Chapter 723 Swift Moves

Ouyang Qi was dumbfounded by Ouyang Li’s announcement. Am I seriously fired even though I had just started

work?

The fact that a rich boy like him would willingly swallow his pride and work as a driver was hard enough, so it was

unthinkable to him that he was even deprived of that job.

“Are you still unable to tolerate your brother’s presence even though he’s just a mere driver now? Li, are you

cutting ties with your family?” Feng Jialing got into a coughing fit due to her agitation.

“It’s not that I can’t tolerate him, but he had betrayed me! He placed a tapping device in my bag to intercept all of

my secrets and leak them to my opponents! Am I supposed to let him stay until he leads me to my death?” cried

Ouyang Li.

“I’ve never placed any tapping device anywhere! You’re making wild accusations just to fire me because you want

to chase me away!” Ouyang Qi was also riled up.

He had exercised much forbearance and felt like he was being backed into a corner.

“Who else would’ve done it if not you? Ning Ran would have been reduced to ashes by now if it weren’t for you

saving her by tipping Nan Chen off! I know you like Ning Ran and have a hard time getting her out of your mind, but

she’s Nan Chen’s woman! How dare you betray me to save her? You are the one who started this dogfight, so don’t

blame me for retaliating in kind. You are to leave right now! Get out of this clubhouse, withdraw from the company,

and never show yourself in front of me ever again.”

As Ouyang Li spoke, she turned to face Feng Jialing. “Don’t you feel pity for your son? You can leave with him. The

clubhouse will be opened soon, so you can’t stay any longer. You should be able to find yourself a place to stay

given the numerous properties you own in Pearl City. I’ll also bank in a monthly allowance for you every month. Just

leave.”

“Are you chasing me out?” Feng Jialing asked in a trembling voice.

“This isn’t an eviction, but I am urging you to leave. You don’t like me anyway and only have eyes for your son and

youngest daughter. I don’t suppose you can keep your daughter company while she’s in jail, so you’ll leave with

your son. Your presence here is making both of us uncomfortable, so you have to go. I won’t hold Ouyang Qi

accountable for having betrayed me as long as he stays out of my sight. From today onward, the three of us shall

cut ties with each other. This is farewell,” said Ouyang Li.

Feng Jialing was rendered speechless as her face paled and her lips quivered.

Never had she imagined her eldest daughter to be cruel enough to cut ties with her.

The reason Ouyang Li chose to do that wasn’t only because their presence grated on her nerves. She also wished

for them to stay away from her lest they affected her status in Sunshine Corporation.

After all, a lot of the company’s senior employees still viewed Feng Jialing as their unofficial leader, while Ouyang Qi

was still the heir.

Although Ouyang Duo was no more, there were still a group of employees loyal to him, which happened to include

quite a number of the higher-ups.

That was one of Ouyang Li’s hidden concerns, so she was determined to minimize Feng Jialing and Ouyang Qi’s

effect on her reign over the company.

She was initially planning to chase Ouyang Qi out but was worried that cracking down too hard on him might trigger

a retaliation. Moreover, she didn’t wish to be regarded as overly ruthless.

Yet, time was running out. She was certain that Nan Chen was tipped off due to Ouyang Qi’s affection toward Ning

Ran. She wouldn’t tolerate the incident repeating itself.

Besides, she would be able to give Ding Fei a satisfactory reply if she fired Ouyang Qi.

She should be satisfied now that I’ve chased my own brother away.

Thus, it was just a matter of time before she made that move.

When presented with what she perceived to be a golden opportunity, she acted swiftly.

“How do you think the senior employees would perceive you after catching wind of you chasing both me and Mom

away, Li? Won’t they feel bitter?” Ouyang Qi questioned sternly.

“That’s why you will make a public statement about you leaving of your own accord. Mom misses life in Pearl City,

and you have to watch over her because of her declining health, so you quit your job at the company. Your absence

will not be missed, for we have many other professional drivers. All you need to do is take care of Mom in Pearl City.

You are not to be involved in company matters either. None of that has anything to do with you. Not anymore,”

Ouyang Li stated matter-of-factly.

While Ouyang Qi seemed to object to that, Feng Jialing waved her arm. “It’s fine. We’ll do as she says. Just let it be.”

Grief-stricken, she stood up feebly after that and nearly toppled over.

Ouyang Qi reached out to support her. The two of them then left slowly.

“Give me the car keys. That’s my car,” Ouyang Li called out from behind them.

“I’ve sold my car, so I don’t have one now. Can’t you lend me yours so I can send Mom back to Pearl City?”

“No. I’ll need a ride at any moment.” Ouyang Li declined his request.

Ouyang Qi could only throw the keys back to her in resignation.

“It’s okay. We don’t need to drive. We’ll just take the railway.”

Feng Jialing’s voice was hoarse and rife with sorrow.

Upon stepping out of the clubhouse, Ouyang Qi hailed a taxi and helped his mother into it.

“Mom, you’re weak now, so we’ll settle down somewhere for the time being. We’ll return to Pearl City after you get

better.”

“But we have nowhere else to go now. Ouyang Li has gotten rid of the house in Flower City, and I don’t want to stay

in a hotel.”

“It’s okay. I have a place where you can stay at. It’s slightly run-down, but you’ll have to make do.”

It was ten o’clock at night, and Tang Jing was doing an online search at a hotel in Livingsfill. She wanted to know at

what stage the incident pertained to Ning Ran was at.

Nan Chen and the rest didn’t fill the production team in on the details of the incident, so various versions of the

incident were circulated around.

Some claimed that Nan Chen was merely putting up an act by escorting Ning Ran out while pretending that she was

in danger.

Others surmised that Ning Ran was indeed in danger. Someone was indeed after her, but Nan Chen’s timely rescue

spared her the consequences.

Due to Tang Jing’s absence that day, she wasn’t sure what had transpired, but she figured that Ning Ran was indeed

in danger.

She also had an inkling as to who might be behind the incident and speculated that Ouyang Li was the mastermind.

However, Ouyang Li would usually inquire about the production team’s situation before making any moves, so she

found it odd that no communication was received from Ouyang Li at all.

All Ouyang Li had her do during that period was disclose the exact location of the production team and nothing

else.

Could Ouyang Li have bribed someone else on the production team to spy on Ning Ran? Does that mean she no

longer trusts me?

Tang Jing couldn’t figure anything out even after racking her brain.

Without warning, the phone rang with a call from Ouyang Qi.

He sounded tipsy, slurring as he spoke. “What are you up to? Were you asleep?”

Tang Jing replied softly, “Not yet. I’ve just finished reading my script. Are you not going to bed yet?”

“Nope. Listen. I brought my mother to stay at your place without your permission. We’ll only be staying there

temporarily, and I’m informing you of it now. I promise to settle her somewhere else before you return.”
