However, Yang Qingyin’s bursting laughter that followed made Luo Ziling laugh too.

They quickly left the villa district, where Ye Xiaoli had already been waiting in her car.

After saying goodbye to each other, Yang Qingyin got into Ye Xiaoli’s car and went back to school first.

Luo Ziling was of course aware that Yang Qingyin’s early return to school was an opportunity for him to have a private talk with Ling Ruonan.

If Yang Qingyin had stayed, it would have been awkward for mother and son to have a private conversation, especially since the topic might have been her. Plus, Ling Ruonan had wanted Luo Ziling to sleep over, and it wouldn’t have been possible for Yang Qingyin to stay at Ling Ruonan’s place as well.

Yang Qingyin’s excuse to leave early was actually a smart decision.

When Luo Ziling returned to the villa, Ling Ruonan and Wuyue had already tidied everything up and were sitting there drinking tea.

The half an hour he had spent sending Yang Qingyin away had not seemed strange to Ling Ruonan.

“Ling’er, go try on the new clothes I bought for you,” Ling Ruonan stood up as she saw Luo Ziling return.

Luo Ziling obediently agreed and followed Ling Ruonan upstairs.

Ling Ruonan had bought many clothes for Luo Ziling, asking him to try them on one by one.

Shopping is a woman’s favorite pastime, including buying clothes for herself and for men.

But Ling Ruonan was different from ordinary women; most of her clothes were custom-made. She didn’t buy clothes for herself when they went out, but she did like buying clothes for Luo Ziling. She felt a sense of achievement from the piles of clothes and items she bought for her son.

Of course, she was also contemplating finding a competent male fashion designer to design clothes for Luo Ziling.

As Luo Ziling tried on clothes, she sat nearby with a smile, watching him put on the clothes she had bought and change into various handsome looks. Seeing her son happy with the different images the clothes gave him made Ling Ruonan feel very accomplished.

Seeing Luo Ziling’s satisfied smile made her feel happier than signing a contract worth billions.

Seeing that Ling Ruonan had not yet discussed any important matters with him and that he kept changing clothes, Luo Ziling couldn’t hold back any longer. After changing into a set of casual clothes, he sat down on the bed and took the initiative to start the conversation, “Mom, today Lin Lan told me, the female officer from Dragon Rise, she is investigating the assassination attempt. She said the situation most likely was orchestrated by Ling Haining.”

Although Ling Ruonan wasn’t surprised, her smile faded, and she nodded slightly, “She has already contacted me and told me about this. However, they haven’t been able to find conclusive evidence. So, in the end, we can’t put this crime on their father and son.”

“It’s enough that we know it,” Luo Ziling didn’t care about what Ling Ruonan had said, “At Ouyang Huihui’s birthday party, I had a confrontation with Ling Haining and Ling Haijun. They tried to get me drunk, but they ended up making a fool of themselves. If they dare to treat me like that again, I will be even less polite.”

“Ling’er, about the incident during Ouyang Huihui’s birthday, if I’m not mistaken, it was also orchestrated by Ling Haining,” Ling Ruonan sat next to Luo Ziling and spoke with a hint of sadness, “Mom didn’t expect that the Yang Family wouldn’t go to extremes with you, but it turned out to be our own Ling Family who constantly want to put you in danger. All this is because Mom has offended them over the years—it’s my fault!”

“Mom, it’s not your fault,” Luo Ziling took Ling Ruonan’s hand and squeezed it tightly, saying, “No matter what, they would never allow me to return. Before my appearance, you were part of the Ling Family, but after I came, you became the mother of a Luo, a daughter-in-law of the Luo Family. They fear I will take what belongs to them and that you will give everything to me, so they wish I were dead.”

“Do you feel that being born into a wealthy family is a misfortune?” Ling Ruonan did not refute Luo Ziling’s words but smiled helplessly, “Actually, being born into a rich clan can sometimes be very sad.”

“Not necessarily,” Luo Ziling shook his head, “If those born into wealthy families value emotions, including kinship and love, then they won’t have such thoughts; if they value interests more than feelings, then for the sake of those interests, they can trample on any emotion. We should treat those who cherish loyalty and emotions differently from those who only care about interests.”

Ling Ruonan was surprised that Luo Ziling would say such a thing.

After looking at Luo Ziling seriously for a moment, she held his hand tightly, “If you can think like this, then I am relieved.”

Luo Ziling also immediately informed Ling Ruonan about what Yang Qingyin had said—that the Yang Family was preparing to form a marriage alliance with the Fang Family.

Ling Ruonan was shocked after hearing this, because Yang Qingyin didn’t mention it during their conversation.

After carefully asking about Yang Qingyin’s reactions before and after she mentioned it, Ling Ruonan said thoughtfully, “It seems she originally didn’t want to disclose this, but in the end she told you anyway. Based on my analysis, this idea is just an initial consideration by Yang Yunlin and it is not yet mature, which is why father and daughter only discussed it briefly. Yang Qingyin also knows this, so she isn’t comfortable discussing it with me until it becomes a fact. But I believe, if Yang Yunlin has such a thought, he will definitely persuade Yang Yuanshan, and ultimately, there might be a spectacle of a marriage alliance between the Yang and Fang families. That could indeed complicate matters.”

“Mom, I know the implications behind it are more complex than I thought, and I’d like to hear more of your analysis,” Luo Ziling said.

Ling Ruonan nodded and let out a soft sigh before continuing, “If the Yang Family really does this, it would not only be to upset you and keep you away from Yang Qingyin, but there’s also another important purpose, which is to damage the relationship between the Fang Family and the Luo Family. Your grandfather and Fang Xiang have a good relationship; Fang Xiang helped your grandfather in the past. If the Yang Family decides to form a marriage alliance with the Fang Family, and you and Yang Qingyin have such a relationship, the ultimate result will be that the relationship between the Fang Family and our Luo Family will deteriorate, even to the point of hostility. If the Fang Family becomes hostile to our Luo Family, it will be even harder for you to stand your ground in Yanjing.”

After pondering it over, Luo Ziling agreed with what Ling Ruonan had said. Of course, he did not know the relationship between the Fang Family Head Fang Xiang and his grandfather Luo Liansheng from the past, so he could not judge the seriousness of what Ling Ruonan had just mentioned.

In the end, Luo Ziling could only give a wry smile and say, “Mom, it seems that things are far from being as simple as I thought. My being together with Yang Qingyin could potentially have implications for the interests and struggles between major families.”

“Of course, just like what happened between your father and me back then, a simple affair between two people led to so much strife among families, and in the end, it spiraled out of control!” With that, Ling Ruonan became somber.
