Chapter 1124 - 1124 1124 Another Beauty

Chapter 1124: Chapter 1124 Another Beauty Chapter 1124: Chapter 1124 Another Beauty After breakfast, Ling Ruonan instructed Luo Ziling to accompany her to an event.

It was a charity event attended by many entrepreneurs, aiming to raise funds for children in impoverished western regions to build several Hope Primary Schools.

The previous night, while Luo Ziling was massaging Ling Ruonan, she had intended to mention the charity event scheduled for the morning but fell asleep quickly during the massage and ended up forgetting to mention it.

She had also wanted to discuss something about Luo Xusheng with Luo Ziling, but that too slipped her mind.

Luo Ziling was surprised that Ling Ruonan would take him to such an event, yet he did not refuse and obediently accepted the arrangement.

Before leaving, he changed into a suit and put on a tie.

Although wearing a tie and suit was very uncomfortable, Ling Ruonan had requested it, and Luo Ziling did not object.

Dressed and ready, standing in front of the mirror, he saw a young man so handsome that he felt jealous of himself—sure to attract any other women who would be at the event.

On the way there, Ling Ruonan finally explained in detail about the charity event they were going to attend.

Organized by the Business Federation, the fundraising aimed for eighty million to build ten Hope Primary Schools in the western part, and Ling Ruonan was one of the organizers. She wanted to take Luo Ziling to such an event to let others know about their relationship and to give Luo Ziling an opportunity to make a public appearance.

Initially, Ling Ruonan did not want Luo Ziling to be so exposed, but as time passed and circumstances changed, she now wanted more people to know about him.

After all, many people already knew about Luo Ziling returning to school and his conflict with Chen Jiahai.

Luo Ziling had also made appearances at other events, which had brought him a bit of fame.

Under such circumstances, there was no point in keeping Luo Ziling from making public appearances.

For Luo Ziling’s future, to extend his network further, Ling Ruonan decided to bring him to more official events to increase his opportunities for recognition. Her pride was the reason she did not let Luo Ziling meet other people herself.

Like her, she wasn’t too interested in meeting others, though many wanted to meet her. If Luo Ziling attended events with her, many would learn that he was her son, an outstanding individual.

That would be sufficient for everyone to think so.

The people Luo Ziling needed to actively acquaint himself with were generally of matching status.

In such matters, Luo Ziling had no experience or say, and he obediently followed Ling Ruonan’s instructions without intending to go against her wishes.

The fundraising event took place at a hotel not far from Ling Ruonan’s residence.

It was a four-star hotel that provided the venue and other services for free, not charging the organizers anything. To minimize the charity event’s expenses, the organizers did not indulge in extravagance, keeping everything simple, even the decorations were minimal.

Those who attended the charity event that day were quite renowned figures.

Some of these figures, Luo Ziling had seen on television. One could say these figures were not much different in status from Ling Ruonan.

However, Ling Ruonan did not introduce Luo Ziling specifically, only telling them that Luo Ziling was her son, who had been abroad for a long time and had only returned to Yanjing last year, thus a new face to them.

When people heard that Luo Ziling, a very handsome young man, was Ling Ruonan’s son, many were surprised.

Consequently, many people rushed to get close to Luo Ziling, and some of the female attendees were particularly enthusiastic.

Some even inquired with Ling Ruonan if Luo Ziling had a girlfriend.

Most of the female guests at the charity event were older than Ling Ruonan, or at most the same age. They had daughters and, coming from prestigious families, cherished their daughters and were all seeking a suitable son-in-law.

Luo Ziling, a quintessential tall, rich, and handsome man, was naturally their preferred candidate for a son-in-law.

However, Ling Ruonan’s remark that Luo Ziling already had a girlfriend instantly shattered the hopes of many who were seeking a perfect son-in-law.

It was while Ling Ruonan was leading Luo Ziling to greet everyone that another group of people came in.

Seeing the newcomers, many immediately went up to greet them warmly.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Ling Ruonan quickly whispered to Luo Ziling, “Li Jiawei, Wang Zhengqiang’s wife. The woman next to her is their daughter, Wang Feiyang.”

Luo Ziling was initially unable to recall who Wang Zhengqiang was, but on the way over to greet them with Ling Ruonan, he suddenly remembered.

He had met Wang Zhengqiang during a New Year’s greeting meeting with Ling Jinhua.

Wang Zhengqiang, a figure of significant rank, was someone Luo Ziling had surprisingly forgotten.

He also blamed Ling Ruonan for not reminding him more, which nearly caused him to be caught off guard.

Before Li Jiawei and her daughter Wang Feiyang arrived, Ling Ruonan could be considered the most prestigious attendee.

In many people’s eyes, Li Jiawei held a higher status than Ling Ruonan, thus upon her arrival, she became the center of attention.

Seeing Ling Ruonan walking over with Luo Ziling, Li Jiawei nodded to others then walked over with a beaming smile.

“Ruonan, didn’t expect you to arrive earlier than me,” Li Jiawei reached out her hand to Ling Ruonan, her smile growing wider, “Is this your son? I can’t believe how handsome he is, even prettier than you! Even an old woman like me gets her heart racing seeing him!”

Upon hearing Li Jiawei compliment Luo Ziling’s handsomeness, Ling Ruonan couldn’t help but laugh, “Jiawei, you flatter him too much. Ziling is still an unpolished student, not yet a grown man. But your Feiyang, she’s become more beautiful and is growing up into a real beauty.”

After exchanging these pleasantries, Ling Ruonan quickly had Luo Ziling step forward to meet Li Jiawei.

“Hello, Auntie,” Luo Ziling greeted politely.

“Hello, Ziling,” Li Jiawei reached out and shook hands with Luo Ziling, her smile widening, “Feiyang’s father mentioned you the other day, and I’ve been curious to see what you looked like. I didn’t expect you to be so charming, no wonder your mother is so happy.”

“Auntie is joking; I’m just a country boy,” Luo Ziling replied modestly, slightly bashful as he shook hands with Li Jiawei.

After shaking hands with Li Jiawei, he extended his hand to Wang Feiyang, who was staring at him without blinking, “Hello, Miss Wang, I’m Luo Ziling.”

Wang Feiyang let out a peculiar smile at the corner of her mouth, shook hands gently with Luo Ziling, and said softly, “You’re the most stylish boy I’ve ever met.”

Wang Feiyang’s comment left Luo Ziling stunned.
