Chapter 2180: Chapter 2180: Out of My League

Luo Ziling didn’t embarrass Ouyang Feifei; when he spoke to her, he intentionally lowered his voice so others wouldn’t hear.

Visiting someone’s home and then questioning the host would surely seem impolite to others.

Ouyang Feifei didn’t expect Luo Ziling to question her right away, and her attractive eyebrows furrowed slightly. But she didn’t show any abnormality either, and after Luo Ziling stopped speaking, she followed the others into the living room.

Once in the living room, everyone sat down according to guest-host etiquette. Ouyang Zhenhua and Ouyang Zhengang personally made tea for each guest, and Ouyang Feifei also stepped forward to help.

While serving tea to Luo Ziling, Ouyang Feifei whispered to him, “Let’s go for a walk outside!”

Luo Ziling nodded lightly.

After chatting with the elders for a while, Luo Ziling and Ouyang Feifei stood up simultaneously, saying they would take a walk in the yard.

Ouyang Lingyun and Luo Liansheng naturally didn’t mind, letting them go play on their own.

“What do you want to talk to me about?” Ouyang Feifei asked Luo Ziling quietly as they walked into the garden. “I thought it wasn’t something important.”

“Why would I call you about something unimportant?”

“Can’t I call you if there’s nothing going on?” Ouyang Feifei raised her face slightly, looking at Luo Ziling with a hint of grievance.

“When I have important things to discuss, I can’t reach you either. Only when I’m really bored would I call you for nothing.”

“…”

Seeing Ouyang Feifei not speaking, Luo Ziling ignored her and continued walking forward.

Ouyang Feifei followed him slowly.

When they reached the pavilion built over the pond, Luo Ziling stopped and leaned against the railing, gazing at the scenery outside the pavilion.

It was already early summer, and most of the flowers in the garden had wilted, leaving a sea of green.

At this time in the South, the rainy season had begun, making the weather humid and hot. But the weather in Yanjing, while hot, wasn’t stifling.

With the heat, people naturally wore lighter clothing.

Today, Ouyang Feifei wore a long-sleeved dress that fit snugly, accentuating her graceful figure.

Standing next to her, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but muse inwardly, “Summer is indeed great!”

In midsummer, the view created by exposed clothing on beauties was as beautiful as could be.

This is the truth; if you don’t believe it, ask any man, and they would probably agree.

If someone doesn’t admit it, they’re probably just being insincere.

At least Luo Ziling admitted it, because he wasn’t insincere.

He was thinking that if the weather got even hotter, to the point where people wore as little clothing as possible, then being with women would often be a visual feast.

Noticing Luo Ziling glancing at her from time to time, Ouyang Feifei instinctively puffed out her chest.

She was already quite voluptuous, and the tight dress further enhanced the sense of presence.

Luo Ziling subconsciously moved his Adam’s apple.

Damn Wang Feiyang, who knows what drugs he gave him; the effects were still lingering.

Maybe Luo Ziling was mistaken, after a crazy night yesterday, his innate impulses were hard to suppress.

“What do you want to talk about?” Seeing Luo Ziling remaining silent, Ouyang Feifei finally couldn’t help but ask.

“You should know what they’re going to discuss today.”

Ouyang Feifei shook her head, “I don’t know what they plan to discuss.”

“You’re just pretending!” Luo Ziling got a little angry, “Isn’t it interesting?”

“You mean they want to discuss our marriage contract?” Ouyang Feifei’s expression didn’t change despite Luo Ziling’s anger. She quietly looked at him, “Hasn’t that matter been concluded? What’s there to discuss?”

“Do you think they’d consider it concluded?” Luo Ziling regained calmness.

“It seems like I told you the marriage contract is a thing of the past, don’t bring it up again!”

“Did you? How come I don’t remember!” Luo Ziling tried to recall but still couldn’t remember if Ouyang Feifei had said such a thing.

Ouyang Feifei didn’t explain, just quietly looking at the scenery in the garden.

Luo Ziling also didn’t know what to say, maintaining silence.

After a while, Ouyang Feifei took the initiative to speak, “Actually, I’ve long said it makes no difference whether there’s a marriage contract or not. Having it doesn’t constrain you, and not having it is the same.”

“You’re wrong!”

“What?”

“If I’m still burdened with a marriage contract, I can only keep my distance from you!” Luo Ziling explained seriously, “I’m sure you understand what I mean.”

Ouyang Feifei’s expression darkened, she nodded lightly and said, “I understand. If our family insists on the old marriage contract, it will only make you more resentful. That’s why I’ve stopped mentioning the marriage contract. It’s a choice for both parties; forcing with a contract won’t lead to a good outcome.”

“That’s good!” Luo Ziling sighed with relief, “You’ve voiced my thoughts!”

“Actually, you’re quite a scoundrel!”

Seeing Ouyang Feifei get a bit angry while saying this, Luo Ziling chuckled, “I never claimed to be a good person. Yes, I’m a scoundrel. If you think I’m a scoundrel, then don’t go blindly choosing me, and quickly find those non-scoundrel men to marry.”

Seeing Luo Ziling’s rascal expression as he said this, Ouyang Feifei instantly got angry and kicked at him.

Luo Ziling was quick, grabbing Ouyang Feifei’s leg, and dared to venture under her skirt for a touch.

Ouyang Feifei wore a long dress with no stockings underneath, so when Luo Ziling touched her, she almost went limp.

Her face turned red instantly, feeling ashamed and angry, she was almost ready to fight Luo Ziling.

After gaining a slight advantage, Luo Ziling released Ouyang Feifei’s leg, then sat leisurely on the side, continuing to view the garden scenery.

“I must say this garden of yours is quite well designed, did you base it on Suzhou Gardens format?” Luo Ziling completely ignored Ouyang Feifei’s anger, acting as if nothing had happened, asking with a grin, “You must have consulted a Feng Shui master, as the orientation and landscaping are flawless.”

“What’s it to you?”

“It’s none of my business, I was just casually saying.”

Ouyang Feifei really didn’t know how to vent her anger, and couldn’t help but curse, “You’re such a scoundrel, if I really were with you, I would be maddened to death by you every day!”

“It’s not too late to realize this now; quickly write it down as a reminder to avoid making mistakes together!” Luo Ziling laughed, “Don’t tell me, the bad guys get all the girls, that’s just too low!”

This comment made Ouyang Feifei’s expression change instantly, biting her lip, she looked at Luo Ziling with anger.

Seeing Luo Ziling startled, she coldly said, “Fine! Since you call me low, I must acknowledge my lowliness. Your Luo Family is noble, while we are the lowly merchants unable to climb up to the Luo Family, okay?”

With that, she no longer paid any attention to Luo Ziling and got up and left quickly.
