Chapter 877 She Was Not Foolish
Tang Jing gaped in utter shock.
She had guessed that either Nan Chen or Ning Ran had offended Ouyang Li, but she didn't expect Ouyang Li to hate
them so much.
Previously, Ouyang Li had expressed her contempt for Ouyang Qing's behavior, believing that Ouyang Qing's
craziness and foolishness had led to the downfall of the Ouyang family.
What she said corresponded to what she did.
She didn't get into a relationship and was solely focused on her work, determined to revitalize Sunshine Corporation
and defeat Nanshi Corporation.
However, at present, the obvious dark circles under her eyes and the insane look of hatred she wore made her
seem like a completely different person.
It was difficult for a person who was controlled by hatred to remain rational and make objective and accurate
judgments. Love and hate were both extreme emotions. Like the two sides of a coin, they could make people go
crazy and even cause them to suffer a mental breakdown. In Buddhism, greed, anger, and delusion were
considered the three poisons, and “anger” represented fury, resentment, and the psychological tendency to harm
others. It was deeply-rooted and was also the hardest to cure among all types of psychological distress.
Ouyang Li's current hysterical state was also tricky to deal with.
However, it was a great opportunity for Tang Jing.
“Why, Ms. Ouyang?” Tang Jing asked tentatively.
“Don't ask me why! There are no reasons! I don't care what means you use! I want you to destroy Nan Chen,
preferably to the point of driving him insane!” Ouyang Li said in a hateful tone.
Tang Jing didn't speak. Did Nan Chen offend her? Or was it Ning Ran?
Tang Jing was a smart person, but despite her sharpness, she couldn't figure out the reason why Ouyang Li hated
Nan Chen to the bone.
“But... I'm afraid it's not that easy...” Tang Jing said.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Do you want Ouyang Qi to come back safely?” Once again, Ouyang Li interrupted Tang Jing.
“Well...”
“If you want Ouyang Qi to come back safely, you have to come up with a way to deal with Nan Chen. Just use any
means necessary. It'd be better if you can make it quick and ruthless!” Ouyang Li hollered.
Tang Jing finally understood that Ouyang Li's main target was Nan Chen, so it must have been Nan Chen who
offended her.
This was understandable. The two companies were competitors, and the conflicts that arose from business
competition would naturally affect personal relationships.
There weren't many who could separate personal affairs from professional affairs and get along in private despite
competing aggressively in public.
One would need a broad perspective and an open mind to achieve such a feat, and Ouyang Li clearly did not
possess either of those qualities.
“Do you have any suggestions, Ms. Li? The Nan family is too powerful, and I'm just an ordinary actress. I don't think
I'll pose a threat to Nan Chen with my limited influence,” Tang Jing said cautiously.
“Do you have any suggestions, Ms. Li? The Nan family is too powerful, and I'm just an ordinary actress. I don't think
I'll pose a threat to Nan Chen with my limited influence,” Tang Jing said cautiously.
She was, indeed, telling the truth. It was nearly impossible for her to accomplish such a feat.
“If I had any ideas, I would've done it myself! Why would I need to ask you? You should get a bottle of strong acid
and splash it on his face to ruin his appearance! Let's see how he's going to remain high and mighty without that
face of his!” Ouyang Li said agitatedly.
Tang Jing was once again shocked. What is wrong with Ouyang Li? How could she have such extreme thoughts?
She's crazier than Ouyang Qing!
Previously, although Ouyang Qing shared the same goal as Ouyang Li to deal with Nan Chen, she didn't target Nan
Chen directly and instead went for Ning Ran and the children. She was trying to get to Nan Chen by destroying his
family.
However, Ouyang Li was now planning to harm Nan Chen directly and even disfigure him. What is wrong with this
woman?
“This is even less feasible. Nan Chen often has bodyguards protecting him, so it's difficult for us to make that work
in one fell swoop. If we fail, we'll all get in trouble. We must learn from Ouyang Qing's mistake and be cautious.
Nanshi Corporation is a big and influential company, so there are many people in Flower City who want to take Nan
Chen down. Some of them are even skilled experts. However, Nan Chen has always been resilient and undefeated,
and I doubt luck is the sole reason he survived. I think we need to carefully consider our options and not make any
reckless moves,” Tang Jing said warily.
Slap!
Ouyang Li abruptly stood up and gave Tang Jing a hard slap across the face.
Still not satisfied, she slapped her twice more times. “I don't want to hear any excuses! No matter how powerful
Nan Chen is, he's still human, so he's not invincible! Since you won't listen to me, then come up with an idea
yourself! I want you to destroy Nan Chen, or I'll let Ouyang Qi die abroad!”
Tang Jing was infuriated after being slapped in the face, but she had no choice but to endure in silence.
Ouyang Qi was the person she had bet all her chips on and her only chance to turn things around. She couldn't let
Ouyang Qi die abroad.
Her chances of turning the tables depended on Ouyang Qi, and as long as he could return, she would stand a
chance to become the mistress of a prominent family and obtain both fame and fortune just like Ning Ran. It would
be a dream come true.
She was willing to pay any price for the sake of achieving that goal. Even if Ouyang Li beat her up to the point of
hospitalization, she would still endure it in silence.
“Ms. Li, calm down. I will think of a solution as soon as possible. I promise,” Tang Jing said, cradling her burning
cheeks.
“As long as you succeed in bringing Nan Chen down, I'll make Ouyang Qi marry you, and you'll get what you want. If
you can't do it, then Ouyang Qi will die abroad, and you can forget about marrying into the Ouyang family!” Ouyang

“Okay. I got it,” Tang Jing replied.
Deep down, however, she sneered. I will achieve my own goals through my own efforts, you ugly b*tch! I don't need
to rely on you! One day, I'm going to make you have a taste of your own medicine, you despicable woman!
Later in the day, Ning Ran received a call from Tang Jing, saying that there was an urgent matter she needed to
discuss with her.
Tang Jing hadn't seen Ning Ran again ever since the filming of the reality show was wrapped up.
The promotion of their new movie had been ongoing, but Tang Jing, as a supporting actress, had not made
appearances in the promotional events.
Ning Ran found it hard to understand Tang Jing's character. Tang Jing was always cautious in her actions and always
handled things perfectly and flawlessly.
However, meticulous and flawless people like her often had hidden secrets, so Ning Ran never really considered
Tang Jing her true friend and didn't trust her enough to confide in her.
Ning Ran was not foolish even though she was an easygoing person. She felt an instant connection with Lu Jingyuan
and considered Rong Rong as her sister because she could sense their genuine sincerity.
As for some of her acquaintances whom she found hard to connect with on a deeper level, Ning Ran would just
interact with them perfunctorily.
Since she had prior plans to have dinner with the children later that night, Ning Ran declined Tang Jing's invitation to
have dinner together and only agreed to meet up for a drink in the afternoon.
Tang Jing, being a disciplined person who adopted a healthy lifestyle, never drank milk tea, so the two of them met
at a cafe. Ning Ran asked for a glass of water while Tang Jing ordered a cup of coffee.
Ning Ran would make coffee for Nan Chen every night whenever she was at home. Over time, she had become
quite particular about the quality of coffee, thinking that the coffee in cafes was not as good as the coffee she
brewed herself, and the taste always fell short.
Without much small talk, Tang Jing went straight to the point “There's something I need your help with.”
