My Toxic Ex-Wife: BOSS, Stay Away！-Chapter 178 - 177: Do You Think I Would Be Afraid of Being Slandered?

Since someone has already prepared food for Ouyang Hao, there’s no need for her to stay here. Lin Yixun picked up the food box and was about to leave when suddenly Ouyang Hao’s voice sounded behind her.

"Hey, blockhead, what are you doing standing at the door? Come in quickly."

Lin Yixun’s back stiffened; she couldn’t advance or retreat. But in the end, she braced herself and entered the ward. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

Compared to the morning, Ouyang Hao looked much better, clearly his health had improved. She stood awkwardly not too far and not too close to Ouyang Hao’s bed. Despite the spacious ward having only three people, she felt a bit cramped and stifled.

In contrast to Lin Yixun’s unease, Li Yun’er seemed much more at ease. She scrutinized Lin Yixun from head to toe, her gaze lingering on the scar on Lin Yixun’s face for a second before moving away.

She couldn’t understand how Ouyang Hao could be interested in a woman with a ruined appearance.

Li Yun’er withdrew her gaze and looked at Ouyang Hao on the bed, continuing their previous topic, "Have you thought it over?"

Ouyang Hao replied nonchalantly, "You should know, I’m not interested in award ceremonies."

"Even if you’re not interested, you can still attend. Besides, appearing with me can help promote your new album."

"It’s not necessary." Every song Ouyang Hao handled could hit the charts, he didn’t need gossip to gain exposure.

"I know you’re well-established and don’t need this, but I do." Li Yun’er leaned in closer and whispered in a voice only they could hear, "Ouyang Hao, don’t forget, you still owe me."

Ouyang Hao stared at Li Yun’er for a few seconds, then looked at the expressionless Lin Yixun not far away. He suddenly called out loudly to Lin Yixun, "Lin Yixun, I’m a bit thirsty. Go outside and get some hot water for me."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yixun felt a huge relief. The room felt too crowded with three people; she needed an excuse to go out and catch her breath.

Estimating that Lin Yixun had walked far enough, Ouyang Hao got straight to the point with Li Yun’er without beating around the bush, "I’ll agree to attend the award ceremony with you, but I have one condition."

"What condition?"

"After the award ceremony, we go our separate ways."

Li Yun’er naturally understood Ouyang Hao’s meaning. She still remembered their agreement. Ouyang Hao had publicly announced their relationship back then to divert public attention. Now that the goal had been achieved, their act should come to an end.

Feeling a mix of emotions, Li Yun’er smiled seductively, "What do you mean by ’go our separate ways’? If we can’t be a couple, we don’t have to be strangers, do we?"

"You’ve helped me a lot, so of course, I won’t treat you as a stranger. If you run into any trouble in the future and I can help, feel free to come to me." Ouyang Hao paused and continued, "When the time comes, you can announce our ’breakup’. Just say you dumped me."

"Oh?" Li Yun’er raised an eyebrow, "Our irresistible Second Young Master Ouyang, never failing with women, also gets dumped? Who would believe that?"

"Do as you see fit, whichever way benefits you more."

"Aren’t you afraid I’ll deliberately smear your name?"

"Do you think I care about being smeared?"

Ouyang Hao always acted according to his own principles, indifferent to others’ opinions. If a mere scandal could affect him, with all his past reckless antics, he would have long been unable to survive in the entertainment industry.
