Chapter 145: Only She Can Save the Nan Family

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In the blink of an eye, Murong Qiao entered university and started a free and colorful life.

But on the other hand, the Nan family’s situation was worsening day by day. Nan Kang, who used to not have to worry about business at all, now had a deeper frown on his face.

Hearing the secretary’s obviously disappointed voice on the other end of the phone, Nan Kang felt his temples throbbing again, making his head hurt.

“Got it.” Nan Kang hung up and released the suppressed sigh in his chest.

He couldn’t even count how many clients had terminated their contracts with him.

During this period of time, things were not going well for the Nan family. They repeatedly encountered obstacles in their business. The friendly partners of the past also changed their att.i.tudes one after another. They even disregarded their past relationship and directly canceled their cooperation with the Nan family.

It was as if a skysc.r.a.per had collapsed and Nan Kang was the only person under it.

It was not just the company. During this period of time, nothing about the Nan family went smoothly. It was as if—someone was deliberately suppressing the Nan family.

However, Nan Kang did not find any traces, so he could only attribute it to the Nan family’s bad luck.

There was a knock on the door.

“Come in,” Nan Kang said wearily.

Nan Hao walked in from outside and stood in front of Nan Kang silently.

Nan Hao more or less knew about the Nan family’s bad situation, so when he saw his father like this, he couldn’t help but be silent.

“You’re aware of the situation at home during this period.” Nan Kang looked at his youngest son with pain and helplessness in his eyes. “I need you to do something.”

After saying this, he paused for a moment. He pursed his lips and stopped talking, as if he had made up his mind.

Nan Hao did not speak either, waiting for his father to speak.

“Ask Nan Qiao for help.” In the silence, Nan Kang’s words sounded especially powerful, yet helpless.

With the Nan family’s current situation, maintaining the company had become much more difficult.

Looking around, Nan Qiao, who had returned to the Murong family, was the best choice. Even though Nan Kang felt embarra.s.sed and did not want to admit it, he still said it.

As long as Nan Qiao agreed, with the Murong family’s strength, it would be easy for them to rise up again. At that time, all their problems would be solved.

“I’m not going.” Hearing that he had to beg Nan Qiao, Nan Hao subconsciously frowned and retorted.

Hearing Nan Hao’s words, the humiliation and unbearable feeling in Nan Kang’s heart seemed to have been dug out and exploded.

“You must go!” Nan Kang suddenly raised his voice and shouted. His aura was dispirited and shocking.

“If not you, then who else? Do you want me to go instead?” He said to Nan Hao in a stiff tone. “I don’t care what you think. The Nan family needs Nan Qiao now!”

After saying this, Nan Kang didn’t care about Nan Hao’s reaction and asked him to leave.

Nan Hao pursed his lips and stood outside his father’s study. He was indignant, but he did not dare to say anything in the face of his father’s anger.

He didn’t like Nan Qiao at all, but because of Nan Kang’s orders, Nan Hao had no other choice.

Thinking of Nan Qiao, Nan Hao only knew that she was studying at Hui University, but he didn’t know any specific information about her. He frowned in annoyance as he thought about it.

It was Sat.u.r.day, and a day without cla.s.ses was inevitably pleasant.

Most of the girls stayed in the dormitory and planned on how to spend the day. Just then, they realized that someone had posted a photo on the forum, saying that a very handsome boy was standing below the dormitory building.

Handsomeness was always the theme that attracted girls. When the female voices saw this message, they looked down from the window and saw their target at a glance.

The boy stood downstairs in casual clothes. His sweater accentuated his tall and good-looking figure. He stood there and looked at the dormitory door with a calm expression and focused eyes. His neatly styled short hair was being blown by the wind, and a few strands of hair on his head curled up disobediently. It made him look a little childish and lively.

He lowered his head slightly and stood there against the light like a scenery. The golden light enveloped his body and dyed his eyelashes with a faint layer of gold. The corners of his mouth curled up into a smile, masking the cold aura he exuded.

Seeing the handsome man standing downstairs, many people could tell that he was waiting for someone.

“This handsome man is obviously waiting for his girlfriend. I wonder what kind of beauty is worthy of this guy.”

“I think so too. I guess someone’s boyfriend is here to pick her up.”

“To have such a handsome boyfriend, this person’s luck is too good.”

Everyone was talking about the boy downstairs, and Nan Hao, who had been standing at the door looking for Nan Qiao, was already a little impatient.

But when he thought of his father’s orders, he suppressed his thoughts and stood there to wait for Nan Qiao to come out.

Murong Qiao had just returned from outside and immediately saw Nan Hao, who was standing at the door and causing a commotion.

She looked at Nan Hao in surprise. She did not expect him to appear here. She immediately quickened her pace and was about to enter the building, but in the next second, she met Nan Hao’s searching gaze.

Nan Hao found his target and immediately walked towards Murong Qiao.

No matter how fast Murong Qiao was, she couldn’t be faster than Nan Hao, who was blocking the door.

“I’m looking for you.” Nan Hao blocked Murong Qiao’s path and looked at her to explain his purpose.

But Murong Qiao didn’t care what Nan Hao said or why he was looking for her. Just seeing him here, Murong Qiao was upset and didn’t want to have anything to do with him.

“I’m going back to the dormitory. Please move aside.” Murong Qiao’s voice turned cold as she looked at Nan Hao, who had no intention of moving aside.

When the others saw that Nan Hao had made a move, they followed him. They thought that the boy was planning to confess on the spot.

Nan Hao didn’t expect Murong Qiao to have such an att.i.tude when she saw him. Seeing how uncooperative Murong Qiao was, Nan Hao hated her even more, but he hadn’t finished what he needed to do.

“It’s very important.” Nan Hao could only emphasize again, hoping that Murong Qiao would be more cooperative.

If not for the fact that everyone around them was looking in their direction, Nan Hao would not have dawdled like this. However, this was clearly not a good place to talk.

Murong Qiao’s mood worsened when she saw that this person was still following her.

“No matter how important it is, I’m not interested. Please move aside.” Murong Qiao looked at Nan Hao coldly.

She felt that she had nothing to say to the Nan family. Now that Nan Hao was pestering her, Murong Qiao was very annoyed.

Moreover, what happened with He Qian last time was still fresh in Murong Qiao’s mind. It was hard to guarantee that it wouldn’t be a trap like last time.

After saying that, Murong Qiao didn’t care what Nan Hao wanted to do. She directly walked past him and was about to enter the dormitory building.

Anyway, the other party wouldn’t be able to follow her into the female dormitory. However, as soon as she took a step, she felt a tug on her wrist.

“You can’t leave!” In a moment of desperation, Nan Hao grabbed Murong Qiao’s wrist.

Murong Qiao frowned and looked at Nan Hao, feeling that this person was unreasonable.

“Let go of her.” Suddenly, an external force pulled Murong Qiao’s body and helped her escape Nan Hao’s control.

“Huo Yichen?” Murong Qiao looked at the person who suddenly appeared in front of her in surprise.

“How’s your wrist?” Huo Yichen responded. He first glanced at Murong Qiao’s wrist, which had been held by Nan Hao just now. Seeing that there was nothing wrong, he turned to Nan Hao. “What are you doing?”

Seeing that Murong Qiao was protected by Huo Yichen, Nan Hao realized that he couldn’t force Murong Qiao to stay, so he had to soften his att.i.tude and explain the situation.

However, it was still the same excuse. It was the family matter of the Nan family..
