It was just that she wasn't willing to admit defeat, so her strong self-esteem forced her to live a happier life than Ouyang Jue did. Even if this happiness was an act, she didn't want to be alone by his and Ning Caier's side.
He felt that he shouldn't have provoked Ling Tian to come back, and should have found an even more ordinary man instead. But how could the sharpness of an ordinary man compare to Ouyang Jue?
She hoped that her future husband would be someone who could surpass Ouyang Jue in the business world, so as to prevent others from saying that she had no other choice but to marry him. Therefore, she chose Ling Tian, a man who looked to be a perfect match for her, but was also someone who did not hate her.
Ling Tian looked at the gap between him and Xu Mengyun, and felt that it was like a thick mountain wall was separating them within another two worlds. During this time, he and Xu Mengyun had been out on a business trip. Even though they weren't as intimate as before, they had a pretty good relationship with each other.
Even after returning to the Xu Family, she did not reject him at all, and did not conceal his existence even when she was in front of the elders of the Xu Family. It was not easy for him, as she finally had hope of being able to turn the situation around, but today, all of Ouyang Jue's hopes had instantly disappeared, which made him feel that this man was even more unforgivable.
But he did not want to continue this stalemate with Xu Mengyun, lest she choose to stand on Ouyang Jue's side and clash head on with him. He also knew how to put on a show, and what he did looked very real, as if it was from the bottom of his heart.
It's fine if you don't want to work with the TiaoAo Group, but there are a lot of people who want to work with me anyway.
Ling Tian placed a peeled prawn on Xu Mengyun's plate, not wanting to have an irrevocable relationship with her. This kind of step for Xu Mengyun would naturally be taken by Xu Mengyun, and she would definitely make the elders more satisfied with her marriage. This was because Xu Group had already wanted to break away from traditional industries for these few years and focus her business on foreign markets.
From a business point of view, Ling Tian was definitely a very suitable candidate. From the perspective of the heavens, the further away this man was from Ouyang Jue's territory, the less harm he would receive.
Therefore, Xu Mengyun pondered for a bit, and decided to stake everything on this. Since she wanted Ouyang Jue to see her happiness, then let him see her complete happiness.
"When we get married, I want to focus my Xu's's business abroad. I think we should settle down there."
Xu Mengyun placed the prawn into her own mouth, as if she was talking about a business. However, her calm reply caused Ling Tian to be shocked, he had not even decided how to propose, and Xu Mengyun had already planned for her life after their marriage. This made him change from Bei Tai to her fiancé in an instant.
"Is that not okay? I've considered it. If you stay in the country for a long period of time, you might cause unnecessary trouble. So, it's best if we go abroad to settle down. The elders are also in favor of that."
Looking at Ling Tian's dazed expression, Xu Mengyun couldn't understand why he didn't agree to it. Although he had the intention to start her internal operations, her foundation was still abroad.
"You and the elders of the Xu Family have even discussed such a thing?" Ling Tian had always thought that everything that Xu Mengyun had done was within his control, but he never thought that her thoughts would jump so far, that it was completely out of his control.
Regardless of whether or not he could complete his plan to infiltrate the TiaoAo Group, he would definitely agree to a good thing like getting a wife and the entire Xu Group first. Moreover, he could continue to purchase TiaoAo Group after marrying Xu Mengyun, these two things were not contradictory, furthermore, as long as Xu Mengyun became his woman, even if she did not stand on her side, she would side with him.
Although ordinary people had never heard of Ling Tian's name or knew of his background, the responses of the people in the business world were extremely positive. They used very cryptic words to describe this fiance of Xu Mengyun's. The background that no one dared to say was the real alligator, the true alligator of the business world.
Furthermore, the two of them did not enter the engagement ceremony, but chose to get married instead. This result made everyone guess in their hearts that the true date between Xu Mengyun and her had definitely not started after she and Ouyang Jue had broken off their engagement.
All sorts of discussions and discussions exploded online. There were even some that said that Ouyang Jue was unwittingly wearing a green hat, and stupidly held an engagement ceremony with Xu Mengyun. Ouyang Jue only laughed about the contents of these discussions, he did not care about what those people were gossiping about, rather, he wanted to register an account to participate in the discussions.
"What are you laughing at? Miss Xu stole your headlines this time. Outsiders say that she's much better off marrying this man than you, yet you're still so happy."
Ning Caier ran in happily from the outside, in her hand she was holding a bunch of light green hydrangea flowers, decorating the vase in the room. Xu Mengyun's engagement had filled her life with vitality, early in the morning she had replaced all the imitation flowers in the room, all with fresh flowers, as though the one who was going to be the new wife was herself.
After leaving the restaurant that time, Xu Mengyun never contacted Ouyang Jue again, but before the news of their marriage was announced, Miss Xu had already sent the wedding invitation and accompanying gift to her home.
In addition to the invitation, there was also chocolate, perfume and handmade soap inside the box. The contents were packed into a heart-shaped box, making people feel that they were extremely happy, and in less than a morning, Ning Caier had already finished all the chocolates inside, leaving only a few pieces of candy on the table. Ouyang Jue could only sigh at the fact that Xu Mengyun had not delivered enough, and should have sent a full box of candies.
"I'm enjoying this news. I wish I could tell them personally, so why would I complain about the amount of news? Even if I had to cover the whole page to congratulate them on their marriage, I would be willing!"
Ouyang Jue picked up the newspaper in his hands. This time, the Xu Group's method of announcing the news of the wedding was very special, they did not hold a press conference, but rather printed their wedding invitation on the advertising pages of the various newspapers.
Although those commoners didn't know who Ling Tian was, they were envious of his romance. The pink color of the paper was enough to make the hearts of young girls in the city move.
"Mr. Ling will definitely treat Miss Xu very well. Just by looking at this invitation card, you can tell that he spent a lot of time and effort."
Ning Caier picked up the newspaper and read it over and over again. Their marriage invitation had even gone to the finance page, and they had to pay for all of the advertising spots and big events today.
"Should we call him and congratulate him? After all, we were the first to receive the invitation." Ning Caier looked at the box full of gifts as she contemplated about what she should give Xu Mengyun as a wedding present. However, she had experienced ordinary weddings and Xu Mengyun would definitely not like gifts that only girls would like.
"I called her a long time ago, but it was answered by a secretary. She and Mr. Ling are busy taking wedding photos right now, so she can't even attend to her phone calls. Furthermore, the presents she likes are all special."
Ouyang Jue understood Xu Mengyun's personality, the best gift she wanted was a business deal. It would be the best if everyone gathered at her place and used it as her wedding gift.
Ouyang Jue had already prepared this gift. Although he wasn't willing to work with someone like Ling Tian, Xu's and Tian Ao had worked together for a long time, so it was impossible for them to separate at all. Thus, he set up a company by himself that specialized in entertainment shows, planning to use this company to work with Ling Tian.
"Miss Xu will definitely be very happy to know about this." Although Ning Caier felt that Ling Tian was arrogant, he seemed to be extremely capable. The result of working with such a person should not be bad, and it could even strengthen their Xu's's alliance and raise the group's position in the industry.
Ning Caier happily read and reread the contents of the newspaper over and over, but in an extremely small corner of the newspaper, Ning Caier saw another matter, and that was the news Qin Lang and Bai Youya had released.
Although their case had only been given a suspended sentence, they were still locked up for a period of time during their scheduled time in court. Now that the news of their release was reported, it could be considered as having given a final account of the case.
She placed the newspaper on the table and knocked on Qin Lang's and Bai Youya's names. Now that both of their properties had been repaid, it would be better for them to live in prison.
"The two of them actually came out so quickly?"
Ouyang Jue also saw that small piece of news. Even if they were to reach an agreement on compensation in advance for such a serious case, the interrogation period would probably be more than half a year, but now, not even a month had passed, and the two of them had already swaggered out of Police station. It must be because they had some connections, and the only person still willing to help Qin Lang out was Ling Tian.
The smile on his face couldn't help but retract, because he really couldn't understand the reason why Ling Tian released Qin Lang at this moment. Could it be that he wanted to keep such a homeless dog by his side?
Ouyang Jue couldn't figure it out, so he suppressed the plan he had prepared to cooperate with Ling Tian. He felt that he had to be careful with this matter, and he felt that he would never be able to leave the city for a long time.
"If you are worried, go and check on their current situation. I also don't want the Miss White to end up in a shelter."
Ning Caier looked at Ouyang Jue's somewhat serious expression, and thought that he had come to such a sorry state for the Bai Family, because her family was once friends with the Bai Family, and since they no longer had the possibility of making a comeback, it was reasonable for him to give them some help in order to protect their Wealthy Class's reputation.
"Indeed, we should go and take a look. These two people don't seem like people who can live a good life." Ouyang Jue looked at that tiny piece of news and felt that he needed to personally see what was going on, but he had never thought of helping these two people before this. He wanted to make sure that they did not have the chance to counterattack.
It was not hard to find Qin Lang and Bai Youya's residence, in less than a day's time, there were people who had found their whereabouts, because even though those creditors had gotten their capital back, they still did not want to let go of this person who almost caused them to lose all their wealth. Furthermore, someone had bought a house for this investment, so even if they could get their capital back, they would not be able to change that house back.
