Chapter 231 - Injury, Blame
Chapter 231: Injury, Blame
Ouyang Tian’s expression changed slightly when he saw Yan Kuan appear. Although he was still smiling, they still felt that there was a lot of perfunctory meaning in it.
Of course, it was perfunctory. Someone had just broken into the Ouyang family’s inner courtyard and entered the territory. If his guards had not discovered it in time, the secrets of this territory would have been spied on.
However, that person ran extremely fast. He did not know if they had caught him. However, that person had just been shot, so he should not have run far.
Ouyang Tian even deliberately looked at Yan Kuan’s arm. It seemed to move freely. He even held onto the other person’s hand. If he had been shot, it should not have been so natural, right?
However, this person was the Black Emperor. What if he was enduring it? Or what if the person who seemed to have hit the target actually dodged it? What if the bloodstains were from the injured guards? There were still a few corpses lying in the backyard. Should he probe further? He wouldn’t miss it, but he couldn’t offend the Black Emperor casually.
At least, he couldn’t offend him tonight. As for after tonight, hmph, it wasn’t up to him to decide.
“It’s normal for young people to be addicted to smoking. It’s just that I heard that Ning’er accidentally dirtied your clothes. I’m sorry.”
“Eldest Madam is too polite. It’s just a piece of clothing. It’s fine.”
Both Huo Wanting and Ouyang Tian glanced at Yan Kuan’s shirt at the same time. It was really white and clean. It seemed that he really had changed his clothes.
Huo Wanting gave Ouyang Jincheng a look, and Ouyang Jincheng nodded indiscernibly. They all knew what had happened just now, but they did not expect the old man to suspect Yan Kuan.
Ouyang Jincheng secretly gestured behind his back, and the maid immediately left.
“It’s nothing. Miss An Ning was very guilty just now, and it made me feel a little embarrassed. Where is Miss An Ning? I want to apologize to her face to face.”
Shen Xiaoxiao was secretly happy. This Yan Kuan was indeed an instant kill. Didn’t he want to get something on them? Now that they had found An Ning, it would naturally be another good show.
However, Yan Kuan did not seem to have any feelings for An Ning at all. With such a move, it was very likely that An Ning’s reputation would be ruined. That invasion of the pig cage was still fresh in her memory. Wouldn’t it be too much?
“Don’t worry, they can’t bear to part with her!”
He said don’t worry, but he said it in secret. Did Yan Kuan really guess everything? He could even guess what she was thinking in her heart?
Shen Xiaoxiao lowered her head and did not say anything. She looked at his right hand that was holding hers. There seemed to be something wrong with this hand.
It was a little red, and there was a faint smell of blood at the tip of her nose. Her sense of smell and vision was much more sensitive than ordinary people.
Shen Xiaoxiao was getting more and more worried. Could he be hurt?
“You…”
“Nothing.”
Her words were once again blocked by him. This was not the time to ask about this. Shen Xiaoxiao’s hand held him even harder. After calming down for a long time, she raised her head and looked around.
“Why hasn’t An Ning come out yet?”
“Soon, soon…”
Huo Wanting’s expression was no longer good. This wretched girl was used to finding things to do.
Just as Huo Wanting was about to go numb from staring at Ouyang Tian under the immense pressure, a servant quickly walked in and whispered a few words into Huo Wanting’s ear.
Huo Wanting was shocked. “What?”
“What happened? Boss’s?”
Ouyang Tian swept his gaze over. Huo Wanting’s expression became like a color palette, making people feel very strange. She opened her mouth but could not say anything.
Just as Huo Wanting was thinking about what to do, a cry suddenly sounded from outside.
“Grandfather, Father, you have to make a decision for me…”
Huo Wanting’s heart paused. This idiot, how could she be so stupid? How could she dare to come here and cause trouble? If she didn’t cover up such a stupid matter herself, would she have to announce it to the public? When the clan rules came down, Huo Wanting wouldn’t be said to be ruthless.
However, once the clan rules came down, the face of their clan would be completely gone. As expected, this wretched girl was born to oppose her.
“What happened? Ning’er, why are you crying?”
The first to speak was Ouyang Jincheng. Huo Wanting looked at him with some reproach. Her husband had doted on this wretched girl since she was young. Looking at her crying appearance, it seemed like he was going to stand up for her again.
However, this matter must not be provoked. Huo Wanting quietly turned her body and made a hand gesture to her youngest son behind her. Although the youngest son, Ouyang Zheng, was only 24 years old, he was the smartest. When he saw her mother’s hand gesture… He immediately reacted and pulled the second son beside him. The second son was passed to the boss. Alright, now the boss understood. He immediately pulled his father, Ouyang Jincheng.
As the eldest son of the eldest son of the first wife, when there was something, it could be communicated.
Ouyang Jincheng a look at this gesture. His face suddenly changed. The sentence that just fell was ignored, and he immediately closed his mouth, no longer speaking for a long time.
Ah Ning was less important than the reputation of this house, so there was no need to choose between the two.
Huo Wanting glanced at Ouyang Jincheng and laughed mockingly. The people of the Ouyang family were all so cold and indifferent. Usually, they were in so much pain that it was like eyeballs. At a critical moment, they didn’t even need to think before making a choice.
Now, she felt a little pity for Ouyang Ning. She was born into the wrong body. Why did she come to the Ouyang family to be a daughter?
“What’s the fuss about? Ning’er, this is the banquet hall.”
Ouyang Jincheng would not speak when Ouyang Tian was around. Moreover, Huo Wanting had taken over the authority. Ouyang Jincheng only needed to remain calm and composed.
“Grandpa, Grandpa, you have to make a decision for me.”
Now, Huo Wanting did not have to deal with the matter since she called her grandpa directly. At least she did not have to step out to deal with it. She could also pretend to be stupid.
“What’s going on?”
Ouyang Tian didn’t look good either. Why was An Ning so impatient today?
An Ning ran to Ouyang Tian and knelt down. She cried and pointed at Shen Xiaoxiao who was standing at the side as if she had suffered a great grievance. She cried loudly:
“Grandpa, that b*tch Shen Xiaoxiao tried to ruin my innocence. She knocked me out and threw me into Fifth Brother’s room. Fortunately, my maid came to find me. Otherwise, she would have ruined me!”
“Wow… It can’t be, right? So explosive? …Is she trying to invade a pig cage? …I can’t tell that Miss Shen is quite capable!”
These things happened one after another in her ears. Shen Xiaoxiao looked at An Ning’s stupid look. Was her brain really a pig’s brain?
“Miss An Ning, this isn’t a movie. This scene is too much. We’re not idiots if it’s so fake.”
“This is the Ouyang family, the Ouyang family. How can you be harmed by an outsider like me in your own home? Are you addicted to acting?”
“You b*tch, don’t deny it. I have a witness. Grandpa, I have a witness. Fifth Brother, Fifth Brother is the witness!”
Ouyang Tian’s face darkened. The younger generation of the Ouyang family was getting worse with each generation. However, now that the matter had reached this stage, he could only shout, “Let Feng’er come over!”
