Chapter 543
Everyone there knew how much Ouyang Qing hated Ning Ran, so they verbally attacked Ning Ran
together.
It was nice to speak ill of someone behind their backs because there was amon hatred. However,
Nan Xing''s involvement in the conversation turned the situation sour.
Nan Xing was Nan Chen''s biological brother, so his stories, especially those involving the Nan family,
carried a lot of credibilities.
He had publicly regarded Ning Ran as his sister-inw, and that sent an implicit message of how he
was on her side.
That, in turn, meant that he was going against Ouyang Qing.
The part where Ouyang Qing was most angry about, however, was how Nan Xing imed that Nan
Chen and Ning Ran were on good terms.
That was equivalent to calling Ouyang Qing a liar.
“Are they married?” challenged Ouyang Qing while ring at Nan Xing.
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“You shouldn''t call her your sister-inw if she hasn''t signed on the dotted lines. Don''t you know that''s
not right? Would you regard a random girl on the street as your sister-inw? Do you see every woman
who has any contact with Nan Chen as your sister-inw?” growled Ouyang Qing angrily.
Nan Xing chuckled. “Everyone knows my brother won''t hang out with just any woman. He''s an
endangered species who has a very specific taste, so there is no need for you to worry about me
making a mistake.”
“You...” Ouyang Qing was so angry that she pointed a finger at Nan Xing and demanded, “You''re not
weed here. F*ck off”
“Okay,” replied Nan Xing happily.
He never wanted to socialize with them anyway, so the insult came in a timely manner. They basically
gave him an amazing excuse.
He took a few steps forward before he turned around and warned, “By the way, don''t tell me to f*ck off
the next time you want me to leave. If I hear those words again, I will kick you out.”
After saying all that, he left.
Ouyang Qing was utterly embarrassed because Nan Xing had dissed her in front of her friends.
She wanted to chase after him and further insult him, but she was worried about Nan Xing actually
kicking her out of the ce.
At the time, her only shot at aplishing her goals was Nan Xing, so she could not go overboard.
That was why she chose to hold her anger in.
Half an hourter, Ouyang Qing''s friends left. She went to another private room in Orchid Club and met
up with her father, Ouyang Duo, there.
The first thing the man did was scold Ouyang Qing. “Nan Xing is nothing but a useless piece of trash,
so why did you choose him?”
Ouyang Qing had gotten into a fight with Nan Xing earlier, so she was irritable as well.
Hence, she bellowed, “Dad, you have long known that Nan Xing is nothingpared to Nan Chen, so
why are you putting the me on me now? It''s not like I have another choice.”
“I know he''s the lesser brother, but I didn''t expect him to be that terrible! He''s like toxic waste from a
factory and is utterly useless,”ined Ouyang Duo.
“What did the two of you talk about? Why did you meet up with him?”
“Why do you think? I asked him over to tell him I''d support him if he wants to build a career orpete
against his brother. Who would''ve thought that he''d say that he dislikes power and simply wants to
enjoy life? Seriously, how useless does a man have to be to say something like that?”
Ouyang Qing did not know how to respond to that. She was truly disappointed in Nan Xing, but there
was nothing she could do. Her disappointment did not change the fact that she could not find anyone
better.
“No, this won''t do. We have to turn things around,” said Ouyang Duo as he picked up the winess on
the table and downed his drink.
“How do we do that?” asked Ouyang Qing.
“We''ll ignite his passion and his desire for power by making him feel threatened.”
“That might prove to be difficult. Some people are simply born without ambition.”
Nan Xing was born with a silver spoon and had always had a luxurious life. Men like him did not need
to worry about anything.
There''s one just like him in our own family, too.
Naturally, the person Ouyang Qing was thinking about was Ouyang Qi.
“Nan Xing''s life has been too easy, and that is why he thinks he doesn''t need to grow. We must destroy
that belief of his. Nan Chen always has Nan Xing''s back and will clean up whatever mess thetter
makes. That is why Nan Xing has always seen Nan Chen as a dependable brother and thinks the world
of the guy. However, if Nan Chen proves to be unreliable, Nan Xing will probably start thinking about
his own future and whether he wants to keep depending on Nan Chen.”
Ouyang Qing felt as though her father was deliberately being confusing. Why would Nan Chen be
unreliable? The guy is extremely powerful. Moreover, he''s young and healthy, so he wouldn''t have any
health-rted issues for the time being. It''d be extremely difficult to make him seem unreliable.
“I don''t care what you have to do. Just drive a wedge between him and Nan Chen,” added Ouyang Duo
to rify what he meant.
Ouyang Qing understood her father''s n right away. Truth was, she had considered doing something
simr in the past.
She hated Nan Chen now, and she knew the entire family would suffer if Nan Chen and Nan Xing got
into a fight.
Their suffering was something Ouyang Qing craved, so she would be happy, even if Nan Xing would
fail to beat Nan Chen.
Unfortunately, that mission was virtually impossible to aplish.
“Nan Chen and Nan Xing are twins, and they have always been close. It''s way too difficult to get them
to turn on each other,” replied Ouyang Qing, sharing her concern with her father.
“It doesn''t matter how difficult the task is. We have to do it, regardless. Nan Xing won''t feel threatened
and grow unless there was a conflict between him and Nan Chen. Naturally, it''d be best if their fight
gives us an opening to involve ourselves in the matter. Think about it. Why are Bai Hua and Nan
Zhiyuan so polite to you? It''s because they both need you! If Nan Xing feels threatened, he''ll turn to
you for moral support,” uttered Ouyang Duo.
Then, he continued, “Sooner orter, he will get closer to you and trust you. He might even lean on
you. Yes, that is the best option for us! Turning the brothers against each other will be the outline of our
n for now. We''ll spend more time figuring out the details in the future. Trust me. Everything is
possible as long as we put our mind to it.”
“Okay, I''ll try.”
The next morning, Ning Ran woke up early to prepare breakfast.
She had to continue shooting the movie today, and her schedule was pretty packed at the time, so she
did not have much free time to hang out with her kids. That was why she had to prepare the kids''
breakfasts quickly before rushing to the filming site.

Nan Chen woke up even earlier and was already done with his morning exercise routine.
The kids did not need to go to school, so they had been sleeping intely. However, they heard a
commotion outside, so they woke up anyway.
The maids showed up just in time. Since there were two kids, there was no way one nanny could
handle taking care of both. Hence, the Nan family sent five maids over. Each kid would have two maids
taking care of them, and the remaining maid would be responsible for cleaning and cooking.
The truth, however, was that the kids did not need that many nannies. Erbao would only be
mischievous asionally, and Dabao was downright perfect. He would either read a book or y on
hisputer, so there was no need for anyone to babysit him at all.
Even though Ning Ran did not prepare that many breakfast, she invited the maids to join them, anyway.
The maids turned her down, though. They let her eat up and rush to work before preparing their own
breakfasts. They were not in a hurry anyway, so that was the right thing to do.
“Mommy, how long before we go to school again?” asked Erbao suddenly during breakfast.
“Your holiday just started. Are you missing school already?” questioned Ning Ran curiously.
“It''s so boring here because I''m not allowed to watch cartoons continuously, and Dabao is too busy with
his projects to y with me. The nannies don''t know how to y either, so it''s impossible for me,”
comined Erbao.
Ah, so she''s bored at home.
“What do you want to do, then? Hmm... how about I drop you off at your great-grandma''s ce?”
asked Ning Ran.
Erbao''s tiny head shook like a rattle-drum. “No, no, no. It''s even more boring over there.”
“But the holiday is not over yet. You may be bored at home, but we can''t ask the school to reopen
sooner. How about I take you to a daycare center? There are many kids there, and you can y with
them.”
“Nope,” banned Nan Chen before Erbao could say anything.
