Chapter 516: Chapter 523

Chapter 523 Do You Not Know For that reason, Feng Jialing felt very conflicted. She glanced at Ouyang Duo but said nothing.

She had been married to the man for decades, so she knew the kind of person he was all too well.

If he were enraged, there was a possibility that he would kick her and her daughter out.

“I think your father’s suggestion makes sense. I’m of the same opinion. In the situation at hand, the netizens will only condemn you relentlessly if you stay here. Besides, all you’ll be able to do is hide at home every day, not daring to leave the house. In that case, it’s better for you to live abroad for some time. Consider it a vacation and forget about this matter,” she coaxed gently.

Ouyang Qing’s panic snowballed when she saw that her mother was not siding with her.

She initially wanted to throw a fit once more but decided against it on second thought. If the entire family gangs up on me, it’ll be even worse for me.

“All right, then. I’ll book a flight ticket and leave as soon as possible,” she relented.

“That’s not going to work. I’ll have the driver send you away tonight itself so that you can board the flight in another city, lest you get photographed by the paparazzi,” Ouyang Duo declared in a frosty voice.

“I still have some matters to handle, so I’ll leave by myself.”

“What are those matters? I can have my subordinates handle them for you,” Ouyang Duo countered.

“Are you really in such a rush to have me leave, Dad? Now that everyone knows I’ve had a scandal, many paparazzi are lying in wait for me at the airport. Once I make an appearance, I’ll be caught right away! Isn’t it safer to stay for a bit before leaving?” Ouyang Qing contended.

Hearing that, Ouyang Duo felt that it indeed made sense. “Fine. You can stay for a day before leaving, then. However, you can only remain here without going anywhere else! A word of warning—if you dare take a step out of the house and get caught by the paparazzi, I’ll definitely sever my relationship with you!”

After saying that, he stalled over to Ouyang Qi.

Worried that he would be hit again, Ouyang Qi hurriedly covered his head.

“Why didn’t you act when I ordered you to ruin that actress’ reputation? Now, she has ruined your sister’s reputation instead!” Ouyang Duo roared.

“I haven’t managed to come up with an idea yet. Such a thing can’t be rushed,” Ouyang Qi parried.

“Starting tomorrow, all your cards will be suspended and can only be used when you’ve destroyed Nan Chen’s woman’s reputation! I’ve already warned those in the company that whoever dares lend you any money will be going against me. Therefore, no one dares lend you a single cent now!” Ouyang Duo announced.

“What? I’m not going to have any money when you suspend my cards, so I won’t be able to accomplish it either. You can’t do this,” Ouyang Qi bemoaned.

“I gave you a chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. There’s no room for negotiation. Your cards will be restored the day you accomplish that mission! I’m not going to support a bunch of useless creatures!”

Ouyang Duo berated.

That “bunch of useless creatures” evidently included Ouyang Qing.

He had high hopes for her, yet she had now become his greatest shame. Thus, he was inevitably disappointed and incensed.

When he finished tearing into them, he whirled around to leave in a fit of rage.

Upon noticing that Feng Jialing was still standing there without any intention of leaving, he bellowed at her, “Why are you still standing there? Are you thinking of shielding her again? Are the lot of you going against me so that I’ll be thoroughly mortified in my golden years?”

By then, Feng Jialing had calmed down completely. She no longer went against the man but along with him.

After they left, Ouyang Qi made to leave as well.

While he was Ouyang Qing’s brother, the latter had always looked down upon him and never showed him any respect. Hence, there was nothing to be said between them.

This time, however, Ouyang Qing called him back, “Where are you going?”

How novel! She’s actually minding my business?

“How is that any business of yours? Mind your own business first,” Ouyang Qi sneered.

“I didn’t say that it’s my business. I’m just curious about where you can go when Dad has suspended all your cards. Do you have the money to fill your petrol tank? Do you have the money to ask girls out for meals and have fun? Without money, you’re nothing, not even a rich playboy!” Ouyang Qing scoffed coldly.

That was indeed true, and it had Ouyang Qi stunned.

Now that I’ve got no money, I really have nowhere to go. Money isn’t everything, but without money, everything is impossible!

“You’ve got no options left, huh? And you can’t do anything now, can you?” Ouyang Qing chuckled icily.

“Oh, you can still laugh? Even if I can’t do anything, I can seek out some friends and get a few free meals out of them. The same can’t be said of you. You don’t even dare leave the house now, yet you dare ridicule me?” Ouyang Qi likewise mocked with a snicker.

“I can give you money,” Ouyang Qing offered.

“Huh? What did you just say?”

Ouyang Qi thought he had misheard her.

She has never bothered about me, but she voluntarily offered to give me money now? That’s impossible!

“I’ve got money, and I can give you some, but you’ve got to help me with something,” Ouyang Qing drawled.

“What kind of help do you need? Are you planning to order me to deal with Ding Mi again? I’ve told you long ago that the possibility of you marrying Nan Chen has nothing to do with anyone else. It all depends on whether he has any interest in you! But you never bother reflecting upon yourself, urging me to sabotage others instead. Such mentality and attitude are erroneous!” Ouyang Qi lectured.

“No, I’m going to deal with her myself. You’re useless, so you’re not her match at all. Thus, I can’t count on you anyway,” Ouyang Qing stated in a chilly voice.

“How could you say such a thing? How rude! Would you need my help if you’re not useless? Hurry up and tell me what exactly you want me to do!”

“I don’t want to go abroad, so I want you to help dupe Dad that I’ve already gone abroad.” Ouyang Qing finally revealed her motive.

“How am I going to do that? I can’t go abroad on your behalf, can I?”

“I’ll find a place and hide. You only need to tell him you saw me boarding the plane with your own eyes.

After that, you’ll also need to lend me a hand if I need any help,” Ouyang Qing explained.

“But you haven’t specified what kind of help you need from me. You’ve got to spell it out first. I’m not going to agree if it’s something bad.”

At that, Ouyang Qing sneered, “You’ve gotten it into your head that you’re someone good, huh? Do you not know the kind of person you are?”

“I’m not a good person, but there are some things I’ll never do!”

“Mainly, you only need to help me dupe Dad. As for the rest, I’ll only ask you to run errands at most. If it’s really something serious, I won’t dare entrust it to you either.”

Ouyang Qi contemplated for a moment before agreeing, “Okay. How much will you give me, then?”

“I can give you a supplementary card with a monthly limit of two hundred thousand.”

“Two hundred thousand? That’s a pittance!” Ouyang Qi griped.

“It’s already a king’s ransom. Considering your current situation, having some money is better than none!”

That’s true. I’m in dire straits now, so having two hundred thousand is better than having nary a dime!

“Okay, I agree. However, I’m making this clear first—I’m not going to do it if you want me to hurt someone else, especially Ding Mi! She has never hurt me, so I can’t hurt her!”
