Nan Zhengde saw Nan Chen’s displeasure, written all over his face.

“You can speak your mind. Don’t just keep it in because of me.” He stole a glance at Nan Chen.

“What you’ve said is right.”

His statement caused Nan Zhengde to be slightly surprised, but he kept calm instead, as he took a sip of his tea, his gaze fixated on Nan Chen.

“It’s certainly true. I’ve recognized the Ouyang family’s capabilities too. However, there’s one variance between our opinions. That is, I highly doubt that we would be able to rid ourselves of enemies if we really were to form an alliance with the Ouyang family.”

Nan Zhengde’s eyes were still on Nan Chen. He made it known that he was still willing to listen.

“The Nan family has always been close with the Ouyang family. To the public, the two families are on good terms. We’d thought so too. However, the incident in Vietnam was clearly carried out with ill intentions. Their malicious acts had almost gotten me into a serious bind. It’s obvious that we’re treated more as imaginary foes than friends to them. They’ve always wanted to be stronger than us.” Nan Chen explained.

Nan Zhengde agreed partially with Nan Chen’s words as he soon stroked his beard before saying, “That’s why we require an alliance. There won’t be a need for imaginary foes after that.”

“That’s too optimistic. With how Ouyang Duo is, even if I married his daughter, he’s not going to treat me like a son, since he already has Ouyang Qi. The marriage will merely be a front. It’d look as though we’d gotten closer, but in reality, we’ll still have to be mindful of them.” Nan Chen expressed his concern on this matter.

“We would need to be cautious of internal and external threats by then. With the two families merging, having to keep up a peaceful front while staying alert will be exhausting. It will cause a lot of problems. Grandpa, you’ve taught me a lot about managing the company, but I’m not good with the intrigues of family politics. The family is safe right now, with you here, but with Ouyang Duo closer, it’ll be like sleeping with a tiger. I’ll never be able to sleep soundly.”

When Nan Chen finished, he stood up and refilled Nan Zhengde’s cup.

Nan Chen was calm and collected throughout his explanation. He was not trying to form an argument, but he still got Nan Zhengde to contemplate on his words.

“Chen is right.” Feng Wan supported Nan Chen. “Ouyang Duo is a greedy man. He has actually tried to take advantage of what happened in Vietnam, threatening us to marry his daughter. This doesn’t sit well with me.”
