Chapter 969: Chapter 969: Things Got Out of Hand Chapter 969: Chapter 969: Things Got Out of Hand The mother and son ultimately did not delve deep into today’s attack.

Under Luo Ziling’s few jests, Ling Ruonan’s gloom also dissipated.

She took off her overcoat and gestured for Luo Ziling to sit down and chat with her.

Ling Ruonan had maintained her figure very well over the years, without any signs of change.

Today, she wore something quite form-fitting, so when she took off her coat, her good figure was fully revealed.

Luo Ziling couldn’t help but joke, “Mom, when Dad came this time, did he compliment you on keeping your looks and figure so well?”

Luo Ziling’s joke turned Ling Ruonan’s face red; she glared at him annoyedly and scolded, “All you know is how to talk nonsense.”

“Mom, I was also thinking, with Dad coming this time, wouldn’t you get pregnant with a little brother or sister for me? Should I help you check your pulse to find out?” Luo Ziling said this with a serious face.

Ling Ruonan blushed furiously, unable to help standing up to hit Luo Ziling, “You jerk, always talking about this nonsense.”

“Mom, I’m serious,” Luo Ziling grabbed Ling Ruonan’s hand, “Take advantage of your good health and youth to have another. Besides, Great Grandfather and Grandpa have both agreed to let Dad come back. When the time comes, just have another wedding, and everything will be proper. Now the nation has lifted the ban on the second child, right? As senior officials, you should set a good example.”

Ling Ruonan was amused by Luo Ziling’s earnest joke, pulling her hand free from his grasp and tugging at his mouth, “Always spouting nonsense. Mom hasn’t thought about this at all, and it’s impossible for me to get pregnant.”

“So you guys took contraceptive measures, huh,” Luo Ziling suddenly felt very disappointed.

Ling Ruonan was once again infuriated, although she was a mother, her skin was much thinner than other mothers.

This age of married women, many would talk about bedroom matters in front of many people, but Ling Ruonan would never speak of such things.

Luo Ziling casually brought up the topic, of course making her terribly embarrassed.

“Don’t talk about this anymore.” Ling Ruonan threatened fiercely.

“I’ll keep talking unless one day you really are pregnant,” Luo Ziling was not intimidated by Ling Ruonan’s threat.

However, when he saw Ling Ruonan blushing like a little girl, he couldn’t help but laugh, “Mom, why are you more shy than those girls? You blush at the slightest thing. Are you always like this? If you are, how do your subordinates respect you?”

“Want to see more mischief? I’ll spank you,” Ling Ruonan continued in an infuriated manner, grabbing Luo Ziling’s cheek, “You’ve become too disrespectful.”

“Mom, let go,” Luo Ziling pleaded, “If you don’t let go, my face will be ruined. Would you be able to bear that?”

Ling Ruonan then let go, still looking miffed, “Since coming to Yanjing, you’ve picked up some slick tricks. Let me tell you, you need to attend classes properly, and not skip them all the time. What if you fail your exams? How embarrassing would that be?”

“Mom, some subjects are doomed to fail, like advanced mathematics, Marxism-Leninism, English. I just don’t get them, nor do I want to learn them. I can only submit a blank exam paper,” Luo Ziling looked distressed, “Also, to treat people, it can’t all be scheduled on weekends, right? Wouldn’t that mean I have no free time?”

“Just try to take fewer leaves,” Ling Ruonan feigned anger and then sat back on the sofa, “Let’s not talk anymore today. Just remember one thing, don’t meddle in today’s matter anymore. I’ll handle it. Got it?”

“Mom, I got it,” Luo Ziling nodded earnestly, “But I’m thinking of whom to vent this anger on.”

Ling Ruonan thought for a moment, then said, “Rest well this weekend!”

“All right,” Luo Ziling replied, standing up, “Mom, I’m going to take a shower. I sweated a lot today!”

“Go ahead,” Ling Ruonan also stood up.

While Luo Ziling was showering, Ling Haijun, who had been looking quite disheveled recently, was being scolded by his father, Ling Zhenghui.

“Was it you who instigated this morning’s events?” Ling Zhenghui shouted angrily at his son.

“What events?” Ling Haijun asked Ling Zhenghui, a look of confusion on his face.

“This morning, Ling Ruonan and Luo Ziling went to Beihai Park to enjoy the snow but were attacked,” Ling Zhenghui said sternly, anger evident in his voice. “Don’t tell me you had absolutely no idea about this!”

“Dad, I really didn’t know,” Ling Haijun looked wronged, shaking his head vigorously like a rattle. “I didn’t know about it at all, nor was I involved.”

“You’re still not being honest,” Ling Zhenghui roared furiously. “As if I didn’t know what you’re thinking, wishing Luo Ziling dead. Tell me, how many foolish things have you done, to the extent that you even have to leave Yanjing? Yet you still haven’t learned your lesson and keep resorting to such foolish tactics.”

“Dad, I really didn’t do it,” Ling Haijun was almost frantic, “Dad, I can assure you, these past few days I’ve been absolutely honest, not doing anything at all. Given the situation now, how dare I do anything?”

“But Ling Mingrui believes it was you who orchestrated today’s attack, that you and Ling Haining planned it together,” Ling Zhenghui’s forehead throbbed, “Ling Mingrui said so, which means they have solid evidence. And you still dare to argue.”

“I really didn’t do it,” Ling Haijun appeared on the verge of tears, “In front of you, how could I dare to hide anything? I really didn’t do anything.”

Seeing Ling Haijun didn’t seem like he was lying, Ling Zhenghui also became somewhat doubtful, “Really had no hand in planning today’s event.”

“Dad, really, I didn’t,” Ling Haijun said agonizingly, “I don’t dare do anything now for fear of causing you trouble.”

“Then why would Ling Mingrui think it was you?” Ling Zhenghui furrowed his brows.

“Dad, someone must have set us up,” Ling Haijun quickly defended, noticing the skeptical look on Ling Zhenghui’s face. “Maybe someone deliberately framed us to get us into even bigger trouble.”

“If that’s really the case, who could it be?” Ling Zhenghui’s frown deepened.

“It must be those Ling Family members who disagree with us,” Ling Zhenghui said confidently, “For example…”

He intended to name a few people, but upon seeing his father’s fierce glare, he ultimately refrained.

“I really had no involvement in this?” Ling Zhenghui asked uncertainly once more.

“Really, I didn’t,” Ling Haijun was nearly pounding his chest, “Dad, why won’t you believe me!”

Ling Zhenghui didn’t ask any further questions, instead, he waved his hand and dismissed Ling Haijun.

While Ling Zhenghui was interrogating Ling Haijun, Ling Zhengping was also questioning Ling Haining about similar matters.
