Chapter 647 - 0649: Can’t Make It Out
"Haha! I thought it was something serious, seeing you struggling over it for so long." The Old Master chuckled and shook his head, showing no signs of blaming Chu Ge. Chu Ge, on the other hand, felt somewhat embarrassed by Mr. Nangong’s laughter.
The laughter subsided, and Mr. Nangong’s expression became serious again, before he slowly said, "Young friend Chu Ge is talking about Shao Gang, right?"
Chu Ge raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised by Old Master Nangong’s straightforwardness, but he didn’t mind and nodded, "Yes, the person I’m suggesting we need to guard against is indeed Shao Gang. As for why, I think Mr. Nangong is well aware of the reasons."
Lightly, Chu Ge kicked the ball back into Mr. Nangong’s court regarding Shao Gang. Old Master Nangong would be cautious of him even if Chu Ge had said nothing.
He had been at the Nangong Family residence for nearly a month now, claiming to be there to treat Mr. Nangong’s illness. However, aside from performing ineffective treatments every day, Mr. Nangong’s condition had not improved at all, naturally causing Mr. Nangong to worry. If he didn’t suspect Shao Gang, he wouldn’t have sent for Chu Ge to come and treat his illness.
"So, what does young friend Chu Ge think? As the saying goes, you can be a thief for a thousand days, but you can’t guard against one for a thousand days. I’m afraid we need to find a way to catch this thief. Does Chu Ge have any good suggestions?" Mr. Nangong asked leisurely. Of course, he had a way to catch the thief, but he wanted to hear Chu Ge’s opinion. He only regretted that Chu Ge wasn’t his biological grandson; otherwise, he would have certainly groomed Chu Ge as his successor.
Blinking his eyes, although Chu Ge was surprised that Old Master Nangong was asking for his opinion, he was no ordinary person. After a moment’s surprise, he regained his composure.
After pondering for a moment, Chu Ge said, "If we are to catch the thief, why not let him walk right into our trap?"
Hearing Chu Ge’s words, Mr. Nangong’s eyes brightened a bit, since what Chu Ge suggested was hardly different from what he had in mind.
"How would he walk into our trap?" Mr. Nangong asked.
