Chapter 577 Confrontation

The next day, Ouyang Duo showed up at Commoner Residence with some gifts and requested to see Nan Zhengde. Due to the close relationship between the two families, Nan Zhengde had no reason not to see him.

The gifts he brought included famous calligraphy art, wild ginseng, and some high-quality bird’s nest. Besides, with the Lunar New Year just around the corner, it made perfect sense for Ouyang Duo to pay Nan Zhengde a visit before returning to Pearl City for the celebration.

Seeing as Ouyang Duo had come with such expensive gifts, it was only natural for Nan Zhengde to give them an equally generous welcome.

Because Ouyang Duo brought his wife and daughter over, Nan Zhengde summoned Nan Chen and Nan Xing back home to accompany them.

Just like that, Nan Chen and Nan Xing were both called back home on short notice to prepare a feast for their guests.

Ouyang Duo was planning on observing the Nan family members’ reactions before deciding on his approach.

Hostile behavior from Nan Zhengde would indicate that the relationship between the two families has been ruined. If that were the case, Ouyang Duo would immediately go on the offensive and demand an explanation for letting Ouyang Qing get hurt.

However, Nan Zhengde’s friendly attitude suggested that everything was all right, so Ouyang Duo adjusted his strategy and reminisced about old times with Nan Zhengde instead.

As the two families have been close for generations, they had plenty of topics to talk about.

They were in the middle of having a pleasant conversation when Nan Xing came home, and the atmosphere in the house changed instantly.

Despite Nan Chen’s reminders to play it cool, Nan Xing’s anger still got the better of him. He ruined the mood by ignoring Ouyang Duo and Ouyang Qing when he saw them.

“Xing!” Nan Zhengde called out to him and motioned for him to greet their guests politely.

“What is it, Nan Xing?” he asked deliberately.

“What’s the matter, Nan Xing? Are you going to pretend that you don’t know me? Or are you just going to ignore my presence completely?”
