Nan Jin was seriously considering the issue, even Nan Xi had noticed it?
Nan Jin actually, truly harbored such intentions.
This left Nan Xi’s heart feeling icy cold.
"Dad, what did I do wrong?"
Nan Xi felt particularly miserable, why treat her ? What had she done wrong?
Even if the female protagonist’s mother had schemed against Nan Jin in the past, to hold a grudge against a child like her was utterly tasteless. It really was.
"Heh, what do you think?"
Nan Jin scoffed coldly, Nan Xi still had the knack for playing dumb.
"I don’t know, can you tell me, please? Anything for you, I’ll change."
Although Nan Xi felt horribly uncomfortable, even thinking Nan Jin was no good,
she also knew that without Nan Jin, if she wasn’t the Nan Family’s young miss, how she would be able to be with Ouyang.
Ouyang was the male protagonist, who in the future would become the top pharmacy in the field of traditional Chinese medicine, and Ouyang also had his own business empire.
Only an Ouyang of such standing could be worthy of her.
She had traveled through time, she surely couldn’t just live an ordinary life. She must have the most splendid life of all.
"Nan Xi, don’t give me this spiel, in my eyes, you’re nothing but a clown. I have seen all sorts of people.
Either cooperate properly, or get lost."
Nan Jin didn’t want to waste any more time talking with Nan Xi.
Now, he had figured it out, since it was a mistake in the past, it was time to set things right.
Ah Xiu was his, it was Bai Da that shamelessly caused their misunderstanding back then, so now, he certainly wouldn’t make the same mistake.
He had to let Ah Xiu know that, no matter how much time had passed, he was still here, still waiting for her.
Nan Xi felt somewhat sad, or perhaps despondent, beginning to doubt herself for the first time.
The Nan Jin she wrote about was far too different from the real Nan Jin. Her Nan Jin, although also fond of Ye Xiu, softened at the sight of the female protagonist.
He then doted on the female protagonist to the heavens, yet now no matter what she said or did, he simply didn’t care for her.
"Dad, what if I say I can help you secure the entire Nanning order?"
Nan Xi knew that Nan Jin was currently stressed over the Nanning order because he wanted to maximize profits, but many pharmacies were resisting his pricing.
Even Ouyang was part of it, and even after signing a contract, it was only partly.
They were looking for a new supplier.
"How do you know about this?"
Yan Jin narrowed his eyes, a flicker of suspicion in them, but mostly guarded.
He had never trusted Nan Xi, even if she was his daughter.
In this world, there was nothing that could be trusted. Not even one’s daughter.
The only person who could make him let down his guard was just one person, and that was Ah Xiu.
But because of Bai Da, Ah Xiu had been separated from him for so many years, and now there was the irksome presence of Nan Xi.
Bai Da, he better pray that he never sees him again, or else it would be a fight to the death between him and Bai Da.
And Nan Xi kept calling Bai Da ’Daddy’, even after previously thinking she wasn’t his daughter, yet still had the nerve to come over to acknowledge kinship, acting as if she had been wronged.
Just like her disgusting mother, indeed a similar existence.
"I...," Nan Xi suddenly realized, Nan Jin was such a cautious person. By mentioning it so casually, she was sure to be suspected.
"Brother Ouyang told me, he likes me very much, so he shares everything with me."
Nan Xi quickly said, her confidence convincing Nan Jin.
Because she was too confident, it seemed genuine.
"Oh, then how do you plan to help me?"
Nan Jin hadn’t expected Nan Xi could actually be of some use.
"I’ll discuss with Brother Ouyang to see what their bottom line is, then Dad, you’ll be able to handle it better, right? Although I like him, I’m your daughter.
You will be my support in the future, so I’m still on Dad’s side."
Nan Xi spoke firmly, with a much more serious tone.
She sounded more like she was stating her demands, or perhaps her worth.
Good, this was something they could talk about.
Nan Jin crossed his arms, looking at Nan Xi.
Nan Xi blinked her eyes, lifting a pure smile.
"Dad, I just want you to be happy, do you believe me?"
Nan Jin naturally didn’t believe it.
Nan Xi’s voice was tinged with hurt, "I’m telling the truth, but Dad, you don’t want to believe me."
Nan Xi and Nan Jin continued their probing, while Ouyang happily got his goods.
He returned to the Ou Family home that very night, only to find everyone there not in high spirits.
His father, who loved to go out and enjoy life, was surprisingly at home as well, looking troubled. This surprised Ouyang.
"Dad, why are you at home?"
In Ouyang’s memory, his father was always about fun and leisure, splurging on outings. He had little concern for his son.
As for his mother, she spent her days either in tears or sighing deeply.
Or else she would say he was unimpressive; otherwise, his father wouldn’t have left them.
Having heard this all his life, he had become numb to it.
He knew that if he wanted something, he had to strive for it himself because no one else would help him.
As for such parents, he naturally had little expectation.
"Isn’t it because your grandfather is unhappy today? Why are you only getting back now? Son, you listen..."
Before he could finish, Ouyang walked away. The grandfather being unhappy, what an opportunity.
As long as the grandfather saw his contract, he was bound to be pleased. Then he would surely open doors for him.
"Where are you going? Listen to me first." We in the Ou Family have had major bad luck today; you don’t want to rub salt into the wound.
Unfortunately, Ouyang wasn’t listening.
He walked faster, heading straight to the Old Master of Ou Family’s courtyard, and saw Ouyang.
The Old Master of Ou Family was fuming.
Ouyang and Moh Li had always been together, but now Moh Li had quite openly outplayed their Ou Family.
Did Moh Li know about it or not?
If he knew, was he foolish not to tell him, so he could be prepared?
If he hadn’t known, hadn’t he noticed anything through their daily interactions? If that was the case, what use was this useless grandson of his, what was the use?
So, regardless of whether Ouyang knew or not, in the Old Master of Ou Family’s eyes, Ouyang’s image had been greatly diminished.
At the very least, he was disappointed.
So when he saw the smile on Ouyang’s face, the Old Master of Ou Family’s expression immediately fell.
