Chapter 1116 - Chapter 1116 Chapter 1116 Can we stop quibbling please

Chapter 1116: Chapter 1116: Can we stop quibbling, please? Chapter 1116: Chapter 1116: Can we stop quibbling, please? Luo Ziling followed Ling Ruonan back to the study, and Luo Yuqing, who was originally seated, immediately stood up.

“Never mind, you guys go ahead, I won’t ask anything more,” Ling Ruonan said as if suddenly losing interest, “Just get things cleared up as soon as possible then.”

Upon hearing this, Luo Yuqing instantly felt relieved, but she didn’t take her leave right away. Instead, she bravely spoke up: “Mrs. Ling, if I am Ziling’s sister, I will treat him as a brother, we’ll help and encourage each other. If not, we are still good friends and can still help each other out in life. Rest assured, I won’t make things difficult for Ziling, nor will I make things difficult for you.”

Luo Ziling added his two cents: “Mom, if Yuqing is my sister, then she can also be considered your daughter, right?”

After saying this, he immediately felt it was inappropriate and quickly shut his mouth.

Ling Ruonan was indeed a little angry and glared at Luo Ziling, but said nothing.

Luo Ziling chuckled and didn’t mind.

“Yuqing, I’ll have someone take you back to school, I’m going to sleep at my mom’s place tonight,” Luo Ziling said, winking at Luo Yuqing.

Luo Yuqing got the hint and immediately agreed.

Luo Ziling accompanied her downstairs.

After descending the stairs, Luo Yuqing finally relaxed.

“I was scared to death,” she said, still looking frightened as she patted her chest while walking out of the house.

“You’re too nervous, I told you nothing would happen,” Luo Ziling said as he reached out and pinched Luo Yuqing’s cheek, smiling: “I’ll have someone send you back and we can talk more about everything tomorrow, okay?”

“Okay!” Luo Yuqing agreed readily, not bothered by Luo Ziling’s teasing.

Luo Ziling had Yang Xiaodong take Luo Yuqing home.

After Luo Yuqing got into Yang Xiaodong’s car, he immediately returned to the house, ready to go upstairs.

Wuyue emerged and stood in front of Luo Ziling.

“Young Master, there are some things I’d like to report to you. After you’ve finished talking with the young lady, remember to wait for me.”

Seeing Wuyue say this somewhat embarrassingly, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but want to laugh.

“No problem, you can come to my room to talk,” Luo Ziling said, patting Wuyue’s face before quickly darting away.

“Hehe, Sister Wuyue, you’ve become more shy than before,” Luo Ziling said and, without waiting for the frustrated Wuyue to react, he escaped upstairs.

Teasing a beautiful woman really felt quite good!

Touching her face where Luo Ziling had caressed, Wuyue was both anxious and annoyed but with no solution at hand.

She nervously glanced upstairs and then outside, not seeing anyone moving around, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

By the time Luo Ziling went upstairs, Ling Ruonan had already returned to her own room, lounging on the bed, looking very tired.

“Mom, you’ve been quite busy these days, you must be tired, let me knead for you,” Luo Ziling approached Ling Ruonan and said earnestly, “It’s been several days since I’ve given you acupoint kneading.”

Ling Ruonan didn’t refuse, and lay face down for Luo Ziling to knead.

“Mom, there’s no use holding onto grievances about the past,” Luo Ziling spoke softly while kneading, “If Yuqing is dad’s daughter, then she has existed for twenty years already, and there’s no point in arguing now. Besides, dad didn’t betray you, he was set up by someone. His feelings for you have never changed, and he’s been loyal to you all these years. Seeing that you still look so troubled, you should let it go.”

Ling Ruonan remained silent.

Luo Ziling went on, “I know there were a few other women who had their eyes on my dad’s handsome looks, Qingyin’s mom had a thing for my dad back in the day, and your sister-in-law, Wu Yanning, might have been one of them, maybe some others too, just that I don’t know about them. My dad must have been quite something back then; otherwise, he wouldn’t have had so many admirers, just like me now.”

“You smug little brat, are you getting cocky?” Ling Ruonan kicked Luo Ziling angrily and snapped, “Look at what you’ve done! Aren’t you afraid that you and Yang Qingyin could also be related as siblings?”

“Mom, that’s something we can rule out. Qingyin’s mom came to me and told me that my dad had clearly rejected her back then; nothing ever happened between them,” Luo Ziling pleaded with Ling Ruonan, “Mom, can you tell me about what happened back then?”

“No,” Ling Ruonan flatly refused.

“That’s fine, better not to talk about it,” Luo Ziling was not disappointed and continued cheekily, “But I can imagine how splendid life amongst Yanjing’s young and rich was back in the day.”

“Your father was better than you!” Ling Ruonan grumbled.

“Mom, that’s beauty in the eyes of the lover. Wait, I’m your little lover too, how can you think I’m not good?”

Ling Ruonan ignored Luo Ziling.

Luo Ziling had no choice but to start giving Ling Ruonan a vigorous acupoint kneading.

“Come with me to the old house tomorrow, treat Great Grandfather again, and afterwards, we’ll go have dinner at your grandfather’s place. He should have some things to discuss with you.”

Ling Ruonan’s orders were not something Luo Ziling would oppose, and he quickly agreed.

Ling Ruonan went on, “These past few days, Wuyue has been handling the preparations for the bar’s reopening, and the day after tomorrow, on January 8th, will be the grand reopening. After returning from your grandfather’s tomorrow night, stop by the bar to get a handle on things.”

“Got it,” Luo Ziling agreed just as readily.

He also felt himself getting very busy, with something to do every day, so much so that he often didn’t have time for classes, which brought a bittersweet smile to his face.

After kneading Ling Ruonan for a while, Luo Ziling was shocked to find that his mother had fallen asleep just like that.

Seeing that Ling Ruonan’s breathing was even and she was sleeping peacefully, Luo Ziling didn’t have the heart to wake her up.

After pressing a few sleep-inducing acupoints to ensure Ling Ruonan would sleep more soundly, Luo Ziling straightened her body. Then, after thinking it through, he went out to call Wuyue in to help Ling Ruonan out of her outer clothes so she could sleep more comfortably.

Ling Ruonan had already changed into her pajamas but had put on a set of house clothes over them.

After Wuyue helped Ling Ruonan out of her outer clothes and tucked her in, she and Luo Ziling left the room together.

“Do you want to talk in the study, or shall we talk in my room?” Luo Ziling asked Wuyue.

He had already decided to spend the night there.

“It doesn’t matter,” Wuyue showed a rare hint of shyness.

“Then let’s go to my room,” Luo Ziling said to Wuyue with a mischievous smile.

Wuyue actually blushed.

But in the end, she lowered her head and followed Luo Ziling to his room.

Wuyue, usually composed and confident, turned quite restrained upon entering Luo Ziling’s room, seeming unsure whether to stand or sit.

“Wuyue, take a seat and let’s talk!” Luo Ziling called out with a smile, “It’s been a few days since I last slept here, and the room is still very tidy, you cleaned it, didn’t you?”

“When the young mistress is busy, it’s me who does the cleaning,” Wuyue answered honestly.

“Thank you for the hard work,” Luo Ziling couldn’t help teasing her further as he saw her cheeks go slightly red, “When you get married, I’ll give you a generous dowry, how does that sound?”

Wuyue, caught off guard by Luo Ziling’s comment, couldn’t help but tremble.
