My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 724 Do As You Say

For a moment, Tang Jing was stunned. “Did you just say your mother?” Isn’t Ouyang Qi’s mother the widow of Ouyang Duo, the boss of Sunshine Corporation? Why is she moving into my condominium? Even if the Ouyang family isn’t doing as well as before, they are, by and large, still an influential family. How has Mrs. Ouyang ended up in such a sorry state?

Thinking that Tang Jing was unhappy, Ouyang Qi hastily replied, “I know it isn’t convenient to have my mother at your place. However, she refuses to stay at a hotel, so I have no choice but to put her up here for the time being. I’ll move her out once I’ve found suitable accommodation.”

“No, no. There’s no hurry. I don’t have a problem with that. I’m just a little embarrassed by the size of my house. What if she’s not used to it? Of course, if she doesn’t mind the size, she can stay as long as she likes,” Tang Jing remarked. “I’m curious, though. What happened? Why doesn’t she have a place to live in?”

The other end of the line fell silent for a few seconds, and when Ouyang Qi finally spoke up, his voice was tinged with sadness.

“My sister fired me and dragged my mother into the whole mess. She wants me to accompany Mom back to Pearl City and stop interfering with company affairs. Sorry… I know I’ve let you down. I’m not even allowed to chauffeur my sister around now.”

“What? She won’t even let you drive the car?” Tang Jing exclaimed.

Oh, my goodness. Ouyang Li is pure evil! Who knew she’d be even more ruthless than Ouyang Qing and pull such a stunt?

“Yes. My sister told me to get lost immediately. Her reason was that I had planted a listening device on her and leaked her secrets to the Nan family. I’m clueless about what happened, but she must’ve fabricated that excuse to get me out of the company.”

Needless to say, Tang Jing could tell how despondent Ouyang Qi was.

“It’s okay. Take a couple of days off and look after Mrs. Ouyang,” she gently comforted. “Now that your father isn’t around, it’s all the more reason for you to protect your mother and spend time with her.”

Upon hearing that, Ouyang Qi felt all warm and fuzzy again. My gosh. She really is the best woman I’ve ever met!

What’s the point in dredging it up?” Ouyang Qi replied. “I’m not mad that Li has taken over the company, but she has become even more ambitious and ruthless than Dad. Dad always took care of the family and only dealt with outsiders. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to enjoy so many years of being indolent and a womanizer. Li, however, is downright scary.
