"Really?" Luo Ling glanced at Ji Zhinan with interest.
“Yes.” Luo Shi nodded: “ZN was built by her alone, and Young Master Gu did not help her behind the scenes.”
"So you're the boss of ZN." Luo Ling suddenly realized, "I'd heard Luo Shi mention this company before, but I never had time to look into it. I never imagined that the person in charge would be you, girl."
She nodded approvingly: "Very capable."
"No way," Ji Zhinan said calmly. "Compared to you, I'm just a child playing house."
Luo Ling smiled.
“Aunt,” Luo Shi said, “Mr. Oliver Ellsworth has arrived.”
Luo Shi was referring to the name of a famous person in the world, and it was because of him that Luo Ling was here.
Luo Ling immediately asked, "Where is he?"
"Mr. Oliver is already waiting for you upstairs."
"I see."
After saying that, she looked at Ji Zhinan and smiled again: "I have things to do here, so I won't talk to you anymore."
"Oh, right."
Thinking of something, she continued, "I'll be staying in China for a while, and since this is my first time here, I don't know where's worth visiting. If Zhi Nan doesn't mind..."
“Of course.” Ji Zhinan couldn’t bring herself to refuse. She looked at Luo Ling, her voice serious and hoarse: “Madam Luo can come to me anytime.”
I don't know why, but I always feel a bit of a sense of oppression.
Luo Ling smiled, nodded to her, and then left.
Luo Shi nodded and followed Luo Ling, leaving Ji Zhinan alone.
She turned her head and stared blankly at the wine bottle and two used wine glasses on the table.
…………
Upstairs, Oliver Ellsworth has arrived.
"Mr. Oliver."
Oliver saw Luo Ling and quickly stood up to shake her hand: "Mrs. Luo."
After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the two sat down. Oliver joked, "I didn't see Mrs. Lowe earlier, so I thought she wasn't here."
Luo Ling merely curled the corners of her lips into a faint smile, her expression very formal: "I was downstairs just now."
After exchanging a few more casual words, the two quickly got down to business.
………
Luo Ling has always been a workaholic. She devoted all her time to the Luo family and helped her brother Luo Yan stabilize the family.
Once she gets into work mode, she's a complete workaholic. She won't give herself a chance to daydream or slack off unless she's almost finished with the task.
This was the first time she had ever been distracted while discussing serious business.
She didn't hear a word Oliver said beside her; the scene from earlier kept replaying in her mind, and Ji Zhinan's pleasant voice was playing in her ears.
【Zhinan. 】
[Ji Zhinan.]
Zhinan...
The two words were repeated in her mind, and in the end, all she could hear were the sounds of those two words.
Her head was throbbing slightly, and she pressed her forehead, frowning.
I haven't had a headache in a long time.
As Oliver was talking, he noticed that Luo Ling wasn't listening. Seeing that her expression was a little off, he tentatively called out to her.
"Mrs. Luo?"
Luo Ling looked up, her face somewhat pale.
"I'm fine."
Noticing there wasn't even a glass of water on the table, she said, "Mr. Oliver must be thirsty after talking so much. Let me pour him a glass of water."
As she spoke, she stood up.
But before he could take two steps, his legs suddenly gave way, and he stumbled and fell to the ground.
