Chapter 606 Very Touched

Nan Zhengde took a sleeping pill and was able to have a restful sleep. He woke up in the morningfeeling refreshed.

While he was having breakfast, Chai Hua reported the new replaceings. “Master Chen's car has beenlocated, but there aren't any signs of damage on it.” “He's not in the car?”

“No. The local police also did not receive any report regarding this,” Chai Hua replied. Nan Zhengdetook a bite of his food. “Was the car parked normally?”

"Yes, it was parked on the wider part of a roadside.” “How far is it from where his car was parked towhere he wanted to go?” Nan Zhengde asked again.

“It's quite far; almost a hundred kilometers.” “How's the traffic?”

“The road is currently undergoing repairs, so there are traffic jams occasionally. It's difficult tonavigate on it.” Chai Hua took out his phone and pulled up a picture that his subordinates had senthim.

In the picture, Nan Chen's car was covered in yellow dust and filthy. Nan Zhengde said nothing ashe continued to have his breakfast. Chai Hua remained silent as well, for he knew that Nan Zhengdewas mulling over the matter.

“Mr. Nan, do not worry too much. As Master Chen's car is fine, that must mean he is fine as well,”Chai Hua comforted him in a gentle voice.

“There are a few possibilities. One is that Chen was stopped on the road and abducted. However,this is unlikely to have happened as there is traffic on the road. Kidnapping him is very risky as thechance of having someone witness it is high. Hence, they wouldn't choose this method,” NanZhengde analyzed.

Chai Hua nodded.

“The second possibility is that Nan Chen felt that driving there was taking too long, got on anothermode of transport, and was held hostage by someone.”

Chai Hua piped up, “A motorcycle. The road is undergoing repairs, so it's common for jams to occur.If it's a motorcycle, it would be a lot more efficient than a regular car.”

Nan Zhengde slammed the table and exclaimed, “Yes! Tell them to visit the nearby area and ask thevillagers and road repair workers if Nan Chen had purchased or rented a motorcycle locally. Tellthem to keep asking questions. A lead should come up.”

“I've already instructed them to do so,” Chai Hua said.

Nan Zhengde gave him a look of approval. As expected of the Nan family’s housekeeper. Chai Huaknew exactly what to do even without instruction.

“That's great.”

Nan Zhengde finished his breakfast, went for a walk, and headed to the garden for some Tai Chi.At ten in the morning, someone came to report that Ouyang Duo had come again.

“Let him wait. I'm going to get changed,” Nan Zhengde said.

He put on a traditional Tang suit and went to the living room.

Ouyang Duo rose from his seat. “Mr. Nan, how are you doing?”

“I'm doing very well. I was told that you were here when I woke up this morning. My employeesmust be unfamiliar with proper etiquette. They should have woken me up. Sorry to keep youwaiting, Duo,” Nan Zhengde replied with a smile.

“It's fine. I'm sorry for the sudden visit.”

Nan Zhengde hummed in response. “Have some tea, Duo. Is there something you need from me?”he asked as he stared at Ouyang Duo.

Ouyang Duo felt a bit daunted when he locked eyes with Nan Zhengde.

In all the times he had gone up against the Nan family, Ouyang Duo had always lost. Hence, he wasa little traumatized.

“I received some information, but I'm not sure if it's legitimate or not.”

"Oh? What is it?”

“I have a friend in Lightspring who knows that Nan Chen is in trouble. Do you think it's true that hehas fallen into someone's hands?” Ouyang Duo asked.

“It's true. Nan Chen has been unreachable for two days now. We've been looking for him but to noavail. How did your friend know about this?”

Ouyang Duo explained, “I'm not too sure how he found out. It seems like he saw Nan Chen's car.There aren't many in that small town that drive that kind of SUV. Someone managed to replace out thatthe car belonged to Nan Chen and deduced that something had happened to him.”

“In that case, can you ask your friend to do us a favor and check if Nan Chen is still alive or not?”Nan Zhengde asked calmly.

Ouyang Duo tentatively started, “I'm afraid he can’t do that. He was only guessing, after all. Whydon't you call the police? If the police get involved, I'm sure they can replace out everything.”

"We can't contact the police without endangering Nan Chen's safety. In addition, if news about NanChen being uncontactable spreads, the stocks will plummet, and Nanshi Corporation will descendinto chaos. We can't let outsiders learn about this.”

This was what Ouyang Duo had intended to say to Nan Zhengde, but Nan Zhengde beat him to it.Hence, Ouyang Duo had nothing else to say. Everyone understood what it meant, and now it wasalmost time for a showdown.

Ouyang Duo pretended to ponder for a moment. “That is true. So, what do you plan on doing, Mr.Nan?"

“Do you have a suggestion, Duo?” Nan Zhengde threw the question back at him.

"Since it will still take some time before any leads come up, you should take charge in Nan Chen'sstead quickly. Nanshi Corporation is such a large firm that it can't have no one at the helm.”

Nan Zhengde nodded. “That makes sense. However, there is currently no one suitable in the Nanfamily to take over Nan Chen's position.”

“Nan Xing can do it. They're brothers, after all. I think he'll be able to handle it.”

“Nan Xing is not capable enough to take up such a huge responsibility.”

“I think he can do it. A CEO doesn't have to do everything himself—he can just let his subordinatesrun things for him. You don't have to worry, Mr. Nan. Nan Xing is rather competent. But then, he'snot married yet. In China, it's tradition for one to settle down before working on their career. If hebecomes CEO now, I'm afraid many people will feel that he’s still not mature enough. But if he getsmarried, things will be different. If he marries my daughter, I'll be his father-in-law. As my son-in-law, he'll definitely be qualified enough to be the CEO of Nanshi Corporation. After all, SunshineCorporation is one of the best companies in the region.”

Ouyang Duo declared his intentions.

“Nan Xing and Ouyang Qing are to be married? Right now?”

"Yes. Once they are married, we'll all be a family. The two of them are already dating, and they'rebound to get married sooner or later. Since it's inevitable, we might as well get it done now. A manwill become more responsible once he has a family. The board of directors will also have more faithin Nan Xing.”

Nan Zhengde nodded vehemently. “I've been worrying about this. Now that you mentioned it, Duo,I think it'll work. After he gets married, you will be his backer. With someone like you to endorsehim, it won't be difficult for Nan Xing to take control of the situation. It's a good idea!”

“So, are you giving your approval, Mr. Nan?"

Ouyang Duo was overjoyed. He thought that Nan Zhengde would reject him and did not expectNan Zhengde to acquiesce so quickly.

"Of course I am. Why wouldn't I when you've thought of such a great plan, Duo? However, Nan Xingisn't in Flower City right now. I'll have to summon him back.”

Ouyang Duo was even more ecstatic. “This is rather sudden, so I think the marriage ceremony canbe held at a later date. We'll get them to register their marriage first, and then you can transfer thestocks you have on hand to Nan Xing, Mr. Nan. This way, Nan Xing can legitimately become thelargest shareholder and take over Nanshi Corporation.”

“Duo, I'm so grateful that you're being considerate of us. It's settled, then. I'll do as you have said.”Previous Chapter
