Chapter 76: How to Approach Love

Chapter 76: How to Approach Love

Lord Rong Five chuckled and said to Nan Huang, "The person across from Uncle Dai is from the Nan family of South City."

"Nan's family?"

Nan Huang wanted to take a look, but Lord Rong Five held her shoulder back. His strong arm rested on her slender shoulder as he whispered, "Nan Tuo has been alive for over forty years without a son. To have a son, he adopted this godson. He's a few years older than Nan Zhu, Nan Tuo's wife. Originally surnamed Chen, he changed it to Nan and is now known as Nan Yingcheng."

"The second branch of the Nan family has only three members: Nan Tuo, Nan Yingcheng, and Nan Zhu. It's quite a coincidence that all of them have come to West City, and you've encountered them all."

Nan Huang asked, "What are they doing in West City?"

Lord Rong Five smiled and said, "Little one, you've asked the right person. Besides me, probably no one else knows the purpose of their trip to West City."

Nan Huang looked up at him, and he looked back at her up close. Her serious expression as she waited for an answer was truly adorable.

Suppressing the urge to hug her and kiss her, Lord Rong Five tousled her hair. Nan Huang pushed his hand away to maintain her hairstyle.

"For the sake of a piece of bread in West City." Lord Rong Five said casually, "It's for the water and electricity infrastructure development in West City."

Nan Huang's eyes flickered.

"In fact, it's not just the Nan family that's interested in this 'bread,' the Rong family is also involved. And by Rong family, I don't mean me," Lord Rong Five gestured to his long legs. "It's the Rong family, not to be confused with me. We're not on the same side."

Nan Huang asked with interest, "So, are you planning to get a piece of this 'bread'?"

Lord Rong Five nodded and looked at her small face closely. He playfully poked her nose, "Of course, I have a gold-swallowing beast at home, and I need to feed her."

Nan Huang gently pushed away his hand that touched her nose.

"So, you've been quite busy lately."

"Even if I'm busy, I still have time to spend with my little one."

Nan Huang avoided his eyes, turned her face to listen to the voices behind.

Nan Yingcheng's voice lowered, "Xie Yuchang, back then, you looked down on me and suppressed me. Now, look at yourself. What a sight. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. You used to be proud of your calligraphy, but now you can't even write properly. With you like this, do you still think the Nan family can help the Xie family?"

Nan Yingcheng's tone became bold and arrogant. "But, Xie Yuchang, you're mistaken. Our relationship with the Nan family is not from the second branch but from the main branch."

The tone of Nan Yingcheng's voice suddenly became wild and unrestrained. "However, the main branch of the Nan family is no more, completely gone! What gives you the right to think that, with a token, the Nan family can help the Xie family?"

"Chen Yingcheng, you don't know your place. Who raised and educated you back then? Even if you don't recognize our favor, you shouldn't trample on us like this!" A middle-aged woman with considerable presence retorted angrily.

"Oh, is that so? Everything you've done, isn't it all for that useless Xie Ziran?" Nan Yingcheng turned to sit in a chair behind him, looking smugly at Xie Yuchang, who was limping. "Xie Ziran is a waste. You picked me up, but it was just to give Xie Ziran a stepping stone. Everything I do is wrong in your eyes, but oh, Xie Ziran is different. Whatever he does is praised and encouraged."

"Chen Yingcheng!"

"Enough!" Xie Yuchang pushed his wheelchair. "The Xie family may not be great, but we don't need this scoundrel's help. Wan Yu, let's go."

Bodyguards moved to intercept Xie Yuchang, but Nan Yingcheng watched them walk away and spoke from a distance. "I never thought I'd see Xie Yuchang in such a miserable state. Truly, how the tables have turned. I never expected this."

Nan Huang's hand holding the water glass tightened.

Lord Rong Five quickly released her fingers, allowing her to hold her own hand, and asked, "Aren't you going to help Uncle Dai with this situation?"

Nan Huang shook her head. She looked at Xie Yuchang's desolate figure. "I'm sure he doesn't want to see me at such a low point in his life."

No one wants to see their loved ones when they're at such a low point.

Nan Huang adjusted her emotions, released Lord Rong Five's hand, and gave him a sideways glance. "Nan Yingcheng is just like you, fond of calling himself 'Laozi' (a boastful term for oneself)."

Lord Rong Five was puzzled and his face turned sour. "How can I be like that scoundrel?"

Nan Huang turned her face away and remained silent.

Lord Rong Five suddenly embraced her, but when he looked again, she was already stifling her laughter.

"Caught."

Lord Rong Five thought to himself.

Nan Huang freed herself from his embrace. Having eaten so much, she was already full. She said, "I'm going home now. How are you going back?"

Lord Rong Five had a puzzled expression on his forehead.

"What do you mean, 'I'm going home, how are you going back'?"

"I'm going back to West City Garden. Aren't you going back to Grape Manor?"

Lord Rong Five was almost instantly infuriated. "Little one, are you trying to rebel?"

"...," Nan Huang asked casually, "What's wrong with us living separately for now? Isn't this how you're supposed to approach love?"

Lord Rong Five had another question mark in his mind.

Right, he was in a relationship with Nan Huang.

How should you approach love?

Thinking about it, he saw that Nan Huang had already gotten up, so he hurriedly followed. "Little one, are you playing tricks on me?"

Lord Rong Five sat in the co-driver's seat of the Wild Python, secured his safety harness, and fastened himself tightly.

Nan Huang checked the time; it was already 11 PM.

"Are you really coming with me?"

"Yes," Lord Rong Five said.

"Is your work not finished yet?" Nan Huang glanced at him again.

Lord Rong Five turned to her. "Huh?"

Nan Huang pulled up the handbrake and shifted gears. "Let's go to your company. I haven't been to your company yet. I want to take a look."

"To the company?" Lord

 Rong Five was bewildered.

He had never imagined that on the first night of confirming his relationship with Nan Huang, they would be going to the company.

Nan Huang actually drove to the branch office of the Rong Group in West City. When they arrived at the underground parking lot, Lord Rong Five didn't want to get out of the car.

"Five, come on, get out."

Lord Rong Five looked up at her with a pitiful expression. "Do we really have to go to the company?"

"Yes," Nan Huang nodded decisively.

Lord Rong Five struggled for a moment but found it futile. In the end, he let go of the safety harness and got out of the car.

By this time, everyone had already left the building, and the entire building was pitch black.

Lord Rong Five took Nan Huang's hand and headed for the elevator. After swiping his index finger on a scanner, the elevator started ascending to the top floor.

"Now that you're here, I'll introduce you to some of your man's business interests."

"...," Nan Huang responded.

"This building is the branch office of Rong Group. You need to distinguish between my Rong Group and the one in Imperial City." Lord Rong Five stood tall and looked like a CEO. "Outsiders can't tell the difference; they think there's only one Rong Group in Imperial City. In reality, there are two Rong Groups in Imperial City—one is mine, and the other belongs to others."

Lord Rong Five nodded and looked at his woman. "My Rong Group is much larger than the others'!"
