She’s Hard to Get - C269 Super-high acting

It was not easy for her to have the opportunity to make a comeback. How could she possibly spend the rest of her life in a sanatorium?

Flash lights kept hitting her face, making her feel good. She liked the feeling of being the center of attention. This feeling made her feel that she was placed in the center of the world, making her extremely happy.

“Mother!” Ouyang Jue was shocked by her actions and immediately ran out to chase after his, blocking Xia Wanru behind him. There were a lot more reporters now than in the past, and they were even more out of control now, which was not something Xia Wanru could handle.

“Madame Ouyang, did you suddenly come back this time because of the serious illness of Old Mr. Ouyang? Do you want me to reshuffle the cards!”

The reporter screamed, hoping that the once wealthy young miss would be able to say a word or two. Back then, Madame Ouyang was a renowned beauty in the business world, a master who came to negotiate with her, not losing out to the current, but she was much more gentle than her, and would often bite off a large piece of other people’s meat mercilessly.

It was a pity that she never appeared in the business battles again after she got married, and only met a couple peacefully at home. This kind of ending made people feel that it was a pity, so when she came back, everyone looked forward to seeing her in TiaoAo Group.

I came here this time just to accompany my son. When I get old, living on the island will inevitably make me feel a little depressed. A Jue is already the CEO of Tian Ao.

Madame Ouyang replied easily to the reporters’ questions. She described this incident as a normal family gathering and did not have any ulterior motives. This argument seemed to answer everything, but it also seemed as if nothing had been said. This caused the group of reporters who had been waiting for a long time to feel unsatisfied.

“We will hold a press conference later. If you have any questions, you can ask them at the press conference.” Xia Wanru brought Ouyang Jue back to the car, and when the reporters heard that there was a press conference, they were finally allowed to go.

He had also heard about her abilities in the business world before, but that era was really too patriarchal, and no one would care about the achievements a woman made. Thus, from the moment Ouyang Jue could still remember, his mother had stayed at home all year round to take care of him and Ouyang Gu’s lives.

What happened to his mother before gradually became a legend. If these reporters didn’t mention that he had almost forgotten that his mother was also a female war god, but he had never seen his mother in the business world before. In his eyes, his mother’s face was full of worry.

“Mother, what will you publish at the press conference?” After the car had reached a safe distance, Ouyang Jue dared to voice out his suspicions. His original plan was to send his mother to a sanatorium to continue recuperating.

Since his mother said that she came back to see her son, she would definitely live with him in the Ouyang manor. However, that place was where all the reporters had to go, so his wish to have his mother rest was no longer possible. However, he wanted to know what his mother wanted to say, even if she wanted to say the grievances she had suffered on the island, he would support her.

“I don’t know either. I was just making an excuse to let us leave and think of something. When the time comes, just say whatever you want.”

Xia Wanru purposely pretended not to intervene in the company’s affairs and handed everything over to Ouyang Jue. After being the CEO for so long, it was not difficult for him to answer a few questions in front of the reporters. If she was needed, she could show up.

“I know Mother, rest well after you return home. I will naturally take care of other matters.” Ouyang Jue felt that he had become anxious and confused. He actually did not expect that such a simple matter would occur, his mother had always been defending her family’s reputation. She would never say a word about it, and would only silently endure all of the grievances.

“A Jue, now you can tell me exactly what happened to your father. From the tone of those reporters, he definitely isn’t as simple as just pneumonia.”

Xia Wanru’s face suddenly looked extremely gloomy. Previously, Ouyang Jue had told her that Ouyang Gu had been hospitalized with pneumonia and had never called the sanatorium, nor had he visited her. But now, everything had been exposed by the reporters, so she asked her son to tell her the truth, even though she already knew about it.

“Something did happen to Father, but the doctor said it could be cured.”

Ouyang Jue told her the truth of the matter. He tried his best to choose a few words that were more acceptable and told her mother, afraid that she would receive too big of a shock, the truth basically matched the information Xia Wanru had received back then. She felt that Ouyang Gu deserved it.

But she had to behave as if she had just received the news, and immediately closed her eyes when she heard it, and could not help but cry out in pain.

“What a sin, what a sin!” Xia Wanru continuously pounded on the car seat, wishing that she could use her head to smash into the seat in front of him. Ouyang Jue quickly stopped her, he was afraid of his mother becoming like this so he didn’t dare to speak the truth, but he didn’t expect that after such a long time, her mother was still so excited.

“Which hospital is he in? I’m going to see him now.” Xia Wanru continued to wail inside the carriage, the tears in her eyes could not be stopped, the young miss who was able to scheme just a moment ago had already turned into an ordinary woman, “He still doesn’t return what she owed me, how can she be sick!”

Xia Wanru’s reaction was exactly as Ouyang Jue had expected. He could only comfort her slowly, “Mother, it’s too late today. You should rest first, we’ll go see father tomorrow.”

Ouyang Jue had practically used his own body to trap Xia Wanru, so as to not let her injure him. Fortunately, the surrounding windows were all tinted brown, and no one could see their appearance.

The group walked out of the airport for an hour before arriving at Ouyang Family’s mansion. The cars beside them were all a good cover for Xia Wanru, allowing her to safely enter the Ouyang Family’s mansion.

Ouyang Jue opened the car door and personally helped his mother down. Xia Wanru, who was already staggering slightly, had difficulty even standing up now. Her originally neatly combed hair was already in a mess, and her eyes were red and swollen.

“Mother, we are home. It’s alright.” Ouyang Jue was panicking, his hand was holding onto Xia Wanru’s body from start to finish, but her legs were extremely weak. Looking at the Ouyang Family Palace which she had been unable to return to for more than ten years, her expression was even more pained than before.

“Mother!” He immediately had the servant find the doctor, and carried his mother back to Ouyang Gu’s room. Ouyang Gu had already become extremely human, he definitely could not let anything happen to his mother again.

“Lao Wu, is this true?”

All the people in the big house were extremely nervous, only Ning Caier was standing in the courtyard blankly. This was because she really could not tell whether Madame Ouyang was really sick, or was just acting out a play.

The doctor’s diagnosis could still be considered optimistic, he said that Xia Wanru had only fainted because she had suffered from a huge shock due to her weak body. It’s just that she had to rest well, and during this period of time, she could not let her emotions be affected too much, otherwise, it would lead to other, more serious problems.

This doctor was Ouyang Family’s family doctor, and had specially checked Ouyang Gu’s body in the past. Thus, everyone believed in his words, and other than Ning Caier, she had been wandering around the entire time, hoping to clearly see the truth behind this matter. However, her skills were too shallow, and everyone in the Ouyang family was smarter than her, so how could she understand what he meant.

Xia Wanru didn’t lose consciousness for long, she woke up about half an hour later. The moment she opened her eyes, she wanted to find his own son, so Ouyang Jue hurriedly walked over and held her hands, letting his mother feel his presence.

“Mother, I’m here. It’s fine. You’ve returned home.”

This doctor had been their family doctor since he was young, and was also the most familiar with the matters of Ouyang Family. He hoped that her mother would do her best to meet some familiar people so that she could get used to the life here.

But this arrangement didn’t seem to have any effect, because as her mother lied on this huge bed, she felt extremely disgusted just by thinking of how many women Ouyang Gu had once been on this huge bed, and wanted to rub off the skin all over her body.

“Mother, this bed has been changed, no one has slept on it, everything else is new.”

Ouyang Jue knew about Xia Wanru’s obsession with cleanliness, so after Ouyang Gu was hospitalized, he changed everything in the room. She was afraid that she would suddenly think of coming to this bedroom to take a look, but actually, in the past ten years since she had left home, Ouyang Gu had already changed the decorations several times.

He wanted to leave behind an illusion for Xia Wanru that her father was still nostalgic. He still retained the past and remembered their past relationship, but she never expected things to develop to this extent and had no choice but to tell Xia Wanru the truth. He felt like a child in front of her mother. No matter how meticulous his plans were, they would all become chaotic.

“Thank you.” Xia Wanru said weakly. Of course she was fine, but that doctor at the family who had admired her for so many years naturally understood her thoughts, so she didn’t need to say anything. That doctor would naturally tell Ouyang Jue what she thought. Right now, her illness was the reason why she was causing trouble at home. It was also the reason why she was controlling his son’s weight.

“Mother, why are you being so courteous with me? I’m your son, I should do anything for you.”

Xia Wanru’s words made Ouyang Jue’s heart ache. All these years, she had always been trying to not trouble others, and even if the life on the island was not easy for her, she had never told him about it.

“Then marry as soon as you can. Your father is already sick, and my body is like this. If I can see you getting married, I would feel relieved even if I were to leave. That girl who came to fetch me should be your lover, right?”

Xia Wanru had threatened her so many times that she was unable to separate from Ouyang Jue, so this little bit of verbal violence naturally wouldn’t be of any use. As long as Ouyang Jue could console her a little, this woman would take the opportunity to stay by his side, and even cause some trouble for him.
