Seeing that things were indeed slowly returning to normal, Luo Shi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Your health has been poor, so why don't you stay in China for a while to recuperate? I will also be staying in China for the next few days."
Luo Shi said, "Father already knows about today's events, and he has already handed over your work to others."
Luo Ling looked somewhat helpless: "I'm really fine."
"It's always good to rest for a couple more days."
Seeing her nephew's insistence, Luo Ling had no choice but to nod and say, "Okay."

Shelley quickly uncovered Liang Wanyin's background.
"Liang Wanyin has always maintained the persona of a rich family's little princess. Just like everyone says, she danced with the prince of V country at the age of 19 and always stood in the center position among many world-class socialites at the ball. However, I found out that she confessed her feelings to Mr. Gu when she was 20 years old."
Ji Zhinan's attention was immediately drawn to Shelley's last sentence: "Yi Bei?"
“Yes.” Shelley nodded: “A small group of people in the circle know about this. I heard that Liang Wanyin liked Young Master Gu when she was fifteen or sixteen years old and has been pursuing him ever since. She proposed to him when she was 20 but was rejected. She didn’t give up and has never given up…”
After hearing this, Ji Zhinan still had something to understand.
No wonder that environmentalist heiress was giving her the cold shoulder; she'd fallen for her man.
Before meeting Ji Zhinan, Gu Yibei's whereabouts were unstable, often in China, sometimes in Y country, and the rest of the time traveling around the world for work. However, after getting together with Ji Zhinan, he changed his job and stayed in China more often.
Later they got engaged in a high-profile manner...
It wasn't until recently, when her identity as Mrs. Gu was exposed, that people in Beijing realized that Gu Yibei's cherished fiancée was actually Ji Zhinan...
Thinking back to how ZN's previous collaboration with Shengyao Group was suddenly snatched away by Greenland Group, which seemed to have happened shortly after she exposed her true identity, now that I think about it, it was probably Liang Wanyin who did it.
"I see." Ji Zhinan grinned.
I didn't want to argue with her, since it would be a waste of my time.
Since it's her man's unwanted romantic advances, the only option is to nip it in the bud.

The weather in Beijing has gradually turned cold in November; so much time has passed without us realizing it.
When the family of four sat down for breakfast in the morning, Eddie took the initiative to start a conversation.
"When Yibei and I went for our morning run today, we thought we saw workers carrying luggage into Villa No. 4."
This is a high-end residential area newly built by Beijing Huaguo a few years ago. It is excellent in terms of location, feng shui, and other aspects. Because each villa occupies a very large area, there are only four villas here.
Li Yuan initially thought this place was nice, so he seized three villas. Villa No. 1 was where he and Ji Zhinan lived, Villa No. 3 was Eddie's home, and Villa No. 2 was taken by that bastard Gu Yibei... cough cough, by his handsome son-in-law Gu Yibei.
There is one villa left, number four, which has remained unoccupied.
Eddie brought up the topic very casually, and Ji Zhinan simply agreed before moving on. After the family of four finished their meal, they all went about their own business.
Li Yuan held a meeting in the room for three or four hours. After it ended, he had back pain from sitting there for so long.
Charles brought up the soup cooked by the maid and noticed that Li Yuan was constantly rubbing his lower back, which made him a little worried.
