Chapter 1085 - 1085 1085 You Want to Be Her Daughter-in-Law

Chapter 1085: Chapter 1085: You Want to Be Her Daughter-in-Law Chapter 1085: Chapter 1085: You Want to Be Her Daughter-in-Law After dinner, Ouyang Feifei diligently helped with clearing the plates and bowls.

“Mrs. Ling, let me help with the dishes!” Ouyang Feifei said sweetly while helping to clear the table, “You’ve been busy all day. Take a seat and rest for a while, and have a chat with Ziling. Wuyue and I can handle these small matters.”

In fact, Miss Ouyang had never washed dishes before, nor had she ever imagined that one day she would enter the kitchen to do such servile work.

She couldn’t understand why Ling Ruonan didn’t hire a servant to take care of daily chores like cooking and washing dishes, insisting on doing it herself.

Miss Ling, the queen of Northern Group with a market value of hundreds of billions, turned into an ordinary housewife when she came home—it was truly unbelievable.

She detested these trivial tasks, but today she offered to help with the intent, of course, hoping that Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan would change their attitude towards her.

Although Ling Ruonan was surprised that Ouyang Feifei offered to help with household chores, she thought about it and didn’t refuse.

After leaving the kitchen, she took Luo Ziling upstairs, ready to discuss more matters.

Luo Ziling thought that Ling Ruonan was taking him upstairs to talk about the issues between Ouyang Feifei and Yang Qingyin, and to ask if his views on the two girls had changed. Unexpectedly, Ling Ruonan brought up the matter of drug manufacturing.

“The few prescriptions you provided to Ouyang Feifei have greatly increased the net profit of Lingyun Group. If you give her more prescriptions, the market value of Lingyun Group will multiply,” Ling Ruonan said with a slightly serious expression. “You need to control the number of prescriptions you give to Ouyang Feifei to avoid trouble.”

“Mom, why would there be trouble?” Luo Ziling was puzzled.

“The medicine you and Grandpa developed shouldn’t just make money for others,” Ling Ruonan said seriously. “You’re currently not planning to marry her. Even if you were, Lingyun Pharmaceutical is not hers alone. To my knowledge, her personal share in Lingyun Pharmaceutical is very small, currently even less than yours. The Lingyun Group is the controlling shareholder, but these shares don’t belong to Ouyang Feifei personally, they belong to the entire Ouyang Family.”

Luo Ziling was completely unaware of share ownership issues, so he listened in confusion.

“Mom is currently getting Wuyue to do something, which is to purchase shares in a listed pharmaceutical company, striving to become a major or controlling shareholder, all in your name. If the acquisition is successful, then you’ll have your own pharmaceutical company. Through your controlling company, you can put the developed prescriptions into production, benefiting the public while also profiting for yourself. Therefore, you should control the scale of your cooperation with Ouyang Feifei, even if you plan to marry her.”

Hearing this, Luo Ziling was quite surprised. He had thought that his mother was already very good to Ouyang Feifei, and that the two women had a good relationship, but he hadn’t expected that Ling Ruonan didn’t trust Ouyang Feifei as much as he thought.

Ling Ruonan seemed to know what Luo Ziling was thinking and explained further, “After all, Ouyang Feifei’s surname is Ouyang. She’s just a member of the Ouyang Family. Don’t think that Ouyang Lingyun trusts her that much, but if she gets married, the old man won’t let her continue to lead the Ouyang Family. The dowry he gives her won’t be too generous either. In a nutshell, if Lingyun Pharmaceutical grows too fast, the Ouyang Family will be the biggest beneficiary, making a fortune while you make a small profit.”

“Mom, I think I understand what you mean,” Luo Ziling had an epiphany, “so I’ll give her some of the more common prescriptions. The more precious ones, I’ll save until we have our own pharmaceutical company, and then we can make the big money for ourselves.”

“As long as the prescriptions are not the same, there won’t be competition. You must understand this.”

“I understand,” Luo Ziling nodded gravely.

Ling Ruonan didn’t continue on the topic.

Just when Luo Ziling thought Ling Ruonan was ready to end their mother-son confidential talk, she brought up the very issue that Luo Ziling had been worried about.

“Actually, I think Ouyang Feifei is more suitable for you,” Ling Ruonan said softly, “Being with her would be more beneficial for you, and the troubles you encounter would be much less. Both are equally proud, but Ouyang Feifei’s pride is somewhat more agreeable than Yang Qingyin’s, and she understands the intricacies of social relationships better.”

“Mom,” Luo Ziling seemed a bit embarrassed, “I’m still in school and definitely not considering marriage right now. Can we just not conclude anything for the moment?”

“All right,” Ling Ruonan sighed, “Anyway, it’s all up to you to decide. No matter who you choose to marry, I will accept and support you.”

“Mom, you’re really open-minded,” Luo Ziling reached out and wrapped his arm around Ling Ruonan’s arm, “I’m sure many people envy me for having such an outstanding mother like you.”

“I owe you too much, and I don’t want to impose anything on you anymore.” Ling Ruonan replied with a wry smile and patted Luo Ziling’s hand. She then reminded him, “Go on down, they must be almost done by now. Are you going to sleep here tonight, or go back to school?”

“I’m planning to treat Ouyang Feifei again, so I’ll walk with her!”

Ling Ruonan cast a curious glance at Luo Ziling but didn’t ask anything.

When they went downstairs, as expected, Ouyang Feifei and Wuyue had already tidied up.

After sitting down in the living room and Wuyue made some tea, he quietly left, not disturbing the conversation among the three of them.

Ouyang Feifei and Ling Ruonan discussed business cooperation, Luo Ziling’s current situation, how to improve his prospects in the pharmaceutical field, and the planning of the properties under his name. They had a fruitful discussion.

Although the discussion was about Luo Ziling, he, the “main person” involved, was like a bystander, unable to offer any opinion.

Eventually, he stepped out to speak with Wuyue, not wanting to disturb the two women.

After talking for about half an hour, Ouyang Feifei suggested it was time for her to leave.

Luo Ziling, who was speaking with Wuyue, also offered to leave with her, and Ling Ruonan agreed.

Seeing Luo Ziling and Ouyang Feifei leave together, Wuyue felt a pang of dissatisfaction, though he didn’t show it.

On their way out, Ouyang Feifei asked softly, “What did your mom talk to you about just now?”

Luo Ziling did not answer but instead asked, “Do you want to know if we talked about something related to you?”

Ouyang Feifei’s expression froze momentarily, but she just rolled her eyes and didn’t respond.

“Because of the previous issues, your mom has always been dissatisfied with me,” Ouyang Feifei sighed softly, “If you can, please say a few good words for me in front of her.”

“You want to be her daughter-in-law?”

Ouyang Feifei was not expecting Luo Ziling to ask that and was momentarily frozen again before her pretty face turned bright red.
