Ouyang Duo, who had claimed to be abroad all this while, showed up out of nowhere in Flower City when Nan Chen

requested an audience with him.

He told others he had made a trip back to Flower City because of Nan Chen.

Nevertheless, no one seemed to be aware of the trip he mentioned.

Nan Chen and Ouyang Duo had a meeting scheduled at the Nanshi Corporation Headquarter.

Ouyang Duo suggested meeting at the particular venue.

Lately, Nanshi Corporation’s predicament on the project in Vietnam had gotten around amongst those in the

corporate world.

Others would definitely figure out the objective of Ouyang Duo’s visit since the session was held at Nanshi

Corporation Headquarters

Nan Chen had been waiting for the arrival of Ouyang Duo in the lobby.

He walked over and stretched his arm, initiating a handshake with Ouyang Duo once the latter arrived. “Uncle,

thank you so much for your time.”

Ouyang Duo greeted Nan Chen politely in return, “Since both families have been closely acquainted for a long time,

I will definitely try my best to resolve the hardship that has befallen the Nan family.”

Nan Chen couldn’t figure out the reason Ouyang Duo considered the failure of a particular project as the hardship

of the Nan family.

In spite of being irritated, Nan Chen remained a calm and collected front and showed Ouyang Duo the way to the

VIP lounge with a poker face.

In order to welcome Ouyang Duo, Nan Chen had instructed his subordinates to clean the lounge beforehand.

Hence, not even a speck of dust could be found on any surface.

After they caught up with one another, Nan Chen finally brought up his request and summarized the timeline of the

incident that had occurred in Vietnam.

Ouyang Duo asked, “Are you serious? How may I help you, Chen?”

“Uncle, can you please do me a favor and get in touch with the minister on my behalf? Please get him to reassess

the authenticity of the assessment report and do us justice,” Nan Chen requested.

“Hahaha!” Ouyang Duo burst into laughter.

Nan Chen looked at him in the eyes as he was confused.

“Chen, justice doesn’t exist! Frankly, justice is the tool for the wealthy and influential ones to get things done their

way!” Ouyang Duo remarked.

Nan Chen remained silent once more.

“Since such a serious incident has occurred, you should have gotten in touch with me earlier! Mr. Huang is a good

friend of mine! I’m sure he’ll do me a favor and assist you in reassessing the assessment report.”

“Thank you so much, Uncle,” Nan Chen expressed his gratitude.

“I’ll make a trip to Vietnam and visit Mr. Huang tomorrow. Do you want to tag along with me?” Ouyang Duo offered

an olive branch to Nan Chen.

“I-I...” Nan Chen stuttered because he didn’t think Ouyang Duo would bring up such a request unexpectedly.

As he couldn’t figure out the reason Ouyang Duo had brought up such a suggestion, he was at a loss for words all

of a sudden.

Usually, the party who had accepted the request from another party would proceed to fulfill the other party’s

request on their own.

Nan Chen couldn’t figure out the reason Ouyang Duo want him to tag along when he could easily get in touch with

Mr. Huang on his behalf.

Actually, if he could procure Mr. Huang’s aid without Ouyang Duo’s referral, Nan Chen would have done it without

him.

Ouyang Duo tried to persuade Nan Chen, “I know you have a lot of things on your plate, but this is equally crucial

for Nanshi Corporation and you, right? I think you should tag along with me on this trip, Chen.”

“Are you leaving tomorrow?”

“Yes. Since we’re talking about the progress of a construction site, we can’t afford to drag this any further. We need

to sort the issue out as soon as possible to prevent further losses,” Ouyang Duo explained.

“You’re right, Uncle. I’ll tag along with you to Vietnam.”

“We’ll make the trip using my private jet. I have been there a few times before. I’ll get everything sorted out,

including the clearance to enter the border.”

“Thanks, Uncle.”

They chatted for some time before wrapping up the session.

As soon as the session ended, Nan Chen made his way back to Commoner Residence and reported the outcome of

their discussion to Nan Zhengde.

His grandfather had requested him to get in touch with him as soon as he had decided on his next best course of

action.

Nan Zhengde lost himself in the process of thought because he couldn’t fathom the reason Ouyang Duo insisted on

Nan Chen’s companion for the trip.

“I don’t want you to make the trip,” Nan Zhengde asserted.

“I’m afraid that’s impossible, Grandpa,”

“We can’t possibly allow you to put yourself at stake when we have no idea what Ouyang Duo has hidden up his

sleeves. Since you’re going to make the trip using his private jet, he has the upper hand once you reach Vietnam.

I’m afraid things will get out of control.”

“I think it’s fine, Grandpa.” Nan Chen was relatively calm.

“Ouyang Duo is a cunning old fox! Throughout the years of dealing with him, we have never once got the better of

him!”

“Exactly! That’s the reason he won’t resort to anything reckless and put my wellbeing at stake.”

“What do you mean?”

“Grandpa, have you forgotten my identity as Ouyang Qing’s fiancé? Although I have never acknowledged this

identity of mine, those from the Ouyang family have misperceived me as their soon-to-be son-in-law. If he wants to

put me at stake, why would he want to propose the engagement?”

“You’re right. What exactly is he up to? Why does he want you to tag along with him to Vietnam?” Nan Zhengde

murmured to himself.

“I have no idea, but I don’t think I will encounter any sort of danger.”

“What if the proposal is merely a disguise to catch you off guard? Do you have any countermeasure for that?”

Non Chen gove it o thought ond found his grondfother’s words mode sense, but he shook his heod ond rebuked, “I

con’t think of the reoson Ouyong Duo wonts to drog me down.”

“Isn’t it obvious? You’re the moinstoy of the Non fomily. If you’re no longer oround, they con eosily chollenge the

Non fomily’s outhority. In foct, this is the sole for others to drog you down from your current position. .”

“I’m not os importont os you hove soid, Grondpo.”

“I’m not trying to be courteous or flotter you but it’s the truth. You’re the most importont figure of the Non fomily!”

Non Zhengde osserted in o serious monner.

“I think he won’t do me the fovor if I turn down his request to tog olong with him. Therefore, I hove to moke the trip

no motter whot. I’ll get Qioo Zhon to tog olong with me. I’m sure he con keep me sofe.”

Non Zhengde shook his heod ond insisted, “Thot won’t chonge the outcome of the trip either since Ouyong Duo is

the one in chorge. Moreover, you’re in o foreign ploce. If worse comes to worst, I’m ofroid Qioo Zhon con’t do

onything to turn the tobles either.”

Although it would be unnecessory for Ouyong Duo to lure Non Chen oll the woy to Vietnom just to bring upon his

misfortune, Non Zhengde’s words mode sense.

Non Chen found himself in o tight spot becouse even though there might be o possibility Ouyong Duo would expose

him to donger, he would hove to resolve the issue in Vietnom sooner or loter.

All of o sudden, Non Zhengde suggested, “I’ll hove you moke the trip, but it won’t be necessory for you to be there

physicolly.”

“Whot should I do, Grondpo?”

“We’ll get Non Xing to moke the trip on your beholf since he is o replico of you. Usuolly, on outsider won’t be oble to

tell both of you oport from one onother.”

“No! This isn’t foir for Non Xing! He’s equolly importont! I con’t possibly put his life ot stoke when I’m owore of the

possible risk!” Non Chen rejected without o second thought.

Knitting his eyebrows, Non Zhengde ossured, “I’m not indicoting thot he’s disposoble, neither do I hove ony plon to

forsoke him. He’s my beloved grondson too; I love him wholeheortedly os much os I love you.”

“Then you shouldn’t hove brought up such o suggestion!” Non Chen roised his volume to express his frustrotion.

“I meon, let’s get him to toke over your position while you stoy in the dork ond keep on eye on him. If you detect

onything odd, retreot with Non Xing ot once. This is the only vioble solution to ensure o win-win situotion,” Non

Zhengde spelled out the detoils of his plon.

Non Chen remoined silent becouse his grondfother’s suggestion wos the only feosible plon they hod to ensure the

sofety of both his brother ond him.

However, Non Chen would spend the rest of his life regretting his decision if onything were to hoppen to Non Xing

ofter he hod token over his position.

Nan Chen gave it a thought and found his grandfather’s words made sense, but he shook his head and rebuked, “I

can’t think of the reason Ouyang Duo wants to drag me down.”

“Isn’t it obvious? You’re the mainstay of the Nan family. If you’re no longer around, they can easily challenge the

Nan family’s authority. In fact, this is the sole for others to drag you down from your current position. .”

“I’m not as important as you have said, Grandpa.”

“I’m not trying to be courteous or flatter you but it’s the truth. You’re the most important figure of the Nan family!”

Nan Zhengde asserted in a serious manner.

“I think he won’t do me the favor if I turn down his request to tag along with him. Therefore, I have to make the trip

no matter what. I’ll get Qiao Zhan to tag along with me. I’m sure he can keep me safe.”

Nan Zhengde shook his head and insisted, “That won’t change the outcome of the trip either since Ouyang Duo is

the one in charge. Moreover, you’re in a foreign place. If worse comes to worst, I’m afraid Qiao Zhan can’t do

anything to turn the tables either.”

Although it would be unnecessary for Ouyang Duo to lure Nan Chen all the way to Vietnam just to bring upon his

misfortune, Nan Zhengde’s words made sense.

Nan Chen found himself in a tight spot because even though there might be a possibility Ouyang Duo would expose

him to danger, he would have to resolve the issue in Vietnam sooner or later.

All of a sudden, Nan Zhengde suggested, “I’ll have you make the trip, but it won’t be necessary for you to be there

physically.”

“What should I do, Grandpa?”

“We’ll get Nan Xing to make the trip on your behalf since he is a replica of you. Usually, an outsider won’t be able to

tell both of you apart from one another.”

“No! This isn’t fair for Nan Xing! He’s equally important! I can’t possibly put his life at stake when I’m aware of the

possible risk!” Nan Chen rejected without a second thought.

Knitting his eyebrows, Nan Zhengde assured, “I’m not indicating that he’s disposable, neither do I have any plan to

forsake him. He’s my beloved grandson too; I love him wholeheartedly as much as I love you.”

“Then you shouldn’t have brought up such a suggestion!” Nan Chen raised his volume to express his frustration.

“I mean, let’s get him to take over your position while you stay in the dark and keep an eye on him. If you detect

anything odd, retreat with Nan Xing at once. This is the only viable solution to ensure a win-win situation,” Nan

Zhengde spelled out the details of his plan.

Nan Chen remained silent because his grandfather’s suggestion was the only feasible plan they had to ensure the

safety of both his brother and him.

However, Nan Chen would spend the rest of his life regretting his decision if anything were to happen to Nan Xing

after he had taken over his position.
