Chapter 629 - 0631: Investigate Thoroughly
Chu Ge said with a smile, "Considering Shao Gang’s current status in Beijing, I think Mr. Nangong wouldn’t be stingy with his lifesaver."
Mentioning Shao Gang, Old Master Nangong’s expression slightly darkened. Man Sha had already recounted to him about what Shao Gang had been doing outside. That man, relying on the Nangong family’s kindness, swaggered about deceiving others and tarnishing the Nangong family’s reputation—it was absolutely unbearable.
In fact, Old Master Nangong was also worried that if he showed too much favor towards Chu Ge, he might do something atrocious just like Shao Gang.
It seemed as if Chu Ge had seen through Old Master Nangong’s thoughts. The corners of his lips slightly curled up, revealing that even a powerful man like Old Master Nangong could have a shadow cast in his heart by a past snake bite for a whole decade.
"If Old Master does not trust my character, why not wait until I help you catch the mole in your Nangong family before we talk further?"
Chu Ge spoke up.
Old Master Nangong looked at Chu Ge in astonishment, not understanding the meaning of his words.
Chu Ge chuckled lightly and said, "Do you really think that your declining health over the years is simply because of your body failing?"
Old Master Nangong was stunned, then fell silent. He had indeed considered the possibility of being poisoned and controlled, but he could not fathom who would not want his life yet make him feel like his life was endangered. He really didn’t understand the deeper meaning behind it.
"So, you are sure that there is a problem within our Nangong family?" Old Master Nangong still held a slight hope—not daring to be sure about others, but at least he believed that his own children would not harm him this way.
