Chapter 199
199 Unpresentable
“It means that I have the help of a god! Look, with my ability and my husband helping me, I feel like I have a god helping me!” Li Xiaoran said happily.
Li Xiaoran seemed different from her usual sensible and smart self. Instead, she gave off the playfulness of a younger daughter.
Li Xiaoran seemed to be more relaxed than usual.
“You seem happier here than at home?” Luo Cheng asked.
When Li Xiaoran heard this, she was stunned for a moment before pondering.
Yes! She seemed to be in a better mood after leaving Hele Village.
After silently comparing, Li Xiaoran found the problem.
When she was in Hele Village, her parents and sister were at home.
Although she had transmigrated into the Host’s body, outsiders couldn’t see any difference.
Even those close to her didn’t suspect anything because the Host had come back from the brink of death.
However, she wasn’t the Host after all, and she didn’t know the Host’s taste or habits in the past.
What if she accidentally exposed herself and someone saw through her?
Thinking of this, Li Xiaoran realized the problem.
It turned out that subconsciously, she had been suppressing her true nature. That was why she wasn’t happy.
Seeing that Li Xiaoran was stunned on the spot because of his words, Luo Cheng realized something.
Li Xiaoran was a decisive person. When she realized the problem, she would solve it.
“Husband, do you know that my personality has changed drastically from before?!” Li Xiaoran suddenly said, “I once heard people talking behind my back about me being possessed, which caused my personality to change drastically.”
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he immediately understood something.
Logically speaking, not only had Li Xiaoran’s personality changed drastically, but she had also grown up.
There were indeed many suspicious points about it.
He had wanted to understand more about it before, but as his feelings for Li Xiaoran deepened, he gave up on investigating this.
Everyone had their own secrets. Didn’t even he have his own secrets?
He didn’t know how to tell Li Xiaoran this secret, let alone what Li Xiaoran had encountered.
“So, when you were at home, you were also worried that your family thought of you that way, so you were suppressing your true personality?” Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran and revealed her worries.
Li Xiaoran nodded and didn’t hide it.
Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said, “If that’s the case, then there’s no need for you to do so! You should know your parents’ personalities. No matter what you become, in their eyes, you’re their daughter. As for your sister, Xiao Qing, there’s even less of a problem. That girl admires you very much now and won’t think about these things at all!”
“What about you, husband?” Li Xiaoran looked at Luo Cheng and asked.
Luo Cheng saw the uneasiness in Li Xiaoran’s eyes and suddenly smiled. Then, he walked over and hugged Li Xiaoran.
“I like you, and I love you. It doesn’t matter what you are like, as long as you’re you ! So just be yourself!”
Li Xiaoran leaned into Luo Cheng’s arms and smiled when she smelled the scent on his clothes.
Some people didn’t have to do much. A word, a gesture, or a look could be reassuring.
Luo Cheng was such an existence to her.
Moreover, Luo Cheng would never do these things alone. He was really considerate towards Li Xiaoran.
When they went to bed that night, they each slept in their own bed in their own room.
With Luo Cheng’s assuring words, Li Xiaoran slept soundly that night.
Because of Li Xiaoran’s words, Luo Cheng had a thought.
Perhaps he shouldn’t have left his parents-in-law and sister-in-law at home!
However, if he wanted his father-in-law’s family to be independent, he had to first deal with the Li family.
Once the Li family pestered them, his wife would definitely be annoyed.
Why not let his parents-in-law stay in the village and develop? They could do some business in the shop and farm?
Should he bring Li Xiaoran to live in town in the future and manage the town’s business?
The more he thought about it, the more Luo Cheng felt that it was best to do so.
This way, his parents-in-law could be taken care of and Li Xiaoran wouldn’t have to worry about her family all day long.
After making up his mind, Luo Cheng closed his eyes and fell asleep.
The next day was a sunny day.
Although the temperature was getting colder, it was naturally different if the sun was shining.
After breakfast, Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran changed into decent clothes, then rented a carriage and went to the Jin family’s house.
Old Madam Jin was already prepared. When it was almost time, she called her maidservant, Haitang, over to wait.
When Haitang saw Luo Cheng and Li Xiaoran, she walked forward and bowed.
“Greetings, Miss. Greetings, Young Master. Old Madam has been waiting since early in the morning! Thinking that she can see you and Young Master today, she’s in much better spirits!”
When Li Xiaoran heard Haitang’s words, she immediately understood.
Her son’s objection must have made Old Madam Jin unhappy.
“Please bring me to see Grandmother!” Li Xiaoran said.
When Haitang heard how Li Xiaoran addressed Old Madam Jin, the smile on her face widened.
“Yes, yes, yes. Please follow me!”
With that, Haitang walked ahead to lead the way.
The news that Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng had entered the Jin family quickly reached the ears of the other two masters.
Jin Dachang and Jin Ximing also rushed over.
When the two brothers entered the lobby, they happened to see Li Xiaoran giving Old Madam Jin the gift she had brought.
“Grandmother, this is a little token of our appreciation. Please don’t mind!” Li Xiaoran said with a smile.
“Since you know that my mother will despise it, don’t give her these unpresentable gifts! You’re really ignorant!” When Jin Dawei heard this, he immediately scolded with disdain.
However, Jin Ximing didn’t speak. After entering, he began to size up the man and woman sitting in front of Old Madam Jin.
To be honest, if not for Li Xiaoran’s family situation, Jin Ximing wouldn’t have believed that the man and woman in front of him were actually from a rural family.
Even though Li Xiaoran was snubbed, her expression didn’t change. She was still smiling.
As for the man beside Li Xiaoran, he should be Li Xiaoran’s husband, who was a hunter!
But why did a mere hunter look so extraordinary?
His bearing was comparable to that of a descendant of a wealthy family.
At this moment, Jin Ximing calmed him down from his initial surprise. He planned to wait and see.
When Old Madam Jin saw her eldest son showing Li Xiaoran such an attitude as soon as he came in, she was immediately furious.
