After much deliberation, Barus decided to tell Nanxi the news that Sakun planned to assassinate Nan Zhenguo after successfully seizing power.
Nanxi had just come out of the shower and was sitting on the edge of the bed, drying her hair, pursing her lips and saying nothing.
"What's wrong, baby? Are you unhappy?" Baru asked, holding her little hand.
"No, I'm just a little worried about my dad. What he does and the people he comes into contact with are all too dangerous. Even though he can be annoying sometimes, I still can't help but worry about him."
Nan Xi was tangled up and choked up. "You said he wants so much power and so much money, what is he doing? Isn't it better to just live a peaceful life?"
Balu took the dry towel from her hand and wiped her hair. "Are you stupid? Men pursue power and money just like women pursue eternal youth. It's innate."
Nan Xirun glared at him, "What a lousy analogy, really."
"Okay, if you're worried, just tell him and let him keep an eye on it. Like you said, we should try to avoid being around him as much as possible.
No matter how bad I am, I am still a son-in-law. I can't really fight with my father-in-law, right?" Baru dried her long hair and got out of bed to get a hair dryer.
"Don't use the hair dryer. I don't want to sleep yet. Bring the essential oil and apply it on me." Nanxi sat cross-legged on the edge of the bed, waiting for Baru to serve her.
She had become accustomed to a life where she had only a mouth and no hands in front of him.
The man came over with the essential oil, poured it into his hands, and slowly rubbed it into her half-dry hair with the warmth of his palms, massaging it, and finally combing it carefully.
Nanxi waited until he finished before getting up and going out with the phone.
Dad always talked about him in a roundabout way, and she didn't want him to feel bad when he heard it, so she simply went outside to make a phone call.
Nan Zhenguo was working in the study of his villa in Naypyidaw when he suddenly received a call from his daughter. A flash of surprise crossed his eyes.
"Xixi, what's wrong?"
"Dad, is there someone named Sakun who wants to see you today and ask for a loan from our bank?" Nanxi went straight to the point.
Nan Zhenguo was a little surprised. He put down the pen in his hand and raised his eyebrows. "What's wrong?"
"Baru said that person wants to harm you. Once he takes our money and successfully takes power, he will attack you."
Nan Zhenguo's face remained expressionless, and even his tone was extremely relaxed, "Not bad, you still remember to worry about the family business."
"Dad, I'm grown up." Nanxi emphasized with a nasal hum.
"Okay, I get it. Don't worry, your dad won't fall into the same pit twice."
"Okay, then Dad, take care of yourself and don't get too tired." Nanxi sighed, but ultimately didn't say the words to persuade him to stop. She knew her father wouldn't listen to her at all.
"Okay, I understand, Xixi. You can go back to China as soon as you're done playing. I'll take care of the Shen family as soon as I have time. Don't worry."
"Okay, Dad, then... goodbye..." Nanxi pursed her lips and hung up the phone.
I don’t know why, but I always feel uneasy.
It should be said that since the last time she saw her father until now, every time she thinks of these things, she always feels anxious, and she doesn't know what's wrong...

Nan Zhenguo hung up the phone and there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." He rubbed his eyebrows and said lightly.
"Sir, something bad has happened." Uncle Li ran in in a panic.
Nan Zhenguo raised his eyes unhappily, "What's wrong?"
"Sir, the young master is here and is sitting in the living room downstairs." Uncle Li's lips were shaking as he spoke. Truly, the look in the young master's eyes just now was too scary.
Nan Zhenguo narrowed his dark eyes, "Why are you panicking? Send the servants away. I'll go down and take a look."
Nan Zhenguo came out of the study on the second floor and walked down the stairs calmly. He looked at Nan Suzhi who was still sitting in the wheelchair and pursed his lips.
"Suzhi, are you back?"
Nan Suzhi smiled faintly, "Dad, you are really cruel, huh?"
Nan Zhenguo scoffed and sat on the sofa across from him. "Suzhi, I warned you long ago not to dwell on things that don't belong to you. It's you who overestimated your own abilities and sought death. How can you say I'm cruel?"
"Dad, I just can't understand. How am I inferior to that loser Chen Ce? You would rather marry Luanluan to him than to me. How am I inferior to him? You should know that I am the man who loves Luanluan the most in the world."
Nan Zhenguo's expression changed slightly. "I'm sorry for Xixi in the Shen family's matter. I misjudged the situation. I've already explained it to her. My daughter won't blame me.
After that incident, I thought it through. Shen Ce is indeed not worthy of Xixi, but you are even less worthy. Our Xixi, if she wants to marry, she will marry into a family at the top of power."
Nan Suzhi's gold-rimmed half-frame glasses were covered in bloodshot blood, with a hint of sinisterness and a hazy mist lingering around them. His true emotions could not be seen clearly, and he smiled with a pursed lip.
"Is this why you want to support Angsu? You want Xixi to marry into the Angsu family and give birth to an heir with Nan family bloodline. Then, you will support the grandson with the surname Nan to take the throne?"
Nan Suzhi used a question, but his tone was extremely firm.
He knew too well this cold-blooded and almost unpopular adoptive father. All he had in his heart was an extreme pursuit of power and money. In his eyes, nothing could not be sacrificed in order to achieve his goals.
Nan Zhenguo lit a cigar, took a puff, and then held it in his hand, looking at Nan Suzhi from a distance, without saying a word. Or rather, he simply didn't bother to speak.
"Dad, I didn't come back this time to argue with you, nor did I want to ask you for an explanation. I came to beg you."
Nan Suzhi pushed his glasses up with his slender fingers and looked at the man opposite him solemnly.
