Chapter 1421: Chapter 1421: I Never Need a Reason to Do Things
Luo Ziling left Dragon Rise when it was already dusk.
Yang Xiaodong ca to pick him up.
Yang Xiaodong seed very pleased when he learned that Luo Ziling was going to have dinner with Ouyang Feifei in the evening.
Luo Ziling felt a bit scornful of this fellow who could forget his principles at the sight of beauty.
When Luo Ziling contacted Ouyang Feifei in the afternoon, she asked him to co directly to her place, saying that she would order dinner.
Luo Ziling was not very willing to go at first, but after thinking it over, he did not refuse in the end.
On the way there, snowflakes began to drift down again.
There was a strong wind at noon, but as it approached the evening, the wind died down.
Those with experience knew that a heavy snowfall was soon upon them.
Yesterday’s light snow was rely the prelude to this heavy snowfall.
“The sky shows signs of snowing late into the night; can one still have a drink?” Seeing Luo Ziling co in, Ouyang Feifei, who had already returned ho earlier and changed into casual ho wear, asked with a smile, “I have so good wine from Yuezhou.”
“Since President Ouyang is in such a mood, then I shall accompany you for a drink,” Luo Ziling also joked: “With such a beautiful lady for company and such snowy scenery, drinking a few cups will surely be poetic.”
Ouyang Feifei rolled her eyes at him and said huffily, “All you know is sweet talk!”
As she spoke, she instructed Luo Ziling to fetch the jar of ten-year-aged carved liquor from Yuezhou.
After Luo Ziling broke the clay seal, he slled a fragrant aroma and couldn’t help exclaiming, “What fine wine! It seems I won’t stop until I’m fully drunk!”
Ouyang Feifei’s expression changed imdiately upon hearing that: “Drink less, don’t get drunk!”
“Afraid I’ll lose control when drunk?”
Ouyang Feifei’s expression turned ugly at once, but she did not respond to Luo Ziling’s words and instead went to prepare the bowls and plates.
Before long, the dishes they ordered were delivered, six dishes and two soups, perfectly filling the table.
Luo Ziling poured a bowl of wine for Ouyang Feifei and filled his own to the brim, then raised his glass and toasted: “Thank you for your fine wine.”
Seeing that Luo Ziling intended to drink it all in one gulp, Ouyang Feifei quickly intervened: “Drink slowly, today you can only have three bowls at the most.”
“Three bowls is only about a jin; do you think I can only drink that much?” Luo Ziling caught Ouyang Feifei’s hand that was preventing him from drinking.
“Drinking hurts the body!” Ouyang Feifei looked calmly at Luo Ziling, “You studied dicine and know not to drink too much.”
“Tell , what exactly happened after I got drunk that day.”
“I already told you, I was drunk too, I don’t know anything,” Ouyang Feifei was not surprised that Luo Ziling would bring up this issue again, and calmly replied, “So, I hope I won’t have to hear you ask about this again. It was just one ti you got drunk, it’s not like you stripped naked and… ran through the streets!”
Ouyang Feifei’s indifferent manner made Luo Ziling angry. He released her hand and said with a hint of annoyance, “I’ll find out everything, and if one day I discover that all of this was your doing, then…”
Ouyang Feifei raised her eyebrows but remained calm, “What will you do?”
“Forget it, let’s not talk about this,” Luo Ziling didn’t want to continue this topic with Ouyang Feifei, “What I ca here to tell you today is, I’m planning to invest in a film and dia company with Fang Dongxun. I want to know how much liquid fund I still have available to use?”
“About three billion,” Ouyang Feifei wasn’t surprised by Luo Ziling’s statent and answered calmly, “Since you guys want to invest in the entertainnt industry, I’m thinking of taking a stake as well. I wonder if that would be possible?”
“Why?”
“Because I have not ventured into that field before.”
“That’s not a reason!”
“It’s because I want to cooperate more with your Luo Family, the Fang Family, and other parties!”
“Alright, I accept your reason,” Luo Ziling nodded, “but I will still have to ask Fang Dongxun about this!”
“Indeed, I need to ask, but he will definitely agree!”
“Why are you so confident?” Luo Ziling was a bit surprised.
“The Fang Family is just making their stance clear, they are willing to cooperate with the Luo Family in any way. And they are most eager to see the addition of another power.” Ouyang Feifei said with a smile: “If nothing unexpected happens, Fang Dongxun will invite personally!”
No sooner had Ouyang Feifei finished speaking than her phone, which she had placed to one side, rang. She looked at the caller ID and said with a hint of pride: “Speak of Cao Cao, and Cao Cao arrives!”
“Fang Dongxun’s call?” Luo Ziling was sowhat astonished.
Ouyang Feifei nodded and then answered the call.
Luo Ziling could hear what Fang Dongxun was saying on the phone, and it was actually what Ouyang Feifei had just guessed: inviting her to invest in the entertainnt industry.
On the call, Fang Dongxun told Ouyang Feifei that he had already discussed cooperation thods with Luo Ziling, but he hoped that the Ouyang Family could also participate.
Ouyang Feifei didn’t agree imdiately; she told Fang Dongxun that she would consider the matter carefully and get back to him as soon as possible.
After hanging up Fang Dongxun’s call, Ouyang Feifei looked at Luo Ziling with a teasing smile: “Never underestimate these pampered young masters; they are not as simple as you think. Even the young mbers of the Ling Family and Chen Family, who have been miserably bullied by you, should not be taken lightly. By the way, you might not know yet, Chen Jiahai is preparing to be discharged from the hospital!”
“He has recovered?”
“Almost!” Ouyang Feifei nodded, “But the news is tightly sealed. I also found out about this inadvertently.”
“Hehe!” Luo Ziling chuckled, unsure of how to respond.
“With his health recovered, your future conflicts with them will be even more intense. Moreover, you and Fang Dongxun just bullied Chen Jiahu!”
“That’s all thanks to you,” Luo Ziling glared at Ouyang Feifei irritably, “Without you, I wouldn’t have had a conflict with him.”
“Then you should thank !”
“Thank ?”
“Yes, thank !” Ouyang Feifei nodded seriously. “If you hadn’t had the conflict with Chen Jiahai, you wouldn’t have gained as much as you did.”
“What have I gained?”
“You figure it out!”
“I’m not a businessman; I’m just a student, I’m not as complicated as you think!”
“You’ll soon beco a businessman!” Ouyang Feifei looked at Luo Ziling with a teasing expression, “You’re already on the brink of transforming into one!”
“My grandfather hopes that I can revive traditional dicine, and I’ll continue to focus on that in the future. I must do what I promised my grandfather! So, I won’t beco a businessman; a businessman prioritizes profit over parting.”
Ouyang Feifei still looked at Luo Ziling with a teasing smile, “You’re only twenty-one years old, quite young, and you have plenty of ti and opportunities. Also, I really like ‘The Ballad of the Pipa Player’ as well!”
“I couldn’t tell!” Luo Ziling chuckled.
“A businessman prioritizes profit over parting” is a line from Bai Juyi’s long poem, “The Ballad of the Pipa Player.”
“Hmph!” Ouyang Feifei rolled her eyes.
“Well, if I die, then everything is gone!”
Ouyang Feifei did not expect Luo Ziling to say such a thing, and she was stunned for a mont, taking a while to respond.
“If soone wants to kill you, you find a way to make them lose the ability to do so.” As she said this, Ouyang Feifei’s expression turned resolute, “If needed, I will help you with all my might!”
“Why?”
“I never need a reason for what I do!” Ouyang Feifei looked deeply into Luo Ziling’s eyes.
“…”
