Chapter 585 Not Being Serious

“Don't your families go way back? Why does your dad want to do this to Nan Chen?” Ning Ranasked. “I'm not really sure, too. Maybe it's because Nan Chen likes you instead of my sister, Qing.He's always wanted Qing to marry him. In fact, that's what my whole family wants, including me.

Of course, my objective of letting Qing marry him is different from theirs. If Nan Chen were to marryQing, then you'll be available, and my chances will be increased.” Ouyang Qi was extremelystraightforward with his words and was not the slightest bit embarrassed by what he said.

"So?" Ning Ran prompted. “Will you let me sleep with you?”

“Get lost! Do you even know what you're talking about? Do I look like that kind of person who'll dothat?” Ning Ran raged.

"Why would you refuse? My dad's rich, and I'm the son of a rich family. Though I'm a little lacking interms of looks as compared to Nan Chen, I've got a better character than him. He's always puttingon a serious face and scolding others. I'm different. I always put on a bright smile.” After saying that,his lips widened into a grin, which made him look quite comical.

“I don't like you. And don't ever mention this matter again. Otherwise, I'm going to get mad,” NingRan warned sternly.

"Come on. Feelings can be developed slowly. Once you get to know me, you'll realize I'm actuallynot bad.”

“What are you trying to say? Is this it?” Ning Ran asked.

"Of course. I'm just trying to tell you to be careful. Since my dad wants me to do such a thing, histarget is naturally the entire Nan family and not Nan Chen alone. I heard them talking yesterday.Nan Xing was having a meal with Qing when he got attacked and thrown out of the building. I'mpretty sure my dad and my sister hired someone to do it, but I don't have any proof. Besides, I'mnot aware of many things since they don't believe me. Anyway, just be careful. You can just ignoreNan Chen. He can take good care of himself. What's more important is that you take care ofyourself and your children.

Ning Ran stared at him in silence, wondering if his words were true and what were his motives.“Don’t look at me like that. I'm telling you the truth.” Ouyang Qi frowned.

“There's something I'd like to ask you. Can I trust you?”

“Sure,” Ouyang Qi answered steadily.

"Why should I trust you?” Ning Ran questioned.

Ouyang Qi pondered before replying, “Because we're friends. Because I like you.”

“But you're a member of the Ouyang family.”

“Yes. That's actually rather troublesome. Of course, I won't harm my dad or my sister. I might not bea good person myself, but I don't think it's necessary for my family to do such things to harmothers. We're so rich. What's the point of doing that? Isn't it great enough to be able to have funevery day? Why make ourselves so busy? That's why I'm not obeying my father's instructions to takeadvantage of you,” Ouyang Qi explained.

“Take advantage? How?” Ning Ran asked, putting on her guard.

"My dad gave me a bottle of wine that has drugs in it. Once you drink it, you'll pass out for a longtime. During that period, I can strip you and have sex with you. I can even film and take pictures ofyou to let Nan Chen and the whole world know about it. Then, Nan Chen will be so furious that he'llwant to kill me, leading him to lose his mind. Like what my dad said, once a person loses his mind, itmeans he's not too far from breaking down. Besides, losing one’s mind is actually a form ofbreaking down,” Ouyang Qi said.

"So, that glass of wine earlier...” Ning Ran was frightened.

“I didn’t bring the bottle of wine my dad gave me. The one you drank earlier wasn't drugged,”Ouyang Qi assured.

“Really?”

"Yes. This is Hotpot City. How am I supposed to take you away if I drugged you in broad daylight?Besides, everything will be captured by the surveillance cameras.”

"Why are you telling me all this?” Ning Ran asked, still feeling doubtful.

“Didn't I tell you already? I want you to be wary of others.”

“So, the fact that I'm having a meal with you is because I trust you too much? Based on what yousaid, I should be wary of you?”

“No, you got into my car because you trusted me. That's why you're having a meal with me. It's truethat I'm Ouyang Duo's son. You're well aware of that, too. However, you came here with mewillingly. This shows that you trust me, which is also one of the reasons I didn’t take advantage ofyou. To be honest, my father had told me to make a move on you long ago. I only gave him a verbalpromise, but I never took any actions.”

Ning Ran scoffed, “Well, looks like I should thank you.”

“There's no need for that. I'm just reminding you to be careful in the future. It's best if you tell NanChen to assign two bodyguards to follow you around.”

Ning Ran was starting to believe in Ouyang Qi.

Perhaps Ouyang Qi's words were true. She still trusted him because he actually never did anythingwrong to her.

"So, that's all you wanted to tell me?”

“Yes.” Ouyang Qi nodded.

“Okay. I understand now. I've got another question for you. My daughter's been poisoned bysomeone. Is this your family’s doing?” Ning Ran asked as she fixed her gaze on him.

“Someone poisoned Erbao? How is she?” Ouyang Qi was shocked by the information.

"She's fine. Thankfully, she only tried a small amount of buttercream. If she actually took a full bite,she would've died. I just don't understand who could be so evil to harm a child. Is this your family'sdoing? Is it your father or your sister?”

Ouyang Qi shook his head. “I don't think it's them. They wouldn't do such things.”

“You know nothing about this?”

“I really don't. But I don't think it's their doing. They're not that evil. No matter how serious thematter is, it's still a conflict between adults. How could they possibly involve a child?” Ouyang Qisaid with a serious expression. Ning Ran, too, felt that he did not look like he was lying.

Of course, that could not prove the Ouyang family was innocent. After all, there was a biggerpossibility of Ouyang Qi not knowing about it.

"Okay. It's fine if you don’t know about it. Well, that's all I guess? Thank you for telling me all this,”Ning Ran thanked him sincerely.

"You're welcome. If Nan Chen marries another woman, you can consider me. I don't mind being athird party between you and Nan Chen.” Ouyang Qi had returned to his nonsensical self.

Ning Ran merely ignored him in response.

"Okay. Now, I need you to smash me with this wine bottle,” Ouyang Qi said, pointing at the emptywine bottle.

"Huh? Why?”

“I've got to give my dad an explanation, right? Well, I can just tell him I failed because you sawthrough my plan. Then, I can say you beat me up with a wine bottle. That way, I'll have an answer forthe outcome.”

“That's unnecessary, right? He's your dad, not your boss. If you fail, then you've failed. What couldhe possibly do to you?” Ning Ran found it quite ridiculous.

"Exactly! He's my boss! Though he’s my dad, he’s my boss as well. He's already frozen my creditcards. Currently, I'm relying on borrowing money from others to get by. The Lunar New Year'scoming soon. I've got so many meet-ups with my friends. If I'm broke, how am I going to pick upgirls and show off? To me, money is more important than my life. If you create some minor woundsfor me, my dad will take pity on me. Perhaps he'll unfreeze my card, and I'll have money again!”Ouyang Qi said with a look of misery.

Ning Ran had never heard of such theories in her life before.

“I can't do it! It's too dangerous! What if I hit you so hard that it gives you a concussion? What if youbecome dumb? I don’t want to be responsible for the outcome. I'm not doing it!” Ning Ran rejectedfirmly.

“If you don't hit me, I've got no choice but to hit you and make you pass out. Then, I'll sleep withyou. That way, I'll have something to tell my dad.”

“Don’t you dare!” Ning Ran shot to her feet.

“To be honest, I don't dare to. That's why it's better if you hit me. Come on. It's fine. I trust in yourskills.” Ouyang Qi stuck his head forward.

“You want me to hit you for real?”

"Go on!"
