Ling Ruonan didn't say much about this matter, and Luo Ziling didn't ask much either.
Around six-thirty, Luo Ziling suggested returning.
The won who were still digging for treasure in the jade mine reluctantly erged, preparing to leave.
The way back was easier than the way there, but Dai Shulan and Fang Qianqian were still exhausted, so they rode horses.
When they got back to the camp, Luo Ziling asked these won to rest, and he went to help Luo Liansheng.
Just as Luo Ziling walked over to Luo Liansheng, he was stopped by a woman.
It was none other than Dong Xiaowan.
Dong Xiaowan looked at Luo Ziling with an aggrieved expression and complained, "Luo Ziling, you're too much!"
"What's wrong?" Luo Ziling looked puzzled, "I don't think I've bullied you, have I?"
"You brought us here and have been ignoring us. Aren't you embarrassed?" Dong Xiaowan shouted at Luo Ziling angrily, "On the road, you only cared for your ladies and never paid attention to us. Even when we got to the town or your village, it was the sa. Have you ever spoken a word to ? Have you ever cared about our lives?"
"I'm not your parents, you're grown up now, shouldn't you manage your own life?" Luo Ziling understood the reason for Dong Xiaowan's complaint, but he played dumb, "Didn't you see I'm very busy?"
"Of course, you're busy with so many won needing your company, my status is way below theirs, obviously, you can't be bothered!" Dong Xiaowan huffed heavily at this, "Since you're so unwelcoming, I might as well go back early rather than being ignored by you."
"There's a strong enemy nearby, I'm responsible for their safety, how could I have the energy to chat with you?" Luo Ziling said seriously, "Do you know that last night we were attacked by Professional rcenary Legion people and had a conflict with them? The film crew is coming tomorrow, and I have to organize their stay, in a few days my grandpa and I will go into the mountains to gather herbs, we need to prepare. Do you really want to see yourself as just a guest?"
Being scolded by Luo Ziling, Dong Xiaowan felt even more aggrieved, her cute little mouth pouted high. "You say you don't bully , but you're bullying right now!"
"Didn't I give you a very important task?" Luo Ziling reminded Dong Xiaowan earnestly, "You're in charge of your group's affairs, if anything happens, you can directly find Wuyue, or , or my grandpa. Also, you must keep an eye on Ishihara Naka and Xu Zhiyuan, I'm afraid they'll cause trouble."
"They are behaving themselves and haven't done anything!" Dong Xiaowan glanced at Ishihara Naka and Xu Zhiyuan who were working beside Luo Liansheng, "They, like , have beco just extras in your eyes, with no sense of presence."
"Alright, stop complaining. In a few days when we enter the mountain together, you'll have the chance to be the lead, understand? I'm warning you, don't let down, or you'll suffer!" After saying this, he reminded Dong Xiaowan, "My mom is leaving tomorrow, chat with her if you have ti. You're helping , so if my mom isn't satisfied, you won't get another chance!"
"I'm not your girlfriend, why do I need your mom's approval?" Having been scolded by Luo Ziling, Dong Xiaowan felt a bit less aggrieved, but when speaking, she was still full of grievance. "Isn't it enough that your mom is satisfied with your little lovers?"
"Alright, alright, stop the unnecessary jealousy, get to work, if my grandpa isn't satisfied with you, you can roll back ho!" Luo Ziling was truly a bit annoyed.
Dong Xiaowan was smart, seeing Luo Ziling like this, she didn't throw a tantrum anymore. She just asked Luo Ziling to show her around when he got the chance, and then continued with her work.
On this outing, following Luo Ziling and Luo Liansheng to learn skills, including Dong Xiaowan, Wang Hanying, Ishihara Naka, and Xu Zhiyuan among others, Luo Ziling ford a group, assigning all matters to Dong Xiaowan.
Ishihara Naka and Xu Zhiyuan secretly competed, and both had retaliatory tendencies, so Luo Ziling ordered Dong Xiaowan to monitor these two. If they had any malicious intentions, she should report it imdiately.
Dong Xiaowan was quite serious about her work and did not disappoint Luo Ziling.
However, on the way, and after arriving at Qingfeng, Luo Ziling hardly managed her.
Dong Xiaowan felt Luo Ziling completely ignored her, hence she felt aggrieved.
After being scolded by Luo Ziling, she felt a bit better and went off to help Luo Liansheng work again.
Luo Ziling knew that Dong Xiaowan was just trying to assert her presence in front of him and wasn't truly dissatisfied. Her saying she wanted to go back was just sulking, so he didn't worry about it.
After returning, a large group of people began preparing dinner.
About fifty to sixty people ca to Qingfeng Village, exceeding the number of original residents here.
However, they didn't disturb the locals much, and although the original villagers were curious about so many outsiders, after receiving gifts from Luo Liansheng, they didn't inquire further.
Preparing als for fifty to sixty people was a daunting task.
Fortunately, the security personnel mostly consisted of retired special forces and other military mbers. They had experience in this area.
Thus, these matters didn't need Luo Ziling to worry about.
While preparing dinner, Fang Dongxun reported the situation via satellite phone to his father, Fang Zhonghua.
He told Fang Zhonghua that last night they were attacked by professional rcenaries and narrowly escaped a disaster.
Fortunately, they were well-prepared, and with ample manpower, they managed to repel the attackers.
Not only were they attacked by professional rcenaries, but also by ard personnel from Maozi.
Fang Dongxun told Fang Zhonghua that he strongly suspected the Chen Family colluded with the Maozi ard personnel.
"Dad, how could they engage in such despicable acts, colluding with foreign forces and betraying national interests? We must not tolerate this and must demand an explanation!"
After hearing this from Fang Dongxun, Fang Zhonghua was silent for a mont, then said, "I'll discuss this with your grandpa; you don't have to worry about the specifics. Since you're out enjoying yourselves, just have fun for a few days!"
"Dad, they aren't letting us enjoy ourselves. Whenever we go out, they harass us. I'm worried about Qianqian and having an accident!"
"Understood, be careful yourself!" Fang Zhonghua advised, then sternly reminded, "This incident won't be resolved easily. Luo Ziling tweeted about it, causing quite a stir. We will take action!"
"Understood!" Fang Dongxun sighed with relief.
