you’ll be well-fed, well-rested, and have a great time.”

Luo Zhan was happy to hear that, offering her his eager assistance.

“No need to bother, when Qingluo is out, as her father, I’ll naturally arrange everything properly,” Lin Xiaoyang said unhappily.

How dare he steal his lines, asking for trouble!

“Qingluo appreciates Brother Zhan’s kindness, but there’s no need to go to such lengths,” Lin Qingluo also refused with a smile, “I have my two brothers with me, so there’s no need to worry about the journey. As for eating and lodging, I can simply enjoy it with my mouth.”

“That’s right, with Jinxu and the others around, Qingluo won’t be mistreated.”

Lin Xiaoyang was satisfied, stroked his rough stubble, and gave Luo Zhan a smug look.

Luo Zhan chuckled helplessly, his heart full of acid.

The little girl he’d cared for since childhood had found a large family to cherish her, making her feel distant from him now.

This bittersweet feeling was unspeakable.

Lin Qingluo caught a glimpse of the change in his expression, and teased: “Father, Brother Zhan, I won’t bother you with your business dealings. I’ll be going back.”

“Alright, go back. Be careful on the way. Let the servant girl carry the food box for you.”

With an outsider present, Lin Xiaoyang didn’t want his precious daughter to stay any longer, fearing the big bad wolf would take notice.

“Qingluo, take care. We’ll be in touch later.”

Luo Zhan also regained his composure, exchanging a warm smile with her.

“Alright, I will.”

Lin Qingluo nodded with a smile, holding the food box and leaving. After the door curtain blocked the view of the people inside, she glanced unconsciously in the direction of the backyard where the other women were staying.

Xue Ji, huh?

The seventh-ranked killer on the hit list.

A person with a story, indeed!

Little Kingfisher was quite excited recently; why not have it dig up some gossip about her as well!
