Chapter 401
"Yes, ma’am!"
Within less than a minute, those people barged in and grabbed Ou Yuze, who was eating.
Seeing this, Mei Liping and Ou Muyuan stood up from their chairs in shock and anger, "Bai Tingfang, what are you doing? Who gave you the audacity to arrest him? Do you no longer wish to stay in this garden?"
A roar of fury, he showed no regard for his stepmother, as if he, Ou Muyuan, were the master of this garden.
But who was Bai Tingfang?
Not to mention they already had evidence in hand of their son attempting to kill hers, even on a normal day, the authority she wielded in their presence was insurmountable.
Gazing at them with a ghastly, bitter smile, she pronounced word by word, "Just wait and see who truly doesn’t want to stay in this garden!"
"You—"
"Muyuan, enough, there’s no point arguing with her!" At the crucial moment, it was Mei Liping who first regained her composure. Seeing that things were amiss, she quickly grabbed her husband with force.
This was indeed a dire situation, and the atmosphere made her feel strongly that it was not looking good. noveldrama
Bai Tingfang stared coldly at her, aware that the shrewdest person in the family was this woman named Mei Liping. Over the years, had it not been for her, their second branch would have likely fallen long ago.
Therefore, when she saw Mei Liping holding her husband back, she just stood there and sneered coldly: "Mei Liping, remember this, however your son treated my son, I will make sure he repays it a thousand-fold. Just you wait and see."
After speaking, she didn’t look at them anymore and left with the arrested young master of the Ou Family.
Left behind, Mei Liping and the others stood there, stunned, until Ou Yuze was dragged far away. Only then did she let out a piercing scream and in a fit of rage, swept all the dishes from the table onto the floor!
Catastrophe loomed over the second branch of the Ou Family!
After meeting with Ji Chengzhi, Ou Mucen had been in a coma, sleeping another seven or eight hours before he finally woke up. By then, it was already the morning of the next day, and he had been moved from the intensive care unit to a standard hospital room.
"Awake?"
Upon opening his eyes, as usual, he saw Ji Chengzhi first.
Seeing this, Ou Mucen nodded on the bed, "Hmm, what time is it?
Ji Chengzhi glanced at his watch, "Are you asking the current time, or how long has passed since the incident occurred? If it’s the latter, it’s been three days since your surgery until you fully regained consciousness."
Ou Mucen: "..."
Three days?
He had been in a coma for so long?
His lips felt dry, and he tried to sit up, but as soon as he moved, the pain in his abdomen made him lie back down again.
Seeing this, Ji Chengzhi adjusted his bed a little, making it at least a bit more comfortable for him to rest. Then he handed over some warm water, "Your father has already gone back. He left last night."
Last night?
Was that not after he had talked to him about that matter?
He took the cup of water and sipped a little from the edge of the cup...
Warm and somewhat comforting!
"And then?"
"I heard your nephew has been stripped of his inheritance rights, and he will no longer be able to inherit the wealth of the Ou Family for the rest of his life. Also, your brother’s shares in Dragon-Phoenix Jewelry, he relinquished 50% of them to you."
