“Have you lodged a police report, then? Did you get the police involved in this matter?” Nan Zhengde asked.

“No. I was worried that the reputation of the Nan family would be affected if the matter were to blow up, so I advised Qing against lodging a police report,” Ouyang Duo answered.

“Oh, then I'll certainly get to the bottom of this matter. Ms. Qing must have suffered a fright,” Nan Zhengde remarked.

“My daughter isn't that fragile, actually. She's just been worried about Nan Xing. Conversely, Nan Xing wasn't even willing to answer her calls. That was indeed callous of him,” Ouyang Duo groused.

“Hmm, I think there's something odd about this.” Nan Xing abruptly pinned his gaze on Ouyang Duo.

“What's odd?”

“Previously, you kept demanding to know what happened, but you now claim that you advised Ouyang Qing against lodging a police report. So, you actually know everything that had transpired? Since you're aware of it all, why are you feigning ignorance? It's clear as day that you're deliberately putting on a show in front of my grandfather. What is your motive, then? Or are you involved in this matter in the first place?” Nan Xing demanded.

Ouyang Duo was stunned for a moment, for he didn't expect the man to retaliate.

I only knew that Nan Chen was extremely capable, but it turned out that he's also on par with his brother!

“I was referring to the fact that I didn't lodge a police report about my daughter's injuries. As for the rest, I don't know anything. That's why I'm here to clarify things.”

However, he was a cunning old fox, so he managed to recover swiftly and respond reasonably.

At once, Nan Xing was left without a retort, and words eluded him.

“But why didn't you lodge a police report, Mr. Ouyang? Since Ms. Ouyang is injured, you should've lodged a police report no matter the reason.”

A voice chimed in, heralding Nan Chen's arrival.

The moment Ouyang Qing spotted the man, mixed feelings brewed within her.
