Reborn: The Godfather Has Fallen For Me

Chapter 376: Selection

Sneaking into the Ouyang family to watch the show was a very interesting thing for Shen Xiaoxiao and Yan Kuan.

If Ouyang Tian’s life was stable, he could at least live to 120 years old. However, not only did he suffer a stroke, but the filial sons and grandsons outside were all pretending to be good. They had been fighting in the dark for a long time.

The internal corruption of the Ouyang family did not need to be said. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that as the representatives of the seven branches of the Ouyang family, they were all sitting in the inner study.

The result of the discussion was out. Although Huo Wanting was the current matriarch of the Ouyang family, she was a woman. She was not allowed to enter the Ouyang family’s inner courtyard.

Huo Wanting watched Ouyang Jincheng walk in alone. She was actually a little worried because Ouyang Jincheng’s fighting strength was actually not that great. Now, she only hoped that he could be more mindful. Fortunately, his second and third brothers followed him in. Although it was not very useful, they were in the same boat after all. They could not sit idly by and do nothing.

Moreover, although Huo Wanting and the others were not on good terms with the other houses, they usually had a good relationship with the elders. Previously, she had also asked someone to send a generous gift and promised that as long as the house was successful, their house would definitely not forget them.

Huo Wanting was anxious and worried, but she could only bring her three sons to guard the door.

From 1 pm until 7 pm, no one left the inner study.

At 8 pm, night had fallen. An Ning had been transferred from the Inner Courtyard to Ouyang Tian’s bedroom. At this moment, no one cared about her anymore. Besides the family doctor and some servants, no one else came to see the old man. Everyone’s eyes were fixed on the inner study.

“Grandfather, wake up quickly. If you don’t wake up soon, they will take over the position of the head of the family. At that time, I will be the first one to lose my life. How can you bear to let me die like this? You said that you would protect me for the rest of my life. You said that.”

An Ning couldn’t help but cry. In fact, she knew that she wasn’t Ouyang Tian’s granddaughter at all, but his daughter. She was also the b*stard child of Ouyang Tian and Ouyang Jinling. However, she could only pretend that she didn’t know. Not only that… She had to act extremely cooperative because it was really too difficult to survive in the Ouyang family.

As long as she wasn’t willing to be a mediocre person who lived on a few thousand yuan a month, An Ning would make such a choice.

At the age of 18, she entered the entertainment industry. She had enjoyed too much over the years and earned too much money. However, all this money was spent on the Ouyang family. Now that she was no longer in the entertainment industry, she didn’t have any income. If she only had a little money every month… It was too cruel for An Ning.

That was why she wasn’t willing. That was why she felt that she had given up so much for nothing in the end. Rather than that, she might as well throw caution to the wind and be with Ouyang Tian. At least that way… In her entire life, no one dared to look down on her or bully her.

An Ning was good at everything, but she did not expect Ouyang Tian to fall at this time.

As Ouyang Tian’s favorite granddaughter, An Ning knew how Ouyang Tian’s health was. In particular, Ouyang Tian had told her that the life expectancy of the head of the Ouyang family was usually around 120 years old. Therefore, he could at least guarantee An Ning’s position to be consolidated for the remaining 30 years. Of course, she did not mind having a child. Regardless of whether it was a boy or a girl, her life would be truly complete.

Ouyang Tian’s face was flushed red as he lay there. The swelling below had already subsided, but there was still blood on his head. It would be fine if he were to operate on it, but Ouyang Tian was the person who hated to be operated on the most. This was definitely not the time to let Ouyang Tian perform the surgery. If anything happened in the operating theater midway, no one would dare to take the responsibility.

Therefore, it had always been a conservative treatment. Seeing that Ouyang Tian’s head was filled with silver needles, An Ning could not help but watch this scene drag on. She could only quietly whisper in Ouyang Tian’s ear when the family doctor and servants could not see her. An Ning saw that Ouyang Tian’s eyebrows moved when he heard those words. She was delighted and did not care whether those words should come out of her mouth or not. She continued to work hard and even added oil to the fire…

The Inner Courtyard.

When it was 9 o’clock, the door creaked open and the courtyard was brightly lit. Not only that, everyone was looking at the people who came out in high spirits even though they had waited for a day and a night.

Everyone’s expression was different, especially Ouyang Jincheng’s. His expression could be described as ashen.

Huo Wanting looked at his appearance. What else was there that she didn’t understand? Did he lose the selection?

As the eldest son of the first wife, he actually lost the selection? How was this possible?

“Because of the clan leader’s sudden accident, our elders and the descendants of the clan leader’s seventh house discussed and the fourth son, Ouyang Li, will temporarily take over the position of clan leader. All orders will be followed by Ouyang Li’s instructions.”

“What? It’s the fourth house?”

“It’s actually Ouyang Li?”

“It’s actually that b*stard?”

“I guessed it would be him. He’s the most powerful one in our generation. If we don’t choose him, no one would have the ability to lead the Ouyang clan to a step further.”

“Come on, you’ve been with him for a long time, right? But it’s better to be Ouyang Li than the eldest son. Otherwise, we b*stards will have no way to survive.”

“Yeah, it’s better than the eldest son!”

Whether it was Huo Wanting or the other three sons of the eldest son, they were all better. Hearing those comments, they were like fire hats. She had suffered a lot because of her identity as the matriarch of the Ouyang family since she was young. But after decades, she still did not get the position she wanted. How could she be willing? How could she be willing?

At this moment, Huo Wanting did not care about anything else. She directly said to the elders, “You have all grown up. Since ancient times, the Ouyang family has always paid attention to the difference between the direct line and the illegitimate line. Moreover, I don’t need to say much about Ouyang Li’s identity. Everyone should know. How can such a person bear the heavy responsibility of the Ouyang family?”

“Eldest Madam is overthinking. Now is not the time for the Ouyang family to choose the family head. Instead, it is the most critical moment. I think everyone knows the Ouyang family’s actions in the near future. At this moment, the life and death of the family head is unknown. The only person who is most familiar with the orders of the family head is Ouyang Li. As for the Eldest Master, he is really not the person who can bear the heavy responsibility at this time.”

“Even if it’s not my eldest son, there is still a second and third son. Why would he choose his grandson? Our eldest son also has three sons to inherit. Regardless of which one it is, this Ouyang Li is not qualified.”

“The Eldest Son indeed has three sons. It’s just that the incident that happened the day before yesterday, the Eldest Madam didn’t forget it, right? Everyone remembered it clearly. The Eldest and Second Young Masters have bad morals, and they could do things like sisters marrying easily. How could such a person guide our thousand-year-old aristocratic family?

“As for the Second Master and Third Master, they do not have any male heirs. This is already beyond the successor.”

“As the person with the purest bloodline in the Ouyang clan, Pei Li’s methods are outstanding, and he also has his own private property. This kind of person was the most suitable for the Ouyang clan.”
