Chapter 1229 - 1229 1229 I Also Hope That We Do Not Let Each

Chapter 1229: Chapter 1229: I Also Hope That We Do Not Let Each Other Down Chapter 1229: Chapter 1229: I Also Hope That We Do Not Let Each Other Down Yang Qingyin also brought Luo Liansheng a New Year’s gift, a scarf she had knitted by hand.

Of course, Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan had one each as well.

Although Yang Qingyin was the pampered Miss Yang, raised in luxury, her needlework skills were quite impressive. She could knit sweaters with considerable technical proficiency, and making scarves was a piece of cake for her.

She had also knitted one for Luo Xusheng and brought it today, along with Ling Ruonan’s.

Luo Liansheng didn’t refuse the gift. He accepted it with glee and gave her a gift in return.

He gave Yang Qingyin a living ginseng plant to take home and care for.

Yang Qingyin was surprised and delighted to receive such a gift from Luo Liansheng, but she was also a bit nervous.

She knew the gift was precious, but had no idea how to care for a ginseng plant, afraid that if she accidentally killed it one day, it would be terribly embarrassing.

Nevertheless, she still happily accepted it and thanked him profusely.

Yang Qingyin’s upbringing was excellent; she was polite and graceful in her interactions with others. Plus, her beauty made it easy for her to win over the elders.

Although Luo Liansheng was worried that Yang Qingyin might be too cunning and Luo Ziling too easily deceived, after spending some time with her, he too grew fond of this smart and sensible girl who was also beautiful.

They had met before and the impression was good then. Meeting her again today, the impression improved even more.

Yang Qingyin didn’t stay long, leaving after sitting for about half an hour.

Luo Liansheng had just come to the Capital from out of town and had been drinking. He definitely needed to rest early, and he also wanted to spend more time chatting with Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan. If she stayed too long, it would be inconsiderate.

Ling Ruonan told Luo Ziling to escort Yang Qingyin out, and Luo Ziling obediently did so.

Even without Ling Ruonan’s instruction, he would have done the same.

“Tonight, your grandfather drank quite a bit, and he seemed to be in a really good mood,” as they walked outside, Yang Qingyin turned to look at Luo Ziling with a smile, “When the two old gentlemen met, did they embody Mr. Zhou’s verse, ‘After enduring countless trials, brothers are reunited; a single smile dissipates all resentments’?”

“When I saw them toasting and drinking heartily, I also thought of those lines,” Luo Ziling looked back at Yang Qingyin with a smile, “Does this mean we’re on the same wavelength?”

“Who’s on the same wavelength as you,” Yang Qingyin rolled her eyes at him, then immediately laughed, “It’s really nice to see the two old gentlemen not dwelling on the past. Just by the joy on your mother’s face, you can tell.”

Luo Ziling asked out of curiosity, “How do you know about the feud between my grandfather and my maternal grandfather?”

“Actually, it’s easy to guess,” sighed Yang Qingyin, “My mom has mentioned some past conflicts between the two elderly men before; it seems they almost came to blows. Sigh, to think family by marriage could have come to such a pass.”

Luo Ziling burst into laughter, “My maternal grandfather definitely couldn’t beat my grandfather, and neither could his group of bodyguards. I’m sure of that. If there really had been a fight back then, my maternal grandfather would have been the one to lose.”

“You Luo family members are all violent!”

“If something can be settled with fists, there’s no need for words,” Luo Ziling raised his fists proudly, “That’s our family motto!”

“Pfft,” Yang Qingyin suddenly laughed. “Is that really your family motto?”

“In the future, it’s going to be the family motto I pass on to my son and daughter!”

“No way!” Yang Qingyin was a bit anxious. “How can you establish such a family motto?”

“Then you come up with a family motto, and we’ll pass it on to our son and daughter!”

While Yang Qingyin was thinking, she suddenly realized she had fallen into the trap Luo Ziling had set for her.

Feeling slightly annoyed, she gave Luo Ziling a kick and complained, “I never even thought about marrying you, not to mention having sons and daughters. Hmph, you annoying junior!”

“You better think about it seriously,” Luo Ziling said earnestly, “and come up with a good family motto to make full use of your talented woman’s wit. I’m telling you, in the future, you’ll be in charge of educating our son and daughter. I’ll only teach them martial arts; I won’t get involved in anything else.”

“How could that be?” Yang Qingyin was annoyed again. “You just like taking advantage of me. Hmph, there’s no way I’m having kids with you. Unless you manage to win over my dad and my grandpa.”

“I only like women, I’m not interested in men!”

Yang Qingyin, both angry and annoyed, kicked Luo Ziling again. “You annoying junior, you just love talking nonsense. I’m not dealing with you anymore!”

Saying this, she stormed off.

Luo Ziling hurriedly followed and caught Yang Qingyin’s hand.

“Sigh, I hadn’t thought, back in the day, my grandpa and my maternal grandpa actually had such intense conflicts,” Luo Ziling said with a deep sigh, then added with a hint of amusement, “I believe, back then, my dad definitely fought with the descendants of the Ling Family and came out on top as well.”

“Are you trying to brag that you’ve continued their glorious tradition, and after returning to Yanjing, you beat up a lot of people until they were down and out?”

Seeing the dissatisfaction on Yang Qingyin’s face as she spoke, Luo Ziling quickly shook his head. “I definitely wouldn’t fight with your brother. Qingye and I are good friends. That’s very important. You see, my grandpa and the Chen Family have deep enmity, and my dad also has significant beef with the descendants of the Ling Family, but your brother and I are conflict-free. You could say I’ve made great progress compared to them. Just think, they faced more challenges than me, with them as role models, we have nothing to worry about.”

Luo Ziling’s words touched Yang Qingyin.

She didn’t say anything more; she just hooked her arm through Luo Ziling’s and rested her head on his shoulder.

After a lengthy silence, Yang Qingyin finally said, “Junior, my grandpa has recently softened his stance towards you a bit, but my dad’s attitude towards you hasn’t changed, and his resentment towards you is even greater. I hope that with our efforts, we can change all this in the not-too-distant future.”

Having said this, Yang Qingyin looked up at Luo Ziling. “Ziling, I hope that when you’re around my family, you can be a bit more patient. After all, they are my relatives, my elders. I believe in an ancient saying, ‘With sincerity, even metal and stone can be penetrated.’ Your parents endured for so many years and eventually changed the Ling Family elders’ attitudes. You also said our situation is much better than theirs, and we have their setbacks for reference, so shouldn’t we do even better?”

Luo Ziling stopped walking and stood face to face with Yang Qingyin, speaking very seriously. “As long as you’re willing to be with me, I’m willing to put in all my effort to make things right!”

“Mm, I hope everything turns out well,” Yang Qingyin nodded firmly. “And I hope we don’t let each other down!”

“As long as you’re willing to marry, I’m ready to wed!”

“Hmph, even if you’re willing to wed, I still… hmph, why should I tell you my decision?”

“…”
