Chapter 877 - Chapter 877 Chapter 877 Ling Ruonans Blame on Luo Xusheng
Chapter 877: Chapter 877: Ling Ruonan’s Blame on Luo Xusheng Chapter 877: Chapter 877: Ling Ruonan’s Blame on Luo Xusheng Ling Ruonan sensed that Luo Ziling still harbored considerable resentment towards Luo Xusheng and felt a bit uneasy.
She also noticed that Luo Xusheng was very sensitive about this, looking quite disheartened, and tried hard to prove something in front of Luo Ziling.
Feeling the rift between father and son, her heart was filled with bitterness. Fearing more unpleasantness between the two, she could only change the subject, “Ling’er, last night your dad just wanted to test your martial arts skills, not to lecture you. He said your skills are pretty good and he is planning to personally teach you some unique moves. When that time comes, your skills will be even more formidable.”
“He’s not just looking for another chance to beat me up, is he?” Luo Ziling said with residual anxiety: “He could beat me half to death.”
Luo Xusheng was incredibly skilled in martial arts. Luo Ziling could defeat Phoenix using his fighting techniques, and even if Yang Xiaodong and Wang Zhenjun joined forces, he could hold on for a while. But when sparring with Luo Xusheng, he felt powerless.
Of course, that night Luo Xusheng had the advantage of a surprise attack, continuously attacking without giving him a chance to catch his breath.
But even if he had been given a chance to breathe, he would still have been defeated in the end.
Having thought he was nearly invincible, the unfortunate experience of the previous night had sobered him up.
Never having faced such a setback, Luo Ziling was rather infuriated and took the defeat quite hard.
This was also an important reason for his resentment towards Luo Xusheng.
“How could that be?” Ling Ruonan gave Luo Ziling a stern look, “He’s your dad, how could he possibly beat you?”
“He beat me up last night,” Luo Ziling was still visibly upset.
Your skills are already quite good. Being ambushed by an expert unexpectedly, and you were able to react so swiftly, counterattack amidst the danger of protecting a hostage, and pose a considerable threat to me–it’s a rarity to come across such a skilled person,” Luo Xusheng praised Luo Ziling, following along Ling Ruonan’s words, “It seems like you really have inherited Grandpa’s genuine teachings.”
“My kung fu was of course taught by him; I’ve never been to school, and most of my knowledge was taught by him. Grandpa is my lifelong idol!” Luo Ziling said proudly.
This statement made Ling Ruonan feel a bit melancholic.
As a mother who did not raise Luo Ziling herself and never educated him, she felt she wasn’t much of a mother.
“If you don’t want to spar with your dad, then let’s not,” Ling Ruonan said, “Anyway, nowadays, it’s not about fighting with your fists to win.”
“We’ll talk about it later,” Luo Ziling certainly would not refuse to learn combat techniques from Luo Xusheng, “My dad can only sneak into Yanjing for now. When he can return openly, I will learn from him then.”
“That’s good too,” Ling Ruonan nodded, hesitated for a moment, and then asked Luo Ziling, “Ling’er, your dad suggested taking us out for a drive today to have fun. Do you want to go?”
While saying this, Ling Ruonan was tiptoeing around the topic, as if afraid that Luo Ziling would refuse.
“Sure,” Luo Ziling agreed readily, then asked Luo Xusheng, “Where do you plan to take us for fun?”
“Ask your mom,” Luo Xusheng said with a touch of shyness as he looked at Ling Ruonan, “Let her decide!”
But it was Ling Ruonan who asked Luo Ziling, “Ling’er, where do you want to go have fun?”
“I don’t mind,” Luo Ziling shook his head, “anywhere is fine. You decide, you’re the most familiar with Yanjing.”
After pondering for a moment, Ling Ruonan suggested, “Let’s go to the Forbidden City then. The cold wind won’t reach us there; other places are too cold.”
Although they had all been to the Forbidden City before, neither Luo Ziling nor Luo Xusheng opposed Ling Ruonan’s proposal.
To avoid being recognized, Luo Ziling took the initiative and offered to help them disguise themselves and cover up their original appearances.
Ling Ruonan had no objections and let Luo Ziling help her with the disguise.
As for Luo Xusheng, naturally, he didn’t need Luo Ziling to disguise him, as he was skilled in the art of disguise.
Around nine-thirty in the morning, the three of them left home for the Forbidden City.
Luo Xusheng told Ling Ruonan and Luo Ziling that his father, Luo Liansheng, would arrive around three o’clock in the afternoon.
That meant they had to return before three o’clock. Once Luo Liansheng arrived, the four of them would discuss some matters together.
Luo Ziling had no objections either.
Ling Ruonan’s several luxury cars were not used; when the three of them went out, they only drove a very low-key Ford SUV.
Luo Xusheng acted as the driver, Luo Ziling sat in the passenger seat, and Ling Ruonan in the back seat.
When they first got into the car, there was a bit of awkwardness between them, and they suddenly didn’t know what to say.
Luo Xusheng’s personality was not like Luo Ziling’s; he wasn’t good at conversation, and even after meeting Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan, he didn’t talk non-stop. Eventually, Luo Ziling started the conversation, asking about Luo Xusheng’s life in Tibet over the years.
Luo Xusheng didn’t refuse and spoke a great deal about his life in the past years.
After being forced to leave Yanjing, he was sent to the military and went to Tibet.
Almost twenty years of military life, he had painstakingly worked his way up from an ordinary soldier to his current rank, becoming the commanding officer of the special forces on the snowy plateau that struck terror into the hearts of the enemy.
“Since I couldn’t leave Tibet, and had no other attachments besides you all, I devoted most of my time and energy to training. My combat skills were already pretty good, and I encountered a superior who was very kind to me, so I did well in the army. I got promoted and soon had opportunities for further advancement.” While speaking, Luo Xusheng turned his head and asked Ling Ruonan, “A lot of things were helped by you in the background, right?”
“I often pleaded with my grandpa and my mom, they must have helped. Back then, I didn’t have much ability, just the status of being Miss Ling. To get anything done, I relied on help from my family. It was then I realized I couldn’t depend on others for everything, I had to rely on myself, so I started to cultivate people who were loyal to me and worked to make myself stronger.” As she spoke, Ling Ruonan’s expression became a bit more resolute.
“Mom, your thinking is absolutely right. I’m thinking the same way now,” Luo Ziling turned to look at Ling Ruonan, “If my dad comes back, with the three of us together, plus grandpa, as long as we work together, no one will be able to do anything to us.”
“Ling’er, you’re more formidable than your dad and more daring than he was. If back then he had your boldness and recklessness, our situation wouldn’t have turned out like this.” Ling Ruonan hesitated for a bit before voicing her thoughts and said seriously to Luo Xusheng, “You should learn from your son in many ways. He had the courage to fight with the descendants of the Ling Family at the old man’s ninetieth birthday, to confront Yang Yuanshan and Yang Yunlin in the Yang Family Old House, and to argue with the old man and my dad. If you had been so bold back then, instead of playing deep, maybe things wouldn’t have ended up like this.”
Ling Ruonan’s words left Luo Xusheng completely shocked and speechless.
He couldn’t believe that Ling Ruonan was actually blaming him, and in front of their son, too.
