“I know your personality! Actually, the reason you did that previously was to save Li Xiaoran’s family from the Li family! It was fine to do so at that time, but it’s different now!” Luo Han picked up his wine glass and took a sip. “Luo Cheng, we’ve been buddies for so many years. I know you very well! Your feelings for Li Xiaoran are very extraordinary! At least, in my opinion, you’re in love!”

“Since you’re in love, everything will be different! If you still want to get a wife to fool the people in the capital, you just have to leave Li Xiaoran and her family in Hele Village. But you’re obviously in love, so everything will be completely different!” Luo Han put down his glass and looked at Luo Cheng seriously.

“Ask yourself what you want,” Luo Han said finally, and began to eat the side dishes.

When Luo Cheng heard Luo Han’s words, his expression became colder and colder, but he had already figured it out.

Yes, Luo Han was right.

He had no choice but to do that previously because he felt that Li Xiaoran was an interesting person. It would be simpler and more convenient for the two of them to work together.

However, everything had changed now, so the corresponding arrangements were naturally different.

“You don’t know?! The people in the capital are still targeting Li Yan!” Luo Cheng said after taking another sip of wine.

Luo Han had just picked up a mouthful of peanuts when he heard Luo Cheng’s words. He immediately sat up straight.

“When was that?”

“Just a few days ago, the Zeng family of White Foothill City came to the Li family to propose marriage to Li Yan. My people have already investigated. The Zeng family is actually related to the Cao family. The Cao family’s eldest aunt married into the Zeng family! My good second brother really put in a lot of effort on finding me! Now that I’m already hiding here, he actually still won’t let me off and still wants to extend his reach!” Luo Cheng sneered.

“Is that why you don’t dare to give Li Xiaoran a status?” Luo Han immediately understood.

“That’s true. In fact, the other important reason is that I want to protect her. She’s too different. She’s so dazzling that I want to hide her light from others!” Luo Cheng poured another glass of wine and took a deep sip.

In his original plan, he had come here to reduce his presence.

He didn’t want those people to keep thinking about him. He only wanted to live the life of an ordinary person. It was simple and not troublesome.

However, after marrying Li Xiaoran, not only was he attracted to her, but he also realized how special she was.

If his brothers found out about Li Xiaoran’s existence, they would probably come to snatch her from him.

He only pretended to want to marry Li Yan, but his second brother kept such a close watch on Li Yan.

If he showed that he cared too much about Li Xiaoran and wanted to marry her openly, he would definitely endanger Li Xiaoran and make everyone who was secretly paying attention to him start to target Li Xiaoran.

Luo Cheng couldn’t bear such consequences.

He wanted to protect his wife!

However, this was too unfair to Li Xiaoran.

He could only give her a marriage contract. He couldn’t marry her with eight bridal sedans and a wedding ceremony.

At the thought of this, Luo Cheng’s heart ached.

The person he loved had to suffer because of him.

And as a man, he couldn’t make her have a decent life.

“What do you think I should do?” At this moment, Luo Cheng’s eyes were red as he looked up at Luo Han.

Luo Han was at a loss for words when he saw how anguished Luo Cheng was.

He wasn’t Luo Cheng. There was no way to empathize with his struggles and pain, so he didn’t know how to handle this.

It was difficult to have the best of both worlds.

Luo Han said nothing. He only picked up his glass and clinked it with Luo Cheng’s before drinking it in one gulp.

Luo Cheng also knew that this matter was difficult to resolve, so he could only drink another glass of wine silently.

After that, they stopped talking about it and talked about other things.

“How’s the handling of the previous incident going?” Luo Cheng asked.

“I caught her, but that woman was very stubborn and didn’t say anything. Now, she’s no longer in my hands! You know how serious this woman’s crime is. I can’t keep her!” Luo Han’s face was filled with frustration as he spoke.

“It’s not for nothing. At least the souls of those who died in that alley are finally comforted!” Luo Cheng said when he heard Luo Han’s words. “Many things don’t happen overnight. It’s not easy to get things done. Take it slow. We still have time!”

Luo Han nodded, then told him about his affairs.

“In the past, I always thought of going to a place to be a benevolent official. I would definitely do my best to do more for those poor people, but after I became a county magistrate, I realized that my previous thoughts were too naive. As a county magistrate, I have too many things to consider. I can’t do whatever I want! There are too many things and too many uncertainties!”

Luo Cheng looked at Luo Han’s dejected expression and thought for a moment before saying something.

“This doesn’t seem like the Young Master Luo Han I know! I remember when I first met you, you didn’t listen to anyone and did whatever you wanted. When your temper flared up, you dared to hit anyone!”

Luo Han couldn’t help but laugh when he heard Luo Cheng’s words.

“At that time, I was born fearless and only relied on my courage to charge forward. Now that I’ve finally grown up and seen a lot, I no longer have the courage I had back then!”

“Perhaps what we lack is the courage from back then! We were overcautious and worried too much, but we forgot our original intentions!” Luo Cheng said.

Luo Cheng was suddenly stunned.

These words were directed at Luo Han, but weren’t they also directed at himself?

Since when did he start to worry too much? Was this the reason he wanted to leave the capital back then?

Didn’t he leave back then to live the life he wanted?

Now that he had found the person he could spend the rest of his life with, why did he become timid?

Luo Cheng stood up abruptly, then left.

“I still have something to do. I’ll meet up with you next time. After you’re done eating, ask the servants to tidy up this place!”
