1527: Heading to D Country

Heading to D Country

"Boss, something happened in Naboo."1

Hearing that something happened in Naboo, the hairs on Nuannuan's body stood up and her heart tightened.

"What happened to him?"

Aiden was startled for a moment before realizing that Chi Yang had yet to return from Naboo. "Boss, it's not about Bro-in-law. It's about our Phoenix Pavilion."

Nuannuan, who straightened her back instantly, slouched back down in relief. She nestled in the folds of her soft blanket comfortably and took a sip of yogurt before asking, "What's up?"

To her, nothing could be too concerning no matter how severe the issue was, especially when it came to work-related matters.

The only thing that mattered to her, constantly, was her Big Brother Chi Yang.

"Wei Du and Pang Long are locked in a fierce battle, and both sides are equally matched. The situation in Naboo is getting more and more chaotic. Pang Long plundered the Naboo's treasury before he left, and the remaining funds have been decreasing in the past month ever since the fight started."

"So, that old fart, Wei Du, has taken a fancy to our Phoenix Pavilion?"

While Aiden was still relishing in telling the tale, Nuannuan blurted out what would happen next.

"...yes."

"So, he plans to lay a hand on my Phoenix Pavilion?"

"He didn't say it explicitly, nor did he try to steal it openly, but he got the person-in-charge to give you a call, saying that he wanted to invite you to a banquet. That's the reason I called—if you don't want to go, I'll turn down his offer. After all, the advanced weapons in their arsenal are all provided by Imperial Phoenix Armament Group."

Imperial Phoenix Armament Group was the largest firearms merchant in Sab. When some small countries could not obtain advanced weapons from another country, most of them would approach Imperial Phoenix Armament Group because this company that parked under Imperial Phoenix group was the largest firearms dealer in the world.

Therefore, it did not matter if Nangong Nuannuan chose not to attend the banquet. If Wei Du wanted to target Phoenix Pavilion, then Sab would simply stop providing him with weapons.

"Sure, I'll go."

It turned out that Aiden was ready to be turned down. He was shocked when his boss actually agreed to the invitation.

"Boss, you just want to see Bro-in-law, don't you?"

Nuannuan instantly broke into a smile.

"Yeah, how did you guess?"

Aiden, "..." It was not that hard to guess, was it?

"Then… I'll inform Wei Du about that?"

"Sure."

"Then, when are you free to see Wei Du?"

"Anytime."

Aiden, "…"

Realizing that he would not be able to get answers from Nuannuan today, Aiden continued, "Let's plan the meetup when we're actually there."

"Sure."

"Then… when are we leaving? Who are we bringing?"

"You and Big Sis Yue have plenty to keep yourselves busy here. You two should stay here. I'll bring Dan Qi and Selina with me."

Aiden brooded on that decision and asked worriedly, "Just the three of you?"

"Yeah."

"But all three of you don't know anything about the company, and you often make decisions on a whim. Are you sure you can talk business with Wei Du?"

Stunned, Nuannuan replied, "Who said I wanted to talk business with him? Didn't you say that Wei Du wanted to treat me to a meal? Then, I'll go have a meal and come back."

"…Boss, bringing them along for a meal isn't your goal, isn't it? You just want to see Bro-in-law, right? I should go with you guys!" How did this plan end up sounding so unreliable?

"Alright, alright, don't be so long-winded. I'm the chairman of Imperial Phoenix after all. How can I sell my business for a meal? Stop being a worrywart! Consider this done."
