Nan Chen fell silent for a moment.

“Grandpa, do you think that they would go to someone else and tag along with them?”

“Yes.”

“But how would they manage that?”

Nan Zhengde took a few steps forward, saying, “Chen, you’re outstanding in every aspect, but overly upright at the same time. You despised any underhanded dealings and schemes. However, the world is full of evil, and you’re in an enviable position, so you must be cautious to protect yourself. Give it some thought, and you’ll figure out how they do it.”

Without uttering a word, Nan Chen was sunk in thought for a short while. “I think I got it.”

“Oh? Tell me.”

“Every Nan family member knows that Grandpa refused to forgive them, but in the eyes of the outsiders, they’re still part of our family. Thus, no one will reject them if they ask for help. Besides, they can even lie saying that you wanted them to return to the family, but you just can’t lower yourself to ask them. Those who want to please our family will agree to it, thinking that they’re doing something good for us.”

Nan Chen was a man of few words, and he only spoke when he reasoned with someone.

Yet, he rarely needed to do so, as his unparalleled capabilities already said it all.

As a result, he doesn’t need to speak much most of the time.

Nan Zhengde gave him a firm nod. “You’re absolutely correct.”

“As for who will be bringing them… Grandpa, I guess you’ve foreseen it, right?” Nan Chen said.

“They’ll surely tag along with an influential person.”

“But everyone that we invited to the birthday banquet is influential, or else they won’t be allowed to come.”

“Yes, but some are more powerful than the others,” the elderly man explained.

Nan Chen nodded in agreement.
