Chapter 888 Just Admit To It

Midway through the dinner with Lu Jingyuan and the others, Nan Chen received a call from his butler, Chai Hua. The man said that Feng Wan and Nan Zhengde had a row, asking whether Nan Chen could make a trip home.

When Nan Chen heard that, shock flooded him. Things have always been harmonious between them. Why did they suddenly have an argument?

Thus, he asked Ning Ran to keep Lu Jingyuan and the others company while he headed to Commoner Residence.

The fight was over, and the courtyard was as peaceful as ever. However, Chai Hua revealed that Feng Wan was directing the housekeepers to pack her luggage, for she wanted to go back to her parents' place.

At that, Nan Chen's shock intensified.

Whoa! It must have been a huge row that she's threatening to go to back her parents' place despite being up in years! Hmm, I wonder if all women find their parents' house a safe harbor, regardless of their age.

Verily, he knew little about his grandmother's family. All he knew was they were among the first group of Eurasians who migrated to Norham back then. Later, their business expanded, and they settled down abroad.

At the beginning of Nanshi Corporation's establishment, most of the funds came from them. Subsequently, however, contact between the two families dwindled.

He heard they were coming for his grandmother's birthday this time, but he had not expected the latter to threaten to leave home before the joyous event.

Nan Chen did not bother seeking his grandmother out first because he knew the crux of the matter was not on her but on his grandfather.

Grandpa must have said something to infuriate Grandma that she snapped and is now clamoring to go back to her parents' place though she's advanced in years.

When he entered his grandfather's study room, he found that the man was not writing. That aside, the floor was littered with books. Whoa! It looks like he flew into a towering rage.

“What happened, Grandpa?”

Crouching, he picked up the books on the floor and dusted them off one by one before putting them on the table neatly.
