The first thing that Nan Chen saw upon entering the clubhouse's VIP room was a woman who was dressed to the
nines.
The woman stood up immediately when she saw him.
A glimmer instantly flashed past her eyes, but soon faded away.
Nan Chen glanced at her and sat down.
After bringing in a glass of water, the waiter turned and left, closing the door behind him.
The atmosphere was awkward as silence ensued in the room.
“Are you the one who invite me here?” Ding Fei asked.
Nan Chen remained silent.
“It was me,” Jiang Zhe hurriedly answered.
“You? What right do you have to do so? Who are you?” Ding Fei raised her voice.
“I'm Jiang Zhe. You said that I don't have any right to invite you, but aren't you here anyway?” Jiang Zhe smiled.
Ding Fei was deeply offended by his statements and was at a loss for refutes.
“Shut your mouth!” she lectured while pointing her finger at Jiang Zhe, her embarrassment turned into anger.
“Sure.”
Jiang Zhe actually stopped talking after that. He remained silent and stood there with his hands behind his back.
With Jiang Zhe keeping his mouth shut and Nan Chen remaining unspeaking, the room became silent again.
“You're the one who invited me here, yet you're not saying a word. What do you want?” Ding Fei's gaze fell on Nan
Chen.
However, Nan Chen simply drank his water silently as though he did not hear her words.
Seeing that, Ding Fei directed her anger toward Jiang Zhe. “Didn't you say you're the one who invited me here? Did
you ask me to come here to drink a glass of water with you?”
Jiang Zhe pointed at his mouth to imply that he could not speak. After all, Ding Fei was the one who asked him to
shut his mouth.
“You're pretending to be mute now, huh? What the hell do you want me? I'm leaving if there's nothing else!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDing Fei stood up and put on an act of leaving.
She believed that they would stop her if she made a scene like this. However, that did not happen.
Ding Fei sat down once more upon realizing that her method was not effective. “Are you going to speak or not? I
know what you guys are here for. You're here to beg me to spare that b*tch, am I right?”
Coldness filled Nan Chen's eyes.
Ding Fei will ramble out everything on her own. After all, she looks like the type of person that couldn't restrain
herself from speaking out. This can save me time.
Both Nan Chen and Jiang Zhe remained silent.
“It's futile even if you guys beg me. I won't let her off. I want her to die!” Ding Fei stated with hatred in her voice.
“So, you're confessing that you were the one who attacked Ms. Ning then?” Jiang Zhe questioned abruptly.
Ding Fei's agitation cooled a little after hearing Jiang Zhe's sentence. It was only then that she realized she had
made a slip of the tongue.
I can't believe I just said something I shouldn't have in the spur of the moment. I really shouldn't have said that
since I haven't ended Ning Ran yet.
“I have no idea what you're talking about.” Ding Fei chuckled coldly.
“Didn't you say you want someone to die just now? Who are you talking about?” Jiang Zhe questioned.
“Why should I tell you?” Ding Fei retorted.
“There are only three of us in the room. You can tell my boss if you don't want to tell me. That's fine too. Go on.”
Jiang Zhe gestured for her to speak.
Nan Chen turned his cold gaze toward Ding Fei.
Ding Fei met his gaze and instinctively avoided it, for she felt guilty.
It's hard not to feel guilty under his overwhelming aura.
“I only said that in the spur of the moment. I didn't kill anyone. That's against the law, and I don't do things that are
against the law.” Ding Fei changed her words.
Nan Chen threw Jiang Zhe a glance.
“Ms. Ding, no matter where you come from or what your purpose is, please keep a few things in mind. Firstly, don't
ever do anything to hurt Ms. Ning and those around her. Secondly, keep the first point in mind. Thirdly, you will pay
a painful price if you can't control yourself,” Jiang Zhe said.
“Hahaha! Is this a threat?” Ding Fei chuckled.
“It's not. I'm merely warning you of the consequences in advance. You can choose not to listen to my advice,” Jiang
Zhe explained.
Nan Chen was quite pleased with how Jiang Zhe handled the situation. I'm always satisfied with how Jiang Zhe does
things. He's not like that slow-witted Qiao Zhan, who is always confused when I want him to say something.
Nan Chen finished his glass of water just as Jiang Zhe finished speaking. The former then stood up and started
walking out.
It seemed as though he was really only there for a glass of water, for he was leaving upon finishing his drink.
“Huh? You asked me to come here, but you're leaving without saying anything?” Although Ding Fei was dissatisfied,
she did not dare to stop him.
“It was me who asked you to come here. Didn't you hear me clearly? It was me. I asked you here. Can you hear me
clearly now?”
After saying that, Jiang Zhe followed Nan Chen out.
In response, Ding Fei flew into a fit of rage. She waved her hand and smashed another set of glass.
Of course, she had to pay the price for shattering the glasses. There was no getting around that. After all, those
glasses were custom-made and expensive.
Nan Chen was quiet after getting into the backseat of the car.
“How was it, Mr. Chen?” Jiang Zhe could not help but ask.
“I've seen her before.” Nan Chen came to a conclusion.
“Really? Who is she?”
“I don't know,” Nan Chen replied.
Jiang Zhe felt confused. Since Sir Chen has a photographic memory of people, he should be able to say where he
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmet them, even if he couldn't remember their names. However, he doesn't seem confident with his answer today.
Sir Chen seems to think he has seen that woman before, but he doesn't know who she is.
“Mr. Chen, your memory has always been good. But you don't remember where you have seen her?” Jiang Zhe
asked.
“I don't remember her. I have absolutely no recollection of seeing her face. However, I feel like I have seen her
eyes, and the look she gave me tells me that she has seen me before. In fact, our paths must have crossed
multiple times,” Nan Chen stated.
He didn't mention that in addition to her eyes, Ding Fei's scent also felt familiar to him.
At the very least, he reckoned he had come across her more than once.
Nan Chen was born with an extremely keen sense of smell. As such, he placed more faith in his unfathomable
sense of smell, and not his photographic memory.
However, this was his secret, and he had never told anyone about this.
She smelled familiar the moment I entered the room earlier. There was the smell of cosmetics and other scents in
addition to her perfume. Everyone has certain tastes that won't change in life, such as their favorite perfume,
cosmetics, or shampoo. These things have distinct scents. Those scents combine to become a single, exclusive
smell, just like an identity card. This scent won't change. It might change slightly occasionally but it will remain
unchanged for the most part, except in the case of advanced age, a complete change in habits and living
conditions, and a serious decline in health.
The scent that Nan Chen got a whiff of was not special. He did not like it, but he was certain he had come across it.
Hence, I'm assuming I know this person, but I haven't seen her before. This is extremely unusual. Logically, I
wouldn't have forgotten her face if I remembered her scent. However, I don't have any impression of her.
Something like this has never happened before.
“Mr. Chen, what do we do next?” Jiang Zhe inquired.
“Protect Ning Ran well,” Nan Chen instructed.
“Understood.”
