"Mom, why was Great Grandfather so generous this time?" Luo Ziling asked Ling Ruonan puzzledly on the ride back.
"I don't know either," Ling Ruonan shook her head, "I was already quite surprised that he agreed to give us the entire Northern Group. Among the Ling Family, he is the one most unwilling to hand over the Northern Group to me. The Northern Group is the Ling Family's most significant commercial asset. If it's removed from the Ling Family, their wealth would shrink by at least one-third. Unexpectedly, he agreed to give us the Northern Group and also agreed to have your dad return to Yanjing soon."
"Actually, these aren't new requests. They promised this long ago. Bringing it up today was just to push the schedule forward." Luo Ziling smiled at Ling Ruonan, "We could have demanded more. I think we were too timid today."
