A ton of honeyed words poured out of Ning Ran's mouth as she rambled endlessly. As she spoke, she observed Nan Chen's expression.

Then, she lamented inwardly. Poker Face will always have a poker face. No matter how much I try to flatter him, his face remains devoid of expression.

“Am I right, Sir Chen?” she asked, unwilling to give up.

“About?” Nan Chen asked in return.

Hearing that, Ning Ran almost burst a blood vessel.

I wasted so much saliva, yet he didn't even hear a single word? This is simply too much!

She stopped massaging the man. In truth, she wanted to punch him in the face, but she dared not do so.

“I was speaking about the matter regarding Frosty Warrior. You're not going to charge me for real, yes? You were merely joking with me, weren't you?” she questioned cautiously.

“We'll see,” Nan Chen answered noncommittally.

“What stage is the investigation at, then? Is that person a local? What's his occupation?” Ning Ran pressed.

“There's a lead, but they're still following up on it. The investigation is still ongoing. Be patient.”

“Okay, I'll remain patient. I believe that you'll undoubtedly be able to help me unearth his identity. Thank you,” Ning Ran murmured as politely as possible.

“You're not mad anymore?”

Without warning, Nan Chen exerted strength and wrapped his arm around her, sitting her on his lap.

“Yes, I'm still angry!” Ning Ran deliberately fibbed.

“I know you meant well, but the enmity between the Nan and Rong families has persisted for decades. It's not something you can resolve.”
