Chapter 1355: Chapter 1355: Surprise

On Chinese New Year’s Eve, Luo Ziling was amazed by so many municipal leaders visiting their mansion and hurried forward to greet them.

On New Year’s Eve, everyone goes home for the family reunion dinner, and more importantly, it was snowing.

On such a day, Luo Ziling never expected a visit from the local leaders of Yuezhou.

"Mr. Luo, we apologize for the intrusion," Wu Jianjun said with a chuckle as he extended his hand to Luo Ziling, "Today is Chinese New Year’s Eve, and we are here on behalf of Yuezhou City and Wal City Government to wish you and your family health and a happy Spring Festival."

"Thank you, thank you so much," Luo Ziling shook hands with Wu Jianjun, expressing his gratitude, then also shook hands with Ding Zhongming, and immediately invited them into the courtyard: "Please come in and have a seat, we were just having our New Year’s Eve dinner, and we have good wine, let’s have a drink together."

"It seems we really are disturbing Mr. Luo’s family," Ding Zhongming said with a laugh: "We actually thought Mr. Luo’s family would be celebrating the New Year in the city, not realizing the old mansion had been fixed up. Ha ha, Mr. Wu and I had a simple New Year’s Eve dinner and decided to bring a few teams to visit the notable residents of Yuezhou."

"Mr. Wu and Mayor Ding consider the Luo Family Old Mansion to be the first stop for New Year’s visits," a young man who seemed to be Wu Jianjun’s secretary, interjected.

"Please come in, everyone, please come inside," Luo Ziling said after hearing this, feeling a bit touched, and hurriedly invited everyone in.

At that moment, Luo Yuqing and Wuyue also came out to greet the leaders, inviting them inside.

Luo Ziling’s family was having their New Year’s Eve dinner in the guest hall in the back courtyard.

The living room was quite large and well-ventilated, thus it was very cold.

To keep warm, Luo Liansheng had several stoves prepared.

With the several stoves providing heat, the living room was quite warm.

Luo Liansheng, Luo Xusheng, and Ling Ruonan had not gone out to welcome the guests, but when they saw Wu Jianjun and Ding Zhongming’s group enter, they also stood up from their seats. Wu Jianjun and Ding Zhongming, upon seeing Luo Liansheng, hurriedly went up to greet him and extended their hands.

"This is my son, Luo Xusheng, and his wife," Luo Liansheng introduced Luo Xusheng and Ling Ruonan.

But he did not introduce Ling Ruonan by name, because he knew she did not want people to know she was in Yuezhou.

Luo Liansheng and Ling Ruonan each shook hands with Wu Jianjun, Ding Zhongming, and the others, but gave only a simple nod to the accompanying officials of slightly lower rank, without extending their hands.

Luo Xusheng stood calmly, not saying much, nor showing particular respect to these senior officials from Yuezhou.

As if he were looking at a group of unimportant people.

Luo Xusheng had been serving in the special forces, and now as the captain of the special forces squadron in the Eastern War Zone, he had seen too much. Having experienced life and death situations, he had learned to take many things in stride, and having seen grandeur from a young age, his own rank wasn’t low either.

Colonel Luo was about to become Major General Luo, and by next year at most, he would be able to wear a general’s star on his shoulder, as promised by the elders of the Ling Family.

Therefore, he did not take these officials seriously.

As for Ling Ruonan, needless to say, her own rank was not low, usually dealing with high-ranking officials and dignitaries, her parents being among the few holding the highest positions. Usually, the officials at the prefectural level really did not qualify to meet her, or to put it another way, it was generally not their place to receive her personally; any contact would be handled by their subordinates.

Luo Liansheng had the air of an immortal Taoist master, and coupled with the presence of Ouyang Feifei, it led Wu Jianjun, Ding Zhongming, and other Yuezhou officials to guess that Luo Liansheng’s identity was mysterious and that he was an extraordinarily complex figure. That’s why they had come to visit on this special day.

Luo Liansheng’s demeanor was extraordinary, and yet, in front of Sir Luo, his son and daughter-in-law’s demeanor was even more remarkable.

Whether it was Luo Xusheng or Ling Ruonan, one could tell at a glance that they were far from ordinary.

Just by looking at Luo Xusheng, one would know he must be a military man, and a highly-ranked one at that.

As for Ling Ruonan’s demeanor, even Ouyang Feifei couldn’t compare; that calm and composed aura was characteristic of someone who held a position of great authority.

However, Luo Liansheng did not elaborate much on their identities, leaving Wu Jianjun and Ding Zhongming somewhat embarrassed.

This made them realize even more that the son and daughter-in-law of Luo Liansheng had extremely extraordinary identities.

"Mr. Ling..." At this point, a vice mayor in charge of economic and trade affairs, after staring intently at Ling Ruonan for a while, finally recognized who this unbelievably beautiful woman was. He stepped forward and asked Ling Ruonan with a slight stutter, "May I ask... if I’m not mistaken, are you Mr. Ling from the Northern Group?"

Seeing that she had been recognized, Ling Ruonan no longer hid her identity and extended her hand with a smile to the vice mayor, introducing herself: "My name is Ling Ruonan. I hold a position at the Northern Group. This time, I accompanied my father-in-law, along with his son, to return to our hometown in Yuezhou for the New Year."

Ling Ruonan’s self-introduction stunned Wu Jianjun, Ding Zhongming, and of course all the other officials present.

The Northern Group is a large state-owned enterprise, a multinational conglomerate with a market value in the hundreds of billions. Even the president’s administrative rank is frighteningly high.

At least officials at the deputy ministerial level or above have the opportunity to serve in such a role.

However, the deputy ministerial level officials weren’t the most shocking factor—it was that the stunning CEO in charge of the Northern Group was none other than the princess of the esteemed Yanjing Ling Family.

As people within a certain level of the system, those officials in significant positions have a general idea about the scions of powerful clans.

While the identities of some offspring of officials or children of noble families may be concealed, the reputation of Ling Ruonan, who has stayed at the Northern Group for many years and has managed this vast multinational conglomerate for over a decade, as a strong, formidable woman and a super beauty, has long since spread.

Although Ling Ruonan is low-key, her name resonates like thunder in many people’s ears.

She is beautiful, and her reputation was considerable back in the day in Yanjing. The true princess of the Ling Family is almost akin to a princess of Huaxia. Furthermore, after taking over the Northern Group, she transformed a second-rate state-owned enterprise into a top-tier multinational conglomerate. Titles such as strong woman, iron lady, and Huaxia’s most beautiful CEO have made the usually restrained Ling Ruonan widely known.

Even if the Ling Family deliberately downplayed these things, the reputation of Ling Ruonan still spread far and wide.

In today’s era, information media are highly convenient. Ling Ruonan inevitably had to attend some official events and accept media interviews. And a woman like her, once exposed by the media, tends to be remembered by people.

If it weren’t for her extensive reputation, there wouldn’t be so many security personnel around her, and every time she travels, it’s a major operation.

Having confirmed Ling Ruonan’s identity, both Wu Jianjun and Ding Zhongming took a deep breath.

My goodness, the identities of the Luo Family were far higher than they had anticipated.

It’s no wonder that a woman like Ouyang Feifei was willing to work for the Luo Family.
