"That kid is unreliable all the time, he's even less trustworthy."
Ouyang Zhoujingjun's face turned slightly cold as he took Song Nuan's bag. "Since you don't trust anyone but Jingchen, then I really have nothing to say."
He smiled at her, "Let's go, Nuannuan."
"Don't leave!"
Ouyang Ren angrily rebuked him, but before he could finish speaking, a series of rapid coughs began, each one more urgent than the last. His throat was so tight that he seemed to be coughing up his lungs.
Just hearing about it makes my heart ache.
Ouyang Zhoujing subconsciously stopped, but refrained from turning around.
But his paused steps were enough to show his anxiety.
Song Nuan didn't want to become a barrier between the grandfather and granddaughter, so she said softly, "Don't worry about me. What I encountered was much worse than this. Your grandfather's health is the priority. I'll wait for you in the car."
She didn't give Ouyang Zhoujing a chance to refuse. After speaking, she immediately took the bag from his hand and walked away.
Ouyang Zhoujing only looked away when her petite figure entered the elevator.
Turn around and return to the private room.
Ouyang Renzheng was on the phone with someone when he heard the voice. He looked up and saw Ouyang Zhoujing. He snorted coldly and remained silent with a dark face.
Ouyang Zhoujing sat down.
He remained calm as he exposed Ouyang Ren, saying, "You're faking illness again."
Ouyang Ren's eyebrows shot up upon hearing this. "What do you mean by that?"
“If Nuannuan hadn’t asked me to come back and see you, I wouldn’t be sitting here right now.”
He looked at Ouyang Ren with a faint smile, his expression indifferent. "I've made myself very clear. Since you've chosen to believe in A-Jing, be prepared for me to disobey you."
Among the four major families, the Li family is an exception; the younger generations of the other families are all very obedient.
Obedience and compliance are values instilled in them by their families from a young age.
The family must be absolutely obedient.
Ouyang Renyi looked serious; he could tell that Ouyang Zhoujing wasn't joking.
"You're going to defy me for a woman?"
Upon hearing this, Ouyang Ren himself was incredulous and laughed out loud, "Well, you've grown up, your wings have hardened, and you want to forge your own path."
Ouyang Zhoujing's eyelids twitched suddenly.
He understood Ouyang Ren's implied meaning almost instantly.
He clenched his fists, feeling as if two little people were tearing each other apart in his mind, trying to persuade each other, to convince him.
The battle between reason and emotion ended inconclusively.
Someone knocked on the door, interrupting Ouyang Zhoujing's thoughts.
The short-haired woman returned, asking in surprise, "Zhou Jing, where did your girlfriend go?"
Ouyang Ren was cold.
"Auntie, could you please take Grandpa to the hospital for a check-up? He's coughing again."
The woman opened her mouth as if to say something, but was intimidated by Ouyang Ren's gaze and swallowed her words, saying nothing.
Ouyang Zhoujing left.
"Have you thought this through? Once you walk out this door today, the Ouyang Group will have nothing to do with you anymore!" Ouyang Ren shouted angrily at his retreating figure.
The woman's eyes lit up.
Has the old man finally come to his senses?
Unexpectedly, Ouyang Zhoujing said, "Your health is more important now. The board of directors has unanimously voted to let me join the board. Grandpa, don't worry too much about the group's affairs; it's bad for your health."
"this……"
The woman looked at him, then at Ouyang Ren, with a lot of questions she wanted to ask.
Ouyang Ren sensed something and gave her a dirty look, "I know what you're trying to say. What doesn't belong to your family will never fall into your lap."
The woman clenched her back teeth and forced a smile.
“Dad, I don’t know what you’re talking about. We’re all family. Of course I hope Zhou Jing can take over the group so that our second branch can have some peace and quiet.”
"Good to know."
Bentley, passenger seat.
Song Nuan stared at the ring on her index finger for a long time, becoming somewhat lost in thought.
The phone rang.
It was Fang Yu calling. Song Nuan answered directly, and Fang Yu's voice came through: "Yuanzheng's cash flow is having some problems. The project was done by their person in charge without Zhong Guan's knowledge."
"They're just hoping to use the money from the Song family to fill the gaps in their pockets."
Song Nuan pursed her lips slightly, "Anything else?"
As Fang Yu flipped through the documents, she said, "The factory had some minor violations, which I reported anonymously. Today, the relevant departments came to inspect and ordered it to suspend operations for rectification, but it won't last long."
The contract stipulates a very generous delivery time.
There were still six months until Yuanzheng's first delivery, and the factory only stopped operating for a few days, so there was almost no impact.
Song Nuan remained silent for a moment, then asked after a moment's thought, "Has the research team investigated and confirmed there are no problems?"
“I’ve checked, but…”
After a few seconds of silence, Fang Yu exhaled a breath of stale air, "This research team is related to the Ouyang Group."
Song Nuan frowned. "What did you say?"
Fang Yu relayed all the information she had found to Song Nuan, even clarifying the relationships between the information.
That's how it is.
Fang Yu said, "It's probably impossible to start with Yuanzheng's research team. With a large group backing them, their position is hard to shake unless we start with the academic community."
She didn't say the rest of her sentence.
But Song Nuan understood.
Investigating within the academic community is clearly impossible for Song Nuan. She lacks connections and the necessary resources; acting rashly would only invite trouble.
"What did Su Yin say?"
"Still the same." Speaking of her, Fang Yu had a million complaints to tell. "She comes to the company to cause trouble every day. I called the police once, but she learned to behave herself after that. She only follows me and doesn't cause any more trouble."
"With Song Zhiren as a guarantor, the security guards dared not refuse her entry. Now, several departments have applied to change the locks on their offices to keep an eye on her, incurring additional expenses for no reason."
Song Nuan: "..."
This Su Yin is truly more trouble than she's worth.
With a headache, Song Nuan closed her eyes and said wearily, "Let's just sue her and see how much the court orders her to pay. We'll talk about the rest after I'm done with this busy period."
Fang Yu responded with an "okay".
But he didn't hang up the phone for a long time.
"Is there anything else?"
Fang Yu gave a light "hmm," as if casually making small talk, and asked, "Are you with President Ouyang now?"
"What's wrong?"
"Actually, there's another way. Since the Ouyang Group endorses Yuanzheng's research team, they have a good relationship. If the Ouyang Group is willing, perhaps it's possible..."
Song Nuan interrupted her directly, "I will handle this matter. You don't need to worry about it. First, have the legal department sue Su Yin."
With a slight movement of her lips, Fang Yu wisely refrained from mentioning the Ouyang Group again.
Snap.
The phone was thrown into the bag.
Leaning against the car window, Song Nuan's temples throbbed. She couldn't describe her current feelings; she just felt confused.
Everything is a mess.
Unintentionally glancing up, I caught a glimpse of a tall figure emerging from the restaurant, walking steadily with an expressionless face.
The car door opened, and the man exuded a chill.
"Are you hungry?" Ouyang Zhoujing smiled, extremely considerate. "There's a pretty good barbecue place nearby. I just made a reservation with them. Let's go there now."
Song Nuan clutched her bag, her hand unconsciously fiddling with the strap.
Finally, she took a deep breath and asked, "Zhou Jing, is the Ouyang Group's R&D department directly under your management?"
Ouyang Zhoujing paused.
Then, with a calm smile, he asked, "What's wrong? Why are you asking this?"
