CapĂtulo 2124: Chapter 2124: Everyone Has Their Schemes
(Second Update)
âI want to make a name for myself at school first, and after gaining some influence, Iâll participate in some charity events or community organizations to achieve greater fame and a higher status.â Saying this, Wang Feiyang raised her head, âIf you can help me, achieving these wishes will be much easier.â
âIf you seek help from others, itâs also easy to achieve these wishes, right?â
âYes!â Wang Feiyang did not deny it and nodded seriously, âThatâs true. However, I hope to collaborate with you because you are a man I admire. I havenât met a man as outstanding as you.â
âWhat if I donât want to collaborate with you?â Luo Ziling let go of Wang Feiyang, squinting at her, âWill you consider me an enemy? Want to eliminate me quickly?â
âNo!â Wang Feiyang was a bit surprised, but soon calmed down, âIf we become opponents, I will surely suffer under your hands because you donât play by the rules, and your subordinates have formidable secret abilities. So, I want to collaborate with you, as a collaboration between us would definitely be more than the sum of its parts, leading to a win-win situation.â
Luo Ziling did not promise Wang Feiyang anything but after hearing her say this, responded calmly, âHavenât you forgotten youâre here to apologize today? Donât ever forget this.â
âIâm sorry!â Wang Feiyang, taken aback, felt a bit aggrieved but eventually lowered her head to apologize, âAlthough I didnât do these things, I tacitly agreed to them, so the blame should fall on me entirely. Everything was my fault, please forgive me.â
After glancing at Luo Ziling, she added, âRest assured, I will certainly make amends. At least in the construction of the lab you are leading, I will find ways to have my father support you more. Also, I am willing to participate, doing my utmost to help you. You must involve me in this matter, or I wonât be able to help you fully. Do you understand this?â
âAlright, I accept your apology.â Luo Ziling nodded, âI am also willing to let you participate in the labâs construction. How about this, you help me secure a few national-level research projects, projects that can be implemented immediately, projects that can be established this year.â
This request might not seem like much to outsiders, but it startled Wang Feiyang.
Having some understanding of academic situations, she knew how challenging it was to accomplish this.
Project initiation and approval not only require extensive time but demand assistance from many people; obtaining a letter of approval is immensely difficult.
However, once approved, there would be substantial funding support, allowing researchers to have prosperous days.
If the outcomes eventually receive awards, fame would rise quickly, and funds would be ample, epitomizing a situation of fame and fortune.
Luo Zilingâs appetite was indeed large; he wanted not just one project, but several.
Yet Wang Feiyang eventually did not refuse. After hesitating briefly, she nodded, âAlright, Iâll help you fight for it. I guarantee we can secure at least one project.â
Although she was not very clear about the research conducted by Luo Ziling, she knew one thing.
With the support of the Ling Family and Ling Ruonan at work, Luo Ziling could easily achieve these accomplishments.
Luo Ziling asked her to help secure these things just to gain her pledge of allegiance.
âAlright!â Wang Feiyang was so straightforward that Luo Ziling finally smiled, âWhy donât you contact someone called Dong Xiaowan? She is acting as my secretary now, handling many matters. You are roughly the same age, communication wonât be difficult. She hails from a family with a strong tradition in medicine, knows a lot about traditional medicine, and is very intelligent. Iâm sure youâll have a pleasant cooperation.â
âYet another beautiful woman?â Wang Feiyang looked at Luo Ziling playfully.
âI like collaborating with smart and beautiful women.â Luo Ziling replied playfully as well.
This comment made Wang Feiyang roll her eyes.
âWell, since things have already reached this point, letâs leave it at that.â Luo Ziling checked the time, then said to Wang Feiyang, âItâs getting late, I have to go.â
âAlright!â Although disappointed, Wang Feiyang agreed.
âYou cover the bill, you came to apologize, after all, there should be some cost!â As he left, Luo Ziling made a joke.
âNo problem. Hope next time youâll treat me to a meal or tea, a late-night snack maybe.â
âIf what you do surprises me.â Luo Ziling said before leaving.
Rather than going home immediately, he sought out Luo Yuqing.
Luo Yuqing was still busy, but upon receiving Luo Zilingâs call, she came to meet him right away.
After listening to Luo Ziling recount the eveningâs events, Luo Yuqing fell silent.
After a brief pause, she softly asked, âDidnât you tell her not to compete with me for the student council presidentâs position for now?â
âThatâs not important anymore, right? If her apology goes public, will people still support her?â Luo Ziling patted Luo Yuqingâs cheek and smiled, âThe key point is, she has already bowed down to us. Her hype actually worked quite well, not only gaining her fame but also providing free publicity for us.â
âThen why did you ask her to find Dong Xiaowan?â Luo Yuqing was a bit surprised.
âWang Feiyang is about evenly matched with Dong Xiaowan now, I mean if they were to compete, it should be a draw.â
âOh, I get it!â Luo Yuqing responded sarcastically, âYouâre planning to let them compete, while you reap the benefits?â
âYes!â Luo Ziling didnât deny it, âLetting them compete isnât a bad thing. At least, it saves me a lot of trouble. Theyâre smart people, they know how to gain an advantage, maximizing their potential!â
âYou like using women against women so much, seems youâre quite aware of womenâs nature!â Luo Yuqing continued staring at Luo Ziling with a sarcastic look, âDoes this mean youâll eventually use a woman against me too, making me compete with her!â
âYouâre my sister, itâs not the same, is it?â Luo Ziling tapped Luo Yuqingâs head a little annoyed, âDonât be so childish, right? Focus on your work, and after some time Iâll take you to the place where Grandpa and I lived for twenty years.â
âAlright!â Going to the Northwest excited Luo Yuqing, but Luo Zilingâs thoughts were far more complex than she imagined, which made her a bit annoyed. Initially, she thought she could use her advantages as a woman to dominate Luo Ziling; now, sheâs realizing her thinking was too simplistic.
She has more work to do!
Luo Ziling is far more cunning than she imagined; although Luo Yuqing knows Luo Ziling wonât harm her, at least not now, sheâs a bit disheartened she couldnât dominate certain aspects.
