“I find it disgusting,” Xue Xuan interrupted Old Master Ouyang, speaking quite rudely.
While he was being comfortably pinched on the ear, an old geezer suddenly appeared, which made Master Xue very unhappy.
Old Master Ouyang choked, but dared not lash out. He could only smile politely and turn to Shen's father, sighing, "I've come here today, shamelessly, to apologize to Brother Shen! This lad!" He pointed at Ouyang Yu's handsome face, which had dimmed with disappointment, and said, "He's too kind-hearted. He sees someone pitiful and just wants to help her. Brother Shen knows he's upright and honest, without any ulterior motives. It's possible he was temporarily deceived by a woman. But I've already scolded him and told him to come and apologize to Brother Shen and Miss Shen."
He's not young, but he's very humble. If someone is soft-hearted, they might be swayed by his pleading.
However, when it came to his daughter's affairs, Shen's father was unyielding. Now that he had Xue Xuan's backing, although he wouldn't admit it, he still had the guts to say no.
With Xue Xuan as a safety net, Shen Wangshu will always be able to get married.
"He's such a kind-hearted person. He was tricked today, making Shushu sad. If he brings back another woman tomorrow, he'll make Shushu sad again. When will this end? You make it sound too easy, brother. Let others enjoy such a kind person. My Shushu wouldn't dare to aspire to him."
He didn't hesitate to give himself a seniority.
Since a marriage alliance is not possible, why should she be a generation below Old Man Ouyang? Therefore, Shen's father ignored Old Man Ouyang's stiff old face, and gave Ouyang Yu a rude scolding before waving his hand and saying, "The engagement invitations haven't been sent out yet anyway. If you ask me, let's call off this marriage."
"How can this be!" Old Master Ouyang's face changed slightly, and he gave Ouyang Yu a subtle glare before sincerely saying, "The children still have feelings for each other."
Shen's Jewelry has only one heir, Shen Shuya, who is a daughter. As long as Ouyang Yu marries her, once Shen's parents pass away, Shen's Jewelry will fall into the hands of the Ouyang family without any effort.
With such a bargain, how could Old Master Ouyang let it slip away?
"What feelings? Shushu has no feelings for this boy." Father Shen was not a stupid man. He had long known about the Ouyang family's little scheme. He just thought that if Ouyang Yu had received such a benefit for free, given the Shen family's large fortune, he would treat his daughter well.
Who knew he wasn't dead yet? Shen's Jewelry hadn't even fallen into the hands of the Ouyang family, and Ouyang Yu dared to humiliate his beloved daughter in front of so many people. Openly bringing a woman to swagger around, and even siding with that woman—is that even humanly possible?
Even Shen's father felt that the kicks Shen Wangshu gave Ouyang Yu were really satisfying.
He went back on his word, leaving Old Master Ouyang at a loss for what to do.
"Come over here and apologize!" he had no choice but to yell at Ouyang Yu.
Ouyang Yu's face still bore faint traces of blood, scabbed over, yet still strikingly visible. Humiliation flashed across his handsome face, but after glancing at his cousin, who had remained silent and expressionless since entering, he rose and walked to Shen's father. Seeing that Shen's father wouldn't even look at him, clearly displeased, he pursed his lips and said dejectedly, "It was my fault, Uncle Shen, please be magnanimous and don't hold it against me." He didn't understand why, even though he was the one who had been beaten, he had to apologize.
Shen Shuya publicly berated and scolded him in front of all the jewelry merchants in S City, making him a laughing stock, but he still had to come and apologize.
Is it because of Shen's Jewelry?
He still felt a dull ache when he walked, and his face was deathly pale, but the thought of the 30 million yuan rough jade that was kept securely in the Ouyang family's vault gave him a jolt of excitement.
If he can prove to his grandfather that he can make more contributions to Ouyang Jewelry, then there's no need for a marriage alliance, right?
Gao Wanning has been safely taken to a small apartment under his name. She lost face today and is very depressed. He also feels very sorry for her.
"Let's break off the engagement." Father Shen said coldly, not even bothering to look at the man, as this didn't seem like a sincere apology.
He insisted on annuling the engagement. When Old Master Ouyang saw that he couldn't reason with him, he immediately showed some dissatisfaction. After thinking for a moment, he turned to Shen Wangshu and smiled, "Where's Shu girl?"
Shen Wangshu loves Ouyang Yu deeply and is willing to do anything for him, so he will probably forgive Ouyang Yu this time.
Grandpa Ouyang was full of confidence, with a hint of a smile in his eyes.
"It was my decision to break off the engagement. As the eldest daughter of Shen's Jewelry, I have no reason to fight with another woman for a man."
Seeing that the smile on Old Master Ouyang's face had vanished, Shen Wangshu said casually, "These days, we lack everything except men. We're not immortals descended to earth; if this one isn't good, I'll just find a better one. Why bother?" Seeing Ouyang Yu looking at her with a pale face, she smiled and said, "If any woman is willing to take what I've used, then let her use it. As long as she doesn't mind, that's fine."
Does he really think he can't live without his grandson?
Her impoliteness caused a flash of anger in Old Master Ouyang's eyes.
However, he also knew that Ouyang Yu had indeed acted improperly today. Even if she wanted to cheat, she would have to wait until after the wedding and after she had obtained Shen's Jewelry, right? Knowing that the Shen father and daughter were still angry and would say different things at this moment, Old Master Ouyang forced a smile and said, "Shu'er is still upset. Forget it, let the children resolve their own feelings. But to tell Brother Shen something from the bottom of my heart, I really like Shu'er and I really can't bear to part with her. We can discuss the engagement later, and we should also consider breaking off the engagement in a more thorough way so that the children won't regret it later."
"I won't regret it. We'll break off the engagement today." Xue Xuan said calmly after hearing this.
He suddenly spoke, immediately drawing everyone's attention. Old Master Ouyang abruptly turned to look at him, and then his old eyes fell on the two clasped hands, causing his face to twitch.
"She doesn't like you anymore, why do you insist on clinging to her?" "Master Xue" still remembered Shen Wangshu's words that she could marry him if the engagement was broken off, so he said with a stern face to Ouyang Yu's pale face, "She likes me. Even if you force it, the only person in her heart is me, and you two will not be happy."
What a big face!
It's the same kind of thing as forcing a mistress to step down in front of the wife.
Shen's father secretly covered his face.
He smiled.
