She’s Hard to Get - C284 Two men's heartfelt words
But he felt that Xu Mengyun was very different tonight. Tonight, it was simply an unfathomable darkness for Ouyang Jue, and perhaps he had never encountered such a situation before. What he encountered today was not difficulty, but rather, the collapse of his faith.
Even if Ouyang Jue wasn’t her lover, he would at least still be his friend. He was in such a predicament today that even he wanted to pity her, but Xu Mengyun actually didn’t put him first. It really wasn’t her usual style.
“We have already taken care of the matters of the Ouyang Family very deeply already, the things that happened afterwards are not something we can control, so now we have to be happy and happy. I don’t want to be like that Madame Ouyang, lonely on an island, forever growing old.”
If not for the servant who called to tell her that Ouyang Jue had waited downstairs for half an hour, she did not want to stop at all. She did not want to become a woman like Xia Wanru, she was like a dried up vine that could be broken at any time.
“I’ll go down for a while first. We’ll play in the second half when we get back.” Ling Tian kissed Xu Mengyun on the lips and finally covered herself with a piece of clothes before reluctantly walking out of the room. Now, he had changed her mind and decided to knock Ouyang Jue out within ten minutes, so as to prevent the warmth between him and Xu Mengyun from fading away.
“Come back tomorrow for the second half. I’m going to sleep. Do your job well.” When Ling Tian walked out of the room, he did not forget to throw a pillow on top of his body. Within ten minutes, unless it was drugged, he did not want the Xu Family to leave such an impression on others.
“I’m flattered that the Mr. Ling is able to come personally to accompany me in drinks. I wonder how much the Mr. Ling would charge me for it? It’s too expensive, I can’t afford it. Right now, I’m completely broke.”
Xu Mengyun’s voice was heard by Ouyang Jue downstairs, so he couldn’t help but mock Ling Tian when she saw him. At this moment, he had already finished half of the bottle of Lafite, but she did not look drunk at all. Instead, she became more sober the more she drank.
He had quarreled with Ouyang Gu for more than ten years, so even if they had broken off, he did not feel much about it. But his mother was different, today, after he had left his home, he was truly alone, not to mention, alone with nothing.
“Since you don’t even have the money to accompany me in drinking, then you must have come here to swindle us into drinking.”
Seeing that Ouyang Jue was drinking directly from the bottle, Ling Tian immediately snatched the bottle from him. Drinking the red wine like that was simply a waste, it was no different from drinking medical alcohol directly. His mission today was to be Ouyang Jue’s life mentor, not to use force to suppress a drunk madman.
“What do you want to talk to me about? Don’t get drunk before you start talking. Tomorrow, you’ll have to come over to my place to receive life guidance.”
Ling Tian used his eyes to inspect Ouyang Jue’s mental state. Fortunately, his mental state today was considered normal and only a little low, so the alcohol was still useful. Otherwise, Ouyang Jue would have been completely depressed and depressed.
“I came to your house to swindle wine. Right now, I am poor, especially poor.”
Ouyang Jue snatched the bottle away. He glanced at the Ling Tian who was still steaming hot and knew what he and Xu Mengyun were doing in the room, so he raised the bottle in his hands and drank it all in one gulp. The feeling of this bottle of wine had indeed improved a little, at least his body was currently hot, and it was not as cold as it was in the Ouyang manor.
“We run small businesses here, so we can’t take credit.” When Ling Tian saw that Ouyang Jue was still in the mood to joke, he immediately agreed to it, because he saw that Xu Mengyun had already donned her pajamas and was standing at the foot of the stairs, so he had to perform well, in case her benefits were cancelled by Xu Mengyun in the second half.
“Actually, you should treat me to a drink today. Madam Ling must be really glad that she didn’t marry into Ouyang Family, otherwise, this would definitely be a fire pit.”
Ouyang Jue had always been worried that Xu Mengyun and his subordinate were acting in front of him, but when he came in, he saw that the servant of the Xu Family and Ling Tian’s subordinate got along leisurely. From the way the two of them got along, she could tell that Xu Mengyun and Ling Tian’s relationship was not bad.
He was glad that his best friend had found such a good home, but he also felt a faint sense of loss, as if there was no one in this world who was his lifeline anymore. Right now, he could not see the atmosphere filled with enthusiasm, especially when Ling Tian’s pores were emitting a coquettish aura, it was out of place with his current state of mind.
Although Ouyang Jue did not love her, he understood her thoughts. What she was afraid of the most was this kind of trouble, if she were to marry into the Ouyang Family, she would definitely get a divorce because of this Madame Ouyang.
“It’s fine to buy you a drink, but there’s one thing I need to make clear first. Meng Yun isn’t glad that she didn’t marry into the Ouyang Family from today onwards, but was glad that she didn’t do so from the day she married me.”
Ling Tian chose him because of his charm, not because he did not have that troublesome mother. This matter was extremely important to Ling Tian, and he absolutely could not allow Ouyang Jue to confuse the crowd here, otherwise he would have thought that he did not win over Ouyang Jue, but rather, that he had won over an old lady.
However, there was one thing he wasn’t mistaken about, which was that he was indeed in a good mood today. Therefore, even if Ouyang Jue said anything, he would still welcome him in a carefree manner, because he knew that from today onwards, he would truly win.
“I know you’re living a happy life right now. Hurry up and bring me to drink. I need to get drunk today.”
Ouyang Jue could feel that confidence that came from the bottom of his heart. He had been a inner demon for a long time and now that the inner demon no longer existed, even Ling Tian’s expression became gentler. He was no longer as highly alert as he was before.
It was just that he was not in the mood to share Ling Tian’s day’s experience, so he only wanted to use enough alcohol to numb his nerves and make him forget this incomparably dark day …
Although Xu Mengyun did not like drinking alcohol, in order to deal with her family’s elders and some visiting customers, she had stored a lot of high-end red wine in her house. She also had a very professional wine awakening tool and a soft sofa for drinking alcohol, which would definitely allow her to relax to the greatest extent.
It was just that the majority of the wine stored here was red wine and it was not easy to get drunk from drinking this kind of wine, so it did not have much effect on Ouyang Jue drinking two bottles at all. He could not help but feel a little bored.
“Do you have higher degrees? Don’t you usually like red bars? ”
Ouyang Jue rummaged through the wine cellar. The Xu Family’s cellar was so big, it didn’t even have a single bottle of whisky. He remembered that Ling Tian usually liked to drink strong alcohol.
The majestic Xu Family wine cellar did not even have as much wine as a bar, it did not even have the most ordinary beer or white wine, this was too illogical. Even if Xu Mengyun liked this kind of emotional stuff, but at least it had to be a little booze that refreshed him.
“I’ve already quit drinking. Being able to drink with you today can already be considered as risking my life to accompany you, your highness. You might get divorced at any time. How about it? You have enough loyalty, right?”
Ever since Ling Tian entered the wine cellar, a cup was placed in front of him. However, for a long time, he did not even manage to touch the skin of his mouth, and only sat there and chatted with Ouyang Jue, watching him continuously pour wine into his mouth, and watched as he drank that good wine. He would definitely not be able to rest in peace even after death.
“Withdraw from alcohol?” You can also stop drinking. I heard that you were never drunk before, and Meng Yun wasn’t so stingy. You stayed with me for a whole night, not a whole night with a woman. ”
Ouyang Jue felt that Ling Tian was too insincere today. Although the two of them could not be considered good brothers, but even if they were customers, he had to at least have some form of courtesy to accompany them. Right now, he was not even given the treatment of a customer, he really treated as if he was trying to trick him into drinking wine.
“Who wouldn’t get drunk? They just got drunk two days ago and made a mess, so now we have to take care of our health or else Meng Yun will really get angry.”
Although Ling Tian’s tone was filled with self-pity, the expression on his face was extremely obvious, and completely showed off. Furthermore, he knew that Xu Mengyun had lowered her bottom line many times just because of him. This was how much she cared about this marriage, and was also Ling Tian’s bargaining chip that was worth being proud of.
“Even if it’s a love story, I won’t listen to it right now.”
Ouyang Jue originally wanted to chat with him, but now, he didn’t want to say anything anymore. They were both women from a rich and powerful family, yet Xu Mengyun was able to do it on her own.
He only told his mother that he might change the way he worked with the Xu’s after she took over the position. It would be best for them to make some preparations first since they were friends and he didn’t want anything to happen to the Xu Group.
“The internal conflict in your Ouyang Family is too fierce, and every time, it would involve us as training partners. Once these Cooperation cases are done, I will definitely not let Mengyun cooperate with you anymore, and dealing with this matter will take even longer than preparation time.”
When Ling Tian mentioned this matter, Ling Tian felt a headache. Although they could be very resolute in their stance, being persuaded by this mosquito-like voice every day, they were extremely unhappy in their hearts. They wished that they could immediately stop these Cooperation cases s and devote their energy to other places.
However, Ling Tian had a different idea today. Since Ouyang Jue was the only one in the Ouyang Family who supported cooperation with the Xu’s, it would be best for them to keep Ouyang Jue in a higher position, so he advised Ouyang Jue to stay in the position of CEO and not leave the entire TiaoAo Group for Xia Wanru to handle.
“I can’t face my mother. She even lied to my feelings. I really can’t accept being together with her every day. Even if I have to act like I’m her superior, I can’t do anything about it.”
He knew that if he were to ask 99 people in one hundred, they would all think the same way. He was the only son of the Ouyang Family, and as long as he maintained this position, all of his possessions would sooner or later be his. However, right now, he couldn’t see his own mother, and only a glance would allow him to think of the disgusting things that happened behind his back.
