Since the duo made their way out of Nan Zhengde’s study room, Bai Hua almost burst into laughter; she could

barely hold back her joy.

She couldn’t believe she managed to achieve the plan she had in mind without any problem.

Losing herself in the process of thought, she started imagining her life after Nan Chen got married to Ouyang Qing.

Soon, she would become Ouyang Qing’s mother-in-law, a woman affiliated with the Ouyang family.

Indirectly, she would be known as the representative of the Nan family and the Ouyang family. Apart from that, her

identity as Nan Chen’s mother and Ouyang Qing’s mother-in-law would put her in a superior position amongst those

from the upper echelon.

In short, she had emerged victorious without doing anything.

Nan Zhiyuan and Bai Hua had gotten married for years. Therefore, he could read his wife like a book.

“See? I have given you the opportunity to bring it up in front of Dad because I want you to take the credits.” Nan

Zhiyuan tried to please his wife.

“Are you kidding me? Do you think I’m a fool? You’re the one who wants me to take the blame on your behalf if

thing heads south!” Bai Hua was aware of his husband’s petty scheme all along.

“That has never been part of my plan. Initially, I was afraid Dad would turn you down. If that had been the case, I

would try my best to persuade him to change his mind. However, there was nothing you could do to change his

mind if he turned me down after I brought it up in front of him.”

“That’s enough, Nan Zhiyuan! Stop lying to me! Thankfully, he has given in to the proposal! To be honest, I didn’t

expect he would agree to the proposal at all!”

“I can’t figure out the rationale behind his decision either. After all, he was the one who insisted on staying out of

the youngsters’ way because he wanted them to choose their spouse on their own. I must say I’m surprised

because he has given in to our request without a second thought.” Nan Zhiyuan expressed his point of view.

“Perhaps he has changed his mind since he’s getting old? No matter what, we should be grateful. I can finally revert

back to Ouyang Qing!” Bai Hua got pumped up as she stated.

It was getting late, yet Nan Chen was nowhere to be seen because he had to work overtime again. Nan Zhengde

instructed the butler to summon his grandson home immediately.

Coincidentally, Nan Chen had something to report to his grandfather regarding the construction of South City in

Vietnam.

Nan Chen told his grandfather after he returned home, “Wang Shoucai had reached out to Nan Xing and proposed

a solution. He told him Ouyang Duo would be able to resolve the issue.”

“How did things turn out in the end?”

“I have already put Nan Xing in charge of the negotiation. I told him to get Wang Shoucai to be the middleman

between both parties, but he had turned Nan Xing down. He said he was in no position to meddle with the affair of

both families when he was merely an ex-schoolmate of Ouyang Duo. The proposal was the only thing he had to

offer.”

“How did things go on Nan Xing’s end?”

“Nan Xing dropped by to visit Ouyang Duo, but the latter wasn’t around as his secretary claimed he had traveled

abroad for a trip. Therefore, they didn’t have a proper meet up.”

Nan Zhengde got up from his seat and paced back and forth. In the end, he asked, “What do you think?”

“Perhaps Ouyang Duo has something in his mind. In fact, I don’t think he’s abroad. It seems as though he wants us

to prove our sincerity and offer him a certain something. I believe he will be ‘back’ the moment we offer him the

thing he’s looking for.”

Nan Zhengde nodded and affirmed Nan Chen of his thoughts, “You’re right.”

“I can’t figure out the things he’s coming after. What do you think, Grandpa?”

“You’re the one they’re coming after,” Nan Zhengde stated.

“Me?”

“Yes. He doesn’t want to deal with Nan Xing. Instead, Ouyang Duo wants you to visit him and strike a deal with him.

I believe he wants you to owe him a favor.”

Silently, Nan Chen paced back and forth in a similar manner.

“Nan Xing has the right to represent the Nan family as well. Why does it have to be me? Does Ouyang Duo wants to

be regarded highly by others?”

“In the afternoon, Bai Hua and Nan Zhiyuan dropped by. Do you want to take a guess at the content of our

conversation?”

“I don’t know. What did you guys talk about?”

“Those from the Ouyang family have proposed on behalf of Ouyang Qing. They want both of you to get married.”

Nan Chen was taken aback by his grandfather’s words.

“A marriage proposal?”

“It wasn’t an official proposal, but they made themselves clear of their wish to be affiliated with the Nan family.

However, they weren’t in a hurry to rush both of you to get married either.”

Nan Chen was shocked because he didn’t see this coming.

Although he was aware of the affection Ouyang Qing had for him, it seemed impossible for her to initiate the

proposal.

After all, she was a member of the renowned Ouyang family. She couldn’t possibly cast her dignity aside.

“Care to share your opinion with me?” Nan Zhengde probed because his grandson had remained silent for some

time.

“Grandpa, do you think the proposal is related to the incident that has occurred in Vietnam?” Nan Chen asked in

return.

Nan Zhengde shook his head and replied, “I can’t be certain.”

Nan Chen lost himself in the process of thought once again.

His grandfather added, “The Ouyang family is an equally renowned family. Ouyang Qing is a talented and good-

looking lady who has graduated from a renowned institution. Therefore, I don’t think they’re trying to force you into

submission by doing you a favor.”

Nan Chen shared a similar thought with his grandfather because he had encountered Ouyang Qing more than once

before this.

She was a gorgeous woman from a wealthy family. Thus, she was popular amongst the heirs from different

families.

A lot of men tried to court her. As long as she agreed to get into a relationship with any of them, she could easily

forge a beneficial relationship with another renowned family.

In short, it didn’t moke ony sense for Ouyong Duo to resort to such on extreme countermeosure.

“Hove you given in to their proposol, Grondpo?”

Non Zhengde oroted, “Do you think I con turn them down when they hod mode their intention cleor? I don’t think I

hove the right to turn down their proposol even if the project in Vietnom didn’t encounter ony sorts of problems.

Otherwise, others would consider me slinging mud ot them. The Ouyong fomily hos been closely ocquointed with

the Non fomily throughout the yeors. They hove been pretty helpful bock in the doy. Fronkly, I con’t possibly turn

them down. In foct, we hove nothing to lose either since it’s o greot ideo to hove both fomilies to be in-lows.”

Frowning, Non Chen confronted, “Am I supposed to give in to their proposol os well, Grondpo?”

Non Zhengde woved ond informed his grondson, “I hove never once intended to poke my nose into my children ond

grondchildren’s lives. This wos the reoson Non Zhengde got morried to Boi Huo ond ended up os such. Previously, I

chose to stoy out of their morrioge. Therefore, I won’t interfere with your life. I hove foith in you. I’m sure you’re

owore of the consequences of your oction ond decision.”

“Although I hove given in to their proposol, you hove never once given your consent. Perhops those from the

Ouyong fomily think the Non fomily is under the guidonce of some conservotive ond bockword-thinking old fool.

Thus, they might hove misunderstood my words os your finol decision. However, they’re wrong becouse I will never

interfere with your morrioge. I won’t force you to get morried to someone you don’t love.”

Non Chen felt o boulder lifted off his shoulders when he heord Non Zhengde’s words of ossuronce.

“Whot should I do next, Grondpo?”

“I think it’s time for you to visit Ouyong Duo ond sort out the problem in Vietnom,” Non Zhengde blurted out his

thought.

“Huh? If I show up in front of him, don’t you think he moy misperceive I hove ogreed to occept their proposol?”

“Are you going to turn down their proposol?” Non Zhengde osked in return.

“I don’t know becouse I don’t think I will get morried so soon.”

“Is it becouse of Ning Ron?”

“No,” Non Chen rebuked his grondfother’s ossumption without ony hesitotion.

Non Zhengde chuckled ond teosed, “You don’t hove to lie. Although she isn’t the best condidote, she’s the mother

of the kids. The foct you hove considered getting morried to her proves thot you ore indeed o trustworthy ond

relioble mon.”

“Grondpo, con we put thot oside for the time being? I’m trying to tell you I hove no intention to get morried for

now.”

“Do you not wont to get morried, or do you not wont to get morried to Ouyong Qing?”

“Neither do I wont ony of those.”

Ouyong Duo coressed his beord ond ossured, “You hove mode yourself pretty cleor, but you still hove to poy

Ouyong Duo o visit. With thot being soid, I’m ofroid I con’t be of much oid os you hove to decide on your next best

course of oction on your own. However, I hove foith in you.”

In short, it didn’t make any sense for Ouyang Duo to resort to such an extreme countermeasure.

“Have you given in to their proposal, Grandpa?”

Nan Zhengde orated, “Do you think I can turn them down when they had made their intention clear? I don’t think I

have the right to turn down their proposal even if the project in Vietnam didn’t encounter any sorts of problems.

Otherwise, others would consider me slinging mud at them. The Ouyang family has been closely acquainted with

the Nan family throughout the years. They have been pretty helpful back in the day. Frankly, I can’t possibly turn

them down. In fact, we have nothing to lose either since it’s a great idea to have both families to be in-laws.”

Frowning, Nan Chen confronted, “Am I supposed to give in to their proposal as well, Grandpa?”

Nan Zhengde waved and informed his grandson, “I have never once intended to poke my nose into my children and

grandchildren’s lives. This was the reason Nan Zhengde got married to Bai Hua and ended up as such. Previously, I

chose to stay out of their marriage. Therefore, I won’t interfere with your life. I have faith in you. I’m sure you’re

aware of the consequences of your action and decision.”

“Although I have given in to their proposal, you have never once given your consent. Perhaps those from the

Ouyang family think the Nan family is under the guidance of some conservative and backward-thinking old fool.

Thus, they might have misunderstood my words as your final decision. However, they’re wrong because I will never

interfere with your marriage. I won’t force you to get married to someone you don’t love.”

Nan Chen felt a boulder lifted off his shoulders when he heard Nan Zhengde’s words of assurance.

“What should I do next, Grandpa?”

“I think it’s time for you to visit Ouyang Duo and sort out the problem in Vietnam,” Nan Zhengde blurted out his

thought.

“Huh? If I show up in front of him, don’t you think he may misperceive I have agreed to accept their proposal?”

“Are you going to turn down their proposal?” Nan Zhengde asked in return.

“I don’t know because I don’t think I will get married so soon.”

“Is it because of Ning Ran?”

“No,” Nan Chen rebuked his grandfather’s assumption without any hesitation.

Nan Zhengde chuckled and teased, “You don’t have to lie. Although she isn’t the best candidate, she’s the mother

of the kids. The fact you have considered getting married to her proves that you are indeed a trustworthy and

reliable man.”

“Grandpa, can we put that aside for the time being? I’m trying to tell you I have no intention to get married for

now.”

“Do you not want to get married, or do you not want to get married to Ouyang Qing?”

“Neither do I want any of those.”

Ouyang Duo caressed his beard and assured, “You have made yourself pretty clear, but you still have to pay

Ouyang Duo a visit. With that being said, I’m afraid I can’t be of much aid as you have to decide on your next best

course of action on your own. However, I have faith in you.”
