Chapter 223: Chapter 223: Ou Mucen, I’ve Seen Ou Yuze’s People in Ningzhou

He did indeed mean just that, however, he hadn’t expected her to see through it so quickly.

Ji Chengzhi’s face showed he was having difficulty saving face, "When I say this, I’m reminding you, it’s for your own good."

"Well, thank you for that, but I can handle my own affairs and don’t need Dean Ji’s concern." Having said that, Ye Ning didn’t even take the medicine, she turned around and left the place.

Ji Chengzhi was left standing there, both angry and infuriated for a long time, before he finally picked up the phone and dialed a number.

"Hello?"

"Where on earth do you find these women? Why are they so ungrateful?"

As soon as the other party picked up the call, he started complaining discontentedly.

A woman?

What woman?

The person on the other end frowned slightly upon hearing this outburst like a shrew, "What are you talking about? Don’t you know I’m very busy right now?"

Busy?

It would have been better not to mention it, but as soon as he did, the man holding the phone on this end became even more irritated, "You make it sound like I have all the time in the world. I’m asking you, did your mom see something?"

"What do you mean?"

"What do I mean? She called me last night, asking if I knew about your little assistant? And that child!!!"

"..."

The line went silent, as if all sound had suddenly stopped.

Hearing that, Ji Chengzhi couldn’t help being more sarcastic, "There’s a problem, isn’t there? Just now, I kindly advised that woman to stay away from you, but she didn’t listen and even scolded me for meddling. Why am I so foolish?"

"..."

Continued silence!

However, this time, there was a sound of porcelain clashing from the phone, and upon hearing it, he quieted down as well.

"What did you say to her?"

What did I say?

Ji Chengzhi blurted out, "Of course, I told her to stop clinging to you..."

"You’re sick!"

With those harsh words, the person was about to hang up the phone.

Ji Chengzhi hurriedly said on this end, "What do you mean, Ou Mucen? I’m doing this for your good, aren’t you aware of your mother’s nature? If she learns about the existence of this mother and child, do you think they’ll have a good outcome?"

"So what?"

"So you should break it off with her as soon as possible!"

"..."

That last sentence, Ji Chengzhi swore, he had spoken out of urgency, but by the time he realized what he had said, it was already too late.

"That... Mucen, what I mean is..."

"Have you been too idle lately?"

"No! Absolutely not!" Ji Chengzhi’s head shook like a rattle-drum.

He was joking, how could he be idle? He was so busy every day that he didn’t even have time to get his medication, not to mention the last time he went to Ningzhou for the academic conference, it was his assistant who went on his behalf.

That’s right, Ningzhou!

Ji Chengzhi suddenly recalled something, "That’s right, Mucen, the last time my assistant went to Ningzhou, he said he saw Ou Yuze’s assistant Xiaohe there."

"Ningzhou?"

"Yes, a remote city in the northwest. We went there for the academic meeting only because there was an old Chinese medicine practitioner, otherwise, we wouldn’t have visited such a backward place."

Worried that he might not know the place, Ji Chengzhi explained it in more detail.

Ningzhou...

Upon hearing this name, the man on the other end of the line began to fall into contemplation.

Ningzhou, had he heard of it somewhere?

Right at that moment, Secretary Gao opened the door, saw the president sitting there in deep thought, and approached him with a call, "Third Young Master..."

Ou Mucen looked up and seeing it was him, suddenly, his eyes brightened, "Do you know about Ningzhou?"
