Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Old Master Nan endured the pain and gave up his authentic paintings. After saying that, he looked like he would have to use an oxygen mask the next second.
However, Nan Zhe did not appreciate it. He was not a refined man, so he never had a thing for paintings and antiques.
“Why would I want that? Where should I hang it when I get back? In the toilet?”
‘…” Old Master Nan choked. On one hand, he was angry at him for insulting his precious paintings, but on the other hand, he felt that he had escaped a calamity.
“Then what do you want? I haven’t found anything good recently. You crushed one of the walnuts I just got my hands on the last time. I don’t have anything new.”
Hearing this, Nan Zhe frowned. He felt that Old Master Nan was a little strange. “Who cares about that lousy walnut? There’s nothing I want. ”
He had already moved everything he wanted to his house eons ago. He would not have left them here until now.
“If you don’t want the antiques and other stuff in your room, just say so. Bring the three of them up to split the stuff. Why are you asking me alone to take that stupid stuff anyway?”
Facing Old Master Nan’s death stare, the three people sitting opposite them waved their hands repeatedly.
They did not dare to act rashly.
Old Master Nan would kill them!
Seeing their obedient expressions, Old Master Nan retracted his gaze in satisfaction and asked Nan Zhe with a smile, “Then why are you sitting here early in the morning? Why so early? Don’t you want to sleep in?”
“There’s nothing much to do during the day. The birthday banquet will only start at night. You’ve been so busy at the company these few days. You should rest more. ”
As expected, Nan Zhe’s attitude changed faster than the speed of flipping a book. Fortunately, the three primary school students sitting across from them were already used to it.
Among the four grandchildren, Nan Zhe was undoubtedly the one at the top of the food chain. Similar to the order of their ages, the younger they were, the less they were favored.
The second and third grandchildren usually had a higher status in the old master’s heart than Nan Ge, and the old master would be more biased toward the two of them. However, as long as Nan Zhe was present, or rather, other than Nan Zhe, all living beings were equal and could not enter the old master’s eyes.
However, their relationship with Nan Ge was not that bad.
When they were young, they were all insensible. They always heard Old Master Nan and Old Madam Nan say that Nan Ge was a late starter at talking or mentally disabled. After hearing it for a long time, the children took it seriously, so they did not know better and mentioned it in front of Nan Ge.
Because of these things, their relationship was still considered stiff at the time, but it improved after that. Basically, when they grew up, the two of them did not say anything nasty to Nan Ge.
On one hand, it was all thanks to Nan Zhe. On the other hand, they were all adults and knew what to say and what not to say. When it came to jokes, it was only appropriate if the other party found it funny. Adults knew this inside.
It was not that awkward for them to meet Nan Ge now. They were not particularly close, but they were still cousins. There was actually no malice between them. After all, they were family.
“I didn’t sleep at night. I’m not sleepy yet. I’ll go up later to catch up on my sleep.”
“Insomnia?” When the old man heard that, he was shocked! “Is the new mattress uncomfortable to sleep on? Sigh. I told your grandmother that the mattress can’t be changed, but she insisted on changing it. I don’t know which idiot brainwashed her again. I knew that the previous one was comfortable. I don’t know what the old woman is thinking.”
Nan Zhe calmly changed the newspaper. “It has nothing to do with the mattress. I’m just not sleepy.”
“How could you not be sleepy last night? Did you drink too much coffee at night? No, I didn’t see you drink any.”
Old Master Nan did not drink that sort of thing, but they always had it prepared at the old residence because Nan Zhe liked it, including some foreign wine and drinks.
In short, anything that did not seem to belong to Old Master Nan or Old Madam Nan basically belonged to Nan Zhe because no one else had such treatment.
“Stop worrying. When I’m tired, I’ll go to bed.” Nan Zhe found him naggy. “If you don’t want to read the newspaper, go upstairs. It’s indeed a little noisy here.”
After receiving an amnesty, Old Master Nan quickly agreed and slipped away without lingering.
In the morning, everyone from the Nan family was present and the dining
room was full.
The atmosphere was gloomy and silent.
It was not because Old Master Nan had the habit of not talking while eating, but mainly because everyone’s attention was on Nan Zhe.
After this person sat down, he was like a waiter. One moment, he took care of Old Master Nan and Old Madam Nan, and the next moment, he served dishes to Mr. Nan and Mrs. Nan. Even his uncles and aunties, who were always scolded by him in the past, equally got to enjoy this special service. There were fried eggs in each of their bowls.
The two aunties looked suspicious and kept thinking about what they had done wrong recently. Why had they provoked this young master again?
She looked at her uncles, who usually did not smile. At this moment, they were holding the fried eggs. They were so touched that they almost cried. They kept saying, “Zhe has really grown up.”
Today, everyone in the Nan family could feel that Nan Zhe was abnormal, but no one knew why.
Hence, on this day, everyone was trembling with fear. They kept feeling that Nan Zhe had something waiting for them.
They were afraid that Nan Zhe would cause trouble.
In the evening, the banquet hall of Yuanjiang Manor was extremely lively.
After Nan Ge received the call, she hurriedly greeted Mrs. Nan and jogged out to bring Shen Yanqing inside.
In the main hall on the first floor.
Assistant Yuan and Miaomiao followed Shen Yanqing to the banquet.
The two of them carried a lot of things and followed Shen Yanqing.
While Nan Ge was coming down, Shen Yanqing tilted his head and looked at the mirror in the main hall. He sized himself up from head to toe.
The last time Nan Ge went to his house as a guest, she was also nervous. Today, the roles had changed, and it was his turn.
However, when he was nervous, his expression was not as obvious as Nan Gel s. After all, he had seen many storms over the years.
Calm down.
He pursed his lips feeling his anxiety was undetectable.
He was extremely normal.
This was for the best.
Until Assistant Yuan comforted him softly, “President Shen, don’t be nervous.”
Shen Yanqing was stunned and looked at him in surprise. “How could you tell that I was nervous?”
Assistant Yuan pointed at his forehead. “You’re sweating.”
“Hey, President Shen, you’ve seen the world. You can’t be afraid.” This was the first time Miaomiao had seen Shen Yanqing like this. She could not help but tease him.
Assistant Yuan sighed. “How can it be compared to today? Rumor has it that Old Master Nan and Old Madam Nan are hard to talk to. They rarely treat others nicely. President Shen really has a tough battle to fight today.”
The two elders of the Nan family were publicly acknowledged as very difficult and hard to handle in Jiang City.
Thinking about it carefully, it made sense.
She sighed. “Sigh. President Shen, the two of us are still single and have no experience in this area. We can’t help much today.”
Assistant Yuan said, “Of course, if you’re not afraid that you won’t be able to marry Miss Nan Ge in the future, Miaomiao and I can help you retaliate when you get scolded later.”
Miaomiao echoed, “We still have this bit of combat power.”
Shen Yanqing still maintained a polite smile. “Thank you, but I really shouldn’t have brought the two of you out today.”
Assistant Yuan and Miaomiao were speechless..
