She didn’t pretentiously say it was a piece of cake because that would not only be fake but also disrespectful to Yin Nan. The level of gratitude they showed her indicated how important Yin Nan’s identity was, how crucial life was.
To say it’s a re piece of cake, isn’t that belittling them?
How could soone’s life be reduced to sothing as trivial as a piece of cake?
Moreover, having the Yin Family owe her a promise was really necessary for Nan Fei. Even if she didn’t need it now, who knew about the future? What if she encountered an unsolvable problem later on, and it ca in handy!
Of course, she hoped she would never need to use it.
"Is Bei Jiang alright?" Even though Nan Fei already knew, seeing such a horrific car accident still had her heart in knots. She couldn’t rest assured and asked again, "If sothing happened, don’t hide it from . I can handle it."
The thing she feared most was people thinking it was for her own good and hiding problems from her.
"He’s fine; he’s at the military headquarters having a war of words with soone," Yin Nan teased. "I’ve never seen him so talkative before. His words are so sharp, deadly, really. Heard he once caused a senior officer to faint from high blood pressure. So people think he acts too ruthlessly, his personality is flamboyant and out of control, so they wanted to take advantage of this situation to give him a hard lesson."
Ha! What wishful thinking.
Huo Kewei quickly said, "Auntie, you’re so amazing, you’re like our backbone now. If sothing happens, you’d be the first to know." Her reaction and keen awareness on the scene today were astonishing.
Now Huo Kewei sowhat understood why his uncle always refused to let him participate in the investigation. If today’s car accident were to happen to him, who knew what the outco would be.
"Sit, Auntie, please sit." Huo Kewei flatteringly helped Nan Fei sit on another single sofa, "What would you like to drink? I’ll get it for you."
Nan Fei was amused by his antics, "Just so plain water."
"Okay." There was plain water in the lounge, no need to go out, Huo Kewei turned around to pour water, completely ignoring Fu Xinwu.
Fu Xinwu was so frustrated she almost stomped her feet, but with Yin Nan as the elder present, she didn’t make a scene. Instead, she gave Huo Kewei a fierce look and sat obediently next to Nan Fei, pretending to be invisible and lowering her presence.
Anyway, she was just curious, ca to listen in, no way her uncle would let her be part of it. Fu Xinwu was self-aware; when it was ti to argue, she never hesitated, but when it was ti to listen and behave, she never stirred trouble either.
"Mr. Yin, may I ask if the mastermind has been found?" Nan Fei asked politely, holding a glass, looking at Yin Nan.
Nan Fei, Huo Kewei, and the three of them running into the hurriedly arriving Yin Nan at the scene was sowhat expected because Huo Kewei’s people had been persistently following up on the investigation, and they notified them as soon as sothing happened.
And just as they left the hospital, Bei Jiang’s call ca in, telling them not to worry before he quickly hung up.
After asking, Nan Fei felt her attitude might have been a bit abrupt, so she glanced at Huo Kewei, who, noticing her look, imdiately stood up straight: "Uncle Yin, I know you’ve been investigating my father’s death; I’ve always known. And Auntie has always been the Special Action Departnt’s target, we know there must be a connection between the two. Even if you don’t tell us now, we will soon find out."
