Wang Zhengqiang originally thought that by bringing up this matter, Luo Ziling would enthusiastically respond.
Unexpectedly, Luo Ziling remained indifferent.
A bit surprised, Wang Zhengqiang quickly understood the situation. He assud that Luo Ziling believed Chen Ruchang would surely intervene by force, and since Chen Yining was soone of significance, the matter would just be brushed aside, akin to a re three-glass punishnt.
So, he imdiately continued: "If your grandfather is unwilling to let go of this matter and others maintain the sa attitude, then the Chen Family and others involved cannot be let off lightly… If you want the Chen Family to be heavily punished, you must push harder."
"Thank you for the advice, Uncle Wang. I understand!" Luo Ziling nodded.
Wang Zhengqiang added, "Chen Yining is rely the sacrificial lamb pushed out by the Chen Family. Without Chen Ruchang's consent, neither Chen Yining nor Chen Yijing would dare act so wantonly. Actually, I can't understand why the Chen Family holds such hatred towards you? Do they genuinely believe Chen Jiahai was killed by you?"
Wang Zhengqiang spelled it out, leaving Luo Ziling slightly taken aback.
He quickly shook his head and said with a frustrated expression, "Chen Jiahai died because he was too indulgent; the dication was originally ant to treat heart disease, stimulating the heart. He took too much, leading to cardiac overload and dying of heart failure. To bla soone else in this context is utterly nonsensical."
"Hahaha!" Wang Zhengqiang laughed, "You even ntioned 'mixing up marriages'; seems you are quite flustered."
"My grandmother was actually Miss Chen, the sister of Chen Ruchang and Chen Rushan. My relationship with Chen Jiahai and Chen Jiahu is that of cousins. My dad should call Chen Ruchang and Chen Rushan 'uncle'—they're blood relations."
Wang Zhengqiang knew this but was surprised by the past grievances between the Chen and Luo families, asking, "How did it get to this point?"
"The Chen Family didn't want to marry their daughter to my grandfather. My grandmother eloped with him, but later died tragically, and the Chen Family believed my grandfather caused her death. Then, I got into conflicts with several Chen Family sons, and Chen Jiahai accidentally brought his own ruin, driving their vendetta against us further." Luo Ziling managed a wry smile, "Actually, my grandfather still holds onto the old affection, feels guilty towards my grandmother, and promised her he would treat the Chen Family well."
"So, does that an you don't plan to dig into this matter seriously?" Wang Zhengqiang seed quite surprised.
"There are many things beyond my control, and I believe justice is still fair. The phrase 'Even the prince is punished like the common people' has been touted for thousands of years. I presu that in our legal society, there aren't many who can enjoy such privileges?" Luo Ziling seriously looked at Wang Zhengqiang, "Moreover, the evidence is comprehensive, the judicial authorities should have a clear verdict."
Luo Ziling's response left Wang Zhengqiang unsure of how to reply.
Originally, he thought he could easily convey his intentions today.
His goal was simple: he hoped the Chen Family would be severely punished, and Lin Zeping would be troubled as well.
The Chen Family and Lin Zeping often put restraints on him, and he found them particularly distasteful.
This incident is an excellent opportunity. He thought the Ling Family and Luo Ziling wouldn't miss the chance to suppress the Chen Family and Lin Zeping.
He wanted to stir Luo Ziling, aiming to escalate things further, intensifying troubles for the Chen and Lin families.
He wanted to use Luo Ziling as a pawn.
But unexpectedly, Luo Ziling's performance was entirely opposite to his expectations.
His agitation elicited almost no reaction, and Luo Ziling repeatedly hinted that the Chen Family wouldn't face severe punishnt.
This left Wang Zhengqiang a bit disappointed, but he didn't give up, continually reminding Luo Ziling that as long as Luo Ziling pursued accountability, the matter wouldn't be settled easily, nor should it simply conclude.
Wang Zhengqiang again reminded Luo Ziling that the issue wasn't a private affair between Chen Yining and Chen Yijing; Chen Ruchang's consent was necessary, and the true culprit is Chen Ruchang.
He bluntly told Luo Ziling that if Chen Ruchang loses power, the Chen Family would fall rapidly as well.
Wang Zhengqiang also hinted at deep sches by Lin Zeping and Lin Zhengdong regarding this matter. Their intentions are clearly to gain benefits, malign others, with very malicious designs. Of course, he wasn't direct but implied with subtlety.
"Thank you, Uncle Wang, for the reminder. I'll carefully consider what to do next." Luo Ziling earnestly nodded and quickly clarified: "I'm young, not very mature, and all these matters are unfamiliar to . Whatever decision I make, I must consult with my mom and grandfather."
"In a couple of days, I'll talk to your mom about work matters!" Wang Zhengqiang felt slightly defeated but relaxed a bit after hearing Luo Ziling ntion his mother, "Haven't discussed issues face-to-face in ages."
Luo Ziling agreed, "I'll pass Uncle Wang's sentints to her, and when the ti cos, let Feiyang inform you."
Wang Zhengqiang suddenly seed enlightened, "Oh, Feiyang, that kid, where's he been for so long? Even a phone call takes ages."
"I'll go outside to take a look; I'll wait in the car for a while." Luo Ziling was preparing to leave.
Wang Zhengqiang didn't hold him back and let him go.
After Luo Ziling left, Wang Feiyang promptly erged.
"Dad, how did your conversation go?"
"Did you offend him?" Wang Zhengqiang frowned slightly, "I sense he's sowhat resentful towards us, a lot of his words were just casual responses."
"He found out about so of the things we've done!" Wang Feiyang lowered his head, "He's far more adept than we imagined."
"Indeed, formidable!" Wang Zhengqiang nodded, "He understands progression and retreat, not acting impulsively."
Wang Feiyang curiously asked, "Dad, did he refuse your proposal, not wanting to pursue the Chen Family fiercely, nor seeking trouble for Lin Zeping?"
"Seems like it!" Wang Zhengqiang nodded, "I suspect Lin Zeping must've realized sothing, and took the initiative to concede. You should investigate if Lin Zeping approached him, and whether there's an under-the-table agreent with the Chen Family."
"I'll try my best, but"... Wang Feiyang was a bit reluctant, "during this period, I must avoid angering him; he's already quite fed up with . If I keep doing things he dislikes, I might not be able to utilize him anymore."
Wang Zhengqiang sighed, "So young, yet masterful in human affairs, capable of manipulating so many big shots effortlessly — he's truly a prodigy."
"But I believe, ultimately, I'll erge victorious!" Wang Feiyang laughed, "I've already devised how to deal with him!"
