Returning to 84, hunting for wealth, one person feeding three families.

When Luo Ling and the others returned in the evening, they saw Ye Chen's deep gaze and immediately asked him what had happened.

"It's nothing!" After thinking it over again and again, Ye Chen finally decided to keep it a secret.

After all, if Luo Ling finds out about this, she'll probably be caught in the middle again.

On one side is her father who has loved her for many years, and on the other side is her current husband. Luo Ling must be having a hard time making a choice.

Rather than causing the other person unnecessary pain, it's better to silently bear everything yourself!

Ye Chen had this idea, but he never expected that someone would interfere!

That evening, Luo Guanzhong, who had left earlier, suddenly knocked on the door again.

A series of shouts finally alerted Luo Ling!

In front of Luo Ling, Luo Guanzhong twisted the truth and pushed all the blame onto Ye Chen.

Even the loss of money at home became Ye Chen's responsibility. It was said that Ye Chen asked someone to pass on a message to him, asking him to sell those clivia plants ahead of schedule.

So in the end, he missed a great opportunity to make money!

Upon hearing this, Tian Cong immediately jumped out, pointed at Luo Guanzhong's nose, and launched into a tirade of curses.

He was even about to take action, but Ye Chen stopped him at the crucial moment!

Luo Guanzhong did indeed use this as a reason to complain to his daughter, Luo Lin.

Fortunately, Luo Ling remained skeptical throughout.

Hearing the last part, he even asked directly.

"Dad, you said Ye Chen asked someone to pass on a message to you. When exactly did it happen?"

"It was him who asked someone to pass on the message to me, just last week!" Luo Guanzhong gritted his teeth, his acting exceptionally convincing.

Luo Ling frowned slightly and questioned, "Ye Chen went out of town with me last week, how could he possibly have someone pass on a message to you?"

Upon hearing this, Luo Guanzhong's expression immediately changed, and he quickly changed his words.

"Then I must have misremembered. It wasn't last week, it was the week before last. Anyway, it's this kid who ruined our family, Lingling. You can't believe a word he says!"

"He just doesn't want to see our family prosper. Once we're rich, he won't be able to control you anymore!"

"Lingling, listen to your father's advice. Break up with him completely today and come home with me!"

As Luo Guanzhong finished speaking, he stepped forward and tried to pull his daughter away.

Luo Ling's face turned ashen, and she flung Luo Guanzhong's hand away: "Dad, I didn't go out with you at all last week. I only said that to trick you!"

"Given Ye Chen's character, I believe he would never do such a thing. And now it's proven that you were the one who interfered, trying to pin this on Ye Chen!"

Upon hearing this question, Luo Guanzhong's face darkened, and he looked at his daughter in disbelief.

"Luo Ling, are you implying that I'm lying? I'm your biological father, what gives you the right to question me?"

"Luo Ling, let me advise you, we are the real family. As for Ye Chen and his ilk, they are the outsiders!"

"You'd rather be blinded by outsiders than believe your own father. Isn't that heartbreaking?"

Luo Guanzhong's acting reached its peak at the end, with two lines of tears even streaming down his face, his expression filled with grief and indignation.

It was as if he really was a good father who had been wronged by his daughter and had good intentions.

Unfortunately, Luo Ling ultimately remained rational and stared intently at her father before questioning him.

"Dad, I know your business capabilities perfectly well. You should know better than me how much of the business Grandpa left you squandered!"

"Tell me the truth, what exactly happened? If you tell me honestly, Ye Chen is willing to help you out of respect for me."

"This isn't about the money at all, it's about your attitude. You're accusing someone without any evidence. Ye Chen might not bother with you, but if you remain stubborn, even I can't help you!"

Seeing Luo Ling's solemn expression, Luo Guanzhong fell silent for a long time before finally telling the truth.

However, Luo Guanzhong still did not forget to frame Ye Chen, truthfully revealing the conditions Ye Chen had previously proposed.

She added fuel to the fire, saying, "This kid wants our family's shares; he's clearly up to no good. How could we let him buy our enormous assets for just 50?"

"Luo Ling, you're all grown up now, you should be able to tell right from wrong. Although I lied just now, I didn't wrong Ye Chen. He's not a good person at all!"

"Ye Chen's request was for you to transfer the shares to my name. How did that become plotting against our family's assets?" Luo Ling questioned coldly.

Luo Guanzhong frowned and fell silent.

Seeing this, Luo Ling pressed on, "Dad, in your eyes, don't even I count as family?"

"Or is it that all you care about are your businesses and your money, and you've never cared about anyone else besides those things?"

Faced with repeated questioning, Luo Guanzhong lowered his head and didn't even dare to look at Luo Ling in front of him.

Seeing this, Luo Ling looked much more haggard and questioned him again.

"Dad, do you remember Mom? She once said that you were a selfish person. I was young then, and I never believed her, but today I finally understand!"

"For so many years, there are some things I've kept in my heart. I really want to ask you, why didn't you even show up to see my mother one last time when she passed away?"

"You keep saying you're busy, but why do I hear from others that you're always indulging in pleasure and never actually doing anything productive?"

"When Grandpa was still alive, our Luo family was one of the most prominent families in the entire provincial capital. Even Boss Qin wasn't as well-off as us. But look at what the Luo family has become now!"

"Dad, this is all your fault. Haven't you ever thought about it? If you hadn't been so stubborn and hoarded food to sell at high prices, would you have been sent to the countryside for re-education?"

"Your current situation is entirely your own fault. Like I said, if you don't repent, even I can't help you!"

In the end, Luo Ling didn't linger any longer, turned around, and left Luo Guanzhong with a proud back view.

As he watched his daughter walk further and further away, Luo Guanzhong's eyes turned somewhat red.

In Luo Guanzhong's eyes, he was never wrong; it was always others who were wrong!

Now, not only Ye Chen, but even his own daughter is going against him!

"Why? Why are you forcing me? I've done so much for this family, how come you call me completely useless?"

"I sold the clivia plants ahead of schedule, just in case. What did I do wrong? I've never made a mistake!"

"Just you wait and see! The Luo family will surely rise to prominence in my hands. When that time comes, I'll make you kneel before me and beg me to acknowledge you as my daughter!"
