Chapter 2957

The two held hands and sat on a bench by the road. Yan Xiwan explained everything to Ouyang Tianyun in detail.

"So I suspect Guan Feiyan is definitely up to no good," Yan Xiwan said.

"If she is, then we should just deal with her directly," Ouyang Tianyun replied.

Yan Xiwan shook her head. "In one month, on the eleventh, it will be Wushuang and Zuo Xiangmeng’s wedding day. Wushuang said the invitations have been sent to the butler. Guan Feiyan will surely come then. I plan to make my move at that time."

She spoke calmly. "Our reputation has been tarnished by her. No matter what, I must reclaim our dignity in public."

She added, "But to stop her from having false hopes, you should issue a statement beforehand. Make it clear it has nothing to do with her personally, so she thinks the matter is over."

A rare hint of wickedness appeared on Yan Xiwan’s face. "I love seeing the despair on the faces of those who try to scheme against us."

Who did she think she was messing with? To scheme against this couple was to seek death. Since she was asking for it, both Yan Xiwan and Ouyang Tianyun were happy to oblige.

Ouyang Tianyun nodded. "I will have the Ouyang family issue a statement tomorrow. As for our personal statement, we will save that for the eleventh."

If Guan Feiyan was smart, she would stop using their names. If she continued to cause trouble, her fate on the eleventh would not be easy to calculate.

Yan Xiwan smiled. "I think the same. Since someone likes to stir up trouble, we should give them the chance. Otherwise, we would be letting down their efforts."

Fortunately, no one heard this. If they had, someone might have jumped out to complain, "What else could you two do but cause trouble? It’s simply bullying."

Ouyang Tianyun wrapped his large hand tightly around Yan Xiwan’s small one. "With such rumors, did you ever doubt me?"

"Doubt?" Yan Xiwan laughed. "Doubt what? Doubt you? I’d rather eat two extra bowls of rice. In this world, I would doubt anyone before I doubted you."

Because of trust, there was no room for doubt. Yan Xiwan had understood this early on.

Since she had chosen Ouyang Tianyun, she trusted her completely. No matter what the rumors said, she would not believe them. Only if she saw with her own eyes that she had betrayed her would she turn away without hesitation.

Hearing Yan Xiwan’s firm words of trust, Ouyang Tianyun’s expression brightened considerably. "To be honest, I don’t even know this Guan Feiyan. I have no idea why she is latching onto me."

"We can secretly observe her later to confirm if she is reborn or a time-traveler," Yan Xiwan said with a smile. "My mother said there are many such bugs in this world. I didn’t expect to find several in just one year. Qiu Ju is one, Tian Chunxiang is another, Senior Sister Hongmei counts as one too. Now Guan Feiyan has appeared."

Yan Xiwan raised an eyebrow. "It’s strange. Why are they all women? Where are the men?"

Ouyang Tianyun admitted he didn’t know the answer either. "Honestly, I don’t know. If you ask me, I really don’t know."

Yan Xiwan made a funny face at him. "It doesn’t matter if you don’t know. I never expected you to tell me anyway."

Seeing her like this, Ouyang Tianyun gently poked her nose. "Are you already rejecting me?"

"How dare I? I’m telling the truth," Yan Xiwan said with a grin. "Besides, if I’m wrong, tell me why it’s always women when things happen."

Ouyang Tianyun chuckled. "I don’t know the specifics, but generally, there are only a few reasons. First, it might just be coincidence that they are women now. Perhaps the next one will be a man."

Yan Xiwan agreed. "That is possible."

Ouyang Tianyun continued, "Second, it might be related to emotion and rationality. Generally, women are more emotional than men, and men are more rational than women. In most cases, women use more emotion in their actions."

Yan Xiwan tilted her head and thought. "You mean because women are too emotional, they sometimes act irrationally, creating an opportunity for time travel or rebirth?"

Ouyang Tianyun nodded. "That is just my guess. The specifics depend on the situation."

Yan Xiwan nodded. "You make sense. I think the second theory fits reality better."

Ouyang Tianyun said, "Actually, whether it’s the first or second theory, the guess doesn’t matter. What matters is that you observe and assess them. Keep the kind ones, eliminate the unkind ones."

Yan Xiwan’s eyes lit up. "You’re right. One or two of them don’t matter, as long as they don’t change the historical trajectory or disrupt the balance of the Heavenly Dao of this plane. I won’t interfere."

Life is not easy. Yan Xiwan did not like to arbitrarily take lives. But if a life became a problem, she would have no choice but to act.

"Did Qiu Ju bring this upon herself?" Yan Xiwan asked Ouyang Tianyun.

"Almost. Her real estate business has gone bankrupt. Now she is involved with Boss Sha and has become a social butterfly there." Ouyang Tianyun had no sympathy for such people. "In a few days, when the time is right, we will go over there. You can handle her then."

Yan Xiwan nodded. Living like that was suffering. Moreover, such resentment could cause turmoil in the Heavenly Dao plane. It was better to deal with it early.

Next, Yan Xiwan and Ouyang Tianyun focused on the statement.

The statement was issued by the Ouyang family. It stated that Guan Feiyan’s claim of being Ouyang Tianyun’s girlfriend was false. Ouyang Tianyun already had a fiancée named Yan Xiwan.

The statement was personally issued by Ouyang Tianyun’s father, so it was quickly received by all the noble families in the capital.

The head of the Guan family looked at Guan Feiyan. "Didn’t you say Ouyang Tianyun would ignore this?"

Guan Feiyan couldn’t say that the system had told her this. Instead, she said, "Father, look. This statement is from Grandpa Ouyang, not Ouyang Tianyun. This shows Ouyang Tianyun doesn’t care. Wait and see. I will definitely win Ouyang Tianyun over."

That was right. Guan Feiyan had a system from the future. She had obtained it when she was fifteen, after being bullied at school and fainting.

The system gave her intelligence, beauty, and skills. Of course, the system didn’t give these for free. It required her to conquer certain people.

Through the system, she learned that her world was just a small world created by others. Naturally, there were male and female leads. But what she didn’t expect was that there would be a World Lord in this world, and that person was Ouyang Tianyun.

The system told her that if she could conquer Ouyang Tianyun, she would become superior to everyone else.

However, after learning about Ouyang Tianyun, she discovered she already had a fiancée.

From the various novels provided by the system, she learned one thing: any couple could be broken up. So she spread that rumor.

The rumor had two purposes. One was to make Ouyang Tianyun aware of her existence. The other was to make Ouyang Tianyun’s fiancée doubt her, thereby breaking them up.

"Feiyan, I appreciate your cleverness. But once the Ouyang family sets their mind on someone, others have no chance," the head of the Guan family said.

She looked at Guan Feiyan. "You’d better think carefully. Of course, if you really can win Ouyang Tianyun over, I will be very happy."

Guan Feiyan looked confident. "Father, rest assured. The Ouyang family’s reaction is within my expectations."

"Oh? Then tell me, what is your purpose in doing this?" The head of the Guan family looked at Guan Feiyan and believed her about seventy or eighty percent.

Guan Feiyan smiled. "The purpose is very simple. I want to make Ouyang Tianyun’s fiancée doubt him. Only when problems arise between them can I take advantage of the situation."

"But what you did can still be investigated," the head of the Guan family said.

Guan Feiyan replied, "So what if it is investigated? The statement was issued by Grandpa Ouyang, not Ouyang Tianyun. What does this mean? It means Ouyang Tianyun might not know yet. But this doesn’t mean his fiancée doesn’t know. I assume this statement was made by Grandpa Ouyang for Ouyang Tianyun’s fiancée."

Guan Feiyan paused. "As long as Ouyang Tianyun’s fiancée is dissatisfied with him, my plan succeeds. Father, you should know that it is hard for a man to pursue a woman, but easy for a woman to pursue a man. Once they separate, I can pursue him boldly. Even if Ouyang Tianyun ignores me at first, won’t he eventually pay attention after a long time?"

The head of the Guan family thought it made sense. "You are right. But you must know that the Ouyang family is difficult to deal with. You must be prepared for a long battle."

"Father, don’t worry. I have a plan," Guan Feiyan answered seriously.

In reality, Guan Feiyan was far from calm inside.

So after leaving the head of the Guan family, she went straight to her room. "System, what is going on with the Ouyang family’s statement? Didn’t you say the Ouyang family wouldn’t care about this?"

"I said the Ouyang family is unlikely to interfere in the next generation’s affairs, but I didn’t guarantee it," the system said. "Besides, since you spread the rumor, you should have expected this situation."
