Outside the study, Ming Zicheng asked in a deep voice, "Is something the matter?"
"Which room are you and Yu Xi in? I've already entered the villa and I'm afraid I'll go to the wrong room and alarm my old man and the two children," Nan Xiao's voice came through the phone, deliberately lowered.
Ming Zicheng raised an eyebrow slightly, realizing his subordinate's worries were not unfounded.
No matter how advanced the security system of the villa on the mountainside was, or how many bodyguards there were, they were useless against a super expert like Nan Xiao.
But this guy, he had asked him to come together, and he refused, so why did he show up on his own now?
"Where are you now?" Ming Zicheng asked.
"Third floor, the piano room."
"Stay put and don't move. I'll have someone come and get you."
Ming Zicheng turned to look at the person hiding behind the crystal pillar.
"Stop hiding. Go to the piano room on the third floor and bring Nan Xiao down... Bring him to the study."
Qiao Yisi walked out in disbelief, "He just walked in so brazenly?"
"What else? Go on, don't alert the others."
Ming Zicheng said and pushed open the door to the study.
Lan Yuxi sat in the boss's chair with her arms crossed, her gaze cold as she stared at the computer screen.
"Found it?" Ming Zicheng held a bowl of crystal shrimp dumplings and carefully placed it on the table. "Eat something first, so you'll have energy to fight later."
Lan Yuxi's lips twitched. "Fight with whom? That guy is in T country. I can't get there for now, but I've already sent people over to arrest him."
"You have people in T country?"
"More than just T country, I might even have people in your presidential palace," Lan Yuxi shrugged. "Eat your dumplings. I hope my people can control him before he sends the message."
Ming Zicheng touched his nose and returned to the front of the sofa, picking up the white porcelain bowl. "By the way, Nan Xiao is here. Do you want to see him?"
Lan Yuxi glared at him at a forty-five-degree angle for a while before saying, "Did you already let him in?"
"Did I need to let him in? He walked in himself. I'd say your security needs improvement."
Lan Yuxi's hand holding the spoon trembled slightly. She lowered her eyes and ate a shrimp dumpling before saying, "No matter how advanced the security system is, it's useless to him."
Outside the main gate, in a luxury sedan.
Nan Xiangbei stared at the computer screen and asked, "Brother Dong, do you think Lan Yuxi will see our boss?"
Nan Xiangdong said with concern, "It's unlikely. I'm afraid she'll get angry and beat him out again."
"It's already this late, and you're still thinking about fighting? Hurry up and find a solution. Alas!"
Nan Xiangdong glanced at him. "Didn't you always say you wanted to go to Norkas? Why haven't you left yet?"
"I get angry whenever that's mentioned. I've applied twice, and they wouldn't process my visa. Later, I found out that Norkas said they would reject anyone surnamed Nan."
"Are they targeting our Nan family?"
"Who says they aren't! I have a feeling Lan Yuxi is definitely not as simple as she appears."
As the two were talking, the main gate slowly opened.
Qiao Yisi walked to the car and gently knocked on the car window.
Nan Xiangdong and Nan Xiangbei exchanged a look, opened the car door, and got out.
A moment later, they followed Qiao Yisi into the study.
At this moment, in the study.
Ming Zicheng and Lan Yuxi were sitting in front of the coffee table and the boss's desk respectively, enjoying the delicious shrimp dumplings, while Nan Xiao sat alone in a single sofa, watching the two of them eat.
Lan Yuxi saw Nan Xiangdong and Nan Xiangbei enter with Qiao Yisi, took a napkin, and wiped her lips. "Sit down, everyone."
Just as Qiao Yisi was about to sit down, Lan Yuxi's voice came over.
"Qiao Yisi, are you planning to stay up all night with us?"
Qiao Yisi blinked his big blue eyes innocently. "Master, are you trying to make me leave?"
"You don't need to leave, but you can't help. It's better for you to rest."
"I don't want to rest, I want to stay with you."
The tear mole on the corner of Lan Yuxi's eye twitched uncontrollably.
A grown man acting spoiled in front of so many people, what was he trying to do?
Lan Yuxi glared at him irritably, then looked at the silent Nan Xiao.
"President Nan, you rushed over so urgently, did something happen?"
This was the first sentence she had given Nan Xiao since he entered.
Nan Xiao glanced at her, then quickly looked away.
"The person I arranged to go to H country for plastic surgery has suddenly disappeared. If the other party continues to leak information tonight and I can't find that girl, this matter will be difficult to handle. I came to discuss with you, why don't you take the two children and the old man to M country for a few days tomorrow morning, and I'll bring you back after I've dealt with it."
Lan Yuxi raised her eyebrows. "The person is missing, how are you going to handle it?"
"The press conference will proceed as scheduled tomorrow. I will take all the blame for what happened back then. Even if I can't find that girl, I still have her photo. Even if I can't shut everyone up, at least it will divert some attention from you."
Lan Yuxi leaned back in the boss's chair, her eyes lowered to her slightly trembling hands. He was still thinking of her at this time, it would be a lie to say she wasn't moved.
"If you take all the blame, what about yourself? Are you giving up Nan Corporation and the Nan family?"
"I will announce my departure from Nan Corporation to the public, and Xiangdong will be the president. As for the Nan family... it's already like that, I can't control too much. At worst, I'll hand over the family heirloom and let other branches become the head of the family."
Lan Yuxi let out a scoff. "There's an insider in the Nan family, do you know that? If you give up the Nan family, you'll be playing right into their hands. Without the title of family head, can you still protect Nan Corporation?"
Seeing that everyone was silent, Lan Yuxi turned her head to look at Ming Zicheng.
There were some things she didn't want to say, so she had to let him speak on her behalf.
Ming Zicheng crossed his legs casually and said with a smile.
"Um... President Nan, actually, when you told me about that matter, I wanted to tell you... you and my senior sister..."
Ming Zicheng deliberately paused, stopping at a crucial moment.
Everyone, except Lan Yuxi, looked over eagerly.
Ming Zicheng looked around, and finally his gaze fell on Nan Xiao's face. "Actually, you and my senior sister are not related by blood. You are not her maternal uncle, and she is not your niece."
Nan Xiao felt all his blood rush to his head. After a long time, he looked at Lan Yuxi with burning eyes.
"Xi Bao, is he telling the truth?"
One word, "Xi Bao," almost made Lan Yuxi break down.
She lowered her eyes, hiding the glistening tears.
Ming Zicheng coughed lightly. "President Nan, I already have samples from you and my senior sister for DNA testing. It's expedited. If you don't believe me, just wait for the results."
Nan Xiangdong slapped his thigh hard. "Great! As long as you two are not related by blood, all problems will be solved!"
Nan Xiao stared at Lan Yuxi without blinking. "Xi Bao, what exactly is going on?"
