Chapter 691: Chapter 693: Passing Out
Chu Ge sat there, not answering Nangong Man Sha’s words directly, but instead lifted his gaze and glanced at her lightly,
Mysteriously, Nangong Man Sha felt that Chu Ge’s eyes contained a certain profound significance.
But Nangong Man Sha had no ti now to dwell on it, she hurried to Old Master Nangong’s side and asked anxiously, "Grandfather, how are you feeling now? How co you look so pale?"
Among these children, Old Master Nangong’s favorite was Nangong Man Sha, seeing the anxious look on Nangong Man Sha’s face, he could not help but pat her hand, forcing a slight smile, he reassured Nangong Man Sha, "Don’t worry, grandfather is fine. With Mr. Chu here, nothing will go wrong with ."
His tone was extrely weak.
Nangong Man Sha’s nose tingled with emotion; grandfather was always like this, even if his body could no longer bear it, he still clenched his teeth, not wanting his younger generations to worry.
But she could tell from Old Master Nangong’s face that he was persistently enduring.
"Mr. Chu, is there really no way?" She had full confidence in Chu Ge’s dical skills, yet now even Chu Ge was at a loss, to be honest, she had so disbelief.
Chu Ge raised his eyes and gave her a deep look, then gently shook his head, his lips remained slightly pursed, he had not spoken a word since they entered.
Nangong Man Sha had been in the Upper-class society for so long, she had seen all types of n, and she could understand their intentions from just a look.
But the look in Chu Ge’s eyes was unlike other n; it revealed no desire, no yearning, not even greed or attachnt.
This gave Nangong Man Sha a certain degree of confusion in her heart, she always felt as if Chu Ge was hiding sothing from her.
Just as she wanted to think deeper, Old Master Nangong spoke again.
He lifted his gaze to look at the other three grandsons in front of him; these three were all boys, among whom Nangong Yunhai was the one that gave him the least worry.
Nangong Yunrao was irresponsible and arrogant, making it hard for him to achieve greatness, whereas Nangong Yunpeng, although quite good in company managent, and even sharing the sa mother as Nangong Yunrao, had a personality quite distinct from Nangong Yunrao - too soft-hearted, always lacking sothing in terms of human relations.
Old Master Nangong swept his gaze over the few of them, his eyes containing a bit of assessnt, finally, his gaze landed on Nangong Yunrao.
Nangong Yunrao’s heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously glanced at Chu Ge, rembering the previous incident at the Gambling Stone Field where he lost his share of stakes to Yuwen Kangli, which the Old Master yet knew nothing about, and in the end, this share fell into Chu Ge’s hands, if he took this opportunity to tell the grandfather...
As Nangong Yunrao was thinking, he heard Old Master Nangong’s scolding voice say: "Yun Ruo, is there sothing you are hiding from ?"
As Nangong Yunrao had thought, Old Master Nangong wouldn’t have called these younger generations here for no reason, so Chu Ge thought of the Nangong Family’s shares he had won back from Yuwen Kangli, he originally planned to return these shares to Old Master Nangong intact.
However, Old Master Nangong felt that the shares were won over by Chu Ge’s own abilities, he shouldn’t take them back.
But this also gave Old Master Nangong a good opportunity to confront these younger generations.
With a guilty conscience, Nangong Yunrao’s eyes dodged about, daring not to et Old Master’s gaze, "Grandfather, I’m not hiding anything from you, have you heard sothing?"
As he spoke, he darted a glance in Chu Ge’s direction. The emotion hidden in that look was more than words could describe, and he suspected that Chu Ge must have said sothing to his grandfather to induce the old man to summon all the children, despite his illness, for a scolding.
This Chu Ge was clearly a troublemaker!
Nangong Yunrao thought, and the emotions in his heart were revealed. He glared at Chu Ge, filled with rage, wishing he could tear him to pieces.
He rembered how he had humbly pleaded with Chu Ge to give back the shares for the sake of his relationship with the Nangong Family, only to be rejected. Hmph, so quack of the world of martial arts – it was clear he had approached the Nangong Family solely for money.
Only the simpletons Nangong Man Sha and Nangong Yunhai had been hoodwinked by Chu Ge’s martial arts tricks!
"What are you looking at? Don’t you know what you’ve done? Or do you need soone else to remind you?" Old Master Nangong, visibly angry, his face turned a bright red from exertion.
Upon seeing this, Nangong Man Sha quickly stepped forward, gently patting Mr. Nangong’s chest, "Grandpa, if you have sothing to say, please say it calmly. Don’t get worked up."
Old Master Nangong raised his hand, interrupting Nangong Man Sha, and scolded Nangong Yunrao, "Yunrao, you are an adult, how could you be so reckless? You actually gambled away sothing as important as the Nangong Family’s shares?"
As expected!
Nangong Yunrao stared at Chu Ge, wishing he could tear him to shreds.
The revelation from Old Master Nangong also shocked Nangong Man Sha, Nangong Yunhai, and Nangong Yunpeng.
They all turned their eyes to Nangong Yunrao, and Nangong Yunpeng asked in disbelief, "Brother, is what Grandpa said true?"
At this mont, Nangong Yunrao truly felt the utter sha, filled with regret. Without the Nangong Family’s shares, his future financial security was gone, and his current life was difficult.
Old Master Nangong stared at him with slight anger, his voice stern, "Fortunately, you encountered Mr. Chu. If he hadn’t retrieved these shares from Yuwen Kangli’s hands, our Nangong Family would have been a laughing stock."
Listening to the Old Master constantly praising Chu Ge, Nangong Yunrao felt bitter. He said sowhat angrily, "Grandpa, yes, Mr. Chu helped
win back these shares, but when I asked him to return them, he refused to, insisting that he won them through his own skill. Grandpa, this man has co for our family’s money. If it weren’t for the Nangong Family’s significant influence in the Capital City, why would he ever help
win back these shares? No, this was not for the shares I won back, but because he had been coveting them for a long ti!"
Nangong Yunrao spoke urgently, but as soon as he finished, he received a disdainful look from Nangong Man Sha.
Old Master Nangong, too, was truly angered by him, his chest heaving with difficult breaths. He scoffed, "I think Mr. Chu did nothing wrong. Since you’re so reluctant to keep the Nangong Family’s shares, it’s understandable for soone to give them directly to ."
Nangong Yunrao: ...
From the implication of Grandpa’s words, it seed he had no intention of returning the shares to him.
More precisely, he had no intention of giving him the Nangong Family’s shares ever again.
But how could this be acceptable!
"Grandpa, I am your own grandson. Can you bear to let
starve in the future?" Seeing that his grandfather was resolute, Nangong Yunrao quickly began to play pitiful.
Old Master Nangong frowned slightly as he stared at Nangong Yunrao with a stern gaze, just about to scold him again when suddenly everything went dark before his eyes, and he collapsed into unconsciousness...
