Refusing and contradicting are synonym words. If you choice 'Refusing' then you have to consider 'contradicting' too. The best answer is 'ordering'.

You just have to take it inversely as you are ordered to do something and you eventually obeyed. Simple.

Opposite of obey must be disobey. So refusing should be correct. But in sense of analogy order is correct for obeying.

Refusing is the right option as this is the only word which sounds diffrent meaning amongst all four words.

I'm quite sure it's refusing. Antonym of obey is disobey which means refuse not order.

I think we need to find the exact opposite of the word not negative of the word.
For example, opposite of pull will be a push.
And negative of pull is on pull.
I think every body is getting confused in opposite and negative.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
