Chapter 510: Chapter 510: Any Progress on Ou Jiao’s Matter?
“Health matters shouldn’t be taken lightly,” Ou Jun finally couldn’t hold back and said to his mother.
Mrs. Ou smiled and looked at her son, saying, “Don’t worry, I know my body well.”
“By the way, second son, did you visit Huo Shiqian’s partner today? Nothing went wrong, right?” Mrs. Ou asked Ou Cong.
It was apparent how unreliable Mrs. Ou thought Ou Cong was.
“Mom, how could it?” Ou Cong responded with a smile.
Seeing his attitude, Mrs. Ou couldn’t help but shake her head and casually asked, “How’s that kid?”
“He’s okay, I guess, just a bit petty…” Ou Cong replied offhandedly, but was quickly interrupted by Ou Jun.
“Mom, don’t listen to him talk nonsense. Xia Chuyi is actually very nice,” Ou Jun said.
Hearing this, Mrs. Ou smiled and replied, “That’s good then.”
“Huo Shiqian has it tough too. His stepmother is really unreliable…”
Speaking about someone else’s family issues wasn’t very nice, so Mrs. Ou quickly changed the topic, “Eldest, have you heard anything about Jiaojiao lately?”
As soon as Mrs. Ou finished her question, everyone’s expression changed.
“Mom…” Ou Jun said, his eyes deep.
Ou Cong looked down silently, his expression unclear.
Ou Lianlian glanced at Mrs. Ou and then lowered her head too, a sarcastic smile forming on her lips.
It was really like a mother, worrying about her daughter’s affairs from time to time.
Seeing Ou Jun’s demeanor, Mrs. Ou knew there probably wasn’t any news, and immediately said, “Don’t worry too much, I was just asking casually.”
“I’ve already gotten used to being disappointed over these many years.”
“Mom,” Ou Jun called out helplessly and guiltily.
A flash of disappointment crossed Mrs. Ou’s eyes, and just as she was about to continue speaking, suddenly, a robust middle-aged male voice came from outside.
“What are you discussing that’s so lively?”
Hearing the voice, everyone knew it was Father Ou ZhenTing, the head of the Ou family, who had returned.
“Dad!” the three younger members called out together.
“Zhen Ting, you’re back?” Mrs. Ou greeted her husband.
“Nothing much, we were just chatting casually,” Mrs. Ou said with a smile.
Ou ZhenTing stepped forward to support his wife, his gaze meeting his eldest son’s.
“Ann, children have their own concerns. Let’s not interfere too much,” he said, then turned to Ou Lianlian, “Take your mother out.”
Seeing this, Mrs. Ou knew that Ou ZhenTing had something to discuss with his eldest son.
“I’ll head out then,” Mrs. Ou said, and followed Ou Lianlian out the door.
In the study, after everyone had left, Father Ou sent Ou Cong away too, then spoke to Ou Jun, “How confident are you about this person this time?”
Ou Jun’s expression shifted slightly. “Dad, I won’t lie, I think there’s a very high chance it’s really Jiaojiao.”
Ou ZhenTing hadn’t expected his son to be so sure and felt a bit excited, “Can you be completely certain?”
Ou Jun shook his head, “Indeed, I can’t be completely sure, but…”
“From the information we have at the moment, the likelihood is very high.”
Ou Jun was a man who spoke with reason, so when he said this, Ou ZhenTing knew that this time, the chances were really significant.
“Good, good! If it really is Jiaojiao…” Ou ZhenTing’s words trailed off, he sighed, “If she can make it to your and Cai Qin’s wedding, it would indeed be a blessing for our family.”
