What Luo Ziling was referring to when he said it’s time to act was clear to everyone present.
They didn’t ask much, just nodded lightly.
"Keep a close watch on Chen Yihe and Chen Yiping. These two are not honest; they want to use us and deceive us at the same time. We must teach them a good lesson and make them contribute more to us," Luo Ziling said, showing a contemptuous smile. "Why are all the Chen Family members so despicable?"
Today, Chen Yihe and Chen Yiping didn’t attend the wedding banquet, as Ling Ruonan didn’t invite them.
The reason for this was, of course, to avoid trouble.
Ling Ruonan still wants to use Chen Yihe and Chen Yiping, and to use them, they must not attract attention.
If they were invited to the wedding, undoubtedly many people would notice.
The guests Luo Ziling invited were not many; most guests were decided by Ling Ruonan.
A few guests Luo Ziling wanted to invite, such as Li Jinhui, Wu Mingyun, Hu Wenjun, Wang Rongshan, Lou Zhiyi, were not invited by Ling Ruonan. The reason for not inviting them was simple; they had relatively public stakes, and to avoid leaving room for criticism, they were not invited.
Luo Ziling is studying and teaching at Yan University; Li Jinhui, Wu Mingyun, Hu Wenjun, Wang Rongshan are the leaders of the university and health department, and Lou Zhiyi is the hospital director, so Ling Ruonan did not plan to invite them.
However, if they really wanted to attend the wedding banquet, they would definitely be let in.
Ling Ruonan did not invite Xu Chen, Ding Zhongming, Wu Jiandong, and Cao Jianhui’s parents, but they all came.
Chen Yihe and Chen Yiping certainly wouldn’t attend Ling Ruonan’s wedding; even if Ling Ruonan sent them invitations, they might not come.
Nobody responded to Luo Ziling’s remarks; they didn’t know how to respond.
Luo Ziling didn’t mind, and continued, "We must be worse than them, let them know, when we’re bad, there are no limits. We also need to let them know, they’re not qualified to play such low-level tricks with us."
The others all nodded.
After finishing the hotpot, it was already two o’clock in the morning.
Luo Ziling told them all to rest and sleep in late the next day.
But Wuyue did not go to sleep immediately; she went to find Luo Ziling after returning to the hotel.
"Young Master, how should we handle Jin Yan?" she brought up the matter of Jin Yan. "We have quite detailed evidence; we can confront her now!"
"I’ll handle it personally; wait for a couple of days." After thinking for a moment, Luo Ziling instructed Wuyue again, "Keep monitoring her the next couple of days, inform me of any situation! If we encounter something special, like she does something bad, we can then confront her, which might lead to unexpected results."
"Alright!" Wuyue agreed.
When Luo Ziling returned to his room and slept, it was almost three o’clock.
Originally, he wanted to run off and sleep with Yang Qingyin, but he was afraid of waking her, so he booked another room instead.
The next day, Luo Ziling was woken up by a call from Ling Ruonan.
Seeing the time was already nearly nine o’clock, he quickly jumped out of bed.
After quickly washing up, Luo Ziling went to Ling Ruonan’s room.
Ling Ruonan had already gotten up and was ready to return home.
Yang Qingyin, Lin Lan, and Wuyue were all there; Yang Qingyin wore the same clothes as yesterday, as she often wore Hanfu as everyday attire.
They had all finished breakfast except for Luo Ziling.
Luo Ziling didn’t mind; he ate the pastries on the table as breakfast in front of them, wolfing them down.
Earlier, Ling Ruonan had already talked about some things with Yang Qingyin, Wuyue, and Lin Lan. Seeing Luo Ziling come over, she let them all go about their own business.
Yang Qingyin said she wants to visit her grandfather, to chat with him for a while.
Ling Ruonan expressed her gratitude to Yang Qingyin and let her take a pile of gifts back.
Yang Qingyin did not refuse.
Luo Ziling escorted her out.
When they were going downstairs, Luo Ziling asked, "Your dad and grandpa must’ve been shocked last night. Why don’t you check your grandpa’s opinion, see how he felt about the wedding yesterday? If possible, try to probe your dad’s opinion too. I’m afraid they might lose their senses after being shocked."
Yang Qingyin rolled her eyes at Luo Ziling, and said with slight annoyance, "The things you talked about last night mostly targeted the Yang Family. They definitely hold grudges; whether they’ve let it go after one night, I don’t know. I’m visiting my grandpa to see how he’s doing today and if you people have made him mad, but as for probing like you want, I won’t help."
"Dressed so beautifully today, your mood must be great!" Luo Ziling chuckled and pinched Yang Qingyin’s cheek, "I’ll come find you tonight to make up for it!"
"I don’t want your compensation!" Yang Qingyin rolled her eyes at Luo Ziling again, "I want a good night’s sleep tonight and to recharge my energy, so don’t disturb me."
Luo Ziling chuckled and said no more.
After seeing Yang Qingyin into her car, when Luo Ziling returned to Ling Ruonan’s room, Wuyue and Lin Lan weren’t there either.
They had things to attend to, but Luo Ziling didn’t mind.
Ling Ruonan asked Luo Ziling to accompany her back home, and Luo Ziling naturally agreed.
While Luo Ziling was escorting Yang Qingyin downstairs, Wuyue went to prepare Ling Ruonan’s departure.
Although nothing happened last night, it doesn’t mean today will be peaceful. Wuyue dared not take any chances.
Wuyue’s worries were indeed unnecessary, as they reached Ling Mingrui’s estate safely without incident.
Ling Mingrui’s estate was full of festive atmosphere.
Before yesterday’s wedding, Ling Ruonan had been staying there until Luo Xusheng arrived with the wedding party to pick her up, and she left with Luo Xusheng. Being Ling Ruonan’s maternal home, Ling Mingrui’s estate was naturally decorated festively.
When Ling Ruonan and Luo Xusheng returned today, Ling Mingrui’s estate was still filled with celebratory vibes.
Not only were the big red lanterns still hung, but many of the Ling Family members were present.
It’s etiquette; since Ling Jinhua openly supported Ling Ruonan, Ling Mingrui shared the same attitude, so the main figures of the Ling Family dared not neglect Ling Ruonan in such matters.
Everything was lively, and even though many were superficial, the atmosphere appeared harmonious, even Ling Zhengping was quite good to Ling Ruonan.
Ling Zhengping also, as the elder brother-in-law, instructed Luo Xusheng to take care of Ling Ruonan, not to let her suffer anymore.
Luo Xusheng wasn’t talkative, but he seriously replied to Ling Zhengping’s instructions, "Thank you for the reminder; I will do my best. As Ling Ruonan’s husband, as long as I’m alive, I’ll protect her and Luo Ziling forever, not letting them be bullied again."
As he said this, Luo Xusheng’s eyes were slightly fierce.
