Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love-Chapter 378 Luo Yanran felt that she was about the same as that national treasure, the panda.
Unfortunately for Xie Xiao, this time he wasn’t in a debate—sitting opposite him was a lawyer.
They couldn’t please them at all on this side.
Just dealing with Luo Lawyer was already giving him a hard time.
Who dares to quibble with a lawyer, after all.
Xie Xiao sighed softly, "Luo Lawyer, I concede to your professional expertise; I simply can’t outtalk you."
Luo Lawyer pushed up his glasses, smiling as well, "Oh, not at all, President Xie is quite the orator himself. It’s a pity not to have you in the legal field."
His voice carried a laugh, after all, it looked like they were winning this round.
Xie Xiao quickly glanced over at Luo Yanran, "I’ll pass, but my wife is a lawyer."
"Oh, that’s quite a coincidence." Luo Lawyer instantly smiled with interest.
Kang Hui clicked his tongue and whispered to Luo Yanran, "If Luo Lawyer knew it was you, I bet he would be beside himself with laughter."
Luo Yanran shifted her gaze from Xie Xiao, blinked, and asked, "Why?"
"Nothing, I just feel like he would find it funny," Kang Hui also blinked, and both of them laughed.

Xie Xiao, who had been keeping an eye on Kang Hui and Luo Yanran, saw them talking and laughing together.
Grinding his teeth, he smiled and spoke up, "Kang Lawyer, Luo Lawyer, what’s so funny that you’re talking about?"
Luo Yanran silently cursed ’jealous jar’ in her heart.
But still, she smiled and said, "Nothing, just saying I didn’t expect President Xie to be so young and handsome."
A female lawyer sitting nearby looked at Luo Yanran in surprise—wasn’t this kid usually the silent type?
Why was she suddenly speaking up now?
Even Luo Lawyer looked at Luo Yanran with some surprise.
Kang Hui was still laughing, "Indeed, young and handsome, a promising youth."
"Thank you. You flatter me," Xie Xiao laughed shaking his head.
Just then, there was a knock on the door, and Luo Ming entered.
His eyes quickly swept through the people in the meeting room.
Everyone rose to their feet when they saw him come in.
Luo Ming had a smile on his face and walked over to Luo Lawyer, extending his hand, "I hope I’m not disturbing you? It’s been a while, Luo Lawyer. I heard you were here and thought I’d drop by. We haven’t seen each other in such a long time..."
"Look at you, CEO Luo..." Luo Lawyer replied with a smile, indicating a reasonably good relationship with Luo Ming.
After exchanging pleasantries for a bit, the two sat down, and everyone else followed suit.
Luo Ming glanced at the open folder in front of Xie Xiao, "Are you done talking?"
Xie Xiao smiled helplessly, "Pretty much. Luo Lawyer is just too eloquent."
Luo Ming laughed and reached for the file, "Or else, did you think our Luo Lawyer was a pushover?"
Luo Lawyer hurriedly said, "Oh, I wouldn’t dare think so. Is CEO Luo going to discuss this personally with me?"
He also showed a surprised and flattered expression.
But Luo Ming waved his hand, "No need to discuss. I will defer to Luo Lawyer’s judgement here, and I also want to thank you for looking after our child."
At these words, Luo Lawyer was taken aback, glanced at Xie Xiao—after all, they had hardly met a few times.
It wasn’t like there was much of that ’looking after’ going on, right?
However, Luo Ming called over to Luo Yan, "Luoluo, come here."
Luo Yanran smiled helplessly while Xie Xiao’s face bore a smile.
Since Luo Yanran became pregnant, aside from his extreme concern, Luo Ming was even more exaggerated.
He almost wished Luoluo wouldn’t go to work anymore.
Of course, that wasn’t possible, and Luo’s mother had even scolded him a few times over it.
His main reason for coming this time was probably also because of Luo Yanran.
Luo Yanran stood up, walked over to Luo Ming, and quietly called out, "Dad."
The voice was quite helpless.
Now, at the law firm, aside from Kang Hui who already guessed it, the other two were stunned.
Luo Ming slapped his thigh, "Ah, my brain, I didn’t think more about it before."
Yang Lan said with a smile, "Didn’t see that one coming, right? We’ve been troubling you all these days with our Luoluo."
Luo Ming waved his hand, speaking frankly, "Yanran’s ability is witnessed by everyone, so there’s no question of taking care or not. If her ability wasn’t up to par, she wouldn’t be here today. But Luo, I am truly envious of you, your daughter and son-in-law are both so outstanding..."
What followed was a series of mutual business compliments.
Xie Xiao took Luo Yanran by the hand and had her sit down, worried that standing would be too tiring for her.
After chatting for a bit, it was already past five.
Xie Xiao had Sister Huang reserve a private dining room for their meal.
The group set off to go eat together.
Thus, the company folks saw their young Mr. Xie holding hands with the female lawyer who’d just walked in, leaving with him in front of President Luo.
The female lawyer was very pretty, and the two looked good together.
Yes, according to Lawyer Li’s latest news, that’s Mr. Xie’s wife.
So, she’s President Luo’s daughter?
Well, having now met her in person, many rumors just fell apart on their own.
No wonder Mr. Xie wasn’t interested in other girls. With such a beautiful wife at home, who would have the heart to look at other young ladies?
Luo Ming came over on short notice; Xie Xiao and the others hadn’t known beforehand.
After the meal, Xie Xiao and Luo Yanran took him to the hotel together.
He wasn’t planning to stay at their house.
Because Luo Ming was flying out early the next morning.
Xie Xiao drove the car, with Luo Yanran in the passenger seat. She turned to her father in the back seat, "Why are you putting yourself through all this trouble?"
"I came to see you, how come I still can’t see your belly?" Luo Ming said with a laugh, "I haven’t seen you in so long, is there anything uncomfortable?"
Luo Yanran’s pregnancy had been quite comfortable, without any morning sickness or discomfort.
If it wasn’t for the regular check-ups confirming she really was pregnant.
Xie Xiao had even wondered if she wasn’t pregnant at all.
Luo Yanran spoke helplessly to her father, "I’m really okay, and the baby is very healthy. The doctor said that for a first pregnancy, it probably won’t show until the fourth or fifth month. You and mom are too anxious; mom has also come over a few times already..."
Indeed, Luo’s couple had relatively flexible schedules.
They had both visited several times.
Yang Lan and Xie Qingxiao were too busy to come, but calls and videos were frequent.
Not to mention the boxes and boxes of items Yang Lan kept sending over.
All of them were carefully selected.
They included nutritious soups and tonics for pregnant women to drink.
Yang Lan often video called Luo Yanran to remind her of things to be aware of.
Worried that she might be uncomfortable.
Xie Xiao too had been lectured by his mother plenty of times, on being considerate to his wife, making her soup every day, and so on...
Anyway, Luo Yanran felt she was being pampered almost like a national treasure, the panda.
Luo Ming, hearing her complaints, just laughed, "You guys are too young; it’s normal for us to be worried."
Xie Xiao quickly said, "Dad, rest assured, I will take good care of Ranran."
Luo Ming nodded, then, as if remembering something, looked at Luo Yanran, "I let your colleagues at the law firm know you’re my daughter today, do you mind?"
Actually, asking now was a bit pointless - they already knew. Experience new stories with novelbuddy
Luo Yanran didn’t mind at all, "The people in our law firm are all pretty good, so it’s no issue. And like Attorney Luo said, it’s all about ability. Being your daughter isn’t anything to be ashamed of, what’s there to hide?"
Luo Ming’s expression softened instantly as he gave a gentle nod, "Indeed, your father isn’t too bad."
