C202 Empress Dowager of the Ouyang Family

"You woman …" When Ouyang Gu saw Ning Caier, she actually wanted to rush over and argue with her, but when he just got up from his seat, she was pushed down by Ouyang Jue. He was so strong that she almost crushed Ouyang Gu's shoulders.

"If you dare to do anything rash, once I get off the plane, I'll immediately announce to the media that Xu Mengyun and I are canceling our engagement."

Ouyang Jue took out the trump card that Ouyang Gu was most afraid of, and as expected, when he heard that was going to cancel the engagement, he immediately quietened down, but his eyes were still wide open, as though he wanted to fiercely spurt out the foul air on Ning Caier's face. It was all her fault that his own son turned out like this, if not for her, how could the father and son turn against each other.

Ning Caier was frozen in place. She did not know how Ouyang Gu got on the plane, but she felt that the plane was very strange, they were already quarreling to this extent, but no one on the plane stepped forward to stop them, no one even turned to look.

They seemed to be fixed within their own behavior patterns, not caring about the surrounding world at all. This kind of abnormal situation made Ning Caier think that they had been infected by some sort of virus.

"Cai'er, let's go back." Ouyang Jue walked quickly back to the first-class cabin. He grabbed onto Ning Caier's hand with all his strength and brought her back to the first-class cabin, while at the same time, he tightly tied the curtain to prevent the economic light from penetrating. He did not want Ning Caier to worry about him, but his ashen complexion showed everything.

"Ouyang …" Ning Caier didn't know what she should say to him. If she said goodbye to Ouyang Jue before this trip, she would have let him return to her own life.

But now that she could not bear to leave him, it had nothing to do with the reality of their relationship, but with her attachment to his gentleness, his consideration, and even the warmth of his body. So she leaned her head against his shoulder, her hands gripping his fingers tightly. She wanted to tell him that she didn't want to leave him.

Ning Caier's reaction surprised him a little. He knew that she had never had confidence in their relationship, so the moment she encountered pressure from the outside world, she would retreat. But this time, she seemed to be prepared to face it together with him.

"It's okay, Cai'er. I will take care of this matter. Just trust me, and don't leave me."

Ouyang Jue was very happy that Ning Caier had made such a change. He used his own palm to cover Ning Caier's ears, preventing her from hearing the chaotic noises from the outside. This time, no matter what price he had to pay, he had to give Ning Caier a name.

"I believe you." Ning Caier could feel Ouyang Jue's heavy tone, but she still nodded her head and gently closed her eyes. She relaxed in Ouyang Jue's embrace, disregarding everything in the world.

The plane landed at the airport on time. The flight attendant came over and opened the cabin door to invite the guests from first-class cabin to go down first, but Ouyang Jue waved his hand. He wanted everyone to see him together with Ning Caier, and tell his father that his intentions would not change.

The flight attendant had no choice but to invite Ouyang Gu out. Although the crew were all from the Ouyang Family, they couldn't occupy the runway here for too long, so they had to get a result before the next plane landed.

"You can all go down first, I'll talk to him myself." However, their loud footsteps still woke Ning Caier up. She saw that these people were rushing forward as if they were fleeing and she was a little puzzled, and couldn't help but turn her head to glance at Ouyang Jue. Ouyang Jue looked at them.

"It's fine, they're all from the Ouyang Family." Ouyang Jue caressed Ning Caier's hair. He knew that the one behind this was a big boss, but Ouyang Gu did not say anything when she walked over. He only gave Ouyang Jue a quick look, reminding him not to forget anyone else before doing this.

"Ouyang Jue, do you still remember your mother?"

Ouyang Gu's words were like a bomb to Ouyang Jue. He had never been afraid of his own father, but he was a little afraid of his own mother.

"It's good that you remember. If you don't want to see your mother hospitalized, it's best for you to think clearly about what kind of woman you should marry."

Of course, he knew how much Ouyang Jue cared about his mother. If he could pull her to his side, he could guarantee that he would obediently marry Xu Mengyun. It was just that this process of roping her in was a bit troublesome.

"Ouyang …" Ning Caier felt that Ouyang Jue's fingers had instantly become ice-cold. She did not know who Ouyang Jue's mother was, and had only vaguely heard that he was a descendant of a great clan. However, in the entire corporation, no one had ever seen this lady before.

"It's okay, my mother will definitely like you."

Ouyang Jue forced out a smile at Ning Caier. He didn't even mind riding in the same car as her, he wasn't afraid of the reporters tracking him down, but Ning Caier still felt that there was a barrier between them, because from the moment Ouyang Gu mentioned about this matter, Ouyang Jue's body had already become stiff, and even his most basic reaction speed had slowed down.

Ouyang Jue had originally wanted to tell his mother about it after he had settled things with Ning Caier, but before he had even finished settling the external matters, Ouyang Gu had actually brought out his mother to suppress him.

Although he could look down on his mother in the business world, he was basically obedient to her because she very rarely made any requests towards him. Therefore, he could not bear to say the word no, because Ouyang Jue knew that this kind of critical juncture was where he could use his trump card.

"Can you tell me something about Madame Ouyang? Why have I never seen her in Ouyang Family before?"

After returning home, Ning Caier couldn't help but ask. She had never heard Ouyang Jue talk about his mother before, she had always thought that his mother had already passed on. But now, looking at Ouyang Jue's expression, it seemed to be even more complicated than she had imagined.

"I haven't seen her in a long time. I just know that she's still alive."

When Ouyang Jue mentioned his mother, it was as if he had lost all of his strength. He powerlessly laid down on the sofa in the living room, and thought of those scenes from when he was young, which he was extremely afraid of.

He knew from the beginning that his mother's health was not good. She had to be treated at the hospital for most of the year, and the rest of the time, she had to stay in her room to recuperate. He had received dozens of medical notifications, and every time, he felt that his mother was about to leave him.

However, such a severely ill mother did not attract Ouyang Gu's good will. He had always treated her mother as nothing, and spent all day drinking and drinking with other women.

Because of this, Ouyang Jue hated his father a lot. He felt that the reason his mother's condition continuously worsened was because Ouyang Gu did not care about his mother at all. The father and son duo almost broke off their relationship because of this matter.

Later, in order to calm the conflict between him and his mother, his mother suggested to the Ouyang Family's private island when they became adults to recuperate. Naturally, Ouyang Gu would not reject such suggestion, he had even personally sent Ouyang Jue's mother to the island, and from then on, Ouyang Jue had never seen his mother again.

However, he knew that his mother was especially concerned about his marriage. Furthermore, he couldn't contradict his mother like she was Ouyang Gu; he was afraid that she would really get sick from being too agitated. If that really happened, he wouldn't be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life.

"I see. I'll do my best to make your mother like me."

Ning Caier never thought that the matters of the Ouyang Family would actually be so complicated. She could understand Ouyang Jue's worry, it was as if the image of a sickly old man had already appeared in her mind, and she was willing to bear all the grievances of an old man like him.

Furthermore, she believed that such a mother who doted on her son would definitely respect her son's decision. Therefore, she wasn't too worried about this matter, she only lightly leaned on Ouyang Jue's shoulder, hoping to give him some strength.

"Thank you, Cai'er."

Ouyang Jue lightly patted the back of Ning Caier's hand, but he did not put on a relaxed tone, as he understood his mother well, and that kind of woman who came from a large clan the most paid attention to was the reputation of the clan and the perfect match. This was also the reason why she had always been feeling wronged and not getting a divorce from Ouyang Gu, it was because of the word "reputation".

No matter what he did, he would not be able to lift his spirits. Although Tian Ao's business was still stable, it had not grown by much, and everyone was worried that if an enemy invaded at this time, Ouyang Jue might still have the ability to fight back.

As long as Ouyang Jue was able to restrain himself, he would not need to beg the woman on the island to help him. After all, the only condition for his legal wife to come back was that he was the one and only wife, and this matter could take his life.

Furthermore, as long as his marriage with the Xu's was successful, Xu Mengyun's iron fist in the market would be more than enough to make everyone submit to him. No matter how he thought of it, the benefits were greater than the drawbacks.

"CEO, the design for this season has been completed. Teacher Xiao wants me to ask when you are going to hold the quarterly meeting?"

Ning Caier had already returned to her job in Sky Ox City. She wanted to use this method to express her support for Ouyang Jue, but she still maintained a superior and subordinate relationship with him in the company, and didn't want to seem anything special to him.

However, this kind of deliberate estrangement allowed Xiao Ningyuan to see through their relationship, so he gave Ning Caier a lot of things without batting an eyelid, allowing her to have more of a reason to go to the CEO's office.

If it was a normal day, Ouyang Jue would have praised her while she was dressed like this. But today, he seemed to have been in a daze, looking at the empty table without saying a word, as if he had already swam all the way to that private island.
