Chapter 694 - 0696: How to Start Talking

    <h4>Chapter 694: Chapter 0696: How to Start Talking</h4>


    Chu Ge just raised his eyes and nced at him, crooking up a slight smile on his lips. He said, "You think too highly of me, I am not omnipotent."


    Seeing the smile on Chu Ge’s face, Nangong Man Sha felt increasingly annoyed. Putting aside whether her grandfather was in danger or not, how could he still manage to smile in such an atmosphere?


    "Mr. Chu, you’re really going too far!" Nangong Man Sha gave Chu Ge a deep look, and these were the only words she could finally utter.


    Nangong Man Sha spoke indignantly and then turned her head away, no longer paying attention to Chu Ge.


    At this moment, the elevator opened, and Nangong Yunhai walked out hastily, his face filled with angry expressions.


    "Sister, those reporters outside are too much! They actually cursed Grandfather to die!" Nangong Yunhai was really infuriated by those people; he wanted to handle the public rtions, although he didn’t know who leaked the news and attracted so many reporters.


    But he believed that with Chu Ge present, Grandfather would definitely be fine.


    So, when those reporters kept asking whether Old Master Nangong was on his deathbed and whether he was about to die, his face turned green.


    Nangong Man Sha nced at him without saying a word. Nangong Yunhai looked around and, after his gaze fell on Chu Ge, asked somewhat perplexedly, "Mr. Chu, with your high medical skills, why..."


    Nangong Man Sha also shifted her gaze onto Chu Ge, her eyes filled with contemtion.


    She always felt that there was something she didn’t know, but Chu Ge’s lips were sealed tight; she couldn’t get anything out of him even after asking for a long time.


    Zheng Yan was closely watching the developments here. Seeing that the three remained silent, she could not help but snicker slightly, saying, "I really thought we had invited a capable doctor, but it turns out not to be the case."


    A momentter, she spoke with a sour tone, "I guess this is surely someone intentionally leading the arrangements, the purpose being to smoothly inherit the property."


    The corridor was very quiet, everyone anxiously waiting. Zheng Yan’s voice was neither loud nor soft, and everyone in the corridor could hear her very clearly.


    Thus, hearing Zheng Yan’s voice, everyone’s gaze fell on Chu Ge.


    Everyone knew that Shao Gang was their invited person, yet he turned out to be a pawn that trapped the Old Master. Now another Chu Ge had appeared, though invited by the eldest daughter, he was more crediblepared to Zheng Yan’s group. But in families like these, it was hard to ensure that nobody wouldmit horrendous acts for personal gain.


    Chu Ge, feeling the surrounding gazes, merely indifferently lifted his eyes and nced around, not saying anything, and certainly not intending to exin anything.


    At this time, Nangong Linchuan and Huangpu Suyang also silently stood by; Chu Ge was invited by Man Sha, and since Man Sha believed in him, they didn’t say much.


    But meanwhile, Nangong Man Sha still remained silent, always feeling that Chu Ge was hiding something from her.


    However, Nangong Yunhai didn’t think so; he always believed Chu Ge was omnipotent. Now, since even Chu Ge was unable to treat their grandfather, he genuinely started to harbor the same thoughts as Zheng Yan - whether Chu Ge was also aiming for the Nangong Family’s wealth, or if the Nangong Family’s benefactions were not enough to satisfy him.


    Everyone harbored their own thoughts, and seeing everyone seemingly silent and seemingly siding with her, Zheng Yan’s arrogance intensified.


    She thought about her son’s shares that ended up in Chu Ge’s hands, and took this opportunity to vent her anger, "People are already coveting our Nangong Family’s shares, yet you all are indecisive. Are you waiting for someone topletely hollow out the Nangong Family’s shares before you realize the severity of the situation?"


    Chu Ge lifted his gaze, his eyes bing profound. He stared resolutely at Zheng Yan, and Zheng Yan, meeting his gaze, felt a moment of panic.


    There was still a bit of fear of Chu Ge in her heart, which made her momentarily silent.


    But Zheng Yan had said all she wanted to say; everyone present had heard it, and what others thought was not Zheng Yan’s concern.


    She voiced everything she wanted to say and felt relieved. She wasn’t about to care so much about others.


    Chu Ge only gave a nce then withdrew his gaze, showing no intention of arguing or exining, as if he hadn’t heard what Zheng Yan just said.


    Nangong Man Sha felt a bit anxious inside. She quickly stepped forward, grabbed Chu Ge’s hand, and walked towards the stairwell.


    Everyone watched this scene, but no one stopped them, including Nangong Yunhai who silently observed. He also wanted to know, to understand what Chu Ge was really thinking.


    At the stairwell, which was particrly chilly due to the draft of winter wind, Nangong Man Sha could not help but shiver as she stepped out.


    But now, nothing couldpare to the questions in her heart.


    "Mr. Chu, what on earth is going on?" Nangong Man Sha asked; "I know your capabilities, you certainly could intervene to save my grandfather, but why?"


    She really couldn’t understand what Chu Ge’s intentions were.


    "Could it really be as my second aunt said, that our Nangong Family hasn’t given you enough?" Nangong Man Sha said this out of anger, without considering the consequences of her words.


    She didn’t think about the fact that it was she who had repeatedly requested Chu Ge’s help.


    Chu Ge raised his eyes and deeply nced at her, "Is that what you think?"


    He countered.


    Nangong Man Sha was startled at first, only then realizing what she had just said. She awkwardly scratched her head and hesitantly said, "I didn’t mean it that way, but your current actions really make it hard not to think that way. Even if I believe you, others don’t. Public opinion is fearsome, and once people spread these things, do you still want to develop in Beijing?"


    Nangong Man Sha was somewhat urgent, hoping to thrive in Beijing. For Chu Ge, bing enemies with the Nangong Family could mean not just a halt to his progress, but even survival in Beijing could be at stake.


    Nangong Man Sha clearly thought that Chu Ge had not realized this, and couldn’t help but ask, "Mr. Chu, are you hiding something from me? Or is there some agreement you had with my grandfather?"


    Chu Ge’s lips slightly curved, and he spoke with a light tone, "I really thought, you would believe in me."


    Nangong Man Sha was taken aback, instinctively wanting to exin, but the words "I believe in you" got stuck in her throat and she couldn’t utter them.


    After having said such harsh words just now, how could she speak now...
