However, for such a cruel thing, no matter how much preparations were made, it was enough to cause Ning Caier to feel extreme pain.
Although Xu Mengyun felt that leaving this place here would damage its original economic value, Ouyang Jue still retained its original appearance. It was just that it was different from the deserted villa complex previously, with Xu Mengyun's marketing strategy, more than half of the villas were sold off.
It had only been half a month since Ning Caier left the country, but a tremendous change had already occurred here.
This was because Ning Caier had seen very clearly that the person waiting for her here wasn't Ouyang Jue but Xu Mengyun. Driver Old Wu was the person Ouyang Jue trusted the most, to be able to make him listen to Xu Mengyun's orders, it could be seen that the relationship between the two of them was already to the point of being evenly matched.
But in reality, Lao Wu did not lend it to him, it was this Miss Xu that received the news of Ning Caier leaving and specially checked her flight number to come here to wait for him.
Xu Mengyun guessed that Ouyang Jue would not let his stay in his home to cause unnecessary rumors, and would not be at ease if Ning Caier returned to his dorm or lived in his parents' home. Hence, the only place she could come to was this place.
"Fleeing before the battle is not a good way to pay your debts. Miss Ning, do you know how much damage you have done to me?"
Xu Mengyun frowned slightly, she was extremely unsatisfied with Ning Caier's decision to leave without saying anything. Just now, the manager from outside the country had told her that Ning Caier had not attended the most important meeting, and this caused them to lose several large orders. If she were to punish Ning Caier, she would not be able to repay the money that she owed her in her entire life.
"I'm sorry, Miss Xu. I really came back because I had something urgent."
Ning Caier knew she was in the wrong, so she kept apologizing, even for Lao Wu standing at the side was extremely awkward. Originally, Ouyang Jue had gone to the TiaoAo Group to settle some things, allowing him to bring Ning Caier back first. He had heard from Ouyang Jue that the two of them were just cooperating together, but in this kind of situation that was getting more and more like a fake show, he could only choose to stay silent in order to protect himself.
"Right now, go back and apologize to all the merchants. I do not wish for the Xu Group to be tainted in any way because of this matter."
Xu Mengyun's words were very firm, she actually wanted to push Ning Caier into the carriage. It had been a long time since she and Ouyang Jue had gotten along with each other, and Ning Caier had come to make trouble at this time. If she did not feel anything towards Ouyang Jue, this kind of argument was something that even she, a machine, would not believe.
"Miss Xu, I called Cai'er back."
Ouyang Jue rushed over as soon as he finished dealing with the matter with Tian Ao. He was a little surprised to see Xu Mengyun here, but he could understand why this woman was so angry, because even if she wasn't punctual, she wouldn't tolerate someone who wasn't punctual. Furthermore, Ning Caier fleeing this time was simply a violation of her great taboo, so he could only take responsibility for herself.
"Miss Ning is currently working in my company, shouldn't you inform me before you ask her to come back?"
Xu Mengyun also had a dark face toward Ouyang Jue. She desperately wanted to isolate Ning Caier from their lives, so the relationship she had with them could only be that of an employee. It absolutely could not be a third party to them.
"This time, I was inconsiderate, but Cai'er's return is also good, so I can help."
Ouyang Jue did not want Ning Caier to go overseas again, since the matters of the Bai's disease had been resolved, what was left was merely a side issue, with Xu Mengyun's ability, it was easy to settle it, let alone the fact that she was the true creditor of the money, he did not care, there was no need for Xu Mengyun to force the issue.
"What can she help us with? It's currently difficult for us reporters to focus all our attention on Han Yuqi and Bai Youya, could it be that you want to make a scandal before our engagement ceremony so that the entire Xu's will not be at peace as well?"
Xu Mengyun didn't give Ouyang Jue a good face, she immediately returned to her own villa after she finished speaking. This was a project that she strongly recommended, so naturally, she had to buy a set to be convincing, and she also wanted to give and herself some space. In reality, she had come here to wait for him, for him to come and apologize.
"I'm sorry, I've disturbed your marriage again." Seeing that Xu Mengyun had gotten so angry, Ning Caier knew that she had destroyed Ouyang Jue's marriage relationship again, so she quickly apologized. She hoped that there was still room for manoeuvre.
"Don't worry, Miss Xu is a person who is extremely serious about her work. If you have the chance in the future, you will have to atone for your deeds."
Ouyang Jue brought Ning Caier into the room. In order to prevent her from telling Han Yuqi the truth, he still did not tell her about the fake engagement between him and Xu Mengyun. Only, Ning Caier's attention did not seem to be on him either.
"CEO, I really want to know how Bai Family is doing. How is Yu Qi doing?"
Ning Caier knew that Ouyang Jue was definitely someone who knew, so she hoped to get a definite answer. Although she knew that Lao Wu was the most loyal person there, she still hoped that he had lied.
"All of Bai Group's assets have been mortgaged and sold, including Miss White's shares in Tian Ao. As for her relationship with Yu Qi, the reports are true, they have been together since a long time ago."
Ouyang Jue knew that these words were cruel, but he still forced himself to say it. He used his hand to hold Ning Caier's head, making her look at him, "Cai'er, it's over.
"It can't be. Those pieces of news were fake news you and the Miss Xu released to attack the Bai Group, right? It's all because of you, isn't it? "
Ning Caier cried her heart out. She would rather believe that Ouyang Jue was lying to her than to believe that Han Yuqi was lying to her.
"I swear that this matter is definitely not news that I am making up. Cai'er, you should rest for a while, and I will arrange a position for you in Tian Ao. As for Han Yuqi, he has already been expelled from TiaoAo Group, so you don't have to worry about being embarrassed by him."
Ouyang Jue knew that he wouldn't be able to persuade Ning Caier in a short amount of time, and could only let her calm down here. This villa was used by him as a guest house, and if it wasn't specially arranged, no one would come to this place.
"I can't stay here. I need to meet Yu Qi. I need to ask him!" Ning Caier didn't want to go back to Sky Ox City to work, nor did she want to stay in this villa. She only wanted to see Han Yuqi now, since she knew very well where his house was.
"There are reporters reporting everything that happened with Han Yuqi every day. There's no need for you to go over there personally." Ouyang Jue blocked off the door and did not let Ning Caier leave. He knew that Bai Youya lived in the same house as him, and he did not want Ning Caier to humiliate him there.
"Then I'll wait a little longer. If you have any news, you must tell me as soon as possible."
Ning Caier knew that she was unable to struggle free from Ouyang Jue, so she pretended to agree to his request and waited for him to leave after he had left. Ning Caier, on the other hand, had actually allowed the Driver Old Wu to guard the door, afraid that Ning Caier would leave on her own accord.
In reality, he did not want to leave Ning Caier alone in his room, but he had an even more important thing to do right now, and that was to clearly investigate the whereabouts of the Heavenly Pride stock. All of the stocks in Bai Youya's hands had been mortgaged, but as for where they were mortgaged, she was unwilling to say, if these stocks flowed into the black market and were bought by someone with ulterior motives, it would be extremely troublesome for.
"Miss Xu." Ouyang Jue went to Xu Mengyun's villa. In terms of finding these things, she had more human connection than him, so he wanted her to think of a way to find out who had all these shares in them. "This is a very important matter, if you can find out the answer, money is not a problem."
"Are you here for the shares?" Xu Mengyun had originally thought that Ouyang Jue was here to apologize, but when she heard him ask about the shares, she was displeased. She had naturally used all of her connections towards Ouyang Jue, but the shares were as quiet as a stone sinking into the ocean, there was no path she could take to find them.
"Of course it's also to apologize. She and I are in the wrong regarding Cai'er. I will think of a way to make up for the loss of the Xu Family abroad."
Ouyang Jue pulled out a flower from a vase and placed it in front of Xu Mengyun, but this kind of obsequious way of offering did not gain any good feelings from Xu Mengyun, but instead made her feel even more uncomfortable. Ouyang Jue had obviously put him and Ning Caier together, making his an outsider.
"Not bad, my EQ has increased recently. I finally understand how to be petty now." Ouyang Jue saw that Xu Mengyun turned his head and did not say a word, and quickly changed the topic, this joke made Xu Mengyun unable to get angry anymore. She sat there and shook her head helplessly. Now that she was almost dead from anger, Ouyang Jue actually said that she had high EQ, the less EQ the better, so as to avoid losing his lifespan.
"Meng Yun, speaking of proper business, the things that you can't find are most likely related to who or where?"
Ouyang Jue knew that she was not really angry, and immediately became serious. Tian Ao's shares were extremely important, and now that she had actually disappeared, could it be that Bai Group had some sort of hidden funds, or was Bai Tianlong just pretending to be sick?
"What I can't find must be on the black market, and it must be on the black market. They must have done some kind of operation in the dark, so they didn't leave any documents behind."
Xu Mengyun said this somewhat helplessly. There were many rules in the black market, but the person who had access to these things must be someone very familiar with the black market.
"You mean this guy has a background, and he must have come from the bottom?" After Ouyang Jue heard Xu Mengyun's description, he immediately thought of one person, and it was truly as if his soul had never left his body.
In this world, the one who was making life difficult for him was this man, if he entered the board of directors, it would definitely be even worse than Bai Youya. It was just that Qin Lang's financial dealings abroad had always been a mystery, and with the fact that he had never come back from foreign lands, Ouyang Jue had nowhere to start.
"Once the shares are transferred, there is no way for us to stop it. The most important thing right now is that nothing should happen to Tian Ao, in two days time it will be the engagement banquet. You should be able to attend it on time, right?"
