(20th update)

When Luo Ziling and Ling Ruonan arrived at the other courtyard where Ling Mingrui lived, Ling Mingrui had not come back yet.

When the mother and son entered the villa through strict security checks, it was already 5:30 pm. In late November, Yanjing entered the real winter. At 5:30 pm, twilight had already fallen, and the cold and darkness gave people a very uncomfortable feeling.

Luo Ziling didn't feel anything, but when Ling Ruonan walked past the sentry's post and walked towards the yard where his parents lived, a cold feeling that he couldn't express in words came to his heart for no reason.

In the past, every time she came to her parents, she felt at ease and relaxed to let go of everything because there was a mother who loved her. But during this period, Ling Ruonan clearly felt that the gap with her parents, especially her father was growing.

Although there was no trouble with her mother, as the estrangement with her father deepened, the relationship between the mother and daughter could no longer be as harmonious as before, at least in her sense. Perhaps her mother Xie Enhua would still treat her as before, but Ling Ruonan's conscience could not be eliminated. She also felt that her mother would definitely have resentment towards her and Luo Ziling, especially to Luo Ziling.

As an elder, I don’t like the younger generation to be too arrogant before her performance. Luo Ziling’s performance made Ling Jinhua and Ling Mingrui angry, that was certain, and Xie Enhua could not have had prejudice. After all, Xie Enhua is the mistress of the Ling family, and it is still very inappropriate that she was forced to protect Luo Ziling. It is easy to understand if she has resentment in her heart.

Therefore, when Ling Ruonan took Luo Ziling into the yard, he felt a little depressed. However, when he saw Xie Enhua greeting him enthusiastically and holding her hand into the room, Ling Ruonan felt a little uncomfortable.

"Your father just called and said he would come back soon. Let's not wait for him to eat. Let's eat first," Xie Enhua said, letting go of Ling Ruonan's hand, then smiled and said to Luo Ziling: "Ling'er, are you hungry? Grandma has prepared some dishes for you today. The weather is cold, why not, drink some wine to warm your body?"

Luo Ziling did not refuse and agreed readily: "If grandma wants to drink, then I'll have a drink with you."

When we were having dinner together last time, he saw Xie Enhua drinking and had a glass of rice wine. Then Ling Ruonan said that her mother had the habit of drinking, not saying that she was addicted to alcohol, but to protect her body.

At dinner, there is a glass of rice wine for each meal, about two taels, and I don’t drink too much. This is the maintenance advice that Luo Liansheng gave her before, and she has always followed 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 they are not too much, and intake of moderate amounts of alcohol can promote metabolism, activate blood vessels, and will definitely be beneficial to the body.

After 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 signaled Luo Ziling to wash his hands and prepare for dinner. She and Xie Enhua went to prepare tableware together. Without Ling Mingrui, the atmosphere during the meal was obviously relaxed and warm.

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

Looking at the hill-like food, Luo Ziling joked helplessly: "Grandma, mom, you can't starve your stomach, let me break my stomach? After a while, the lobsters swam out of my throat."

I don’t know if it was Ling Ruonan or other reasons. Today’s supper was filled with a lot of seafood, which was quite suitable for Luo Ziling’s taste. And the two women put the most beautiful and freshest seafood into his bowl. Luo Ziling felt that two-thirds of the food fell into his stomach. It felt really good to be cared for, and Luo Ziling felt warm in his heart.

"Aren't you still growing? You just need to eat more," Xie Enhua put the last piece of lobster meat into Luo Ziling's bowl and urged him to eat it soon. "Eat all these, don't leave them left. Your mother and I are full. After dinner, the three of us will talk about the conversation first, and grandma wants to tell you some things."

After hearing what Xie Enhua said, Luo Ziling immediately ate all the food in the bowl at a very fast speed.

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

I don’t know what Ling Ruonan said to Xie Enhua when he was packing the dishes. When the two of them cleaned up and walked to the sofa to sit down, Xie Enhua’s face became a little worse.

"Ling'er, did you beat Lin Jiaming today?" After sitting next to Luo Ziling, Xie Enhua asked in a low voice: "Have you injured someone?"

"Slap him twice and kick him to the wall," Luo Ziling answered honestly: "Who told him to scold me as a bastard in front of my mother."

"Oh," Xie Enhua sighed heavily, "It seems that things are getting more and more troublesome."

"Mom, it's all my fault," Ling Ruonan leaned against Xie Enhua, held his mother's arm, and admitted his mistake seriously. "Don't worry, I've already figured out how to tell my father. When my father comes back, I will explain this to him in person."

Xie Enhua didn't know how to answer Ling Ruonan's words at once. At this time, Luo Ziling spoke: "Grandma, I just don't want to see them bully my mother. I have grown up and my dad is not by my side. I have to take on the responsibility of protecting my mother. No matter who bullies my mother, I will not give up with him."

"Nan Nan, I want to hear how you are going to tell your father about this. I believe you both mother and son understand that your father is unwilling to let you continue to control the Northern Group. He is also afraid that you will turn the Northern Group into your own private territory and break away from the control of the Ling family."

Ling Ruonan could not have thought that his mother would ask this question directly. It was a bit surprised, but she did not refuse to answer. After hesitating, she replied: "Mom, I just can't stand others calculating me. I am not short of money, nor did I think of turning the Northern Group into my own private belongings. Ling'er said that he hoped to succeed through his own efforts and did not want to lie on the achievements of his predecessors to enjoy his success. Therefore, I did not think about competing with the people of the Ling family for control of the Northern Group. But the Northern Group grew and grew by my hands. If I wanted to drive me out of the Northern Group because of some interest disputes, I would not agree. This time, what Lin Jiaming and Ling Haining did was too despicable, so that they should learn the lesson they deserved, which was also worthy. Therefore, when Ling'er took the initiative to teach them a lesson, I did not stop it."

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

At this time, Ling Mingrui came back.
