Chapter 213 - 213 Mr. Chen
“Why? You should know about these things,” Luo Ziling said, his face a picture of surprise.
“Actually, I’m not clear on the details,” Ouyang Feifei turned her head and looked at Luo Ziling earnestly, “I only heard a little from my grandfather, and I can’t guarantee the authenticity of it. Also, your mother doesn’t want me to tell you about their affairs. Perhaps she will tell you herself in the future.”
Ouyang Feifei’s words immediately made Luo Ziling very gloomy, and he suddenly lost all enthusiasm.
Seeing Luo Ziling’s expression, Ouyang Feifei felt somewhat guilty and said gently, “Because of the events back then, the Ling and Yang families have a poor relationship. Although they haven’t openly broken ties, there has been almost no close interaction between the older and younger generations. Yang Qingyin also hasn’t had any contact with the younger generations of the Ling family; they’ve kept their distance.”
“Can you tell me more details?” Luo Ziling was pleasantly surprised when Ouyang Feifei spoke about these things after her refusal.
Ouyang Feifei shook her head, “I can’t say more, please forgive me.”
Ouyang Feifei didn’t treat him with the same arrogance as before, and she wasn’t as sparing with her words, which made Luo Ziling feel much better.
He felt embarrassed to ask further and thought of what Ouyang Huihui had told him yesterday. He immediately asked Ouyang Feifei, “How are things going with Li Dongjun and Li Jiaqing? Your sister wanted to talk to me about it yesterday, but I didn’t have time. Today I told her to come over to your place, so we can discuss it together.”
Ouyang Feifei glanced at Luo Ziling and said indifferently, “Okay, I’ll have her come over in a bit.”
As she said these words, Ouyang Feifei returned to her usual demeanor.
“Alright,” Luo Ziling agreed and didn’t ask any further.
About twenty minutes later, they arrived at Ouyang Feifei’s office.
This building, named “Lingyun Building,” was named after Ouyang Lingyun. It was a very tall building, with at least seventy or eighty floors.
“This is the headquarters of Ouyang Lingyun Group,” Ouyang Feifei took the initiative to explain to Luo Ziling while entering the private elevator, “It was built by my grandfather when he was in charge of the family affairs and was named after him. If you have any matters in the future, you can come directly here to find me.”
Hearing Ouyang Feifei say this, Wang Qing, who had been standing quietly to the side without a word, couldn’t help but look up in astonishment at Ouyang Feifei.
“Alright,” Luo Ziling did not reject Ouyang Feifei’s kind offer.
Ouyang Feifei’s private elevator was not very large, it could at most hold six or seven people. Standing together with three people, Luo Ziling felt it was a bit cramped. He was flanked by two incredibly beautiful women, and their scent was pleasant to smell. Standing so close, he could even see the fine details on their faces, which made him a bit embarrassed.
Fortunately, the elevator reached the floor where Ouyang Feifei’s office was located very quickly.
The elevator doors opened, and the uncomfortable feeling immediately dissipated.
Wang Qing went out first, and Luo Ziling followed Ouyang Feifei out of the elevator.
As soon as he stepped out of the elevator, a professional-looking beauty in a suit approached them, “President, Mr. Chen Jiahai from the Chen family is in the meeting room waiting for you. He says he has important matters to discuss.”
Ouyang Feifei furrowed her brows slightly upon hearing this, displeased, she said, “Tell him that I’m very busy today and don’t have time to meet with him.”
“Yes, President,” the beautiful girl respectfully replied, and then went to convey the message.
While speaking with Ouyang Feifei, she caught a glimpse of Luo Ziling standing behind Ouyang Feifei, and couldn’t help but be greatly surprised.
This receptionist at President Ouyang Feifei’s office had never seen their president come to the office accompanied by a man.
In their eyes, the president had never traveled with a man, let alone bring one to the company.
Who could this man following Ouyang Feifei be, and what was his relationship with Ouyang Feifei? The secretary was filled with curiosity.
Ouyang Feifei led Luo Ziling directly to her office, but before they reached it, a young man dressed impeccably, looking handsome, tall, and visibly of high status in every aspect, came out from the meeting room nearby. Spotting Ouyang Feifei, he quickly came over with a smile to greet her.
“Feifei,” the handsome man came over to Ouyang Feifei and greeted her affectionately, then said gently, “I haven’t come to see you for several days; I took the chance today to come and take a look.”
He also nodded towards Wang Qing, who stood at Ouyang Feifei’s side, and said very politely, “Wang Qing has become even more beautiful. Every time I see you both, I am amazed.”
He also noticed Luo Ziling standing behind Ouyang Feifei, and after a moment of surprise, he nodded to Luo Ziling as well, but did not speak.
“Chen Jiahai, I’m sorry, but I don’t have time to entertain you today,” Ouyang Feifei said expressionlessly to the man, “If you need anything, contact me after I’m done with work.”
Ouyang Feifei rejected him bluntly in front of so many people. Chen Jiahai couldn’t hide his surprise, but after a brief pause, he revealed a smile again, “Then you go ahead with your work. I’m free today, so I’ll just slowly enjoy some tea here. After you finish work today, let me treat you to dinner. We’ll go have Tan’s cuisine.”
Seeing the man named Chen Jiahai talk to Ouyang Feifei in such a manner, Luo Ziling, who was completely ignored in the background, instantly felt uncomfortable. Noticing Ouyang Feifei’s frown, he couldn’t help but step forward and said to Chen Jiahai, “I’m sorry, but Feifei has already promised to have dinner with me tonight. Perhaps you could arrange another time to meet her.”
Chen Jiahai was taken aback, not expecting the seemingly green young man behind Ouyang Feifei to step forward and speak to him in such a manner.
Ouyang Feifei, too, did not expect Luo Ziling to suddenly step forward and help her out. She was briefly taken aback but quickly caught on and immediately went along with Luo Ziling’s intent, “I’m taking him out for dinner tonight. Let’s make another appointment in a few days.”
As Ouyang Feifei spoke, Chen Jiahai’s face color changed suddenly, and he looked at Luo Ziling, furrowing his brows slightly, seemingly unable to believe what was happening.
Luo Ziling stood firmly and confidently, giving Chen Jiahai a slight smile without saying a word.
Chen Jiahai also quickly regained his composure, the unusual expression on his face disappeared in an instant, and he said with a smile to Ouyang Feifei, “Since you’re treating him to dinner today, then I won’t disturb you any longer. I’ll come to see you another day. I’ll take my leave now. Goodbye, Wang Qing.”
With that, he nodded to Luo Ziling again and left with steady, forceful steps.
Watching Chen Jiahai enter the elevator, Ouyang Feifei looked at Luo Ziling with a complex expression, not saying a word, and entered her office.
Luo Ziling immediately followed her in.
