Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife-Chapter 481: I Said You Would Have to Kneel and Beg My Wife (2)
Kang Yueting said, "I’m in the hospital."
Zhu Jiayin was clever and immediately realized something, exclaiming, "Are you going behind your mom’s back to meet that Dr. Ou again? Didn’t he send you away last time? Why are you still following him? Aren’t you afraid of losing face if your mom finds out?"
That’s not it at all! Kang Yueting thought to herself. She had just learned a huge secret but, being cautious, she couldn’t tell Zhu Jiayin first to avoid her cousins competing with her for her fiancé.
Especially since Zhu Jiayin had mentioned in a message that big cousin Zhao Mengjin had rushed to the hospital because of their grandfather’s illness.
Kang Yueting silently cheered herself on and finally caught up with her mother, who was walking ahead. She called out, "Mom—"
Xiao Shulan was startled by the voice behind her and, turning around, her face clearly showed surprise. She hadn’t informed her daughter. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
"How come you’re here?" After looking her daughter over, Xiao Shulan remembered and asked, "Did Jiayin or someone tell you something? Are you here to see your grandfather?"
Kang Yueting chose her words carefully, "I’ve been at the hospital, in the hospital the whole time, and saw Auntie at the emergency because she was ill."
In reality, she had been following Ou Yanan and then saw Ou Chunhua, which led her to Xiao Shuju’s ward.
"You knew your Auntie was sick?" Xiao Shulan was even more surprised, wondering when her daughter had started caring so much about Xiao Shuju.
Seeing that the situation had reached this point, Kang Yueting had to tell the truth, "Mom, actually, it’s like this, I think I saw that Big Brother Ou you wanted to introduce me to."
Xiao Shulan suddenly remembered the important matter at hand. Despite the fierce dispute over the family estate, her daughter’s marital prospects were equally important. If they could form a marital alliance with the Ou family, it would be like adding insurance for her future position as the chairperson of Changda.
"You’re saying you saw the young master of the Ou family?" Xiao Shulan began to pull her daughter to a corner to question her thoroughly, "Where did you see him? Tell me about it."
Considering how Ou Chunhua had always kept her son’s information tightly secret—it would be impossible for others to glean any insights. Xiao Shulan had tried every possible way to obtain such information to no avail, so how could her daughter know? Could her daughter have a destined connection with that young master?
The more Xiao Shulan thought about it, the more excited she became.
Now that Kang Yueting knew Ou Yanan was not a poor lad, she spoke to her mother with much more confidence, and thus she began to relay what she had seen. Of course, she left out the part where Ou Chunhua was slapped by Ou Yanan and kneeled on the ground. She only mentioned that Ou Chunhua encountered her son, who was a doctor, in the hospital and talked to him.
After listening, Xiao Shulan was initially uncertain and pressed for confirmation, "You’re saying that person is someone I’ve seen before?"
"Yes, it’s the one who came to our house last time, accompanying Professor Tang, the student beside him."
The handsome young man who had been with Tang Sili, Xiao Shulan couldn’t possibly have forgotten him. Her impression was deep; therefore, she knew that Ou Yanan was said to come from a humble background similar to Tang Sili. Was that not the case?
He was actually the young master of the Ou family!
Was it true or not?
Xiao Shulan decided that before confronting Ou Chunhua with this information, it might be best to verify it with someone first. After all, she should not rely solely on the word of her young daughter. As a mother, she now fully understood from her daughter’s confession that her daughter had already fallen for the young man named Ou.
She just feared her daughter might lie to her because of her affection for the young man.
