She reached out and grabbed Losi's hand. Under Losi's panicked and confused gaze, Cheng Qing said, "If you want to announce our relationship, I will cooperate."
Luo Xi stood there, stunned, even though their relationship was now official. However, Cheng Qing had never agreed to make their relationship public. In Cheng Qing's words, announcing their relationship would be unfair to both herself and Cheng Qing, who was about to return.
Why start something when people are destined to leave and there's no ending? Especially since the two have a large fanbase, their eventual separation will inevitably lead to another major conflict.
Not to mention, when the other Cheng Qing returns, how will she face the turbulent online public opinion?
Making their relationship public is a lose-lose situation for both of them.
However, Losi wanted to go public, even if there was no happy ending. She wanted everyone to know that they had been together and wanted everyone's blessings.
I want more...
Everyone remember, there is a... Teacher Cheng in this world.
The decision not to disclose it is Cheng Qing's rationality and maturity as a teacher, as well as her responsibility and principle towards her body.
But now, she tells herself she can go public.
What about reason? Maturity? Responsibility? Principles?
Those things... are no longer important.
Amidst the fine white snow, Losi suddenly broke into a smile, her eyes crinkling as if filled with starlight. She said, "We don't have to make it public, but you and I will go home for the New Year to wish my parents a happy new year."
Cheng Qing was stunned. Luo Xi wasn't in a hurry for an answer; she just smiled at Cheng Qing.
Under such gazes, Cheng Qing crumbled. Unable to refuse, she could only give a helpless smile, as if admitting defeat, and say, "Okay."
Let me be the protagonist in your life.
Warm your castle
Savoring the beauty of life
This is the last line of the song...

A timely snowfall promises a bumper harvest.
The snowfall in Shenzhen was rather short-lived and did not affect life in the city.
However, due to the cold weather, Shenzhen residents, who are used to wearing only a coat every winter, had to shiver and put on down jackets.
Finally, under Cheng Qing's gaze, Losi took off her thin knitted cardigan and put on a light down jacket.
Seeing that Luo Xi was wearing a cream-colored long down jacket, Cheng Qing found himself a black parka.
Losi glanced at it and asked unhappily, "You also have a long black down jacket."
Cheng Qing ignored her, took the gift she had bought yesterday, closed the door, and went to press the elevator button.
Lori scoffed and rolled her eyes: "You won't cherish what you have, you heartless woman."
Cheng Qing sighed and turned to look at her with a smile, saying, "I'm going to meet your parents and brother. Wearing the same clothes as you would be asking for trouble, wouldn't it?"
We haven't even gotten their parents' permission yet! Showing up in matching outfits, is this some kind of protest?
Losi: "..."
Seeing that Luo Xi was no longer speaking, Cheng Qing led her downstairs. Fang Silei heard that Cheng Qing and Luo Xi were actually going to visit Luo's parents during the Chinese New Year, and thought she was very brave, so she personally drove over to take the two of them to the Luo family.
Fang Silei was gloating the whole way.
"Teacher Cheng, is the gift you bought expensive enough?"
Cheng Qing said, "I spend half of the money I earn on gifts."
Fang Silei chuckled: "What if someone asks you how much money you have to get married? What will you do then?"
Cheng Qing choked for a moment, and Luo Xi scoffed, "I'll marry her."
Fang Silei: "..."
After a moment of silence in the car, Fang Silei changed the subject, saying, "Now that we've met, when are we going to go public?"
Luo Xi just snorted and didn't reply, nor did she let Cheng Qing reply.
Fang Silei: "..."
Losie's apartment wasn't far from her parents' house, only a 20-minute drive away.
When Cheng Qing saw the car drive into the gate of an extremely luxurious residential area, her heart skipped a beat. It wasn't just that Luo Xi was rich; her family's wealth seemed to far exceed what she had ever imagined.
However, since it was mentioned vaguely in the joke, and Cheng Qing was already prepared for Luo Xi's wealth, he wasn't that curious about just how rich the Luo family really was.
The Luo family's villa was located a bit further inside. When the car pulled up to the gate, Cheng Qing suddenly saw three tall men standing there.
For a moment, Cheng Qing fell silent.
After a while, she asked Rossi beside her, "Are those three your brothers?"
Losi replied happily, "Yeah!"
Cheng Qing: "...You didn't say you have three older brothers."
With a look of innocent confusion, Losi asked, "What's there to say about my three older brothers?"
Cheng Qing turned to look at the three brothers outside the door who seemed to want to confront her, and wanted to ask: Can't you see their unfriendly expressions?

Chapter 150
The Luo family is a well-known and powerful family in Shenzhen, with businesses all over the country.
Although the Luo couple's marriage was a business arrangement, they were exceptionally loving after marriage and had four children together.
Because the couple both dreamed of having a daughter, they decided to have a fourth child, Losi, after having three sons.
The couple, who had a sincere dream, naturally doted on their daughter. Her three older brothers also granted her every wish from a young age.
It's true that Losie is a proud girl, but that confidence is something she's had since birth. It's something her parents and siblings have nurtured little by little over the past 20 years.
The car slowly stopped in front of the gate of the Luo family villa. The three older brothers sneered and squinted at Cheng Qing, who was sitting upright in the car window.
Cheng Qing remained calm on the surface, but a chill ran down her spine inside.
Lori was delighted to see her three older brothers. She happily opened the car door and ran to them, saying, "Hello, eldest brother! Hello, second brother! Hello, third brother!"
Looking at their stunningly beautiful younger sister, her face beaming in the sunlight, the three older brothers were filled with worry. Such a wonderful, such a lovely sister! And she'd been snatched away like that! How awful!
Second brother Luo Mojin looked at his sister with relief and said with concern, "I'll ask her how she is when she comes back this time."
The eldest brother, Luo Moxiao, smiled slightly, appearing mature and gentle: "Let's go! Mom and Dad are waiting."
Third Brother Luo Moyu: "Come on, come on, Third Brother even bought you a gift."
Luo Xi nodded happily, then immediately remembered that Teacher Cheng was still in the car and quickly turned around to open the car door: "Qingqing, why aren't you getting out of the car?"
Cheng Qing looked up at her with a smile: "Let me take a moment."
Losi: "?" Slowly?
You can't hide forever.
Cheng Qing took a breath and looked at Fang Silei, who was gloating in the front seat. She finally understood why Fang Silei had been so excited the whole way.
Cheng Qing couldn't help but give her a warning look, but Fang Silei wasn't afraid and made a throat-slitting gesture.
Cheng Qing: "..."
Cheng Qing straightened her clothes, then got out of the car, raised her bright eyes to look at the three men opposite her, and gave them a gentle smile, saying, "Nice to meet you, I am Cheng Qing."
The three men had been wearing forced smiles ever since their sister left them and turned to open the car door. When they heard Cheng Qing's words, they only managed a slight twitch of their lips.
"Hello, my name is Luo Moxiao, and I am Luo Xi's older brother."
"My name is Luo Mojin."
"My name is Luo Moyu, and I am her third brother."
Their gazes met in the air, and suddenly lightning flashed and thunder roared.
Losi couldn't discern anything from the tense atmosphere. In her heart, her third brother was a gentle brother, and her teacher was a gentle teacher.
Gentleness upon gentleness... wouldn't that be gentleness upon gentleness?
Cheng Qing felt a little guilty, turned around and took a bunch of gifts from the car, saying, "This is my first time here, I didn't know what everyone liked, so I just bought a few things."
The brothers gave insincere smiles: "You're too kind, you're too kind."
So, after exchanging a few more perfunctory words, they headed inside to greet Luo Xi and Cheng Qing.
Fang Silei really wanted to see more of this kind of scene, especially the scene of Teacher Chen being humiliated, but the Luo family members were not easy to deal with. Especially since this variety show had caused Luo Xi such a big loss, if she went in to watch the show, she might very well lose her life before it was even over.
Therefore, after seeing the scene of Cheng Qing's first meeting with her three brothers, she could already imagine what would happen next, so she happily drove off.
The Luo couple were helping the housekeeper decorate the living room when they heard the sound at the door. Their eyes lit up and they both looked at Luo Xi as she entered.
Then the couple happily greeted her: "Baby, you're back."
Losi blushed and whispered, "Don't call me Bao'er."
Luo's mother smiled at her, knowing why she was embarrassed. Thinking this, she looked up at Cheng Qing next to Luo Xi and saw that the unfamiliar woman in front of her immediately stood up straight when her gaze swept over her.
Clearly, even this mature and composed teacher on television was nervous.
Luo's mother smiled reassuringly and said, "I am Luo's mother."
Cheng Qing immediately greeted her, "Hello, Auntie, my name is Cheng Qing."
Mrs. Luo looked her up and down with satisfaction and said, "Please sit down since you're here! Why did you bring a gift?"
Cheng Qing immediately brought up a set of cosmetics she had bought, which was the skincare set that Luo Xi said her mother liked the most.
Cheng Qing wasn't sure if the other person liked it or not, so she could only say, "This is my first time here, and I really don't know what to buy. I hope you won't mind this gift."
Luo's mother was very gentle. She only glanced at the cosmetics in Cheng Qing's hand and knew that Luo Xi had taught her to do it. She thought to herself that her daughter was thoughtful, but couldn't help but give Luo Xi a coquettish look.
