Luo Ziling reacted quickly and released her. After that, he disappeared like the wind, vanishing from her sight.
Ouyang Huihui almost got herself humiliated in front of Luo Ziling. At that moment, Ouyang Huihui felt so infuriated that she could explode.
“Bastard! Ruffian! I’ll take you on!”
Ouyang Huihui almost cried. She had never been treated like this as she had the power of the Ouyang family backing her.
Right now, getting bullied by Luo Ziling shot her anger level so high that she could have killed someone.
However, before she could start going berserk again, Luo Ziling was no longer in sight.
“Bastard, you can hide but I will find you!” Ouyang Huihui muttered to herself. She got back into her car and tried to find her self-defense kit. She was ready to fight him.
Just then, her mobile phone rang. It was Ouyang Feifei calling, so she had no choice but to pick it up.
“Come back, Huihui. You are forbidden from causing Luo Ziling any trouble,” said Ouyang Feifei with the coldest tone, the kind that one could do nothing against, and only listen and obey without any resistance.
“Sister! I cannot forgive him! Not only did he humiliate you, he had just done the same thing to me!”
Ouyang Huihui almost cried then.
“He dared to run and hide! When I find him, I’ll beat him up!”
“What on earth did he do?” Ouyang Feifei hummed. Her heart sank a little.
“He… He called me a crazy lady. He said that no man would be interested in me,” Ouyang Huihui said, her voice lowered to almost a whisper.
He also accidentally… touched her but that was a secret she would take to her grave.
“Enough. Come back now,” said Ouyang Feifei before she ended the call.
Ouyang Huihui held a stone in her hand. She stood still for a good second, hesitating for a bit, before she finally cast the stone away angrily. She dusted her hands and drove her car around to return home.
Luo Ziling was far away then. When he saw the red sports car drive back to the mansion, he felt relieved.
Thinking back, calling off the engagement seemed to be the most rational thing to do.
The two sisters were the kind of people that one could never approach. Staying away from them was the most rational thing to do.
Delighted, the young man picked up his pace. He had even hummed a tune as he walked.
…
Ouyang Huihui went straight into her sister’s room as soon as she returned to the mansion.
Ouyang Feifei was leaning against a sofa next to the window of her room, reading a book. She appeared nonchalant, as if nothing had happened.
“Sister, why did you call me back?” Ouyang Huihui barked as she sat next to her. She pouted disgruntledly and said, “He dared to call off the engagement. If that’s not humiliating you, nothing is. I’ll skin him alive if I can’t kill him.”
“Did you call him a country bumpkin?” Ouyang Feifei gave a pseudo smile as she commented, completely ignoring what Ouyang Huihui was venting about.
“Was he not?” Ouyang Huihui snarled as she gritted her teeth.
“He used a Redmi phone and mourned for it as if that cheap phone was his treasure. He even demanded me to compensate him a few hundred dollars for his phone. He’s dressed like a country bumpkin and owns a cheap phone like a country bumpkin, so what’s wrong with addressing him as one?”
“That should be his first phone,” Ouyang Feifei commented coldly. “Mind you, he had probably never used a phone before.”
“Bah, now that’s a true indication of a country bumpkin.”
“He is not.” Ouyang Feifei cracked the faintest smile. “His mother is… Ling Ruonan!”
“Ling Ruonan? That can’t be right. Wasn’t she Yenching’s most beautiful woman?” Ouyang Huihui gasped in surprise.
“That’s not right… He… That bastard is the son of the Ling family, the son of Princess Ling Ruonan? How is it possible? Her son… Why does he look like a country bumpkin…”
“It all happened twenty years ago. The most beautiful woman in Yenching was engaged to the heir of the Yang family, Yang Yunfeng, and had an affair with a young man that came from outside of Yenching, Luo Xusheng, that shook the entire Yenching,” Ouyang Feifei sailed while smiling playfully.
“Is it true…?”
The flame of gossip in Ouyang Huihui’s heart was ignited. The hatred she bore toward Luo Ziling was immediately suppressed as she wanted to know more.
“Sister, what do you mean by affair? Tell me more! Luo Ziling must be the son of Luo Xusheng! That must be it! Hah!”
Ouyang Feifei shook her head. She had no intention of fully explaining what had happened to her younger sister. She only smiled faintly and said,
“Someone must have objected to this engagement. That is why he came to call it off,” she spoke softly.
“Huh?”
Ouyang Huihui was completely baffled. The flames of curiosity raged on. She held her elder sister’s hands and pleaded coquettishly, “Sister! Please tell me! You’re killing me here with secrecy!”
Ouyang Feifei ignored her plea, but continued with her thoughts.
“I’m not satisfied!”
“What do you mean?” Ouyang Huihui asked, distraught.
Ouyang Feifei smiled playfully again.
“If he had called off the engagement without us meeting, I would accept his decision and be done with it. But now that he had seen me, and still went through with that decision? Hah. To be rejected by a man directly like that… I’m not satisfied with that!”
“Sister… You…”
Ouyang Huihui’s blood started to boil again. The anger she felt for Luo Ziling had returned. However, she could not understand what her sister was trying to tell her. She lowered her voice, asking, “Sister, what are you going to do?”
“He’s handsome!” she replied.
Ouyang Huihui recalled the encounter with that man and could not disagree about his looks.
“That country bumpkin might be handsome but he’s just too… petty! I hate him! I hate him so much!”
“That’s right. He is handsome. He’s the son of the most beautiful woman in Yenching. His looks must have not strayed too far from his mother’s. The man with whom she bore an illegitimate child must hold a certain quality as well. Their child must share both their genes. It is only expected that he will be handsome too!”
Ouyang Feifei opened her palm as she spoke, revealing something that she had shown to Luo Ziling.
“This is a gift from him when we were young. I have someone inspect it a few years back and it actually cost a few million dollars.”
“Sister, what are you going to do?” Ouyang Huihui asked again as she had become more and more confused.
“Were you already infatuated before he came?”
Ouyang Feifei laughed.
“I want to get closer to him. I want him to be infatuated with me!”
Ouyang Huihui gasped in surprise.
“Sister? How could you do that? You are currently the most beautiful lady in all of Yenching. You can fill the world’s largest stadium with men that actually want to be with you. Why choose a country bumpkin?”
“I’ve told you. He’s not a country bumpkin. His family conditions are not too far from ours.”
There was a slight glint of confusion in Ouyang Feifei’s eyes.
“I cannot accept a man ignoring and rejecting me. I will make an effort to get closer to him and I will make him like me.”
“I understand now,” Ouyang Huihui got excited as she interrupted her sister before she could finish. “You want to make him fall in love with you and then you’ll kick him away! You’ll make sure that he will never raise his head around you! I like it! You have my support!”
