“Just curious,” Luo Ziling suppressed the excitement in his heart and smiled at Yang Qingyin, “Everyone is curious about a woman who was once the most beautiful in Yanjing and honored as the First Princess of Yanjing.”

Yang Qingyin slightly furrowed her brows but quickly relaxed, “Indeed, any man would be curious about such a woman.”

“With a wife like that, her husband must be very happy, right?” Luo Ziling asked again with a voice that trembled slightly.

“Her husband? Happy?” Yang Qingyin shook her head, “She wasn’t happy, she didn’t even know where her husband was.”

“What happened?”

After pondering for a while, Yang Qingyin made up her mind and said, “Alright, I won’t keep it from you. Ling Ruonan was originally engaged to my uncle but later fell in love with an outsider. The two of them got together, and she conceived a child out of wedlock, giving birth to a son.”

Luo Ziling listened intently, holding his breath, and kept silent while listening to Yang Qingyin, but when she mentioned that Ling Ruonan had given birth to a son, he couldn’t help but become very anxious, “And then? What about your uncle?”

“After that, my uncle died, and Ling Ruonan’s lover and her illegitimate son were driven out of Yanjing,” Yang Qingyin finished, then added with a bitter smile, “These are things my mother told me. After this incident, the Ling Family and the Yang Family, who were once on good terms, became almost enemies.”

“So that’s how it is,” Luo Ziling was greatly surprised, finding it hard to believe that things were actually like this, too complex, too sensational, just like something out of a TV drama or novel.

His own father, Luo Xusheng, had actually taken the fiancée of Yang Qingyin’s uncle, deceiving Yanjing’s most beautiful woman and the First Princess into his arms.

Thinking about this, Luo Ziling couldn’t help but commend his father, whom he had never met, with a hundred and eight likes—he was truly remarkable, a man among men.

However, Luo Ziling was also angry about the punishment that he and his father had received, those people had actually driven them both out of Yanjing.

It seemed that the matter was still not completely resolved, otherwise his father, Luo Xusheng, wouldn’t be missing without a trace, and Ling Ruonan wouldn’t fail to come to see him. A family of three separated for twenty years, was this the punishment they had received back then?

Thinking about this, Luo Ziling’s heart was filled with anger.

He didn’t know who had imposed this punishment, whether it was the Yang Family or the Ling Family—but regardless of who it was, they were the enemies of his family.

With that thought, Luo Ziling’s heart swelled with boldness.

He wanted to seek revenge, to remove the punishment that had been forced upon them and to reunite his family of three.

In the past, he always resented his parents for abandoning him since he was little, especially Ling Ruonan.

After knowing that Ling Ruonan was nearby but had never come to see him, he was very angry. But after listening to Yang Qingyin and considering what the woman who had brought the gifts had said, Luo Ziling’s resentment towards Ling Ruonan had almost completely dissipated.

Given what had happened and the ensuing situation turning out like this, Luo Ziling wasn’t surprised at all anymore.

He also gained a further understanding of Ling Ruonan’s capability.

For Ling Ruonan, who was raised in such a family, there shouldn’t be any unresolved issues once she intervened, not to mention that he hadn’t done anything wrong.

He also became aware of why the Ouyang Family, including Ouyang Lingyun, Ouyang Feifei, and Ouyang Huihui, treated him the way they did—it must be because they knew his background.

“Sigh, all the kindnesses and grievances are actually in the past, it’s been twenty years; what feuds can’t be resolved,” Yang Qingyin sighed softly before continuing with emotion, “Even though Ling Ruonan caused the death of my uncle, I actually feel very sorry for her. If I were Ling Ruonan, facing the person I loved, I too would stop at nothing to marry him.”

When she said this, a blush appeared on Yang Qingyin’s face, and she stole a glance at Luo Ziling.

Luo Ziling didn’t react much, still lost in his own thoughts.

Seeing that Luo Ziling didn’t show any particular reaction, Yang Qingyin breathed a sigh of relief, yet also felt a hint of disappointment.

Nevertheless, she continued, “Nowadays, the Ling and Yang families have very little contact, especially my grandfather and my father, they hold deep grudges against the Ling family.”

After hearing this, Luo Ziling didn’t know how to comment and could only pick up his chopsticks and begin eating voraciously. After a few bites, he smiled awkwardly and said, “I don’t like marriages arranged by the elders either, so I called off the engagement with Ouyang Feifei. Free from the constraints of the engagement, both she and I can seek the love we desire, and we can be friends.”

Finally responding to her earlier remarks, the bit of gloom that had started to form within Yang Qingyin instantly dissipated.

She flashed a coquettish smile at Luo Ziling and then gestured to the seafood in front of them, “Hurry up and eat, it won’t taste good once it gets cold.”

“Okay,” Luo Ziling, though eager to hear more from Yang Qingyin, felt too embarrassed to probe further and refocused his efforts on devouring the food before him.

But after eating for a while, he quickly thought of a problem. He and Yang Qingyin were actually from the two families that had been involved in a tremendous conflict years ago. To put it dramatically, his parents were the enemies of Yang Qingyin’s uncle, and there was still enmity between them.

Upon realizing this, all the happiness in his heart vanished instantly, and the food that had tasted so delicious moments ago now seemed tasteless.

“What’s the matter?” Yang Qingyin noticed the sudden change in Luo Ziling’s expression and curiously asked, “Doesn’t it taste good?”

“No,” Luo Ziling smiled awkwardly and continued to eat vigorously, “The flavor is excellent, the seafood feast you invited me to is delicious. I just got poked by a shrimp shell, that’s all.”

Yang Qingyin didn’t ask further and simply continued eating with Luo Ziling.

After dinner, the two left the place.

It was still early, so they didn’t rush back to school.

Luo Ziling was preoccupied with thoughts, but he didn’t know how to share them with Yang Qingyin.

Yang Qingyin wasn’t thinking too much. She told Luo Ziling that she would take care of the vehicle for the National Day trip and suggested he make other arrangements in advance. At the end, Yang Qingyin even teased Luo Ziling, “Don’t tell me we’ll just go wherever the road takes us.”

“Definitely not,” Luo Ziling asked another question, “Senior, could you tell me more about what happened back then, and about Ling Ruonan now?”

“Why are you so interested in these things?” Yang Qingyin, holding Luo Ziling’s hand, asked with a laugh, “You’re not too nosy, are you?”

But upon seeing Luo Ziling’s strange expression, she instantly had an idea, causing her face to turn pale.

After taking a deep breath, she whispered to Luo Ziling, “I remember, the man Ling Ruonan was in love with back then was named Luo Xusheng.”

After asking this, she fixed her gaze on Luo Ziling without blinking.
