Chapter 344: Seeking Cooperation and Stalling For Time
Shen Xiaoxiao listened to 19’s report in surprise. Ouyang Le had asked her to have afternoon tea with her, and she had even asked her out many times? Was there something wrong with that?
Not to mention friends.h.i.+p, she and Ouyang Le were rivals in love. Moreover, they were sworn enemies in love. How could Ouyang Le ask her to have afternoon tea with her? A weasel paying a New Year’s visit to a chicken? Wasn’t her purpose too clear?
“She asked me out for tea? 19, are you sure it’s not your boss, but me?”
“Yes, it’s indeed Miss.”
This time, Shen Xiaoxiao was energized. She was the one who asked her out. This was really fun. Yan Kuan had already left, and this person had already arrived. Yan Kuan had said that she could not leave the villa. Even a fool could see that there was a conspiracy. Was Ouyang Le sick?
“Have you rejected it?”
“I have already rejected it. However, Ouyang Le has just sent a message saying that if it is not convenient for her to go out, she is willing to pay a visit. Furthermore, she has also said that she has already left the Ouyang family. At this moment, she is here alone with her ident.i.ty. She hopes to bury the hatchet with Miss.”
“Hahahaha, the more I think about it, the more I want to laugh. 19, what do you think Ouyang Le’s brain is made of? What is she thinking? Didn’t they say that she is the most intelligent descendant of the Ouyang family? How could she do something so stupid and so laughable?”
Shen Xiaoxiao really couldn’t help but laugh at Ouyang Le. After all, normal people knew that there was no need for the two of them to reconcile. It was simply impossible for the two of them to get along well because her surname was Ouyang. Just this alone was enough.
“But to come to our door at this time, it seems that Ouyang Le also wants to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion for the position of the Ouyang family’s head.”
Shen Xiaoxiao’s words stunned 19. Ouyang Le also wanted to partic.i.p.ate? Wasn’t she a woman? Would the Ouyang family allow a woman to be the head of the family?
“Miss, how can the Ouyang family allow a woman to be the head of the family?”
“Why not? If the Ouyang family can’t find a useful man, then they can only let a woman be the head of the family. When the time comes, the next head of the family can choose from the younger generation. It’s not difficult.”
“Then Miss, are you going to meet Ouyang Le or not?”
Shen Xiaoxiao fumbled around with the milk cup on the table. After a while, she said, “No, it’s not the right time to meet. Let’s cool her down first and see how patient she is.”
This cold lasted for two days. During this period, there was no news from Yan Kuan and the others, except for the news of Shen Xiaoxiao’s safety.
On the first day that Yan Kuan and the others came back, the villa received the news that Ouyang Le was going to visit again. However, this time, it was not only Ouyang Le who came, but also Pei Li.
“If the two of them work together, they might really be able to break out of the Ouyang family. However, in the end, the compet.i.tion between the two of them will be even more intense.”
“Miss, do you want to meet?”
“Yes, I want to meet them in the villa area next door. Didn’t they say that there were always people pretending to be me in the villa area next door? It’s better to be cautious. If anything happens, we have a way out. These two people came to our door so many times impatiently because they were determined to meet me. Moreover, they chose this time period. It’s obvious that they must have a purpose. Perhaps they are trying to suppress me to deal with Yan Kuan.”
“I will arrange everything properly. Nothing will happen.”
“Okay.”
…
“Boss, a black-clothed man ran away. The rest of the people are here, and there are also these research materials.”
This time, they had completely wiped out this shocking research room. The only pity was that the black-clothed man ran away. However, the black-clothed man’s arm and right leg were both injured. If Boss personally acted, it would be strange if his arm and leg weren’t crippled… When the time came, as long as they could find the person whose leg and hand was injured at the same time. They would be able to dig him out.
“Send this information back to China. Remember, pin it all on the Ouyang family. Everyone else, prepare to withdraw.”
Yun Qi smiled. Boss’s idea was absolute. Using those people to deal with the Ouyang family would be even more effective with half the effort.
“Boss, you’re in a hurry to go back and see sister-in-law? Don’t worry, she’ll definitely be fine.”
Yan Kuan’s heart had been pounding all day. He was always worried that something bad would happen. Five minutes ago, he had confirmed that Xiaoxiao was fine, but his sixth sense would never go wrong. Would something happen to Xiaoxiao?
…
“Xiaoxiao, believe me, I really don’t know how this could have happened. We’ve been engaged since we were young. When we were young, you liked to play behind me so much. Why can’t you give me a chance? I don’t mind you having someone else’s child in your belly. Really, I don’t mind at all.”
“But I do mind. I mind seeing your face, because every time I see you, I can’t help but feel nauseous. Also, I haven’t given birth yet. If you want to find a pregnant woman, don’t look for me. To be honest, I feel sorry for you. Why do you still think that you’re a heartthrob?”
Pei Li’s face was livid from Shen Xiaoxiao’s sarcastic words. He knew that Shen Xiaoxiao was sharp-tongued, but to say that he was infertile in front of so many people made him feel extremely aggrieved. He really wanted to tear this woman to shreds. No… He wanted to torture this woman to death. So what if he couldn’t do it? As long as today pa.s.sed, this woman would sooner or later be played to death by him.
Ouyang Le did not speak. She had been looking around vigilantly. She thought that she had done a good job, but 19 had already seen her every move clearly.
This appearance was consistent with the Ouyang Le in the investigation report.
What was the purpose of these two people coming here? To create a sense of presence? Or to seek abuse?
“Let’s get to the point. Tell me, what is the purpose of the two of you coming here today?”
Shen Xiaoxiao’s direct statement made Pei Li and Ouyang Le look at each other. How could Shen Xiaoxiao be so sure that they had come here for a purpose?
However, since they had already been caught, it was better to say it directly. Their purpose was to stall for time. As long as there was enough time, it was up to them to decide what to do with Shen Xiaoxiao.
Pei Li glanced at Ouyang Le and decided to speak for himself.
“We want to cooperate with Yan Kuan. As long as Yan Kuan can help us get the Ouyang family, we are willing to give up 30% of the Ouyang family’s territory in China.”
This bait was indeed very attractive, but Shen Xiaoxiao did not believe that the two of them were here to seek cooperation. Looking at what Pei Li had done just now, she did not believe that he had any ulterior motives.
“Looks like you guys don’t like to tell the truth anymore. Since you’re not going to tell the truth, let’s stop here. You and I both know why you’re stalling for time. However, let me tell you clearly. Regardless of whether Yan Kuan can make it back in time or not, the two of you won’t be able to leave in time…”
