At the Commoner Residence of the Nan Family at 7:00 p.m.
Nan Zhengde was glad to hear that Nan Chen, who was extremely busy, had decided to come home for dinner so Nan Zhengde had the maid pick a good bottle of wine from the wine cellar so Nan Chen could have some.
Nan Chen had been busy the whole day and wanted to have a drink too.
“Grandpa,” said Nan Chen grimly as he set his bowl and chopsticks down, “There’s something I’d like to discuss with you.”
The Nan Family didn’t have a rule that forbade anyone from talking during meals, but they were required to put their chopsticks down and were banned from talking with their mouths full.
“I knew you didn’t come home just for me. Go ahead, tell me what you want.”
“Can I throw a huge wedding party for the Nan Family?” asked Nan Chen, “A sophisticated and upscale party. I want it to make it big since the Nan Family had not had a celebration in a while.”
“Yes, of course,” Nan Zhengde was instantly delighted, “Are you marrying someone? Is it that actress named Luo?”
Nan Zhengde didn’t really want his grandson to marry a third-rated actress, but Nan Chen was never close to any other women so if his wife had to be an actress, then so be it. It’s better than not marrying at all.
“No,” said Nan Chen as he shook his head.
“Not that actress? Then who are you marrying?” asked the intrigued Nan Zhengde, “Why haven’t I heard anything about it?”
“I’m not the one getting married. Nan Xing is. He is my only brother and I want his wedding to be grand, maybe even be one of the grandest events of the decade,” said Nan Chen.
“Huh? Nan Xing’s the one getting married?” said Nan Zhengde who was a little disappointed, “Oh, I thought you wanted to get married.”
They were both his grandsons so why was Nan Zhengde disappointed?
Well, the reason was simple. It was easy for Nan Xing to get married because he had plenty of women circling around him.
If Nan Xing wanted, he could get married on a monthly basis. Hell, he could get married in the first week of the month then get divorced on the last week of the month before repeating.
Women loved hanging around Nan Xing, and Nan Xing was a playboy who had never rejected anyone beautiful.
Hence, it was not surprising to hear that a man like that wanted to get married.
Nan Chen, on the other hand, had been a female repellant. The female socialites who wanted to get close to him had all been rejected, and could only admire him from afar.
As for the actress named Luo, Nan Zhengde had looked into the matter and realized that she never spent the night with Nan Chen so she was only his girlfriend by reputation.
That was why Nan Zhengde was not worried about Nan Xing but was worried about Nan Chen.
When he thought that Nan Chen was the one getting married, he was over the moon, but when he heard it was Nan Xing, he wasn’t as happy anymore.
“Grandpa, Nan Xing getting married is also good news,” said Nan Chen who noticed the change in his grandfather’s expression, “You should be happy.”
“I am happy, really happy,” said Nan Zhengde.
“Then I’ll be in charge of the wedding. I’ll pick a couple of experts to form a wedding planning group and have them prepare for the wedding of the century!”
Nan Zhengde nodded immediately, “Okay. I’ve always been confident in your work.”
“Do you have any suggestions, grandpa?” asked Nan Chen.
“Hmm… I’ve been to lots of weddings, and it’s easy to make a wedding look majestic. We only need to spend the money.” “However, I think that it’s not wise to do so because the Nan Family’s reputation is already great, and we don’t need a wedding to demonstrate our strength.”
“That is why I think it is best to make it classy without being overly majestic. It’s best if it could also be meaningful and stylish.” “You know what I mean, don’t you? It’s like your status in Flower City. You kept a low profile and never made an entrance, but everyone knows and respects you.”
“That is the type of effect I want for this wedding,” said Nan Zhengde, “It’s difficult to achieve it, but I think you can manage it.”
“I understand, grandpa,” said Nan Chen as he nodded.
