Capítulo 1849: Chapter 1849: Why Do You Say That?
Luo Ziling believed that if Ling Ruonan entered politics, she would definitely do well.
However, he feared that once she was involved in political circles, she might be corrupted and prioritize benefits over family ties, just like the other people he ca across, such as Ling Zhengping, Ling Zhenghui, and Yang Yunlin.
The others, including Ling Mingrui, Ling Jinhua, Yang Yuanshan, Fang Xiang, and Fang Zhonghua, were not much different. They were too slick and often prioritized interests above family, and he feared Ling Ruonan would beco like them.
Ouyang Feifei had no idea what Luo Ziling was thinking, nor did she ask. Instead, she focused on drinking her porridge.
She thought Luo Ziling was touched by her words and was lost in thought.
“You seem to hope that my mom leaves Northern Group to enter politics,” Luo Ziling joked in the end, “Do you want to annex Northern Group?”
“Why would you think that?” Ouyang Feifei looked at Luo Ziling seriously, “When did I say I wanted to annex Northern Group? I have no such ambition or capability. If your mom has that ambition, she might annex other groups. There are really not many who could be her rivals; I’m definitely not one of them. Playing her assistant role suits more,” she said earnestly to Luo Ziling.
Hearing Ouyang Feifei speak so highly of Ling Ruonan made Luo Ziling a little happy.
“I think your mom should find a trusted person to manage Northern Group and retire behind the scenes, like the empress dowager, and focus on her political career. Eventually, you could take over Northern Group, or let soone you trust beco its CEO. Wouldn’t that cover all bases nicely?” Ouyang Feifei advised Luo Ziling, “Ling Family has such great resources. This is a perfect opportunity. I reckon it should be utilized. I’m not the right person to discuss this with your mom, but I think you should talk to her about it, as others might not get through.”
“If my mom becos a senior official in the future, does that an I’ll beco a second-generation official and can flaunt my power everywhere?”
Ouyang Feifei rolled her eyes at Luo Ziling, ignoring his random imagination.
Luo Ziling suddenly thought of Wang Feiyang, that very ambitious and shrewd young girl.
Comparatively, Ling Ruonan was more suitable for politics than Wang Feiyang.
Ling Ruonan wouldn’t use unscrupulous ans to achieve her goals.
But Wang Feiyang definitely would.
From the fact that she sought him out last ti, willing to pay any price for their help, Luo Ziling could conclude this.
Furthermore, Luo Ziling even thought Wang Feiyang would offer the sa to others.
As long as she thought the rewards were worth the cost, she would pursue it.
In comparison, Ling Ruonan holding a key position is more suitable and beneficial for the people and the country than Wang Feiyang.
Wang Feiyang, who is willing to pay any price, might do things that harm the country’s and people’s interests to achieve her own goals.
“When I et her, I’ll ask her,” Luo Ziling smiled, “She said she might co over tomorrow.”
Ouyang Feifei hadn’t had the chance to respond when Luo Ziling’s phone rang.
Luo Ziling checked and saw it was Ling Ruonan calling. He then chuckled self-mockingly, “Speak of the devil, and the devil appears!”
“Mom,” he answered the call in front of Ouyang Feifei, “calling this late at night to check in?”
“You’re not asleep, are you?” Ling Ruonan ignored Luo Ziling’s teasing, “Are you available to talk?”
“Ouyang Feifei dragged out for a midnight snack. If it’s not classified, I can talk.”
His words earned him a side-eye from Ouyang Feifei.
“Out? Then let’s talk later.”
“Alright! We’ll definitely be back in twenty minutes.”
“Okay, I’ll call again in twenty minutes.”
After hanging up, Luo Ziling apologetically told Ouyang Feifei, “Let’s eat quickly; I still need to take my mom’s call later.”
Ouyang Feifei knew that Ling Ruonan’s call was regarding sothing important, so she didn’t mind and quickly finished her porridge.
After finishing the porridge and a few snacks, Ouyang Feifei stood up, “Let’s go, back to the hotel.”
As they were taking the elevator back to the hotel, Luo Ziling sent a ssage to Ling Ruonan, saying he would be back in the room shortly.
Two minutes after returning to his room, Ling Ruonan’s call ca.
Upon knowing Luo Ziling was back in his room, Ling Ruonan asked softly, “Why did you send Haining back to Yanjing? Ling Zhengping has arrived in Qiantang this afternoon but couldn’t find your people.”
“He wanted my life; to ss with him a bit doesn’t matter, right?” Luo Ziling replied nonchalantly, “I hoped he would go directly to you for people. Then, you could scold him severely to vent so anger.”
“I’ve already sent Haining back to Wu Yanning. No matter what, Wu Yanning bears us no malice. It’s also necessary to save her so face.” After speaking of this, Ling Ruonan inford Luo Ziling, “Your grandfather has agreed to let Ling Haining and Ling Haijun follow you and work with you. Ling Zhenghui agreed, but Ling Zhengping hasn’t replied yet. He probably returned directly to Yangcheng.”
“Does he think the matter is settled then?”
“He can’t leave his post for a long ti, or things get tricky. Neither your grandfather nor your great-grandfather would wish for him to face any problems. For now, at least, Ling Family’s future depends on him,” Ling Ruonan explained before adding, “Tomorrow, he’ll definitely contact with his reply. He will surely agree to let Ling Zhengping follow you; otherwise, he won’t find any other way to compensate.”
“Mom, I think you should take the opportunity to demand a higher administrative level and an official position.”
“Why do you say that?”
“Mom, we talked about this last ti, right?”
Ling Ruonan remained silent for a while before gently saying, “Let’s discuss this when we et. Tomorrow morning, I’ll co to Yuezhou. I’ve already booked the flight. You don’t have to pick up; you can hang out. By noon, I should be in Yuezhou City. In the afternoon, I’ll et with them to resolve matters, and we can go back to Yanjing together.”
“Alright,” Luo Ziling agreed.
He understood there was no free ti left for him and Yang Qingyin; if they squeezed out any, it would be only a few hours in the morning.
The romantic trip to the South ended early due to the successive arrivals of Ouyang Feifei and Ling Ruonan.
However, Luo Ziling did not bla them. He even held no grudge against Ouyang Feifei.
Because, what Ouyang Feifei told him today was important enough.
