Chapter 571 - 590 An Family Mansion (7)
Chapter 571: Chapter 590 An Family Mansion (7) Lin Mubai obviously had the same intention. Without waiting for the other to ask, he had already started speaking: "I always suspected that Nannan’s family background might be unusual, but I was very shocked and heartbroken when I found out today that she is the heir of the Nanqi Group. Although she downplayed the past she told me about, thinking back to when I was that age, I might not have been able to handle it like she did. So at that moment, I swore in my heart that in the future I would create a heaven for her to look up to, starting with this time in the Nanqi Group."
Lin Mubai was generally considered a relatively reserved person, and this was probably the first time his good friend Han Xiayang had seen him like this. Deeply shocked, he stared at the other party without blinking for a long time until he was willing to believe that everything he had just heard was true, not a fantasy or a mishearing. Everything was so real. Likewise, he was very shocked in his heart and could only mutter: "Mu Bai."
The other party once again lifted his somewhat shadowy eyes to gaze directly at him: "I also feel that this is very unlike myself, but today I somewhat couldn’t control my emotions. However, in front of her, I can’t show it too much, so I felt a bit depressed tonight and wanted to find you to talk about it."
Han Xiayang’s face was no longer filled with laughter but became extremely serious: "It’s okay. Everyone has a temper. I actually feel that the current you makes me feel a bit more real. The past you was too perfect, which only gave people an out-of-reach feeling, too much pressure."
"No, I am just an ordinary person too."
"Hmm, then what are you planning to do next? According to what you said, An Nan is from the An Family. From what I know, that An Ruiyang is no simple old man, and also that Xi Xilan, having been in such a high position for so many years, is unlikely to give up easily."
"Right, that’s also my concern. Nannan’s current condition isn’t just concerning herself, that’s her intention too, to avoid appearing as much as possible. But some matters require her involvement, and that’s what worries me..."
Having been good brothers for many years, Han Xiayang immediately caught the deeper meaning in the other person’s words: "You’re afraid of the dog being cornered and jumping over the wall."
Lin Mubai nodded quickly, his eyes full of a cold light: "Hmm, today I saw a dangerous light in that woman Xi Xilan’s eyes, so I’m worried she will make a move."
"This is indeed a big problem. So, have you thought about what to do?"
Lin Mubai shook his head slightly and continued to speak: "We are in the light, they are in the dark, and sometimes it’s hard to guard against. So my idea is to get rid of the problem once and for all."
"Then what’s your plan?"
This time, Lin Mubai didn’t hesitate, coldly throwing out four words: "Cut off the source."
Han Xiayang’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, with a trace of uncertainty in his voice: "Are you planning to make a move against the An Family?"
A cold smile continued to drift at the corners of Lin Mubai’s mouth: "The An Family? I don’t even regard them as significant. If they obediently do nothing, fine. But if they act, they shouldn’t regret my vengeance, Lin Mubai’s vengeance."
This side of Lin Mubai gave Han Xiayang a sense of familiarity. He recalled back in their days in the United States, whenever this man showed such an expression, it meant someone was going to be in trouble.
