Chapter 391: Chapter 394

Nan Xing refused to believe he had got lucky because he found the timeline of their meet up to be too much of a coincidence.

The fight occurred just this morning, but someone showed up out of nowhere in the afternoon and told him he would be able to get everything sorted out for him.

“I’m afraid I’m not capable of resolving the issue,” Wang Shoucai told Nan Xing after he took a sip of tea.

Nan Xing put on an anxious front upon hearing Wang Shoucai’s reply.

“Are you trying to fool me, Mr. Wang?”

“I believe you have misunderstood my words. Although I’m not capable of resolving the issue, a certain someone possesses the capability to help you.”

“Who are you talking about?”

“Ouyang Duo,” Mr. Wang replied with a bright grin.

“Are you talking about Ouyang Duo from Sunshine Corporation? The father of that insolent brat, Ouyang Qi, right?”

Wang Shoucai was taken aback by Nan Xing’s statement because he had brought Ouyang Qi up when they were talking about Ouyang Duo. In fact, Nan Xing addressed Ouyang Qi as the brat.

What exactly is going on?

“Yes. Although there may be hundreds and thousands of Ouyang Duo throughout the entire globe, the one and only Ouyang Duo who’s capable of resolving the issue is none other than the one from Sunshine Corporation.”

“How is he supposed to resolve the issue? Why don’t you tell me about it, Mr. Wang?”

“The reason behind the entire incident was the assessment report, right?”

“Yes! Those so-called experts and authorities turned their back against us and denied the authenticity of the report! They told the public we forced them into submission back then! However, the report had been produced through legitimate means! We have long passed the environmental assessment since years ago!” Nan Xing assured Wang Shoucai.

“Exactly! Once the assessment issue gets sorted out, the construction will definitely get the green light to proceed, isn’t it?”

“Theoretically, you’re right.”

“The minister from the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Resources Preservation of Vietnam used to study abroad back in the day. Previously, he was a close friend of a particular figure from China. They were considered brothers from different mothers. Throughout the years, the duo still stays in touch.”

Nan Xing finally figured out the relationship between the parties involved. “The figure you’re talking about is Ouyang Duo, isn’t it?”

“Yes. As long as Ouyang Duo procures the aid of the said minister, I’m sure the issue will be resolved in no time,” Wang Shoucai reassured Nan Xing.

“Do you think Ouyang Duo will do me the favor?”

“I’m pretty sure he will because the Ouyang family has always been on good terms with the Nan family.

Didn’t the members of the Ouyang family attended your grandfather’s birthday banquet?”

“Oh! Right! How did you manage to figure out their relationship?” Nan Xing asked in return.

“I used to be their schoolmate back in the day. Thus, I’m aware of their relationship as well,” Wang Shoucai replied with a bright grin.

“Alright! Thanks, Mr. Wang! I need to talk to my brother before making the decision. If there’s nothing else, I shall leave now.”

“Sure. I’ll see you again. I’ll finish my cup of tea before leaving.” Wang Shoucai got up from the couch and showed Nan Xing the way out of the suite.

Once Nan Xing walked out of the store, he called Nan Chen.

Nan Chen told Nan Xing to meet him at the stadium. His brother wanted him to get changed into a set of sports attires before heading over because they would have a round of football soon.

Nan Xing had no intention to make a trip home. He headed over to the stadium as instructed and got someone to deliver him a set of sports attires and a pair of shoes.

He had been playing on his own for a little more than an hour before Nan Chen showed up in the stadium.

It was a spacious stadium, yet both of them were the only ones available. They could talk about all sorts of things without the concern of being eavesdropped on.

“Chen, you scolded me in front of others deliberately. Am I right?”

“No! I have always wanted to teach you a lesson!” Nan Chen replied callously before launching the ball in his brother’s direction.

Nan Xing intercepted the ball and kicked it back in Nan Chen’s direction.

“Does that mean you’re suspecting me? Do you really think I’m the one who’s trying to drag you down?”

“I’m pretty sure you’re not the one because you’re a person without any ambition. In fact, you’re a kind person who would never do that to me.”

“If that’s the case, why did you scold me?”

“You’re the person in charge of the project. Since everything has fallen apart, who else should I take things out on?” Nan Chen asked him in return.

“I don’t mind bearing the consequences of my neglection, but you shouldn’t have accused me of orchestrating the plan!”

“That’s merely an act to deceive our foes. Let’s put that aside for the time being. What did Wang Shoucai tell you?”

Nan Xing was taken aback by Nan Chen’s words because he had never mentioned anything about his meeting with Wang Shoucai. “How did you know he was the one who had approached me? Did you send someone to tail me?”

“I didn’t send anyone to tail you, but I have sent a few to tail Wang Shoucai.”

“Huh? Why do you want to tail him?” Nan Xing was shocked.

“Grandpa and I think a key figure of the corporation was the one behind the entire incident. Therefore, I have sent a few of my men to keep an eye on the members of the board of directors, especially the ones who have engaged themselves in suspicious activities. There wasn’t anything suspicious about the others, but Wang Shoucai was the only one who had approached you,” Nan Chen explained.

“Oh, God! Grandpa and you are such capable men! How did both of you manage to hit the bullseye? I must say I’m impressed!”

“We ruled out the possibility based on the evidence we could get our hands on. What did Wang Shoucai tell you?”

Nan Xing thought of something interesting and asked, “Since you’re such a smart guy, why don’t you take a guess?”

Nan Chen signaled Nan Xing to take over the role as a goalie as he would attempt to shoot the ball.

“Why am I the goalie again? Shall we finish the conversation before carrying on?”

Nan Chen narrowed his eyes and replied, “He has presented a solution to you and wants you to regain my trust through resolving the issue. If he achieves his goal, you’re going to have to do him a favor in the future. Indirectly, he’s trying to win you over.”

“Oh, God! How did you manage to figure out the content of our conversation?” Nan Xing’s jaw dropped open.

“Isn’t it obvious?” Nan Chen enunciated.

“Hell no! That’s impossible!” Nan Xing screeched.

“Why? Isn’t it a piece of cake after ruling out the possibility?”

“How did you figure out the content of our conversation?”

Nan Chen orated, “The minute the news about our conflict becomes widespread, everyone within the corporation will be aware of the incident. I’m sure you’re aware of the power of the internet, do you?

Since Wang Shoucai had approached you, I’m pretty sure he wasn’t there to comfort you. Hence, it would be safe to assume that he has asked you out because he wished to present a solution to you. If he didn’t have a perfect solution, he would never have approached you when you were in such a foul mood unless he had a kink for being scolded in the face. He has always been known as a cunning man. Do you think he’ll resort to such a foolish action? Therefore, isn’t it a piece of cake?”

Although Nan Xing found Nan Chen’s words logical, he refused to acknowledge it was a piece of cake to rule out the possibility to the complexity behind the entire incident.

Chen might be the only one capable of ruling out the possibility as though it was an easy task. If anyone else including me had been put in his position, we would never have figured out the content of the conversation! Undeniably, there’s a huge difference in terms of our capabilities.

“Chen, I’m going to be impressed if you’re able to figure out the solution Wang Shoucai has presented to me!”

“If I’m able to figure out the solution he has presented to you, I want you to take things in hand and resolve it. Do we have a deal? “

“Sure!” Nan Xing agreed without a second thought.

“I need you to take it seriously!” Nan Chen requested.

“No problem, Chen! I’ll definitely take it seriously!” Nan Xing assured his brother.

Nan Chen nodded and told his brother, “Did Wang Shoucai tell you about the relationship between the Minister of the Ministry of Environmental Protection and Resources Preservation and Ouyang Duo? He told you to get in touch with Ouyang Duo because he can solve the issue on your behalf. Am I right?”

Nan Xing was utterly dumbfounded. His eyes widened in disbelief as he asked, “How did you figure that out?”

“This isn’t a mere guess anymore. I have gotten my men to run a background check on the suspicious parties involved and figured out their relationship after a series of investigations.”

“Are you serious? How did you figure out Ouyang Duo used to be the schoolmate with the minister from Vietnam?” Nan Xing expressed his confusion.

He felt as though his brother was a capable fortune teller since he managed to foresee the things that would be in store for the parties involved.
