Chapter 650 - 0652: Ruined by You
In the study, a man over fifty in a Zhongshan suit stood resolutely in front of a glass window, his gaze fixed forward, seemingly lost in thought.
Hearing movement behind him, he turned and asked, "The criticism meeting is over so quickly? Big brother, your habit of lecturing people hasn’t changed one bit."
It wasn’t until he had finished speaking that he noticed Chu Ge standing at the doorway, which briefly surprised him.
Nangong Sanli had seen Chu Ge’s photo from the man in the mask, so he recognized him at once. However, he feigned ignorance, asking suspiciously, "Who are you? The study is my big brother’s private place; ordinary people cannot barge in."
His tone carried a hint of severity.
"I am Chu Ge." Chu Ge introduced himself simply. His unwavering gaze swept around the study. He didn’t notice anything suspicious, and even the spot where the Earth Ganoderma was stored showed no signs of tampering.
A flicker of suspicion crossed Chu Ge’s mind. He had no connection to Nangong Sanli. Moreover, in the Nangong Family, aside from Mr. Nangong, anyone could be the mastermind. Nangong Sanli’s presence in the study at this time compelled Chu Ge to consider that possibility.
"Third Old Master?" Chu Ge said, his tone laced with uncertainty, "Mr. Nangong is downstairs holding a family meeting. Why don’t you go down and listen?"
Nangong Sanli let out a smile. He walked over to the sofa, sat down, and sighed with self-mockery, "It’s just squabbles among the children. What’s the point of an old man like me getting involved? Besides, I no longer manage the Nangong Family’s internal affairs."
He gestured to the sofa opposite him, "Mr. Chu, are you here to see my big brother? Please, take a seat; his family meetings can last quite a while."
