Chapter 1570: Chapter 1570: The Conflict Between Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan

Ling Ruonan stared blankly at Luo Ziling for a while, then sighed, "It seems you’ve really grown up."

"Mom, it’s over, let’s not talk about it anymore, okay?"

"You don’t trust mom?"

"Mom, it’s not that," Luo Ziling shook his head, "I just don’t want to make things difficult for you."

"Mom is just afraid something might happen to you," Ling Ruonan reached out and stroked Luo Ziling’s face, "Remember, if there’s trouble, just put all the blame on me."

"Mom, things that have nothing to do with you or me, how could they be our responsibility?" Luo Ziling grabbed Ling Ruonan’s hand and confidently smiled, "I can guarantee there won’t be any accidents. No one can trace it back to us; we’re completely innocent."

"But the Chen Family certainly doesn’t think so."

"I know, I just said that too!"

Ling Ruonan remained silent.

"They want our lives, and we want theirs, it’s actually the same. If we’re dead, it can’t be traced back to them either, the same logic applies." At this point, a hint of murder appeared on Luo Ziling’s face, "If one day, no one dares to provoke us, only then can we live peacefully."

"Is there something you haven’t told me?" Ling Ruonan sensed another layer of meaning.

After thinking for a moment, Luo Ziling finally told Ling Ruonan about being listed on the Black Gold bounty.

Upon hearing this, Luo Ziling’s face immediately showed a look of fear.

"Is it really so?" She was a bit frightened.

Although she wasn’t very clear about the situation on the Black Gold website, she could roughly guess.

"Dragon Rise people are prepared to get involved, which is a good thing." Luo Ziling smiled, "If it turns out to be the Chen Family’s doing, we can take the opportunity to eliminate them. The Fang Family is very willing to help us from behind, as they still want to divide up the Chen Family’s resources, as you said."

"Things are not that simple." Ling Ruonan sighed.

"I know, but giants only fall after getting badly hurt."

Luo Ziling said this, and Ling Ruonan just sighed slightly and said nothing more.

To be honest, her heart was a bit chaotic. She was very aware that the already tense and foreboding situation became even more strained due to Chen Jiahai’s death.

Whether there was evidence or not, the Chen Family would definitely hold them accountable unless there was conclusive evidence pointing to someone else.

Now was not the time to blame those around her, but to prepare for the storm that was about to erupt.

Of course, Ling Ruonan blamed Luo Ziling for being too reckless and impulsive, not considering the long-term. She also blamed Wuyue for becoming more audacious, making such a big decision privately with Luo Ziling, without revealing anything to her.

Ling Ruonan decided to have a good talk with Wuyue, and also to reduce her trust in Wuyue in the future. Many private matters would no longer be handed to her, maybe not even allowing Wuyue to stay by her side.

Ling Ruonan wouldn’t tolerate disloyalty from those around her, even if it was for her son.

But no matter what, she would have to clean up this mess herself.

Just then, there was a knock on the kitchen door.

Ling Ruonan opened the door and saw it was Wuyue.

Upon seeing Wuyue, Ling Ruonan’s eyes turned cold, clearly conveying her anger.

Wuyue’s eyes dodged, but she still walked in.

After entering, she reported in an emotionless tone, saying she just received news that Yang Yunzhong died in the hospital, suspected of death due to a drug allergy.

Shocked, Ling Ruonan couldn’t hold the spoon in her hand, and it fell.

Wuyue’s quick reflexes caught the spoon and placed it back on the stove.

"Miss, the mysterious deaths of Chen Jiahai and Mr. Yang Yunzhong might be due to mutual revenge." As she said this, Wuyue looked ahead calmly, resuming her usual composed demeanor.

"What are you trying to do?" Ling Ruonan was almost hysterical, growling softly, "Do you want everyone to die with no place to be buried?"

After glaring at Wuyue twice, Ling Ruonan turned to look at Luo Ziling, "You are too bold, have you thought about what the consequences would be if things are exposed? Have you thought about leaving yourself a way out? In one day, two people lost their lives."

"Mom, but it’s just them attacking each other, do you really need to get so angry?" Luo Ziling actually laughed, "I think you shouldn’t be angry, but happy. We can be the fisherman who benefits, watching them fight each other, isn’t it delightful?"

"Luo Ziling, do you think everyone is a fool?" Ling Ruonan couldn’t control her emotions but still tried to keep her voice down.

The range hood in the kitchen was on, and the door was quite soundproof, so their conversation couldn’t be heard from outside.

"Haven’t we been fools for so long?" Luo Ziling couldn’t take Ling Ruonan’s yelling at him, and couldn’t help but retort, "After all the harm we’ve suffered and all the murder attempts, what have we discovered, whose responsibility have we established? We’ve been fools for so long that we’re almost corpses. Now they’re offering a million US dollars for my head, and you want me to remain a fool, allowing them to hunt me down everywhere? Are you waiting for the day I’m dead to understand why they dare to act so recklessly? Being a brute is better than being a fool, that’s why I took the initiative."

Wuyue was stunned. She never expected Ling Ruonan and Luo Ziling to argue in front of her.

This scared her more than being scolded by Ling Ruonan.

She feared the mother and son turning against each other, not knowing what to do if that happened.

She was at a loss, unable to persuade them, so she could only stand there dazedly.

Ling Ruonan didn’t expect Luo Ziling to shout and accuse her so fiercely, leaving her momentarily stunned.

Then, her tears fell uncontrollably.

She felt wronged; she was merely afraid of Luo Ziling getting hurt, afraid that everything would be out of control, leaving them with no standing in Yanjing.

Everything she did was for Luo Ziling’s good, but unexpectedly, Luo Ziling didn’t understand at all and even blamed her.

In an instant, all her strength seemed to be drained, and she felt unsteady on her feet, as if she might collapse.

Luo Ziling saw the grievance on Ling Ruonan’s face and the tears in her reddened eyes.

In an instant, all his anger and dissatisfaction disappeared.

He also felt remorse, knowing he shouldn’t have yelled at Ling Ruonan in such a tone.

It’s just that his self-deemed successful plan was completely dismissed by Ling Ruonan, which he couldn’t accept at all.

He believed that the action he and Wuyue planned had no flaws, and no matter how the police investigated, it would only point to the Yang Family and the Chen Family. Moreover, the clues the police could find were very subtle and required effort to uncover.

Clues requiring effort to find would never be seen as intentional.

Therefore, he wasn’t worried about it being traced back to them.

He initially hoped that the action he planned would earn Ling Ruonan’s praise, but to his surprise, he got blame instead, which made him feel very aggrieved.
