Chapter 440: Snatching the Child
Meng Ke only took out one-tenth of the ginseng seeds and asked Xiaohong to plant them, and wait for the results of this batch to come out before deciding on the rest. While waiting, Luo Tian's surgery time had also arrived.
The medical conditions on the main star are the best in the entire alliance. In addition, the Luo family attaches great importance to it, so the surgery is performed directly in the exclusive hospital in the Luo family’s main residence.
What Meng Ke didn't expect was that the people in the main house wouldn't let her go after the operation.
Of course, they didn't want Luo Tian, but wanted to keep the children in the Luo family, with Luo Jing being the first one to do so.
Luo Tian was repairing in the medical cabin, and Luo Jing found Meng Ke to talk about this.
Meng Ke refused on the spot: "I don't feel comfortable leaving the child at the Luo family."
Luo Jing sat in the main seat of the lounge, looking down at Meng Ke. "My Luo family is a top family after all, with the most advanced technology in the alliance. The child will get the best care here. What are you worried about? If I really have to say something, it's the simple villa you are living in now. I am really worried."
Meng Ke didn't want to hear his nonsense. "Don't tell me you don't know. It's often the people around you who can harm you. The Luo family's main residence is complex. Some people may have some forces that have been deeply rooted for hundreds of years. You can't rule it out. My villa is simple, but simplicity has its advantages. This is the main star. No one dares to make any big moves. As for small moves, my house is like the strongest composite gold. No one can break it, let alone let others take advantage of it."
Her basement cultivation room has the same layers of checkpoints as the Luo family's maternity room, but the difference is that she does not have high-tech checkpoints along the way. Instead, the deeper you go, the more primitive the checkpoints become. If someone can really get in, she will respect that person as a real man.
Luo Jing had long expected Meng Ke to refuse. If he didn't know that his brother only listened to his wife, he wouldn't have needed to discuss it with this woman.
"I think you should have guessed it. It was the elders' intention to keep Xiao Xuan here. I'm just a messenger. Whether you and Xiao Tian agree or not, it can't change the outcome."
Meng Ke frowned: "No way? The Luo family, a top family, is actually blatantly breaking the law?!"
Luo Jing remained noncommittal: "You should know that many things can be achieved within the legal scope, it's just a matter of perspective. You and Xiao Tianzhe Yang are members of the Luo family, and I don't want to take things to this point. But just because I don't want to doesn't mean the elders won't want to."
How could Meng Ke let anyone just say that and send her child away? No matter what Luo Jing said, she had only one thing to say: I don’t agree! I absolutely don’t agree!!!
Seeing that he couldn't persuade her, Luo Jing sighed and said, "Let me be frank. The family wants to train Xiao Xuan to be the new generation of heir. I can't make the decision on this matter."
Meng Ke then realized that Luo Jing's address was wrong: "What Xiao Xuan?"
"The family named this child Luo Xuan. All the direct descendants of the Luo family have two-character names."
Meng Ke's eyes widened: "So you, the Luo family, are treating my child like a takeaway and ordering him in advance!"
Luo Jing glanced at Meng Ke and said, "Be careful with your words. You are also a member of the Luo family."
Meng Ke was not buying it: "Come on, your elders are resorting to extreme measures, and you're still using your family as a cover, who are you trying to fool?"
"You don't have to be so repulsive. Think about the support a top family could give Xiao Xuan with their entire clan. If Xiao Xuan grows up in such an environment, his future will have limitless possibilities. Even you, a dual-system master, cannot give him these."
Meng Ke knew that her current status was nothing compared to that of the wealthy families, but that didn't mean she was giving up on Xiao Xuan. Oh, that's not right! What Xiao Xuan? She named her own child.
"Alright! Stop talking! I won't stay in the Luo family. I've already said that if the children want to return to their father's family when they grow up, I won't object. But if they don't want to, I don't want them to be held hostage by their father's family for the rest of their lives."
"Do you have any misunderstandings about the status of the Luo family's heir? Before they reach adulthood, they only need to enjoy the endless resources. Even if they fail in the competition for heir, with the support of the elders, their results will not be bad. The Luo family is different from the Gu family. The Luo family will not destroy losers."
"It sounds nice, but the hidden dangers are always there, and we're protected by a group of elders. Even if the winner finally wins, he or she could be replaced by the loser at any time. You have to keep one eye open even when you sleep, and life won't be easy. Oh! Stop trying to persuade me. I'm telling you, I won't agree, I won't agree! Also, my baby's name isn't Xiaoxuan. Tiantian and I want to name him or her ourselves."
Seeing Meng Ke's refusal to budge, Luo Jing's eyes grew even colder. "What if I tell you that if you want to continue living with Xiaotian, you must keep this child in the family?"
Meng Ke froze. After making sure that she had heard correctly, she looked straight at Luo Jing: "What do you mean?"
"What I mean is that even if I ask you to divorce Xiaotian, the child must have the surname Luo."
Meng Ke's face darkened. Before she could say anything, the smart door opened and they both looked towards the door at the same time.
Luo Tian has recovered and went out to find his wife.
"Honey, I'm fine! Shall we take the baby home?"
Meng Ke didn't say anything and looked at Luo Jing.
Luo Jing didn't say anything either. He looked back at Meng Ke, waiting for her to explain to her brother.
Anyway, whether Meng Ke is a bad guy or the elders in the tribe are bad guys, it has nothing to do with him. He will always be the best brother in Xingxing in front of his younger brother.
Meng Ke gritted her teeth. This man was too cunning, but there was no way he could make her compromise!
She smiled sweetly: "Okay! Let's take the baby back."
With their fingers intertwined, the couple walked hand in hand to the maternity room.
Luo Tian knew nothing about what happened in the lounge and chattered to Meng Ke to share his joy.
"Honey, what do you think we should name our baby?"
Meng Ke knew she was terrible at naming, and her suggestions were of little value, but she didn't want her husband to think she didn't value the child, so she suggested, "Let Duoduo and the others choose. The baby will be Duoduo's younger brother, and they'll definitely have a lot of ideas. We can pick the best one for the baby then."
"Okay! But wife, how do you know it's your brother?"
He doesn't even know.
Meng Ke's eyes flashed. Subconsciously, she didn't want Tiantian to know about the conversation she had just had with Luo Jing.
Luo Jing followed behind the two of them. He was already a little unhappy about being ignored by his younger brother. When he heard his younger brother's question, his heart skipped a beat and he faked a cough to remind Meng not to reveal the truth.
Meng Ke's thoughts moved, and the smile on her face widened a little. She turned around and said in a negotiating tone: "Brother, do you think Duoduo can decide the name?"
What she meant was that if Duoduo wanted her brother to have the surname Luo, she would have nothing to say, but if Duoduo insisted on letting her brother have the surname Meng like her, no one could stop her.
Luo Jing narrowed his eyes: "I will discuss it with the elders."
Luo Tian pouted: "Brother, what does the family have to do with the child of Keke and me? The name is decided. Listen to our Duoduo."
Luo Jing didn't want his brother to worry, so he used the couple's gossip he had just heard to stop Meng Ke: "Didn't you say that we should let everyone speak freely and finally choose a nice name? I think Luo Xuan is a good choice."
Luo Tian's eyes widened. "Brother! Are you confused? My wife said that our children will have the surname Luo until they reach adulthood. It's up to them to decide whether to change their surname in the future. You are their uncle, so you can't deprive them of their right to choose while they can't even speak."
He knew Luo Jing had a heart attack, and he knew his brother would definitely disagree with this. But as for the family, ah! Forget it, let's find another way!
Meng saw that his uncle no longer insisted and felt a little proud. It turned out that the younger brother had to be the one who was obsessed with his brother.
Luo Tian was most concerned about his brother. How could he not notice that his brother was so obviously depressed? He immediately turned around and took his brother's arm and asked, "What's wrong? Brother, is someone in the clan bullying you again?"
"again?"
Meng Ke repeated the word and looked Luo Jing up and down in disbelief. She didn't believe that such a smart person would be bullied.
Luo Tian has been with Meng Ke for a long time, and he can understand the whole meaning of Meng Ke just by saying one word.
"Wife, don't be fooled by how powerful my brother is now. Actually, before we got married, we were always bullied."
Especially Uncle Cheng’s wife Ye Ranran, who always makes things difficult for Big Brother by relying on her status as a senior planter.
Luo Tian thought a little wickedly that it was actually a good thing that this aunt died.
Oh no! He couldn't think like that. It was a human life after all, and senior planters were so precious! He couldn't think like that, he couldn't think like that!
Luo Tian patted his forehead to interrupt his slightly evil thoughts.
Meng Ke grabbed her with concern and said, "Why did you hit yourself on the forehead? Don't you know your body is still weak after giving birth? What if you get any sequelae?"
Luo Tian held his elder brother's right hand and his wife's left hand. Not far in front of him was the door where he was expecting his second child. Life was so beautiful.
He tilted his head and rubbed his wife's shoulder: "Wife, if I get sequelae and become stupid, will you abandon me?"
