Chapter 617 A Fight To The Death
“Do you actually think that you’re part of the Nan family now?” Ouyang Duo’s voice was filled with mockery. Chai
Hua did not respond. After all, he had to hold himself back when appropriate.
At his rank, he was not supposed to rebuke Ouyang Duo. What he said earlier was already considered offensive.
Although he was not scared of Ouyang Duo, he was still the Nan family’s butler. He must not spoil Nan Zhengde’s
plan because of his own emotions.
Ouyang Duo was furious too. If even the butler did not respect him, it was evident how little regard the members of
the Nan family had for him.
He wanted to use this opportunity to humiliate Chai Hua, but the latter stopped speaking. “Pour a cup of tea for me.
I’ll wait here!” Ouyang Duo ordered Chai Hua around.
“Pour a cup of tea for Mr. Ouyang!” Chai Hua instructed his subordinates. “No, I want you to pour it for me
personally.” Ouyang Duo stared at him.
Without uttering a word, Chai Hua turned around and left to prepare the tea. Soon, tea was served. Ouyang Duo
stretched out his arm to take the cup, but he suddenly let go.
The teacup fell onto the floor with a loud crash. “What are you trying to do? How dare you smash the cup?” roared
Ouyang Duo as he pointed at Chai Hua.
Ouyang Duo kept putting Chai Hua in a difficult spot as he realized that if he provoked Chai Hua, the latter might
blurt out some important information in a fit of anger. Perhaps, this would help Ouyang Duo find out something
about the Nan family.
Even if Nan Zhengde could keep his mouth shut, Ouyang Duo did not believe that his subordinates would be equally
meticulous.
“You smashed it on purpose! I can tell!” As expected, Chai Hua became angry.
Although he was merely a butler at the Nan residence, the Nan family had always treated him with respect.
Even amongst the elites in Flower City, he would not be discriminated against as he represented the Nan family to a
certain extent.
Ouyang Duo kept trying to pick a fight with him, but he endured it the entire time. Yet, Ouyang Duo just kept
pushing his limits.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“I did it on purpose! What can you do to me? Pour another cup of tea for me, you f*cking slave!” cursed Ouyang
Duo.
“You’re going too far!”
“So what? Prepare another cup of tea for me right now! If Nan Zhengde can’t do anything to me, what can a slave
like you do?”
Noticing that Chai Hua had become furious, Ouyang Duo started to pull him into his trap.
“Although Mr. Nan can’t do anything to you, I can still kill you,” spat Chai Hua coldly.
“How dare you? Won’t you get executed for murder?”
Chai Hua inched closer to Old Master intimidatingly. “If you dare to bully Mr. Nan again, I’ll kill both of us. F*ck you,
you b*stard!”
Ouyang Duo was stunned.
He did not expect the butler of the Nan family to curse at him directly and even threaten to kill him.
To Ouyang Duo, Chai Hua was merely a servant whose life was worth nothing. As the chairman of Sunshine
Corporation, it was impossible for him to die alongside a lowly servant.
Suddenly, he understood what it meant when someone was pushed to desperation and did not dare to humiliate
Chai Hua anymore.
“If you don’t want to, forget it. I’m just joking. Why are you being so petty?” Ouyang Duo waved his hand.
A murderous look still lingered in Chai Hua’s eyes. “Don’t go overboard, Mr. Ouyang. You need to leave yourself a
backup plan.”
“Fine, fine. I won’t drink the tea anymore. Stop being so angry.”
Ouyang Duo leaned against the chair and closed his eyes.
Meanwhile, Chai Hua stood at the side and stared at him intently as if he was a prisoner.
Ouyang Duo napped for a while. When he opened his eyes, he saw that Chai Hua was still standing there and
staring at him motionlessly.
The look in Chai Hua’s eyes scared him a little. Is he planning to kill me when I’m asleep?
“You can go about your work, Mr. Chai. Why are you guarding me? I’m not a prisoner!”
“It’s fine,” replied Chai Hua curtly.
“Fine! Just stare at me, then. You’ve got nothing better to do.” Ouyang Duo felt exasperated.
However, he did not dare to doze off or close his eyes again as he was scared that Chai Hua might attack him
suddenly.
Luckily, Nan Zhengde came out at that moment.
“You’re here, Duo. Why didn’t you wake me up? I have a habit of napping in the afternoon. Sorry to keep you
waiting,” said Nan Zhengde.
“I’m sorry to disrupt your rest, Mr. Nan. I wanted to ask how things are with Nan Xing.”
“We just finished a meeting with the board of directors today. My suggestion to make Nan Xing the CEO got
rejected. They still can’t trust him and only agreed to let Nan Xing become the surrogate CEO for three months. As
long as he doesn’t commit any serious mistakes within these three months, he’ll become the official CEO. With your
help, I’m sure that Nan Xing will finish the probation smoothly and take over the Nanshi Corporation,” responded
Nan Zhengde.
Even though Ouyang Duo tried to observe Nan Zhengde’s expression, he could not detect anything.
“What about the stocks, Mr. Nan?”
“I’m starting on it,” replied Nan Zhengde without a hint of hesitation.
“I see. I’m thinking of letting my lawyer help you settle this. What do you think?”
Ouyang Duo was still worried. He wanted his own subordinate to be involved so Nan Zhengde would not play any
tricks.
“This is the Nan family’s internal affairs, so it won’t be appropriate for your subordinate to intervene, right?” This
time, Nan Zhengde hesitated.
Indeed, there’s something fishy going on with Nan Zhengde. I mustn’t let my guard down.
“Mr. Nan, my lawyer is very professional. He’ll just witness the process and help to review some documents. He
won’t meddle unnecessarily.”
“All right, then. Ask your lawyer to come over and oversee the signing of the documents.”
Only then did Ouyang Duo feel relieved.
“Oh, right. We are already almost done with the task you gave us. Has your friend helped to find out where Nan
Chen is? When can he come back?” asked Nan Zhengde.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“We can’t rush with this, Mr. Nan. My friend’s been trying to find out, but don’t worry. We’ll soon hear updates.”
“Okay, thank you. I hope that Nan Chen’s fine. Otherwise, it’ll just be a fight to the death,” said Nan Zhengde
calmly.
Even though Nan Zhengde said the last sentence calmly, Ouyang Duo felt a chill run down his spine when he heard
that.
Although it seemed like everything was under his control, he still felt very uneasy.
After the stocks were transferred to Nan Xing, who would sign a contract to transfer the stocks to Ouyang Qing,
everything would be settled.
Naturally, Nan Zhengde was not the only one in the Nan family with stocks. Others had some too.
However, he could only get Nan Zhengde’s stocks for now and use them as a permit to infiltrate the Nanshi
Corporation. Afterward, he would use other strategies to monopolize the remaining Nanshi Corporation stocks.
This endeavor would require a long time. Since it could not be accomplished in a matter of days, Ouyang Duo was
taking his time.
However, he was afraid that more troubles would crop up the more he waited. Hence, he had no choice but to
control the Nanshi Corporation using the simplest yet most brutal method.
Despite that, he still felt uneasy for no reason.
Once this was accomplished, he would evict the entire Nan family from Flower City and hide them in a place where
he could control them.
Then, he would keep Nan Xing, who would serve as a puppet to issue all of his orders.
In that case, he would control Nan Xing by using the Nan family as hostages. At the same time, he would ensure
that the Nan family would not do anything reckless by having Nan Xing in his hands.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Nan. Nan Chen’s fine and will return safely soon. I’ll head back first,” said Ouyang Duo with a cold
smirk.
“Okay. Send him out!”
