Chapter 145: Chapter 145: Nangong Han's Psychological Shadow!
On the other hand, Nangong Han had arranged countless matters today and had also settled a batch of people who had rushed over from Forty-nine City.
By now, he was almost desperate to have Song Yun vanish from this world!!!
Over half of the companies under the Ouyang family's name were in his control, and with this move, he had suffered colossal losses!
Just as Nangong Han was pondering when to make his move, his phone rang.
"Nangong Han, I heard some punk got the better of you?"
After hearing this, not a single thought of rebuttal rose in Nangong Han's mind, and he said helplessly, "Yi Wenbiao, are you calling to mock me?"
"Hahaha, Young Master Nangong has lost before, but when has he ever been afraid!" Yi Wenbiao said with a laugh, "I'm already in Magic Capital, aren't you going to host me?"
Stunned by these words, Nangong Han considered that the Yi family was also a well-known clan in Forty-nine City, ranking in the top ten. What could be the reason for the Yi family's heir to reach out to him at this time?
"Brother Yi, if you're trying to persuade me to let go of my grudge, then it's better we don't meet."
Nangong Han fell silent for a moment before saying this.
"Rest assured, I'm just here to keep company with a heartbroken man."
Yi Wenbiao said, "I've already booked a private room at the Magic Capital Times Club, come over now."
After the conversation, the caller hung up, and Nangong Han decided to meet with the heir of the Yi family after some thought.
Upon arriving at the club's entrance, an assistant brought by Yi Wenbiao personally guided him to the door of a private room.
Pushing the door open, Yi Wenbiao was already there, with seven or eight girls, all internet celebrities and top-tier stars.
"Let me introduce everyone, this is Nangong Han from the Nangong family. Your task tonight is to keep him company, got it?"
"President Yi~ don't worry~ All the sisters are professionals~"
An internet celebrity cooed in a childlike voice.
Yi Wenbiao laughed and loudly smacked the woman's buttocks, proclaiming, "Tonight, whoever gets to leave with Young Master Nangong, I'll personally pay for a place for her to settle down in Magic Capital!"
"Ah~ President Yi is so generous~"
"Young Master Nangong, let's drink a love cup together~"
"I'll give you a leg massage to help you relax~"
A Magic Capital apartment instantly pushed the atmosphere to a peak, as everyone knew an apartment there could easily cost millions, and what they'd be giving up was merely one night. They understood perfectly the high reward for the low cost.
Nangong Han found himself helplessly sandwiched among the women and said, "Brother Yi, what did you really invite me here for?"
"Tonight we talk only of pleasures of life, none of that vexatious business!" Yi Wenbiao was the first to wrap his arms around a star and said, "Little sister, come with me tonight?"
"We'll do as big brother says~"
"Wait a minute!"
Nangong Han's phone rang, he signaled for the crowd to be quiet, and after answering carefully asked, "Auntie, what's the matter?"
"Your uncle has gone to Magic Capital."
"Uncle has come to Magic Capital???"
Hearing this, Yi Wenbiao frowned, wasn't Nangong Han's uncle none other than Cheng Liguo?
What was he doing in Magic Capital at this critical juncture?
While he was contemplating this, Nangong Han had already hung up and immediately dialed Cheng Liguo's number.
At that moment, Cheng Liguo was enjoying a family dinner at the Ye family with Song Yun and the rest.
As he was chatting with Song Yun about the current situation, his phone rang.
Cheng Liguo looked at the caller ID with some displeasure.
Hmph, he had not been in town for a day before someone reported to the Nangong Family, but this played right into his hands.
"Little Han, what do you need from me?"
Cheng Liguo asked in an even tone, a stark contrast to the cheerful demeanor he presented while chatting with Song Yun just moments before!
At the other end of the phone, Nangong Han was very nervous. After all, he seldom contacted this uncle on usual days, and given that his uncle was the secretary to the elder Mr. Ouyang, he held a high position with an aura that left him feeling intimidated long after each encounter.
Thus, over time, it almost became his psychological shadow.
"Uncle... I heard from Auntie that you arrived in Magic Capital today? Why didn't you contact your nephew in advance so I could prepare?"
Cheng Liguo's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness upon hearing this; he had never expected that it would be his own wife who revealed his whereabouts!
Everyone knew his position was high, but there were also many eyeing it, waiting to replace him—one wrong move could mean game over!
Pondering this, Cheng Liguo felt somewhat irritable and said indifferently, "I'm in Magic Capital on official business; do I have to check whether there are members of the Nangong Family everywhere I go?"
"Then your Nangong Family's connections are really too extensive."
This remark made Nangong Han shudder with fear.
After all, when his uncle brought his aunt back to her maiden family, he was the ruthless man who sat at the top and wouldn't even give the Nangong family head the time of day. Nangong Han spoke with a trembling voice, "No no no... I simply wanted to invite my uncle for a casual meal... nothing more."
Cheng Liguo thought for a moment, deciding to act as if he knew nothing and indirectly give Nangong Han a nudge.
He spoke up, "Give me the address, I'll be there shortly."
"Great! Then this nephew will eagerly await the honor of his uncle's presence!"
Nangong Han said excitedly, clutching his fist tightly and taking a few deep breaths to steady himself after hanging up the phone.
Meeting with an influential figure like his uncle was an opportunity to foster their relationship. Today I invite you for a meal, tomorrow I dine at your place, gradually building up momentum, right?
At the Ye family's, Cheng Liguo put down his phone and apologized, "Sorry, I have another dinner arrangement soon and will need to leave early."
"No problem, Secretary Cheng, please go ahead with your affairs,"
Mr. Ye said with a smile, "I'll arrange a car for you to take care of your transportation in Magic Capital."
Cheng Liguo nodded without refusal.
He took the car and drove toward the restaurant Nangong Han had booked.
At that moment, Nangong Han was standing at the restaurant's entrance, full of anticipation, with Yi Wenbiao, who had accompanied him, by his side.
Soon, the car carrying Cheng Liguo arrived at the entrance. The door opened, and Nangong Han moved swiftly, guarding the roof of the car to prevent his uncle from bumping his head as he emerged.
"Uncle, I know you like Cantonese cuisine, so I specially chose this place," Nangong Han said, trying to please him.
"You're thoughtful."
After getting out of the car and seeing Yi Wenbiao, Cheng Liguo was visibly taken aback—why had the Yi family gotten involved?
"Secretary Cheng, long time no see. We must have a few extra drinks tonight,"
Yi Wenbiao approached warmly, clasping Cheng Liguo's hand with a smile.
Cheng Liguo, who had weathered many storms, was a master at changing his expression in an instant.
He patted Yi Wenbiao on the shoulder with a cheery voice, lightly reprimanding, "There's no rule about making a guest wait outside; come on in, come on in."
Inside the private room, Nangong Han busied himself placing dishes in front of his uncle with serving chopsticks, and quickly refilled his glass whenever it was empty.
"Uncle, I only found out about your arrival in Magic Capital just before; I hope you won't hold it against me."
"But it's true, once you are in Magic Capital, you should at least tell me, or else when I go back to Forty-nine City, I am sure to be lectured by my father again."
