The demon master was beaten up

Luo Shuya, beaming, took Bai Nini's hand and warmly and enthusiastically seated her next to Liu Dandan. Then, Luo Shuya looked at Bai Nini tenderly and said with a smile, "Nini! Come, take a look at the menu. If there's anything else you'd like to eat, feel free to order it yourself. Don't be polite to Auntie, we're all family!"

Bai Nini's eyes fell on the table laden with delicious dishes, and she couldn't help but feel a little awkward. She replied a little reservedly, "Auntie, look at all the delicious food already on the table. It's really great! I can't think of anything else to order."

However, Luo Shuya didn't seem to be ready to give up. She picked up the serving chopsticks and kept putting various dishes into Bai Nini's bowl, muttering, "Nini, you have to try these dishes today. You must eat your fill and feel good! Otherwise, when Xiao Nuo asks about it later, he'll think we didn't take good care of you!"

In this way, everyone sat together and began to enjoy the food. At the table, people sometimes laughed and talked, and sometimes chatted with Bai Nini. The atmosphere seemed quite harmonious.

However, the attentive Liu Dandan noticed that Bai Nini was still a little nervous and uneasy. So, she leaned over to Bai Nini's ear and whispered in a soothing voice, "Nini, don't be too nervous! This is only my second time eating with them. Don't worry, the Luo family is very easygoing and friendly. They're definitely not like the Qin family who would deliberately make things difficult for you!"

After dinner, everyone moved to the cozy water bar nearby for a break. Luo Shujun and Liu Dandan sat side by side in a corner. This newly-loved couple seemed to have endless topics to talk about, their gazes filled with tenderness and affection as they met.

Meanwhile, Bai Nini sat somewhat uncomfortably beside two amiable elderly people, but their warmth failed to completely dispel her inner tension.

Mrs. Luo looked at Bai Nini with gentle and loving eyes. The more she looked, the more she liked her. Then she said in her extremely kind voice, "Nini, don't be so nervous. You are the girl that our Xiao Nuo loves. We fully support the relationship between you two. If you really can get together, we will definitely not interfere!"

Hearing this, Bai Nini's fair face instantly flushed red, like a ripe apple. She shyly waved her hands and denied it, "That's not true. We...we are not together!"

At this moment, Luo Shuya gently took Bai Nini's hand, staring intently into her clear eyes, and asked with concern, "Nini, don't you really have even the slightest bit of special feelings for Xiao Nuo? I know in my heart that the Qin family must have come to you and put a lot of pressure on you. But don't be afraid. We in the Luo family are not afraid of trouble. We will never let them bully you!"

"Auntie! I really can't implicate Qin Nuo!" Bai Nini's beautiful eyes looked a little dull at this moment, as if they had lost their former brilliance.

Luo Shuya, standing nearby, gently patted Bai Nini's shoulder and whispered softly, "Nini, you're just overthinking things. Don't always think things are so bad. How could this little difficulty possibly stump our Xiao Nuo? Think about it, if he can't even protect the girl he loves in the future, how can he be considered half a member of the Luo family?"

Hearing this, Bai Nini's eyes flickered slightly, but she still remained silent.

Seeing this, Luo Shuya continued, "Nini, are you still thinking about Zhou Yutong? Oh, you can rest assured! He's my own son, how could I not understand him? There's absolutely no possibility for him and Zhou Yutong! You didn't know that Zhou Yutong was very cruel when she was a child. She even abused cats and shamelessly put the blame on Xiao Nuo afterwards. From then on, Xiao Nuo hated her! Not to mention the dirty things she did abroad later... Oh, it's better not to mention it. It's really disgusting!"

Bai Nini shook her head slowly and said softly, "Auntie, it's not that I don't believe in Qin Nuo. Even if we put aside the various disputes between the Qin and Zhou families, I still plan to return to the mountains to be a teacher after graduation. Qin Nuo has his own bright future, and I also have my own dreams. So, we are basically from two completely different worlds, and perhaps we are destined not to be together..." At this point, Bai Nini couldn't help but welled up in her eyes with tears.

"There is no conflict at all between you going back to the mountains to be a teacher and Qin Nuo taking charge of Shenghai in the future!" Luo Shujun, who had been sitting silently in the corner, suddenly spoke at this moment. His voice was loud and firm, interrupting Bai Nini's words at once.

Bai Nini suddenly raised her head, which was originally lowered, and looked at Luo Shujun in astonishment, as if she didn't expect him to interrupt at this time.

Mr. Luo nodded slightly, agreeing with his son's point of view, and then said, "Yes! If Xiao Nuo really wants to be with you, then he can choose to follow you to the mountains. Moreover, with the development and progress of the times, the mountains will eventually be developed. The future is full of countless possibilities and variables. Why worry too much about things that haven't happened yet? Little girl, you can't limit yourself like this and trap yourself in a cage!"

Mr. Luo's words were like a revelation, causing Bai Nini to fall into deep thought. She began to re-examine her previous thoughts, wondering if, as they said, she was too worried about the uncertain future and thus ignored the happiness and possibilities in the present.

On the way back to school, Liu Dandan expertly controlled the steering wheel, occasionally glancing at Bai Nini in the passenger seat. She said, "Nini, to be honest, Qin Nuo has done so much for you. It's just that whenever he deals with matters related to you, he's always extremely cautious and careful. He's especially afraid that you'll reject his kindness, and he doesn't want his efforts to taint your once pure and beautiful relationship with even the slightest hint of gratitude, causing it to lose the natural harmony it once was."

Hearing this, Bai Nini couldn't help but raise her fair and delicate face, blinking her bright eyes, and asked in a soft voice with a hint of doubt: "Could it be that this time the scholarship fund is also from Qin Nuo...?"
