Chapter 894 Is That Schadenfreude

Even though Nan Chen told Ning Ran to speak her mind, she still preferred to be cautious as it involved an elder of Nan Chen's.

Given that someone as outspoken as Nan Xing had to mind his tongue, she figured the issue would likely bother Nan Chen.

“Tell me!”

Nan Chen began to lose his patience at Ning Ran's hesitation.

“Back in the restaurant, Uncle Shikun recognized Nanshi Corporation headquarters at a single glance.”

“Is that all? The building is a city landmark. Why is it strange that he recognizes it?”

“But he hasn't returned to the country for many years. So how did he do so at first glance? Also, he recognized Nan Xing right away at the airport. Considering how close both of you resemble each other, why can he tell both of you apart with such ease?”

Nan Chen pondered for a moment. “You have a point. If neither of us speaks, only a rare few in Flower City can tell us apart.”

He looked up at Ning Ran and asked, “What does this mean?”

Ning Ran shook her head. She was just highlighting what she saw but didn't dare come to a conclusion.

“I don't know. There's something else that I'm hesitant to tell you about.”

“What is it?”

“But I—”

“Out with it.”

“Really?”

“Yes!” Nan Chen felt irritated.

“When the restaurant owner found Uncle Shikun familiar and mentioned that he had dined there with a man and a woman last month, Uncle Shikun denied it angrily, insisting that the owner had made a mistake.”
