Looking at the back of Chen Yang and Chen Chong as they left, Li Nan’s face was as deep and cold as ice.
Then, Li Nan suddenly thought of something else and hurriedly turned around to Xue Ting’s front.
“Are you alright?”
Li Nan looked at Xue Ting’s face.
At this moment, he only saw that a slap mark was still bright red on top of Xue Ting’s stunningly white, blown-out face.
Seeing this scene, Li Nan’s heart could not help but feel a pang of heartache.
At the same time, an intense anger burned wildly in his heart.
Although Chen Yang and Chen Chong both had the same Chen family bloodline flowing through their bodies as his own, it seemed obvious now that the other party did not take this to heart.
“I’m fine Young Master Nan. Thank you for taking up for me just now!”
A look of gratitude filled Xue Ting’s stunningly beautiful face.
Xue Ting was actually still very clear about her own identity.
Although she was the head of this Dragon City office, in front of those real Chen family’s children, she was just an ordinary subordinate!
But now, Li Nan had actually gone out and beat up those Chen Family’s sons and daughters for the sake of a subordinate like her, which made Xue Ting’s heart feel extremely moved!
“You are my person, of course I have to protect you!”
Li Nan looked at Xue Ting in front of him and said with a smile.
Hearing these words, a hint of scarlet actually flushed above Xue Ting’s stunningly beautiful face.
Originally, with Xue Ting’s strength, it was always her who had the upper hand.
However, when she heard Li Nan say such words this time, her heart was inexplicably a bit flustered.
However, this was only for a moment.
Then, Xue Ting suddenly thought of something else, and a trace of sadness rose above her stunning face.
“I’m grateful that Young Master Nan can stand up for me. It’s just that it’s not worth it to have formed a hatred with Chen Yang Chen Chong and the others because of this ……”
Xue Ting said with a sigh.
“A person as smart as you should know very well that it is not about this slap in the face whether or not you have formed a grudge with them. In fact, from the moment my surname is Chen, I should already be an enemy in their hearts!”
Li Nan said with a bitter smile.
Xue Ting sighed and didn’t say anything.
However, she knew that what Li Nan said was correct, because Li Nan’s appearance had moved the interests of certain Chen family’s sons and daughters.
Even now, the fact that Li Nan was being groomed by Chen Beichuan had made certain people sit up and take notice.
So, no matter what, Li Nan and Chen Yang Chen Chong and the others were destined to be on opposite sides.
“Actually, as far as I know, Chen Yang Chen Chong’s status in the family is also very limited, even if the position of the person in charge over in Yanjing this time is not your turn, it will definitely not be the turn of the two of them!”
Xue Ting thought of something and reminded.
Li Nan’s way of thinking about things now was also relatively more mature.
Hearing Xue Ting say this, he immediately understood the meaning of it.
“You mean to say that they are just standing up for someone else, and there should be someone else behind them?”
Li Nan voiced out his guess.
Xue Ting nodded.
“As far as I know, among the descendants of the Chen family today, the one with the highest prestige is actually your second uncle’s son, his name is, Chen Lingjun!”
“Chen Lingjun ……”
Li Nan repeated the name softly.
“Although I have only met this Young Master Jun a few times, but he gives off the impression of being extremely deep in the city. Not only that, this Young Master Jun had apprenticed to a high ranking person in the True Martial World some years ago and was extremely strong, even Elder Chen, had previously praised him for having the appearance of an emperor!”
Xue Ting said.
Hearing this, Li Nan couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.
“In that case, it does seem that this Chen Lingjun is more suitable than me to control the more important Yanjing.”
In fact, this was indeed Lai Nan’s true thought as well.
After all, this Chen Lingjun, not only had he lived in the Chen family since he was young and had been nurtured by the family for so many years, whether in terms of vision or insight, was definitely not something that Li Nan could compare to.
Moreover, the other party’s prestige in the Chen family was originally very high, plus the other party was likewise an extremely strong martial artist.
In comparison, the other party seemed to be superior to Li Nan in every way!
Such a person seemed to be a perfect candidate for the future head of the Chen Family.
This was something that even Li Nan had to admit.
“In fact, Young Master Jun was indeed originally one of the juniors that Elder Chen focused on cultivating. It’s just that later on, for some unknown reason, Elder Chen’s cultivation of Young Master Jun has become colder.”
“Why, wouldn’t it be because of me?”
Li Nan asked.
Xue Ting, however, shook her head.
“The timing does coincide, and many people in the family, indeed, think so. However, since I am in charge of the search for you, Young Master Nan, I know very well that Elder Chen’s attitude towards Young Master Jun is not actually directly related to you.”
Xue Ting said with great certainty.
“Oh?”
Li Nan instantly felt a little strange.
“Then why exactly is it?”
Since it wasn’t because of himself, then why would Grandpa suddenly become cold towards Chen Lingjun, who he originally held in high regard?
What exactly was the reason for this?
Xue Ting shook her head.
“I’m not really sure about that, but I always feel that Elder Chen seems to have some …… feelings towards Young Master Jun.”
Xue Ting looked as if she wanted to say something.
“Some what?”
Li Nan pursued.
“Fear!”
Xue Ting said in a cold voice.
Li Nan immediately frowned, somewhat incredulous.
In his eyes, his grandfather Chen Beichuan, who was the head of the Chen family, was definitely the kind of existence that could control the whole situation at all times, there seemed to be nothing in this world that could be difficult for him, nor was there anyone that could be put in his eyes.
Yet now, Xue Ting was telling Li Nan that his grandfather Chen Beichuan, who was the head of the Chen family, was actually fearful of a junior member of the Chen family!
This simply made Li Nan feel incredible!
“Actually, this is just a feeling I have, even I myself am not very sure, and if Young Master Nan had not asked, I would never have said anything to outsiders.”
Xue Ting explained again.
“However, it is true that Young Master Jun is interested in the position of family head. Young Master Nan will inevitably be confronted by him in the future, so it is better for Young Master Nan to be cautious!”
Xue Ting said with concern.
“Thank you for the reminder, I understand.”
Li Nan said indifferently.
Li Nan would not take the initiative to seek trouble, but if trouble came to him, he naturally would not sit around and wait for it to happen.
Who cares who he is!
“Well, there’s nothing more to do here, the injury on your face, it’s better to hurry up and have someone take care of it.”
Li Nan said.
“Okay.”
Xue Ting said, turned around and was about to leave straight away.
But when she took a step out, Xue Ting thought of something else and suddenly turned around.
Then, without any warning, her delicate red lips kissed directly on top of Li Nan’s lips.
For a moment, Li Nan’s mind went blank.
He did not expect that Xue Ting would suddenly do such a thing.
However, this feeling was still quite good.
It was sweet.
