Chapter 2060 The situation is very delicate!
Nangong Shou didn't rush over to recognize him and show his goodwill.
I just feel that Lu Fan, this ostentatious tree, is about to be cut in half by external forces.
As an insignificant branch of the Nangong family, there was no need for him to get involved in the dispute between Lu Fan and those people. He just wanted to avoid being implicated.
But now, seeing Lu Fan so lively and energetic, he seems to have the leisure to participate in the auction.
Nangong Shou, who always prided himself on being good at taking sides, also began to waver.
However, when he talked to Lu Fan, he did not rush to state his position, but instead made indirect comments.
He planned to reconnect with old friends and find out something from Lu Fan before making any plans.
Nangong Shou greeted:
"I've always heard from Brother Qun that Brother Lu has come to Nanshan City, but I've been on a business trip recently and not in Nanshan."
"It was only after the auction started that I took the time to come back. I didn't expect to meet Brother Lu here. It's really fate."
Nangong Shou explained subtly why he didn't contact Lu Fan when he first came to Nanshan City.
Lu Fan has always been on good terms with Nangong Qun. If it weren't for Mr. Huang's decision, Lu Fan would not have drifted away from Nangong Qun.
Now that Nangong Shou came to talk, Lu Fan did not argue with him and just said:
"There is no such thing as a busy business. Even when you came before, I didn't have time to entertain you."
The two of them laughed and joked for a while, and then Nangong Shou gradually revealed his thoughts: "I don't know which one Brother Lu has taken a fancy to. Tell me in advance, so that when the auction comes later, I can ask the people below to avoid it."
Lu Fan thought, when the time comes, everyone will bid together and everything will be clear at a glance, so if there is anything, just give warning in advance and avoid it.
In Lu Fan's opinion, the reason why Nangong Shou asked this question was simply because he wanted to know in advance which piece of land he was going to bid for, and then consider whether to take a gamble, or if there was no need, just pretend to give it up.
Lu Fan had heard about his cousin who loved to play tricks and be clever from Nangong Qun, so he chose to laugh it off in his answer:
"I'm a newcomer here, I'm just wandering around and looking around, I don't have the time to bid on anything."
Nangong Shou would never believe Lu Fan's lies. Seeing that Lu Fan didn't answer, he became a little anxious. Now he didn't mind giving Lu Fan some information:
"I think I know that Brother Lu has been restless recently. Is the boss having a weird temper lately?"
Lu Fan's heart skipped a beat when he heard Nangong Shou's words.
I wondered if Nangong Shou knew something, otherwise why would he ask this question.
Who else could the "superior" he was referring to be? It could be Mr. Huang who promoted the Nangong family.
Lu Fan was very concerned about what Mr. Huang had planned, but there was no need for him to let Nangong Shou know about this.
So he pretended to be calm, even smiled, and said to Nangong Shou calmly:
"Oh really? I didn't think so."
Nangong Shou saw that Lu Fan was not going to release the eagle until he saw the rabbit, so he gritted his teeth and told the secret that was kept secret at home:
"Brother Lu, are you testing me? What else could it be? The good seedling that Mr. Huang liked went out to have some fun and died at the hands of a woman. Everyone in the family knows about this now."
"I don't believe that my brother didn't tell you. Because of this, even my brother was scolded by the elders in the family."
Nangong Shou said this while measuring Lu Fan's expression.
The brother he was referring to was naturally Nangong Qun.
Nangong Qun used to get along well with Lu Fan, and there was even a time when he wanted to leave the Nangong family and work on his own with Lu Fan.
But ever since Mr. Huang approached the Nangong family again and chose another faction of the Nangong family to support them again.
Mr. Huang wanted to choose someone who suited his taste to speak to external affairs, but this would lead to an obvious conflict with Lu Fan.
Nangong Qun's situation was very delicate at the beginning. In the end, the identity of his family forced Nangong Qun to withdraw from Lu Fan's side and return to the Nangong family.
However, this step back did not change the situation of Nangong Qun's faction.
In addition, due to Mr. Huang's deliberate actions, Nangong Qun's faction has been both defeated and attacked in the past six months.
I don’t know if it was Mr. Huang’s instruction.
It was precisely because of this that after the successor chosen by Mr. Huang got into trouble.
Nangong Qun was identified as a "black sheep". He must have helped Lu Fan to make the plan and executed him without prior consent.
Then, neither Lu Fan nor Nangong Qun had expected this scene.
In other words, Lu Fan had already guessed what the drama was all about. Only Nangong Qun, because he was a "fence-sitter", was in a difficult situation.
After listening to Nangong Shou's words, Lu Fan knew what was going to happen, and it was no longer of any use to him.
After a few words, he sent Nangong Shou away.
Jiang Manyue also came back at this time, holding the wine glass and whispered:
"Why, you didn't have a good chat?"
Lu Fan smiled and shook his head:
"No, we had a pleasant conversation! It's just that Nangong Shou brought some good news."
