CapĂtulo 2183: Chapter 2183: A Slap and a Date (Jujube)
On the way home, no one said much.
Luo Ziling didnât want to say anything either; he didnât know what to say.
Amidst the tense atmosphere in the car, Luo Ziling received a call from Luo Yuqing.
âZiling, where are you? Why didnât you reply to any of my messages?â Luo Yuqingâs voice carried a hint of complaint.
âI went to the Ouyang Family for dinner with grandpa, mom, and dad. I havenât looked at my phone, so I didnât notice anyoneâs messages,â explained Luo Ziling, then asked Luo Yuqing, âWhatâs up? Do you need me for something?â
âOh?!â Luo Yuqingâs tone immediately softened upon hearing Luo Ziling was with his family. âAre you back home?â
âJust on our way back. If itâs urgent, why donât you come over and talk?â
âOkay, Iâll come over. See you in a bit!â
Initially, Luo Xusheng wasnât planning to go with Luo Ziling and the others to Ling Ruonanâs villa; he intended to return to the military camp. But upon hearing that Luo Yuqing was coming over, he decided to go to the villa first and drive back later.
When they arrived at the villa, Luo Yuqing was already waiting there.
As the car stopped, she hurried up to greet them.
Helping Luo Liansheng out of the car, she sweetly buttered him up.
Luo Yuqingâs eagerness to please obviously delighted Luo Liansheng.
Seeing Luo Yuqing, Luo Xusheng was quite happy as well.
After everyone entered the living room, Luo Ziling asked Luo Yuqing what was so urgent that she needed to see him.
âWang Feiyang texted me tonight saying she no longer wants to compete for the student council president position.â Luo Yuqing asked Luo Ziling suspiciously, âDo you think thereâs more to it? She came back full of ambition, intent on running for the student council president.â
âMaybe she doesnât care about the student council president position anymore!â Luo Ziling guessed Wang Feiyangâs motive but didnât disclose it to Luo Yuqing, âRunning for student council president was just her way to become popular on campus and leverage that notoriety for other things. Now that sheâs famous, she doesnât need the position to gain popularity.â
âThatâs possible!â Luo Yuqing accepted Luo Zilingâs analysis and asked again, âShe said she wants to join the new lab management; what do you think?â
Luo Yuqing asked Luo Ziling without avoiding anyone else.
Seeing Luo Liansheng, Ling Ruonan, and Luo Xusheng all looking at him, Luo Ziling glared at Luo Yuqing, âSheâs capable, well-connected, and can help us achieve many things. If she wants to join, let her. The benefits definitely outweigh the drawbacks.â
âAlright!â Luo Yuqing didnât object in the end.
In front of Ling Ruonan, she didnât dare throw a tantrum.
Actually, she was quite resistant to Wang Feiyang.
Two tigers canât share one mountain, a real-life philosophy.
When two strong women gather, the consequences are worse than two competent men being together.
People often think women are less forgiving than menâat least many believe that.
âDid you rush over just to ask about this minor issue?â Seeing Luo Yuqing ask nothing else, Luo Ziling was puzzled.
âIsnât this a big deal?â Luo Yuqing shot Luo Ziling a look, âI suspect she has ulterior motives. That woman is scary!â
âIndeed scary, but Iâll find a way to handle her!â Luo Ziling decided to visit Wang Feiyang later to see how she was doing.
Luo Yuqing didnât say anything more to Luo Ziling and went to chat with Luo Liansheng and Luo Xusheng.
After chatting for about half an hour, Luo Xusheng prepared to return to the military camp.
Luo Yuqing also got up to leave, saying she needed to return to school.
âMom, I need to go to school for something too. Let me take Yuqing back.â
Luo Zilingâs words surprised both Ling Ruonan and Luo Yuqing, but neither said anything, just nodded.
âIâm leaving too; Iâll go back to school with you all.â Luo Liansheng stood up, instructing Luo Xusheng, âWeâll leave first; you can chat with your wife a bit longer!â
Luo Xusheng thought for a moment and agreed.
Thus, Luo Ziling, Luo Liansheng, and Luo Yuqing shared a car back to school.
Wuyue had returned and was driving the three of them to school.
Luo Liansheng went off to chat and brag with his old buddies, while Luo Yuqing initially planned to have Luo Ziling take her out for a late-night snack, but Luo Ziling declined, citing other matters. In the end, Luo Yuqing resignedly returned to her dormitory.
After Luo Yuqing went back to her dorm, Luo Ziling asked Wuyue, âDid you go to see Wang Feiyang?â
âYes!â Wuyue didnât deny it, âI went to see her!â
âWhat did you talk about?â Luo Ziling was a bit curious.
âJust asked her some things!â Wuyue answered calmly.
âIâll go over and take a look in a bit!â
âIâll go with you!â Wuyue insisted, âI donât feel comfortable letting you go alone!â
âAlright!â Seeing Wuyueâs firm expression, Luo Ziling gave a wry smile and finally didnât refuse.
So, Wuyue drove Luo Ziling over.
At the school gate, Luo Ziling instructed Wuyue to stop the car; he went to buy some late-night snacks.
Wuyue looked a bit puzzled, but didnât resist Luo Zilingâs decision.
At his frequently visited snack shop, Luo Ziling bought a serving of soup dumplings and a bowl of wontons, getting them packed before heading with Wuyue to Wang Feiyangâs place.
When they arrived, Luo Ziling asked Wuyue to ring the doorbell.
After a long time of ringing, the door finally opened.
When Wang Feiyang appeared, looking utterly dejected, Luo Ziling almost didnât recognize her.
Seeing Luo Ziling and Wuyue together, Wang Feiyang paused, then stepped back, letting them in.
âYou havenât had dinner, right? I brought you some late-night snacks.â Luo Ziling lifted the bag of soup dumplings and wontons, smiling at Wang Feiyang, âBought from that wildly popular snack shop at the school gate, tastes really good!â
âI donât want to eat; I feel miserable all over!â Wang Feiyang hugged herself, looking at Luo Ziling with despair, âI feel like dying right now!â
The faint itchiness made her uncomfortable all over.
Lying down only intensified that itchy feeling.
If you get moving, the itch seems to go away.
Wang Feiyang couldnât rest in bed, let alone sleep, so she ran on the treadmill for a long time.
Her stomach was empty, yet she had no desire to eat, not even for food.
It could be said that today she lived worse than death.
Looking at Wang Feiyangâs almost beggar-like appearance, Luo Ziling actually felt a bit of schadenfreude.
However, he knew there should be a balance to things. After a slap, give a date as compensation, otherwise, it wouldnât be effective.
Bringing Wang Feiyang late-night snacks was that âdate.â
Of course, coming here late at night, he intended to give another âdateâ as well.
