Chapter 1750: Chapter 1750: Is He Here for Revenge?
(Chapter 30 Update)
While they were talking, Yang Qingyin arrived.
The grandfather and grandson immediately stopped talking.
“Senior, my mom and sister are making a night meal, so you’re in for a treat,” Luo Ziling joked with Yang Qingyin as he approached, “You’ve lost a lot of weight, anyway. Eat some night meal to make up for the weight lost.”
Yang Yuanshan’s illness and Yang Qingye’s injury worried Yang Qingyin a lot. Coupled with the tiring trip to Seoul and worrying about Luo Ziling these past few days, Yang Qingyin lost several pounds and her chin looked a bit pointy.
Yang Qingyin gave Luo Ziling a glance but ignored him, first greeting Luo Liansheng.
After exchanging a few warm words with Luo Liansheng, she then asked Luo Ziling about the matter.
“No problem, I haven’t lost any flesh, and I’ve gained a lot. I not only boarded a giant ship of tens of thousands of tons, but also enjoyed the special treatment of being picked up by a warship,” Luo Ziling happily told Yang Qingyin as he shared some of his experiences, “It was the first time I had close contact with navy sailors. I saw shipborne missiles, helicopters, and even provided medical services to the sailor soldiers, making quite a few friends.”
“You’re not serious at all,” Yang Qingyin rolled her eyes and then said, full of jealousy, “You were willing to take such a big risk to save a woman.”
“To save a beauty, of course, I’m willing to go through fire and water,” Luo Ziling remained unserious, jokingly telling Yang Qingyin even with his grandfather sitting nearby, “If one day you encounter trouble, I’ll ride the Colorful Auspicious Clouds to save you.”
Luo Ziling’s words reminded Yang Qingyin of the time when she’d been in trouble and Luo Ziling came to her rescue.
That time, Luo Ziling was injured, hit by a bullet she unintentionally fired.
Thinking about this, Yang Qingyin felt very guilty.
Thus, she no longer held Luo Ziling’s trip to Japan to rescue Lin Lan against him.
“As long as you came back safely,” she smiled gently, then said to Luo Liansheng and Luo Ziling, “Grandpa, Ziling, I’m going to the kitchen to greet Mrs. Ling.”
Just as Yang Qingyin was about to enter the kitchen, the kitchen door opened.
Ling Ruonan and Luo Yuqing each came out carrying a platter, and Yang Qingyin quickly stepped forward to greet and ask if they needed help.
“Qingyin’s here too,” Ling Ruonan was slightly surprised but still greeted with a smile, “We just made a pot of noodles, Ziling hasn’t had dinner yet, join him for some.”
“Thank you, Mrs. Ling,” seeing Ling Ruonan and Luo Yuqing each carrying a plate of noodles without any utensils, Yang Qingyin didn’t wait for Ling Ruonan’s instructions and went into the kitchen to fetch some bowls and chopsticks.
With just Luo Yuqing there and Ouyang Feifei absent, Yang Qingyin felt relieved.
After placing the large bowl of noodles down, Luo Yuqing dashed into the kitchen to help Yang Qingyin with the bowls and chopsticks.
Seizing the chance while the two of them were alone, Luo Yuqing whispered to Yang Qingyin, “Ouyang Feifei likely won’t be coming today.”
Yang Qingyin chuckled and nonchalantly said, “If she knew Ziling returned safely, she should come to check on him.”
“Looks like something unpleasant happened between her and Ziling in Seoul,” Luo Yuqing continued to speak in a low voice to Yang Qingyin, “I don’t know the specifics, but Ziling seems to have quite a prejudice against Ouyang Feifei.”
“What happened?” Yang Qingyin furrowed her brows, “Weren’t we together in Seoul the whole time? How did I not know?”
“Why don’t you ask Ziling yourself!” Luo Yuqing said with a playful expression.
“I won’t ask,” Yang Qingyin picked up the bowls and chopsticks for a few people and led the way out of the kitchen.
“Ziling, it’s time for a night meal,” Luo Yuqing followed Yang Qingyin out, calling to Luo Ziling and Luo Liansheng, “Grandpa, do you want to eat some? Mrs. Ling made the noodles, they’re really delicious. I want to eat some, even if it means gaining weight, it’s worth it.”
“I’ll join you for a bit,” Luo Liansheng didn’t refuse either.
So, the group sat down together at the dining table and began to eat the noodles cooked by Ling Ruonan.
Ling Ruonan not only cooked noodles but also fried a few eggs and stir-fried a couple of dishes.
Luo Ziling was indeed hungry and began devouring the food ravenously.
While they were eating the night meal and chatting, Ling Ruonan’s phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, Ling Ruonan quickly put down her chopsticks and stepped aside to answer the call.
After a short while, she returned, her expression slightly peculiar.
“Mom, what’s wrong?” Luo Ziling found it strange.
“Your dad is coming to Yanjing in a few days,” Ling Ruonan hesitated but then told everyone present about the call, “The exact day is not decided yet.”
“Oh?!” Luo Ziling was a bit surprised but immediately understood the significance of Luo Xusheng’s visit to Yanjing.
His father knew the situation in Yanjing was complicated, so he wanted to show up and establish a presence.
Or maybe to test the waters and see how those who don’t want him back would react to his reappearance.
Luo Yuqing was instantly thrilled but managed not to show it.
After all, her position was still slightly awkward.
Although, through her efforts and persistence, she finally got along well with Ling Ruonan, and things weren’t as awkward when they interacted, facing both Luo Xusheng and Ling Ruonan simultaneously still put her in a tricky spot.
“It’s good for him to come and take a look,” Luo Liansheng chuckled, “He’s your man and Ling’er’s father, he should take responsibility.”
“Grandpa, when Dad comes, you should have a good talk with him, let him understand that if he works hard, my mom and I won’t get bullied.”
Unexpectedly, Luo Ziling would say such a thing, Ling Ruonan glared at him, but Luo Ziling didn’t care, just giggled.
After the night meal, both Yang Qingyin and Luo Yuqing said their goodbyes and prepared to return to school to sleep.
Before leaving, Yang Qingyin asked Luo Ziling if he would return to school the next day.
“The school leaders and fellow students all hope you can go back quickly and show your face because this time you were quite in the limelight,” after Yang Qingyin asked, Luo Yuqing softly added, “Our student union also plans to organize a special report meeting. We just don’t know if you’d honor us with your presence. If you’re willing to attend the meeting, we’ll organize it quickly.”
“Looks like you want me to join. I’ll always give you face, so go ahead and organize it,” Luo Ziling agreed with a smile to Luo Yuqing, then said to Yang Qingyin, “Senior, I should be going to school tomorrow. Anyway, buy me lunch then. Cafeteria meal, as a treat for my efforts, isn’t too much to ask, right?”
“That’s no problem,” Yang Qingyin readily agreed, “If you want a big meal, I’ll treat you too.”
Luo Ziling smiled, “Let’s talk about having a big meal in a few days, I think there will be a lot happening in these few days. In the evening I might not be free, and going out for a big lunch feels a bit rushed.”
“Then let’s discuss it in a few days,” Yang Qingyin said this and pulled Luo Ziling aside to quietly ask, “Is your father coming to Yanjing to settle some scores?”
“It’s possible!”
Upon hearing Luo Ziling’s words, Yang Qingyin’s expression changed dramatically.
