Two hours later, Ning Ran and Ruan Anxi arrived at a teahouse in the city.

Just like always, they ordered food from the neighboring restaurant.

No sooner had they taken their seats than Nan Chen arrived.

He was only let in after Ruan Anxi gave the okay.

Upon scrutinizing Nan Chen, Ruan Anxi was awed by how outstanding the former was.

“You are worthy of Ning Ran.”

His strange comment made it sound like he was helping Ning Ran choose a partner in a matchmaking session.

At that, words eluded both Nan Chen and Ning Ran.

“Why do you want to see my grandfather? You can come with me to Flower City to meet him, or I can convey to him in verbatim whatever you have to say,” Nan Chen remarked coldly.

Ruan Anxi poured a cup of tea for Nan Chen. “Are you trying to keep me in Flower City by force?”

“No. There's no bad blood between us. All this happened because of a woman called Ding Fei,” Nan Chen explained.

However, Ruan Anxi didn't respond to the revelation.

“Ding Fei is a wicked person and is using you,” Ning Ran interjected.

“I'm not a good person either. Moreover, I'm using her too, as she is my servant.”

Ning Ran was once again at a loss for words, for there was nothing appropriate she could think of to say.

Ruan Anxi was a wicked person after all, and it wasn't unreasonable for him to be in league with Ding Fei.

“In that case, why do you want to see my grandfather?” Nan Chen insisted on learning the reason.

I'm sure you're aware that I'm a pretty competent doctor too. In spite of that, her vanity drove her to demand plastic surgery. Hence, I personally operated on her, treating her as a test subject. Even though I attended classes on plastic surgery, my practical experience was limited. That said, the results exceeded my expectations as I succeeded in turning her into an entirely different person.
