Chapter 1553: Chapter 1553: You Really Haven’t Favored One Over the Other

The change in Luo Ziling’s expression naturally caught the attention of the others.

"Ziling, what’s wrong?" Ling Ruonan was the first to ask.

"Qingyin’s father came over after hearing the news," Luo Ziling couldn’t hide it and directly explained what happened.

"I’ll go check," Chen Qiaoyu reacted quickly, immediately stood up, "You guys continue eating, I’ll go stop him."

Saying that, she apologized to Luo Liansheng and Ling Ruonan before grabbing her bag and hurriedly heading out.

Ling Ruonan, Yang Qingyin, and Yang Qingye’s expressions all changed, but they said nothing.

"I’ll go have a look," Luo Ziling stood up, ready to step out of the private room to check the situation.

"You cannot go," Ling Ruonan stopped him, "If you go, it will be even more uncontrollable. With Mrs. Chen going, it’s enough."

Luo Ziling understood Ling Ruonan’s meaning.

If Chen Qiaoyu could stop Yang Yunlin, then nothing would happen.

If she couldn’t stop him, then whatever is supposed to occur will happen, and nothing can be avoided.

Luo Liansheng was the only one unaffected, leisurely sipping his drink, as if Yang Yunlin coming didn’t matter at all.

Yang Qingyin was the most nervous; she never imagined that the news of them having dinner together tonight would leak out, and Yang Yunlin rushed over.

If Yang Yunlin barged in and caused a scene, it would be embarrassing.

She was utterly dejected.

Originally, she wanted to seek help from Luo Liansheng, but now, how could she bring it up?

The group sat in the private room, dispiritedly continuing, without the previous harmony and joy.

After more than ten minutes, Wuyue came back in.

She whispered to Luo Ziling, "They left; Mr. Yang was taken away by his wife."

Upon hearing this, Luo Ziling breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Luo Ziling relax, the others understood what happened.

"We’ve almost finished eating, let’s go," Luo Liansheng finally put down his chopsticks, smiling, "Really, thanks to Qingyin for the treat. Next time, this old man will personally prepare a meal for you all, as a token of gratitude."

Yang Qingyin, just recovering from her fright, immediately broke into a smile, "Thank you in advance, Grandfather."

"Tomorrow, I’ll take Ziling to visit your grandfather," Luo Liansheng continued to smile, "I’ll bring some of the old wine he likes. I just hope he gives me face. If we get thrown out like the last time Ling’er was, that would be awkward."

"It definitely won’t happen," Yang Qingyin was relieved again, "I’ll also go to the old house tomorrow; I’m sure grandfather will be very welcoming to Grandfather Luo’s visit."

The matter she wanted Luo Liansheng’s help with would have to be discussed the next day.

Luo Liansheng smiled but said nothing further.

After Yang Qingyin settled the bill, the group left the restaurant.

Leaving the restaurant, Yang Qingyin received a message from Chen Qiaoyu.

"Mom and Dad have gone home. Please apologize to Grandfather Luo and Aunt Ling Ruonan on my behalf."

"Mom, they didn’t mind," replied Yang Qingyin.

After a moment’s thought, she informed Chen Qiaoyu of Luo Liansheng’s plan to visit Yang Yuanshan with Luo Ziling the next day.

Chen Qiaoyu quickly responded, "That’s great. I’ll find a way to go to the old house tomorrow too, but let’s not inform your father yet."

Yang Qingyin didn’t reply further.

As they exited the restaurant, Yang Qingye approached Luo Ziling, gave him a firm pat, and said, "Brother-in-law, things have turned out like this, so I won’t say much. Just promise to treat my sister well. If you upset her or betray her, I will hold you accountable. If you treat her well, I’ll treat you as a buddy; if she’s not happy, I’ll be your enemy."

Yang Qingye’s words left Luo Ziling somewhat amused and helpless; he didn’t argue but nodded in agreement.

After leaving the restaurant, everyone went their separate ways.

Yang Qingyin and Yang Qingye walked together, heading back to school with Luo Yuqing, while Luo Ziling joined Luo Liansheng and Ling Ruonan in the car.

Ling Ruonan initially directed the convoy to return to the villa, but after getting into the car, Luo Liansheng suddenly expressed a desire to visit Ouyang Lingyun for tea.

Seeing his insistence, Ling Ruonan didn’t object and instructed the convoy to head towards Ouyang Lingyun’s villa.

On the way, Ling Ruonan instructed Luo Ziling to call Ouyang Feifei and inform her of the situation.

When Luo Ziling called Ouyang Feifei, she was still busy at the office.

She was preparing to travel abroad, ensuring all necessary arrangements were made.

Surprised by Luo Ziling’s call, Ouyang Feifei didn’t ask much but said she’d rush home.

By the time Luo Ziling accompanied Luo Liansheng to the Ouyang family’s villa, Ouyang Feifei had already returned home ahead of them.

Seeing her waiting at the door, Luo Ziling felt quite embarrassed.

"Haha, you’re back so soon," Luo Ziling, the first to get out of the car, greeted Ouyang Feifei bashfully.

"You called me hoping I’d come to host; how could I dare not return?" Ouyang Feifei replied, half-smiling.

She didn’t converse much with Luo Ziling and immediately went to greet Luo Liansheng and Ling Ruonan.

Today, Ouyang Feifei wasn’t wearing her usual professional outfit, but a long skirt, knee-high boots, and a sweater.

Her attire today lacked its usual cool elegance, appearing casual with a touch of the girl-next-door.

Walking into the villa together, Luo Ziling sincerely praised, "You look really nice dressed like this."

"Oh, you noticed I look nice in this?" Ouyang Feifei appeared surprised, "Should I be flattered?"

"I’d like to see what you look like when flattered," Luo Ziling teased.

Ouyang Feifei responded with a playful roll of her eyes.

Ouyang Feifei waited at the door while Ouyang Lingyun emerged from the living room, standing in the yard to greet Luo Liansheng.

"Luo, I didn’t expect you’d come over this late; I’m genuinely flattered," Ouyang Lingyun said, laughing as he approached.

Walking behind, Luo Ziling quietly commented to Ouyang Feifei, "Look, your grandfather says he’s flattered, but his version is very different from yours; you gave me just a roll of your eyes!"

Ouyang Feifei didn’t reply to Luo Ziling but asked instead, "Must have been lively tonight, eh? Yang Qingyin and her family treating you all to dinner."

"How do you know?" Luo Ziling reacted alertly, quickly deducing someone nearby must’ve leaked the information.

Ouyang Feifei didn’t answer the question, instead sarcastically commenting, "After dinner, you guys came to my grandfather for supper—you really don’t favor one over the other."

Luo Ziling was momentarily stunned, finally understanding Ouyang Feifei’s meaning.

His mood soured instantly, and he frowned.
