On the way home from Li Haiyang’s house, Luo Ziling received a call from Ling Ruonan asking him to come home for a bit.
Luo Ziling had originally planned to take Luo Yuqing to see Ling Ruonan, so he agreed immediately.
To Luo Ziling’s surprise, when he and Luo Yuqing arrived at the villa, they saw Luo Xusheng was there too.
"Dad, how come you’re back?" Luo Ziling greeted with a smile, "I was wondering why my mom was in such a rush to call me back."
Luo Yuqing also sweetly called out "Dad," but she didn’t show much affection to avoid making Ling Ruonan feel awkward.
In front of Luo Xusheng and Ling Ruonan, Luo Ziling talked about going to Li Haiyang’s house that evening.
Ling Ruonan knew that Luo Ziling and Luo Yuqing were going to Li Haiyang’s place and understood their purpose, so she was also concerned about the outcome.
After listening to what Luo Ziling and Luo Yuqing said, Ling Ruonan pondered for a moment before saying to Luo Yuqing, "In the future, you should visit Li Haiyang’s family more; they don’t have any children, and at their age, it’s unlikely they will. Having a well-behaved young person around might cheer them up. If possible, try to get Li Haiyang to be your godfather."
"That’s what I was thinking!" Luo Yuqing said excitedly upon hearing this. "I didn’t expect Mrs. Ling to think the same; I’ll be sure to visit them often, whether I have a reason or not."
Luo Ziling suggested, "Let Grandpa teach you a set of massage exercises so you can regularly give Li Haiyang massages; it’ll be beneficial for his recovery."
"Sure," Luo Yuqing agreed readily but asked puzzledly, "Why don’t you teach me?"
"I need to go out for a while," Luo Ziling smiled, "To Europe, for quite some time."
Luo Ziling hadn’t mentioned his trip to Europe to Luo Yuqing, so she was taken aback by his words.
"Why are you going to Europe?" She looked at Luo Ziling suspiciously, then at Ling Ruonan, speculating whether Ling Ruonan was sending Luo Ziling to Europe for business expansion. "Going to broaden your horizons?"
"Yes, I’ve never been abroad; it’s good to see the outside world." Luo Ziling replied casually, "To see the colorful world outside."
"When will you be back?" Luo Yuqing asked again.
"It’ll be a while." Luo Ziling didn’t want Luo Yuqing to ask more questions, so he pointed to Luo Xusheng and Ling Ruonan standing nearby, "My dad and mom’s wedding date is set for November 22nd. By then, you’ll need to contribute a bit; try to plan something to make their wedding grand and splendid."
"You guys are planning to have a wedding?" Luo Yuqing’s attention immediately shifted, surprised, she looked at Luo Xusheng and Ling Ruonan, "Haha, I must do my part; I’ll help Ziling plan your wedding and make it a lively event that stirs all of Yanjing."
Speaking of the wedding, Ling Ruonan felt a bit shy; she glanced at Luo Xusheng and then at Luo Ziling before saying to Luo Yuqing, "Don’t make too much fuss, just keep it simple."
"How could that be?" Luo Yuqing shook her head in disagreement, "Your wedding must be high standard, otherwise no one would agree."
While talking, Luo Ziling received a call from Ouyang Feifei, asking if he was free that night.
If he was free, she wanted him to come by and help her with some treatment, and also chat about some things.
"Sure, I’ll come by later!" Luo Ziling didn’t refuse.
He was about to go to Europe, and he wanted to handle things as best as possible.
Upon hearing that Luo Ziling was going to see Ouyang Feifei, Luo Yuqing couldn’t help casting a curious glance.
But in front of Luo Xusheng and Ling Ruonan, she didn’t inquire further.
After chatting for a while, Luo Xusheng left first.
When Luo Xusheng was leaving, Luo Ziling asked Luo Yuqing to keep Ling Ruonan company while he escorted Luo Xusheng out.
Originally intending to escort Luo Xusheng out, Luo Yuqing paused and understood something, deciding not to interrupt Luo Ziling and Luo Xusheng’s conversation.
Luo Xusheng asked about Luo Ziling’s preparations and reminded him to bring the Emergency Rescue System that Lin Lan had given him last time and keep it ready for use.
Luo Ziling naturally agreed.
Then, Luo Xusheng asked about matters related to Li Haiyang, and Luo Ziling answered them one by one.
He not only talked about Li Haiyang but also mentioned issues connected to senior military officers like Zhao Guosheng and Wang Rongjun.
He said he’d plan to meet Wang Rongjun again the next day to discuss certain matters.
"I’ll be leaving the country in a couple of days, so I need to sort out some things before I do." Luo Ziling explained briefly his reason for seeing Ouyang Feifei that night, "Ouyang Feifei is unwell, and there’s a lot I need to communicate with her, can’t do it during the day, so I’ll visit her at night."
Luo Xusheng hesitated for a moment but still reminded Luo Ziling, "Watch your step and don’t let things get out of hand."
"I understand!" Luo Ziling knew what Luo Xusheng meant and agreed immediately.
After Luo Xusheng left, Luo Ziling returned to the villa and chatted a bit more with Ling Ruonan and Luo Yuqing before leaving.
Luo Yuqing left with him.
As they walked out of the villa, Luo Yuqing asked Luo Ziling with a curious expression if he had an inappropriate relationship with Ouyang Feifei.
"If I had an inappropriate relationship with her, I wouldn’t tell you about meeting her; I’d sneak out."
"Hmph, who would believe that!" Luo Yuqing retorted with an expression of disdain, "Ouyang Feifei is such a beautiful woman; if you’re not interested in her, I won’t believe it even if you kill me."
"Then I’ll have to kill you!" Luo Ziling made a playful move.
Luo Yuqing stepped back, then after playfully scolding Luo Ziling, she suddenly thought about his trip to Europe and couldn’t help but inquire again.
"Don’t ask too much; there’s business to do in Europe." Luo Ziling didn’t want to talk about it with her.
Luo Yuqing then realized that Luo Ziling’s journey to Europe wasn’t just a casual trip; there must be something important.
"Don’t ask; some things are not for you to ask!" Luo Ziling warned again.
Luo Yuqing seemed to have understood something and decided not to press the issue: "Alright, I won’t ask!"
They parted ways at the entrance of the villa; Luo Ziling went with Shi Yidan to visit Ouyang Feifei, while Luo Yuqing returned to school.
To Luo Ziling’s surprise, when he arrived at Ouyang Feifei’s villa, Ouyang Huihui was there too.
Seeing Ouyang Feifei and Ouyang Huihui chatting in the living room, Luo Ziling paused.
"Haha, you’re both here!" Luo Ziling didn’t feel awkward; he confidently walked in and sat down, "It’s rare to see you two sisters together."
"Huihui just arrived; I didn’t know she’d come over." Ouyang Feifei seemed a bit embarrassed.
Upon hearing Ouyang Feifei’s words, Ouyang Huihui became alert, "You haven’t already gotten involved, have you? Did you plan to have a secret meeting tonight?"
