Chapter 168: Concern is chaos
After receiving a call from his mother, Ou Tongyang knew that a lot of things had happened at home recently, Ouyang Yan went home, exposed Liang Jie's true identity, and Ah Shu divorced. Also, her mother recognized Magnolia as her goddaughter, but Ah Shu misunderstood that Magnolia was a scheming girl. Although he didn't know that Ah Shu was divorced, he knew that Ah Shu's marriage was a mistake from the beginning, and the culprit was him. He didn't dare to say it, and he couldn't say it, so he said a lot to his mother and made a lot of defenses for Magnolia, but the reasons were very pale. Although his mother didn't say anything, he knew his mother too well, and he was tolerant and generous, but he would never tolerate a third party, because she herself had suffered greatly and was resentful for half her life, so it was impossible not to be angry with Magnolia. He couldn't imagine how that lily-like weak woman would face the next few days under so much pressure. Therefore, he has been calling Ah Shu, hoping that at this time, Ah Shu can stand up, care for her, and comfort her, but he can't get through. He had to call Magnolia in person, hoping to give her some encouragement before leaving, but he didn't get through. As the eldest son, in this eventful season, he hopes to do something, first to comfort his mother, and secondly to see if he can give Magnolia some help, so he reluctantly creates a chance to return to Hong Kong. There is no problem with her mother, but Magnolia has been hiding from herself here, and she has not been able to comfort and encourage her in person.
Ou Tongyang was thinking about it, the phone rang, it was Xiao Zhou, Ou Tongyang knew that Xiao Zhou was urging himself, it was time to change his clothes and go to the airport.
Ou Tongyang walked to the elevator entrance and saw that the elevator was going upstairs, so he stopped and waited, hoping that the elevator would stop and he could see Magnolia coming out of it, but when he arrived at this floor, the elevator did not stop. He had to walk slowly up the stairs.
From the first time he saw Magnolia, Ou Tongyang had an urge to take care of her, he wanted to protect her and keep her from any harm, this feeling was something he had never felt before, not liking, not attracting, just an impulse to take care of her. The following kidnapping case made his feelings clearer and more determined. Knowing that she was his brother's lover did not let this feeling fade, he still watched silently, hoping that he would help her when she was in trouble like an older brother. Now, Ah Shu can't be contacted, what can she do to help her? She has been avoiding herself, it seems that she wants to completely break away from the Ouyang family.
Xiao Zhou saw Ou Tongyang's helplessness, didn't ask much, and hurriedly prepared clothes for him. Ou Tongyang took a simple shower, changed into casual clothes, and walked towards the elevator surrounded by people.
There were already more than a dozen reporters outside the gate, and it was a temporary group visit arranged by the organizers. Ou Tongyang cheered up and greeted him with a smile.
"May I ask Mr. Ou, why did you choose this hotel for your birthday party? I heard that Miss Magnolia lives in this hotel, are you here to meet her?"
Xiao Zhou looked at Ou Tongyang with some concern.
Ou Tongyang smiled: "Don't you think the environment of this hotel is very good? Anyway, I think it's good, the transportation is convenient, it's easy to find, I like it very much." ”
Fans outside the railing shouted: "Ou Tongyang, we love you! The hotel is easy to find!"
Ou Tongyang shrugged his shoulders proudly at the reporter.
The reporter looked at the fans helplessly, and had to reorganize the question: "Mr. Ou, did you meet with Miss Magnolia alone on this trip to Hong Kong?"
Ou Tongyang teased: "You dare to ask such a private question?" and then Zhengse replied: "Yulan, she is very busy, and I have been busy, so I really haven't seen her this time." ”
"Mr. Ou, you once said that you want to wander the world with Miss Magnolia, may I ask, do you have a timetable?"
Ou Tongyang nodded: "She loves to travel very much, and I also like to walk around." I'm sure it will be soon, she will take her prince charming, I will take my bride, and we will travel the rivers and lakes together, hehe......"
Ou Tongyang smiled heartily, with some childish mischievous expressions. Sure enough, his words made the reporters present grow their mouths. A fast-talking reporter said: "I said why did he answer the question so happily today, and I thought that he had changed sex, but I didn't expect to put us together." Hey, I said Mr. Ou, don't be joking, I heard that you refused to get married and made your father angry, is it true?"
Ou Tongyang couldn't help but laugh: "Where did you hear that? I have never refused to get married, but I just haven't met the right fate." ”
A very calm reporter, who had not spoken, was observing from the side, and then raised his hand and asked, "Mr. Ou, can I say that you have broken up with Miss Magnolia for some reason?"
Ou Tongyang still looked calm and breezy: "Since you are so solemn, then I also solemnly tell you that I have been very close to Miss Bai since we met, and she is like my sister." She's a good screenwriter, hey, it seems that there is a suspicion of advertising, this one can be deleted. So, please pay more attention to our work, thank you very much. ”
Ou Tongyang put his hand in his pocket, this is the secret signal of the end, Xiao Zhou hurriedly stood in front of Ou Tongyang and announced the end of the group visit: "I'm sorry, everyone, Mr. Ou has to catch a plane, it's too late, thank you, thank you!"
Ou Tongyang was behind Xiao Zhou, bowed deeply to the reporters with a smile, then got up and waved to the fans in the distance, and said loudly: "Take care!
Amid the screams of the fans, Ou Tongyang got into the nanny car, leaned on the back of the chair tiredly, and closed his eyes.
Xiao Zhou took out the thermos cup, mixed a little lemon juice into it, and shook the cup, but he didn't dare to call Ou Tongyang.
Ou Tongyang closed his eyes and stretched out his hand, took the cup from Xiao Zhou's hand, and shook it by himself.
"Boss, you've talked a lot today! But I know that's you, and you can settle whatever happens. ”
Ou Tongyang opened his eyes: "What do you mean, I'm the most afraid of fooling." ”
Xiao Zhou hurriedly said: "It's not a fool, I mean, you are such a person, you have a fearless heart, no matter what storms you encounter, you can face it calmly." ”
Ou Tongyang took a sip of water, shook his head, raised one eyebrow, and looked at Xiao Zhou: "It's still flickering!"
Xiao Zhou sighed: "Alas, I don't understand. Anyway, there is a kind of person in this world who is invincible and strong. You're that kind of person. "There was adoration in my eyes.
Ou Tongyang smiled, lowered his head to drink water, but the shadow of Magnolia appeared in his mind. Is Magnolia this kind of person who can't be defeated? If so, how good it is, and she has less to worry about.
In He Maje's car, Magnolia held up the phone, thoughtful.
Seeing Bai Yulan holding the phone in a daze, He Majesty asked whose phone it was, and guessed with a smile: "It won't be Mr. Lu Minxing, right?"
Magnolia put away the phone and shook her head: "No, how could he know my number." ”
He Maxi looked sideways at Magnolia's expression again and again while driving, feeling that he had guessed who it was, seeing that Magnolia didn't say anything, he couldn't ask again, not to mention, now he has more important things to confirm, that is, to continue to ask about Lu Minxing, he hopes to walk closer to Lu Min through Magnolia, after all, Lu Minxing is too important for the publication of "I Camphor I".
Bai Yulan was silent about He Ma's questioning, she understood Lu Minxing's thoughts, and knew that the reason why he hid out was to have a quiet life without interference from the outside world, so she did not hesitate to leave Ou Tongyang, who he had cared for for half his life, and the home that he had long been accustomed to.
Seeing that Bai Yulan refused to say, He Majesty had no choice but to laugh at herself: "Yulan, I found that you are young and hide your secrets very well, I am not as good as you." ”
Magnolia said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I just ...... I just don't know if I should talk about it. Maybe wait, when all this is a thing of the past and has no effect on anyone, you will know everything. ”
He Ma nodded: "Okay, that's all." It was the first time I had met such an author, who neither talked to me about remuneration nor asked for publicity, but hid himself. I don't know what to do in the face of such collaborators. ”
"You see if it is just according to his wishes, after all, it is the peace he has finally found. ”
"Well, it looks like that's all there is to it. My father is coming to Hong Kong in a few days, and I don't dare to tell him that I have found Lu Minxing, and if he knows, he will immediately ask to come to see him in person, and if his father is kicked out by Mr. Lu, the old man will be very sad!"
Bai Yulan thought of Lu Minxing's tone and expression when he drove people away, and she also felt very scary, so she agreed with He Maje's approach: "Yes, I really can't say it, including Mr. Wan, don't let him know." I don't think Mr. Lu is necessarily very close to Mr. Wan Lao. ”
He Ma was suspicious: "How is it possible? What happened after his death, oh, you can't say that, it should be said that all those things he did in Beijing relied on Mr. Wan Lao's help, and they also took pictures together, why are they not close?"
Bai Yulan thought about it, and had to reveal a little: "I once mentioned Mr. Wan, and Mr. Ou doesn't seem to want to see him." ”
"What is your relationship with him, that you can talk to him so much?"
Magnolia closed her mouth again.
"Okay, okay, don't ask. If you reminded me correctly, then I won't tell Mr. Wan. I'm going to be busy next, I can't go over to the Shanghai branch, Yulan, how did you think about going to Shanghai to take up a post?"
Magnolia hesitated and asked, "You really have no other way?"
"Yes, you can expect that many people will come to the publication celebration of "I Xiangzhang", my old man and Mr. Wan will come, and I can't be separated! Fortunately, you have already selected the draft for me next month, otherwise, I can't imagine what it will be like to be busy. There is another thing I need to tell you, when your reading notes are published, there needs to be a small signing ceremony, I am in charge of Hong Kong, and you will arrange it in Shanghai, and you happen to be the author, which is reasonable and meaningful. The first stop is in Shanghai, and the second stop is in Hong Kong......"
"What? Hong Kong? You mean, I'm coming to Hong Kong?"
He Ma looked at Magnolia in surprise: "What do you think? Hong Kong is the place of publishing, and signing here!"
Magnolia muttered quietly, "Can't you do it without signing?" I see that many writers don't sign all their works!"
He Majesty was a little annoyed: "Miss Yulan, what the hell is going on with you? Other writers would rather pay out of their own pockets than engage in signings, they are doing so to increase their influence and understand the market reaction at the same time, but you, six serialized books, don't you even want to sign the first book, don't you really care about sales? However, please also think about it for the "Earth" Publishing House, in order to advertise and engage in printing, we have already invested a lot of money in the early stage, and now I need your full support and cooperation!"
