Chapter 586
“Don''t your families go way back? Why does your dad want to do this to Nan Chen?” Ning Ran asked.
“I''m not really sure, too. Maybe it''s because Nan Chen likes you instead of my sister, Qing. He''s always
wanted Qing to marry him. In fact, that''s what my whole family wants, including me. Of course, my
objective of letting Qing marry him is different from theirs. If Nan Chen were to marry Qing, then you''ll
be avable, and my chances will be increased.” Ouyang Qi was extremely straightforward with his
words and was not the slightest bit embarrassed by what he said.
“So?” Ning Ran prompted.
“Will you let me sleep with you?”
“Get lost! Do you even know what you''re talking about? Do I look like that kind of person who''ll do
that?” Ning Ran raged.
“Why would you refuse? My dad''s rich, and I''m the son of a rich family. Though I''m a littlecking in
terms of looks aspared to Nan Chen, I''ve got a better character than him. He''s always putting on a
serious face and scolding others. I''m different. I always put on a bright smile.” After saying that, his lips
widened into a grin, which made him look quiteical.
“I don''t like you. And don''t ever mention this matter again. Otherwise, I''m going to get mad,” Ning Ran
warned sternly.
“Come on. Feelings can be developed slowly. Once you get to know me, you''ll realize I''m actually not
bad.”
“What are you trying to say? Is this it?” Ning Ran asked.
“Of course. I''m just trying to tell you to be careful. Since my dad wants me to do such a thing, his target
is naturally the entire Nan family and not Nan Chen alone. I heard them talking yesterday. Nan Xing
was having a meal with Qing when he got attacked and thrown out of the building. I''m pretty sure my
dad and my sister hired someone to do it, but I don''t have any proof. Besides, I''m not aware of many
things since they don''t believe me. Anyway, just be careful. You can just ignore Nan Chen. He can take
good care of himself. What''s more important is that you take care of yourself and your children.
Ning Ran stared at him in silence, wondering if his words were true and what were his motives.
“Don''t look at me like that. I''m telling you the truth.” Ouyang Qi frowned.
“There''s something I''d like to ask you. Can I trust you?”
“Sure,” Ouyang Qi answered steadily.
“Why should I trust you?” Ning Ran questioned.
Ouyang Qi pondered before replying, “Because we''re friends. Because I like you.”
“But you''re a member of the Ouyang family.”
“Yes. That''s actually rather troublesome. Of course, I won''t harm my dad or my sister. I might not be a
good person myself, but I don''t think it''s necessary for my family to do such things to harm others.
We''re so rich. What''s the point of doing that? Isn''t it great enough to be able to have fun every day?
Why make ourselves so busy? That''s why I''m not obeying my father''s instructions to take advantage of
you,” Ouyang Qi exined.
“Take advantage? How?” Ning Ran asked, putting on her guard.
“My dad gave me a bottle of wine that has drugs in it. Once you drink it, you''ll pass out for a long time.
During that period, I can strip you and have sex with you. I can even film and take pictures of you to let
Nan Chen and the whole world know about it. Then, Nan Chen will be so furious that he''ll want to kill
me, leading him to lose his mind. Like what my dad said, once a person loses his mind, it means he''s
not too far from breaking down. Besides, losing one''s mind is actually a form of breaking down,”
Ouyang Qi said.
“So, that ss of wine earlier...” Ning Ran was frightened.
“I didn''t bring the bottle of wine my dad gave me. The one you drank earlier wasn''t drugged,” Ouyang
Qi assured.
“Really?”
“Yes. This is Hotpot City. How am I supposed to take you away if I drugged you in broad daylight?
Besides, everything will be captured by the surveince cameras.”
“Why are you telling me all this?” Ning Ran asked, still feeling doubtful.
“Didn''t I tell you already? I want you to be wary of others.”
“So, the fact that I''m having a meal with you is because I trust you too much? Based on what you said,
I should be wary of you?”
“No, you got into my car because you trusted me. That''s why you''re having a meal with me. It''s true
that I''m Ouyang Duo''s son. You''re well aware of that, too. However, you came here with me willingly.
This shows that you trust me, which is also one of the reasons I didn''t take advantage of you. To be
honest, my father had told me to make a move on you long ago. I only gave him a verbal promise, but I
never took any actions.”
Ning Ran scoffed, “Well, looks like I should thank you.”
“There''s no need for that. I''m just reminding you to be careful in the future. It''s best if you tell Nan Chen
to assign two bodyguards to follow you around.”
Ning Ran was starting to believe in Ouyang Qi.
Perhaps Ouyang Qi''s words were true. She still trusted him because he actually never did anything
wrong to her.
“So, that''s all you wanted to tell me?”
“Yes.” Ouyang Qi nodded.
“Okay. I understand now. I''ve got another question for you. My daughter''s been poisoned by someone.
Is this your family''s doing?” Ning Ran asked as she fixed her gaze on him.
“Someone poisoned Erbao? How is she?” Ouyang Qi was shocked by the information.
“She''s fine. Thankfully, she only tried a small amount of buttercream. If she actually took a full bite, she
would''ve died. I just don''t understand who could be so evil to harm a child. Is this your family''s doing?
Is it your father or your sister?”
Ouyang Qi shook his head. “I don''t think it''s them. They wouldn''t do such things.”
“You know nothing about this?”
“I really don''t. But I don''t think it''s their doing. They''re not that evil. No matter how serious the matter is,
it''s still a conflict between adults. How could they possibly involve a child?” Ouyang Qi said with a
serious expression. Ning Ran, too, felt that he did not look like he was lying.
Of course, that could not prove the Ouyang family was innocent. After all, there was a bigger possibility
of Ouyang Qi not knowing about it.
“Okay. It''s fine if you don''t know about it. Well, that''s all I guess? Thank you for telling me all this,” Ning
Ran thanked him sincerely.
“You''re wee. If Nan Chen marries another woman, you can consider me. I don''t mind being a third
party between you and Nan Chen.” Ouyang Qi had returned to his nonsensical self.
Ning Ran merely ignored him in response.

“Okay. Now, I need you to smash me with this wine bottle,” Ouyang Qi said, pointing at the empty wine
bottle.
“Huh? Why?”
“I''ve got to give my dad an exnation, right? Well, I can just tell him I failed because you saw through
my n. Then, I can say you beat me up with a wine bottle. That way, I''ll have an answer for the
oue.”
“That''s unnecessary, right? He''s your dad, not your boss. If you fail, then you''ve failed. What could he
possibly do to you?” Ning Ran found it quite ridiculous.
“Exactly! He''s my boss! Though he''s my dad, he''s my boss as well. He''s already frozen my credit
cards. Currently, I''m relying on borrowing money from others to get by. The Lunar New Year''sing
soon. I''ve got so many meet-ups with my friends. If I''m broke, how am I going to pick up girls and show
off? To me, money is more important than my life. If you create some minor wounds for me, my dad will
take pity on me. Perhaps he''ll unfreeze my card, and I''ll have money again!” Ouyang Qi said with a
look of misery.
Ning Ran had never heard of such theories in her life before.
“I can''t do it! It''s too dangerous! What if I hit you so hard that it gives you a concussion? What if you
be dumb? I don''t want to be responsible for the oue. I''m not doing it!” Ning Ran rejected
firmly.
“If you don''t hit me, I''ve got no choice but to hit you and make you pass out. Then, I''ll sleep with you.
That way, I''ll have something to tell my dad.”
“Don''t you dare!” Ning Ran shot to her feet.
“To be honest, I don''t dare to. That''s why it''s better if you hit me. Come on. It''s fine. I trust in your skills.”
Ouyang Qi stuck his head forward.
“You want me to hit you for real?”
“Go on!”
