Chapter 1501: Chapter 1501: Cold Treatment

Wuyue had actually been in contact with Lin Lan, which surprised Luo Ziling quite a bit.

However, Wuyue didn’t elaborate much, and Luo Ziling didn’t feel it was appropriate to ask.

After the four of them finished their discussion, Luo Ziling returned to the living room. Wuyue didn’t come with him; she still had some things to discuss with Yang Xiaodong and Wang Zhenjun.

When Luo Ziling walked into the living room, the women had already finished tidying up and were sitting on the sofa chatting.

Seeing Luo Ziling enter, Ouyang Feifei was the first to announce her departure.

"Mrs. Ling, Ziling, I’ll head out first. I have some things to take care of. I’m a bit tired today and need to rest early."

"Ziling, why don’t you walk Feifei out," Ling Ruonan didn’t try to persuade her to stay but instead asked Luo Ziling to escort Ouyang Feifei out.

Luo Ziling naturally agreed.

"Mrs. Ling, I’m leaving too. I’ll go with Feifei, and she can give me a ride," Luo Yuqing also announced her departure.

"Alright, get some rest early," Ling Ruonan smiled faintly, again making no effort to retain her.

It was obvious to everyone that Ling Ruonan wanted a moment alone to talk with Yang Qingyin.

"Let’s go, I’ll walk you both out." Luo Ziling grabbed Luo Yuqing’s arm and accompanied Ouyang Feifei out of the living room.

"Ziling, I’ll come find you tomorrow; there are many things I need to discuss with you," even with Luo Yuqing by her side, Ouyang Feifei spoke candidly to Luo Ziling. "You shouldn’t have officially started classes yet, right?"

"I’ll come find you at the headquarters of Lingyun Group instead," Luo Ziling didn’t want Ouyang Feifei coming to the school to look for him. "I’ll come by at noon."

"Alright then," Ling Ruonan didn’t refuse and quickly agreed.

Luo Yuqing didn’t say anything, simply walking out in silence.

After getting into Ouyang Feifei’s car, she merely waved goodbye to Luo Ziling without saying much more, which puzzled Luo Ziling.

"Could it be that they said something to upset her just now?" Luo Ziling was full of doubt as he walked back to the house.

When he returned to the living room, he saw Ling Ruonan and Yang Qingyin sitting there talking. Yang Qingyin was looking down, while Ling Ruonan wore a serious expression.

"Should I come in or am I interrupting?" Luo Ziling hesitated in the doorway.

"Come in," Ling Ruonan sighed and motioned for Luo Ziling to sit beside her.

After Luo Ziling sat down, Ling Ruonan asked him, "Do you have any new thoughts you want to share with me?"

Luo Ziling shook his head. "The same as before—nothing has changed."

"Then I won’t say much for now," Ling Ruonan smiled slightly. "I’ve finished talking with Qingyin as well. You’re all tired today; get some rest early."

"Mrs. Ling, I’ll head out now," Yang Qingyin stood up.

"Get some rest early," Ling Ruonan, as before, didn’t ask her to stay and merely had Luo Ziling escort Yang Qingyin out.

As they left, Luo Ziling curiously asked, "What did my mom say to you?"

"She told me about some things that happened recently and gave me some advice."

"What kind of advice?"

"She hopes we can learn from their experiences and not let things spiral out of control—leave ourselves an out."

"What does that mean?" Luo Ziling felt a little confused.

Yang Qingyin hesitated for a moment before honestly replying, "She asked me just now if we’ve... done that."

"Uh, she even asked something like that?" Luo Ziling was embarrassed. "What did you say?"

"What else could I say? I told her the truth, of course."

"And what did she say then?"

"She hopes we can stick to our boundaries—no matter what, we must avoid having children before marriage." Yang Qingyin turned to look at Luo Ziling. "I understand what she means by her advice. She wants to protect me as much as possible. If, for some reason, I can’t marry you one day, at least I won’t suffer additional troubles."

"What era are we living in? Why does she still care about something like that," Luo Ziling grumbled.

"I accepted your mother’s advice," Yang Qingyin looked at Luo Ziling with a hint of helplessness. "I think her reminder is well-intentioned. She doesn’t want us to act rashly and create an irreversible mess. She has deep experience with such matters and doesn’t want us to repeat her mistakes."

"If one day we have no other choice and using a child born outside of marriage becomes the only way to fight back, would you still refuse to go along with it?"

Unexpectedly, Luo Ziling asked this, and Yang Qingyin paused, clearly caught off guard. Eventually, she let out a helpless sigh. "I don’t know."

"Alright, let’s not dwell on this today." Luo Ziling took Yang Qingyin’s hand and said while walking, "Let’s have dinner together tomorrow night and talk everything over properly, okay?"

Yang Qingyin hesitated before replying, "Tomorrow I want to go home for a bit. How about the day after tomorrow?"

"Alright," Luo Ziling didn’t push further.

They didn’t say much else and walked forward in silence.

"Thank you for coming to Chang’an to see me," when they reached a dimly lit area, Yang Qingyin suddenly turned around, hugged Luo Ziling, and gave him a kiss. "Seeing you made me very happy."

"But you were still avoiding me!"

"At that time, I was still angry."

"I understand, girls need to maintain their dignity."

Yang Qingyin didn’t argue with Luo Ziling further and merely smiled. "Alright, go back now. Your mom probably still has something to talk to you about. I’ll leave first; I’m very tired today and need to rest early."

"Alright," Luo Ziling didn’t say much more either.

After seeing Yang Qingyin off into her car, Luo Ziling turned and went back.

Ling Ruonan was still sitting on the sofa. When she saw Luo Ziling come in, she motioned for him to sit beside her.

"Mom suggests you take a step back in your relationship with Yang Qingyin and avoid further provoking Yang Yunlin," Ling Ruonan spoke directly without any pleasantries. "No matter how you ultimately want to handle your relationship with Yang Qingyin, I think it’s best to cool things down for now. I’ve already told her this as well. Yang Yunzhong’s situation, combined with this recent incident, has thoroughly enraged Yang Yunlin. From every perspective, you must proceed with extreme caution. If you truly wish to marry Yang Qingyin someday, this approach is even more necessary."

Luo Ziling listened in silence, unsure how to respond.

"Now that the semester has started, focus on your studies. The tasks your grandfather assigned to you—those haven’t even been properly initiated, let alone completed. There’s also the collaboration with Lingyun Group, the construction of the Beifang Group Pharmaceutical Subsidiary, and Qingniao Media—all of these require your attention. With so much on your plate, temporarily setting other things aside won’t make much of a difference. After all, all these people are around you; your relationships won’t grow cold so easily."

After saying all this, Ling Ruonan paused before continuing, "Time reveals true intentions. You’ve only known and interacted with Yang Qingyin and Ouyang Feifei for half a year—that’s too short to truly understand much, including someone’s character or compatibility. Who knows, after a certain period of time, you might not even need to make a choice because the answer will reveal itself."

"I understand."
