Old Nan Zhengde could feel his anger rising inside him. However, he kept the fire at bay, seeing that there was a guest present. Needless to say, his face looked irate.

Nan Zhiyuan was not an idiot either. He could sense that his old man was upset.

Therefore he dared not to speak of it anymore. The atmosphere was awkward for a while.

Fortunately, there was a little expert specialized in alleviating awkward situations and brightening up a situation. Behold, Erbao decided to butt in at that right moment. “Great-Grandpa and Great-Grandma, come play with me?”

The Old Master’s blackened face suddenly burst into a smile, “Sure, but Great-Grandpa is too old to play along!”

“Great-Grandpa is not old! Great-Grandpa is still a young boy! Full of energy!” Erbao said with a serious look on her face.

Her words made everyone present laughed.

Like a cloud blown away by the wind, the awkward atmosphere cleared and became more relaxed.

“Chop-chop! Go take a shower and change into some fresh clothes. Tonight, you’ll be staying to dine with Great-Grandpa and Great-Grandma!” Feng Wan brushed Erbao’s head lovingly.

Ever a glutton, Erbao burst out enthusiastically, “Yes! Off I’ll go then! I want to eat lots of delicious food later!”

“Don’t worry, my greedy kitten. Everything you want to eat will be made available for you.”

Meanwhile, Feng Jialing looked knowingly at Bai Hua, her seemingly suggestive stare conveying some sort of hint to her.

Perceiving her insinuation, Bai Hua stood up and asked, “Dad, why don’t you let Mrs. Ouyang stay for dinner too?”

Nan Zhengde became unhappy upon hearing that. Yet, since Bai Hua had brought it up, he had to agree no matter what.

He could not refuse others from staying for dinner. It would be too awkward and embarrassing on his part.

Feng Jialing pretended to refuse, “No, I can’t. Today Ouyang Duo is in town for a meeting. I’ll have to accompany him to dinner later.”

“In that case, invite Ouyang Duo to come as well. The more the merrier,” Nan Zhengde suggested.

Feng Jialing feigned her refusal, “Nah, it’s okay. We don’t want to impose upon you.”

“It won’t be a problem. After all, I have still yet to thank Ouyang Duo for hosting my birthday banquet. I have always wanted to thank him. Today is the perfect day to do that. I’ll prepare a little wine and have a drink with him later. Let me call him up personally. I’m sure he won’t reject my personal invitation. Let him come over for a gathering,” the old man reiterated.

“I don’t want to bother you. Let me just call him myself. Thanks for your sincere thought.” Feng Jialing was feeling elated.

The whole outcome was not a planned ploy. The opportunity arose because of Ouyang Qing’s fiasco. With that as the catalyst, Feng Jialing managed to get this far.

She wanted to cash in on this opportunity to put more pressure on the Nan family for one last time.

She had always wanted to push two things in one go, namely the joint venture project proposal in Vietnam, and secondly the marriage between Nan Chen and Ouyang Qing.

Sure, these two things were related to a certain extent, but also stood independently.
