The Young Urban Doctor - Chapter 2370 2370: You've Become So Scheming

When Ling Ruonan came downstairs after taking a shower, she saw Luo Ziling engaged in a heated discussion with Luo Ziling.

She was greatly surprised: What were these two guys arguing about that made them so excited?

Ling Ruonan rarely saw Ouyang Feifei argue so intensely with anyone; it wasn’t her character.

Upon seeing Ling Ruonan come down, Luo Ziling and Ouyang Feifei stopped talking. Ouyang Feifei stood up and politely greeted Ling Ruonan.

Luo Ziling also stood up, with a playful grin, he said to Ling Ruonan, “Mom, just now, I had a discussion with Feifei about several important matters.”

Ling Ruonan glanced at the clock on the wall; it was almost ten o’clock.

Ling Ruonan’s gesture made Ouyang Feifei a bit embarrassed.

It was indeed late. Around ten o’clock at night, for a single woman to linger at someone else’s home was somewhat inappropriate.

But her purpose of coming here today hadn’t been achieved yet, and without having communicated with Ling Ruonan and receiving a definite answer, she didn’t want to leave.

So, she immediately expressed her apologies, saying she hadn’t realized it had become so late, thus disturbing Ling Ruonan’s rest.

But after expressing these apologies, she quickly switched topics: “Mrs. Ling, I was just discussing many things with Ziling, but I feel it’s necessary to seek your advice.”

“What kind of things couldn’t you two decide on?” Ling Ruonan chuckled and sat down on the sofa.

“I’ve already made my decision, but she doesn’t trust it. She insists that you, the ‘Empress Dowager,’ make the final ruling.” Luo Ziling sat next to Ling Ruonan, “It seems like, in her eyes, I’m still a little brat without any say!”

Unexpectedly, Luo Ziling was once again belittling her in front of Ling Ruonan, leaving Ouyang Feifei embarrassed and blushing.

Ling Ruonan chuckled lightly, gesturing for Luo Ziling to briefly explain the situation.

Luo Ziling didn’t refuse and gave a brief explanation.

After explaining, Luo Ziling turned to Ouyang Feifei and said, “If you have something to add, go ahead.”

“Mrs. Ling, I came here today mainly for these purposes: first, to inform Ziling that I’ll visit Chen Ruchang tomorrow; second, to discuss the proposal to establish a new energy company through a merger in the south; third, to inquire about the story behind the photo from tonight. Mainly these three matters. As for merging our pharmaceutical companies, I think it’s too soon, and discussing it later wouldn’t be too late.”

“Is that all?”

“There’s another matter.” Under Luo Ziling’s pressing, Ouyang Feifei had to admit her main purpose was to inquire about the story behind that photo.

Upon revealing the intention, Luo Ziling seemed somewhat smug, saying he had guessed Ouyang Feifei’s purpose from the start.

Luo Ziling’s words and his attitude while speaking angered Ouyang Feifei again.

Ling Ruonan, of course, guessed that Ouyang Feifei’s main reason for visiting them was the photo from tonight, although she didn’t expect Ouyang Feifei to have so many purposes.

“Since Ziling agrees, I have no objections either.” After thinking for a moment, Ling Ruonan also accepted Ouyang Feifei’s proposal to jointly form a group company for the energy and automotive investment projects in the south. “This should symbolize further cooperation between our families, right?”

Ling Ruonan’s easy acceptance was quite unexpected for Ouyang Feifei, but it made her quite happy.

“Thank you for your trust, Mrs. Ling!” She blushed slightly and expressed her gratitude.

“I’ve said that Ziling can make decisions about these matters!” Ling Ruonan patted Luo Ziling’s arm and laughed: “Since he has agreed, that’s fine.”

Ouyang Feifei suspiciously glanced at Luo Ziling and then at Ling Ruonan, finally nodding.

Ling Ruonan intelligently avoided mentioning Ouyang Feifei’s visit to Chen Ruchang, knowing that Luo Ziling must have communicated with Ouyang Feifei regarding this matter. Such matters were not suitable for her to inquire about.

Ouyang Feifei brought it up voluntarily, probably seeking more trust from her, but there was no need to repeat such confidential matters.

As for the merger of yet-to-be-fully-operational Northern Pharmaceuticals and Lingyun Pharmaceuticals, Ling Ruonan hadn’t even considered it.

Upon realizing it was Luo Ziling’s proposal, she displayed a thoughtful expression.

Still, she didn’t comment on the matter but agreed with Ouyang Feifei, deferring it for future discussion.

After discussing these matters, it was already half past ten at night. Seeing Ouyang Feifei still looking reluctant to leave, Luo Ziling thoughtfully stood up, saying he was sweating and needed a shower, suggesting Ouyang Feifei chat with Ling Ruonan for a while.

“Chatting with a beauty makes me quite nervous; I’m all sweaty!” Luo Ziling joked before leaving.

To Luo Ziling’s surprise, when he came back downstairs after his shower, Ouyang Feifei had already left.

“Wow, she left so quickly?” He asked in surprise upon seeing Ling Ruonan alone in the living room, “I thought you two had a lot to talk about!”

“I told her that regarding matters about the Northern Group, your decision is my decision.” Ling Ruonan smiled, “So, she didn’t have much else to say.”

Luo Ziling chuckled, “Of course, regarding matters I can’t decide on, or matters of significant importance, I’ll definitely consult with you.”

“I know. Alright, it’s late, go to sleep. Spend tonight at home!”

Seeing Ling Ruonan speak with a peculiar expression on her face, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed.

He knew that Ling Ruonan was aware of his nighttime activities in the past couple of days.

Ling Ruonan was likely worried about his excess indulgence without restraint, so she didn’t want him to go to Yang Qingyin’s place.

He could only agree.

After returning to his room and lying on the bed, Luo Ziling explained to Yang Qingyin.

Yang Qingyin had thought Luo Ziling would come over to accompany her tonight, hence she had been waiting.

With Luo Ziling not coming, she was slightly disappointed.

“Why did you post that kind of tweet today?” Yang Qingyin finally asked about Luo Ziling’s sudden social media activity, refraining from expressing her displeasure.

“You’re so smart; you should be able to guess why.”

“Annoying, still keeping secrets from me!” Yang Qingyin threw back several eye-roll emojis.

Luo Ziling replied with a message: “I’m not, you already guessed it, didn’t you?”

“I really didn’t expect you to become so scheming now!” Yang Qingyin typically added several eye-roll emojis.

“Don’t wrong a good person; I’m just a bit wiser, not scheming.”

She sent more eye-roll emojis in response.

But then Yang Qingyin sent a text message: “How about accompanying me tomorrow to visit my grandfather?”

“Totally no problem!” Luo Ziling agreed without hesitation.

“Let’s go tomorrow afternoon, we’ll have dinner at my grandfather’s place.”

“Okay!” Luo Ziling agreed again.

“Tomorrow night, my parents should be there as well!”

“…”
