Ouyang Huihui left together with Ouyang Feifei.
She seed a bit downcast as she left.
However, shortly after the sisters left, Luo Ziling received a ssage from Ouyang Huihui.
"Losing so things ans gaining others. I've lost so much before, so I will take back double. Those who plot against will be disappointed and ultimately fail. Don't think I'm easy to bully; I'll make you see in a new light."
After reading the ssage, Luo Ziling was amused and exasperated.
In the end, he replied to Ouyang Huihui with a single line: "Well, good luck then!"
He couldn't think of anything else to respond with, so he simply wished her well.
Ouyang Huihui did not reply to the ssage.
To Luo Ziling's surprise, early the next morning, Ling Haijun ca seeking him.
"Ziling, I want to discuss sothing." Ling Haijun was serious, "You must give so advice on this."
Seeing Ling Haijun in this manner, Luo Ziling already had a good guess at what he wanted to discuss.
But he did not reveal his thoughts, instead gesturing for Ling Haijun to talk in the office.
The morning had Dong Xiaowan's class; originally, Luo Ziling planned to return to class for his own major's lesson, but since Ling Haijun ca over to discuss sothing, he had to postpone it.
"What do you need to talk about?" Luo Ziling asked calmly as he sat on the sofa, "Did sothing happen with Northern Pharmaceuticals?"
"No, it's personal." Ling Haijun looked a bit embarrassed, "Last night when I got ho, my dad told sothing."
Luo Ziling didn't interrupt, just listened quietly.
Ling Haijun didn't keep him in suspense and imdiately explained.
"My dad said he discussed sothing with Ouyang Zhenhua, the father of Ouyang Feifei and Ouyang Huihui. They talked about arranging a marriage between and Ouyang Huihui, an alliance between our families." As he spoke, Ling Haijun kept watching Luo Ziling's expression, but seeing no change, he continued hesitantly: "Though I know Ouyang Huihui, we haven't interacted much, so we're not really familiar. Also, she has a close relationship with you..."
At this mont, Ling Haijun paused before continuing, "Moreover, I don't want to accept a marriage arranged by others. In this era, are we still bound by parental orders and matchmaking? I refuse to accept their arrangents. I haven't experienced a real romance yet; I hope to et soone I truly love. Even if we don't marry, I want to have a passionate affair. As for marriage, it's too early to consider now. But no matter what, I want to choose my own marriage."
Having said his piece, Ling Haijun felt relieved.
"Is this the issue?" After Ling Haijun finished speaking, Luo Ziling still showed no reaction, just asked casually.
"Yes!" Ling Haijun nodded firmly, "I think it's very important. I don't know their intentions in wanting to be with Ouyang Huihui, but I feel it's about family interests. The Ouyang Family wants to strengthen ties with our Ling Family through marriage, and my dad might have accepted so conditions or wants closer ties with the Ouyang Family because they are extrely wealthy. However, my dad isn't clear about the key issues here, resulting in a wrong decision."
"Actually, you don't need to discuss this with . Just go back and talk it over with your dad. If you can persuade him, that's enough." Luo Ziling said while standing up from the sofa, "Alright, I need to go to class now, you also should return to your duties."
Although Luo Ziling's attitude puzzled Ling Haijun, he felt relieved after clarifying the matter.
As they left the office together, Luo Ziling patted his shoulder, "You've been doing well recently, keep it up. If one day Northern Pharmaceuticals and Lingyun Pharmaceutical rge, you'll still be responsible for many things."
Ling Haijun, who had been uncertain and anxious, suddenly felt his heart ease.
"Thank you, cousin, for your trust. I'll definitely do my best and won't let you and Auntie down." Ling Haijun was truly grateful that he had rushed to Luo Ziling early in the morning after learning about the situation to firmly express his stance.
Despite having limited life experience, he understood things more comprehensively than his elders due to his ti among won.
Those won closely associated with Luo Ziling were regarded by Ling Haijun as untouchable, as "belonging" to Luo Ziling. Therefore, for his future and to avoid Luo Ziling's disfavor, he decisively made his choice.
What are won anyway? With his current status and position, finding a beautiful and well-built girlfriend could happen in no ti.
Ling Haijun left feeling relaxed and cheerful.
Luo Ziling too was in a good mood, satisfied with Ling Haijun's performance.
He has potential!
After parting with Ling Haijun, Luo Ziling attended two of his classes, then returned to teach a class to new students.
Switching between student and teacher frequently within a day was challenging for Luo Ziling.
Near noon, Luo Ziling received a call from Li Haiyang, inviting him for lunch.
Originally planning to have lunch before visiting Li Haiyang, Luo Ziling agreed when Li Haiyang insisted.
Around eleven o'clock, he left the university and went to the military compound to see Li Haiyang.
Li Haiyang invited him to the compound, saying he wanted Luo Ziling to taste the delicious food from the cafeteria there.
Having never visited the place before, Luo Ziling's curiosity was piqued by Li Haiyang's invitation, prompting him to agree nearly without hesitation.
Wuyue personally drove him over.
In less than half an hour, they reached the mysterious compound not far from Yan University's campus.
As expected, the car driven by Wuyue was stopped outside at the guard post.
Luo Ziling registered at the post, and after the sentry contacted Li Haiyang, he was allowed entry.
The car couldn't enter since Luo Ziling's identity wasn't special, nor did the car bear special plates.
To his surprise, as he entered the military compound and curiously looked around, a car with military plates stopped beside him.
Luo Ziling noticed the small-numbered license plate on the car and instinctively moved aside to let it pass.
Unexpectedly, the car stopped right next to him.
After coming to a halt, the window of the back seat rolled down. An elderly man with three gold stars on his shoulders, without a cap, revealing gray hair, looked out the window at Luo Ziling, "Are you from the Luo Family?"
Luo Ziling was surprised that the man recognized him and didn't react imdiately.
However, he recognized the man, as the elder occasionally appeared in news reports.
