“No!” Nan Chen turned down his grandfather.

“If you don’t agree, I won’t allow you to make the trip. Have I not made myself clear? That’s the only viable plan we have for now. We’ll get Nan Xing to take over your position because we need someone reliable to oversee the entire operation and ensure everyone’s safety. If Nan Xing is the one hiding in the dark, do you think he’s able to keep you safe from any harm? This is the only way to resolve the issue in Vietnam while keeping both of you safe!” Nan Zhengde insisted.

“No, Grandpa! Please don’t force me to repeat myself one more time!” Nan Chen made himself clear.

Similarly, Nan Zhengde showed no signs of giving in. “If you’re not willing to listen to me, none of you are allowed to make the trip to Vietnam! We can’t afford to put any one of you at stake! This is too much of a cost to bear! After all, the project in Vietnam is merely a project. You don’t need to put your life at stake for a mere project.”

“Grandpa, I have made countless business trips abroad previously. This is merely another ordinary business trip.”

“It’s not the same! Someone else is in charge of the itinerary of the entire trip! You don’t get a say at all! Either you get Nan Xing to take over your position, or none of you gets to make the trip!”

Nan Chen was aware of his grandfather’s temperament. Things would turn out to be messy if he refused to give in to his grandfather’s suggestion.

Although he had taken over the role of leading Nanshi Corporation, Nan Zhengde still wielded great influence in the corporation.

Since Nan Zhengde was aware of the possible risk associated with this trip, Nan Chen wouldn’t get to make the trip if he didn’t acquire his grandfather’s consent.

“Fine. I’ll make the necessary arrangements to execute the plan.” Nan Chen finally gave in to his grandfather’s suggestion.

His grandfather was surprised; he didn’t expect his grandson would adhere to his suggestion.

Hence, he had his fair share of doubts and stared at Nan Chen in the eyes to ensure he hadn’t been hearing things.

Nan Chen nodded once again to assure his grandfather, “You heard me right, Grandpa. I will have Nan Xing take over my role.”

“You’re not lying to me, are you?”

“I’m not lying, Grandpa,” Nan Chen nodded and reassured his grandfather.
