Chapter 337 -336: You’re Actually My Cousin

Luo Ning arrived at the prearranged café and went into the private room ahead of time.

Just as he took out his phone to scroll through, Luo Ying also arrived, arriving early as well.

She walked into the room, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Luo Ning.

“Brother Ning, sorry to have kept you waiting,” she said, not expecting Luo Ning to be even earlier than her.

Luo Ning smiled and replied, “I’ve just arrived too.”

She asked with a smile, “What do you like to drink?”

She could tell that Luo Ying was a bit nervous, so she started the conversation with the simplest of topics.

Luo Ying sat down, leaned in to look at the menu with Luo Ning, and then chose her favorite drinks and desserts.

It also helped her to gradually relax.

The two chatted leisurely over coffee, talking about variety shows, game streaming, and then moved on to various Feng Shui questions.

Luo Ning also helped Luo Ying clear up quite a few doubts about Feng Shui.

After listening to Luo Ning’s explanations, Luo Ying looked at him with admiration and said, “Brother Ning, you really are incredible.”

She then asked curiously, “Are you also from a Fengshui Family?”

Otherwise, how could he be much more impressive than the so-called young leader of their Luo Family?

Luo Ning laughed and replied, “I’m not from any Fengshui Family, but I learned Feng Shui Xuan Shu from my father since I was a child. I also have a deep interest in it, so I kept exploring and researching on my own.”

“Your father must be very impressive. I would really love to meet him if I have the chance,” Luo Ying was quite open about her feelings in front of Luo Ning.

Hearing her words, a shadow passed over Luo Ning’s eyes, and he sighed, “I don’t know if there will be such an opportunity; my dad suddenly disappeared a few years ago and I haven’t heard anything since.”

“Ah!” Luo Ying said apologetically, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bring up something that would upset you.”

Luo Ning shook his head, unconcerned, “It’s okay, it’s no secret.”

The more they interacted, the more Luo Ying liked Luo Ning. Seeing him as her idol, she naturally wanted to offer her help.

“Brother Ning, if you don’t mind, you can tell me about your dad’s situation.”

She added, “Your dad is a respected Feng Shui Master, and I come from a family of Feng Shui Masters. I’m in contact with many people in the same circle, so maybe I can help you ask around to see if there’s any news about your dad.”

A grateful smile appeared on Luo Ning’s face, “That would be great, though I hate to trouble you.”

Luo Ying waved her hand nonchalantly, “No trouble at all, it’s a small matter.”

Of course, she wasn’t usually this kind-hearted—the people she decided to help mattered.

Luo Ning did not hide anything, “My dad’s name is Luo Yicheng, and he’s from Nanhai City.”

Upon hearing this, Luo Ying’s eyes widened, “What? Your dad’s name is Luo Yicheng?”

Luo Ning nodded: “Yes! What’s wrong?”

A bold guess suddenly occurred to Luo Ying, “Do you have a photo of your dad?”

Luo Ning pulled out his phone, found a photo he had taken with his dad, and handed it over, “Yes, here you go. Feel free to look through them.”

Luo Ying took the phone and looked intently at the person in the photo, then scrolled down. There were solo photos of Luo Yicheng, as well as group photos with the family.

She widened her eyes, displaying an incredulous look.

“What’s wrong? You know my dad?” Luo Ning was now thoroughly convinced that her own father was indeed Luo Yicheng from the Luo Family.

Luo Ying couldn’t conceal her shock and looked up at Luo Ning, admitting truthfully, “Not only do I know your dad, but I’m also his niece.”

Luo Ning also showed a surprised expression, “Ah! You’re my dad’s niece?”

“Yes, the person in the photo is my uncle Luo Yicheng.”

Luo Ying couldn’t help herself and excitedly grabbed Luo Ning’s hand, “I would have never guessed, Brother Ning, that you are actually my cousin.”

She didn’t doubt what Luo Ning had said, because she could confirm that the person in the photo was indeed her uncle.

No wonder she took a liking to Luo Ning the first time she saw her on a variety show.

The closer she got, the more familiar she felt, realizing that aside from a fan’s adoration for an idol, there was also a connection of blood and kinship.

“I still carry a token from my dad; take a look to be certain,” Luo Ning said as she took out the compass her father had left her.

Luo Ying, although not an expert in Feng Shui, could still distinguish certain energies.

She took the compass and looked at it closely, sensing a familiar energy, “This is indeed something my uncle has used.”

Luo Ning’s usually calm heart couldn’t help but flutter, “Yingying, can you tell me if my dad is alright now?”

“He disappeared several years ago, and we’ve been very worried about his safety since then,” she said sincerely.

Luo Ying continued to hold her hand, comforting her, “Brother Ning, you don’t need to worry, uncle is safe. He’s on the family’s island at the Luo family’s main house.”

Luo Ning asked with confusion, “Then why hasn’t he come home for all these years, or even sent us any message?”

Luo Ying sighed, “Brother Ning, don’t blame uncle for this, he’s simply unable to leave the island, and all communication devices are useless there; that’s why he hasn’t been able to contact you.”

Luo Ning urgently asked, “Why can’t he leave the island, and why don’t communication devices work?”

“Could it be that on your family’s island, communication devices don’t work?”

This didn’t seem to make sense—if communication devices couldn’t be used on the island, how did the Luo family communicate with the outside world?

Luo Ying shook her head, “That’s not it, communication devices do work on the island, it’s just uncle who can’t use them.”

She didn’t hide the truth and went on, “Several years ago, uncle was injured at sea and was coincidentally found by members of the main family, who forcibly brought him back to the island.”

“Over twenty years ago, uncle was temporarily stripped of his heir status due to some issues. He resisted the family’s arrangements and secretly left home.”

“After being brought back to the island, the family didn’t allow him to leave again, wanting him to agree to the matters of twenty years ago and then restore his position as the heir.”

“But uncle stubbornly refused to agree and even angered my grandmother, then was cast into the family’s Forbidden Land by my grandfather for reflection and penance.”

“That place is a Forbidden Land set up by the Luo family ancestors; all communication devices fail there, and only two methods exist for leaving.”

“First, my grandfather must open the Forbidden Land willingly; second, uncle must cultivate to the Heavenly Human Unity Realm and break the prohibitions himself to leave.”

Luo Ying shared with a sense of helplessness, “For the first option, it seems my grandfather is dead serious this time. If uncle doesn’t admit his mistake and agree to my grandmother’s demands, grandfather definitely won’t let him out.”

“The second option is even more difficult. Since the Luo family’s ancient ancestor passed into meditation a hundred years ago, not only has the Luo family not produced a Feng Shui Master who has reached the Heavenly Human Unity Realm but neither has any other Ancient Fengshui Family.”

“I’ve heard from my mother that after uncle left home, he married an outsider and even had a child, which infuriated my grandparents and even caused my grandmother to fall ill.”

She looked at Luo Ning excitedly and said, “I truly never imagined, Brother Ning, that you are actually the daughter my uncle had outside. We really are so fated!”
