"It’s not that serious!" Luo Ziling frowned and explained: "How about this, if your dad has some free time and I don’t have anything special going on, I’ll come over for dinner, does that work? But I definitely can’t tomorrow; I’ve already promised my mom that I’ll go with her to visit my Great Grandfather."
"Okay, then I’ll ask you again the day after tomorrow!" Wang Feiyang stepped back, no longer insisting on anything.
Luo Ziling’s willingness to concede left her somewhat satisfied.
Luo Ziling didn’t say much more to Wang Feiyang, citing being busy, he left in a hurry.
Wang Feiyang originally wanted to ask Luo Ziling when he might have time to join her in the evening.
But he ran off before she could say anything, leaving Wang Feiyang feeling a bit annoyed.
While having a late-night snack, Luo Ziling received a message from Yang Qingyin.
Yang Qingyin said she’s staying home tonight and won’t be coming back.
Tomorrow noon, she would come to find Luo Ziling to talk in person.
Upon seeing this message, Luo Ziling instantly felt dejected, but he didn’t say much, instead, he sent a reply for her to rest early.
As coincidence would have it, just as Yang Qingyin sent the message, Lin Lan called.
Lin Lan asked where Luo Ziling was right now and if he had time to meet her, she had something to discuss.
"Having a late-night snack, alone!" Luo Ziling said somewhat gloomily: "If you’re interested, come join me for some barbecue, my treat!"
Lin Lan didn’t refuse, and after getting Luo Ziling’s address, she hung up the phone.
About twenty minutes later, Lin Lan appeared in front of Luo Ziling, dressed casually.
The weather in Yanjing in November is already a bit chilly, but Lin Lan was only wearing a shirt and jeans, looking youthful and casual.
"Are you on vacation?" After Lin Lan sat down, Luo Ziling smiled and asked her, "No one objects to you coming out so late at night?"
"I’m on vacation!" Lin Lan picked up a skewer of barbecued meat placed in front of her and began eating without hesitation, saying: "I’ve returned to hand over the task, written the post-war summary, and I don’t have anything else to do. The other injured ones, and I, all have a few months of vacation. I think my Dragon Rise journey should have ended as I return from Europe!"
Lin Lan said this very calmly as if she were talking about something insignificant, yet Luo Ziling was a little shocked after hearing it.
Lin Lan appeared determined to leave Dragon Rise, otherwise, she wouldn’t have said that.
However, he didn’t ask about this matter but instead inquired about Lin Lan’s injuries.
Originally, he planned to find some time either tomorrow or the day after to help Lin Lan, Shanque, and Falcon with their recovery.
During the treatment period in Europe, their injuries had almost fully healed.
They are in good physical condition, and Luo Ziling’s treatments were very effective, allowing a quick recovery.
Especially Lin Lan, whose recovery was faster than the other two.
In reality, further treatment wasn’t necessary; as long as they continued to recuperate properly, they shouldn’t have any issues.
But Luo Ziling still wanted to provide them with one or several more treatments to aid their recovery speed and quality.
Especially Lin Lan, Luo Ziling was worried that her frequent injuries might affect her overall condition; he wanted her to recover better.
"I’ll give you another treatment later!" Luo Ziling voiced his opinion directly, "Anyway, I’m free tonight!"
"Where to go?" Lin Lan didn’t seem surprised by Luo Ziling’s offer, "Find a hotel?"
"Whatever you think is best. You’re not planning on returning to the base tonight, are you?"
"I’m not going back to the base, I’ve been staying at a sanatorium recently. I don’t have any other place to stay, and if I don’t stay at a hotel, it’ll have to be the sanatorium."
Luo Ziling thought for a moment, then softly suggested: "How about renting a place for you? Or buying one, where would you like to live?"
"I don’t want to buy anything for the time being, I’d rather rent!" Lin Lan showed no reluctance, "I’ll figure this out myself, you don’t need to worry about it, otherwise, what would that mean? Tomorrow or the day after, I’ll find time to meet your mom, have a good chat with her, and find out what she thinks. This way, I can make better decisions."
"After you leave Dragon Rise, stay with my mom for a while; working beside her is better than working with me. When there’s an opportunity, you can join me." Luo Ziling smiled, not minding Lin Lan’s little whims, "All our security personnel is handed over to Wuyue. You should be involved in this matter in the future."
"I’m not competing with Wuyue!" Lin Lan shook her head, "Whatever your mom asks me to do, I’ll do!"
Luo Ziling nodded, without insisting on anything.
"Did you have a dispute with Yang Qingye today?" Lin Lan changed the subject.
"Even you know about it?" Luo Ziling appeared very surprised.
"I found out coincidentally!" Lin Lan didn’t explain further. She looked at Luo Ziling somewhat playfully and calmly asked: "If you intend to marry Yang Qingyin, why break ties with Yang Qingye?"
"Show enthusiasm where necessary, but when it’s time to put on a stern face, you mustn’t keep smiling along, or else life becomes unlivable," Luo Ziling chuckled, "Yang Qingye doesn’t have much capability, at least that’s how he’s been behaving recently. If we indulge his tantrums, he’ll just push further."
Upon reaching this point, Luo Ziling sighed: "Why should they have their way, and I don’t? I, from now on, will do whatever I want, making others accommodate me. I actually started doing this initially, and it yielded great results. Like dealing with Fang Dongxun, hitting a few descendants of the Ling Family at my Great Grandfather’s birthday. My over-the-top actions didn’t harm me but rather made others fearful; isn’t that great?"
Lin Lan lightly nodded after hearing this, expressing agreement with Luo Ziling’s words.
Both had good appetites, finishing all the food Luo Ziling ordered.
After eating all the barbecue dishes Luo Ziling ordered, Lin Lan stood up: "Come on, let’s find a hotel room; I’m not going back tonight, stay with me!"
"Sigh!" Luo Ziling sighed, without saying a word.
What could he say?
While heading out together, Lin Lan whispered to Luo Ziling: "Get two people to monitor Jin Yan, I think there’s a problem with her!"
"What?" Luo Ziling failed to react immediately.
"I mean your mom’s assistant, Jin Yan, might have a problem!" Lin Lan stated seriously: "Of course, it’s just a possibility; I’m not jumping to conclusions!"
Lin Lan’s words stirred strong emotions in Luo Ziling’s heart.
"Are you suggesting that Jin Yan might have been bought or possibly planted by our enemies?"
