Chapter 1465: Chapter 1465: Walking Away Dejectedly
Luo Ziling, after staring directly at Yang Yuanshan for a while without backing down, finally answered Yang Yuanshanâs question: âEverything I did was merely for self-preservation, not to be bullied. I think this is the means anyone would take when faced with a crisis.â
âYou havenât considered the consequences?â Yang Yuanshanâs gaze remained sharp, and his tone was unfriendly.
âI consider myself to be quite merciful,â Luo Ziling replied without fear, neither humble nor arrogant, âI donât want to go to the extent of eradicating them completely.â
âWhat more do you want?â Yang Yuanshan was a little angry.
âWhoever is good to me, I will be good to them; whoever disgusts me, I will disgust them. Whoever tries to make our lives miserable, I will ensure they canât live comfortably. Whoever wants me dead, I will make sure they die first!â Saying this, Luo Ziling smiled, âSir Yang, do I seem like a passionate person?â
âYouâre just a madman,â Yang Yuanshan looked at Luo Ziling with a frosty expression, âDo you think you can withstand othersâ revenge?â
âWhether or not I can withstand it, Iâm living through it,â Luo Ziling ignored the coldness in Yang Yuanshanâs words, âSince coming to Yanjing, Iâve gone through so many things, seen so much wickedness in peopleâs hearts, nearly lost my life several times. What could be worse than that?â
Yang Yuanshan didnât say much, just sighed lightly.
Luo Ziling also didnât say anything, accompanying Yang Yuanshan in silent sitting.
After a while, Yang Yuanshan finally spoke again: âYou should leave, alone. Today, Qingyin will stay here and chat with me.â
âAlright,â Luo Ziling knew that Yang Yuanshan refused his offer to check and treat him, and didnât push further, so he slowly stood up, bowed to Yang Yuanshan, âSir Yang, then I shall leave. Once again, I wish you health and longevity.â
Having said that, before Yang Yuanshan could respond, he strode outside.
Yang Qingyin had been observing Luo Ziling and Yang Yuanshan, and seeing Luo Ziling get up to leave, she immediately knew something was wrong.
âZiling, whatâs wrong?â She chased out of the room, asking Luo Ziling with a tense expression.
âIâm leaving first, you stay and chat with your grandfather. As for what happened, he should tell you.â Luo Ziling said, smiling apologetically at Yang Qingyin, âItâs a pity we didnât bring our own car. Look, didnât you miscalculate? Wang Zhenjun and I have to walk away from here.â
Yang Qingyin looked at Luo Ziling bewildered, her face showing a rich expression, from surprise to dejection, then a little at a loss. Finally, she lowered her head and after a while of silence, when she lifted her head again, she smiled wryly, âTake our car. Itâs quite a walk to the nearest place you can catch a ride.â
âNo need,â Luo Ziling shook his head, âYour grandfather doesnât welcome me; he asked me to leave first. If I take your car, it will make him even angrier. In the dead of winter, with little exercise and waking up late without morning practice, walking will be used as a form of exercise.â
As Luo Ziling said this, he smiled, waved to Yang Qingyin, and left in large strides.
Wang Zhenjun was chatting with Ye Xiaoli in the car, both of them couldnât have anticipated Luo Ziling leaving so soon.
Upon learning that Luo Ziling intended to walk away from the Yang Family Old House, Wang Zhenjun and Ye Xiaoli were even more surprised.
âLetâs go; letâs also experience being shown the door.â Luo Ziling chuckled and started walking first.
Wang Zhenjun hurriedly got out of the car, catching up with Luo Ziling.
âYoung sir, are we really leaving so dejectedly on foot?â Wang Zhenjun still couldnât quite believe it.
âIsnât walking good? You can exercise,â Luo Ziling didnât mind, âAs we leave, we can check out the surroundings. If one day we need to sneak in here for some mischief, nowâs a good time to observe.â
Listening to Luo Zilingâs words, Wang Zhenjun glanced at the heavily guarded area, both visibly and in secret, and eventually said nothing more.
Just as they were walking out of the old mansionâs gate, a car quickly approached from behind.
It was Ye Xiaoli driving an Audi A4.
The car stopped beside them, and the driverâs window rolled down, revealing Ye Xiaoliâs face, âLet me give you a lift.â
âNo need,â Luo Ziling shook his head, âGive Sir Yang some face. If you keep doing this, he will be even angrier.â
âMakes sense,â Wang Zhenjun nodded and then smiled at Ye Xiaoli, âWeâre fine; you head back. Qingyin might leave soon too.â
After thinking it over, Ye Xiaoli didnât insist, she reversed her car back.
After walking for about half an hour, they finally reached a more bustling area.
They hailed a taxi, went to the parking spot, and only then did Wang Zhenjun softly ask, âHas the situation become troublesome?â
Luo Ziling nodded, âOld Sir Yang is furious. He definitely believes Yang Yunzhongâs injury is our doing, and I canât deny it.â
âI got it,â Wang Zhenjun seemed a bit irritated, âIt looks like others want to frame us, and we canât clear our names.â
âIf thatâs the case, then letâs do more things, lest it gets too boring,â Luo Ziling said, a cruel smile on his face, âWhoever we donât like, weâll take care of them and while weâre at it, letâs pin the blame on those we donât like even more. The chaos might actually work in our favor.â
âHaha, after all, we have nothing else to do,â Wang Zhenjun said, then started the car.
After the car entered the main road, Luo Ziling instructed, âGo to the Northern Group headquarters, bring Wang Zhenjun over, and call Wuyue as well. The four of us need to discuss some things.â
âUnderstood,â Wang Zhenjun agreed and immediately called Yang Xiaodong to meet them at the Northern Group headquarters.
When they arrived at the Northern Group headquarters, Yang Xiaodong was already waiting there.
Luo Ziling called Wuyue, asking if she was available to meet as they had something to discuss with her.
Wuyue hesitated for a while and then lightly replied, âA bit busy, but if itâs a conversation within fifteen minutes, I can make time.â
âThen tell us the location, weâre coming up!â
After Wuyue told them the floor and room number, she hung up the call.
The three of them took a private elevator to the floor Wuyue mentioned and saw her waiting outside.
Seeing Luo Ziling, Yang Xiaodong, and Wang Zhenjun together, Wuyue wasnât surprised.
Once inside the vacant room, Wang Zhenjun recounted what had happened today and shared his suspicions: âIf Iâm correct, then in the coming time, someone will certainly retaliate against us, and very viciously. I suggest we strike first.â
âIâve already formulated a plan,â Wuyue, with a calm expression, responded to Wang Zhenjun before looking at Luo Ziling, âI hope that with the upcoming actions, we can have a coordinated and unified arrangement.â
âAll of you listen to Wuyue,â Luo Ziling instructed Yang Xiaodong and Wang Zhenjun, âDonât act on your own.â
âAlright!â
