My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 410

“I see. I understand now. Let me get someone to get to the bottom of this.”

Although old Nan Zhengde’s heart was filled with suspicion, his voice did not flinch as he called out to his butler, Chai Hua, and motioned to him to investigate the matter.

Chai Hua obeyed and went to the corner to make a phone call.

“The children like Ouyang Qing, so I allow her to take them out to play. I’m sorry for the problem caused by that.” The Old Master did not want the situation to become even more awkward, hence he spoke tactfully.

“My daughter also likes the two children, hence they are close to each other. Since they’ll be a family in the future, it’ll be good to let them interact more often. It’s just that the public security of Flower City is not good, leading to the children being bullied. Thankfully, my daughter Qing was there to make sure the children were not wronged, thus leading to the trouble,” Feng Jialing narrated with gusto, emphasizing Ouyang Qing’s contribution.

Upon hearing the one-sided narration, Feng Wan who was sitting beside could not bear to listen anymore. “Weren’t there bodyguards assigned? Who would dare to pick on the children of the Nan family? We are already doing the world a favor by not picking on anyone. The fact that they were harassed in Flower City meant that someone dared to go against the Nans!”

The words from her mouth sounded arrogant, yet rang the truth!

With the dominant influence of the Nan family in Flower City, what were the possibilities of anyone picking on them?

In fact, old Nan Zhengde agreed whole-heartedly with these words. But since he was the patriarch of the family, he had to keep up his stoic appearance and had to hold back from agreeing with the statement.

But Feng Wan did not care as much, hence her sudden outburst.

Both Feng Wan and Feng Jialing shared the same surname of Feng. At one point Feng Jialing had even addressed the former as “aunt”. However, in Feng Wan’s eyes, Feng Jialing was always self-righteous, and hence she did not like the latter very much.

“Aunt, I may not know too much about this incident, but my Qing was arrested for protecting the children. This is a fact.” Feng Jialing sounded dissatisfied, sensing that the Nan family was not backing her up fully.

Feng Wan wanted to retort, but the old man winked at her and hinted at her not to say anything anymore.

“Let’s take a break, shall we? Bring out some tea! Let’s serve our guest here a good cup of tea.” Feng Wan waved her hand.

This simple act might look normal, but in fact, there was a profound hidden meaning.

The person who called for tea was the master, and the person who is served tea was the guest.

In other words, Feng Wan was telling Feng Jialing subtly that even if she was Ouyang Duo’s wife, she was still only a guest here, hence she should not overstep her bounds and push her luck!

Right then, Chai Hua came over and whispered a few words into the ear of old Nan Zhengde. No one could hear what was said between them.

“Don’t worry. Your daughter has been released. It’s no longer a problem,” the old man announced.

“Really?” Feng Jialing could hardly believe it.

“Of course it’s true. The Nans still exert certain influence in Flower City,” Feng Wan could not help herself and retort.

Feng Jialing was at a loss for words. She quickly took out her phone and dialed for Ouyang Qing.

As if right on cue, Ouyang Qing quickly answered her call, “Mom?”

“Are you okay? Are you now out?”

“I’m fine. Totally okay. They can’t do anything to me. But I still want to sue them!” Ouyang Qing complained furiously over the phone.

“Zip it. Let’s not talk about it now. I’m over at the Nan family. We’ll discuss this matter later. Hang up first.” With that, Feng Jialing hung up the call.

“My heartfelt thanks to your daughter for taking good care of my great-grandchildren. The Nan family is grateful,” the Old Master thanked politely yet again.

“Old master is way too polite. We’re a family anyway. By the way, where is Nan Chen? With something like this happening, why doesn’t he say anything? Doesn’t he care?” Feng Jialing ventured.

In fact, old Nan Zhengde hoped to be able to answer this question himself.

After all, Nan Chen had been unreachable since yesterday, and no one knew where he had gone.

However, Nan Zhengde himself was not too worried. He knew that Nan Chen disappeared for a reason, and he had brought along Qiao Zhan and Jiang Zhe – one being the brain, another being the brawn – with him.

This was enough to show that Nan Chen was not seized nor disappeared unintentionally; he was on a mission of his own.

Nonetheless, Nan Chen did not tell anyone what he was going to do, nor did he tell anyone where he went.

Therefore the old man could not answer Feng Jialing’s question. Even if he knew the answer, he would not tell her in the first place.
