The reason why their family can stand out from the many Nan family members is because Nan Tianyi values them and has designated them as the future successors.
In essence, they are still not direct descendants of the Nan family, but they are just luckier than other branches.
He had reasoned with his son countless times on this point.
It's just that Nan Ling is too young and has a lot of youthful energy. In addition, Nan Ling is calmer than her peers, so she always needs to be a bit better.
He could tell that Nan Ling was very rebellious against the old-fashioned ways of these families.
Apart from his usual warnings to him, Nan's father had not yet found a good opportunity to have an in-depth talk with him.
"Come and sit."
Nan's father called him over and asked the servant to serve him two cups of coffee.
When the servant brought the coffee and put it on the coffee table in front of them, Nan's father looked at the rising white smoke and turned his eyes to Nan Ling. He said, "What's the matter with you? Didn't I tell you?
,Don’t make your cousin unhappy?!”
"I didn't..." Nan Ling couldn't hold his head up after being scolded, and he was more unconvinced and impatient.
Father Nan's face was serious and his eyes were sharp: "Then why are you back at this hour?"
He knew the personalities of Nan Tianyi and Xie Tingyun, and there was no way he would not leave Nan Ling to eat.
Nan Ling had no choice but to tell everything about what happened that night, but he didn't explain it too carefully. He only vaguely said that Nan Tianyi might have asked him to leave first because of Ji Nan.
After listening to this, Father Nan was silent for a long time, then he picked up the coffee and said meaningfully to him: "Nan Ling, you are different from Mr. Ji."
Nan Ling obviously couldn't sit still when he heard this. He looked at him quickly, suppressed the urge to get up, forced himself to sit on the sofa, and lowered his head.
He seemed to acquiesce to his father's words.
But his straight back and the bulging veins on his forehead protested silently, expressing his inner dissatisfaction.
How could Nan's father be chosen by Nan Tianyi from all the Nan family members? How could he be a mediocre person? He could see through his inner thoughts at a glance. It was just because his son was older and he didn't educate his children as well as he would educate minors.
So Nan's father could only say in a soft tone: "I will go find your cousin tomorrow, and you should remember to apologize to Mr. Ji next time you meet him."
"..." Nan Ling's neck stiffened when he heard the word apology.
"In any case, you are all friends who play in the same circle. Mr. Ji is the sole heir of the Ji family. I think Emperor Ji wants to hand over the family to him in the future. I don't need to talk to you about the relationship here.
Have you analyzed it?"
After hearing this, Nan Ling couldn't say any more words of rejection. Her voice was hoarse and she reluctantly said, "I know."
Father Nan nodded with satisfaction: "It's good to know."
Immediately, seeing Nan Ling's embarrassed face, he pointed to the coffee on the coffee table and said, "Okay, drink some hot coffee to warm yourself up. The little thing you mentioned can be solved."
Nan Ling reluctantly obeyed, picked up the cup, blew on the hot air, and took a sip of coffee, but could not taste the coffee beans yet.
I heard a pattering of footsteps at the top of the stairs.
Then came the surprised voice of his mother: "Son, you are back."
Nan Ling had no choice but to put down the cup, her temples were swollen. Before her mother rushed over, she took the lead in finding a topic to divert her attention.
"I heard there are guests coming to the house?"
Sure enough, Nan's mother looked at the guest room on the second floor. The servants were still cleaning in and out. She was in a good mood and turned around to tell Nan Ling.
