Chapter 1027: My Name is Li Muyun
Chapter 1027: Chapter 1027: My Name is Li Muyun
At this moment, you noticed a young man sitting to the right bottom side of Meng Family, his appearance remarkably handsome, save for the slight malevolence in his brows. He was conversing with Luo Wei, the third son, and upon seeing you and the others enter, he immediately cast his gaze over, staring intently at you.
"Child, come here," the Meng matriarch beckoned with her usual kind smile. You approached as bid, after which she pointed to the young man and asked, "Do you know who he is?"
You looked toward the man and shook your head, saying, "Child has not yet had the honor of meeting this gentleman."
"Although it’s our first meeting, indeed, you and I have been acquainted in spirit for a long time." The young man stood up with a smile and saluted you with cupped hands, "I am Luo Yun, the second son of Luo Cheng from Chang’an."
At these words, you were dumbfounded, feeling a sudden "boom" in your head, and then staggered a few steps back, staring at the man before you with shocked eyes, "You, what did you just say?"
"I am Luo Yun, the second son of Luo Cheng from Chang’an," the young man said with a smile, but the originally handsome smile on his face seemed to you sly and venomous.
"Husband," Zi Yi and Zhen Nan rushed forward to support you, standing by your side with concerned expressions on their faces.
At this moment, you seemed to understand something, yet at the same time, knew nothing. You couldn’t help but laugh out loud, "So you are Luo Yun, then who am I?"
"That, perhaps, should be left to our mother to answer," the young man’s smile remained.
"Hmph, you’re nothing but an evil spirit forcibly possessing my second brother’s body. Evil ghost, show yourself immediately and roll out of my second brother’s flesh!" Luo Wei glared at you furiously, his stance unequivocally genuine – from his fierce expression, it wasn’t hard to see that he truly wished to tear you limb from limb.
"Third brother, do not act rashly!" Luo Xin immediately commanded, and Luo Wei, intimidated by the authority of Luo Xin, stepped back, though the hate in his eyes only intensified.
The situation had become clear to you as well.
Apparently, someone had brought back the soul of the true Luo Yun from the Underworld, and this Luo Yun had returned by Borrowing Corpse to Resurrect The Soul. Since the facts were clear, you swiftly regained a determined smile, "If that’s the case, there’s no need for me to dodge and hide any longer. I am Li Muyun, from the nation of China, pleased to meet you all."
"The nation of China? I’ve never heard of it, where might it be located?"
Aside from the silently observing Meng matriarch, only Luo Xin showed you any sort of kindness, much like before.
You continued to explain, "Outside of the Three Realms, on a planet called Earth. If we’re speaking in terms of years, my original world is over fifteen hundred years ahead of now. One might say, I come from the future, though, of course, this future is not that future."
"Hmph, bragging shamelessly, uttering nonsense, nothing more than a ghost from the Underworld," Luo Wei snorted coldly from the side.
"Say what you will, it’s all the same to me. The deed is done, so let’s all be clear," you said with a firmer expression, fear already a thing of the past. What you sought was not the grandeur of the Luo family nor did you need their protection; in fact, in this world, you were fully capable of being self-reliant.
"No." At this, the previously silent Meng matriarch suddenly spoke up, staring directly at you, her smile as kind as ever, "Child, no matter what the past held, ever since you woke up from your coma, I knew that you were my child, and you always have been."
Upon hearing this, you were taken aback, for in Meng matriarch’s eyes, you saw the same look as in your mother’s, an effulgence that would never change!
"Mother!"
Luo Wei and the young man turned their gazes to the Meng Family at the same time. They could never have imagined the Meng Family would actually acknowledge you. They had thought you would be torn to pieces.
You remained silent for a moment, then bowed deeply to the Meng Family. By now, your eyes were brimming with tears as you choked out, "Mother."
This bow was not meant for the Meng Family, but for your biological mother, Xiao Ying!
They took the risk of being erased by the Order Power to acknowledge you, and it also indicated that the order of this world had started to shift!
"Ah." The Meng Family’s beautiful face lit up with a radiant smile, then she turned to Zi Yi who had been clinging to you and said, "Nan’er, Yi’er, your mother has chosen a good day for you. In ten days, once your father finishes his retreat, the three of you will marry!"
"Mother, this cannot be!" Luo Wei spoke up in a hurry. Pointing at Zhen Nan, he said, "Prince Jin is absolutely determined to have her, if..."
"Impudence! It’s not your place to make decisions for this family!" Although the Meng Family appeared strict with her sons on the surface, she was usually quite gentle in her methods and seldom resorted to beating or scolding. Hearing Luo Wei’s words, she abruptly slammed the table, her eyes wide with anger, "I’ve already warned you, don’t get too close to Prince Jin and the like! Moreover, which bastard would dare covet my daughter-in-law!?"
With those words, the Meng Family’s domineering presence was unmistakable. Zi Yi and the other ladies, looking on from below, were full of admiration. This was truly a woman of great fortitude!
"In ten days, the three of you will have your wedding. Even if God himself shows up, he won’t have a say!" The Meng Family’s declaration was final. She then led Zhen Nan and the others into the inner courtyard, leaving the four brothers to get along with each other.
Ha, as if they could get along.
However, as someone who was not a fool and understood the art of keeping a low profile, you played along, calling each other brothers, "Elder brother, what do you say about the order of us four brothers now?"
Luo Xin smiled, stroking his barely-grown beard with a grin, "It’s natural for the third brother to become the fourth, but it’s not as easy for the two of you to be arranged. By the way, second brother, was your real name Li Muyun?"
Seeing Luo Xin looking toward you, you nodded and said, "My name has always been Li Muyun. By some strange twist of fate, I came to this world and just as strangely entered this body."
"How old would you be according to your original reckoning, then?"
"I should be twenty-five, I guess?" After saying so, you couldn’t help feeling somewhat emotional.
"Well, that’s easy, you’re still the second eldest, it’s just that the original second will have to become the third," Luo Xin looked towards the former Luo Yun. "However, I’m afraid the third brother will have to change his name, since second brother’s name can’t be changed to the outside world, and surely you two brothers can’t share the same name, right?"
"Elder brother need not worry, I have already thought of my name. From now on, I shall be called Luo Shijie."
"Good! Today, the four of us brothers have reunited, and we must thoroughly indulge ourselves in drink!"
Though the surface may have appeared joyous, in reality, your heart was surging with flames, for you knew too well that the entire family might soon face shocking and daunting challenges!
From an angle unseen by you and Luo Xin, a sinister smile flickered across Luo Shijie’s face.
