Chapter 450: Chapter 450: Creating Discord (1)

"Miss, a call for you," the bodyguard held the hotel’s telephone receiver next to Yang Zhilin, "It’s Mrs. Ou from the Ou Family."

"Mrs. Ou?"

Yang Zhilin’s eyes swirled around, seemingly slightly surprised. She hadn’t planned on picking up the call but ended up taking it in her hand.

"Hello, Mrs. Ou," Yang Zhilin said.

"Miss, do you remember me?" Ou Chunhua directly addressed her as ’Miss,’ as if only Yang Zhilin was worthy of the title.

Yang Zhilin, squinting her eyes, leaned back on the sofa, casually twirling her hair with a finger, said, "Mrs. Ou, no one visits without a reason."

"Yes, yes, Miss is right," Ou Chunhua agreed.

Next to Ou Chunhua, Xiao Shulan and Xiao Shuju, hearing the tone of Ou Chunhua’s conversation, were all shocked.

Thinking about who Yang Zhilin was, even someone like Ou Chunhua had to speak respectfully. Hence, they feared more about their old man finding such a formidable support for his son. If Xiao Yebai truly became Yang Family’s son-in-law, no one could touch him.

"It’s like this," Ou Chunhua began explaining the plan she had agreed with the Xiao sisters, "I heard Miss has a very big project in her hands, which coincidentally one of my friends is planning to develop. So, I wanted to inquire about Miss’s thoughts on this."

"Your friend? From where?"

At this, Ou Chunhua smiled mysteriously, "Miss, you surely know the name of my friend, the second and third Miss Xiao. They are very fond and admiring of you and would like to get closer to you."

As if Yang Zhilin had anticipated that these tigers from the Xiao Family would seek to get close to her, she found an outlet for her pent-up frustration, "Really? I heard your friends aren’t so friendly."

Ou Chunhua and Xiao Shulan among others were taken aback.

"Where did Miss hear that?"

"I’ve heard that they are not so good even to their family members, let alone outsiders. I advise you, Mrs. Ou, to be careful," Yang Zhilin warned.

Xiao Shulan and Xiao Shuju’s faces darkened at once. This woman hadn’t even become their sister-in-law yet, and she was already lecturing them. What would it be like once she really ended up with Xiao Yebai?

Xiao Shuju even thought Gu Nuan might be better, at least she was knowledgeable and polite.

Xiao Shulan coughed twice.

Ou Chunhua cheerfully said to her, "Miss must have been misled by rumors. To my knowledge, no one cares more about their family than the second and third Miss Xiao. They are just worried their family might be deceived, resulting in the loss of both relationships and money. Some people are really scheming. Miss, being so intelligent, surely knows that?"

Yang Zhilin’s gaze swirled again.

"Mrs. Ou, there seems to be some truth in your words," Yang Zhilin remarked.

"How does it feel, Miss? Wouldn’t you agree that at the very least, we cannot let certain villains succeed?"

"Are you with your friends now?"

"Yes."

"Mrs. Ou, I want to ask you, why did you suddenly decide to help them?"

"I’m a businesswoman, I only engage in profitable ventures. I heard this project is very profitable and as a Hong Kong resident, I get policy benefits for investing in China—collaborating with them means a win-win. Why wouldn’t I pursue such a beneficial opportunity?"

Yang Zhilin burst out laughing, "Mrs. Ou, you probably think one can never have enough money. I initially thought that having a son was enough for you."
