Chapter 89 Chapter 089 "Your grandson is gay..."
Yian's background information is very complete, but the reason why no connection with Yan Nanxing can be found is because they found an agent who is trusted by both parties in the gambling, and as a compromise, the actual operator is still Yan Nanxing.
This is what Xing Rui is really worried about. Once Yian is really successful, they plan to confiscate the company. In fact, Yan Nanxing will not only not own any shares, but will not even get a salary.
However, this secret was not convenient to disclose. When Xing Rui said this, his eldest brother did become suspicious. However, Xing Rui embellished it, saying that Yan Nanxing did not want to be discovered by his family, and was dissatisfied with the current plan of the Yan family, so he found another way.
This was Yan Nanxing's description, which was quite smooth. Xing Sheng didn't believe a word of it. He snorted coldly and said, "Just follow him and continue to be deceived."
Xing Rui did not continue the argument and found something else to end the topic.
In fact, he had always known that not only his family, but also some of the aristocratic families he was familiar with, were not optimistic about Yan Nanxing.
Most people don't understand and discriminate against him for his public appearance as an internet celebrity or for his many problems, but he has such a strong aura that no one dares to say anything bad about him to his face.
Xing Rui has always been dismissive of this. After all, everyone knows that Yan Nanxing is obviously too outstanding, and the Yan family does have some ability, but they cannot get close to them, so naturally rumors spread.
Yan Nanxing himself didn't care much about it. In this circle of people, he had few acquaintances except Xing Rui. Most of them were not in his eyes, and he was even more disdainful of joining the social circle of that group of people.
Thinking of this, there was a knock on the office door suddenly, but the other party was just polite out of habit, and the next moment he pushed the door open and walked in. Xing Rui sat up straight, and when he looked up, he saw the person he was worried about just now appeared directly in front of him.
"What are you doing?" Yan Nanxing pushed the door open and came in, directly facing Xing Rui's reserved look, a little confused, "What bad thing did you do? You're so scared."
"How could that be... You just do nothing but slander me all day long." Yan Nanxing was in a very relaxed mood, and Xing Rui also breathed a sigh of relief. "How are the negotiations for cooperation with my brother going?"
Yan Nanxing walked over and sat down on the sofa opposite him: "Since you know I went to talk to him, how could you not know the result?"
Although he was speaking sarcastically, his tone was particularly pleasant, indicating that the result was very satisfactory.
Xing Rui was finally relieved. A huge weight lifted off his shoulders, and everything he did seemed to become easier. "It's a pleasant surprise that this has been done. It also gives us more confidence to increase our stake. I can sleep well tonight."
"Hey, but how are you going to handle the termination of the contract? Aren't you afraid your father will find out?"
Yan Nanxing took a sip of the tea on the table and couldn't help but sigh: "Ah, my own tea still tastes better. You really don't know what restaurant your brother chose. He spent so much money on a cheap restaurant. It's really a waste for him."
He made a serious comment, and seeing Xing Rui anxiously waiting for the result, he smiled and announced the reason: "Your brother is determined to terminate the contract, but the cooperation period has just expired. Your family is big and powerful, and Yan's can't compete with it or suppress it. What can he do if the old man finds out?"
Xing Rui anxiously asked, "Oh, you know that's not what I meant, but by then he will definitely know who the new contractor is!"
Yian is currently on the rise, and openly competing with established companies for cooperation is tantamount to a slap in the face and a challenge.
If Mr. Yan really wants to suppress it, it won't be easy.
"If you know, then know. What's there to be afraid of?" Yan Nanxing was quite calm, but he did have the capital to be calm. "He's just old, not senile. He really has the ability to mobilize his own forces to suppress emerging companies. Why would he be so cowardly for so many years and refuse to take risks to innovate?"
Xing Rui: "...That seems to be the case."
But it is better to be safe than sorry.
Fortunately, Yan Nanxing provided a preventive plan the next moment: "Besides, even if he really has this idea, most of the decision-making power of the Yan family is in my hands now, so it won't be so easy for him to act."
Xing Rui almost laughed out loud.
It was Old Master Yan who personally forced Yan Nanxing to take over this right.
Who could have thought that this would backfire like this?
However, this news did not spread until a few months later. Not long after Xing Sheng and Yian came into contact, Old Master Yan got wind of it, and soon the news spread that he had fallen ill due to anger.
This illness came at such a coincidence, it was most likely a pretense, probably to threaten him into taking some targeted measures. Yan Nanxing was not too worried, but when he really went back, he saw that Old Man Yan was dressed completely differently from usual, and he keenly sensed that something was wrong.
Old Master Yan came out accompanied by his butler. As expected, he did not look sick at all, but he did not look so cheerful at all.
Yan Nanxing observed calmly for a while, then smiled tentatively: "Since the old man has recovered, there is no need for me to visit him. I will go back first while it is still early."
Before he left, Old Master Yan waved his hand, and two servants stepped forward and decisively snatched Yan Nanxing's suitcase and took it to his room.
Yan Nanxing raised an eyebrow, turned around and saw the old man smiling cheerfully, raising his hand towards him: "Why are you in such a hurry? It's a rare opportunity for you to come back, and I have something good to tell you."
What a good thing.
Both of them knew very well that the reason why he came back was simply because there was a big problem with Yan's business. These days, the old man was acting like a half-hands-off boss, as if he had handed over the power of management to Yan Nanxing, so naturally he had to be held accountable for this.
The grandfather and grandson entered the hall and sat down to drink a cup of tea. The first swaying was too long and too leisurely. Yan Nanxing realized later that he had become a little alert, as if a storm was about to come.
After all, he was young and full of energy. He held the tea bowl tightly, but before he could even take a sip, he put it back and said, "I'm very busy with work. If you have anything to say, just say it directly."
Old Master Yan had always looked down on his side hustle and was very disdainful of this excuse: "You're busy with work, but I don't think you're doing very well."
Yan Nanxing raised his eyebrows slightly.
Here it comes.
He chuckled softly, looking helpless: "Speak some sense, old man. Those across the street are from the Xing family. How can I influence them? Even if you go and negotiate in person, you won't be able to reach an agreement, right?"
No one believed what he said. Others thought Yan Nanxing was a playboy who was used to doing whatever he wanted. But Old Master Yan was very smart and immediately grasped the key point: "In fact, you didn't even want to save this cooperation, right?"
"Those people in the Xing family look down on you, and you probably can't deal with them much."
Yan Nanxing just smiled: "That's not the case."
The two of them were playing along, but Old Master Yan chuckled and said bluntly, "Whether you're unwilling or doing it on purpose, it doesn't matter."
He laughed, his tone filled with joy. The more he laughed, the more uneasy Yan Nanxing felt. Sure enough, the next thing he heard was a startling remark: "The Xing family is a respectable family. The eldest of the Xing family came to visit a few days ago and said he had a compensation plan. I think it's a good one, so I asked you to come back to fulfill this appointment."
The more Yan Nanxing listened, the more strange it felt: "Your agreement with him also involves me?"
Old Master Yan didn't say anything directly. He just raised his hand and the butler handed over a big red piece of letter paper and placed it in front of Yan Nanxing.
The color scheme and floral decorations looked familiar, and Yan Nanxing recognized what it was at once.
After all, when he was young, Xing Rui stole one and insisted on giving it to Yan Shannai.
That was the special marriage certificate style made by the Xing family.
Yan Nanxing didn't answer it, nor did he have any interest in opening it.
Considering what Old Man Yan had just said, he burst out laughing in anger.
No wonder he was so happy even though the contract fell through. It turned out that he had found a way to have a deeper bond and smoother cooperation, which was marriage.
"Are you getting old and confused?" Yan Nanxing didn't know how he managed to maintain his last bit of rationality. "Do you really have to make me say something so harsh? Your grandson is gay and will never get married in this lifetime."
The marriage certificate was not accepted. Instead, the housekeeper placed it flat on the table next to Old Man Yan. He probably expected Yan Nanxing to react furiously, so he was not in a hurry and stated his thoughts in a businesslike manner.
"You also know that the Xing family is different from us. If we sever this relationship, the affection you have for the third son of the Xing family won't be passed on to future generations. We must leave something in our hands to continue the family's reputation."
Yan Nanxing stopped pretending to be obedient and sneered at him, "That only works if the Yan family still has descendants, right?"
These words were so harsh that even the usually dignified butler beside him couldn't help frowning.
Old Master Yan was surprisingly calm. "Whether you want to give birth, adopt, or raise a child, our family needs an heir to carry on this craft. If I die, I won't be able to control what you do. But as long as I'm here, you have to follow my instructions."
Yan Nanxing hated him the most for acting like a patriarch.
They are pedantic, closed-minded, and unreasonable. Any slight conflict between the two of them will always result in one of them getting angry.
This argument was meaningless. Yan Nanxing lost his last bit of patience and didn't even bother to respond. He just got up and went upstairs to his room.
The sound of a door slamming on the second floor could be heard from a great distance away. The housekeeper looked over, a little worried, and turned to ask, "Haven't you told the eldest young master about tomorrow's party yet?"
Although he had clearly won the argument, Old Master Yan's face showed no joy. He slowly exhaled, waved his hand and told the butler to leave: "I'll tell him about it later. Don't worry about his attitude. Anyway, he can't go anywhere. In the end, you have no choice but to cooperate."
The butler agreed and left.
On the second floor, Yan Nanxing in the room was clinging to the balcony railing. He took a long time to catch his breath, his eyes gloomy, and he bit his lips to calm his exploding emotions.
After adjusting his breathing rate, he turned on his phone. The interface was still on the chat box with Nan Fei. His eyes moved slightly. Rarely, he dialed the voice call without thinking.
The call was picked up quickly. There was a slight noise in the background, but the owner's calm voice immediately drowned out the noise: "Hello, Nanxing, what's going on?"
Yan Nanxing closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, they were slightly moist.
"I kind of missed you."
