The Young Urban Doctor - Chapter 270
Chapter 270: Chapter 270 Reason
“If I’m not mistaken, you’ve already seen your mother?” After sitting down in the living room downstairs, Ouyang Feifei went straight to the point and asked Luo Ziling, “Right?”

“Are you spying on me?” Luo Ziling couldn’t help but frown, his expression quite unfriendly.
“How could I?” Ouyang Feifei shook her head, “I was just guessing.”
Speaking of which, she looked at Luo Ziling again, smiled slightly, “Your eyes are a bit swollen, your expression was very absent when you arrived, not until you started treating Huihui that you calmed down. If nothing special had happened, you wouldn’t have changed like this. Something capable of causing such a change must be related to your mother.”
Hearing Ouyang Feifei analyze it like this, Luo Ziling was rendered speechless, but he didn’t deny it, “You’re right. We did meet tonight, I cried, and so did she.”
Relieved that Luo Ziling was willing to talk to her, Ouyang Feifei let out a sigh of relief, rarely showing a smile, then spoke softly again, “So I wanted to talk to you about something related to the Ling Family. There are some things your mother couldn’t possibly tell you, but I think you should know, so let me tell you.”
“What things?” Luo Ziling grew curious. He vaguely felt that Ouyang Feifei’s phone call for him to come and treat Ouyang Huihui was just an excuse, and the ultimate purpose was to discuss these matters with him. “Could it be that someone in the Ling Family is making things difficult for my mother?”

“It’s more than just making things difficult for her,” Ouyang Feifei said, staring intently at Luo Ziling without blinking, “Most people are against her, dissatisfied with her, including her own brother.”
“How so?” Luo Ziling couldn’t help but frown.
“Because of her resistance to the arranged marriage back then, it caused many troubles for the Ling Family and came with a high cost,” Ouyang Feifei said with an unchanged expression: “More importantly, your mother took a lot of resources from the Ling Family. The idea of male superiority will always exist; a daughter married off is like water poured out, and although your mother bears the Ling surname, in most people from the Ling Family’s eyes, she will eventually become someone else’s wife, she can’t always be a part of the Ling Family. What your mother now has originally belonged to the Ling Family’s men. Take, for example, the Northern Group, a multinational conglomerate worth hundreds of billions; she is currently in charge of it, and many are resentful towards her for just this reason.”
Ouyang Feifei’s words surprised Luo Ziling, and he subconsciously replied, “Meaning that in the Ouyang Family, many people also hold grudges against you, because you too will eventually marry someone with a different surname and leave the Ouyang Family, right?”
Luo Ziling’s words caught Ouyang Feifei off guard; she couldn’t believe that while she was uncharacteristically speaking so much, directly pointing out some key issues, Luo Ziling would jest at her, which made her somewhat angry.
But after thinking about it, she felt there was some truth in what Luo Ziling said and nodded in response, “Of course, there are many in the Ouyang Family who don’t agree with me, but I don’t care.”
“My mother probably has the same attitude as you,” Luo Ziling responded immediately.
“That’s different,” Ouyang Feifei shook her head, “Our Ouyang Family lacks outstanding men, my dad just loves to indulge in pleasures, so my grandpa reluctantly put the responsibility on me. But the Ling Family is different; it has many outstanding men. Your mother has a brother, Ling Zhengping, who is about to go to Jiangnan Province to take up a post. After this assignment, when he returns, he will surely rise even higher, possibly even taking over your grandfather’s position. Other men from the Ling Family may not be as capable as Ling Zhengping, but none are mediocre. What’s more crucial is…”
At that point, Ouyang Feifei stopped.
Actually, she was quite annoyed; today she had changed her usual demeanor and took the initiative to talk so much with Luo Ziling, about such important things, but he seemed unappreciative, acting indifferent.
Feeling her good intentions were unrewarded, she couldn’t help being upset.
“What’s the key point?” Seeing Ouyang Feifei stop at a crucial moment, Luo Ziling felt puzzled.

Noticing Luo Ziling’s eagerness, Ouyang Feifei then said, “Your uncle had been very good friends with Yang Yunfeng. He too hoped that your mother would marry Yang Yunfeng because that way he would have strong support from the Yang Family. When your father eloped with your mother, he was part of the pursuit. Moreover, he is the person most eager to take back control of the Northern Group from your mother.”
Luo Ziling listened in surprise and couldn’t help asking, “How do you know about these things?”
These were critical issues, family secrets to a certain extent; how had Ouyang Feifei come to learn of them?
“My grandfather asked me to tell you,” Ouyang Feifei revealed the source of the information frankly, “Actually, he was also one of the participants back then. If you don’t believe it, you can verify with your mother or Li Haiyang, even though they might not tell you much, but whether what I just said is true, they should acknowledge.”
After speaking so much, Ouyang Feifei felt her mouth getting sour and, after taking a sip of water, closed her mouth, not wanting to say much more.
After giving it some thought, Luo Ziling nodded, “I believe what you said and I know the infighting within the Ling Family is fierce, but I’m not clear on the specifics.”
Having said that, Luo Ziling asked another question, “Then do you know why the grudges from back then ultimately ended up like this?”
Ouyang Feifei didn’t answer, but just looked at Luo Ziling with slightly furrowed brows, full of confusion.
Ouyang Feifei was not as arrogantly indifferent as usual today, so she seemed much more lively, and her charm greatly increased in Luo Ziling’s eyes. The gesture he had just seen was particularly animated, with a real flair of girlishness, thus he didn’t mind that she hadn’t responded to his question.
“My father was sent to Tibet, I was taken back to Xinjiang by my grandfather, and my mother stayed in Yanjing. I know that originally the Yang Family wanted us dead, but the end result turned out like this. What are the real reasons?” Luo Ziling made the question he wanted to know more explicit.
“There are several reasons,” finally, Luo Ziling asked the question, and Ouyang Feifei couldn’t help feeling a bit smug, not holding back and replying right away, “The first reason is that your mother resisted fiercely, threatening to take the life of anyone who killed you; the second reason is the intervention of your maternal grandfather and Great Grandfather, they both doted on your mother and greatly appreciated your paternal grandfather, so they reached out to sort things, ensuring your dad wouldn’t die; another more important reason is…”
Stopping there, Ouyang Feifei once again paused as if leaving him in suspense.
