Chapter 483: Encounter with Ouyang (3)
"Manager Wang, arrange a private room for me," Ouyang Yi said lightly, then turned to Grandma Shangguan and asked, "What kind of tea does the old lady like? I’ll have some brought up."
"Then let’s have a pot of Longjing tea," Grandma Shangguan said, and followed the hotel’s waiter to the private room.
Jiang Xue supported Grandma Shangguan, looking back at Ouyang Yi who was instructing the hotel manager, her eyes flickering.
"President Ouyang?" If she remembered correctly, there was only one company owner with the surname Ouyang in Xu City, and that was the Ou Group.
It seems this man has a significant background. But why was he approaching her? Jiang Xue was somewhat confused, but now was not the time to investigate. She would have to wait patiently; she believed that sooner or later, the other party would reveal their intentions.
After finishing his instructions to the manager, Ouyang Yi then entered the private room. Soon, the tea was served, although it had not yet been brewed.
Thus, Ouyang Yi personally brewed the tea and handed it to Grandma Shangguan and Jiang Xue.
"The taste is nice, and the skill is good too," Grandma Shangguan couldn’t help but praise after taking a sip. Ouyang Yi smiled at her words and said, "If the old lady likes it, I’ll brew it for you more often in the future."
Grandma Shangguan smiled but did not reply. Having lived most of her life, she could see clearly Ouyang Yi’s intentions towards Jiang Xue.
However, Ouyang Yi seemed good, but Jiang Xue was already married, and she wouldn’t interfere in her affairs. It was evident that Jiang Xue did not like the man in front of her.
It was just because she was present that Jiang Xue tolerated him.
Jiang Xue was a bit thirsty too. After drinking a cup of tea, she stopped talking. Today, she was out with Grandma Shangguan, and she didn’t want to spoil her mood.
As for Ouyang Yi’s matters, there would be time later to handle them.
After resting for a while, it was time for lunch. The hotel staff brought up the dishes, which looked quite appealing.
Jiang Xue and Grandma Shangguan took a bite, and the taste was acceptable. Coupled with Ouyang Yi’s pleasant conversation, the meal went rather smoothly.
After the meal, Grandma Shangguan felt a bit tired, and without staying longer at the hotel, they went directly back to Jiang Xue’s residence.
Ouyang Yi noticed Jiang Xue didn’t have a car, so he personally drove them back. Although Jiang Xue didn’t like Ouyang Yi and knew he didn’t have good intentions, she still thanked him for driving them back and treating them to a meal.
Ouyang Yi also knew when to stop. Seeing Jiang Xue not getting angry with him today, not threatening him or shaking her fist at him, he felt he was making progress in pursuing Jiang Xue and didn’t dare to push too hard.
So, he bid farewell to Jiang Xue and Grandma Shangguan, then drove away.
Jiang Xue helped Grandma Shangguan home and didn’t mention Ouyang Yi’s matters again. Some things were best kept to herself; there was no need to trouble the elders.
Driving, Ouyang Yi hummed a tune, feeling quite good. He believed that as long as he kept working hard, he could soon achieve his goal.
But at this moment, he had no idea that everything he did had been reported to a certain man.
In the mountain camp, Mu Qiancheng received the news, and his face turned grim. This Ming Lan was really courting death, still not giving up and even teaming up with Lu Ling.
And Lu Ling, daring to find another man to tempt Jiang Xue, trying to break them apart. It seems he had been too lenient before, letting her have such thoughts.
