"You!!"
Ouyang Qing was furious when he heard Duan Lingtian's words, but he was speechless.
After all, what Duan Lingtian said made sense.
He did save his sister's life.
"Alright, Qing 'er, Little Brother Duan is a guest and Ruo' er's savior. Don't be rude."
Ouyang Ba was the one who spoke at the critical moment.
"Little Brother Duan, thank you for saving my daughter's life."
Ouyang Ba stood up and clasped his hands at Duan Lingtian to express his gratitude.
"You're welcome, Ouyang Clan Leader. It's just a small matter."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and said, "Now that I've thanked you, if there's nothing else, Ouyang Clan Leader, it's time for me to go back … I have an appointment with my elder at the inn tonight."
Elder?
Ouyang Ba and Ouyang Ruo looked at each other when they heard Duan Lingtian's words. They saw the joy in each other's eyes.
"No matter what, I'll have to invite Little Brother Duan tonight to thank you for saving my daughter's life … As for Little Brother Duan's elder, he'll have to attend as well. Why don't I go with Little Brother Duan to invite your elder? "
Ouyang Ba said to Duan Ling Tian. His words were sincere.
Duan Lingtian had fabricated an 'elder' so that he could get away as soon as possible.
Who would have thought that the Ouyang Clan Leader would be so stubborn that he would personally go with him to invite that elder to the Ouyang Clan?
"Ouyang Clan Leader, I'm afraid this won't work … My elder doesn't like to meet outsiders."
Duan Lingtian shook his head and said.
"Doesn't like to meet outsiders?"
Ouyang Qing sneered. "He's really arrogant, but I wonder if he's really capable."
"Ouyang Clan Leader, it seems like your son doesn't welcome me … I'll take my leave now."
Duan Lingtian was not upset when he saw that Ouyang Qing was going against him. Instead, he was amused. He clasped his hands at Ouyang Ba and turned to leave after he finished speaking.
"Little Brother Duan, please wait!"
Seeing this, Ouyang Ba immediately panicked.
When he heard that a senior from the Duan Lingtian family was coming, his first thought was to meet that senior from the Duan Lingtian family and build a good relationship with him. It would only be beneficial to the Ouyang family.
"My son is not sensible, please forgive him."
After Ouyang Ba finished his sentence, he turned around to look at Ouyang Qing and bellowed, "Unfilial son, why are you still standing here? I shouldn't have let you come along. "
Ouyang Qing was stunned when he heard Ouyang Ba's roar and saw Ouyang Ba's furious expression.
This was the first time in his life that he had seen his father throw such a tantrum at him, and it was because of an outsider.
Immediately, he felt his chest fill with anger, ready to burst out at any moment!
"Humph!"
Ouyang Qing left in a huff. When he passed by Duan Lingtian, he glared at Duan Lingtian before leaving the hall.
"Ouyang Family Head, farewell!"
Duan Lingtian did not wait for Ouyang Ba's explanation as he strode out. He would be a fool not to take advantage of such a good opportunity.
"You're not allowed to leave!"
However, Duan Lingtian forgot about one person, and that was Ouyang Ruo. She blocked Duan Lingtian's path first.
"Young Lady Ouyang, is this how you treat your savior?"
Duan Lingtian's face darkened slightly. "If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have saved you back then."
"You!!"
Ouyang Ruo was so furious that her expression changed.
Duan Lingtian did not show any courtesy to Ouyang Ruo. He moved aside and left the Ouyang Family's hall.
However, he was stopped again outside the Ouyang Family's hall.
This time, the person who stopped him was the Ouyang Family's housekeeper, Ouyang Ji.
"Housekeeper Ji, are you trying to stop me too?"
Duan Lingtian narrowed his eyes as a cold gleam flickered in his eyes.
"Young Master Duan, please don't make things difficult for me."
Ouyang Ji smiled bitterly.
He did not dare to let this person leave without the Family Head's permission.
"Housekeeper Ji, let Young Brother Duan leave."
At this moment, Ouyang Ba spoke.
"Father!"
Ouyang Ruo's expression changed. She did not expect her father to let Duan Lingtian leave so easily. It took her a lot of effort to draw his portrait and find him.
However, Ouyang Ba ignored Ouyang Ruo. Instead, he looked at Duan Lingtian and said, "Young Brother Duan, I apologize to you for what happened today. Tomorrow morning, I'll prepare a generous gift and personally apologize to you. "
"There's no need for that."
Duan Lingtian replied nonchalantly and left.
After leaving the Ouyang Family's mansion, Duan Lingtian felt his body lighten. He felt like a bird flying in the vast sky and a fish swimming in the vast sea.
In the Ouyang Family's hall, Ouyang Ruo looked at Ouyang Ba and asked with a frown, "Father, why did you let him leave just like that?"
"In that situation earlier, what else could I have done? Force him to stay? "
Ouyang Ba shook his head, "I'm afraid that many people in Han River City already know that he came to our Ouyang Clan … Not to mention the forces that have been keeping an eye on our Ouyang Clan, even the people behind him probably already know that he came to our Ouyang Clan."
Ouyang Ruo fell silent when she heard Ouyang Ba's words.
"Father, his background is definitely not simple … Are we going to let him go just like that?"
Ouyang Ruo said with some reluctance.
"Of course, we can't let him go just like that. Tomorrow morning, I'll prepare a generous gift and apologize to him. At that time, I'll bring your brother along to apologize to him as well. "
Ouyang Ba could not help but frown when he mentioned Ouyang Qing. "Qing 'er has really disappointed me this time!"
"Father, don't blame Brother. He's just feeling injustice for you … I don't know why that person with the surname Duan is so secretive. He's not even willing to say his name."
Ouyang Ruo pleaded for Ouyang Qing first. However, when she mentioned Duan Lingtian, she looked upset again.
"He doesn't have a good impression of our Ouyang Family."
As the Clan Leader of the Ouyang Family and a powerful force in Han River City, Ouyang Ba's judgment of people was still very accurate. "Ruo 'er, did you miss out anything from what you told me earlier? I felt that he seemed to be hostile toward you when he met you. "
"Hostile toward me?"
Ouyang Ruo was stunned. Although she knew that Duan Lingtian seemed to dislike her, she did not expect that Duan Lingtian was hostile toward her.
"Yes."
Ouyang Ba nodded.
"Could it be that I asked you to invite him here by force? Is that why he's hostile toward me? "
Ouyang Ruo was puzzled.
"I don't think it's that simple … I feel that his hostility toward you is not something that was formed overnight."
Ouyang Ba shook his head. "Think about it again. Did you miss out on any details?"
Just as Ouyang Ruo was racking her brains, Ouyang Qing saw Duan Lingtian walking out of their Ouyang Family's mansion with his own eyes.
"Boy, my father and sister said that you have a seventh-rate force behind you … I'd like to see if you're just playing tricks!"
A faint sneer appeared at the corner of Ouyang Qing's mouth.
At the same time, he went to the Ouyang Family's backyard and found a white-haired old man.
"Grandpa Shan, there's someone who's plotting against our Ouyang Family … He even lied that he's from a seventh-rate force. My father seems to believe him."
