Chapter 352: What are you?

Seeing Lin Yang leave, Nan Gong Xue wanted to catch up.

But, the noble lady held her back.

"Xue'er, I'm doing this for your own good; you'll understand someday."

Nan Gong Zhao also frowned, and said to Nan Gong Zhao.

"Brother, you're too indulgent toward Xue'er; such a trash, how could he be worthy of our Nan Gong Family!"

Nan Gong Zheng laughed angrily, and said to Nan Gong Zhao.

"How impressive is our Nan Gong Family, really?"

Seeing Nan Gong Zheng's expression, Nan Gong Zhao said, puzzled.

"Brother, why are you so angry? Did I say something wrong?"

The noble lady also said, "Old Second, we're doing this for the good of the Nan Gong Family."

"He may be a rich second-generation, but he's still not worthy of our Nan Gong Family!"

"Now that we've obtained the agency rights for the Longevity Elixir, we'll rise even higher."

Nan Gong Zheng, hearing that, coldly smiled and said.

"The agency rights for the Longevity Elixir? Big sister, you're thinking too highly of yourself."

Seeing Nan Gong Zheng's mocking attitude toward her, the noble lady couldn't help but frown and say.

"What do you mean by that?"

"Could it be that what I said is wrong?"

Nan Gong Zheng's face darkened to the point of almost dripping water, and he said to the noble lady.

"Do you know or not, the Longevity Elixir belongs to him!"

"The Feng Family rose to quasi-first-class status only because of him."

"Xue'er getting close to him is something everyone should welcome, yet you keep mocking him in every way!"

"You're amazing!"

Upon hearing that, the noble lady's expression changed slightly.

"How could that be? He's just a youngster; how could he have such ability?"

"How could that be?"

Nan Gong Zheng sneered: "He can even dispel poison; his medical skill is enough to impress even professors."

"Such a person—why do you look down on him?"

Nan Gong Zheng said to the noble lady.

"Sister, you've stayed in Yanjing too long; you've grown accustomed to looking down on others from above."

"This habit, you ought to change it."

When the noble lady was at a loss for words, Nan Gong Zheng turned his gaze to Nan Gong Zhao.

"No matter what method you use, we must bring Mr. Lin back!"

"Otherwise, you'll be a sinner of our Nan Gong Family, and I'll strike you from the clan register!"

Hearing this, Nan Gong Zhao's face changed dramatically.

"Brother, are you making a mountain out of a molehill?"

"Making a mountain out of a molehill?"

Nan Gong Zheng said solemnly: "Now that he's gone, our Nan Gong Family's chance to rise is gone—tell me, is this making a mountain out of a molehill?"

"Get out now!"

Seeing the enraged Nan Gong Zheng, Nan Gong Zhao dared not say more and slunk away.

After Nan Gong Zhao left, the noble lady furrowed her brows slightly and said.

"Old Second, I think you've gone a bit too far with this."

"Too far?"

Nan Gong Zheng looked at the noble lady and said.

"Big sister, this is a chance for our Nan Gong Family to advance further, but because of your contempt, we're about to let the opportunity slip away!"

"You say, how can I not be angry?"

He no longer paid attention to the noble lady, but turned his gaze to Nan Gong Xue.

"Xue'er, our family's affairs with Mr. Lin still need you to mediate more."

"After all, you are a true member of the Nan Gong Family, unlike some people who, after eating today's Yanjing meal, don't even know their own surname!"

Having said that, somewhat annoyed, he went upstairs.

Hearing Nan Gong Zheng's barbed words, the noble lady's face looked very grim.

She took a deep breath, suppressed her anger, and said to Nan Gong Xue.

"Xue'er, go invite that fellow out; I'll handle what I've done."

"So that your father won't bear a grudge against me."

Hearing her aunt's words, Nan Gong Xue said carefully.

"Auntie, Mr. Lin is no ordinary person; it's better to treat him with respect."

"Respect?"

The noble lady snorted coldly in her heart, having married into Yanjing and climbed onto a high branch.

Having returned to Jinling, must she still watch a youngster's expression?

Nevertheless, on the surface she still agreed to Nan Gong Xue.

"Rest assured, since your father has spoken so seriously tonight, I will naturally be cautious."

Nangong Xue heard the words, hesitated a moment, took out her phone, and dialed Lin Yang's number...

After hanging up, she said to the noble lady.

"Tomorrow noon, we will apologize to Mr. Lin at the Jinling Hotel."

"As you say, I will bring Old Three along and surely persuade him to come back."

Upon hearing the noble lady say that, Nangong Xue felt relieved.

At the same time, she felt some regret, wondering how she had fallen asleep.

If she had been awake, this wouldn't have happened!

The next day at noon, Nangong Xue stood at the hotel entrance in a dignified, proper long dress, waiting for Lin Yang.

Seeing this, the noble lady and Nangong Zhao couldn't help but frown.

"Xue'er, we are elders; how could we be waiting for him here?"

"We'll go up first."

Hearing that, Nangong Xue still wanted to say something, but the two paid no attention and went upstairs on their own.

Nangong Xue felt somewhat wronged.

"Wasn't it supposed to be an apology? Why are you still acting so high and mighty!"

But, as a junior, she dared not say more and could only wait for Lin Yang herself.

Not long after, Lin Yang arrived in a Maybach.

Lin Yang, who had walked to the entrance, saw Nangong Xue waiting alone.

He smiled and said, "As the Nangong young lady, waiting for me here is somewhat inappropriate."

Nangong Xue smiled and said, "What's inappropriate about meeting Mr. Lin here?"

"Please."

Lin Yang smiled and walked upstairs.

The two entered the private room, and the noble lady and Nangong Zhao turned their gazes toward them.

Seeing Lin Yang enter, the noble lady said to Lin Yang.

"Here."

Nangong Zhao also poured a cup of wine and said to Lin Yang.

"Please be seated."

Their attitude made Nangong Xue's smile freeze instantly.

"Aren't my aunt and them supposed to apologize properly? What's with this attitude?"

As her expression stiffened, Lin Yang laughed and sat down.

After seeing Lin Yang sit down, Nangong Zhao spoke first.

"Lin Yang, between us big men we don't hold grudges."

"Last night's affair is all in this cup; drink it and the matter will be over."

Saying that, he downed the wine in the cup in one gulp.

The noble lady also looked at Lin Yang and said.

"Lin Yang, a man should have breadth of mind; some things can simply be laughed off."

Lin Yang chuckled and looked at the noble lady.

"What if I don't?"

The noble lady said in a deep voice, "Give you face, you must keep it."

"Our Nangong family is not easy to bully in Jinling!"

"Then is our Mr. Lin easy to bully?"

Acting as the driver, Ding Biao walked in with a solemn face.

Seeing Ding Biao enter, the noble lady was about to scold when Nangong Zhao asked with some surprise.

"Mr. Ding of the Xuánmén?"

Ding Biao nodded and stood behind Lin Yang.

"Turns out your dog eyes aren't blind yet!"

After being retorted, Nangong Zhao felt embarrassed.

The noble lady frowned and asked, "Who is this person, so arrogant?"

"He is a core member of the Jinling Xuánmén Association, Ding Biao."

Upon hearing that, the noble lady immediately stood up and smiled.

She walked up to Ding Biao and extended her hand.

"So it's Mr. Ding."

"What are you, you're not even worthy to shake my hand?"

Ding Biao spoke mockingly.
