Luo Ziling didn’t say anything more, just smiled and continued to walk forward.
Ye Qinqing, being young and not that mature, thought Luo Ziling was doubting her loyalty, which made her anxious.
After thinking it over seriously, she explained quietly, "I am very grateful to Mr. Luo for giving me this opportunity. Without the opportunity given by Mr. Luo, I wouldn’t have my current position. Please rest assured, I will certainly do my work with dedication, and always remain loyal to Mr. Ling and Mr. Luo, without a second thought."
Ye Qinqing’s eager expression made Luo Ziling feel a bit smug.
But he didn’t show any reaction, just smiled slightly.
While Luo Ziling was still inspecting the company, he received a call from Ling Ruonan saying she was planning to go to Ling Mingrui’s villa.
When getting in the car, Ling Ruonan asked Luo Ziling what he had been doing earlier.
Luo Ziling honestly confessed that he went to inspect the company and visited Jin Yan.
Ling Ruonan found it slightly odd that Luo Ziling specifically went to see Jin Yan.
Luo Ziling explained his purpose, saying he felt Jin Yan was still usable, even if not to deal with Ling Zhengping.
"Jin Yan does indeed have good abilities and also a sense of regret; it depends on her future performance!" Ling Ruonan sighed and then said resolutely, "However, no matter how well she performs, she can’t be allowed to stay by your side anymore. Many confidential matters can’t be let her contact."
"Understood!"
Arriving at Ling Mingrui’s villa, Ling Mingrui hadn’t returned yet.
Since Ling Ruonan called Xie Enhua at noon, Xie Enhua prepared by buying some dishes that Ling Ruonan and Luo Ziling like. When Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan arrived, she was preparing the evening meal with the cook.
Seeing Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan come in, she immediately dropped what she was doing and came over to greet them.
"Nannan, are you very busy?" After looking at Ling Ruonan twice, Xie Enhua asked in a low voice, "You look exhausted; you must not have rested well!"
"Mom, it’s no problem, just didn’t have a nap today!" Motherly concern made Ling Ruonan feel warm inside, and she smiled at Xie Enhua, saying, "With Ling’er around, you don’t have to worry about my health. I’ll go to bed early tonight, and I’ll be refreshed for tomorrow. As for you, be sure to take care of yourself!"
Then she immediately instructed Luo Ziling to check Xie Enhua’s health to see if there was anything unusual.
Luo Ziling naturally agreed.
Xie Enhua also didn’t refuse, allowing Luo Ziling to help her check her health condition.
The results of the checkup were naturally pleasing to everyone.
Recently, both Ling Mingrui and Xie Enhua have been in excellent health, without even minor ailments.
Of course, this was thanks to Luo Ziling.
With Luo Ziling as their health-care doctor, their health condition could only get better and better.
Previously, although they had good medical insurance and regular check-ups, minor ailments occurred occasionally.
On this front, Xie Enhua was quite grateful to Luo Ziling.
Among Xie Enhua’s grandchildren, there are only Ling Haining and Luo Ziling.
The Ling Family has quite a few grandchildren, but those don’t share Xie Enhua’s bloodline, so naturally, the relationship is somewhat distant.
In the past, Xie Enhua really liked Ling Haining due to cross-generational affection.
Plus, Luo Ziling wasn’t beside Ling Ruonan, making Ling Haining very favored by Xie Enhua.
But Ling Haining was not willing to visit Xie Enhua often. He didn’t like Xie Enhua’s nagging, and was also afraid of Ling Mingrui; thus, seldom came to visit Xie Enhua alone.
Moreover, some bad habits of Ling Haining increasingly disappointed Xie Enhua.
In contrast, Luo Ziling was far superior to Ling Haining in various aspects. He was also very filial. Furthermore, because of guilt toward Ling Ruonan and Luo Ziling’s outstanding qualities, once Luo Ziling arrived in Yanjing, he quickly replaced Ling Haining’s place in Xie Enhua’s heart.
If it’s a few days without seeing Luo Ziling, Xie Enhua would mention it repeatedly, even proactively call Ling Ruonan or Luo Ziling, inviting them over for dinner.
Luo Ziling genuinely felt Xie Enhua’s affection for him, and he was equally grateful for his grandmother’s love, hence exhibited increasingly obedient behavior. The three generations enjoying small talk together was indeed a joyful affair.
When Ling Mingrui came back, what he saw was the three generations sitting on the sofa, chatting happily.
"Go ahead and chat; I’ll go check in the kitchen!" Seeing Ling Mingrui return, Xie Enhua knowledgeably stood up, leaving the space for the three of them.
"Let’s talk in the study!" Ling Mingrui indicated to Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan to follow him into the study.
Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan obediently followed Ling Mingrui into the study.
"Chen Ruchang’s condition has sharply deteriorated!" As soon as they entered the study, Ling Mingrui began discussing matters, "Last night, he showed signs of vomiting blood. Fortunately, the rescue was timely, preventing a major incident. This morning, a few of us went over to visit him."
At this point, Ling Mingrui paused and then glanced at Luo Ziling with a complex expression.
Luo Ziling ignored Ling Mingrui’s gaze and didn’t interrupt, just quietly listened.
"According to the attending physician’s analysis, Chen Ruchang’s condition is now completely irreversible. Their treatment plan now is merely to extend the patient’s time." Listening to Ling Mingrui’s explanation, Luo Ziling got a clearer understanding of Chen Ruchang’s situation.
The tumor cells within Chen Ruchang’s body have widely metastasized; there are metastasis foci in many places.
If it were an ordinary person, without many exceptional treatment methods regardless of cost, Chen Ruchang would already be dead.
When ascites appeared, Chen Ruchang began using high-purity serum albumin, blood platelet, fibrinogen infusion, and immunoglobulin supplementation.
Such methods can increase the amount of protein within Chen Ruchang’s body, preventing various functions from being affected by a drop in protein level.
Blood platelet and fibrinogen infusions also try to prevent possible hemorrhage tendencies.
The decision-makers at the 401 Hospital initially wanted to seek help from Luo Ziling and Luo Liansheng but were stopped.
It was people from the military department responsible for health affairs who stopped them from doing so.
As to who prompted them to prevent this, Ling Mingrui didn’t mention.
After discussing Chen Ruchang’s condition, Ling Mingrui asked Luo Ziling: "In your view, how long can someone in his situation at most hold on?"
"Could die at any time!" Luo Ziling replied calmly: "Even with the most optimistic estimation, he won’t last past this month."
"New year brings new change, also good!" Ling Mingrui chuckled softly.
His laughter sent shivers down Luo Ziling’s spine.
