Nan Chen kept quiet.
He could feel Nan Zhengde’s rage in his voice and had to calm himself down before he spoke.
“Do you trust me, Grandpa?”
“What do you think? Would I have entrusted you with the Nan family otherwise?” Nan Zhengde asked as he looked straight into Nan Chen’s eyes.
“Thank you for trusting me, Grandpa. In that case, I’ll do my explanation.”
“Very well. Go ahead, I’m listening.”
“As you know, Ning Ran is the mother of those children.”
“Of course I know that, but you shouldn’t give up on something this important just because she’s their mother!” Nan Zhengde said coldly.
“I wasn’t giving up on it. I heard that something had happened to her, so I had to find out about her condition. I believe nothing is more important than human life. We may not be married, but that doesn’t change the fact that she is the mother of my children. Her safety will affect their lives at present and in the future. They mean the world to me, and I am willing to exchange anything for them,” Nan Chen spoke slowly and cautiously while observing Nan Zhengde’s responses.
He only continued when he saw Nan Zhengde motion at him to go on.
“So I didn’t do it for Ning Ran or even myself. I did it for the children as well as the future of the Nan family. I know my reason may not sound very convincing, but that is my honest answer. I’m sure you will be able to make a judgment, Grandpa,” Nan Chen said calmly.
Nan Zhengde remained silent and seemed to be in deep thought.
“Well, I suppose your reasoning is acceptable,” he said after a long pause.
That meant it wasn’t completely convincing.
“So why did you change your mind in the end?” Nan Zhengde asked.
“Because I found out that she wasn’t really in a life-threatening situation,” Nan Chen replied.
That was one of the very few moments Nan Chen had told a lie.
He had actually planned on seeing the official at night, but Ning Ran urged him to leave by throwing him out.
“What exactly did she say to you throughout the entire process?” Nan Zhengde asked.
