The old man had been sulking at home and rarely asked about the group affairs, ignoring Ouyang Jue, who probably had an urgent matter at hand. He knew that Xu Mengyun had also invited Ouyang Gu to attend the wedding, and he had wanted to go with her alone to prevent too much pressure on her, but it would be best if Ouyang Gu agreed to go with them.
His appearance would let everyone believe that Ning Caier had already been accepted by the Ouyang Family, and this would be the best outcome for both him and Cai'er.
"Are you going to take the woman to the wedding tomorrow?"
Ouyang Gu's phone call went straight to the point, he immediately asked about Ning Caier's matters, with a voice so loud that even Ning Caier could hear him. Ouyang Jue originally wanted to go somewhere else to answer the phone, in case Ouyang Gu said something that would hurt Ning Caier's phone. However, she stopped him. Hiding wasn't an option, she also wanted to know what Ouyang Gu's thoughts were on this matter.
"A Jue, let me tell you, that woman is not allowed to appear at tomorrow's wedding. Otherwise, don't recognize me as your father!"
He did not care what kind of woman he had a relationship with, but now that he had actually gotten to the point of getting married, he had to intervene. Unless he died, the Ouyang Family would definitely not acknowledge such a woman as daughter-in-law.
If he announced in front of so many people that Ouyang Family was going to marry a commoner woman as his wife, he would smash his head into a wall at the banquet, making him the sinner of Xu Family and the entire business world!
Ning Caier could hear her anger, and she could even imagine his sharp gaze and reproachful gaze. Compared to Xu Mengyun, this daughter-in-law, she was obviously unqualified, and even lacking in merits.
She understood her own identity, so she took off the necklace around her neck, indicating that she didn't need to attend the wedding. She felt that it would be very awkward to meet the Ouyang family's old patriarch.
"Dad, tomorrow Cai'er will be attending as my fiancée, so there won't be any change in this matter. I think it's best if you don't waste your energy. If you don't want to see us, you can leave. I'll tell her about Meng Yun."
did not allow Ning Caier to shrink back at this moment. Tomorrow was also the day that Xu Mengyun would announce her engagement, he wanted to show off Ning Caier's wedding ring in front of all the media so that everyone would know that he, this CEO Tian Ao's famous grass, had an owner. If Ning Caier did not go, then the wait for this moment would have no meaning at all.
But Ouyang Gu didn't care, his coming or not was meaningless to Ouyang Jue, so he asked her father to do as she pleased.
"Ouyang Jue!" Ouyang Gu shouted angrily on the phone, but Ouyang Jue had already hung up, he looked at Ning Caier and made a helpless gesture, the old man was indeed difficult to persuade, but tomorrow, even if Ouyang Jue went to the wedding, he would definitely give Xu Family face, and would not do anything rash.
Ouyang Jue took the necklace. He planned to put it on Ning Caier's neck again, but this time, she took a step back and didn't want to accept these things.
"Let's break up." Ning Caier shouted out from the bottom of her heart. She used to think that their love would be able to defeat everything in this world, but only now did she realize that they wouldn't be able to win against anything. He couldn't persuade his father, and she couldn't convince her parents.
"Break up?"
Ouyang Jue was extremely surprised after hearing Ning Caier's words, he simply could not believe that the two words came from her mouth. She had clearly agreed to his proposal, but why was her emotions so stirred up after that?
"Cai'er, has someone been talking to you recently, or is it that my family is giving you pressure?"
Ouyang Jue didn't know what had happened and could only guess it himself. He extended both of his hands over, but Ning Caier immediately retreated back to the side of the cupboard, she turned his head away and did not seem to be willing to give him the slightest opportunity.
"Ouyang Ziyun, we are not from the same world. There won't be any good results if we force ourselves to stay together."
Ning Caier casually used the lotion that she used to make up her own finger and smeared it twice. That ring that was specially designed only turned a little under the effect of this kind of lubricant and then came out, just like all the promises made between them, it could not withstand any pressure from the outside world.
Ning Caier placed the ring in front of Ouyang Jue, and told him firmly, "Let's end it, there's still time."
She bit her lower lip. She didn't want to cry, but tears kept streaming down her face. Her heart was extremely reluctant, but she had no choice but to do so. Long pain didn't mean short vomiting.
"How can you take the ring off so easily?" Ouyang Jue wanted to see Ning Caier's finger. He was very clear about the design of this ring, even with the help of other lubricants, he was afraid that it would leave a deep imprint on her finger.
"I regret it. I don't want to get married anymore, okay?" Ning Caier placed both her hands behind her back, and shook her head with all her might. She could not hesitate at all, as long as there was even the slightest bit of hesitation, she would immediately soften her heart.
"No matter what happens, you have to go with me to Xu Mengyun's wedding. She treats you so well, if she can't see you, how much she will guess.
Ouyang Jue was stunned by Ning Caier's sudden action, he could only use Xu Mengyun as an excuse to delay them for a day or two, and take this opportunity to investigate Ning Caier's predicament, if not, with Ning Caier's personality, he would probably leave the city or even this country after walking out of the door.
"Fine, I promise you, but I will not appear as your fiancee, and I will not take back this ring."
After Ning Caier finished speaking, she walked out of the room. She had locked herself in her office all day, as if this was the only way for her to gain a moment of peace and quiet. She covered her ears with her hands and did not make any calls, afraid that if anyone advised her, she would lose the courage to part ways.
Therefore, he did not entrust this matter to someone else to investigate. Instead, he directly went to the Xu Family to ask his what had happened to Ning Caier that day, it had only been a few days, so how could she have made such a huge change?
Xu Mengyun's residence was filled with celebration as everyone was preparing for the wedding. Although it was a Western style wedding, the room was still plastered with red words of joy, the redness in their eyes gradually turned into the blood flowing from Ouyang Jue's heart. Although he knew it was not appropriate to ask Xu Mengyun about it at this time, he did not have much time, so she could only come and disturb them at this time.
"Why did you come today? I'm very busy right now, I'm afraid I don't have time to greet you."
When Xu Mengyun saw that Ouyang Jue had entered, she did not stop her work. Before a large scale event happened, Xu Mengyun had used to check all the parts of the journey, not to mention that this was her wedding so she could not be careless.
She held a huge pile of information in her hands and looked at the chair in front of her. Although her eyes were occupied, she could still split one of her ears to listen to Ouyang Jue.
"That's right, CEO Ouyang, what kind of major event must we come here today?"
Xu Mengyun was being courteous, but Ling Tian, who was sitting beside, had a ugly expression on his face, and for some reason, his speed slowed down. He had actually still not finished off Ouyang Jue, and allowed him the chance to attend his wedding, so unless he came today to tell him that he was unable to attend tomorrow's wedding, he did not want to hear anything.
"I just want to ask Mengyun, did Cai'er say anything or ask you anything after coming that day?"
Ouyang Jue and Xu Mengyun's conversation was always direct, he knew that she wouldn't try to persuade Ning Caier to leave her, so her words probably meant the truth, but this true expression was very likely the key to Ning Caier leaving him, "Mengyun, today Cai'er asked me to break up with his, and he even took off his engagement ring."
Ouyang Jue initially said this matter because he wanted to tell Xu Mengyun how serious this matter was, thus he wanted to disturb her the day before her wedding. But this news was like a bolt from the blue to Ling Tian, he naturally knew how important Ouyang Jue was in his heart.
"Ouyang Jue, what do you mean?" Ouyang Jue, what do you mean? Ling Tian suddenly stood up from the sofa, he grabbed Ouyang Jue's collar and planned to throw him out. He had admired Xu Mengyun for a long time, and only after working hard for so long could she achieve the desired result.
"I don't have any other intentions, but I want to clarify Cai'er's problem and apply the right medicine." Ouyang Jue did not retaliate. He could understand the rage and insanity Ling Tian was currently experiencing. He only wanted to know the reason behind it.
"The Miss Ning did ask me a few things. She asked me how a marriage that was not right would affect her life and her family." Xu Mengyun remembered the conversation she had with Ning Caier that day, so it was within her expectation that she would ask Ouyang Jue to break up.
"Then what did you say?" Ning Caier had roughly understood the reason behind this after hearing about this matter from Xu Mengyun. Ning Caier could let herself be wronged, but she could not let her own family suffer grievances. And today, Ouyang Gu's call had become the last straw that broke Ning Caier's back.
Ning Caier was afraid that her parents would one day be criticized and humiliated by her, which was why she insisted on leaving him, so that no one else would have the chance to attack her parents.
"I'm telling the truth." Xu Mengyun's answer was very concise. Both she and Ouyang Jue were born in a rich family, so Ouyang Jue would naturally understand the rules inside without her saying much.
"Sorry, Mengyun, sorry to disturb you." Ouyang Jue, who was standing at the side, naturally understood what they meant. He did not care about the outcome of Ning Caier, but what he was afraid of was that Xu Mengyun would waver, and they had not signed their names on the marriage certificate yet. If she went back on her words now, he could not do anything about it.
He slowly moved his body closer to Xu Mengyun, and realised that she was still checking out the sequence of events, just that although her eyes were fixated on the colourful scenes, she did not flip over another page, as though she was in a daze.
"Mengyun, if there's anything you're not satisfied with, we can change it. If you think the station is in a hurry, we can extend it for a while."
