Chapter 1900: Chapter 1900: Refusing to See Anyone
After dinner, Luo Yuqing and Yang Qingyin went back.
In the evening, Luo Yuqing still had many things to take care of.
Yang Qingyin felt uncomfortable staying at Ling Ruonanâs villa any longer.
Therefore, after eating dinner and helping to clean up the dishes, they left.
After sending them off, Luo Ziling returned as well.
Tonight, Luo Liansheng didnât come home for dinner. He called, saying he was dining with Ouyang Lingyun.
After dinner, he called again, saying he would sleep at Ouyang Lingyunâs villa tonight and wouldnât be coming back.
âYour grandfather still likes to be with his peers. Sir Ouyang and he have a lot in common, after all, theyâve known each other for decades,â Ling Ruonan explained a few words to prevent Luo Ziling from misunderstanding: âLet your grandfather go wherever he wants, anyway, we are usually busy and donât have the time to be with him all the time.â
âMom, why are you explaining so much?â Luo Ziling seemed surprised, âItâs pretty normal for Grandpa to go have dinner and chat with Sir Ouyang.â
âWell, thatâs true,â Ling Ruonan didnât say much more and called Wuyue in, âYou two talk to each other!â
Wuyue seemed a bit bashful, at least in front of Ling Ruonan, not quite her usual self.
âDid my mom say something to you? Or did you say something to my mom?â Seeing Wuyueâs unnatural expression, Luo Ziling curiously asked: âOr did something happen?â
Wuyue hesitated for a moment before saying: âYoung Master, I will be by your side to help you with things, not responsible for your momâs matters anymore. Do you think thatâs okay?â
âMy mom mentioned this just now,â Luo Ziling asked Wuyue with a puzzled face: âHave you already discussed it?â
Wuyue hesitated again but honestly confessed: âYour mom asked if I am willing to come to your side and help you build a team. I agreed!â
âAlright then, youâll handle everything around me from now on,â Luo Ziling was a bit excited to hear this, âDoes that mean I have to take you with me whenever I go out?â
Wuyue was taken aback, then shook her head: âNot necessarily, now that Yang Xiaodong and Wang Zhenjun are with you, let them take care of your safety. If they have other tasks, find other male bodyguards, many times itâs not appropriate for a woman to be with you.â
Luo Ziling breathed a sigh of relief and silently applauded Wuyue for considering this.
âThen write a plan, how I should proceed, how to build the team, anyway I donât understand these things.â
âThe Missâs meaning now is to regard you and Yuqing as a team. She should have mentioned this to Yuqing,â Wuyue whispered: âHer intention, I believe, is to have Yuqing follow your lead. Because, after all, you are a man of the Luo Family.â
âBecause I am her son,â Luo Ziling said with a slight smile, âIn momâs eyes, everything is centered around me.â
Wuyue had no opinions to offer on such matters and could only bow her head in silence.
âAlright, since mom doesnât want you, Iâll take you instead,â Luo Ziling said, patting Wuyueâs shoulder, and in Wuyueâs astonished gaze, he said seriously: âFollowing me means you have to work hard, no slacking off, or Iâll spank you.â
Luo Ziling whispered this last bit into Wuyueâs ear, making her face instantly blush with embarrassment.
âAlright, go do your work,â seeing Wuyue both shy and annoyed, Luo Ziling waved his hand generously, âFor unimportant things, you handle them, I trust you anyway.â
Watching Luo Ziling run upstairs, Wuyue stood still for quite a while and finally left after sighing softly.
Early the next morning, Luo Ziling received a call from Yang Xiaodong.
âIshihara Tarou and Xu Chongzhi are coming to Yanjing on the same day?â Luo Ziling was amused after receiving Yang Xiaodongâs call.
âThose two old guys, did they coordinate? Are they afraid to come alone lest we beat them up?â He joked on the phone and instructed Yang Xiaodong to ignore them and make them wait when Ishihara Naka and Xu Zhiyuan arrived.
Luo Ziling informed his grandfather Luo Liansheng and mother Ling Ruonan about this and shared his opinion of making them wait a day or two before meeting them. Luo Liansheng and Ling Ruonan agreed.
Luo Liansheng told Luo Ziling that these two days he would âhideâ to prepare medicine, conveniently avoiding Ishihara Naka and Xu Zhiyuanâs requests to meet.
The herbs were processed after harvesting, and Luo Liansheng planned to concoct some medicine.
He called on Wang Hanying, He Chennning, Cheng Jiayan for assistance, plus the female team member from Dragon Rise.
Since Luo Liansheng didnât come home, Luo Ziling, who was eager to know what was discussed after he went to the Ouyang Family, had no chance to inquire.
Ling Ruonan happened to have conference activities these two days, attending a business meeting hosted by the Ministry of Commerce, and might not return home in the evenings.
After breakfast, Luo Ziling went to school to attend classes.
By noon, Luo Ziling received another report from Yang Xiaodong, saying Ishihara Tarou and Xu Chongzhi had already arrived in Yanjing and checked into a hotel, and had contacted them.
âIâve already told them youâre unavailable these two days,â Yang Xiaodong happily reported to Luo Ziling, âThey are trying to contact your grandfather but couldnât reach him. They tried your mom, but she was in a meeting and is unavailable to host them today and tomorrow.â
After outlining the situation, Yang Xiaodong chuckled and said: âThose two old guys, knowing weâre playing tricks on them, wonder how furious theyâll become.â
After thinking about it, Luo Ziling instructed: âTomorrow morning, let them meet Ishihara Naka and Xu Zhiyuan, let them feel the gravity of the situation.â
âUnderstood!â
Half an hour later, Luo Ziling received a call from Wuyue.
Wuyue also reported Ishihara Tarou and Xu Chongzhiâs situation, then mentioned Gu Jianâan and Gu Changwei.
âThe Gu Grandfather and Grandson want to see you and your grandfather, do you want to meet them?â
âThey contacted you?â Luo Ziling was surprised.
âThey couldnât reach you or your grandfather, so they tried your mom, and I got the call,â Wuyue, still not official by Luo Zilingâs side, was working with Ling Ruonan these days, handling her work calls.
Gu Changwei and Gu Jianâan could only find Ling Ruonanâs work number, and thus called Wuyue.
âTell them Iâm not available these two days, after my grandfather finishes medicine preparation, weâll meet them.â Luo Ziling did not want to meet Gu Jianâan and Gu Changwei, knowing the grudge between Gu Jianâan and his grandfather, and thus decided to leave the opportunity to humiliate Gu Jianâan to his grandfather.
Wuyue didnât ask further, complied with Luo Zilingâs order.
Luo Ziling went with Cao Jianhui, Li Fuming, and Wu Longjiang to the cafeteria for lunch.
Unexpectedly for Luo Ziling, during lunch, Dai Shulan took the initiative to come looking for him.
