Ever since the engagement was broken off, Shen's father had been very cold to Ouyang Yu. Ouyang Yu was feeling confused when she saw Shen's father's rare kindness and was immediately flattered.
"Grandpa Ouyang has always been incredibly kind to you, helping you in every way. But..." Father Shen's face was full of affection, but seeing Ouyang Yu looking at him with suspicion, and then glancing at Gao Wanning, who was entangled with him, a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes, yet he still spoke kindly, "But what Grandpa said makes me feel sorry for Miss Gao." He paused, then sighed, "Shushu told me that Miss Gao clearly bought this fabric, so how can Grandpa say that it was bought by his nephew? This is so unfair to Miss Gao, and it's disheartening, don't you think?"
"She is indeed Wan Ning's material. I only lent her money back then." With the beautiful woman still beside him, her eyes sparkling, Ouyang Yu naturally couldn't lie, so he stammered.
"Let's clarify things for Miss Gao," Mr. Shen sighed, expressing his strong sense of justice.
"I'm sorry, I've made you suffer." Ouyang Yu naturally noticed the different look in Gao Wanning's eyes. He truly liked Gao Wanning, liked her terribly, and of course he couldn't let his beloved suffer.
Although he found Old Master Ouyang terrifying, Ouyang Yu found immense courage for the sake of his beloved. This courage compelled him to raise his voice and shout towards the source of the sound of stone cutting, surrounded by a crowd, "This material wasn't bought by me, it belongs to Wan Ning! It all belongs to Wan Ning!"
As he uttered those words, he felt like a fearless hero, and turned to look at Gao Wanning.
It’s over!
Gao Wanning felt an overwhelming sense of despair.
She knew what kind of material it was. Actually, when Old Master Ouyang was scheming against her, she felt a little unhappy, but also relieved.
Old Master Ouyang kept insisting that this was Ouyang Yu's rough stone, which angered her. However, even if the stone turned out badly after being cut, it wouldn't damage her reputation as a master stone cutter; it would only be attributed to Ouyang Yu. He didn't need to cut the stone, so whether he gambled badly or not didn't really matter.
Although she had originally planned to wait until the hype died down before selling the damn rough stone to make money, since it looked excellent on the surface and she was sure she could recoup her costs if she sold it, her plans were completely disrupted by Old Master Ouyang's sudden move. Gao Wanning felt a pang of heartache, but she never expected that Ouyang Yu would "stand up" for her!
"It's not mine!" she said reflexively.
"Wanning, don't be afraid. I'm here. Even Grandpa won't let you suffer any injustice," Ouyang Yu said tenderly, holding her hand.
“My brother is right! Even Grandpa can’t embezzle other people’s credit, and he can’t be unreasonable!” Another champion of justice, Ouyang Huan, also shouted from the side, “Grandpa is wrong! It’s clearly Sister Gao’s rough stone. How can he do this?! What will people think of Ouyang Jewelry?!”
She was naturally a straightforward person, and when she reluctantly changed into her dress and returned, she heard what her father said. She was already very disappointed in Old Master Ouyang. She never expected that her loving grandfather would steal someone else's credit, especially since she had to please Gao Wanning to gamble on stones. Thinking about her grandfather's old age, she suddenly had a rebellious thought.
If we can damage the old man's reputation and authority, then... maybe he won't have to run the company like a one-man show.
Although Ouyang Yu was still young, he knew that his family was suppressed by his grandfather and could only receive dividends without being able to hold any real power.
"And eldest brother, how could you just stand by and watch Grandpa do this!" Cousin Ouyang Tang was also a target of Ouyang Huan's hostility. Although she was very afraid of Ouyang Tang, shouting it out in a banquet full of celebrities was much more effective than speaking ill of Ouyang Tang outside.
Ouyang Huan was an unruly person by nature. She was already secretly resentful that Ouyang Tang had forced her to change into a lifeless set of clothes. When she saw the celebrities gathered in front of Old Master Ouyang turning to look at her in surprise, she gritted her teeth and shouted loudly, "Grandpa and Big Brother are such a disappointment!"
Ouyang Yujun's handsome face, illuminated by the smooth, dazzling light of the chandelier, revealed a breathtaking beauty.
Mr. Shen had already returned to his wife and daughters with a composed expression, displaying the elegant demeanor of a middle-aged man.
Only Shen Wangshu knew what bad things he had done.
"Dad." She was both amused and exasperated. She hadn't expected that her father would go to such lengths to kill Ouyang Yu for her sake. Yet, a warm feeling welled up inside her, and she couldn't help but take her father's arm, lower her head, and smile quietly.
"Let him bully my Shushu! This time, his reputation will be completely ruined!" Father Shen sneered in a low voice. "A family of idiots! The Ouyang family is going to have internal strife this time!"
After saying this, he raised his head, still maintaining his refined demeanor. However, he was now more interested in seeing Old Master Ouyang's ashen face, a result of being contradicted and betrayed by a junior. He slowly pulled his wife and daughter over to watch the spectacle. Upon reaching the center of the stone, his eyes lit up slightly, then he hesitated, frowning at Old Master Ouyang, and said, "Brother, what is this...?"
In the center was a pile of white stones, cut into extremely large pieces.
This time, it wasn't just a "thin" slice; instead, Old Master Ouyang resolutely cut it in half lengthwise and lengthwise.
However, after cutting it open, there was still only stone, no jade.
Old Master Ouyang's expression had already turned grim.
It's not about breaking up a business over a mere tens of millions of dollars worth of raw materials.
