When Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan went to Ling Mingrui's place for dinner, they were a little surprised to see Ling Zhengping and Wu Yaning there.
"Brother, sister-in-law." Ling Ruonan smiled and stepped forward to say hello.
Luo Ziling also stepped forward to greet him.
Ling Mingrui went out and hasn't come back yet. Xie Enhua is here.
"Brothers and sisters, let's chat first. I'll prepare dinner." After Ling Ruonan and Luo Ziling came in, Xie Enhua stood up.
Ling Haining didn't come over, and I don't know what he was doing.
Luo Ziling sat down next to Ling Ruonan.
Ling Ruonan didn't take the initiative to say anything to Ling Zhengping, and Ling Zhengping didn't speak either.
Wu Yaning noticed the embarrassment between the brother and sister and took the initiative to stir up the topic.
She asked about Ling Ruonan's arrangements for the New Year, and was very interested in her going to Yuezhou for vacation with Luo Linsheng and Luo Xusheng.
She said that she had not been to Yuezhou yet and she must visit it sometime. It was a city full of historical legends and very exquisite.
After Ling Ruonan said a few polite words, Luo Ziling took over: "Aunt, you are very welcome to go to Yuezhou. Although Yuezhou is small, the city construction is quite good, and there are many famous tourist attractions. You can go there in winter.
, very cold. Northerners are not used to that kind of dampness and coldness, and there is no heating in the room.”
"I'm not afraid of the cold." Wu Yaning said with a smile: "But if you go to Jiangnan to play, it's best to go in spring. I heard from Zhengping that Ruonan will go to Jiangnan soon to take up a post. When you go to Jiangnan, I will come to your place to play.
, you just need to introduce me some places worth visiting."
"The appointment hasn't been announced yet, who knows if there will be any changes." Ling Ruonan smiled bitterly and then said to Ling Zhengping: "Brother, I went to see Fang Zhonghua today."
"Oh?!" Ling Zhengping said "oh" but didn't ask anything.
Ling Ruonan didn't take the initiative to say anything, but asked Ling Zhengping what he thought of the situation at hand.
"You and dad are in charge of everything, let's just watch the show." Ling Zhengping spoke in a completely calm tone.
Ling Zhengping didn't want to say more, and Ling Ruonan didn't ask any more questions.
She turned around and talked to Wu Yaning about other things.
Women always have more common topics. Ling Ruonan and Wu Yaning talked about some things in life, which somewhat avoided the embarrassment between them.
Tonight, Ling Haining had a class reunion, so he didn't come here.
At about half past five, Ling Mingrui came back.
He frowned slightly when he saw Ling Zhengping and Ling Ruonan sitting in the living room, Ling Ruonan talking to Wu Yaning, and Ling Zhengping and Luo Ziling sitting silently.
Seeing Ling Mingrui come in, everyone stood up and said hello to him.
"Sit down and talk!" Ling Mingrui took the lead to sit down on the sofa and asked Ling Ruonan: "Did you go to see Fang Zhonghua today?"
"Yes!" Since Ling Mingrui asked about it in public, Ling Ruonan didn't hide it, and roughly told her about her meeting with Fang Zhonghua. She didn't hide what Fang Zhonghua meant, and told Ling Mingrui.
After hearing this, Ling Mingrui didn't say anything special, he just nodded lightly.
Ling Mingrui didn't ask any more questions, and Ling Ruonan didn't say much either.
Soon, dinner was ready, and Xie Enhua invited everyone to sit down together.
The dinner was quite lively. Wu Yaning, Xie Enhua and Luo Ziling stirred up the topic, and the atmosphere became lively.
After dinner, Ling Mingrui invited Ling Zhengping and Ling Ruonan to the study to talk.
After Ling Zhengping and Ling Ruonan walked into the study, Luo Ziling accompanied Xie Enhua and Wu Yaning to talk.
Wu Yaning is a very qualified daughter-in-law. She behaves very well in front of Xie Enhua. Xie Enhua, who calls her mother every time, keeps smiling on her face.
Ling Mingrui, Ling Ruonan, and Ling Zhengping talked for about an hour before they ended.
After coming out of the study, Ling Ruonan took Luo Ziling and left.
Seeing that Ling Ruonan's expression was not very good, Luo Ziling's heart sank, thinking that things might be a bit troublesome.
After returning home, Luo Ziling couldn't help but be curious and asked Ling Ruonan in a low voice: "Mom, what's wrong?"
"Ling Zhengping wants to pick peaches, he wants to go one step further." Ling Ruonan sighed.
"Grandpa is still in that clique, and he squeezed in again. Is this possible?" Luo Ziling looked surprised.
"Your grandpa is retiring in one month." Ling Ruonan reminded Luo Ziling, "Among them, only Lin Zeping, Wang Zhengqiang, and Wu Dongfang will remain in office, while the others will retire."
"Oh, I remember, you told me before." Luo Ziling patted his head, "You also said that even if Ling Zhengping wants to join that small group, it will take a few years, right?"
"Yes!" Ling Ruonan nodded, "I've been through this at least once."
"Ling Zhengping doesn't want to suffer another five years."
Ling Ruonan nodded.
"Then grandpa agreed?" Luo Ziling was even more curious.
"No promise!" Ling Ruonan shook his head, "He said everything must be done according to the rules."
After Luo Ziling thought for a while, he asked again: "Is Ling Zhengping afraid that in five years, he will lose his opportunity and it will become your opportunity?"
"Maybe!" Ling Ruonan did not deny it.
Luo Ziling was silent for a while, and then said: "What does my great-grandfather mean? I think that Ling Zhengping must have discussed this idea with his great-grandfather."
Ling Ruonan shook his head, "I don't know what my great-grandfather meant, Ling Zhengping didn't say anything."
"Mom, how do you think things will turn out in the end?"
"I don't know either!" Ling Ruonan sighed again, "Forget it, let's not think about it for now. It all depends on your grandpa's decision. I think he must have his own arrangements."
"Is this what you are discussing tonight?"
"That's the main thing, and I also talked about other things." Ling Ruonan looked at Luo Ziling, "The important person next to Ling Zhengping was exposed, and he suspected that it was us. You got so much black information from Chen Ruchang,
He took it for granted that he also had information about that person. Now in order to crack down on him, we are throwing out the dirty information."
"There is some dirty information about Ling Zhengping. How could Chen Ruchang collect the dirty information about the people around him?" Luo Ziling smiled bitterly, "That would make Ling Zhengping look too good, right?"
"He has abandoned this person. Forget it, let's not talk about these things. I am tired today and need to go to bed early."
"Well, let me massage it for you again!"
After massaging Ling Ruonan for a while and letting her fall asleep peacefully, Luo Ziling left the villa and went to see Yang Qingyin.
But when he was about to leave the villa, he was stopped by Lin Lan.
"At this time, are you still in the mood to accompany a woman?" Lin Lan looked a little unfriendly.
"I'm going to verify something." Although Luo Ziling felt a little guilty, he was not intimidated by Lin Lan and asked her directly, "Did you throw out the dirty information about the big housekeeper next to Ling Zhengping?"
