After all, the powerful Ouyang family is not one that ordinary people can afford to offend.
Even if they manage to leave the Ouyang family alive, Ouyang Yunruo will not let this go after suffering such a great loss.
Just when everything was at a stalemate, a majestic voice rang out.
What happened here?
Upon hearing the sound, everyone turned to look.
Ouyang Yunruo's face immediately showed a confident air as she turned her head to look.
Upon seeing the person who had arrived, she happily ran over and grabbed his arm, "Dad, what brings you here?"
The person who came was Ouyang Yunruo's father, Ouyang Si'ang.
Jian Yixue sized up Ouyang Si'ang in front of her.
He hasn't changed much in the many years since I last saw him.
His thick eyebrows were like blades, and his eyes were full of shrewd calculation. He looked exactly the same as I had casually glanced at him in my memory, and he didn't look like someone easy to get along with.
Ouyang Si'ang smiled and patted Ouyang Yunruo's head. "I came to look for you after we finished talking, but you weren't in your room, so I came out to look for you. Sure enough, you little girl had come out to play."
Ouyang Yunruo, with the demeanor of an obedient girl, said in a coquettish tone, "I was just too bored in the room, so I came out for a walk."
Ouyang Si'ang didn't really blame Ouyang Yunruo. He loved his daughter dearly, so why would he be upset over such a small matter?
Ouyang Si'ang suddenly thought of something, glanced around, and frowned when he saw the group of people.
He then lowered his head and asked, "What are you all doing gathered here?"
The question was clearly directed at Ouyang Yunruo.
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Yunruo felt emboldened and was about to speak when someone beat her to it.
Ouyang Rao rushed forward and burst into tears, "Uncle, you have to stand up for me and my cousin! This woman not only hit me, but also slandered my cousin..."
"Ouyang Rao! Haven't you caused enough trouble?!" Jiang Xuanjin was furious when he heard Ouyang Rao's words.
He felt increasingly regretful for accompanying Ouyang Rao here, for making a fool of himself alongside her.
If he had known that Ouyang Rao was so troublesome, he would have preferred to come alone and secretly.
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Rao was immediately enraged. "Brother Jin, are you still going to speak up for her even now? I am your fiancée! How can you defend another woman in front of me like this? Where do you put me?!"
Jiang Xuanjin frowned deeply, feeling somewhat guilty, and couldn't help but glance at Jian Yixue.
In his view, this was tantamount to betrayal.
But between him and Ouyang Rao...
Upon hearing this, Jian Yixue realized that it was indeed true.
That's good, that way she doesn't have to be on guard all the time.
Ye Mohan noticed Jiang Xuanjin's gaze, immediately wrapped his arm around Jian Yixue's waist, and looked directly at Jiang Xuanjin with a provocative gaze, flaunting his ownership.
When Jiang Xuanjin saw Jian Yixue's indifferent gaze and Ye Mohan's provocation, he felt a pang of pain in his heart and quickly looked away.
Jiang Xuanjin suppressed his extreme anger, "Enough! I will explain the matter between you and me to my father in person when I get back. You don't need to use my name to speak in public anymore."
"What did you say? Brother Jin, are you planning to abandon me?" Ouyang Rao couldn't care less about continuing to complain; all she could see was Jiang Xuanjin's disgusted look.
She loved him so much, how could he be so heartless for that bitch!
"Nothing has ever happened between you and me, so there's no question of whether I want you or not." Jiang Xuanjin coldly distanced himself from Ouyang Rao.
Ouyang Rao's face was pale and she looked extremely aggrieved, with tears streaming down her face.
"Brother Jin..."
Seeing this, Ouyang Si'ang interrupted, "Everyone, please disperse."
Those who heard Ouyang Si'ang's words understood his meaning and went about their business.
Although they were eager to watch the spectacle, the cost was too high for them to bear.
Seeing this, Ouyang Si'ang looked at everyone and said, "Come with me."
This isn't the time to solve problems, and he didn't want to become a laughingstock.
Jian Yixue did not refuse; she did not want to stay in such an environment.
Moreover, such an environment is not suitable for conversation at all, nor is it suitable for her to look for flaws.
After all, she wasn't really there for the birthday party.
Jian Yixue followed, and Ye Mohan naturally followed wherever his wife was.
Although Jiang Xuanjin really wanted to leave, as the person involved, he couldn't back out now. Besides, Jian Yixue chose to go with him, so he followed.
In the reception room.
Today, the Ouyang family is hosting a banquet, and there are people everywhere except here, which is usually the place to discuss business, but it is empty today.
Ouyang Si'ang sat in the head seat, with Ouyang Yunruo naturally sitting beside him, while Jian Yixue and Jiang Xuanjin sat to his left and right respectively.
Ouyang Rao was still crying and sobbing, and hadn't stopped since earlier.
Jiang Xuanjin had a gloomy face the whole time, as if he would not want to stay here for even a second longer if possible.
Ouyang Si'ang frowned as he looked down at Jian Yixue and her companion, who appeared calm and composed, clearly not from an ordinary family.
He had already met Jiang Xuanjin and the other two yesterday.
Thinking of something, Ouyang Si'ang looked at his daughter, "Ruo Ruo, tell me what exactly happened?"
Ouyang Yunruo glanced at the sobbing Ouyang Rao and realized that she couldn't rely on her in this matter, so she had no choice but to confide in her own mother.
"I don't know what happened between my cousin and her. When I went downstairs to find my cousin, they were already arguing fiercely."
I thought today was a very important day for me, so I wanted that lady to apologize and let the matter drop.
But to my surprise, she didn't appreciate it and even slandered me.
She looked so pitiful, as if she had suffered a great injustice.
After hearing what he said, Ouyang Si'ang squinted at Jian Yixue and was puzzled by her calm and composed demeanor.
Moreover, he felt that the woman's face was familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen her before.
As a seasoned politician, he is very confident in his ability to be lazy.
The two people in front of me were clearly not ordinary people.
Is there some misunderstanding?
"Young man, do you have anything to explain?"
Ouyang Si'ang asked tentatively.
Jian Yixue raised an eyebrow, a cold smile playing on her lips. "What does Vice President Ouyang want me to say?"
Ouyang Si'ang frowned; he couldn't see through the woman in front of him.
Ouyang Yunruo cursed inwardly, wondering why he couldn't understand this woman and even chose to support her.
Was she drugged?
...
Upon seeing this, Ouyang Si'ang turned to Ouyang Rao and said, "Ouyang Rao, you tell me what happened!"
Ouyang Rao, who was originally immersed in pain, came back to her senses after hearing Ouyang Si'ang's words. Her eyes were filled with jealousy and resentment when she looked at Jian Yixue.
