Chapter 627: Chapter 301 Gossiping Luo Ze_2
A most unique and rare fragrance began to permeate from his mouth.
“This, this taste…”
Luo Ze’s eyes widened, he seemed somewhat surprised that the Fu Rong cake could taste so good.
“Hahaha…”
Seeing Luo Ze like this,
Luo Yao couldn’t help but burst into loud laughter.
He remembered when he first tasted the Fu Rong cake,
perhaps he had looked much like Luo Ze does now?
“How is it?”
“The taste is pretty good, isn’t it?”
Luo Yao asked with a smile.
After Luo Ze finished eating that piece,

he quickly picked up the second and third pieces, stuffing them all into his mouth.
While eating the Fu Rong cakes, he spoke with some difficulty, “Good, good, the taste of this Fu Rong cake is indeed… very good.”
Seeing this, Luo Yao nodded with satisfaction.
Afterward, he left two boxes of Fu Rong cakes for young Luo Ze,
then silently departed from the deserted area that had been untouched by anyone for many years.
…
Deep within the Luo Family Ancestral Land,
outside a small courtyard that exuded an aura of mystery and antiquity.
At this moment, at the entrance of the courtyard,
there stood Luo Yao, who was set to be the next Family Head of the Luo Family.
He was carrying a box of Fu Rong cakes, his expression a mix of nervousness and hesitation as he stood silently at the courtyard’s entrance.
At this time, he seemed to be struggling with a decision,
wondering whether or not to go inside.
Logically, with a good thing in hand,
he would indeed share it with Elder Changfeng of his family.
Whether it was because of Elder Changfeng’s terrifying power,
or the absolute authority he held,
or perhaps because of filial duty,
he should make his way into the courtyard.
However, just before entering, he began to hesitate.
The main reason was the deep impression Elder Changfeng had left on him; it was quite formidable.
Even now, without having seen Patriarch Changfeng,
just standing outside the courtyard was enough to make him feel a trepidation and unease.
“Perhaps… I should just let it be?”
“Or maybe, have a servant deliver this Fu Rong cake?”
In Luo Yao’s heart,
a sense of retreat suddenly arose.
But just as he was about to turn around and bolt,
the closely shut wooden doors of the courtyard, exuding a mystical and ancient aura, suddenly opened.
As the doors were opened by a mysterious force,
a series of creaking noises followed.
“What are you doing outside?”
“Aren’t you coming in?”
A voice, deeply familiar as if etched into Luo Yao’s very soul, suddenly echoed in his mind.
Upon hearing the voice, an involuntary wry smile spread across Luo Yao’s face.
This voice, naturally, belonged to Patriarch Changfeng.
And now, with the courtyard’s wooden door ajar,
he, Luo Yao,
had already caught the attention of Patriarch Changfeng.
It seemed that his only option now was to enter the courtyard,
as he had no other choice left.
“If I must go in, then I’ll go in…”
Luo Yao gritted his teeth slightly before stepping forward, walking directly into the courtyard that seemed as unfathomable and terrifying as an abyss.
With each step Luo Yao took forward, his feelings of restlessness and trepidation increased.
“Elder… Elder Changfeng…”
Inside the courtyard,
beside a simple Stone Pavilion,
there stood Luo Yao, carrying a wooden box filled with Fu Rong cakes,
forcing a smile across his face.
He addressed the figure before him, dressed in plain white robes and emanating an air of celestial refinement, Elder Changfeng, with a low voice.
“You’ve come?”
Luo Changfeng glanced at Luo Yao, who seemed a bit uneasy standing beside him, and spoke in a low voice.
“Yes, I’ve come.”
“Patriarch Changfeng, this time I’ve brought you some good things.”
“This confectionery in my hands is called Fu Rong cake.”
“Its taste is very delightful.”
“So, I thought to buy some for you to try.”
Luo Yao took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled,
He placed the box of hibiscus cakes he held in his hands on the stone table.
Afterward, he slightly bowed his head.
He did not continue speaking.
“Hibiscus cakes?”
Luo Changfeng, upon hearing this, silently glanced at Luo Yao next to him, who was bowing his head, staying quiet, and saying nothing.
Then, he stretched out his hand.
He opened the box that contained the hibiscus cakes.
The appearance of the cakes was very ordinary.
No different from the common cakes seen everywhere.
As for the taste…
One naturally had to taste it to pass any judgment.
Taste is not something that can be discerned by eyes alone.
“Alright, since this is a gesture of your filial piety, I’ll give it a try.”
Luo Changfeng said softly.
Then, he picked up a piece of the hibiscus cake.
He put it in his mouth and tasted it.
Initially, Luo Changfeng’s emotions remained calm and unchanged.
As he chewed, his emotions started to change slightly.
In the end, although there seemed to be no significant change in his expression,
His heart was certainly not as calm as it appeared.
“The taste of these cakes is indeed quite good.”
“Their name… hibiscus cakes?”
Luo Changfeng looked calmly at Luo Yao by his side.
And Luo Yao, the young fellow, acknowledged with a somewhat anxious and fearful nod.
“Alright, considering the merit of these cakes,”
“if you face any troublesome matters in the future that you find difficult to deal with, come find me.”
“I will help you resolve them.”
After saying this, Luo Changfeng waved his hand to signal that Luo Yao could leave.
Seeing this, Luo Yao felt as if a weight was lifted from his shoulders.
He turned around and scurried away from the courtyard.
Only after he had left this courtyard,
and arrived outside of it, did Luo Yao gradually regain his composure.
“I’m out?”
“Patriarch Changfeng is actually this approachable this time?”
Luo Yao silently turned his head back and looked towards the yard where Elder Changfeng resided with an expression of slight disbelief.
One should know that every time he entered Elder Changfeng’s yard in the past,
he would undergo an inhuman ordeal.
Although those ordeals were for his own good.
“Could it be the effect of the hibiscus cakes?”
As he pondered,
Luo Yao couldn’t help but nod to himself.
Now, it seemed this was the only explanation that made sense.
“It appears the hibiscus cakes are indeed a fine delicacy…”
…
As Luo Yao gradually walked away,
deep within the Luo Family Ancestral Land, inside the courtyard, under the Stone Pavilion,
Luo Changfeng’s gaze slowly shifted back to the stone table, to the wooden box, to the neatly arranged pieces of hibiscus cakes that looked so simple yet tasted surprisingly delightful.
“This thing…”
“How is it made?”
“The taste is indeed quite astonishing.”
While musing, Luo Changfeng picked up another piece of hibiscus cake and put it in his mouth.
Especially when he paired a bite of the cake with a sip of tea,
then quietly savored the tranquility and peace of the moment.
Life couldn’t get much better.
“This time, that youngster Luo Yao did well, bringing back these tasty hibiscus cakes.”
“But more importantly,”
“his way of handling the situation with the Dong family…”
“was indeed quite commendable.”
Luo Changfeng quietly placed the ceramic tea cup he held down.
Afterward, he gently narrowed his eyes.
He silently gazed in the direction where the young Luo Yao had departed.
The affair with the Dong family in Qingshi City,
he naturally knew about it.
He was also aware of the problem with Dong Liang.
Originally, he had been pondering
how that youngster Luo Yao would handle the matter.
But to his surprise…
The issue was resolved in such a way.
