Chapter 1276: Chapter 1276: The Informant
The group of five left Qiantang East Station by car, found a nearby restaurant to have lunch, and then headed straight towards Yuezhou City.
When they arrived in Yuezhou, it was only three-thirty in the afternoon.
Yang Xiaodong and Wang Zhenjun had been designated by Ling Ruonan to follow Luo Ziling, and they had no resistance to the idea.
Although protecting Luo Ziling was completely trivial compared to what they used to do, this kind of life was much more relaxed than the tense life they used to lead.
Luo Ziling ca to the South, and they followed, which also allowed them to enjoy sightseeing.
Over the past few years, they had always been in the military and had almost no chance to go out for fun.
The beautiful landscapes of the South remained picturesque, even in winter, so they were quite enthusiastic.
Especially Wang Zhenjun, as Ye Xiaoli, the goddess in his heart, was there, so his mood was even better.
As soon as the car left the highway, he started clamoring about going to Xianheng Hotel in the evening to have a drink, eat fennel beans, and take pictures with Kong Yiji.
Yang Qingyin and Ye Xiaoli were also quite eager, and Yang Xiaodong reluctantly said that he would continue to be the third wheel for the two couples.
When the car was about to enter Yuezhou City, Luo Ziling made a call to his grandfather Luo Liansheng.
To his surprise, the call went through.
“Ling’er,” as soon as the call connected, Luo Liansheng’s kind voice ca from the handset, “Have you arrived at Yuezhou?”
“Grandpa, we just got off the highway, about to enter the city. Where are you?” Luo Ziling’s voice betrayed his unstoppable excitent as he asked, “Grandpa, where are you? I’ll co find you in a bit.”
“I’m in Jinling today. If nothing goes wrong, I should arrive in Yuezhou by tomorrow afternoon or evening at the latest,” Luo Liansheng laughed on the phone. “You go have fun around for now, and tomorrow, grandpa will co find you and take you back to the old house to have a look.”
“So you haven’t co over yet,” Luo Ziling felt a hint of disappointnt, but after hearing that his grandfather was staying in Jinling, he understood that it probably involved his father Luo Xusheng, and asked, “Grandpa, did you go see my dad?”
“I ca here for so business,” Luo Liansheng didn’t specify, “So matters, we’ll talk when I get to Yuezhou. Mm, I’ll definitely take you back to the old house to have a look. It’s been over two decades since I visited. Not sure if the old house has collapsed or been taken over by soone else.”
“Grandpa, do we not have other family mbers in Yuezhou?” Hearing his grandfather’s tone, Luo Ziling had an uneasy feeling, “Haven’t you been in touch with them?”
“Let’s talk about these things when I co over, as the matter is a bit complicated,” Luo Liansheng knew Luo Ziling had company, and it was not convenient for him to say more, so he didn’t elaborate further, “Have a good ti tonight and tomorrow. You can go have a drink at Xianheng Hotel, and in the morning, you could visit Mr. Lu Xun’s forr residence or take a stroll in Shen Garden. When grandpa cos over, we’ll go to other places. Yuezhou City is quite small, but it does have so scenic spots. You can see them pretty quickly just browsing through.”
“Okay,” Luo Ziling instantly felt better, “Grandpa, let know when you’re coming, and I’ll co to pick you up.”
“Alright,” Luo Liansheng replied, “I will tell you the ti and train number when the high-speed train is due to arrive.”
The high-speed trains from Yanjing to Yuezhou are limited, and the titable was not convenient. Plus, with Ye Xiaoli arranging for a car in Hangzhou, they decided to get off at Qiantang. There were many high-speed trains from Jinling to Ningbo and Wenzhou, which were much more convenient than from Yanjing.
While Luo Ziling was on the phone, everyone else in the car was listening attentively.
After Luo Ziling finished the call, Yang Qingyin said with a smile, “Ziling, your grandpa must be a native of Yuezhou. He must be very familiar with Yuezhou’s culture and well aware of those famous scenic spots. Let him guide us around later, and we can even save on a tour guide.”
“Yeah, I think he’ll be better than a tour guide,” Luo Ziling responded with a smile and then asked Yang Qingyin, “It’s still early, we can get to the city center by four o’clock. Should we go sowhere else to play?”
“How about we go to Shen Garden?” Yang Qingyin was in a pretty good mood and imdiately made a suggestion after hearing Luo Ziling’s words, “I specifically paid attention to Shen Garden when I was looking at the guide. It’s a very small garden, and we can finish touring it in no more than an hour.”
“Then let’s go!” Luo Ziling agreed imdiately.
Ye Xiaoli and Wang Zhenjun also quickly voiced their approval, only Yang Xiaodong was sowhat reluctant in his heart.
Everyone knew what Shen Garden represented – it was a place commorating the love story of Lu You and Tang Wan.
Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin were a couple, and Wang Zhenjun and Ye Xiaoli were about to beco one. Only he was alone, so he felt a bit upset. He secretly called Wang Qing during a stop, asking him to check if Ouyang Feifei would be willing to co to Yuezhou for a visit.
Wang Qing imdiately knew that Luo Ziling was in Yuezhou with Yang Xiaodong and promised to ask Ouyang Feifei later.
Wang Qing’s reply ca soon.
When Yang Xiaodong parked the car and was about to et up with the others to buy tickets, Wang Qing called back.
“The lady said that she should be free the day after tomorrow. If you’re still in Yuezhou, she will co,” Wang Qing relayed Ouyang Feifei’s decision to Yang Xiaodong and also told him their current location, “We’re in Zhonghai.”
“Alright then, co over at that ti. I think we will definitely still be in Yuezhou the day after tomorrow,” Yang Xiaodong said, then added mysteriously, “If Ouyang Feifei doesn’t co, she will definitely regret it. This is Mr. Luo’s old ho, and they are going to the old house.”
“I got it!” Wang Qing understood Yang Xiaodong’s implications.
After the phone call, Yang Xiaodong’s mood was notably different.
But he also felt a bit guilty.
Because he knew if Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin found out that he had invited Ouyang Feifei, it would be troubleso.
Feeling sowhat uneasy, he secretly sent a ssage to Ouyang Feifei, hinting at this concern.
Upon hearing from Wang Qing about Yang Xiaodong’s words, Ouyang Feifei imdiately knew that Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin had made plans to visit Yuezhou.
She instantly beca a bit annoyed.
Luo Ziling, not yet fully recovered, had secretly gone out to have fun with another woman behind her back, and of course, it irritated her.
She was also aware of what could happen when two people went out to have fun together, and it was not sothing she was willing to accept.
Thus, she made up her mind to head to Yuezhou as soon as possible.
She understood Yang Xiaodong’s reminder.
She planned to send a ssage to Luo Ziling tomorrow, saying she wanted to visit Yuezhou these next few days, and ask whether Luo Ziling would be there.
