Capítulo 2046: Chapter 2046: They All Have the Sa Intentions
“On this matter, my father’s attitude hasn’t changed at all.” Yang Qingyin glanced evasively at Luo Ziling. “Sotis, he’s a bit unreasonable. This is also about saving face for him, and if we bring this up while he hasn’t co around, it’ll only lead to a bad outco.”
Luo Ziling nodded, agreeing with Yang Qingyin. “Your dad still hasn’t figured things out yet. If he allows us to be together, he’ll definitely feel that he’s lost his dignity as a man.”
“Actually, that’s not the most important thing.” Yang Qingyin stopped walking and looked earnestly at Luo Ziling. “Do you know what I an?”
“I don’t know,” Luo Ziling pretended to be clueless.
Yang Qingyin rolled her eyes at him and pinched him, but she didn’t say anything more.
Nearby, there were quite a few people with high status who knew Yang Qingyin.
While Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin were wandering around, they ran into several elderly people who recognized Yang Qingyin.
Yang Qingyin approached them warmly, and these elderly people smiled in response.
Luo Ziling also stepped forward to greet them and introduced himself.
Recently, Luo Ziling’s reputation had beco quite prominent, as evidenced by the fact that all the elderly people they t recognized him.
“So you are Luo Ziling!”
“Young man, not bad, not bad!”
“A promising young talent!”
These were so of the comnts Luo Ziling received.
Although these comnts were simple, their implications were not. Luo Ziling felt a bit smug after hearing them.
“It looks like your reputation is big enough that even these old folks know you.” After walking around once, Yang Qingyin said to Luo Ziling with a peculiar tone. “They really consider you soone significant. I think if you achieve sothing more next, they’ll look at you with even more respect.”
“That’s why, with the establishnt of the lab and the setup of the Traditional dicine departnt and course schedules, I dared to argue with them. I’m not an ordinary person; I must show so personality, or they’ll think I’m just an ordinary person who can be easily manipulated. To prevent them from looking down on , I have to express my opinions.”
Luo Ziling’s arrogant words earned him a roll of the eyes from Yang Qingyin.
After strolling for a while, the two returned.
Yang Yuanshan invited Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin to dine at the old residence.
Of course, Luo Ziling “happily” accepted the invitation.
During dinner, he had a few drinks with Yang Yuanshan.
Yang Yuanshan seed to be in a good mood, at least in Luo Ziling’s view.
As Luo Ziling was leaving with Yang Qingyin, he smiled and said to her, “Your grandfather is growing more and more fond of .”
Yang Qingyin glared at the smug Luo Ziling, “Maybe he just sees you as soone he can cooperate with, without any other intentions.”
“I don’t think so!” Luo Ziling shook his head. “To them, nothing is more important than interest, and that’s not an exaggeration. If I’m not mistaken, your grandfather has already considered a marriage alliance. He hopes that through our union, the Yang Family and the Ling Family can further cooperate. After all, the Ling Family’s status is now higher than the Yang Family’s. Ling Zhengping has already entered the highest ranks, and at the next formal eting, he’s likely to enter that small circle.”
Yang Qingyin was taken aback by Luo Ziling’s words, but she quickly understood his aning.
She didn’t completely deny that her grandfather might have such intentions, but she still had many doubts.
“You don’t have a good relationship with Ling Zhengping. The higher his status, the less it benefits you. My grandfather surely knows this, so if he wants an alliance by marriage, he shouldn’t marry to you, but to Ling Haining instead.” Yang Qingyin said quietly.
“You’re too naive.” Luo Ziling patted Yang Qingyin on the shoulder. “If he marries you to Ling Haining, the intention is too obvious. The Ling Family will also think it’s the Yang Family trying to curry favor with them. We’ve always been together, so if they allow us to marry, it’s a natural progression. Now, I’m highly regarded by Old Mr. Ling, and my grandfather holds in high esteem too, so Ling Zhengping can’t openly go against . If our engagent is announced at this ti, everyone will assu that the Ling and Yang Families have further cooperated. Often, it’s not the substantive details that people need to know, but rather the surface appearance.”
“Why am I naive? It’s not like you’re so mature!” Yang Qingyin pinched Luo Ziling and said angrily, “Do you really think you’re the reincarnation of Zhuge Liang? If you can figure out what those old people are thinking, you might as well beco a genius.”
“It’s impossible to fully understand their intentions. This is just my guess now, and as for what they’re really thinking, what will happen next might give us a clue. Anyway, there’s no point in blindly guessing; let them ss around. No matter what, when water rises, the earth subrges, when soldiers co, the generals defend. I’m not worried about anything.” Luo Ziling said with a wicked smile. “Anyway, there’s no issue with your grandfather; the main problem is your father. If your father understands, then there will be no problem at all.”
“I never thought of marrying you!” Yang Qingyin glared at Luo Ziling with a red face, “A playboy, anyone who marries you is unlucky.”
While Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin were talking about their relationship, elsewhere, two other people were discussing matters related to them.
“Dad, did Old Sir Yang really express such intentions?” Ling Ruonan looked at her father Ling Mingrui in astonishnt, a little incredulous. “He’s willing to betroth Qingyin to Ling’er?”
“While drinking tea together that day, he ntioned their affairs.” Ling Mingrui said while sipping his tea, “However, he didn’t explicitly say it.”
Ling Ruonan was silent, contemplating the crucial part of it.
Today, Luo Ziling didn’t return ho for dinner, and Ling Ruonan didn’t either. She ca to visit her parents.
Recently, she often ca to her parents’ place.
There were several reasons for her frequent visits: The main reason was Ling Ruonan’s concern for her parents. She knew that at their age, what they most hope for is for their children and grandchildren to visit them often. Junior family mbers surrounding them and constantly accompanying them certainly makes them happy.
Another reason was that Ling Ruonan wanted everyone to know that she, their daughter, was more favored by Ling Mingrui and Xie Enhua compared to their son Ling Zhengping, and that their relationship was closer.
After accompanying her parents for dinner today, during a chat, Ling Mingrui suddenly brought up the matter of Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin, which surprised Ling Ruonan greatly. However, she quickly understood what Ling Mingrui was implying.
The Yang and Ling families hope to further consolidate their relationship through the union of Yang Qingyin and Luo Ziling.
