She’s Hard to Get - C285 to be persuaded to eat a full meal
“As a Wealthy Class person, you must be able to endure it, and you must not leave, if not, you won’t immediately return to the TiaoAo Group because something happened to Ouyang Gu. Your mother will be the same, if she can’t control the guild anymore, you will definitely go back and help her, so it would be better if you don’t leave, so that all of the partners don’t think that the TiaoAo Group is dishonest.”
Ling Tian’s advice to Ouyang Jue was sincere, but it made Ouyang Jue very nervous. He thought about how Ling Tian had used the Dao length to make his father crazy, and was afraid that he would use this kind of trick on his mother again.
So he immediately put down the bottle in his hand, and warned Ling Tian not to be reckless, he would take care of the matters of his own home. Ouyang Jue’s eyes were extremely sharp, and could not help but want to grab onto Ling Tian’s neck and say these words.
However, his mother had never made such a grave mistake. He did not want his parents to turn into that crazy appearance.
“I haven’t even done anything yet and you’re in such a hurry. If I really did something, wouldn’t you burn down the entire Xu Family Mansion?”
When Ling Tian saw Ouyang Jue’s anxious look, he knew that he could not leave the Ouyang Family, so he felt that everything he was saying now was fake. Furthermore, just these few bottles of wine he drank tonight would be equivalent to a few years of ordinary income.
Ouyang Jue fell asleep at Xu Mengyun’s home. Although there was no strong alcohol in her cellar, when Ling Tian saw that he had not drunk enough, he put three sleeping pills into his bottle of wine. His tongue was numb from drinking so much that he couldn’t find anything wrong with the wine.
When he was finally knocked down onto the sofa, Ling Tian let out a long sigh of relief. He felt that Ouyang Jue’s alcohol tolerance was just too great, if he did not add some sleeping pills on top of that, he would not be able to sleep even if he drank until the morning of the next day.
“How is it, does he still insist on leaving the TiaoAo Group?”
Xu Mengyun did not sleep when she was upstairs. She saw that when Ling Tian came up, he had lifted up half of the blanket by her side. Ouyang Jue did not take his position as the CEO seriously, and immediately wanted to run away to protect himself. It was a pity that he could not hold on for too long every time.
“He does have that intention, but after waking up, he should understand the logic behind it. If he wants to protect the person he wants to protect, he has to grasp the real power, otherwise he can only helplessly watch his beloved being hurt by someone else.”
Ling Tian felt that Ouyang Jue would definitely want to understand this, especially when he realised that still cared about his mother. Just based on this, the day he ran away from home would not be more than three days.
“It’s good that you’re fine. Otherwise, I will have to call the company and have them prepare the relevant documents to break off their engagement with the TiaoAo Group. I can’t stand this kind of repeating behavior on the part of the Ouyang Family.”
Xu Mengyun had already prepared for the worst. Right now, they would at most not earn any money by withdrawing their funds, and would not lose too many things, but if this continued, after the project enters its later stages, all the funds would be converted into surface objects. At that time, dividing the funds would be extremely troublesome, and it would be better to just cut it short.
“Are you really planning to break off the engagement with the Sky Sovereign? Are you willing to part with him?” Ling Tian had a wide smile on his face, he leaned his body close to Xu Mengyun, although there were only two hours left until daybreak, he still wanted to carry on with the second half of the competition.
“It is true that we are reluctant to part with it in the company’s interest, but in the company’s development this decision must be made. As for Ouyang Jue, we can be his friend in private, but there’s no need for us to do business with him. ”
Xu Mengyun’s private affairs were quite distinct as she separated her personal emotions from the business of the Xu Group. The TiaoAo Group had changed too much and was not a good partner, so she should give up on him in time.
“Now you can finally see the TiaoAo Group as a normal partner.” Ling Tian agreed with Xu Mengyun. Ouyang Jue was a person who was loyal to his friends, but he was too indecisive about his family’s matters, so it was not good for him to continue cooperating with them. Now that something happened to Ouyang Gu, if they could settle this matter with Xia Wanru, it would be easy for them to resolve it.
“You better not do anything reckless. Ouyang Jue’s father brought this upon himself. If something were to happen to his mother, I’m afraid he would turn his spearhead and attack Xu Group directly.”
Ling Tian warned Ling Tian not to get too involved with the affairs of the Ouyang Family, otherwise, this matter would become completely self-defeating. Ling Tian could not help but sigh in his heart, Xu Mengyun’s thoughts on this matter were exactly the same as Ouyang Jue’s, and sure enough, there were some relationships that she could not leave behind, no matter how calm her mind was.
When he woke up, he accepted Ling Tian’s suggestion and returned back to being the CEO of Tian Ao. He had to at least watch over her mother so that Tian Ao’s way of thinking about cooperation and development wouldn’t be affected greatly.
Ouyang Jue knew that the first thing he did after his mother returned to the company was to change his blood and shuffle his cards, and to destroy all the forces that he had cultivated these few years. The business ideas and overall plans that he had built up with great effort would collapse in an instant, and it would be extremely difficult to recover these things. Last time, when Ouyang Gu stirred up that much, it had already caused TiaoAo Group to be surrounded by danger.
When Ouyang Jue returned to his office, many people looked anxious, especially his secretary, he immediately told him that the Madame Ouyang had returned and was currently in his office.
“CEO, Madame Ouyang looks different. Something doesn’t look right.” The secretary carefully reminded Ouyang Jue. She had never seen the Madame Ouyang before, and only knew that she was real from his past photographs and the company elder’s testimony, but this was completely different from what they heard about the Madame Ouyang. Not only did she not look weak, he also had a very strong aura about his.
“It’s alright, my mother’s health has indeed improved a lot recently.” Seeing that the secretary was completely scared silly, Ouyang Jue did not scold her excessively, but comforted her a little instead. Even he found it hard to accept the sudden change in his mother, let alone these outsiders.
Ouyang Jue pushed open the door of the office, and saw his mother standing at the window looking at the scenery. She was dressed in a light blue dress, and looked like a young lady who just came back from a long journey.
Ouyang Jue had only seen this type of headdress in his own database, it was a classic design from decades ago, the pearls embedded on it were all real pearls, he vaguely remembered that his mother had many of these hats, whether it was gold strings or jewelry, they were all real, all of them were precious during that era.
It was just that his mother often lamented about these things at home, saying that he had become outdated along with them and would only be kept in a cabinet as an exhibit. When she said these things, she was extremely sad, and he knew that these things meant a lot to his mother.
It was just that Ouyang Jue was no longer able to differentiate whether the scenes that appeared in his memories were real or fake. It could be his mother’s true feelings, or perhaps she had deliberately made a scene in front of him, he did not know how long his mother had played out in front of him.
“Son, you’re back.” When Xia Wanru heard that Ouyang Jue had returned to the company, she was a little surprised. She thought that he would be angry for ten days to half a month, and in the end, would even need some methods to return.
Yesterday, someone told her that Ouyang Jue had stayed in Xu Mengyun’s house. It seemed that this Miss Xu was a reasonable person, she must have used her own methods to persuade Ouyang Jue to stay in the group. Regardless of the reason she used, it was still a good thing for Xia Wanru.
Although Xu Mengyun did not give her any face yesterday, she was still considered to be the pride of a Wealthy Class, and was countless times better than that Ning Caier. It was a pity that this Xu Mengyun was just as strong as her, and marrying into the Wealthy Class would definitely be a fierce battle. It seemed that she would have to choose another marriage for Ouyang Jue in the future.
“After all, I’m the one who handles a lot of things in the company, so it’s more efficient for me to come personally.” Ouyang Jue was also leaning against the side of the table, standing shoulder to shoulder with Xia Wanru. He really wanted to reach out and hug his mother, but his body instinctively stayed a distance away from her.
“The chairman’s office hasn’t been renovated for a long time. I’ll arrange for someone to help you fix it up. Also, I’ll announce the official change of this upper echelon at today’s press conference.”
Ouyang Jue’s eyes never left the floor to look at his mother’s expression. Before he came here, he had already made up his mind, only by isolating Xia Wanru in Ouyang Gu’s office would he be able to avoid the number of times they met. Otherwise, he didn’t know how long he would be able to maintain such a calm state of mind.
I have already arranged for people to redecorate the office. Before the decorations are done, I will work here with you. In any case, this large room is big enough for both of us.
Xia Wanru could tell that Ouyang Jue wanted to do some official business, so she also took out this kind of attitude. She was now the chairman of the group, and also the person with the highest status, so all of the arrangements were left to her. The more her son didn’t want to see her, the more she wanted him to face her every day, and completely control his every movement.
Ouyang Jue naturally would not be willing to arrange such an arrangement, but he knew that this was also a way for his mother to support him, and now that he was the CEO, it was basically a waste. He was just acting as an assistant by his mother’s side, it was no wonder that Xia Wanru did not need to set up her own secretary, she just wanted him to act as his mother.
“I will do as you say.” Ouyang Jue took the speech and looked at it. Xia Wanru’s public relations level was very high, she wrote that returning to a high position was Ouyang Jue’s filial duty. This kind of speech that was full of friendship would definitely earn her a large amount of tears, so he did not object to this saying.
