“That b*stard... I can't believe he'd even harm a child! We have got to make him pay for this!” Nan Xing yelled

angrily.

“Remember, we mustn't do anything rash until we have evidence!” Nan Chen reminded him.

“Who cares about evidence? He pulled a dirty trick on us, so all we have to do is return the favor! We don't need to

involve the police! Just have Qiao Zhan bring a group of men and kill that b*stard!”

Nan Xing got so agitated that he accidentally hit his wound and winced from the pain.

“Who do you think you are? Some kind of street gang leader? We're living in a lawful society here! You can't just do

as you please! Can you stop being so childish and just calm down for a second? If you go after Ouyang Duo now,

he'll just have you arrested! Or worse, he could be waiting for you just so he can get some dirt on you to threaten

our family with! He'll be able to take everything we have, and it'll be all on you!” Nan Chen said coldly.

“What can I do, then? Are we going to just let this slide?” Nan Xing shouted.

“Of course not! The Lunar New Year is just around the corner, so we will do nothing until it is over. Do not cause any

trouble and ruin the Lunar New Year celebration for Grandpa and Grandma, got it?”

“Got it...”

“Good. Erbao says she misses you. Go pay her a visit if you're able to walk,” Nan Chen said.

“All right. D*mn, I've never been screwed over like this in my entire life! It really sucks!” Nan Xing was still angry

about the incident from earlier.

“Believe me, I want nothing more than to bring a group of men and go after him with you. However, we're from the

Nan family, and we need to take responsibility for our actions. We must think about the potential consequences

before doing anything. Rushing it will only lead to us making mistakes, and that is exactly what Ouyang Duo wants.

He believes that he can have us fall for his trick, but we know better. Just bear with it for a while, okay? I promise I

will avenge you,” Nan Chen reassured him.

Their conversation was interrupted by a voice outside the door. “Where are you, Uncle Xing?”

It was Erbao. She got tired of waiting and pestered Ning Ran to bring her over.

Since Ning Ran got worried after hearing that Nan Xing was injured, she decided to come visit him as well.

Nan Xing tidied up his clothes before opening the door.

“What happened to you, Uncle Xing?” Erbao asked.

“I'm fine. I just got careless and fell down, that's all. I'm all right now.” He then took Erbao over from Ning Ran as he

continued, “How about you? Are you feeling any better?”

“Much better! I can get discharged tomorrow.”

“That's good to know. I'll take you to a nice restaurant after you get discharged!”

“But I don't really have much of an appetite at the moment. Maybe we can do that after two days or so?”

“Oh, you'll work up an appetite once you start eating. All right, it's decided! I'll take you to your favorite hotpot

restaurant tomorrow!”

“Okay! Thank you, Uncle Xing!”

Meanwhile, Ouyang Duo was casually smoking a cigar in a booth at the Orchid Club when Ouyang Qing stormed in

angrily.

“All you had to do was scare Nan Xing a little, Dad! Why would you have him thrown into the river? What if he ends

up dying?” she shouted.

Being in a bad mood himself, Ouyang Duo stood up and shouted back at her, “Watch your attitude, Qing! You've

become rather rude lately!”

Intimidated by his sudden outburst, Ouyang Qing kept quiet after that.

“There's a river beneath the window, so he wasn't at risk of dying. We need to make it look realistic or it'd defeat

the purpose of doing it in the first place. A simple scolding isn't going to suffice, okay? Besides, Nan Xing is just a

tool! You haven't actually fallen for him, have you?”

“Of course not! He may look like Nan Chen, but he is far from being anything like him!”

“We shouldn't have a problem here, then. To be honest, I'm starting to regret it a little!” Ouyang Duo said with a

sigh.

“Regret it?”

Ouyang Qing had rarely heard her father express his regret over his actions. He had always been the kind to do

whatever he wanted without feelings of regret or remorse.

“I seem to have rushed things a little. My aim was to turn the brothers against each other. However, if that doesn't

happen, then I would've ended up exposing myself instead.”

Ouyang Duo was so stressed that he choked on his cigar after taking a huge puff of it.

“Are you referring to what Zhang Sheng told Nan Xing? The part about him harming his own niece?”

“Yes. If Nan Chen figures out that I'm the one who sent those men, then it's only a matter of time before he figures

out the rest. D*mn it, I was so fixated on making Nan Xing hate Nan Chen and turning them against each other that

I got impatient! I forgot the fact that Nan Chen is no ordinary man! He is in control of everything!”

Ouyang Qing started to panic as well after hearing what her father said.

I'm planning on marrying into the Nan family, but how will I do that if both our families end up being enemies?

“What should we do now, Dad?”

“How did Nan Xing react when Zhang Sheng said that to him? I specifically instructed you to pay attention to his

expression, so please don't tell me you forgot to.”

As Ouyang Qing was paying close attention, she replied with absolute certainty, “He looked extremely shocked.”

“That means the child from the Nan family is most likely poisoned, but they're trying to keep it a secret. Heck, it's

even possible that she's already dead! Wait, no... They wouldn't be so calm if she's dead, so she's most likely

poisoned but alive. I bet they're investigating this incident right now! Thanks to that stunt I pulled, I've basically

proven to Nan Chen that I have something to do with his daughter's poisoning! D*mn it, I screwed up because of

my impatience!” Ouyang Duo exclaimed in regret, much to Ouyang Qing's dismay.

I know Nan Chen very well... He would never forgive me if he finds out that I poisoned his daughter!

Terrified by the thought of that, Ouyang Qing asked, “What should we do, Dad?”

Ouyang Duo slammed his fist on the table. “What are you so afraid of? They have no proof that we did it! If the Nan

family tries to come after me without proof, I'll just sue them all! With the way things are, we might as well just go

to war with them! I'll take you to the Nan residence and confront them about it tomorrow!”

“Wait... Are we there to confront them or apologize to them?” Ouyang Qing thought she had misheard him.

“To confront them, of course! You have gotten injured by thugs while going on a dinner date with Nan Xing, and it's

all because he failed to protect you well enough! That sounds like a perfectly valid reason for us to confront them,

don't you think?” Ouyang Duo explained.

“But... You're the one who sent those men... Are you sure we should confront them?”

“We have the right to do so as long as they don't have any proof that I sent those men. Tomorrow, we will head

over and demand an explanation from Nan Zhengde! The Nan family is already at a disadvantage due to a lack of

evidence, so our confronting them will further reinforce the idea that it has nothing to do with us. This is the only

way for us to turn the tide around!”

Ouyang Qing wasn't sure if it would work, but she could only go with her father's plan as she didn't have any better

ideas herself.

Even so, she was still extremely nervous about it and kept praying for Nan Chen to not be around when they get

there.

After all, Nan Chen's icy-cold eyes seemed to be capable of seeing through any conspiracy.
