Chapter 458: Chapter 458: Tit for Tat
While Luo Ziling was worrying himself to death, Ouyang Feifei and Yang Qingyin had already made their way into the living room.
Yang Qingyin took a seat on the couch, and Ouyang Feifei sat opposite her, with Wang Qing following in to make tea.
Luo Ziling thought for a mont, and still chose to sit next to Yang Qingyin, then gave her a peculiar look.
Yang Qingyin smiled sweetly but did not say anything.
After Wang Qing prepared three cups of tea, she first handed one to Ouyang Feifei, then brought the others to Luo Ziling and Yang Qingyin. When she placed the cup in front of Luo Ziling, her movent was a bit aggressive, and the tea splashed out.
Luo Ziling looked at her with puzzlent, only to see Wang Qing glare at him unfriendly, looking ready to bite.
Luo Ziling didn’t mind, and after a slight smile, he picked up his tea cup and started drinking.
“I’ve been unwell since I was very young, and I went to Grandpa Luo’s for treatnt,” Ouyang Feifei initiated the explanation, “Although my illness was controlled, it was never completely cured. This ti with Ziling coming to the Capital for his studies, his grandfather entrusted him to continue treating . If this treatnt is successful, it might completely eradicate the problem. I have an allergic constitution, it’s congenital. I’m most prone to falling ill during spring and autumn, and frequently show symptoms in the cold of winter. During this period, his treatnt has made feel much better. This kind of disease, western dicine has difficulty treating, but traditional Chinese dicine can handle it.”
“His dical skills are indeed good. I had a minor ailnt, and he cured as well,” Yang Qingyin smiled elegantly and replied evenly, “While he was treating , I didn’t see anything because I was asleep. Today, when he’s treating you, I was curious and wanted to co and see. Nothing more, just out of curiosity. Of course, I have long heard of Miss Ouyang’s reputation, and I’ve always wanted to et you. Today, I got the chance.”
“I have also long heard of Miss Yang’s reputation. Many people call you Yanjing’s Number One Beauty. We’ve only seen each other from afar in the past, so today is the first ti we’re eting face to face,” Ouyang Feifei said with a light smile, very politely, “I did not expect Miss Yang to be even more beautiful in person than in photos, truly a celestial beauty.”
“Miss Ouyang flatters too much. As for the title of Yanjing’s Number One Beauty, you are the one truly regarded as such by everyone, overseeing the vast Lingyun Group, a pivotal figure in the Ouyang Family. How could I, a re student, compare to you?” Yang Qingyin spoke these words with a smile still on her face.
Luo Ziling watched from the side, stunned. Both won were typically sparing with their words, preferring to appear cool and aloof in public, yet unexpectedly, upon eting today, they started conversing endlessly. Moreover, while talking, smiles flooded their faces—if one only looked at their faces, Luo Ziling would never believe that they usually preferred to wear cool expressions.
Of course, they looked very beautiful in this state. If he wasn’t worried about being rude, he really would have liked to stare for a while longer, at either of them.
“What’s with these two won? Are they competing? If it’s a competition, they shouldn’t be complinting each other all the ti, should they?” Luo Ziling was extrely puzzled. As the two won spoke more and more jovially, Luo Ziling grew suspicious again, “Could they have beco good friends just like that?”
But Luo Ziling soon realized he was mistaken; the two won were secretly vying with each other.
Ouyang Feifei subtly brought up the scene of his recent assassination attempt on the street, saying that the old grievances between the Ling and Ouyang families had affected the present, putting Luo Ziling’s safety at risk. She was investigating the matter alongside Ling Ruonan, genuinely fearing that similar incidents might occur again in the future.
Hearing Ouyang Feifei ntion this, Yang Qingyin imdiately responded, “I’ve also had Xiaoli looking into this matter. If I’m not mistaken, it wasn’t done by anyone from the Yang Family.”
“In the past, when Huihui and Ziling were together, they caused a lot of trouble. I repeatedly reprimanded her, telling her not to create problems for Ziling. Fortunately, she listened, but unexpectedly, at her birthday a few days ago, she attracted so many people, even your brother showed up. It looks like too many people can’t tolerate him. Ziling had only recently arrived in Yanjing, and with the older generation embroiled in such troubleso affairs, I’m worried that he’ll face more problems in the future.” Ouyang Feifei did not continue her words, stopping just when everyone thought she would go on.
Luo Ziling realized that this was a veiled warning that if Yang Qingyin continued to be with him, he would face more problems, and he couldn’t help but feel a little astonished.
Of course, Yang Qingyin also caught the implication in Ouyang Feifei’s words, but she didn’t mind it in the least and replied with a smile, “The past grudges of the Yang Family have nothing to do with now. I also hope that Ziling won’t encounter any problems. When I went to Mrs. Ling’s place for dinner the other day, I discussed these matters with her. I believe Ziling will be careful and will be able to resolve any troubles. However, the issues that arose at Ouyang Huihui’s birthday party are not so easily resolved. Even if those people don’t know Ziling’s identity now, they will definitely find out later on. The people who can’t stand him and Mrs. Ling are nurous, and there will be endless troubles in the future.”
Ouyang Feifei imdiately realized that Yang Qingyin was using Ling Ruonan to put pressure on her.
When Yang Qingyin ntioned having dinner at Ling Ruonan’s place, she subtly hinted at a good relationship with Ling Ruonan, eliminating the possibility of Ling Ruonan having any disdain for her. Furthermore, Yang Qingyin’s words seed to subtly bla Ouyang Huihui for causing a lot of trouble for Luo Ziling.
Feeling indignant inside, but showing no change in expression, Ouyang Feifei still smilingly said, “I heard that Miss Yang is about to get engaged to Mr. Fang, is that so?”
Yang Qingyin’s face changed instantly, she didn’t expect Ouyang Feifei to say such a thing in front of Luo Ziling. She imdiately retorted, “I’ve heard that Miss Ouyang had an engagent with Ziling in the past, but now it has been dissolved, is that the situation?”
The two won were talking about him, but he, sitting on the side, couldn’t get a word in, making Luo Ziling very anxious.
Hearing their conversation turn towards engagent, he was even more startled.
He was well aware that both won were very annoyed; otherwise, they wouldn’t have said things likely to cause a verbal conflict. He imdiately interjected, “I say, when is this dinner going to co? I’m really hungry here. Haven’t you talked enough to be hungry?”
With Luo Ziling’s interjection, Ouyang Feifei and Yang Qingyin both ca to their senses, realizing that they had let their emotions get sowhat out of control and had reached a point of sharp confrontation.
Ouyang Feifei imdiately replied to Luo Ziling, “It should be ready soon, I’ll have Wang Qing hurry them up.”
While speaking, she also smiled at Luo Ziling.
Yang Qingyin also promptly closed her mouth and gave Luo Ziling a gentle smile as well.
Seeing both won behave like this, Luo Ziling slightly relaxed.
