Chapter 769: Ouyang Family Preparing for Marriage
?
When Zi Yi woke up and ca down the stairs the next morning, she saw the two brothers standing outside the door and having a conversation.
By the ti she walked to the door, she just so happened to hear Lu Jingye saying, “I’ll take care of this. You can just keep an eye on the Ouyang Family.”
Lu Jingye turned around and looked in the direction of the door.
Zi Yi ca out from behind it and more or less guessed what had happened. “The corpses last night were the Ouyang Family’s work?”
“Yes.”
Lu Yunxiao greeted her and turned to head towards the backyard.
Lu Jingye ca over and pulled the hoodie up on Zi Yi’s clothes. “It’s cold this morning. Why are you wearing so little?”
“It’s not little.”
They walked inside together and on the way, Zi Yi asked, “Why did the Ouyang Family do that?”
No matter what conflicts the eight great aristocratic families had with each other, they would not do such things for no reason unless there was so hidden grievance.
“Yunxiao took away the Eldest Young Miss of the Ouyang Family, Ouyang Qing. She claid that we killed Ouyang Ming.”
Zi Yi sneered. “Did these people hear sothing through hearsay? Even if we really did kill Ouyang Ming, he deserved it.”
“Yes.”
Just then, Mrs. Lu ca out of the kitchen. When she saw both of them standing at the door, she asked Zi Yi, “Yiyi, are you hungry?”
Zi Yi nodded her head. Her appetite was growing day by day and right now, she would be hungry after getting a good night’s sleep.
Mrs. Lu said to Lu Jingye, “Jingye, go call for your Father and younger brother. We’ll start eating right away.”
“Okay.” Lu Jingye turned around and wanted to head out. Zi Yi followed behind him.
Mrs. Lu said, “Yiyi, it’s cold outside, don’t go out.”
“Mom, I’m not afraid of the cold.” Zi Yi said that and followed Lu Jingye outside.
When they were walking towards the backyard, Zi Yi asked, “Yunxiao arrested Ouyang Qing. What was the reaction from the Ouyang Family?”
“The Ouyang Family Head ca to look for Yunxiao but to no avail. He called in the middle of the night. I didn’t answer it and he called again this morning.”
Zi Yi was currently pregnant and Lu Jingye’s phone was placed sowhere further away and it was also on silent mode. Unless it was a special phone call, he would not hear nor answer any other calls.
“What did the Ouyang Family Head say?”
“He said this is a misunderstanding.”
“Ha… misunderstanding? I think he’s lying with his eyes open.”
They did not hesitate to kill several people in order to fra her by throwing the corpses outside her racing club. If her club wasn’t as high-tech and the robots did not notice the commotion, she would be the unlucky one.
“How do you plan to take care of Ouyang Qing?”
“The cri of planning and committing murder is death by firing line.”
“In that case, if that happens we would completely have a falling out with the Ouyang Family, right?”
“It doesn’t matter. In any case, so families no longer have the right to remain as one of the eight great aristocratic families.”
Zi Yi was a little surprised to hear that coming from him, but she sohow felt that it was within expectations.
Lu Jingye had done so many preparations previously and to think that it’s because he already had such plans for a long ti.
While talking, they arrived at the backyard. Second Master Lu and Lu Yunxiao were both training. Zi Yi called out to them and said, “Father, Yunxiao. Mom is asking us to co over to have breakfast.”
The both of them stopped fighting.
Second Master Lu clearly knew what happened last night and said to the two brothers, “Deal with his matter properly. Even though the Ouyang Family is not as powerful as before, they are still one of the eight great aristocratic families.”
“I understand. I have already made arrangents,” Lu Jingye said.
Today was destined to be an extraordinary day.
When the news that Ouyang Qing and the boss of Xiangyan Flower Field conspired together to kill several n was released on the internet without any control, the whole internet exploded.
There was a wave of curses and calls for the culprits to be shot to death.
The release of the news ca too suddenly and they could not suppress it at all. The Ouyang Family instantly fell into panic.
The younger generation of the Ouyang Family’s females gathered together and discussed a counterasure.
“What should we do? Lu Jingye must be working behind the scenes. Now that this incident has been brought into the spotlight, Eldest Sister is definitely a goner.” Ouyang Li was the youngest and ranked sixth among the sisters. Speaking of this, she suddenly started to cry.
Ouyang Ruan, ranked third among them, clenched her fists and said with a heavy voice. “We cannot sit still and wait for death. Lu Jingye hard our Eldest Sister and he will definitely be aiming for our Ouyang Family next.”
Ouyang Xue, the fifth among them, had a furious expression. “They killed my younger brother and are now aiming for our eldest sister. I will not let them go just like that.”
She headed outside having said that.
“Fifth Sister, stop right there.” The fourth among them, Ouyang Hui furrowed her eyebrows and stopped her from leaving. “Now’s not the ti for us to be impulsive. We have to find a way to suppress the comnts on the internet first.”
Speaking of this, traces of sadness flashed past her eyes. “We can’t save her, but father and the rest of our family have a way.”
Ouyang Xue furrowed her eyebrows. “If they really had a way, Eldest Sister would have been rescued last night.”
Ouyang Hui looked at her. “Then what can you do? You’ll just be sending yourself to your death even if you went.”
Ouyang Ruan said, “Right now, there’s only one thod left.”
“What is it?” The few of them looked at her.
“Marriage,” Ouyang Ruan said, “We aren’t the only families who want to deal with Lu Jingye. There’s still the Dongfang Family, He Family, and Qin Family. As long as we unite, would we still have to be afraid of Lu Jingye?”
A few of them thought about it and felt that this thod was feasible.
“In that case, let’s go and talk to Uncle. As long as the four families unite, I don’t believe we can’t deal with Lu Jingye.”
The best way of working together among the wealthy and influential families was through marriage. The other three families hated Lu Jingye to their guts and after hearing the Ouyang Family’s proposal, they all agreed.
Second Madam He heard of this news and imdiately went looking for He Fei, who was working hard to check the accounts. “The Ouyang Family released news of wanting to connect with our family through marriage. Don’t stay in the room all day, this is a good opportunity.”
At the ntion of marriage, He Fei subconsciously rejected her idea. “Mother, this is not a good ti for marriage.”
“How is it not a good ti? Our second house needs a marriage right now so that we don’t get bullied by the first house. Otherwise…”
At the ntion of this, Second Madam He could not continue speaking and started wiping her tears.
He Fei knew that his Mother had been worried that the first house would secretly deal with them. He stood up and ca over to her, “Mother, the most important thing now is for to take over Father’s company as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be snatched away by Uncle and the rest.”
“Marriage and taking over the company don’t clash.” Second Madam He was adamant about him marrying into the Ouyang Family. “What’s more, you had a good relationship with Ouyang Ming and it’ll only benefit our family if you do get married to one of them.”
He Fei furrowed his eyebrows. He did not wish to marry anyone from the Ouyang Family.
Second Madam He saw through his thoughts and continued wiping her tears. “Are you still going to remain stubborn at this point in ti? Do you know that because of your stubbornness, your father got killed and in the end, he didn’t even have anyone to send him off.”
He Fei felt his heart tremble. This incident would forever be a sore spot for him. He clenched his fists and said with great difficulty, “Mother, I will think about it.”
