Pei Jing narrowed his eyes and turned to Luo Bi, asking, "How long do you plan to consider it?"

Luo Bi hesitated and said, "At the very least, I need to wait for my father and brother to return and discuss it with them."

Pei Jing didn't say anything else, nodded, and got up to take his leave.

Luo Feifan didn't leave. After the group from the Executive Hall departed, he said to Luo Bi, "Don't be foolish, child. The Executive Hall is no ordinary place. Those people are ruthless. Once you sign a contract with them, you'll lose your freedom."

Luo Bi looked bewildered and appeared frightened, "Is it that serious?"

Luo Feifan was deeply distressed, "By the time you realize it, it will be too late."

Luo Yan, who had been gritting her teeth in anger, said angrily, "Grandfather, don't bother with her. We're trying to help, but she doesn't appreciate it."

Luo Feifan ignored Luo Yan and continued to earnestly advise Luo Bi, making her head ache. Suddenly, he said, "I'm not comfortable leaving you and your mother at home. Pack your things and stay at the main residence for a couple of days."

Luo Bi didn't want to go, and she pulled at the corners of her mouth, giving herself an excuse, "I won't go. I can't sleep well away from home."

"Just make do for a while," Luo Feifan said, truly troubled by his granddaughter. "I'm worried that someone else might come looking for you in the next couple of days."

No matter what Luo Feifan said, Luo Bi refused to go. In the end, the old man left angrily with Luo Yan.

Guan Zhuting went upstairs to continue tidying the study, while Luo Bi sat in the living room, lost in thought. She stared at the terminal for a while and then called Feng Ling. Feng Ling answered quickly, and Luo Bi told him about the people from the Executive Hall who had come to see her. She then worriedly asked, "Do you think someone else might have designs on me?"

Feng Ling pondered for a moment and then suggested, "Why don't you move in with me? No one would dare to cause trouble at the military base."

Luo Bi was taken aback, her heart rate suddenly accelerating. After a while, she said, "No, I won't cohabit before marriage."

Feng Ling wasn't surprised by the rejection. Even when Luo Bi was Huachen's fiancée, she never lived with him, showing that she wasn't a casual person. After a moment of silence, Feng Ling spoke in a deep, pleasant voice, "We can get married right away." If Luo Bi married him, he would naturally ensure her safety and peace of mind.

Luo Bi was startled, lowered her head, and laughed softly, her lips tinged with sarcasm. A man who had dated other women had no right to talk about marriage with her.

Feng Ling chuckled, "I was just joking, don't take it seriously."

Luo Bi lost the desire to talk, exchanged a few perfunctory words, and hastily ended the call.

On the other side, Feng Ling looked at the communication and smiled mockingly. She didn't want to marry him? That was truly unexpected and inexplicably annoying.

After hanging up, Luo Bi's heart continued to thud. Every time she thought about Feng Ling's proposal, she felt flustered. She had known Feng Ling before, but the circumstances of their acquaintance were not pleasant memories.

In the Empire, the status and treatment of military personnel were very high, and the military even allowed family members to accompany them. At the time, although Luo Bi, as Huachen's fiancée, didn't live with the military, she would visit the military base to see Huachen from time to time.

Over time, Luo Bi got to know some of the military families and occasionally joined their group.

People tend to live in groups, and even though Luo Bi preferred solitude, it was impossible for her to be close to no one. However, she found it difficult to interact with a group of women, as relationships among women were very complex.
