Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

Ouyang Qing attended a prestigious institution, whereas Ouyang Li was a student at a typical university of finance

and economics. After graduating, she was an average employee at Sunshine Corporation, always keeping a low

profile and avoiding public scrutiny.

“I'm back, Li. Why are you packing your bags? Are you leaving?” Ouyang Qi asked.

“Where's Mom?” Ouyang Li asked. “Isn't she out?”

“Yes, she is, but she remained in Flower City. Dad is missing, and she wants to stay to find out if the Nan family has

taken him,” he explained.

She didn't say a word and continued packing.

“Where are you going, Li? You can't leave. Our family is falling apart. What will happen to Mom and me if you

leave?” Ouyang Qi said.

“Mom and Dad have always favored Ouyang Qing more. Am I only important now during a critical situation?”

Ouyang Li sneered.

What she said was the truth. In the Ouyang family, Ouyang Qi was incompetent, while Ouyang Li lacked beauty and

accomplishments. Thus, their parents preferred Ouyang Qing, who was both beautiful and intelligent.

Ouyang Duo was permanently in Flower City, scheming to bring down the Nan family, leaving Ouyang Li to manage

the affairs in Pearl City.

It became the norm for her to handle these matters as time passed.

She didn't utter a single complaint, and Ouyang Qing continued being the belle of the family.

Everyone seemed to have forgotten that the Ouyang family had two daughters, only remembering Ouyang Qing.

“Li, I know you have made a lot of sacrifices for the family, and Mom and Dad are wrong to treat you that way, but

you can't leave now,” Ouyang Qi advised.

“Why can't I? The Nan family resides in Flower City. How should I seek revenge for our family if I stayed in Pearl

City?” Ouyang Li retorted.

“You're going to Flower City? To retaliate against the Nan family?” He was surprised.

Although Ouyang Li wasn't as inept as him, she was so lackluster that he didn't think she would wish to exact

vengeance.

“Li, I do not wish to speak ill of Dad, but he has done awful things to the Nan family. They didn't even show mercy to

their youngest child and brought this upon themselves. This revenge...”

“Whatever he did, he's dead now, and I have to avenge him,” Ouyang Li said casually, which came as a shock to

Ouyang Qi.

“What did you say? Dad is dead?”

She pointed to a corner in the room. “His ashes are there.”

He rushed over and saw a portrait of Ouyang Duo. There was an urn, incense, and candles in front of it.

“What is going on? Didn't Dad run away? This can't be real. It can't be...” He almost lost it.

“It happened while he was fleeing to the border. His body was returned home by a friend. I had it cremated and

brought his ashes home,” she replied.

Ouyang Qi lost his mind and hugged the urn to himself, sobbing loudly.

Ouyang Li maintained an even expression. “Do you still think revenge is unnecessary? Should we let him die in

vain?”

His throat constricted with grief, and he passed out from weeping.

When he regained consciousness, he noticed she was still packing her luggage.

“Shouldn't we have a funeral for Dad?” He couldn't wrap his head around her unemotional behavior. It wasn't even

calm anymore, just pure indifference.

“Why should we, when we haven't gotten revenge for him? He failed to carry out his plot and paid with his life. It's

embarrassing if others find out. Dad is a fugitive now. No one will sympathize with him or attend his funeral. I have

selected a burial plot. We shall bury him after performing a few modest rites at his cemetery. He's gone and will

never return, no matter how much you cry. The living is more important.”

Ouyang Qi was unable to refute Ouyang Li's logic, but he still thought she was being too apathetic.

“Why didn't you inform Mom and me about this? Would you have buried Dad without our knowledge if I hadn't

returned?” He was a little disheartened.

“What good would telling you do besides causing more hurt? Would Dad come back to life if you and Mom had

known?” Ouyang Li hurled back.

“But we're his family...”

“So, why didn't you protect him in Flower City? Why did you allow the Nan family to vanquish him?”

Ouyang Qi couldn't answer her.

“Dad's death is the result of his failure as much as your incompetence. Every single one of you is useless and smug.

So quit crying. Why didn't you do something earlier? If crying could solve problems, then everyone should be

hugging themselves and suffering. But does it solve anything?” Ouyang Li asked.

A desolate aura emanated from Ouyang Qi as he realized his sister suddenly seemed unfamiliar and frightening.

Has she always been this way, and no one noticed it, or did Dad's passing trigger the switch in her?

“I think we should tell Mom and postpone the burial until she arrives,” he said.

“Do as you wish. I'll leave this to you now that you're back. I have more pressing matters to attend to,” Ouyang Li

replied coldly.

“What will you do?”

“I've said it—I will seek revenge for Dad.”

“How? By blowing up the Nan residence? Ouyang Qing tried it, and you still want to tear your way in?”

Ouyang Li eyed him, her tone icy. “Don't compare me with Ouyang Qing. I'm not as stupid as her.”

The phone rang as soon as she finished speaking, and she walked away to answer it.

After hanging up, she scribbled a phone number on a piece of paper and handed it to him.

“This is the cemetery's number, and they have also arranged for a priest. Contact them when you're ready for the

burial. Leave the ashes if you don't want a burial. They're not going to rot anyway.” Coldness seeped through his

bones at her words, devoid of any warmth as if a stranger had passed rather than her biological father.

“I have something to do, so I'm heading out now.” With that, she left, and the sound of the car ignition turning on

could be heard from outside.

Ouyang Li strode into a clubhouse in Pearl City a few minutes later and saw a stylishly dressed young woman.

She was beautiful, with big eyes and an oval face. Her features were near perfect, but her expression was glacial.

“Are you Ouyang Li?” She raised her head and glanced at her.

“So you're Jin Fei, huh?” Ouyang Li returned.

“Watch your tone,” Jin Fei warned arrogantly.

“I'd like to know how my dad died,” Ouyang Li asked.

“Didn't I tell you that he got into a car accident while escaping to the border? My husband is a friend of your dad's,

and we brought his remains home. Are you accusing us of having a hand in your dad's death with these questions?”

Jin Fei came face to face with Ouyang Li and stared her down.
