Chapter 605: Chapter 605 You Really Aren’t a Heartless Person
Because he had already torn his face and hit soone yesterday, and he had prepared for the worst, Luo Ziling felt no fear when speaking with Ling Jinhua.
Without expectations, there was no tension or worry; he was very calm when talking to Ling Jinhua, without any concerns, and unlike the younger mbers of the Ling family, he didn’t act timidly in front of the elder.
What he did not expect was that his unguarded deanor actually made Ling Jinhua respect him even more.
“Okay, let’s get back to the topic we were discussing,” Ling Jinhua agreed, then asked Luo Ziling again, “I have to ask you once more, what do you want?”
“Other than having my family of three reunited, I have no other requests,” Luo Ziling’s reply still surprised Ling Jinhua.
“Are you sure?”
“Positive!” Luo Ziling nodded, “I don’t need anyone’s charity; everything in my life, I hope to create through my own efforts.”
“If I’m not mistaken, your mother must have prepared a lot of family property for you,” Ling Jinhua narrowed his eyes as he spoke, “If she gives it to you, you wouldn’t want it?”
“That’s different,” Luo Ziling shook his head, “My mom is my mom; we are blood relatives, I am her flesh and blood, she treats as her dearest, what she gives cos without ulterior motives, without conditions, and is definitely not a collaboration. Whatever she gives , I will accept, but apart from maternal love, I will not actively demand. Moreover, I still hope to create my life on my own.”
“We are in a partnership; a partnership requires mutual input and mutual benefits, otherwise the basis for cooperation doesn’t exist,” Ling Jinhua spoke with a serious expression, “So, I made my demands, and you should make yours. My request is for you to help put on an act, and at tis, you might have to do so shaless things. You can state your conditions!”
“Well then, since that’s the case, I won’t hold back,” Luo Ziling pondered for a mont, then said, “Don’t let anyone threaten my mom, and ensure she retains everything she currently has.”
“You really aren’t a heartless person.”
“Trying to gain a lot often results not only in getting nothing but also in losing more, so I might as well be realistic,” Luo Ziling said, and then chuckled, “Of course, if Great Grandfather is willing to give sothing, I might accept it. If the benefits go to my mom, I think I couldn’t refuse even if I wanted to.”
“It seems you are still a little fox!”
“Great Grandfather, let’s start the treatnt then,” Luo Ziling felt he had said enough and proactively suggested treating Ling Jinhua.
Ling Jinhua didn’t refuse, and nodded, allowing Luo Ziling to help him lie down. He thought the young man before him was actually quite cunning, strategically stopping the conversation before everything was made clear, sowhat whetting his appetite.
Ling Jinhua indeed believed that his son Ling Ruonan was different from the others and beca more interested in him.
Due to Ling Jinhua’s friendly behavior today, Luo Ziling was quite dedicated in the treatnt, and the effect was very good.
By the end of the treatnt, Ling Jinhua had fallen into a deep sleep, sleeping peacefully.
Today, Luo Ziling didn’t give Ling Jinhua any dicine; such drugs shouldn’t be taken often, as they wouldn’t benefit and could even be harmful.
After all, Ling Jinhua was old, and his body had limited endurance; if he was over-nourished, his body certainly wouldn’t be able to take it.
When Luo Ziling stepped out of Ling Jinhua’s room, he saw two nurses standing at so distance from the door and quickly waved to them.
After instructing two nurses on so matters to pay attention to, Luo Ziling left as well.
Ling Ruonan heard the noise and quickly ca up to et him, asking about the situation with deep concern.
“Mom, let’s talk about it when we get back. Great Grandfather has already fallen asleep. When he wakes up, he will definitely feel a lot better,” Luo Ziling smiled at Ling Ruonan, “He just gave a lot of surprises.”
Ling Ruonan was very surprised but tactfully didn’t ask.
After saying goodbye to Secretary Huang Chen, who was in charge of the old residence’s affairs, the mother and son left the old house.
After they had left the old house, Ling Ruonan raised the soundproof partition and asked eagerly, “What did Great Grandfather say to you?”
“He said he wanted to work with ,” Luo Ziling didn’t hide anything and recounted the incident just now, then added, “I’m very puzzled, how could the old gentleman change like this? It shouldn’t be, right? With his experiences and being in a high position for many years, shouldn’t he be a man of few words?”
“Really?” Ling Ruonan was also extrely surprised, looking at Luo Ziling with disbelief, “Grandpa actually talked so much with you and directly said he wants to cooperate with you? He’s been so forthright?”
Luo Ziling nodded, “Yes, I also find it strange. It feels very abnormal.”
Lu Guangyao, after leaving the Lu Family’s ho, didn’t imdiately depart but rather stayed outside.
It wasn’t until he saw Lu Ting returning that he appeared, blocking her path.
Lu Ting was startled by the sudden appearance of soone, but relaxed upon seeing it was Lu Guangyao.
“Uncle, why are you waiting outside the door?”
Lu Guangyao had always found Lu Ting to be well-behaved, sensible, and helpful, so he spoke directly.
“Do your uncle a favor, persuade your parents to forgive Lu Xue this ti. I will make sure to discipline her properly in the future.”
Lu Ting hesitated.
Lu Guangyao pressed on, “You two are close sisters, and she has never been to the police station in her life. You must be worried, right?”
“It’s not that I don’t want to help, it’s just my parents would never listen to , especially since she hurt my sister.” Lu Ting’s face showed her predicant.
Right now, she was regretting telling Su Mian about this matter the day before.
It would have been fine if she hadn’t gained anything from it, but it only resulted in Qiao Yun being cherished even more.
It really was a case of lifting a rock only to drop it on her own feet.
All because Lu Xue didn’t handle things well and got caught so quickly.
Lu Ting’s refusal made Lu Guangyao anxious, “Lu Xue told that when Qiao Yun first ca back, you had soone scare her?”
Lu Ting’s expression changed drastically, but it was only for a mont before she recovered and said angrily, “Lu Xue acted that way towards my sister, and I’m angry too, but out of the years of our sisterhood, not only have I not held it against her, I’m still worried about whether she’s okay. How could she slander like that!”
Lu Ting’s righteous tone made Lu Guangyao suspect that Lu Xue was lying.
“Anyway, I can’t help you!”
Lu Ting, with anger on her face, walked past Lu Guangyao and left.
She seed pretty mad.
Lu Xue had been waiting for a long ti, only to receive a scolding from Lu Guangyao.
“At a ti like this, you still lie to !”
“When did I ever lie to you?” Lu Xue challenged him.
“This nonsense about Lu Ting bullying Qiao Yun, making up stories. When I ntioned it to Lu Ting, she was angry.”
Lu Guangyao said mockingly, “You fra her and yet expect her to speak for you, dream on!”
Lu Xue was incredulous, completely dumbfounded, “She won’t help ? Impossible!”
Lu Guangyao let out a cold laugh.
“I didn’t lie!” Lu Xue was very aggrieved.
“Okay,” Luo Ziling nodded, feeling that what Ling Ruonan said was mostly agreeable, “I’ll spend more ti talking to him during future treatnts.”
Ling Ruonan also nodded, then added, “He wants to work with you to act as the pike, and the chance he’s giving you to make demands is just a reminder that being this pike is not easy, and can even be very dangerous. So, he wants to compensate you, that must be his intention!”
“So, would I be very foolish to refuse?”
