Chapter 1398: Chapter 1398: She is Interested

Lin Lan eventually accepted Luo Ziling’s offer to help her bathe.

When Luo Ziling stepped out, he changed into his own clothes.

The clothes were brought to him by Yang Xiaodong; they were the clothes he wore the day before, washed and hung in the room.

He didn’t wash Lin Lan’s clothes, instead planning to throw them away, fearing they might be contaminated with poison.

But washing Lin Lan meant getting clothes wet, inevitably.

To avoid wetting his clothes, Luo Ziling decided not to wear any either.

So, the two of them took a mandarin duck bath together.

At first, Lin Lan was very embarrassed, hunched up and turning her back to Luo Ziling, completely unable to relax.

But Luo Ziling just bathed her without taking advantage of the situation, which allowed Lin Lan to breathe a sigh of relief and her body to loosen up a bit.

Later, Lin Lan got a little angry; Luo Ziling was just bathing her, really only bathing, and did nothing extra special to her, so she proactively leaned into Luo Ziling’s embrace and teased him naturally.

The minds of women are forever a mystery to men, extremely strange.

When you take advantage of her, she feels you’re a hooligan, a beast; but if you don’t when you could, she feels disappointed, considering you less than a beast or thinks she’s unattractive, and broods over it.

Even a special woman like Lin Lan was no exception.

As Luo Ziling merely bathed her, without taking advantage of her, she thought Luo Ziling had lost interest in her, which led her to take the initiative to flirt. Lin Lan went so far as to provoke him and deliberately pinch his sensitive spot, causing Luo Ziling to almost lose control.

What goes around comes around; Luo Ziling naturally would not show less initiative than Lin Lan and did not resist when she flirted with him.

In the end, overwhelmed by her own feelings, Lin Lan initiated a kiss and even hugged Luo Ziling’s body in her hesitation, closing the distance between them to none.

But Luo Ziling didn’t dare to fool around, he was very aware of Lin Lan’s current physical condition.

Before treating her again, he had warned her and even intended to have Ouyang Feifei help with the bath to avoid succumbing to temptation.

Just now, when bathing Lin Lan, there was no teasing or caressing precisely to avoid losing self-control, but Lin Lan still couldn’t hold herself back.

With Lin Lan taking the initiative, Luo Ziling also struggled to control himself, but in the end, he maintained his rationality and didn’t exhaust her too much.

Lin Lan understood Luo Ziling’s intention and was even more moved, clinging to him and unwilling to separate.

In the end, of course, Luo Ziling had to carry her back to bed.

After Luo Ziling carried her back to bed, she remained affectionate. However, after bathing and all the exertions, she finally couldn’t resist fatigue, succumbed to drowsiness, and fell into a deep sleep.

Luo Ziling didn’t sleep anymore, he was very hungry and prepared to go out for lunch, intending to bring some food back for Lin Lan as well.

It was when Luo Ziling went out to a nearby school to eat a bowl of noodles, intending to bring a portion back for Lin Lan, that he received a call from Shanque.

Shanque asked what Luo Ziling was doing.

Luo Ziling naturally told the truth.

Hearing that he was having lunch, Shanque breathed a sigh of relief and made a joke, "Eating lunch at two in the afternoon, huh!"

"After treating your Kong Que this morning, I was so tired that I fell asleep and only just woke up".

"Then you eat first, I’m going to see Kong Que, I brought her some food. It’s all things she loves to eat, come back and have some later too."

"Really? Then I won’t bring her any food. I was actually thinking of bringing her a bowl of noodles." Luo Ziling laughed and said, "Wait for me then, I’ll be right back."

"Take your time eating, I can get in by myself."

"Alright, almost forgot who you guys are!"

Though he said so, Luo Ziling still finished his noodles quickly and then bought some fruit and returned to the hotel.

Just as he walked into the hotel, he received a phone call from Ling Ruonan.

After asking a few questions about Lin Lan’s injury, Ling Ruonan asked Luo Ziling, "Are you free right now? If you are, come to the Northern Group headquarters. Ouyang Feifei is here with me, there are some matters we need to discuss together."

"Alright," Luo Ziling agreed, "When the Empress Mother gives an order, how can her subject dare to refuse?"

"You little rascal, always talking nonsense," Ling Ruonan scolded with laughter, "Alright, first make sure Lin Lan is settled in before coming here. Later, you can accompany me to see her. She has been of great help to us; it is only right for me to visit her now that she is injured and sick."

"Alright," Luo Ziling agreed again.

After entering the room, he saw Lin Lan had awakened. Dressed in pajamas, she was being served by Shanque and was eating something.

"Comrade Shanque, your arrival is timely," Luo Ziling sat by the bed, glanced at Lin Lan who seemed somewhat embarrassed, then said to Shanque, "My mom called me over to discuss some matters. Could you help look after things here? I’ll be back soon."

"Go ahead, I’ve got this." Shanque agreed naturally.

Lin Lan did not say anything but simply smiled at Luo Ziling, her smile carrying a hint of inquiry.

Luo Ziling returned an easygoing smile, Lin Lan understood, and revealed an even sweeter smile.

Yang Xiaodong was sipping tea in the lobby. As Luo Ziling came down, Yang Xiaodong was seated with a girl who appeared to be a hotel employee. Seeing Luo Ziling approaching, Yang Xiaodong immediately stood up, apologized to the girl, and left with Luo Ziling.

"Found yourself a new target?" Luo Ziling teased Yang Xiaodong.

"Not at all, just bored, called her over for a chat to pass the time," Yang Xiaodong replied honestly.

Seeing Yang Xiaodong’s sincere answer, Luo Ziling did not inquire further.

After the car arrived at the Northern Group headquarters building, Luo Ziling saw a scene of bustling activity inside the company.

It’s the first day of work, and many companies are busy, Northern Group especially so.

Luo Ziling had Yang Xiaodong park the car at the lobby entrance, then walked through the lobby.

He was, after all, an employee of Northern Group, and on the official first day of work, it was fitting to show his face.

His appearance naturally attracted much attention from the employees, especially the receptionist girls, who almost screamed in excitement.

People he met face to face would proactively greet him, repeatedly addressing him as Boss Luo, which greatly satisfied Luo Ziling’s vanity.

Taking the executive elevator, he reached the floor where President Ling Ruonan’s office was located and saw Wuyue waiting by the elevator.

"Sister Wuyue, you’re waiting for me?" Seeing Wuyue, Luo Ziling could not help but joke, "Are you still mad at me?"

"Dare not," Wuyue said expressionlessly and then invited Luo Ziling into the office.

Seeing Wuyue like this, Luo Ziling also felt it was a bit dull and said nothing more, walking straight into Ling Ruonan’s office.

Once Luo Ziling sat down, Ling Ruonan went straight to the point, "Feifei heard about your plans to cooperate with Fang Dongxun, and she became interested too, wanting to join you in investing in the entertainment and media industry."

"What?!" Hearing this, Luo Ziling was taken aback.
