Nan Zhiyan knew this was a novel world, and she was an insignificant, positive female supporting character who had secretly liked the male lead since childhood.
So, even though Nan Zhiyan did...
Chapter 27 Qualifications
Hearing this, Nan Wenqi stared at Nan Zhiyan with a serious look, and suddenly sneered.
"Ayan, then tell me why Master Uerlaf asked me which nursing home your mother is in, huh?"
Originally, he did not want to pursue the matter. After all, the Nan family was not qualified to attend the first birthday party of the Prime Minister's eldest grandson.
When Nan Wenqi learned that Lu Yanjing wanted to take Nan Zhiyan with him, he was naturally happy. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Even if Nan Zhiyan did nothing, as long as he went there and showed his face, he could take this opportunity to get close to the Prime Minister and make his position in the parliament more secure.
But he didn't expect that Nan Zhiyan would dare to disobey him again and lie to him.
"Tell me what you said to Master Ulraf. Did you say you couldn't go on Sunday because you were going to see your mother?"
Lu Yanjing asked Nan Wenqi?
Nan Zhiyan was slightly shocked. Why would Lu Yanjing ask Nan Wenqi about such a thing?
The unexpected change made Nan Zhiyan a little confused and his heart sank.
"Father, I..."
"You don't have to say anything more. This matter is settled."
Nan Wenqi did not ask any more questions. Although he was somewhat unhappy with Nan Zhiyan's disobedience, the most important thing now was the banquet at Lord Lingzheng's house.
"But you promised to let us see mother on Sunday."
"And I have indeed told Master Ulraf about my schedule for Sunday."
Feeling a tingling pain in the palm of his hand, Nan Zhiyan raised his head, met Nan Wenqi's gaze, and said these words word by word.
"Yes, father, you promised, and, and my sister..."
Nan Zhixing also became anxious, although he didn't quite understand what Nan Wenqi and Nan Zhiyan were talking about.
But it should be something that happened when he went to Qiu Lun. Although he didn't understand, Nan Wenqi subconsciously prepared to speak up for Nan Zhiyan.
“Pah.”
Nan Zhixing closed his mouth until he was slapped on the side of the face. His face was tilted by Nan Wenqi and just met Nan Zhiyan's slightly red eyes.
Nan Wenqi shook his hands, but his eyes did not look at Nan Zhixing, but at Nan Zhiyan.
He grabbed Nan Zhixing's hair again, pressed him in front of Nan Zhiyan, and leaned over to look at Nan Zhiyan.
He couldn't hit Nan Zhiyan. After all, he was the person he had chosen and trained personally. If he hurt him, there would be no second one.
"Ayan, I always thought that you were the smartest and most obedient among them. Don't let me down, okay?"
Nan Wenqi said it lightly, pressing Nan Zhixing's hand without releasing any strength at all.
It was as if they were not his children, but just soulless puppets controlled by him.
Nan Zhiyan was silent, looking at Nan Zhixing's bleeding mouth and his head pressed down by humiliation.
This is not the first time. No matter who among them makes a mistake, it is Nan Zhixing who is punished.
There was no other reason, Nan Wenqi just felt that if any traces appeared on her body, her value would be greatly reduced.
Nan Wenqi needs an in-law who can provide him with support, and he also needs a perfect heir.
Perhaps because Nan Zhixing was indeed not smart enough, the successor chosen by Nan Wenqi was actually Nan Zhiyan.
As the heir, Nan Zhiyan's image in public must of course be intact.
And this face is also the most powerful weapon to attract some innocent aristocratic boys.
Those letters are a good example. Nan Wenqi will choose a good husband for Nan Zhiyan, preferably one like their mother, with a good family background and easy to control.
His eyes swept over Bai Qingrou and Nan Rong who were watching the show behind Nan Wenqi. Nan Zhiyan suppressed the emotions rising in his eyes and lowered his head again.
"I'm sorry, father. I will listen to you."
His eye sockets were aching, but Nan Zhiyan didn't dare close his eyes, and tried hard to control his emotions.
After hearing Nan Zhiyan's obedient words, Nan Wenqi's expression improved a lot.
He raised his hand and let go of Nan Zhixing, then threw him aside casually like a rag.
Nan Zhixing fell to the ground, then stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and stood behind Nan Zhiyan in silence.
"Wenqi, if Ah Yan doesn't want to go, forget it. Let Ah Xin go. It's just right. It will also allow Ah Xin to show her face in front of Master Ulaf, right?"
Bai Qingrou listened to the conversation between the two. After she stopped gloating, she rolled her eyes, pulled Nan Xin and pushed her in front of Nan Wenqi with a smile on her face.
"By the way, Ah Xin can also mention Ah Rong. Isn't Ah Rong also in St. Derek's School now? Wouldn't it be better if he could also help Master Ulraf?"
Nan Zhiyan, this little bitch, didn't even cherish such a good opportunity and pretended to be reluctant.
"Mother, I don't..."
Nan Xin lowered her head and tugged at her clothes, wanting to say that she couldn't do it either, because she was timid, and she never wanted to argue with Nan Zhiyan.
"What trouble are you causing?"
But before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Nan Wenqi.
Glancing at his timid daughter in front of him, Nan Wenqi felt a little impatient and simply ignored her.
"How could she be qualified to attend such an occasion? Not everyone around Master Ulaf can go. What is Ah Rong's status? How can she compare with Ah Yan and Ah Xing?"
Nan Wenqi glared at Bai Qingrou. For the first time, he felt that this woman was somewhat inconsiderate.
Nan Zhiyan and Nan Zhixing are the natural heirs of the Taran family, and are therefore qualified to be sent to serve Master Ulaf.
Nan Rong and Nan Xin are just a pair of illegitimate children. If he dares to let anyone appear in front of Lu Yanjing today, I'm afraid he will lose his seat in the parliament tomorrow.
As soon as Nan Wenqi said this, Bai Qingrou and Nan Rong's faces instantly turned ugly.
What is their identity?
Nan Rong's eyes suddenly turned gloomy, and he looked at Nan Zhiyan and Nan Zhixing with jealousy and hatred in his eyes.
They are obviously all his father's children, why should we divide them into high and low status? Why should Nan Zhiyan and Nan Zhixing be superior to him?
"Wen Qi, what are you talking about? Ji Xun is also the illegitimate daughter of Marquis Xi Suo, how could she..."
"Shut up."
Nan Wenqi slapped Bai Qingrou again with his backhand.
"Marquis Xi Suo is not someone you can mention."
What a shameless woman! She doesn't even know whose illegitimate daughter Ji Xun is. How can she be the same as them?
Even if she was an illegitimate daughter, she was raised by Marquis Hiso personally. Marquis Hiso's preference for this illegitimate daughter was obvious to all.
The most taboo thing is for others to discuss Ji Xun's identity. If Bai Qingrou's words were to get out, how would Marquis Xisuo look at him?
Bai Qingrou covered her face and looked at Nan Wenqi in disbelief. Nan Wenqi actually hit her?
But before she had a chance to speak again, Nan Wenqi turned around and went upstairs.
After taking a look at Bai Qingrou, Nan Zhiyan took Nan Zhixing and went upstairs.
She wants to apply medicine to Nan Zhixing.
"Sister, I'm sorry."
Nan Zhixing squatted in front of Nan Zhiyan, with one side of his handsome face slightly swollen.
Because of Nan Wenqi's pulling, Nan Zhixing's hair became a lot more messy.
With red eyes and tears welling up in them, Nan Zhixing choked and cried out.
