Chapter 1376


    "You seem to have changed recently, especially your attitude towards Gentro. You used to ignore


    him, but recently you have been frequently epting his invitations, and got close to him. However,


    you also told me that you didn''t like Gentro at all. I want to know why?"


    "I, I..." Joey faltered and didn''t know what to say.


    Fade rubbed her head and continued softly, "Is there a need to hide anything from your brother? If


    you tell me about it, I can help you think of other ways and solve the problem faster, right?"


    "Uh..." Joey fell silent for a while. Then, as if she had made up her mind, she nodded as she turned


    to him. "Fade, you''re right. I shouldn''t have kept it from you. I''ll tell you about it."


    "Sure, I''m listening." He nodded his head.


    She took a deep breath, and finally said, "Well, actually, I approached Gentro to find out about my


    parents."


    "What!" When he heard this, Fade felt surprised.


    The both of them were orphans who had been adopted by the old fogey. They had lived with him


    ever since they were young, and they didn''t know anything about their parents at all.


    Fade had never thought about looking for his parents. He also thought that Joey, like himself, did


    not care about hers.


    However, three years ago, it seemed that someone found Joey and revealed something about her


    parents. However, she was stopped by the old fogey back then, so she did not continue


    investigating that matter.


    Fade had thought that it was nothing. He didn''t expect that she had been keeping it in mind, and


    secretly followed up on it.


    "Does the old fogey know about this?" He asked.


    She shook her head and replied, "Three years ago, Master drove the man away. I knew that he


    didn''t want me to know about this, so I kept it a secret from him about investigating my parents. I


    don''t want him to feel angry or sad."


    "The reason why I ran away from Tianwu Mountain was because I found some information about


    my parents, so I wanted to investigate it myself in Capital City."


    Fade immediately guessed, "And the information you obtained has something to do with Centro?"


    Joey nodded. "Yes, it has something to do with him. Or to be more precise, my mother might be


    rted to the Luo family." "It''s just that I couldn''t continue investigating it myself anymore as I had


    no more clues, so I wanted to try to get some clues from Gentro in order to continue investigating


    my mother," she finished.


    Upon hearing this, Fade finally understood why she had suddenly changed during this period of


    time.


    After a moment of silence, he asked, "Now, what are you going to do?"


    She shook her head and answered, "l-l don''t know. I wanted to take my time to get closer to Gentro.


    However, it seems that there will be misunderstandings and trouble if I be close to him, so I


    can''t do anything about it."


    "Then why don''t you juste clean to Gentro, and ask the Luo family yourself?" He questioned.


    Joey shook her head as she responded, "I''ve tried to ask him about it, but he doesn''t seem to know


    much about anything. Moreover, it''s rted to the Luo family''s secrets and it appears that they don''t


    want to talk about it."


    "Oh... I see!" Fade paused, and then suggested, "I have a fairly good rtionship with Gentro. Why


    don''t we do it this way? I''ll take you directly to the Luo family and exin everything to them. Let''s


    see if the Luo family can give us some clues."


    "But, but..." She hesitated.

    "Joey, don''t worry. It''s good to have a try. Even if we don''t seed, we have nothing to lose either!"


    he reassured.


    "I... Um... Alright, Fade." After a moment of hesitation, she finally nodded and agreed.


    He smiled as he rubbed Joey''s head. "If anything happens in the future, don''t keep it to yourself. Tell


    me, and we will solve it together. Do you understand?"


    "Yes, I understand. Thank you, Fade!" Joey leaned into his embrace and smiled.


    The next day, Fade called Gentro and said that he wanted to visit the Luo family. At the same time,


    he also exined that he might need the help of the Luo family for something.


    Upon hearing this, Gentro was overjoyed and agreed immediately.


    Hence, the following day, Fade and Joey came to visit the Luo family together.


    As a first- ss family in Capital City, the Luo family lived in a huge mansion that was thousands of


    square metersrge. It was decorated with ck bricks and red tiles, inspired by the retro theme.


    The car stopped outside the courtyard and Gentro greeted them with a smile. Then, he brought


    Fade and Joey into the Luo family''s courtyard.


    The Luo family was indeed a first-ss family in Capital City. Although they were rich, the interior of


    their mansion was not ostentatious. It looked elegant and was filled with hints of traditional Chinese


    culture.


    When they entered the living room, the servants served them hot tea.


    They chatted as they enjoyed the tea.


    A few minutester, a servant came to report, "The Old Master is here!"


    Centro stood up and walked over. Fade and Joey also put down their cups and stood up with a


    smile.


    Immediately, the two saw Centro walking in as he held an elder draped in green robes.


    Behind the elder, there were two middle-aged men in their forties and fifties. One was dressed in a


    suit and leather shoes, with a calm expression on his face; the other was dressed in luxury leisure


    clothes, and he appeared to be quite young.


    After they sat down, Centro immediately introduced them to Fade and Joey. "Mr. Chen, Joey. This is


    my grandfather Dormer, this is my father Leroy, and this is my uncle Borton."


    Then, he introduced Fade and Joey. "Grandpa, Dad, Uncle Borton, this is Fade, Mr Chen, whom I


    have told you about before. This is Mr. Chen''s sister, and also my ssmate, Joey."


    When he introduced Joey, Centra''s tone sounded much more joyful and his eyes kept looking at his


    father and grandfather, as if he wanted to observe their attitudes towards her.


    After the introduction, Fade took the initiative to greet them, "I''m Fade. Nice to meet you, Dormer,


    Leroy, and Borton. Thank you for inviting us here!"


    Joey also greeted them.


    Dormer nodded and said with a smile, "Mr. Chen, you don''t have to be so polite. You are young and


    promising, and very strong indeed. You are the most influential person in Capital City. It''s our


    blessing to have you here as our guest."
