She’s Hard to Get - C292 Life that I want to escape from
Ning Caier had seen the video of that press conference, and he had heard every word that Ouyang Jue said clearly. He had said that they were not engaged and that they were only lovers, but he had clearly promised to marry her.
“But he also said that he loves you. He wants to be with you, so why don’t you choose to believe this?” Xu Mengyun felt that it was very strange, why was it that she was always willing to believe in those bad things but not her lover’s promises? If her heart was firm towards Ouyang Jue, at this moment, she wouldn’t suspect him at all.
Honestly speaking, Xu Mengyun hoped for Ning Caier to become the young mistress of the Ouyang Family, because according to Xia Wanru’s suggestion, she had predicted that the Madame Ouyang would choose a few marriage candidates. These women all had deep backgrounds and reputations, but they were also famous women who had their own hearts set in their mouths, so if they were to marry Ouyang Jue, the trouble in the future would definitely be even greater for the Xu Group.
At the very least, she would not obstruct the cooperation between TiaoAo Group and herself, and would also not affect her current relationship with Ouyang Jue, who would help each other. Hence, she wanted to persuade her a little today, as long as she could think of a little, it would be beneficial for all of them.
“Miss Xu, I am not you. Without your confidence and confidence, and without your good family background as a safe haven, I cannot differentiate between his lies and reality. Even if he were to stand right in front of me, I would feel that we are thousands of miles apart.”
Ning Caier forced herself to hold back her tears. This was the deepest feeling she had during this period of time, she felt that the distance between her and Ouyang Jue was getting further and further. In the past, even if she wasn’t by his side, she could still feel his thoughts and understand his thoughts.
But now, she no longer felt the connection between their hearts. She felt that they were very far away from each other. Even if he slept beside her, she wouldn’t be able to feel his inner thoughts. It was like a stranger sleeping by his side.
She didn’t know how Ouyang Jue wanted to develop with her. She didn’t want to endure a period of love between the two of them, and she didn’t want to become a Little Madam either.
Ning Caier’s emotions gradually calmed down, and she very seriously described her feelings during this period of time with Xu Mengyun. She knew that people’s feelings would change, just like how she was not sure if she could continue to persevere on.
Xu Mengyun knew that Ning Caier was speaking from the bottom of her heart, she had the same feeling when she was with Ling Tian at the beginning.
That kind of feeling wasn’t easy to bear, as if the person leaning on her could leave you at any time. It was only when Xu Mengyun escaped from that explosion, did she finally feel that Ling Tian’s feelings for her were sincere.
However, managing a relationship was not easy, it was much more difficult than managing a business. She was influential in the business world, but facing her own marriage, she had only recently found a good method. Ning Caier was still far from that, so she still needed to cultivate properly.
However, Xu Mengyun felt that Ning Caier had changed too much. All of the sharpness on her body had been erased by the Madame Ouyang, and there was no longer the sharpness she felt when she first saw her. At that time, she didn’t have any money or status, but she was very happy. She was very determined to get what she wanted, but now she had doubts about every one of her actions. This result was definitely fatal.
Even if she wasn’t with Ouyang Jue after this, she wouldn’t be able to lead a blissful life. She felt that it was necessary to correct Ning Caier’s perspective on life as she sometimes did not know whether to be fortunate or not. In fact, there were many things in her life that were worthy of Xu Mengyun’s admiration.
“Do you really think I’m fine?”
Xu Mengyun looked at Ning Caier and sighed. What Ning Caier saw was only her surface brilliance, she could only see the jewelry on her body, but could not see the huge pressure that she had to endure everyday. In fact, there had already been a battle between the two of them a long time ago.
Don’t tell me that Miss Xu thinks her life is not good? You have such a superior family background, such beautiful appearance, and a husband that has the ability and power to defeat the entire business world. Your life is perfect.
Ning Caier was extremely envious of Xu Mengyun’s life, this was something she had never felt before. However, in the midst of Madame Ouyang’s daily punches and kicks, she began to envy Xu Mengyun’s identity, as she often thought that if she was Xu Mengyun, then all of this would not have happened.
Now that Ning Caier had to admit that there were different classes in this world, and that living in a different world from Ouyang Jue was destined to be unable to fuse with her, she wanted to go back, and wanted to return to her original life.
“Miss Xu, can you let me leave this place? I want to look for my parents.”
She only wanted to escape from this place and return to the path where she originally lived. She knew that Ouyang Jue would never agree to it, he would always tell her to endure and persevere, but maybe Ouyang Jue himself did not realize that ever since the Madame Ouyang had returned, he would not be able to hold on even for long, so she wanted Xu Mengyun to help her leave. As long as she could leave this place, perhaps her life with Ouyang Jue would be back to normal.
Since she promised Ouyang Jue that she would take care of him, she had to persevere on until the end. Even if they were to fight Xia Wanru right now, she would not disappoint him, it was a kind of promise she had made to her friends, she had to be generous with it.
“Miss Xu, I really have to go now. Please help me.”
Ning Caier went over to Xu Mengyun and reached out her hands to caress her knees. In psychology, this was a begging gesture, but she suddenly pulled her hands back before her hands could even touch Xu Mengyun, because she saw that Xu Mengyun was instinctively dodging. She knew that she was being too rash, with Xu Mengyun’s status, how could she be willing to accept a touch from Xu Mengyun?
Therefore, she stood up in a panic and moved to a place far away from Xu Mengyun to sit. Her waist was slightly bent, and both of her hands were rubbing against her knees, seemingly at a loss of what to do.
Ning Caier’s subconscious evasion caused Xu Mengyun’s heart to ache for her. This person who had once insisted on her design in front of her actually lived to such a pathetic state. She lowered herself to the dust, and repeated again and again that everything in the world was nobler than her.
This woman’s control of a human’s mind was truly beyond what a normal person could possess. She could help others hypnotize without them realizing and cause a person’s consciousness to collapse in an instant.
It was fortunate that Ling Tian had a strong endurance that allowed him to be drawn into an limitless domain by the woman, otherwise, he would not be able to pull himself out of it. Just like the current Ning Caier, she was trying his best to escape because he felt that he was not worthy of Ouyang Jue in her heart, so any movements in the wind and grass were extremely sensitive to her.
Xu Mengyun could understand her feelings but she did not know where Ning Caier’s parents were currently. Furthermore, she had her passport and all of her proof of identity with Ouyang Jue, so it was impossible for her to let him leave without her. Without him knowing, Ning Caier would not even be able to leave the city.
“Ouyang Jue asked me to take care of you, I can’t let you leave without his permission, this is a promise I made to my friends, I hope you can understand.”
Xu Mengyun found a dignified reason, but of course she wouldn’t let Ning Caier go. Other than trying to explain things to Ouyang Jue, she also had her own selfish motives. Right now, there were wars everywhere outside. Xu’s and Ouyang Family had officially declared war, and the fissures of the Cooperation cases were inevitable.
And Ouyang Jue had become the tribulation between her and Xia Wanru, at this moment, she absolutely could not let Ning Caier go out and cause trouble for this matter to occur again.
If Ouyang Jue had not intervened, the outcome of the battle between her and Xia Wanru would have been mutual destruction. This kind of outcome would not have been a good thing for either the Xu Family or them, as once an irreparable loss was caused, the two families would have been completely divided up and not even their bones would have remained.
“My injuries have healed. I don’t want to be taken care of.”
Ning Caier lowered her head and looked at the floor, but her tone was very firm. She knew what she wanted, she wanted freedom now, and she wanted to forget that everything had started anew. As long as she could return to her old life, she would be willing to do the dishes in the kitchen every day.
This was the only thing she had the confidence to say, the kind of thought that gave up everything and used her life as a wager. She thought that as long as she was willing to give up everything, she would be able to obtain freedom.
“You can tell this to Ouyang Jue when he comes. I don’t have the energy to care about the two of you anymore.”
Xu Mengyun sighed, and ended the conversation with the matter of the Xu Family, Ning Caier had always thought that the Madame Ouyang was very good to her, and now she wanted to see how Xia Wanru took action against her.
The light in the study room clearly showed that Ling Tian had not finished his discussion. The elders were always surging about like a tide, and even if they signed the contract, they would continuously make noise in the big house until all the resentment in their hearts had been vented out.
Fortunately, Ling Tian was there to help her deal with this situation, otherwise, she would definitely not be able to handle it. It was very possible that she would be moved by these elders with his past feelings and continue asking them to take money in Xu Group but not work.
“Miss Xu, is it that Madame Ouyang wants to deal with Xu’s?”
When Ning Caier heard about this, she felt that it was inconceivable. However, she knew that in the current business world, there weren’t many people who could deal with Xu’s, and probably only this Madame Ouyang had that kind of strength. It was just that Ning Caier didn’t know why this Madame Ouyang wanted to deal with Xu Mengyun. Was it just because she broke a bracelet in front of her?
