Nuannuan returned to her bedroom and flipped open her laptop. Her fingers flew across the keyboard and a series of incomprehensible numbers appeared on the screen.
The number of windows on the computer increased rapidly. Nuannuan turned on the second computer that Second Uncle prepared for her. Her fingers continued to fly across the keyboards, and the number of windows kept increasing.
Nuannuan activated her supernatural ability and quickly browsed through the windows as the austerity in her eyes grew more and more prominent. After five minutes, she silently closed all the windows on her computer screens.
The next day, when Nangong Nuannuan accompanied Grandpa and Second Uncle to the private hospital owned by the Nangong family, Leng Jinpeng was talking to a doctor while Leng Qirui was sitting on the sofa like an obnoxious young master.
Other than Leng Jinpeng and Leng Qirui, there was also a large group of people from the Leng family here. The atmosphere felt a little awkward.
As she was not familiar with these people, Nangong Nuannuan did not greet them.
Meanwhile, when those people noticed the lack of branded logos on Nuannuan’s clothes, as well as Old Master Chi, who wore very ordinary clothes, their eyes were filled with disdain. They thought that these two were commoners who wanted to get close to the Leng family.
On the other hand, when Leng Qirui saw Nuannuan and Old Master Chi, he got to his feet with the help of his crutch even when one of his arms and legs were broken. The servants of the Leng family rushed forward to support him.
“Nice to see you, Grandpa Chi.”
Those who sat facing Old Master Chi and Nuannuan had no intention of welcoming them at all. When they saw the second-generation heir of the Leng family standing up personally, one of the women said, “Lil Rui, you’re still injured. Just sit down and talk. Why must you stand up?”
The voice was sharp and unkind, and it made anyone who heard her uncomfortable.
Nangong Nuannuan was about to retort, but Grandpa Chi patted her hands. Nuannuan swallowed the venom that she was about to spit out.
Leng Jinpeng, who was conversing with the doctor, also noticed the situation here. When he saw Grandpa Chi, he abruptly ended the conversation with the doctor and walked over. He gave Grandpa Chi a military salute. “Marshal!”
The Leng family, “…!!!”
After realizing that the old man who came in was no ordinary person, the people from the Leng family stood up one after another. Another woman who looked 70% similar to the woman who spoke sarcastically just now opened her mouth. “Big Brother, this is…”
Since Leng Jinpeng was not aware of the cold treatment the Leng family gave to Nuannuan and Old Master Chi just now, he said with great honor, “This is my teacher whom I’m greatly indebted to, Old Marshal Chi.”
The Leng family was shocked.
As a second-tier wealthy family with a military background, who had not heard of Old Master Chi Yuansheng?
Thus, everyone’s eyes lit up, while the woman who had spoken earlier lectured Leng Qirui instantly.
“Lil Rui, this is Old Marshal! Why didn’t you introduce him to us?” Then, he looked at Old Master Chi. “Old Marshal, Lil Rui is just being insensible by not introducing you to us and dragged us along in his insolence. I’m really sorry.”
As a person who stood for justice, Nangong Nuannuan glanced at Leng Qirui’s disdainful expression when she heard the woman’s words. Not caring if she was Uncle Leng’s relative, Nuannuan replied coolly, “You’re the insensible one, no? After all, Young Master Leng did stand up to greet Grandpa just now.”
After Nangong Nuannuan’s rebuke, the woman was embarrassed. Her face alternated between green and red as she felt humiliated by her own actions. Since she did not dare to rebut Nangong Nuannuan before knowing her identity, the woman merely smiled insincerely and replied.
