“My aunt didn’t say much,” Lin Lin shook her head, “She just said Mr. Ling’s background is very frightening, he’s from the Ling Family in Yanjing. She wouldn’t even tell me his name. She just warned me never to provoke him, saying good luck doesn’t last forever. For someone like us with no background, crossing paths with such powerful heirs could mean a miserable death without us even knowing it. My aunt is still worried Mr. Ling might seek revenge. If Mr. Ling wanted retaliation, they wouldn’t even know if they could survive in Yanjing. Last night, my aunt and uncle didn’t sleep well at all.”

“How did your aunt manage to invite someone with such a terrifying background?” Cao Jianhui, who was listening intently, couldn’t help but interject.

Although he said that, he felt that Lin Lin was making a mountain out of a molehill. Luo Ziling was the one with the truly frightening identity, apparent from the series of events that unfolded after the conflict in the KTV that day.

He didn’t think that Mr. Ling was all that fearsome; otherwise, he wouldn’t have left with his tail between his legs after the clash with Luo Ziling.

That phone call was very mysterious; it could have been from some heavyweight, calling to make sure they didn’t clash with Luo Ziling. If that was the case, then Luo Ziling was the truly formidable one, and Mr. Ling was nothing by comparison.

“It wasn’t my aunt who invited him,” Lin Lin replied to Cao Jianhui in a soft voice. “It was a friend of my aunt’s who went to great lengths to invite Mr. Ling. Initially, my aunt and uncle planned to treat Mr. Ling well, hoping to collaborate with the Ling Family in the future.”

Upon hearing Lin Lin mention the Ling Family again, Luo Ziling felt a sudden jolt in his heart. After taking a deep breath, he asked Lin Lin, “Can you tell me, exactly which Ling Family does this Mr. Ling belong to?”

In fact, Li Jiawei had already told Lin Lin a bit. Girls at her age weren’t that calculating, especially since Luo Ziling was someone she admired. Hearing him ask in that way and seeing the eyes that could make one instantly fall into their depths, Lin Lin hesitated before finally spilling what she knew.

“My aunt said there are a few influential families in Yanjing, and the Ling Family is one of them. Their influence is beyond our imagination. Although this Mr. Ling isn’t the legitimate grandson of the Head of the Ling Family, he’s not someone ordinary rich heirs would dare to provoke. Just imagine, if it were the legitimate children or grandchildren, how formidable they would be.” Lin Lin spoke in a low voice.

But these softly spoken words still stirred up a storm in Luo Ziling’s heart.

He instantaneously judged that the Ling Family Lin Lin mentioned was the same one his mother, Ling Ruonan, belonged to.

He had always been unaware of Ling Ruonan’s identity.

Or rather, he had always been clueless about what kind of person Ling Ruonan was, what her parents’ family was like, and what exactly happened twenty years ago to lead to him living with his grandfather from a young age, raised by him through hard times.

After hearing Lin Lin’s words, he began to have a rough understanding.

His mother, Ling Ruonan’s family, the Ling Family, must wield tremendous influence, which was evident from Lin Lin’s words and can be felt from the things Ling Ruonan did behind the scenes. It was very likely that Ling Ruonan was the one who called Mr. Ling.

If it was indeed Ling Ruonan who made the call, then it proved she had always been keeping an eye on him. Ever since he arrived in Yanjing, he had been living under her care. Whenever he ran into trouble, she would immediately find a way to resolve it—unless, for some special reason, she couldn’t find out right away.

Like the fight at the KTV last time.

As for the events from twenty years ago, Luo Ziling could guess a bit too.

It was that his father, whom he had never met, fell in love with Ling Ruonan, and their relationship wasn’t accepted by the Ling Family, forcing the three of them apart and unable to meet for twenty years.

He was also very curious about what exactly happened twenty years ago that led to such a situation?

Seeing Luo Ziling appearing thoughtful after listening, Lin Lin curiously asked, “Ziling, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing,” Luo Ziling smiled, “If they still want revenge, let them come to me. I’m not afraid of them.”

“Right, let them come to Boss. We’re not afraid of them,” Cao Jianhui chimed in.

Lin Lin opened her mouth, but ultimately, she said nothing more.

After having lunch, Luo Ziling was preparing to go back to the dormitory with Cao Jianhui and the others for a rest. He hadn’t reached the apartment building when his phone rang.

It was an unfamiliar number. Luo Ziling hesitated but still answered it.

As soon as Luo Ziling greeted with a “Hello,” a woman’s voice, devoid of emotion, came from the other end, “The commander has returned. I’m here to pick you up for treatment.”

“You’re back?” Luo Ziling didn’t mind the woman’s rudeness but was very surprised. “When did you get back?”

It turned out to be Lin Lan.

“I’m waiting for you at the place where we agreed,” Lin Lan didn’t answer Luo Ziling’s question, she said this and then hung up the phone.

While Luo Ziling was on the phone, Cao Jianhui and the others hadn’t gone far; instead, they stood aside, all ears.

They immediately recognized it was a woman’s voice, and their gossip instincts kicked in.

“Boss, whose call was that?” Cao Jianhui asked with a snicker as soon as Luo Ziling finished the call.

“I have to see a patient, so I won’t be able to attend the military training this afternoon,” said Luo Ziling as he quickly headed towards the apartment building.

By the time the three guys were shouting and chasing after him to the dormitory, Luo Ziling had already packed up and was ready to leave.

“Boss, is it that pretty female officer who came to pick you up?” Cao Jianhui shouted loudly as Luo Ziling swiftly ran towards the staircase.

But Luo Ziling didn’t answer; he ran down the stairs like a gust of wind and disappeared in an instant.

“Ah, how does the boss keep having these romantic encounters,” Cao Jianhui said enviously as he looked in the direction where Luo Ziling had vanished.

“Comparing oneself with others will only make you angry. The boss doesn’t even spare a glance for a top beauty like Ouyang Huihui, sigh!” Li Fuming sighed and walked into the dormitory.

The other two guys also shook their heads and swaggered in after him.

After Luo Ziling dashed down the stairs at breakneck speed, he ran without any pause towards the place where Lin Lan had been waiting for him before.

Soon, he saw Lin Lan’s military Humvee parked there.

Without any hesitation, he ran closer, pulled open the door, and sat down inside.

Lin Lan, who looked much better than she had a few days earlier, sat there expressionless.

“You seem to have become prettier,” Luo Ziling casually joked.

To his surprise, Lin Lan actually blushed.
