Father Ou holds an important position. Even in the high officials’ gathering in the Imperial City, he is a prominent figure. Regardless of Lin Yixun’s past, just the fact that her father abused his power and was imprisoned is enough for him to disapprove. He will never allow his son, Ouyang Jie, to marry the daughter of a disgraced official.
"It doesn’t matter whose daughter she is. I’m not marrying her father." Ouyang Hao put down his utensils and stood up. "It looks like we can’t finish this New Year’s Eve dinner."
With that, Ouyang Hao rushed out.
Mrs. Ouyang wanted to call after him, but was sternly scolded by Father Ou, "Let him go, don’t stop him! Since childhood, he has always learned the wrong things. I used to turn a blind eye, but this time, I absolutely cannot let him mess around! Our Ouyang family’s door is not open to just any random woman!"
After scolding, Father Ou still felt unsatisfied and turned to look at Mrs. Ouyang, his face growing uglier, "Look, look, this is the good son you raised! Look at how spoiled he has become!"
Mrs. Ouyang felt extremely wronged by the scolding. What’s wrong with her pampering her son? Ouyang Hao came from her body, if she doesn’t pamper him, who will?
However, this time her youngest son did go a bit overboard. Why did he foolishly fall for a divorced and tainted woman?
Ouyang Che had been silently sitting at the dining table all along, with no emotion on his face, eating slowly but without any appetite.
He put down his utensils, stood up from his seat, and said to Father Ou and Mrs. Ouyang, "Dad, Mom, I’m going out for a while."
"Where are you going this late at night?"
"I have an appointment with a friend, something came up."
For a moment, the big dining room was left with only Father Ou and Mrs. Ouyang. The previously somewhat lively dining table instantly became deserted. Mrs. Ouyang suddenly felt tasteless, glaring at Father Ou fiercely, "Look at what you’ve done. A nice New Year’s Eve dinner, and you’ve ruined it ."
Ouyang Hao came from the basement to the garage, and as soon as he started the car, he saw Ouyang Che walking towards him. He frowned but eventually rolled down the car window.
Ouyang Che looked at him deeply, his thin lips parted slightly, "Hao, this time you went a bit too far."
"Brother, I have indeed done many absurd things in my life, but in this matter, I know I’m not wrong." Loving someone, what’s wrong with that?
"That woman is not worth it."
"Whether she is or not, I know very well." In his view, Lin Yixun is worth it.
"You hurt Mom and Dad."
"No, it is Mom and Dad who hurt me. Whom I love and whom I marry are my choices. Even if they are my parents, they have no right to interfere. Brother, I hope you won’t get involved in this matter."
"I only care about whether my family gets hurt. As for other things, they are not within my concern."
Ouyang Hao suddenly had a bad feeling, his face turned a few shades colder, "Brother, if you try to stop me, don’t blame me for turning against you."
"Are you threatening me?"
"I’m not threatening you, I’m just asking you earnestly. You are the brother I respect the most, I don’t want our relationship to be affected by this."
The man looked at him deeply. His eyes were so profound that one couldn’t read the emotions within. Finally, he spoke in a deep voice, "Hao, you are still too young."
