Just then, Qiao Zhan entered the room. “Sir Chen, Jiang Zhe couldn't get a hold of you, so he phoned me.”

“I won't talk to him. Tell him to handle this matter with Nan Xing and don't bother me,” Nan Chen replied in a cold voice.

“Huh?”

Nan Chen shot him an icy glare. “Do you have trouble understanding my instructions?”

“No, I don't. It's just that Jiang Zhe notified me that the public relations department suggested issuing a statement to apologize for cursing at that man on your behalf. They'd like to ask for your permission to do so,” Qiao Zhan explained.

It was no doubt that Jiang Zhe was very familiar with Nan Chen's character. He knew the latter would be angry at him and thus refuse to answer his call. Hence, he informed Qiao Zhan of the plan and had him relay it to Nan Chen, making things much more straightforward. That way, he would get the answer he needed faster than if he had to wait for his boss to return his call.

Before Nan Chen could respond, Ning Ran became emotional and exclaimed, “A statement of apology? Why should we apologize? We did nothing wrong! That man was the one who threw an egg at Nan Xing. Why can't he curse at him for that?”

Qiao Zhan's and Nan Chen's gazes landed on her simultaneously.

Instantly, she realized she had gone out of line.

How can I interfere with something so significant to the company? Nanshi Corporation's reputation is at stake now.

“I-I didn't mean it. I need to go now. Goodbye!” With that, Ning Ran was ready to flee the scene.

“Stop right there,” Nan Chen commanded.

“I know I shouldn't comment on this, but...”

In a cold voice, he ordered, “Say whatever you were about to say.”

“Fine, if you insist. What I said was true. Nan Xing did curse at that man, but he did it for a reason. When he was at the event, he was you, Sir Chen. It was apparent that the man who threw a rotten egg at him wanted to humiliate you publicly. So, why couldn't you curse at him when he did that to you? Must you accept any humiliation thrown at you and not react to it all because you're Sir Chen? Since he has the right to humiliate you, you have the right to curse at him too!”

She continued, “Even though he threw the egg at Nan Xing, his real agenda was to insult you. That gave Nan Xing the right to swear at him. Why should you apologize when they are the ones who should?”

Ning Ran's emotional state caused her to blurt out her opinions as soon as she opened her mouth.
