Ouyang Feifei entered the most luxurious VIP private room at Chu Yuan Hotel's fifth-floor café with Ouyang Huihui, only to see a very elegantly dressed, beautiful woman sitting at the table, sipping coffee gracefully.
She immediately recognized her as Northern Group's helmswoman and former Yanjing's Number One Beauty, Ling Ruonan, with whom she had dealt before.
Another beautiful woman with big-framed glasses stood expressionlessly to the side.
Ouyang Feifei also knew this woman; she was Ling Ruonan's assistant and most trusted aide, Wuyue.
"Mr. Ling, I am really sorry," Ouyang Feifei approached and apologized first, "I've kept you waiting."
Although Ling Ruonan had aged, she was well-maintained and didn't show any signs of aging. Even though Ouyang Feifei was very confident in all aspects of herself, she still felt the pressure from Ling Ruonan.
"President Ouyang, you should know why I asked to see you tonight," Ling Ruonan said, looking at Ouyang Feifei with an unkind face as she took a seat, then glaring at Ouyang Huihui beside her, who looked utterly petrified. "I am very angry today!"
"I'm sorry," Ouyang Feifei apologized again and explained the reasons and the process, "My grandfather wanted to invite him for a meal and to have him check our health. Grandfather Luo mentioned in his letter that my illness hasn't fully recovered, and these one or two years are the best time for treatment, so my grandfather wanted to have him look at me and, by the way, invite him to dinner to catch up on old times. So Huihui took him there to eat."
As she spoke, Ouyang Feifei turned her head to look at Ouyang Huihui beside her who didn't dare to raise her head, "They had an unpleasant encounter the first time they met. When the car arrived at the villa today, it just so happened that Li Dongjun, with his bodyguards, was going out. Li Dongjun has been pursuing me and also wants to pursue Huihui. Hearing that Huihui was bullied, he immediately came out to stand up for her, and a conflict arose between them as a result."
Ouyang Feifei rarely spoke so much at once, but today was an exception.
However, Ling Ruonan didn't give her any face and said harshly, "You make it sound so light, 'a conflict arose.' He was alone, and Li Dongjun called so many people, even firing a gun. If he hadn't been skilled in martial arts from a young age, he might have ended up dead by now."
As she said this, Ling Ruonan's eyes reddened, and her lips were tightly pursed.
"I'm sorry," Ouyang Feifei apologized once more, "My grandfather has already made the position clear to Li Jiacheng and his son, asking them to make amends."
"I don't want any compensation; I want Li Dongjun's life," Ling Ruonan's face revealed a murderous intent, "I will not allow anyone to bully him."
Ling Ruonan's demand startled Ouyang Huihui and also deeply shocked Ouyang Feifei.
"Mr. Ling," Ouyang Huihui, who had been silent up to now, stuttered, "This matter is my responsibility. I just wanted to let off some steam, I didn't expect it to turn out like this. If you want to vent your anger, take it out on me, I'm willing to accept all punishment."
"If he had died, what do you think I should do? What could I have done?" Ling Ruonan struggled to control her emotions, glaring furiously at Ouyang Feifei and Ouyang Huihui, "Twenty years have passed, and I barely had the chance to get him to return to Yanjing. He came back, and before I even had the chance to see him, you almost cost him his life. I'm telling you, if anything had really happened to him, you would have been expected to die with him."
This chilling threat from Ling Ruonan made even the usually composed Ouyang Feifei shiver, not to mention the inexperienced Ouyang Huihui.
At that moment, Ouyang Feifei's assistant, Wang Qing, came in, holding a cell phone, saying it was Ouyang Lingyun looking for her.
After apologizing, Ouyang Feifei took the phone to listen, then said to Ling Ruonan, "My grandfather would like to speak with you for a moment."
At this time, Ouyang Feifei did not exhibit her usual haughty beauty; in front of Ling Ruonan, she was completely like a junior, much alike a school student who had done something wrong.
She felt aggrieved but she did not evade, and she also wanted to confront Ling Ruonan, a renowned individual.
The two had occasional contact in the past, but they did not have a deep relationship, it could be said to be merely official interactions.
But because of Luo Ziling, and that once arranged marriage, in Ouyang Feifei's heart, Ling Ruonan was a woman she had to confront, an elder whose presence exerted psychological pressure, making it impossible for her to behave as she normally would.
No matter how Ling Ruonan treated her, Ouyang Feifei had to respond and resolve the matter.
Ling Ruonan took Ouyang Feifei's phone, got up, and walked aside to take the call.
While Ling Ruonan was on the phone, Ouyang Feifei didn't say a word, not even glancing at Ouyang Huihui sitting beside her.
Ouyang Huihui felt even more afraid inside, but she didn't dare to ask Ouyang Feifei anything.
About ten minutes or so later, Ling Ruonan finished the call and walked back, handing the mobile phone back to Ouyang Feifei.
Seeing that Ling Ruonan's expression had softened slightly, Ouyang Feifei breathed a sigh of relief.
"Ask for his own opinion, if he is willing to let it go, then I will abide by his decision," Ling Ruonan looked directly into Ouyang Feifei's eyes, "If he doesn't want to let the Li Father and Son off so easily, whether he wants their lives or yours, I will help him achieve it."
Last time Luo Ziling had fought with those people at school, Ling Ruonan had Wuyue personally intervene. Today's matter was even more serious, and she definitely wouldn't let it slide. Ling Ruonan had never been so angry before, she would really kill those who threatened her son.
The words from Ling Ruonan and her aggressive gaze made Ouyang Feifei very uncomfortable, but she still responded with equal measure, "I will explain things clearly to him and provide ample compensation. If I can't obtain his forgiveness, I will personally deal with the Li Father and Son."
"That's good," said Ling Ruonan as she stood up, "I'm leaving now, but I will be closely monitoring this matter."
Ouyang Feifei and Ouyang Huihui also stood up.
Meeting Ling Ruonan formally for the first time today, she had failed miserably; this was what Ouyang Feifei felt at the moment.
"In the future, please keep away from him," Ling Ruonan took a step and then turned back, her tone serious and earnest as she said to Ouyang Feifei, "As for your marriage, I object to it too. I do not wish for you to be his future wife; you are not suitable for him."
These words made Ouyang Feifei's face change instantly.
But Ling Ruonan didn't care, bidding farewell before leaving the private room with Wuyue.
Ouyang Feifei didn't leave immediately, while Ouyang Huihui didn't dare to utter a word, standing timidly off to the side.
"He despises me; his mother despises me; am I really that bad?" Ouyang Feifei wore a strange smile as she looked at Ouyang Huihui, as if asking herself, "It seems I've really failed as a person."
"Sister, she's too bullying," Ouyang Huihui, indignant, spoke up for her sister, "What gives her the right to say that about us? What right does she have to threaten us? Why should she despise you? Humph, we don't give a damn about that jerk."
There was a cold smirk on Ouyang Feifei's lips, "I am even less reconciled."
"Sister, you..." Ouyang Huihui was somewhat stunned; she had never seen her sister so troubled before.
In the upper echelons of Capital City's society, Ouyang Feifei was like a queen.
Although she and Yang Qingyin were called the "Yanjing Beauty," since Yang Qingyin was still a student and seldom appeared in social situations, Ouyang Feifei, being a career woman who frequently dealt with people, had a more prominent reputation and attracted more attention.
Numerous dandies from wealthy families in the Capital sought after Ouyang Feifei, but none had ever caught her eye.
Now, when faced with Luo Ziling and his mother Ling Ruonan, Ouyang Feifei completely lost her composure and status, rejected by Luo Ziling in a broken engagement, subdued by Ling Ruonan's imposing attitude, and rejected once again.
It would be unbearable for anyone, let alone someone as proud as Ouyang Feifei.
Worried that her sister would lose her senses in anger, Ouyang Huihui was very concerned.
However, Ouyang Feifei had already left the private room, and Ouyang Huihui quickly followed.
