The Nan residence, the Commoner Residence.

Three persons with a similar look, with one looking slightly chubbier than the rest, sat around the dining table.

The chubbier one looked at the other two, because they appeared to be rather emotionally distant.

Of course, the chubbier one was Erbao. And the other two were Nan Chen and Dabao.

Nan Chen who was working overtime received a call from the maid, saying Dabao refused to eat. He had no choice but to rush home.

Today had not been a great day for Nan Chen, after he bumped into Nan Xing and Ning Ran walking out of Nanting No.1 Hotel this morning.

He felt he had fallen into Ning Ran's trap and could not escape from it anymore.

Just when he thought he could treat this relationship more seriously, he felt Ning Ran did not think likewise. Perhaps to her, spending a night in the arms of another man in a hotel was just something casual.

And the worst thing was, the man was his brother. Nan Chen felt embarrassed and disgusted.

This was the worst day for Nan Chen. Yet, Dabao chose to be on a hunger strike. Nan Chen had not been exceptionally kind to Dabao the minute he stepped into the house.

Coincidentally, Dabao was not in a good mood either, and he was not ready to be nice to Nan Chen.

If an adult could not manage his emotions well, how could we expect a child to do so?

So the cold war began. No one had spoken a single word for almost ten minutes.

Erbao was already eyeing on the delicious food on the table. She took a glance at Nan Chen and Dabao, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva. She was famished.

“Ning Sirui, I always thought you're a mature child. But now you're just throwing a childish tantrum by not eating. I'm disappointed in you.” Nan Chen started the conversation in the tone of an adult.

Not going to play nice, not going to please him, not going to compromise.

“I'm disappointed too.” Such powerful words coming from a five-year-old.

Nan Chen was shocked for a bit.

Everyone's a fighter here. No weaklings in the Nan family, indeed.

“Why are you disappointed?” Nan Chen reconsidered his strategy to appease his opponent a little.
