Capítulo 2089: Chapter 2089: She’s Worried Too
To the surprise of Luo Ziling and Luo Yuqing, Luo Xusheng arrived in Yanjing a day earlier than they had expected.
The day Luo Xusheng ca to Yanjing, Yang Qingyin happened to accompany Yang Yuanshan, who was leaving Yanjing for Jiangcheng.
Yang Yuanshan chose not to fly but to travel by high-speed rail, just like Ling Jinhua.
Because Yang Qingyin was accompanying Yang Yuanshan, Luo Ziling hesitated for a while and finally decided to see them off.
Luo Ziling didn’t make a high-profile appearance; instead, he disguised himself and appeared in the VIP lounge at the station.
The security level for Yang Yuanshan’s departure was also very high, and when Luo Ziling arrived at the station, he was stopped by security personnel outside.
Fortunately, Yang Qingyin appeared in ti and led him into the waiting area.
Yang Yunlin and Chen Qiaoyu also ca to see him off, along with other mbers of the Yang Family and so high-ranking individuals.
Luo Ziling kept a low profile, saying just a couple of words to Yang Yuanshan before pulling away to chat with Yang Qingyin.
He didn’t chat with Yang Qingyin for long, fearing Yang Yunlin might get emotional and do sothing irrational, so he left early.
After all, with the convenience of communication today, he could easily contact Yang Qingyin for updates rather than feeling like they were parting forever.
“While I’m away, you mustn’t flirt with other pretty girls,” Yang Qingyin specifically warned him.
Luo Ziling, naturally, agreed wholeheartedly.
He told Yang Qingyin that his father, Luo Xusheng, was also coming to Yanjing, and once he was there, he would be so busy he wouldn’t have ti to fool around.
Knowing Luo Xusheng was returning to Yanjing, Yang Qingyin wasn’t surprised by what Luo Ziling said.
She told Luo Ziling to send her regards to Luo Xusheng and that she’d visit him after she returned from her trip.
“You promised to host my parents’ wedding with , you won’t go back on your word, right?” Luo Ziling asked Yang Qingyin with a smile as he was about to leave.
“Of course, I won’t break my promise. What I promised, I’ll surely do.” After making this solemn promise, Yang Qingyin rolled her eyes at Luo Ziling, “I’m not like so people who are untrustworthy.”
“How am I untrustworthy?”
“Hmph, not going to bother with you, think about it yourself!” Yang Qingyin snorted, rolling her eyes at Luo Ziling again angrily.
Luo Ziling chuckled, not bothered by it, and after bidding farewell to Yang Yuanshan once more, he left.
Yang Yuanshan’s high-speed train departed at nine in the morning, while Luo Xusheng’s train was set to arrive at around twelve-thirty. To avoid hassle, Luo Ziling didn’t return to school or ho but waited directly at the station.
Luo Yuqing called him, trying to arrange to et at the station, but Luo Ziling had already been at Yanjing South Station for two hours.
Ling Ruonan didn’t expect Luo Ziling to wait at the station all this ti, and after calling him to understand the situation, she begrudgingly complained.
In the end, Ling Ruonan brought Luo Yuqing along, and the two arrived at Yanjing South Station together in one car.
Luo Liansheng didn’t co to welco them, as having a father greet his son seed too ceremonious. Additionally, Luo Liansheng was not very satisfied with his son, so he didn’t co.
By the ti Ling Ruonan and Luo Yuqing arrived at the station, Luo Ziling had already been inside for nearly three hours.
He had a simple lunch at the station.
His companions, Wuyue, Zhu Yijun, and Shi Yidan, stayed by his side. Eventually, when they got bored, Luo Ziling played chess with Wuyue. They each downloaded a military chess app on their phones and played monotonously for over an hour.
When Ling Ruonan and Luo Yuqing arrived, Wuyue finally breathed a sigh of relief, ending the dull ga with Luo Ziling and going to greet them.
Ling Ruonan asked Wuyue if Yang Xiaodong and Wang Zhenjun had co.
Wuyue glanced at Luo Ziling with so difficulty, unsure how to answer.
“Mom, I sent them on so errands, so they couldn’t co today. With us welcoming him, my dad already has enough face. Too many people would just annoy him,” Luo Ziling explained with a grin, then teased Ling Ruonan, “Mom, you look so pretty today, you’re outshining Yuqing standing next to you. Hehe, are you excited to see your husband?”
Before Ling Ruonan could respond, he was t with a playful smack on the head.
“You rascal, what nonsense are you spouting?” Ling Ruonan was mildly embarrassed and a bit flustered.
Luo Ziling chuckled and dashed away, his smile as irritating as a cheeky child’s, making Ling Ruonan want to catch him and give his mouth a tug.
Luo Yuqing stood to the side, laughing like a little fox that had inadvertently gotten away with sothing.
She was surprised to see Ling Ruonan blush.
In her mind, Ling Ruonan was a queen figure, suprely dignified, which made her secretly intimidated.
She thought that, even in front of Luo Ziling and Luo Xusheng, Ling Ruonan wouldn’t show such a girlish deanor.
Yet, seeing Ling Ruonan’s shy, annoyed expression, she couldn’t help but think to herself, “Even when mad, a goddess is so captivating.”
In Luo Yuqing’s mind, Ling Ruonan was the highest-ranking woman.
She admired no woman as much as she did Ling Ruonan.
Neither Ouyang Feifei nor any other woman mattered much to her, but she never dismissed Ling Ruonan.
She seized this chance to be ingratiating; after chuckling briefly, she stepped forward to hold Ling Ruonan’s arm, playfully saying, “Mrs. Ling, Ziling’s getting naughtier by the day, daring to tease you like that.”
“This guy is becoming more unruly,” Ling Ruonan scoffed, pulling Luo Yuqing to sit down, ignoring Luo Ziling.
“Mrs. Ling, how about having him cook us dinner tonight as punishnt?” Luo Yuqing suggested with a cheeky grin to Ling Ruonan. “His cooking is quite good after all. And besides, this guy’s super awful, always bullying , he needs a proper lesson, or else he’ll bully not just but even you.”
Ling Ruonan smiled but didn’t respond to Luo Yuqing’s words.
Luo Yuqing wasn’t bothered, continuing, “But you know, soone will keep him in check now. He can’t beat his dad anyway, so if he misbehaves, just have his dad deal with him.”
Then she called out to Luo Ziling standing elsewhere, “If you act up again, your dad will deal with you.”
Ling Ruonan was aware that Luo Yuqing was using these little opportunities to get closer to her, but she didn’t show any impatience.
Though she held so resentnt toward Luo Yuqing’s existence, facts were facts and couldn’t be changed. Luo Yuqing’s repeated efforts to be friendly slowly won over her feelings towards this illegitimate daughter of Luo Xusheng’s.
In her subconscious, she saw her as part of the Luo Family, even willing to give her so opportunities and resources.
But she was fully aware of Luo Yuqing’s scheming mind.
Her willingness to use various thods to ingratiate herself and improve their relationship was by itself a sign of cunning.
Ling Ruonan hoped to see Luo Ziling and Luo Yuqing helping each other succeed. She didn’t want Luo Yuqing plotting against her or Luo Ziling.
While she gave Luo Yuqing so resources and opportunities, she also took precautions.
Won are always wary of other won, and Ling Ruonan was no different.
She didn’t fully trust any woman around Luo Ziling, including Ouyang Feifei.
She was also worried that once Luo Xusheng returned, Luo Yuqing might beco overly ambitious, wanting to overshadow Luo Ziling.
If that happened, it would put her in a difficult position.
Therefore, she planned to clarify so things once Luo Xusheng returned.
