Of course Nan Yan knew what Nan Shang was thinking. The corners of her lips curled up slightly to reveal a subtle smile. There was a bit of playfulness in her tone as she said, “Dad, you can go. Don’t lose too much though. Otherwise, it will be embarrassing, got it?”
“Ha, ha, ha, girl, how you’ve learned to tease your dad.” Nan Shang was amused and poked her forehead dotingly.
Despite feeling a little regret, Old Master Fu chuckled heartily while watching them. He’d really hoped to become in-laws with the Nan family, and this youngest daughter was indeed very attractive.
Ah! His no-good grandson… Why was he so blind?
What a pity! It really was a pity.
“Grandpa Fu, is it okay if I wander around on my own while you two are playing?” Blinking her lively eyes at Old Master Fu, Nan Yan smiled, and her voice had an affectionate tone.
“Of course, you may go wherever you want. Do you need someone to accompany you?”
“No, I’ll just walk around by myself.”
“Okay, then off you go on your own.” Old Master Fu nodded.
Then he turned around and glanced at Fu Xiao, who was still standing there. He shook his head, looking disappointed. “Don’t you have matters to attend to at your hospital? You can leave now.”
“Yes, sir.” Fu Xiao replied respectfully. After Fu Jingheng had left to make a phone call, his expression had visibly relaxed.
Outside of the banquet hall, there were long corridors on both sides. In front was a small courtyard paved with blue stone, and there was a small European-style fountain in the middle that appeared elegant and extravagant.
The sunshine in March was very warm and gentle but with a hint of coolness. The breeze blew through her sweater. Just as Nan Yan was about to continue with her exploration, a figure dressed in black suddenly approached her.
Nan Yan raised her eyes and saw that it was Fu Xiao.
“You, woman, really are calculating.” Fu Xiao stood in front of her. A trace of contempt flashed in his eyes, and he spoke with disdain.
Nan Yan couldn’t understand what he was talking about, so she thought about it for a while, then asked, “Why do you say this, Young Master Fu?”
“The last time we met in Guming Mall, I told you clearly that I was going to call off the marriage, and you agreed to it. Yet now, you’ve actually brought your dad to my grandfather’s place to play the victim. Isn’t that a bit underhanded? Or, was agreeing to me calling off the marriage just a stalling strategy for you?”
Nan Yan was dumbfounded, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. The last time she’d seen him taking another girl shopping on a romantic date, she had realized that they couldn’t fulfill their contract. She’d had no objection to calling off the marriage, but she hadn’t expected that he would be so brainless to announce it directly on the internet.
It had caused her to be ridiculed yesterday by so many fake friends, who had no genuine friendship with her at all. Coupled with the bad comments about her and the Nan family on the internet, naturally her father and her brothers would want justice.
“Master Fu, I think that having paranoia is part of a psychotic disease that should be cured. As for what I said about the marriage nullification, I was serious. I sincerely wish you and your girlfriend 100 years of bliss and that you give birth to a beautiful child.” She gave him her blessings.
“I’m glad that you were serious. I hope you haven’t said this against your will.” Fu Xiao felt relieved after hearing her say this, but, after a few seconds, a realization dawned upon him. He watched her back as she walked away after bidding him adieu. “Nan Yan, did you just call me a psycho?”
