Chapter 1414: Chapter 1414: I Will Not Continue to Be Liuxia Hui

On the ride back, Luo Ziling, clutching Ling Ruonan’s arm, asked with a puzzled face: "Mom, were you really just there by coincidence?"

"A planned coincidence," Ling Ruonan smiled, "Someone had arranged to meet me, so I chose the location where you were having dinner."

"So that’s how it was," Luo Ziling said, as if suddenly enlightened.

"Did you have a conflict with someone just now?" Ling Ruonan turned her head and looked at Luo Ziling seriously, "Was someone deliberately causing trouble?"

"It must have been Fang Dongxun’s doing; he admitted it just now," Luo Ziling relayed Dongxun’s words.

"To go to such lengths over a few female celebrities, does it make sense?" Ling Ruonan frowned slightly.

"Mom, do you suspect that he had a special purpose for doing this?"

"It’s not suspicion, but certainty," Ling Ruonan said gravely, "Although Fang Dongxun may come across as brash, he’s very savvy in what he does. Even if he instigates trouble, the purpose is definitely not so simple; he would not make such a big scene just for a few celebrities."

"Should we investigate it then?"

"No need!"

"Why?" Luo Ziling was baffled.

Ling Ruonan spoke gently, "It may well be that the incident of you having dinner with several female celebrities and the conflict with some influential figures in the entertainment industry, leading to them being thrown out of the private room, will soon spread. Your names might not appear in the public eye, but the names of those four celebrities will definitely be exposed. Think about it, having a conflict with cultural authorities and several heavyweights in the entertainment industry, yet they emerged unscathed—what does that tell you?"

"It shows that they have a powerful backing!"

"Right," Ling Ruonan nodded, "This is probably one of Fang Dongxun’s objectives for orchestrating today’s event. Another goal could be that he probably wants many people to know that you’ve joined forces, and the Luo and Fang families have formed an alliance."

After thinking it over, Luo Ziling whispered: "There must be other goals."

Ling Ruonan nodded, "It’s likely that Chen Jiahu was dining with those people, and Fang Dongxun knew it but purposely did not clarify, nor did he tell you. If Chen Jiahu had intervened today, he would have taken a strong stance. I don’t know if this was Fang Dongxun acting on his own or on behalf of the Fang Family. But either way, it indicates that the Fang Family is willing to ally with the Luo Family, even at the cost of antagonizing other families."

"So, did you make your appearance for this reason?"

Ling Ruonan chuckled and did not deny it, instead saying meaningfully, "Fang Dongxun surely hoped that I would make a public statement."

"It seems that he achieved all his goals today!" Luo Ziling couldn’t help but smile wryly.

"It’s just a matter of mutual benefit; he’s still quite decent," Ling Ruonan wasn’t bothered, "Today, your status being higher than Fang Dongxun’s in the eyes of those four women is already imprinted in their hearts. If they were to join the entertainment company established by your collaboration, they would definitely regard you with respect."

Luo Ziling couldn’t help but laugh: "Mom, so you were displaying the majesty of a queen in front of them?"

"Nonsense, what queen’s majesty? Am I a queen?" Ling Ruonan scolded with a side glance at Luo Ziling, then warned, "But I have to remind you, never get entangled with those female celebrities under your name; remember, they’re only your employees, working to make money for you. Getting involved with them can only lower your status. Understand?"

"I heed the wise teachings of Her Majesty the Empress Mother!"

"You cheeky kid, are you dissatisfied again?" Ling Ruonan scolded with a smile, then continued, "Since you’ve decided to cooperate, get the matter settled as soon as possible. If you’re interested, you can start getting involved in management, and hand it over to the right person when you find them. Also, try to produce a work, whether it be a TV drama or a film, as soon as possible, aiming for a sensational impact."

"I understand," Luo Ziling immediately agreed, suddenly thinking of Dai Shulan.

Hadn’t Dai Shulan said she was looking for a film company to collaborate with on her work?

The company he was establishing with Fang Dongxun could purchase the rights from Dai Shulan, helping her dream of turning her work into a film come true and giving her a chance to act. Thinking of this, Luo Ziling felt a small thrill of excitement.

How coincidental; just when he thought of Dai Shulan, he received a message from her.

As the car entered the residential area and stopped in front of the villa, Luo Ziling received a message from Dai Shulan: "Mr. Luo, are you free tonight? I’d like to invite you for a late-night snack."

"Why though?" Luo Ziling replied with genuine curiosity.

"We just had a blind date, and my parents, who hope I’ll marry into a wealthy family, are rushing me to meet up with you again so I can complete the mission."

Seeing Dai Shulan’s message, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but give a bitter smile. However, he also knew that Dai Shulan was probably joking; even if her parents were thinking that way, they wouldn’t say it so bluntly.

He agreed on the spot.

After telling Ling Ruonan that he was going out for a late-night snack with a friend and to talk about some matters, Ling Ruonan also agreed.

Luo Ziling then left the villa with Yang Xiaodong.

Just as their car left the villa, Luo Ziling received a message from Yang Qingyin.

"Junior, I just woke up to find everything outside covered in snow. I really wish you were here to build snowmen and have a snowball fight with me!"

"It’s snowing in Yanjing too, but it has stopped for now, and the snow hasn’t piled up."

"I’m looking forward to a heavy snowfall when I get back!"

"Are you still lazing in bed?"

"On such a cold day, it’s so comfortable to hide under the quilt and sleep in." Yang Qingyin added a few rolling-eye emojis to her message.

"You’re not sleeping naked, are you?"

"Go die!"

"What a curse!"

"I think I’ve gained weight, all from sleeping in every day." Yang Qingyin’s message was followed by a few bashful emojis.

"Gaining some weight is good, you were too bony before, not enough flesh. A bit more weight will just make up for that deficiency."

"You just think I’m not voluptuous enough, huh? Hmph, I hate you. I’ll deal with you when I get back."

"I haven’t criticized you at all; you are the perfect goddess." Luo Ziling quickly sent a message to clarify and added a compliment, then immediately followed up with another message: "When you get back, I need to personally check just how much you’ve gained, and the extent of your measurements increase."

Luo Ziling thought Yang Qingyin would get angry again after reading this message, but instead, she just replied with a few rolling-eye emojis and a message: "I don’t want your inspection, hmph, I know my own body."

"Do you want me to pick you up from the airport when you get back?"

"Not a chance!"

"Then, when you’re back, I’ll treat you to a big meal!"

"You really want me to turn into a fat pig!"

"Gaining weight is fine. I, the young master, can work miracles with rejuvenation, helping you lose that unnecessary fat, while keeping it where it should be."

"Pervert, rogue!"

"Alright, when you return, I promise to be the pervert and rogue you speak of, I won’t continue to be Liuxia Hui!"

This only earned him several more rolling-eye emojis from Yang Qingyin.
