Capítulo 1994: Chapter 1994: Ouyang Feifei Stirring Up Trouble Again
(Chapter Eight)
Though Wuyue felt conflicted inside, she knew that right now, she had to wholeheartedly help Luo Ziling with his tasks.
At the very least, she needed to make up for so of the mistakes she made before.
The thoughts of a woman are always complicated, and Wuyue was no exception.
Even though she wasn’t willing to stand by Luo Ziling as Ling Ruonan suggested, in a role that couldn’t be seen, managing affairs for him all her life, she couldn’t help but fall for Luo Ziling. This liking was uncontrollable; even though she knew it probably wouldn’t end well, she still fell for him.
So today, when she was alone with Luo Ziling, she held so expectations, and even thought if Luo Ziling made a request, she might not refuse. She was willing to manage affairs for him all her life, and she knew it was an imnse honor.
However, she wasn’t content with having no status for life.
She was full of gratitude towards Ling Ruonan and admired her greatly, even sowhat seeing Ling Ruonan as a mother figure.
She had no parents anymore, and Ling Ruonan treated her very well, with a lot of trust.
A significant reason she devoted herself without expecting a return in serving Ling Ruonan was this mother-daughter-like affection.
Luo Ziling treated her well too, but it was more of a sibling-like affection, not much of romantic feelings; Wuyue was aware of this.
There were too many won around Luo Ziling, all outstanding, whether it was Yang Qingyin or Ouyang Feifei. Before them, she could only feel ashad. The other won with ambiguous relations with Luo Ziling, Chen Xiaoyi, Ouyang Huihui, Dai Shulan, and Lin Lan, were also impressive. Comparing herself to them, Wuyue knew she lacked advantages in all aspects. Her biggest disadvantage was her age; she was several years older than Luo Ziling.
Therefore, when she had expectations towards Luo Ziling, she felt terribly awkward, thinking herself quite foolish.
But feelings are often uncontrollable, arising blindly.
Having been by Ling Ruonan’s side for so many years, Luo Ziling was the first man to make her heart flutter. It never happened before.
Luo Ziling’s father, Luo Xusheng, was also remarkable for deceiving an excellent woman like Ling Ruonan, but when Wuyue saw Luo Xusheng, she didn’t have any special feelings.
Sotis she thought, she must cherish her feelings, and having rarely liked a man, she should give him everything.
But sotis, she felt unwilling.
The thoughts of an aging remaining woman are sotis impossible to figure out even if you think hard.
At least, sitting in front of her, Luo Ziling had no idea Wuyue thought so much.
Luo Ziling indeed wanted to transfer the assets controlled by Ouyang Feifei to Wuyue’s na; in his heart, Wuyue was one of his own, soone he could completely trust.
Ouyang Feifei and Yang Qingyin, alike in Luo Ziling’s mind, had almost the sa status.
He considered them his own, but the aning of being his own was different for Wuyue.
Wuyue was the one helping him with tasks, without much independence to a certain extent, but Ouyang Feifei and Yang Qingyin were very independent. They had an equal relationship with him, whereas Wuyue had a subordinate relationship, so he trusted Wuyue more.
Moreover, he didn’t want the assets to be so intimately tied to Ouyang Feifei, entrusting his tens of billions of estates to her managent.
Luo Ziling thought, even if he married Ouyang Feifei later, they should still maintain financial independence. He had no expectations for Ouyang Feifei’s assets and didn’t want their financial matters to beco entangled.
In a word, many tis Luo Ziling’s thoughts were very complicated, so complicated that even he couldn’t fully understand them.
Upon fully understanding Luo Ziling’s intentions, Wuyue felt a bit happy.
She liked being trusted, especially by soone she liked; it was a great honor.
She also secretly resolved to achieve sothing in investnt and financial managent, even if she couldn’t surpass Ouyang Feifei, she wanted to match her.
No matter what, she had to help Luo Ziling manage the family assets well and be a good housekeeper.
The late-night al ended with each person lost in their own thoughts.
It’s true, the late-night snacks in Jinling tasted really good, truly living up to its reputation; anyway, Luo Ziling was thoroughly satisfied with the food.
Wuyue also had a good appetite, ensuring Luo Ziling’s safety was physically demanding and consud a lot, she didn’t bother acting ladylike in front of Luo Ziling, so she ate heartily.
The two ended up spending over five hundred yuan on the late-night al, a portion an ordinary person would need at least six or seven people to consu.
After settling the bill, they prepared to walk back to their accommodation.
This was an idea suggested by Luo Ziling, who recomnded walking to digest the food.
Wuyue naturally had no objections.
Leaving the snack shop, she continued to play the role of Luo Ziling’s girlfriend.
Adjusting her mindset, her role as Luo Ziling’s girlfriend ca more naturally.
She continued to hold Luo Ziling’s arm and walked slowly forward, though she dared not let him touch sensitive areas of her body again—although she didn’t dislike such contact. Who knew, after walking for a bit, Luo Ziling withdrew his hand and hugged her shoulder, holding her close as they walked forward.
“Let you enjoy the feeling of being held by a man, like a little woman,” Luo Ziling chuckled, “I’m being generous here, no need to thank .”
Wuyue was amused and slightly bemused, but she didn’t struggle and let Luo Ziling hold her.
Interestingly, being held by a man, leaning on his broad shoulders, did feel quite fascinating.
It was her first ti, leaning in a man’s arms, and it felt so wonderfully peculiar.
For the first ti in her life, Wuyue beca the delicate woman, not struggling, quietly leaning in Luo Ziling’s arms.
Those secretly following them were stunned by the scene.
Their leader had actually turned a pretended romance into real.
Looking at their appearances, they indeed seed like a pair of lovers.
However, they dared not express anything.
This was none of their concern.
As Luo Ziling walked forward holding Wuyue’s shoulder, his phone suddenly rang with a ssage coming in.
Luo Ziling took out his phone to check, it was a ssage from Ouyang Feifei.
“I’m coming to Jinling tomorrow morning to attend an investnt conference. Then I need to talk to Jiangbei Province’s officials, and if convenient, I’d like to et Old Mr. Ling, could you arrange that for ?”
Seeing the ssage, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but frown.
He instinctively thought Ouyang Feifei ca over to join in once she knew he was in Jinling.
So he felt sowhat resistant to her intimacy.
But eventually, he didn’t reject her, replying with a ssage agreeing: “Alright, let’s talk when you’re here.”
As Luo Ziling read and replied to the ssage, Wuyue continued leaning in his arms, having seen the content of the ssage, she felt a sense of gloom.
She was surprised at herself for actually feeling jealous.
