Luo Ziling looked at Ouyang Huihui in surprise, not expecting her to make such a threat.
This was a threat, and a very direct one.
This made Luo Ziling a bit angry, and he looked at Ouyang Huihui without blinking: "You have to know, I hate being threatened the most."
"I didn’t threaten you!" Ouyang Huihui looked innocent, "I was just expressing my thoughts."
As she spoke, she pouted, appearing very aggrieved.
Luo Ziling said nothing, just looking at her quietly.
Ouyang Huihui became more and more aggrieved.
After the two stared at each other for a while, it was Ouyang Huihui who finally gave in.
"So you are determined to keep your distance from me?" Ouyang Huihui lowered her head, "Even if I don’t make any requests of you, are you still like this?"
"So all I said to you was in vain?" Luo Ziling said very seriously, "I think, even if you don’t know about the past situation, isn’t my mom being attacked in Jiangcheng enough to explain everything? The struggle between us and the Chen Family has almost reached a life-or-death point. My mom and I have so many enemies..."
"Then do you still hope I’ll become your enemy?" Ouyang Huihui interrupted Luo Ziling, "If you treat me like this, I’m very likely to become your enemy!"
Seeing Ouyang Huihui speak so seriously, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart.
He said nothing more but stood up: "If that’s the case, then do as you please. It’s late, go back and rest!"
With that, he prepared to leave.
Seeing Luo Ziling with a stern face, Ouyang Huihui was taken aback, quickly stepping forward to hold his arm: "Don’t go, I’m just sulking with you."
Luo Ziling didn’t pull away but turned to look at Ouyang Huihui, unable to help but sigh.
He was increasingly unable to understand Ouyang Huihui; he couldn’t comprehend what was on this woman’s mind.
He knew that Ouyang Lingyun and Ouyang Feifei letting Ouyang Huihui return was clearly a wrong decision. He didn’t know why Ouyang Lingyun and Ouyang Feifei brought her back, but he knew that with Ouyang Huihui’s return, his troubles increased significantly.
He always felt innocent regarding what happened with Ouyang Huihui.
None of it was what he desired, he had not been proactive, he had been manipulated by Ouyang Huihui.
He understood Ouyang Huihui’s discontent towards him; any woman who invested so much would hope for some return.
But he couldn’t make any promises to Ouyang Huihui.
In every aspect, whether considering feelings or reality, he couldn’t choose Ouyang Huihui.
Unless, she is now carrying his child, in which case, out of responsibility, he might consider it further.
Originally he thought, as time passed and they had been separated for so many months without meeting, that Ouyang Huihui had changed her mind. If he knew she still felt this way, he definitely wouldn’t have met her.
If he couldn’t handle it, he might as well avoid it altogether!
"Luo Ziling, sit down and listen to me say a few more words, okay?" Ouyang Huihui seemed a bit anxious, pulling Luo Ziling back to his seat, pleading softly: "Sit down and talk with me properly, can you?"
"Alright, let’s talk properly then!" Luo Ziling didn’t refuse, sitting back down.
"I’ll put it this way, because of what happened in the past six months, I feel upset, I’m upset with you and even more upset with my family. I don’t want anyone to look down on me, I want to succeed, regardless of in which aspect." As she spoke, Ouyang Huihui’s expression became determined, "I want to compete with my sister, I want everyone to know that I’m not inferior to her. If she insists on taking the man I’ve been intimately involved with, then I definitely have to compete with her."
Without waiting for Luo Ziling to respond, Ouyang Huihui continued, "If she wants to be your lover, then so do I. And I want to be ahead of her. If you don’t choose her, I might give up on being your wife."
Luo Ziling’s expression changed suddenly.
"Okay, let’s not talk about these emotional matters." Seeing Luo Ziling’s displeasure, Ouyang Huihui hurriedly changed the subject, "Grandpa gave me an inheritance, and it’s substantial. I want to utilize this asset to make something of myself, to become a successful person, equal to my sister. The achievements she can make, I, Ouyang Huihui, can also achieve. But I know, with just determination alone, I can’t surpass her, as she has gained most of the resources from our Ouyang Family. So, I hope you can help me, assist me in succeeding."
Luo Ziling didn’t answer, just quietly looking at Ouyang Huihui.
Ouyang Huihui was a bit intimidated by Luo Ziling’s gaze and couldn’t help but lower her head.
Yet she stubbornly said, "If you can help me succeed, I will do my utmost to help you. Even before I find a man willing to marry, I can be your lover, without asking for status or other returns. Is that okay?"
Afraid of Luo Ziling’s rejection, she hurriedly explained, "I’m really holding back a lot, I’m very angry at how my family treats me, as if I’m nothing. I’m unwilling to let my sister boss me around. I have to prove my capability to them, to make them look at me with new eyes. You hold a special place in my heart, the person I most want help from is you, so I came to you. If you agree, I will definitely restrain myself in the future, and things like this won’t happen again. I will listen to you carefully, I’ll do my best in whatever you ask. I will also help you, assist you in your endeavors. I know, what you lack the most is someone you can trust. I will definitely become a person you can completely trust, I will help you a lot, my only request is that you also help me, treat me well."
"And if I don’t agree?" Luo Ziling calmly replied.
"Women are all petty!" Ouyang Huihui bit her lip and said, "Many women are capable of turning love into hate, I might become like that too. I’ve already set aside my pride to ask you, would you still break my heart? Aren’t you afraid I’d degrade myself and make matters worse? You are my first man, even if I marry another, I can still regard you as my only man, yet you won’t agree?"
"Don’t be so self-righteous." Luo Ziling sighed, extending his hand to Ouyang Huihui.
Ouyang Huihui didn’t understand, but still placed her hand in Luo Ziling’s.
Luo Ziling held Ouyang Huihui’s hand and earnestly said, "Don’t act arbitrarily, get settled since you just got back, don’t make your family overly anxious and cautious of you. As for achieving success, it might turn out to be easier than you imagine. People need to gradually mature, after which they view things differently. There are many people in the world, someone who really captivates your heart might emerge later, so don’t think in such absolute terms. Be rational, don’t act impulsively."
Ouyang Huihui was stunned, not entirely understanding Luo Ziling’s words.
