Chapter 1025: Knot
Nuannuan was in front of Old Master Nangong and both of them were looking at Old Master Chi at the same time.
Therefore, Old Master Chi looked at Nuannuan’s expectant gaze, as well as the warning and unwillingness on Old Master Nangong’s face. He chuckled and exclaimed, “Alright, since all of you welcome me, I’ll go with you!”
The men from the Nangong family, “…”
Did anyone mention that they welcome him?!
“That’s great.”
After saying that, Nuannuan turned to Chi Zeyao and asked, “Second Uncle, you just fell sick yesterday. Grandpa won’t be home, so I’m worried about you. Why don’t you come with us? I can perform acupuncture on you in Jiang District.”
Chi Zeyao could already tell that the Nangong family men were bursting with vigor and all of them looked like they could not wait to skin Chi Yang alive. Hence, after Nuannuan finished speaking, Chi Zeyao smiled warmly. “Sure.”
The men from the Nangong family, “…”
So, how were they supposed to scare that pig trotter in Jiang District now?
“Then, go pack your things. We still have time anyway. Since we’re going by a private plane, it doesn’t matter if we take off a bit later.”
“Okay,” Chi Yuancheng and Chi Zeyao said in unison. Then, they happily turned around and went home to pack their clothes.
The men from the Nangong family, “…”
Nuannuan turned around only to see the resentful men from the Nangong family, led by Old Master Nangong.
“Eh? Grandpa, why is everyone looking at me like that? Don’t you want Grandpa Chi and Second Uncle Chi to go to Jiang District?”
Looking at Nuannuan’s innocent and adorable expression that screamed ‘moe moe’, the men of the Nangong family shook their heads.
“How could that be? Grandpa and Chi Yang’s grandpa have been friends for decades. Why would I be unhappy about them tagging along?”
Although he hated Old Man Chi to the core, he still had to act like the kindest grandfather in front of his granddaughter.
Then, Nuannuan looked at her uncles and brothers.
Nangong Shu said, “Actually, we heard that Zeyao fell seriously ill yesterday. Nuannuan, isn’t it bad to tire Chi Yang’s second uncle with the journey? Shouldn’t patients get more rest?”
“Uncle, you don’t know how seriously ill Second Uncle is this time. To be frank, I wanted to tell Grandpa yesterday that I plan to bring Second Uncle along this time, but I thought that if Second Uncle left with me, Grandpa Chi would be alone at home. That’s why I invited Grandpa Chi along.”
“Hehe, I see. Then let’s bring them along and we’ll go there together. After all, our two families have a good relations.h.i.+p.”
Nuannuan nodded happily and said, “Okay. Grandpa, Uncles, wait a moment. I’ll go in and check on Grandpa Chi and Second Uncle Chi.”
“Okay, okay.” The Nangong family men nodded collectively.
It was only after Nuannuan entered that they collectively stopped smiling.
Seriously… The brighter the smiles on their faces, the tighter the knot was in their hearts!
However, Nuannuan was the little princess that they had taken great pains to acknowledge. They must not make Nuannuan think that the people in the family were petty and consequently, obstructing her from doing whatever she wanted.
However, Old Master Nangong jotted this down in the list of favors Old Master Chi owed him. Nangong Shu did the same on Chi Zeyao.
When Nuannuan returned to the Chi residence, Old Master Chi and Second Uncle Chi were asking the servants to help them pack up. Seeing Nuannuan enter, Chi Zeyao could not hide the smile that danced at the corners of his eyes.
“Nuannuan, you’re long aware that your family doesn’t want us to go to Jiang District, right?”
