Chapter 1877: Exposing Grandma Pei

Upon saying this, Lan Huifang tried to pull on Old Master Chi’s sleeve like a little girl. However, she was blocked by Chi Yang and Nangong Nuannuan, who were sitting between them.

“Grandma Pei, my grandfather doesn’t like others touching him. If anyone touches him, he’s prone to break out in a rash,” Chi Yang said coldly.

Nangong Nuannuan smiled and added, “Grandma Pei, my grandfather is old. Even though the rash won’t be serious, it’ll take at least one or two days for it to subside. Since we’re no longer relatives, can’t you just leave it?”

“You’re…”

Before she could say ‘finished’, Grandma Pei suddenly remembered that Nangong Nuannuan was the chairman of the Imperial Phoenix Group. She only wanted to repair her relationship with her elder brother to obtain more benefits from the Imperial Phoenix Group.

She had almost been blinded by anger.

“I’m Big Brother Chi Yang’s fiance, Nangong Nuannuan. Didn’t Grandma Pei stop me from speaking to your daughter-in-law just now? How could you forget about that so quickly?”

When Chi Yang and Old Master Chi heard this, their brows furrowed.

“Little girl, what did they say to you just now? Did they bully you?”

When they heard that Lan Huifang and Zhou Ruxue were looking for Nangong Nuannuan, Old Master Chi and Chi Yang roughly guessed what had gone down.

Lan Huifang was upset by this.

“Big Brother, Nuannuan is Chi Yang’s fiance. So, I’m basically Nuannuan’s great-aunt. What’s wrong with me talking to her? Do you have to act so nervous? It’s as if you think we’re going to eat Nuannuan!”

This was simply their way of humiliating her. She was being treated like an outsider—no, someone even worse than an outsider. She was being treated like a thief whom they had to be protected from.

No matter what, she was a reputable figure at the military base. Was there a need for them to behave like this?

Nangong Nuannuan looked at Old Master Chi. She held his hand and said, “Grandpa, it was nothing. Grandma Pei just accompanied Young Madam Pei to come and apologize to me. Don’t you remember that before the Spring Festival, Young Madam Pei threw a check for five to six million yuan at me, asking me to take the money and leave Big Brother Chi Yang? Today, she accompanied Young Madam Pei to apologize to me.”

When the people at the table heard that Zhou Ruxue had done such a thing, they all cast incredulous looks at Grandma Pei.

After all, due Shi Gen’s propaganda, all the big shots present knew who Nangong Nuannuan was. She was the chairman of the Imperial Phoenix Group and the chairman of Tianheng Holdings.

She was the chairman of the Imperial Phoenix Group, one of the top three super corporations in the world. Had this bitter old lady actually made her daughter-in-law throw five million yuan at her to make them leave her fiance?

Why did she have to throw that at the Chairman of the Imperial Phoenix Group? Why did she have to use money? Throwing a stone would have been better than money.

The person she ended up humiliated was not Nuannuan, but herself!

Shi Gen also knew about Zhou Ruxue finding Nangong Nuannuan. After all, he was the one who asked his in-law’s mother to do this. At that time, he still wanted his granddaughter to marry Chi Yang. He felt that Nangong Nuannuan was not worthy.

Now that he knew Nangong Nuannuan’s identity—not only was she the chairman of the Imperial Phoenix Group and Tianheng Holdings—but she was also Queen, who could kill without batting an eyelid. He never furhter entertained the thought of letting his granddaughter compete with Nangong Nuannuan over a man.

To them, Nangong Nuannuan was even scarier than the plague.

This Grandma Pei had lied to him! She told him that the Pei family had given Nangong Nuannuan 50 million yuan to leave Chi Yang. She then made them think that Nangong Nuannuan had shamelessly accepted the 50 million yuan but not left Chi Yang.
