Chapter 380: Once

icted inside, hesitating whether to leave. 。"Hurry up and open it! I'm definitely going up, don't waste time!" Seeing He Yue didn't move, Cheng Kexin urged anxiously, her voice already trembling with...After so many years, the power of the Ou-Yang family has been basically controlled by Ou-Yang Chu, so he naturally had his own courtyard.

However, since Old Master Ouyang was still alive, the core courtyard of the entire Ouyang family remained where the old master resided. Ouyang Chu could only settle for second best.

However, this is already a very high standard of treatment, after all, he is still a junior in the OuYang family.

Xu Zui'ning got into the car and was immediately pulled into Ouyang Chuzhao's arms, where she was kneaded for a while. That long and domineering kiss left Xu Zui'ning gasping for breath before Ouyang Chuzhao finally reluctantly stopped.

Pu Yun Gu Xia pretended not to see the awkwardness throughout the whole thing.

"I've brought the person to you, so I guess there's nothing more for me to do, right Then I should get going."

Ouyang Chu's expression was gloomy. Puyu Gu Xia immediately replied with an "I understand" look and got in the car, leaving almost as if running away.

Ouyang Chu only then nodded in satisfaction and led Xu Zui Ning into his bedroom.

"This overseas investigation yielded a lot of unexpected news..."

Xu Zhuoning also frowned. The first thing Ou Yang Chu said was about business, which meant this matter was inevitable.

“The people I sent have been following Cheng An all along, and recently they discovered that he has been in contact with Song Xiuyi.”

Xu Zui'ning nodded. They had talked about this before, but she wasn't very convinced.

"So we followed the clues and found an organization...Actually, I've been investigating my mother's case for years."

"So you suspect these things are connected"

Xu Zui Ning widened her eyes, originally thinking it was just a series of unrelated events. Unexpectedly, there seemed to be some connection now.

If everything is connected, then things get complicated, and it's uncertain if being entangled like this can ultimately solve the problem.

"And according to the specific clues we have already obtained, too many people are involved in this matter, the Zhuo family, Wei Moze, Song Xiuyi... none of them can escape."

Xu Zui-ning let out a sigh.

"So what do we do next And the biggest question... why your mother..."

Xu Zui Ning was most curious about this matter from beginning to end.

"What kind of thoughts would make her want to kill you again"

Ouyang Chu's eyes darkened immediately, obviously bringing up this matter also made him feel a little uncomfortable inside.

Although he said he no longer treated that woman as his mother, the child still relied on her most when he was young. After all, she was the person he depended on the most in his childhood. That kind of love and dependence was something he could never erase from his heart.

To this day, to treat that woman as his enemy, his heart has never stopped enduring torment.

Xu Zui Ning slightly lowered her eyes, her expression holding a hint of something unreadable.

"If you don't want to say it, that's okay..."

Since our relationship has already reached this point, why bother hiding it any longer

But Xu Zui Ning was unable to finish the sentence, only shaking her head lightly as Ouyang Chu.

"I have never mentioned my family to you before, as you know, families like ours often have business marriages."

Xu Zui'ning nodded slightly, Ou Yang Chu looked out the window in some silence, not knowing what he was thinking.

"My mother seemed to have been forced into this marriage as well. She didn't like this place, but she not only had to marry here, but also raised children for a life she didn't love."

"What does it matter if she gives birth to a child She'll only see the child as another product of force, how could she possibly love this child"

Xu Zui'ning frowned.

"You mean… your mother gave birth to you out of necessity, and that's why she tried every means to kill you But you're innocent!"

The man let out a contemptuous laugh, the coldness in his voice unprecedented.

She didn't care at all, she was probably driven mad with hatred by then.

Xu Zui Ning fell silent. She didn't really understand her mother's psychological journey, but seeing Ouyang Chu's evasive attitude, she decided not to press further.

"Forget it, these things don't matter now. What matters is how we find Yvette next."

Ou Yang Chu nodded.

"The investigation has been given the go-ahead, and results should be forthcoming soon. With key figures like Cheng An and Song Xiu Yi already in hand, finding Eve shouldn't be difficult."

Xu Zui Ning only then let out a long sigh of relief.

"So, that means as soon as the investigation results come out...the truth will be revealed"

Ou Yang Chu fell silent for a moment. Right now, there were no clues about this matter at all, and he couldn't say what the truth was.

"All in all, I will have people around you to protect you for this period of time. You also need to be more careful yourself."

Xu Zui'ning nodded cautiously. Times were different now, her goals were far too ambitious, and having someone by her side for protection was a good idea.

"Then you should head back to school first. I'll find you as soon as I have a lead."

The two bid each other farewell, and then the butler of the Ou-yang family sent Xu Zui-ning back to school by car.

Xu Zui'ning did not delay her afternoon classes either. The two of them spoke for only two hours before and after, and when they returned to school, it was just in time for class.

As soon as Xu Zui-ning entered the classroom, she felt a strange atmosphere, but it was difficult to describe...

In a nutshell, everyone was unusually quiet today, and the moment I stepped into the classroom, all eyes were on me.

Being the center of attention wasn't new to her, she'd been there before. But being verbally abused and criticized That was a first.

“Drunken Contemplation…”

Zhou Shuangqing reacted first. By this time, Xu Zuiying had already walked over and sat beside her.

"You're amazing!"

Zhou Shuangqing's little face was flushed red, and after a long silence, she suddenly blurted out.

Xu Zui Ning stared blankly, she had only been away for an afternoon, so what else could have happened

"The Zhu family even held a press conference, saying you cured their grandmother's headache that had lasted for half a year in just three days! They even established their own Traditional Chinese Medicine Association because of you. You really have such a big face! The Zhu family only held a press conference because of you! This is really the first time."

Xu Zuiying was also a little surprised. She had originally thought that she had already discussed the reward with the old matriarch of the Zhuo family, and this matter would be resolved even if it was understood like this.

I didn't expect the Zhuo family to be so loyal and righteous, they even gave her free publicity and even brought along their newly established Traditional Chinese Medicine Association.

"And what's more, Master Chu, who has been treating the Zhuo family for a long time, also announced at the press conference that he is joining your TCM association!"er looked like! The woman who captivated all men and made Wang Cuifen jealous for her entire life, what did she look likeGu Ke Yù closed her eyes, she was dazed and lost: "Alright, since that's the ca...
