Chapter 384 -383: Do the Opposite
Luo Ning and her companion leisurely ate fruit as they waited for people to arrive.
Soon enough, a group of over a dozen people appeared before the two of them.
Luo Ning was somewhat surprised to see that the group was entirely comprised of young people. She could sense their abilities, each one being no better than a chicken.
Their level was hardly any better than Fifth Elder Lao’s. Did they really think they could pick a fight with her?
Could it be they intended to bully the fewer with their numbers?
Luo Ranran was also taken aback upon seeing the newcomers.
She addressed the person in the lead, “Lei Qiu, what do you think you’re doing? Bringing so many people to our Lou Family’s territory, do you want to fight?”
Lei Qiu did not respond to Luo Ranran but instead turned his gaze to Luo Ning.
He spoke, “Miss Luo, right? Today, I am here to invite you to visit the Lei Family.”
Luo Ning raised an eyebrow, “Invite me to visit the Lei Family? I don’t seem to remember knowing you.”
Luo Ranran whispered into Luo Ning’s ear, “This guy is the youngest son of the current heir to the Lei Family, whose leg your father broke a few years back.”
Luo Ning instantly understood Lei Qiu’s identity.
The child truly born of her aunt’s former husband – what a complex relationship.
Luo Ranran’s voice wasn’t low, so Lei Qiu and his people overheard.
Lei Qiu’s face turned a shade uglier as he asked Luo Ning, “Do you dare to visit our Lei Family?”
Luo Ning retorted, “Are you trying to have the daughter repay her father’s debts?”
Lei Qiu clenched his fists, “Indeed, let the past generation deal with their grievances. We will settle the disputes of our generation.”
His father had been ridiculed behind his back by members of the family after Luo Yicheng broke his leg and took away the Madam. There were even those who sought to use this to contest for the position of heir.
His father was also disheartened by Luo Yicheng, always sullen and upset.
His father doted on them a lot, so he too harbored hatred for Luo Yicheng.
He had sought out Luo Yicheng but found that the man had been confined by the Luo Family to the Forbidden Land, which left him seething with frustration.
Until last night, someone told him that Luo Yicheng’s daughter had arrived on the island and was a guest of the Lou Family.
Since he couldn’t find Luo Yicheng to avenge his father, he could perfectly make Luo Ning repay her father’s debts.
They also informed him that today Luo Ning would be visiting the island with Luo Ranran.
He had people keep watch, and upon spotting a Lou Family boat sailing here, he quietly brought men to follow.
Luo Ning was somewhat exasperated and scanned Lei Qiu and his men behind him, “You think you can battle me with just your crowd?”
“A bunch of chickens coming to challenge Luo Ning, are you kidding me?” Luo Ranran found it amusing as well.
Let alone Luo Ning, even if she stepped in, she could effortlessly suppress these youngsters.
Lei Qiu had investigated Luo Ning beforehand and knew that not only had she won a battle against Elder Luo Ba, trapped Fifth Elder Lao, but just two days ago, she had also given Lou Wu a good thrashing.
He drew a gun from his waist and aimed it at Luo Ning, “I’m not an idiot, to invite you to the Lei Family, there’s more than just a battle on the table.”
Following his movement, his men also drew their guns, aiming at Luo Ning and Luo Ranran.
Luo Ning raised an eyebrow, “At least you have some brains.”
“But the idea must have come from someone else.”
She roughly understood the strategy of the ‘Fake Widow’; this was an attempt to drag the Lei Family down with her.
Her father started a feud with the Lei Family heir for her aunt, and if Lei Qiu caused her trouble, she would inevitably have to fight back.

If Lei Qiu accidentally suffered an accident during their conflict, she and the Lei Family would become sworn enemies.
Considering her father’s previous grievances, wouldn’t the Lei Family be out for her blood?
Playing the game of using someone else’s hand to kill really smoothly.
Lei Qiu stiffened his neck and said, “You don’t care if it’s someone else’s idea, I’m just asking if you’re coming with us or not.”
Luo Ranran’s eyes were full of disdain; unless it was the very latest type of artillery attack, these bullets couldn’t harm them at all.
She gave Luo Ning an inquiring look, “Shall we?”
Luo Ning had been observing Lei Qiu’s men; when one of the young men heard Luo Ranran’s words, excitement showed in his eyes, and he even took aim in Lei Qiu’s direction.
As expected, she guessed right.
If she and Luo Ranran made their move, in the ensuing chaos, this person would give Lei Qiu a fatal shot and then let them take the blame.
With her and Luo Ranran’s abilities, even if they explained, no one would believe them, not to mention this person would also incite others to dump the blame on them.
They were set to shoulder this blame.
Luo Ning gave Luo Ranran a look that meant to keep calm.
She looked at Lei Qiu with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, “There’s a saying, ‘It’s easy to invite a god, but hard to send one away’. Are you sure you want to invite me to the Lei Family as a guest?”
Lei Qiu didn’t know why, but looking at Luo Ning’s smile, he always felt she was up to no good.
But once they were on Lei Family’s turf, he wasn’t afraid of this woman one bit.
He snorted coldly, “I came here to invite you today, and naturally, I will bring you back.”
Luo Ning found that children who grew up cherished and well-protected, plus those who hadn’t faced darkness off the island, were like Luo Ranran’s nephew – a bit naïve.
She said cheerily, “Sure, I’m quite interested in the Lei Family’s Feng Shui Xuan Shu, visiting for an exchange wouldn’t be bad.”
Luo Ning asked Luo Ranran, “Are you going?”
Luo Ranran was startled at first but quickly caught on.
She had been through darkness and knew conspiracy well; she instantly understood the fake widow’s plan.
Although the Lei Family had declined somewhat over the years, they were an ancient Fengshui Family with a thousand years of heritage. Should they really turn nasty, it would be true trouble for Luo Ning.
Lei Qiu was the youngest son of the Lei Family heir, also the most doted-on and treasured son.
Even the Lei Family Patriarch and his wife were said to be very fond of this grandson.
If this guy died here, whether out of genuine affection or for the face of the aristocratic family, the Lei Family would absolutely not let Luo Ning off the hook.
Talk about the fake widow’s move being truly venomous.
Luo Ranran also guessed Luo Ning’s intention – to do the opposite and not let the fake widow’s scheme succeed.
She didn’t feel at ease with Luo Ning going to the Lei Family alone, and said with a grin, “Sure, I’ve never been to the Lei Family either, it would be fun to visit.”
Lei Qiu: “…” Why are these two so pleased?
And so easily dealt with? Did they give in too quickly?
He still pointed a gun at them, “Don’t you play any sneaky tricks.”
Luo Ranran rolled her eyes, “Little brother, a brain is a good thing; you should really bring it with you when you go out.”
Luo Ning stood up, “Let’s head to the Lei Family now then, you lead the way.”
Lei Qiu had originally thought they were in for a big fight; although he didn’t plan on hurting Luo Ning, he had envisioned tying her up and taking her home, making a public spectacle to shame the Luo Family.
Who knew these two would be so compliant, leaving him no stage to perform.
No wonder they say Luo Ranran is twisted; those who play with her are all not right in the head, it seems true now.
While he was spaced out, Luo Ning and Luo Ranran had already walked up to him.
Luo Ranran raised her hand and tapped Lei Qiu’s forehead, “What are you daydreaming about? Lead the way!”
This kid is quite amusing; his actions today were definitely his own doing.
Suddenly, she was somewhat looking forward to seeing the reaction of the Lei Family’s higher-ups when she and Luo Ning arrived as guests; just thinking about it seemed quite entertaining.
