(20th Update)

When Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan arrived at the courtyard where Ling Mingrui lived, Ling Mingrui had not returned.

When the mother and son passed through the strict security check and entered the other hospital, the time was already half past five in the afternoon. In late November, Yanjing entered the real sense of winter, and at half past five twilight, the cold and darkness gave people a very uncomfortable feeling.

Luo Ziling didn't feel anything, but when Ling Ruonan walked past the sentry post and walked to the courtyard where his parents lived, a coldness that could not be expressed in words surged in his heart for no reason.

In the past, every time she came to her parents, she would feel at ease, and there was a sense of ease in letting go of everything, because she had a mother who loved her. But during this time, Ling Ruonan clearly felt that the estrangement between her parents, especially her father, was increasing.

Although there was no trouble with her mother, as the estrangement between her and her father deepened, the relationship between mother and daughter could no longer be as harmonious as before, at least in her feelings. Maybe her mother Xie Enhua will still treat her like before, but the guilt in Ling Ruonan's heart cannot be eliminated, and she also feels that her mother will definitely have resentment towards her and Luo Ziling, especially Luo Ziling.

As elders, they don't like juniors to behave too arrogantly in front of their own tables, Luo Ziling's performance made Ling Jinhua and Ling Mingrui angry in their hearts, that's a sure thing, and Xie Enhua can't be without prejudices. After all, Xie Enhua is the mother of the Ling family, and it is still very inappropriate for her to be forced to act to protect Luo Ziling, and it is also very understandable that she has resentment in her heart.

Therefore, when Ling Ruonan walked into the courtyard with Luo Ziling, he was still a little depressed. However, when she saw Xie Enhua greet her warmly and take her hand and walk into the room, the uncomfortable feeling in Ling Ruonan's heart disappeared a little.

"Your dad just called and said that he will be back in a while, let's not wait for him to eat, let's eat first," Xie Enhua said and let go of Ling Ruonan's hand, and then said to Luo Ziling with a smile: "Ling'er, are you hungry? Grandma prepared some dishes for you today that you like to eat." It's cold, why don't you drink some wine to warm up your body?"

Luo Ziling didn't refuse, and readily agreed: "If grandma wants to drink, then I'll accompany you to have a drink." ”

The last time we had dinner together, he saw Xie Enhua drinking, drinking a glass of rice wine, and then listening to Ling Ruonan say that her mother had a habit of drinking, not to say that she was addicted to alcohol, but to maintain her body.

At dinner, a glass of rice wine per meal, about two taels, and I don't drink more, this is the maintenance advice that Luo Liansheng gave her before, and she has always complied with it. Luo Ziling didn't know why his grandfather gave Xie Enhua such advice, but this advice is good, older people drink some alcohol, as long as it is not excessive, a moderate amount of alcohol intake can promote metabolism and activate blood vessels, which is definitely good for the body.

Hearing Xie Enhua say that Ling Mingrui would not come back for dinner, and there were official activities, Ling Ruonan didn't ask much, and motioned Luo Ziling to wash her hands and prepare for dinner, and she and Xie Enhua prepared the tableware together. Without Ling Mingrui here, the atmosphere during the meal was obviously relaxed and warmer.

Xie Enhua and Ling Ruonan picked up vegetables for Luo Ziling from time to time, and there was almost no time in his bowl.

Looking at the mountain-like dishes, Luo Ziling made a joke helplessly: "Grandma, Mom, you can't starve your stomach and let me break my stomach? After a while, the lobsters swam out of my throat." ”

I don't know if it's Ling Ruonan who said it, or for other reasons, there is a lot of seafood for today's dinner, which is quite in line with Luo Ziling's taste. And the two women put the most beautiful and freshest seafood into his bowl, and Luo Ziling felt that two-thirds of the food fell into his stomach. It feels really good to be cared for, and Luo Ziling feels warm in his heart.

"Aren't you still growing your body, just eat more," Xie Enhua sandwiched the last piece of lobster meat into Luo Ziling's bowl and urged him to eat quickly, "Eat all of these, don't leave them behind, your mother and I are full." After eating, the three of us will talk about some things that Grandma wants to talk to you. ”

Hearing Xie Enhua say this, Luo Ziling immediately ate all the food in the bowl with a fast speed.

After eating, Ling Ruonan helped Xie Enhua clean up the dishes, but did not let Luo Ziling come to help, and asked him to sit aside and eat fruit.

I don't know what Ling Ruonan said to Xie Enhua when she was cleaning up the dishes, but when the two of them cleaned up and walked to the sofa and sat down, Xie Enhua's face deteriorated slightly.

"Ling'er, did you beat Lin Jiaming today?" After sitting next to Luo Ziling, Xie Enhua asked in a low voice, "Did you hurt anyone?"

"Slapped him twice, and then kicked him to the wall," Luo Ziling replied honestly: "Who told him to scold me for wild seeds in front of my mother." ”

"Alas," Xie Enhua sighed heavily, "it seems that things are getting more and more troublesome. ”

"Mom, it's all my fault," Ling Ruonan leaned over to Xie Enhua's side, holding her mother's arm, and admitted her mistake very seriously, "Don't worry, I've already figured out how to tell my father." When my dad came back in a while, I explained the matter to him personally. ”

Xie Enhua didn't know how to answer Ling Ruonan's words for a while, and then Luo Ziling spoke: "Grandma, I just don't want to see them bully my mother, I've grown up, my dad is not around, I have to take the responsibility of keeping my mother." Whoever bullied my mom, I wouldn't give up with him. ”

"Nan Nan, I want to hear it, how are you going to talk to your father about this, presumably your mother and son understand that your father is not willing to let you continue to control the Northern Group, and he is also afraid that you will turn the Northern Group into his own private territory and get out of the control of the Ling family. ”

Ling Ruonan didn't expect her mother to ask this question directly, a little surprised, but she didn't refuse to answer, and after a little hesitation, she replied, "Mom, I just can't stand others calculating me." I was not short of money, and I did not think of turning the Northern Group into my own personal possession. Ling Er said that he hopes to achieve success through his own efforts, and does not want to sit back and enjoy the achievements of his predecessors. Therefore, I didn't think about fighting with the Ling family's people for control of the Northern Group. However, the Northern Group has grown and grown through my hands, and if I am driven out of the Northern Group because of some conflicts of interest, then I will not agree. This time, what Lin Jiaming and Ling Haining did was too despicable, and let them get the lesson they deserved, and that was also the way they should be. Therefore, when Ling'er took action to teach them a lesson, I didn't stop them. ”

Ling Ruonan said this, and Xie Enhua didn't know how to answer.

At this time, Ling Mingrui came back.
