She’s Hard to Get - C274 The new realm of feigning illness
“Ouyang, in your heart, there is also the difference between a normal family and a rich family, right?”
When Ning Caier heard that Ouyang Jue had also mentioned the words “ordinary person”, she felt that it was extremely ear-piercing. He kept saying that he didn’t mind her origin, but in reality, he was constantly remembering, looks like half of what the Madame Ouyang said was true. All of the things that she didn’t care about right now, would eventually become the root of their conflict, and no one could escape from that.
“Cai’er, I don’t care what kind of background you have, but in reality, there is indeed a difference between a rich family and a commoner family. If your mother asks you to do something, it will be because she hopes that you won’t be rude to others in the future.”
When Ouyang Jue saw Ning Caier’s wronged look and thought that his mother had given her a lot of etiquette towards the Wealthy Class, she felt very uncomfortable. In fact, the etiquette towards the Wealthy Class was also very pretentious in his eyes.
This was especially so for the activities between famous ladies. It seemed like it was time-consuming and boring, but it was a way for them to connect the dots between each other. If Ning Caier wanted to become the young mistress of the Ouyang Family in the future, she would definitely use these things.
His mother used to spend hours making a cake or a cookie and then taking it out on the street to sell, in fact, just for the show to the press. The exposure of these positive images also helped to stabilize his image and further drive the company’s brand.
“Ouyang Jue, you also think that I am rude right?” Ning Caier suddenly sat up on the bed, she continuously coughed and looked very uncomfortable, just in time for the doctor to treat Ning Caier, so Ouyang Jue took the chance to change the topic, so as to prevent the two of them from continuing to argue about this matter.
“No master, Miss Ning is fine, it’s just that she lacks sleep due to the cold. Give her some cold medicine, she’ll be fine after a nap.”
The doctor of the Ouyang Family took out a small medicine bag from the medicine box and placed two pieces of white medicine on the side of Ning Caier’s bed. Every time he came to see a doctor, she would ask about the illness and bring over a few ingredients.
However, when Ning Caier saw these two pills, she was extremely hesitant. She did not know if this doctor was in cahoots with that Madame Ouyang, and what kind of medicine was this?
“I’ll eat later. You go out first, I want to be alone for a while.”
Ning Caier took the two pills in her hands but did not take them immediately. Instead, she covered herself with her blanket, looking depressed. She was afraid that this was another scheme of Madame Ouyang’s. So she crushed them under the covers and threw them through the cracks between the bed and the nightstand.
“Then you rest. I’ll have the doctor see my mother.”
Ouyang Jue felt that she was extremely strange today, but he didn’t dare to ask too much about the doctor. He could only leave the room with the doctor and give Ning Caier space to calm down. Moreover, he was very worried about his mother’s mental condition. She seemed to be living with some memory fragments, and since he had been invited over by a family doctor, he was naturally allowed to visit her in her room.
He had originally thought that doctors would only ask a few questions, but he didn’t think that he would stay inside for a whole half an hour. Ouyang Jue was originally sitting next to the sofa, but after seeing that the doctor wasn’t coming out after a long time, he stood directly at the door of his mother’s bedroom.
After a very long time, the doctor finally walked out of the room. He looked at Ouyang Jue’s somewhat heavy expression, and after closing the door tightly, he still couldn’t speak for a long time.
“What’s wrong with my mother? Do you need to go to the hospital now?” Seeing the doctor’s expression, Ouyang Jue knew that his mother’s condition wasn’t too good. But the current diagnosis was just a kind of facial examination, the specific data had to be checked at the hospital, it was too early to make the decision now.
He kept comforting himself in his heart, hoping that his mother wasn’t seriously ill. He had just brought her back, so he didn’t expect something to happen to her so soon.
“The Lady’s body is still considered healthy, but her memories of many things have changed a lot. I suspect that she has Azhymer’s disease s, which means that she has senile dementia.”
He did not understand why Madame Ouyang would issue such an order. Although Azhymer’s disease was mainly based on her judgement and it was not difficult to deceive Ouyang Jue, but she had returned this time with the goal of seizing power. If she was truly marked with such a label, then it would definitely be a disadvantage for her in seizing Heavenly Pride in the future.
However, he had been used to listening to Xia Wanru’s orders ever since she was young, so when Madame Ouyang told him to diagnose her as an early stage Azhymer’s disease, he had no way of refusing it.
“Why is it so serious!” When Ouyang Jue heard this, he immediately shouted out, but after that he anxiously looked at his mother’s room and quickly lowered his voice, “Are you sure, how did my mother get this disease?”
The reason why Ouyang Jue asked the doctor to examine his mother was just in case something was wrong, but he never thought that it would be the kind of outcome that he was most worried about, Azhymer’s disease had no way of healing his son, and could only delay his illness. Therefore, he paced around the living room anxiously, and did not know how to resolve the problem that had befallen him.
“No master, with Madam’s age, it is indeed a little early to get this disease. But she has been staying on the island for so many years, it is very likely that she has been worrying too much and caused this disease.”
Furthermore, Xia Wanru had said that she would use this illness to arouse Ouyang Jue’s guilt, so he attributed everything to the result of her many years of living on the island. As expected, this matter had the best impact on her heart.
“I should have brought my mother back earlier. If she had come back earlier, she wouldn’t have done this.”
After Ouyang Jue heard the result, he used his hand to cover his eyes, not wanting others to see the tears in his eyes. He had always thought that putting the Madame Ouyang on the island would be beneficial to her sickness.
If he had not been preoccupied with the business with the TiaoAo Group and had instead gone to the sea island to accompany her, his mother might not have been this sick.
“You can leave. I’ll take my mother to the hospital for a checkup tomorrow.” Ouyang Jue turned his back, and waved for the doctor to leave. He would find a cure specialized hospital to send his mother over, and try his best to stabilize her condition.
“No master, the best thing for the Madam to do now is to stay home and recuperate. What she lacks is the company of her family, if she were to be sent to the hospital, the situation would be even worse.”
The moment the family doctor heard that Ouyang Jue was going to send Madame Ouyang away, she immediately stopped him, and now that she had finally come into contact with the core of Ouyang Family, she definitely could not leave. Fortunately, Ouyang Jue had heard his words, and temporarily gave up on sending him to the hospital.
It was just that he had been in the living room all night, not knowing what to do next. He had thought that everything would turn out well once he brought his mother back from the nursing home, but now he was under even greater pressure.
He, who rarely smoked in his room, had actually smoked for an entire night. He took out his phone and discovered that the person he wanted to discuss with the most was actually not Ning Caier but Xu Mengyun.
Cai’er’s current mood fluctuation was too great for discussing such a big matter with her, but if it was the Miss Xu, she would definitely be able to give the most calm and rational analysis at this moment, and help her mother find the best solution.
In the past, Xu Mengyun would not sleep at this time, but now that she was married to Ling Tian, they had to take into account the habits of two people.
But his finger still couldn’t help but press on it, and the moment the phone connected, Ling Tian’s voice came out.
“Ouyang, what’s the matter? Why are you calling me so late at night?” Ling Tian remained calm when he received the call. He knew that if Ouyang Jue had any other thoughts, he would definitely not call him in the middle of the night. He was afraid that something huge had happened that caused him to ignore it.
“Mengyun is now bathing, if there’s anything you need you can tell me, is it Madame Ouyang who needs any help?” Ling Tian had instinctively believed that this matter was related to the old lady, so he did not want Xu Mengyun to pick up the phone. If the old lady wanted to change the Xu’s’s Cooperation cases, he could totally say “NO” on behalf of Xu Mengyun.
“Actually, it’s just a small matter. I’ll call Madam Ling tomorrow.” Ouyang Jue hesitated for a while, before deciding to hide his mother’s illness. TiaoAo Group was already in a mess, if this matter were to spread to the media, they would become even more confused.
“Since it’s a small matter, it doesn’t matter even if I know. It’s better to speak, otherwise, I won’t be able to sleep tonight.” Ling Tian immediately sealed off the chance of Ouyang Jue and him talking on the phone, regardless of whether it was a business or private matter, he had to isolate Xu Mengyun. Now that Ouyang Jue only had two choices, either tell him about it, or talk about it with him and Xu Mengyun.
“Then I’ll let you sleep tonight. There’s no need to trouble Mengyun, I can take care of this myself.” Ouyang Jue could feel Ling Tian’s vigilance towards him, this person who could shake the world was actually just a jealous person, a person who could touch even the slightest bit of movements in the wind and grass could easily touch his sensitive nerves.
He hung up the call, but felt that it was unnecessary to make a call, afraid that not only would his own problems not be solved, but he would also harm Xu Mengyun. Only then did Ouyang Jue realize that something was amiss, but he could no longer make another call, otherwise, this would only become more and more troublesome.
“Madame Ouyang sure is quick. It’s only the first day and she’s already in such a difficult situation. I wonder how she’s going to live in the future.”
When Ling Tian answered the phone, she had been lying on the side reading the book. She was worried that he would not be able to reject Ouyang Jue’s request, so he let Ling Tian pick up the phone. As expected, this matter was related to the Madame Ouyang, and listening to Ouyang Jue’s tone, it was hard to say what would happen.
“This woman isn’t easy to deal with. Your phone will be mine in the next two days. If you have any problems, I’ll help you block it.” Ling Tian casually stuffed the phone back into his robe, but Xu Mengyun did not stop his. After all, he was annoyed by dealing with favors the most, but she had set a time limit for this matter, something that could only be done at night.
