Chapter 340 -339: She Doesn’t Mind Stepping In
Lu Xun already had a general understanding of the Luo Family and knew what she had to do next.
She asked, “Are you all out here for experiential training?”
Luo Ying nodded, “Primarily it’s Luo Yuefeng undergoing the training; the rest of us are just accompanying her.”
Luo Ning then asked, “What’s the use of such training?”
Luo Ying replied, “If Luo Yuefeng can complete the training tasks set by the family and become a favored guest among Xiang Island’s tycoons, then upon returning, the family will open up the inheritance ground for her and fully acknowledge her position and identity within the Luo Family.”
“Letting her inherit some of the family’s Feng Shui Mystical Technique secrets and take over some of the important enterprises within the clan.”
She then shifted the subject, “But no matter how talented she is, she cannot inherit from the Luo Family, since, even though adopted, she’s not of pure Luo Family blood.”
“That’s why Grandma decided to let her younger uncle marry the Eldest Aunt and have a child of the direct lineage from the main house, to heavily train for the future inheritance of the family business.”
Luo Ning was quite speechless about these feudalistic old ideas, “I can’t understand their way of thinking.”
And she didn’t want to understand it; she just wanted to break it.
Luo Ying shrugged, “I can’t understand it either; our values are just incompatible.”
“To be precise, nothing fits,” she added with a pout.
She went on to caution, “Brother Ning, you must not let Luo Yuefeng and the others find out your identity now, because I feel that woman would definitely harm you.”
After all, Luo Ning was her younger uncle’s biological daughter; what was Luo Yuefeng?
That woman had even talked in front of the Zu brothers about asking their uncle for help to permanently heal Zu Yu’s constitution.
To speak of such matters in front of his legitimate daughter seemed like a slap in the face.
Her younger uncle had always kept a respectful distance from the Eldest Aunt and Luo Yuefeng; she didn’t believe that they could actually persuade him to intervene.
Thus, if Luo Yuefeng knew Luo Ning was her younger uncle’s daughter, that woman, with her narrow-mindedness, would definitely feel too ashamed to face losing status and then might do something.

From her previous encounters with Luo Yuefeng, Luo Ning could tell that the other party still didn’t know about her identity.
Yet upon meeting her, the woman already naturally harbored some hostility—could this be fate?
She nodded, “Yes, I won’t tell them my identity myself.”
What’s the point of revealing one’s identity by oneself.
Besides, she had no intentions of getting entangled with the Luo Family; she just wanted to seek justice for her father.
And for her mother, brother, and herself, who almost lost their husband/father because of the Luo Family.
Luo Ning asked Luo Ying, “Do you know Luo Xinxin?”
Luo Ying replied, “Yes, she’s a child from a branch of the Luo Family; she left the island a long time ago.”
“What about her?” she asked in return.
Luo Ning replied, “Not only did she secretly approach my brother, but she also harbors ill intentions towards us.”
“Since she is from a branch of the Luo Family, I suspect her actions may be instigated by the main family on the island.”
Luo Ying, treating her as one of her own, had shared so much, naturally, Luo Ning did not treat her as an outsider and had no reservations.
Luo Ying paused, “Ah, people from the branch approached you?”
She thought it over carefully and said, “Grandpa and Grandma can be ruled out, they might not acknowledge your identities but would not actively allow branch people to target their own grandchildren.”
“In that case, I think the most suspicious person might be the Eldest Aunt.”
“She holds a notable position in the Luo Family, especially with Grandma backing her, managing several resources of the Family Head.”
“Grandma was worried that she might not recover from the death of the Eldest Uncle, so many years ago she had Grandpa assign her to handle many of the family’s external affairs, allowing her substantial contact with the side branches.”
“Someone like her doesn’t even have to explicitly target you; she just has to casually mention something, and those from the side branches naturally come forward to handle the people she dislikes.”
“If anything happens, it’s not linked to her; after all, it’s the side branches who are making foolish moves on their own.”
During her years in the Lei Family, Luo Ying had often observed such dark, manipulative tactics, true love of her scumbag father frequently employed them.
Since she never explicitly spoke out against them, her mother and daughter often pretended to persuade the scumbag, yet there were always people jumping to help that woman bully them.
Once, when she caused a scene, the woman easily cleared her name and even got to play the good guy; after all, the scapegoats were willingly delivered to her doorstep.
So she quickly made the connection and felt it was related to the Eldest Aunt, as she always found her seemingly kind and generous demeanor to be false.
Luo Ning had harbored such suspicions before, and now, hearing Luo Ying’s words, she felt even more certain.
She nodded, “Yes, I understand now.”
She asked, “That woman values Luo Yuefeng a lot, doesn’t she?”
Luo Ying replied, “Yes, Luo Yuefeng is someone she has nurtured from a young age, she values her greatly.”
“This opportunity for Luo Yuefeng to gain experience was also something she fought for.”
“With this, as long as Luo Yuefeng successfully completes her training and returns, she can take over many of the family’s businesses and gain access to higher-level family matters.”
“The Eldest Aunt may appear to others as detached and Zen-like, but I always feel that she isn’t.”
She shrugged and said, “If she were really so Zen, why would she manage the family’s external affairs and groom Luo Yuefeng to be the young leader of the generation, giving her the chance to be recognized as a high-level member of the Luo Family?”
She couldn’t help but remind, “Anyway, you and the younger aunt must be careful of her.”
Luo Ning gave her a reassuring look and smiled, “Don’t worry, I naturally won’t let them succeed.”
They were still chatting when Luo Ying’s cellphone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, she didn’t want to answer, but she couldn’t really avoid it.
She feared that if she ignored them now, they might report her and she wouldn’t be allowed to leave the island again.
So, she answered the call; it was from one of Luo Yuefeng’s devoted, love-struck retainers, who was also a sycophant.
This man was quite cold to her, merely instructing her to hurry back to the hotel, then hung up.
Luo Ying pouted, “Always monitoring me, these people are so tedious.”
She then looked helplessly at Luo Ning, “I have to head back to the hotel now, let’s find another opportunity to meet up later.”
Luo Ning understood her helplessness, reached out and stroked her head, “Hang in there, you and your aunt will definitely gain your freedom.”
Luo Ying stood up, walked to Luo Ning and couldn’t help but hug her, “Cousin, you too, will definitely reunite with your uncle, let’s strive together.”
Luo Ning patted her back, “Yes, we will definitely break the current deadlock.”
Then Luo Ying reluctantly left, while Luo Ning went to find Lu Xun.
She also called Zu Xiao, asking him to keep an eye on Luo Yuefeng and her companions’ movements, as she wouldn’t mind intercepting any Feng Shui jobs they received.
Though Zu Xiao didn’t know why Luo Ning suddenly wanted to target the Luo Family’s people, he would not forget Luo Chun’er’s wife’s encouragement to switch his brother’s medicine, so he immediately agreed.
