A Dish Best Served Cold (The Man In Rage) -
Chapter 750 Chen Nan's Feelings
Daughter of the King of Jiangdong, Chen Ao?
Young Mistress of the Chen family from Jianghai?
How could she be considered a regular family's kid with a background like that?
After Ye Fan heard all the nonsense, his eyes twitched. Then he raised his head to glare at Chen Nan hard.
When did this young lady learn to lie like that?
"Fan, what's wrong? Did you catch a cold? I minored in clinical medicine at university. Why don't you let me take a look?"
Chen Nan seemed to sense Ye Fan's staring, so she quickly turned over and looked at him.
Her beautiful eyes were smiley.
But there was a sense of threat in Chen Nan's voice.
Ye Fan seemed to catch her threats. If Ye Fan blew her cover, Chen Nan would spill the beans on his identity.
Ye Fan smiled helplessly and replied, "I'm fine. I just choked on water. Grandpa, that's right. Nannan is from a normal family, and there's nothing incredible about her folks." "Oh, I see," said Old Master Ye as he nodded slightly.
Ye Ya's wife and the others were somewhat disappointed to learn this.
They thought Chen Nan came from a rich and powerful family, and her son could get to climb up the social ladder and get ahead through her family's connections by marrying her. But from the looks of it now, it was a mere extravagant hope.
However, Ye Ya's wife didn't give up on Chen Nan.
After all, her stunning beauty was one in a million.
Despite her lowly family background, Chen Nan's good looks were enough to compensate for it.
"Haha, Nannan, it's okay. It doesn't matter what family you're from. If you land yourself a hubby who is as driven as my boy, you can work hard together and still succeed one day."
Ye Ya's wife kept matchmaking them and sounded as though Chen Nan was already her daughter-in-law.
"Mum, what are you saying? Miss Chen is being modest here. Do you really think she's a commoner? The city's government leaders dined with her at the restaurant yesterday. Why would they give her such a grand welcome if she was a commoner?" said Ye Jian as he rolled his eyes the moment he heard his mother's words.
What?
"Did she dine with the city's government leaders?"
My god, that's incredible!
"You must be someone really important!"
"Nannan, what business is your family into?"
Everyone in the Ye family was shocked to hear Ye Jian's words and looked at Chen Nan differently in an instant.
Even Ye Xi-Mei was somewhat surprised.
She glanced at Chen Nan before looking at her son with astonishment filling her heart.
Ye Xi-Mei sensed that Chen Nan came from a good family from the short time she spent with her.
But she merely thought Chen Nan's parents were either university lecturers or upper management at a bank. From the looks of it now, Chen Nan's family was so powerful it was beyond their imagination. At the same time, Ye Xi-Mei was puzzled.
How did her son get to know a girl from a rich and powerful family?
Chen Nan wanted to hide the truth about her family, but Ye Jian unexpectedly messed things up for her.
However, Chen Nan didn't bother to explain. Since they were unrelated to her, there was no point telling them more. Instead, it would only serve to cause trouble. She merely said her parents happened to be friends with those city government leaders, hence the lunch.
Although Chen Nan lied nonchalantly, there was already something different about the way everyone looked at her.
Ye Ya's wife's eyes were filled with fire and joy.
Even Old Master Ye liked Chen Nan more. He wanted her to become the Ye family's granddaughter-in-law even more intensely.
"Nannan, are you married yet?" asked Old Master Ye as he got right to subject finally.
Everyone instantly looked at Chen Nan anxiously waiting for her to reply.
Chen Nan shook her head and replied politely, "Grandpa, I just graduated, so I'm busy with work and haven't gotten married yet."
"Haha, That's good, that's good. You're such a motivated kid."
Everyone laughed merrily when they heard Chen Nan was single.
"What do you think about Jingzhou? Do you have plans to work here?" asked Old Master Ye cunningly. He didn't ask her what she felt about Ye Jian directly and went about obliquely bit by bit instead. Chen Nan gave it a thought and said, "Yup, I like it here. There's good scenery here, and it's centrally located and connected to all three provinces. Also, the Yellow River passes through here. It has bred many talented people and is a hotbed for culture. Of course, there are plenty of cities with beautiful scenery, but I like Jingzhou mainly because there's someone I will hold dear my entire life here."
Chen Nan's gentle voice sounded like a mountain spring flowing over slowly and sounded refreshing to the ear.
Her voice was filled with tenderness and endless love.
Chen Nan furtively glanced in Ye Fan's direction as she spoke.
Ye Fan quietly hung his head and sipped tea as though he didn't hear her.
No one noticed Chen Nan's actions.
Instead, what she said made Ye Ya's wife cocky.
Someone she would hold dear my entire life here?
Was she talking about Ye Jian?
Old Master Ye was delighted to hear this. He felt that there was a chance for marriage, so he asked, "Then Nannan, tell me what kind of husband you are looking for? Do you mind if he comes from a normal family? What about a place like Yeyang?"
Chen Nan shook her head and replied, "Anyone can be a hero, and people shouldn't be judged by their background. I don't care about his background or past experiences. It's fine as long as I like him." "That's good, that's good," chuckled Old Master Ye. A weight lifted from his heart, and he picked up the glass of wine before him and toasted himself.
"Nannan, since we are on the topic, I want to be honest with you. I like you a lot, so I hope you can be the Ye family's daughter-in-law. I wonder if you'd consider it?" said Old Master Ye. He finally came clean with his intentions.
Ye Ya and his wife instantly felt antsy while Ye Jian held his breath and all waited for Chen Nan's reply.
Chen Nan was startled and said, "Huh-Huh?"
She looked at Ye Fan before looking at Old Master Ye. Then she bit her lower lip as her heart fluttered and her face blushed crimson.
She hung her head and replied worriedly, "Grandpa, I...I think that's a bad idea. I don't want to get into Mu-..."
"Haha. Nannan, of course, it'll work. Since you have no objections, then it's settled. Let's pick a date to meet your parents and plan the wedding," interrupted Old Master Ye. The moment he saw how shy Chen Nan was, he immediately knew Chen Nan's intentions.
