While Ning Ran was in the meeting, Ouyang Qing was at the spa together with Bai Hua.
“Aunt, your figure is so good that I feel rude addressing you as Aunt. It’s so obvious you look more like my sister,”
Ouyang Qing complimented in a sycophantic manner.
Despite her trying to ingratiate herself with Bai Hua, Ouyang Qing’s words were not far from the truth. Bai Hua did
have an excellent figure.
Even at her age, her skin was still soft and taught. Moreover, there wasn’t even a bit of fat on her hips and thighs.
Time was usually unkind to women. But, to Bai Hua, it was a carving knife used to chisel her features into
something more exquisite.
“Look at how you are flattering me again. I’m no longer young and can’t compare to the beauty youth bestowed
upon you. I feel envious whenever I look at you. It’s so great to be young,” Bai Hua sighed.
“Aunt, you’re still young so you don’t have to be envious. It’s true!”
“Despite looking younger than people my age, it’s still a fact that I’m no longer young.”
“I think that you will still look the same in ten years. If you go out with Chen, others will have mistaken you as
siblings.”
Ouyang Qing had said the same before but Bai Hua loved to hear it. Hence, she didn’t mind it being repeated at all.
“Don’t talk about him. He hasn’t come to see me in a while and didn’t even bother to give me a call,” Bai Hua
sighed.
At that moment, Ouyang Qing realized the opportunity had arrived to talk about Ning Ran and that she had to seize
it.
“Chen is probably busy resolving that woman’s problems.”
“Which woman? What problems does she have?” Bai Hua probed.
“The lady called Ding Mi. She’s just a small-time actress.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“What’s wrong with her?” Bai Hua asked.
“Forget it. I don’t like to talk about her as I’m not interested in her messy life,” Ouyang Qing said on purpose.
“Come on. Tell me what’s going on?”
“Do you really want to know?”
“Of course, I want to know since it involves Chen.”
“Let me find the video as it’s all over the internet.”
Ouyang Qing took out her phone and search for the video where Ning Ziqiang attempted to commit suicide.
“What’s going on?”
“This old man is Ding Mi’s father. Now that Ding Mi is rich, she has abandoned him. Therefore, he tried to commit
suicide out of despair. She was also at the scene but she didn’t care. In fact, she even challenged him to do so by
egging him on,” Ouyang Qing explained.
“My God. How could such a vicious woman exist in this world?” Bai Hua exclaimed.
“That’s right. It’s really shocking. If Chen marries her in the future, I’m afraid she will treat you the same way,”
Ouyang Qing added fuel to fire.
“A woman like that doesn’t deserve my son! I will definitely not approve of their relationship. It looks like I must put
a stop to this.” Bai Hua became all worked up.
“I share your sentiments. But, Chen is his own man and doesn’t necessarily listen to what others say.”
“Even if he has his own stand, he is still my son. If I forbid him from marrying her, he will have to listen to me!”
“I don’t think it’s his fault. The woman must have bewitched Chen with unscrupulous means. Therefore, I feel it’s
not a good idea to speak with Chen directly. He will feel repulsed by it. I’m sure you’re aware of how stubborn he is.
Once he has decided on something, no one will be able to change his mind.”
Ouyang Qing had such a good grasp of Nan Chen’s character that Bai Hua couldn’t help but agree with her.
“What do you propose then?”
“We must not alert Chen as it will affect your relationship with him. Therefore, we must make the woman give up on
her own accord and stay away from Chen. That is the most effective solution,” Ouyang Qing proposed.
Bai Hua was convinced.
As Nan Chen’s mother, it went without saying that she understood her son well.
She was aware that if she were to confront Nan Chen directly about it, it would definitely not end well.
“But how do we make her give up on her own? Isn’t it a difficult task? Chen is handsome and everyone knows how
influential the Nan family is. Therefore, there are tons of girls dying to marry him. Now that she feels she is in a
good position, why would she give up easily?”
Bai Hua’s words struck a nerve with Ouyang Qing as she too was one of the girls dying to marry Nan Chen.
“That’s why we have to think of a plan. I’m sure there’s no way you can accept a daughter-in-law like that, am I
right?” Ouyang Qing asked.
Bai Hua’s mood turned foul. “Of course, I’d rather Chen stay single than let him marry that despicable woman. It’s
just that I can’t think of any good solutions. Do you have any plan in mind?”
Ouyang Qing shook her head, “This is between Chen and the Nan family. It’s not appropriate for me to interfere.”
“No, I already consider you as part of our family. I understand how you feel about Chen. I would be happy to have
you as my daughter-in-law. Therefore, I will support you in getting together with Chen.” Bai Hua made her stand
clear.
Ouyang Qing pretended to be embarrassed. “Aunt, don’t say such things. I’m not deserving of Chen.”
“Of course you’re a good match for him. If you marry him, it would be a real match made in heaven. Our family
backgrounds make both of you extremely compatible.” Bai Hua encouraged Ouyang Qing.
She knew that Ouyang Qing had to be confident enough to know that she stood a chance to win Nan Chen’s heart.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOnly then would their alliance have a strong foundation.
“Thank you for believing in me. It’s a pity that it’s one sided at the moment. I’m afraid Chen doesn’t see it that
way,” Ouyang Qing sighed.
“Chen isn’t stupid. One of these days, he will realize how good you are for him. Besides, you still have me. For now,
we will have to focus on driving that woman away. The ideal situation would be how the Nan family treated me,
banished me from Flower City...”
As Bai Hua got carried away with her words, she accidentally expose her embarrassing history. It caused the
atmosphere to turn awkward.
“I don’t know much about the misunderstanding the Nan family had on you then, but I do know that their treatment
towards you was unfair. That woman can’t even compare to you. In fact, she doesn’t even deserve to grovel at
your feet.” Ouyang Qing quickly salvaged the situation.
Ouyang Qing’s skills in flattery served to endear her further to Bai Hua.
“It’s just that how do we get her to leave?” Bai Hua asked.
“We can’t do it openly or else we may end up infuriating Chen. Therefore, this must be done covertly. Firstly, we
must cause Chen to resent her. The reason she is acting with such impunity is that she knows Chen will back her up.
If we can get Chen to ignore her, she will lose his support and be no different from an ordinary actress. By then, it
would be easy to get rid of her.”
Bai Hua nodded repeatedly as Ouyang Qing laid out her plan carefully.
“How should we go about it then?”
“We will start with something small. The reason she is mired in negative publicity is due to her father. Therefore, we
must use him carefully to cause Chen to be disappointed in her. Then, our goal will almost be achieved .”
“In that case, you should put your plan in motion now. I will definitely provide any support you need.”
“We can do this... and this...”
