Chapter 1521: Chapter 321: The Nan Family’s Return (Ten-Thousand-Word Update) (Part 2)
Old Master Nan glared with his old eyes, forcing back his tears, "You brat, how can you still be blowing snot bubbles at your age, and dare to say I cry ugly? Once you’re healed, you start acting up again, don’t you? Are you asking for a beating again?!"
Nan Tian rubbed her nose red from crying and pouted, "Considering that you got hurt today, I won’t stoop to your level! Hmph!"
Watching the grandfather and granddaughter resu their usual quirky interaction, An Yiqing found it amusing. She stepped forward, poured a glass of water, and handed it to Old Master Nan, motioning for Nan Tian to help the old man sit up.
"Old Master, why did Nan Yang suddenly poison you? What exactly happened?" An Yiqing asked.
Old Master Nan took the glass, giving An Yiqing a grateful look, "Nan Yang discovered I was faking my illness!
Nan Yang discovered it?
An Yiqing was a bit surprised; given her dical arts, it would be impossible to discover unless the person’s dical skills surpassed hers. She had investigated Nan Yang, and although he had learned basic dical arts, he absolutely couldn’t detect Old Master Nan’s condition.
"Old Master, did Nan Yang discover it on his own?" An Yiqing asked.
"No, no, it must have been Liu Bai who told him." Old Master Nan sighed. Since that incident at Nan Tian’s last birthday party when Nan Yang shielded him from bullets, he was very touched. After all, he’s his biological grandson, and despite grudges over incidents from over a decade ago, blood is thicker than water, right? During that period, Old Master Nan truly blad himself for not taking better care of Nan Yang, until one day he inadvertently overheard the servants gossiping.
The servants said that the biggest beneficiary of the attack at the last birthday party was Nan Yang.
Those servants were just gossiping, but sotis outsiders can see things more clearly. As soone involved, Old Master Nan felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over him, chilling him to the bone.
After returning to his room, the more Old Master Nan thought about it, the more it seed off, the more everything that happened on the day of the birthday party seed too coincidental. To find out the truth and give Nan Yang a fair chance, Old Master Nan instructed the butler to secretly start investigating Nan Yang’s past.
Eventually, he found out that Nan Yang once studied abroad in Country Jin and had a close relationship with soone nad Xu Fei. And that Xu Fei is now working at the headquarters of the Nan Family Company. At the ti, Old Master Nan didn’t pay much mind to it, but when he saw a photo of Xu Fei with Nan Yang, he completely lost his composure.
He had spent a lifeti reading people, and although Liu Bai’s upper face was masked at the ti, Old Master Nan could still tell that this Xu Fei was Liu Bai!
If Xu Fei is Liu Bai, then...
Upon thinking it through, Old Master Nan was chilled with his own hypothesis. He hurriedly hid these photos in a secret compartnt within his notebook, planning to investigate further later. However, little did he know that all his movents had already been discovered by Nan Yang, who took advantage of his inattention to poison him, fully revealing his wolfish intentions.
Reflecting on recent events, Old Master Nan let out a deep sigh. For a lifeti of cunning, he was ultimately played by his own grandson.
"Old Master, you need not bla yourself. Nan Yang’s ntal state cannot be comprehended with a normal person’s logic — even I was fooled by him."
An Yiqing particularly understood Old Master Nan, as she too had learned a lesson when it ca to Nan Yang.
"Alas! If he were only targeting
or his incompetent father, I’d accept it. But Nan Tian did nothing wrong, yet Nan Yang treated her like that. Was all this nurturing just pretense over the years?" Old Master Nan’s old eyes welled with tears. No one can truly understand how it feels to be poisoned by one’s own grandson.
An Yiqing understood the pain in Old Master Nan’s heart, yet it was also beyond redy. Who told Old Master Nan to be such a philanderer in his youth, fathering so many sons and daughters, and consequently so many grandchildren? A large tree divides into branches — that’s an eternal truth.
Clearly, Nan Tian thought so as well. She rolled her eyes rcilessly, giving Old Master Nan an irritated glance.
"Old man, what are you crying for? Isn’t all this ss a result of your own doing back when you were young? If you’d had one wife, one child, where would all this trouble co from? When the upper beam is not straight, the lower beams are crooked, hmph!"
