Chapter 1192: Chapter 1192: Outraged Chapter 1192: Chapter 1192: Outraged âLuo, you are too arrogant,â seeing his two bodyguards knocked down and Luo Ziling and Yang Xiaodong preparing to leave as if nothing had happened, Chen Yining was furious. âEven if you are Ling Ruonanâs son, you have no right to be so arrogant in front of me.â
âMr. Chen,â Luo Ziling stopped in his tracks and turned his head to look at Chen Yining, âI also hope you remember not to shout orders at me just because you are older and hold a higher position. I donât know you, and I donât want to know you.â
âI am a friend of Chen Xiaoyi and I saved her when she was injured. I donât need her thanks because I did it willingly. I donât need your thanks either, and I refuse your hostility. I donât owe you anything, so donât command me in a condescending tone, and donât even think about using force on us. We wonât tolerate that,â Luo Ziling said bluntly.
âYouâŠ.â Chen Yining was so choked by Luo Zilingâs words that he almost passed out.
As the heir apparent Family Head of the Chen Family, Chen Yining held a very high status in the old generation of wastrels in Yanjing, even more prestigious than Ling Zhengping, Yang Yunlin, and Fang Xiang.
Even these people wouldnât dare to act so brazenly in front of him.
It can also be said that for many years, Chen Yining had not seen anyone be so arrogant in front of him.
He was so angry that he couldnât express it in words and even harbored thoughts of murder.
He knew that his son, Chen Jiahai, had always had a feud with Luo Ziling.
How the feud started, he didnât know and wasnât particularly interested in investigating.
He only knew one thing, that his son wanted to kill this person.
Chen Yining also wished Luo Ziling dead, but his main reason was because Luo Zilingâs grandfather, Luo Liansheng, had eloped with a woman from the Chen Family.
This was a disgrace to the Chen Family.
Chen Jiahai encountered trouble, was retaliated against by a woman, and it was very likely orchestrated by Luo Ziling.
That is to say, Luo Ziling could very well be the mastermind behind it.
Chen Yining wished even more for Luo Zilingâs death.
Upon learning about Chen Jiahaiâs situation, he immediately pressured the police to list Luo Ziling as the prime suspect.
Unexpectedly, the police didnât adhere to his wishes.
Days passed, and they neither detained Luo Ziling nor restricted his movements, and there wasnât even an interrogation.
Later, he learned that Luo Ziling had a Dragon Rise identity, which made the police wary of Dragon Riseâs reaction, so without clear evidence of Luo Zilingâs criminal suspicion, they didnât take any coercive action against him.
This infuriated Chen Yining.
Last night, Luo Ziling saved the injured Chen Xiaoyi which didnât endear him to Chen Yining at all.
Seeing how affectionately Chen Xiaoyi looked at Luo Ziling, suffering severe injuries yet refusing to go to the hospital and insisting on staying home for Luo Ziling to treat her, made him even more furious.
Yesterday evening, when they came over and saw Xiaoyi without any clothes on, they immediately assumed that Ziling had taken them off. Thus, they thought that Xiaoyi, who was deeply infatuated with Ziling, might have already developed a special relationship with him.
Chen Yining wished he could stab Ziling to death.
As the father of Chen Jiahai and Xiaoyi and the future head of the Chen Family, Chen Yining needed to assert his authority and suppress Ziling. Therefore, he planned to seriously humiliate Ziling.
He couldnât kill Ziling, but he could certainly scold him severely.
However, he didnât expect Ziling to be so arrogant, not showing him any respect and even repeatedly threatening him.
Now, Zilingâs bodyguard even dared to knock his bodyguard to the ground publicly, and moreover, Ziling belittled him again.
No matter how composed Chen Yining was, he couldnât help but explode in anger.
But just as he was about to erupt with rage provoked by Ziling, Ziling had already left the room.
âYining, donât be angry, itâs not worth getting upset over a wild kid,â Jiang Nan quickly tried to calm the visibly agitated Chen Yining, âAn uncultured, ill-bred villager from who knows where, heâs not worth your time.â
Hearing Jiang Nan speak about Ziling in such a manner, Fang Qianqian, who was planning to stay and help take care of Xiaoyi, immediately took offense.
âAunty Jiang, you shouldnât talk about Ziling like that,â she stepped forward seriously to argue with Jiang Nan, âZiling and your familyâs Chen Jiahai have always had conflicts, but I know that Ziling has been forbearing, while Chen Jiahai has repeatedly tried to take his life. The reason is simply because Ziling is Ouyang Feifeiâs fiancĂ©, and Chen Jiahai wants to pursue Feifei. Ziling doesnât hold grudges; after Xiaoyi got hurt, he rushed to the scene immediately, saved her, and went all out to treat her. Despite that, you donât appreciate it and instead speak ill of him behind his back. Thatâs really ungrateful of you. It disheartens everyone.â
Fang Qianqian also felt uncomfortable seeing Chen Yining acting so imperiously.
The Fang Family were always polite to Ziling, considering him a very capable and promising individual, encouraging frequent interactions with him.
With the elders saying this, and coupled with Ziling having saved Fang Dongxun, Fang Qianqian liked Ziling and disliked hearing others speak ill of him. After hearing Jiang Nanâs harsh words calling Ziling a wild child and an uncultured villager, she finally couldnât hold back and stood up to retort.
Seeing Fang Qianqian step up to confront Jiang Nan, Chen Xiaoxiao quickly pulled her hand to persuade her not to do so.
But Fang Qianqian wasnât moved, instead she defiantly said, âForget it, I wonât stay to help take care of Xiaoyi anymore. Although we are very close and Iâm more than willing to care for her, Iâm also afraid that after all my efforts, Iâll just end up being criticized by you.â
Jiang Nan, taken aback by Fang Qianqianâs questioning, turned pale with anger.
âQianqian, how can you say that?â she couldnât believe that the sweet-talking âauntieâ Fang Familyâs young lady, who used to visit them, would turn against her for a stranger.
But Fang Qianqian was unappreciative, walking into the room afterward and said to Xiaoyi, âXiaoyi, you must have heard what your mom just said. Treating someone who saved your life like this really disheartens me. Forget it, Iâm not getting involved anymore. With the final exams coming up, Iâm better off going back to study. Iâll visit you again, and if you go to the hospital, let me know. Iâm leaving now!â
Saying that, she packed up her things, apologized to Chen Xiaoxiao and said goodbye to Chen Yining and Jiang Nan, then turned and left.
âUncle, Aunt,â Chen Xiaoxiao quickly stepped forward to calm Chen Yining and Jiang Nan, âPlease donât do this. For Xiaoyiâs health, donât fight here.â
âCall an ambulance and send Xiaoyi to the hospital,â said an iron-faced Chen Yining, standing up to instruct Jiang Nan, who was too upset to speak, âSince youâre free, you accompany her.â
Then he yelled loudly at Xiaoyi lying inside, âGo to the hospital immediately, and donât let that Luo guy come again. I donât believe we canât heal your injuries without him.â
