Chapter 423: Nan Kang Comes Knocking on the Door

The thesis was probably the most anxious test for all the students.
From choosing materials to writing, to checking the source of the materials, and so on, every step could make one bald.
In order to complete the thesis, Murong Qiao had been studying it whenever she was free these few days and didn’t have the time to care about the outside world.
She naturally didn’t know that Nan Kang had designs on her after being separated for so many days.
In the afternoon, the employees were originally taking a nap. Staring at the scorching sunlight that almost blinded them, the security officer standing at the entrance of the CG company wiped his sweat.
Just as he was looking forward to the next person to take over his work and rest for a while, he saw a sloppy man walking over.
“Hello, sir. Do you have an appointment-” The security officer frowned and reached out, planning to stop the other party.
Before asking about the other party’s intentions, no one was allowed to enter the company.
“I’m looking for my daughter! Why do I need an appointment!” That person replied impatiently.
With that, he didn’t say anything to the security officer and rushed in with his head lowered.
The security officer had seen many such people. He stood at the gate like an iron wall and looked at the strange man in front of him with a cold face.
Then who’s your daughter? If you don’t have an appointment, I need to call to confirm first.” The security officer knew the rules.
He explained the process to the man according to the rules. At the same time, he couldn’t help but guess which employee’s father was so rude.
“Confirm what? My daughter is Murong Qiao. It’s only right for me to come to her company! If you stop me, I’ll get her to fire you!”
As he spoke, Nan Kang fiddled with his hair in frustration, wanting to let this pig-headed security officer see his face clearly.
He didn’t expect a small security officer to bully him now. He immediately wanted to barge in.
However, Nan Kang strode forward and was about to use all his strength when he was pushed back by the security officer. In fact, because his force was too great, it backfired on him and he fell to the ground.
Nan Kang’s expression immediately turned ugly.
These few days, he had been staying at home and squandering the money Nan Xuan had left behind before he left. With his alcoholism and ambition, the money that was originally enough for Nan Kang to live normally for a period of time had disappeared in just a few days.
However, Nan Kang originally thought that Nan Xuan would be more tactful.
Even if his son had left and was no longer by his side, Nan Kang would still stay at home confidently and wait for the money to come knocking on his door.
But as the days passed, the notice for the utility bills were pasted on the door.
In fact, the old friends who had lent him money had even knocked on the door to visit. Nan Kang really couldn’t stand it anymore, so he came to look for Murong Qiao.
After all, she was the daughter he had raised for more than ten years. Now that she had returned to the Murong Family and lived a good life, she turned around and abandoned him. When Nan Kang saw the imposing company in front of him, he felt that Murong Qiao was simply heartless.
“I said that I’m looking for my daughter. Don’t you understand human language? I’m her father! Why are you stopping me?!” Nan Kang was extremely unyielding the moment he opened his mouth.
If not for the fact that he couldn’t find Murong Qiao’s house, why would Nan Kang let himself be reduced to being entangled with a security officer?
However, the security officer stood firmly at the door. “I’m sorry, I need to confirm your identity first.”
He said it tactfully, but his body had already indicated that he did not intend to let Nan Kang in.
Moreover, there was something else that the security officer couldn’t say. He just looked at Nan Kang with disgust.
How could such a sloppy man who smelled of alcohol be Miss Murong’s father?
In his opinion, he looked more like a beggar on the street.
Or a pile of mud.
However, Nan Kang refused to give up. He occupied the door and shouted that he wanted to go in. Moreover, he was firm in his words and wouldn’t let go.
The security officer didn’t want him to affect the company’s image, so he reported this matter to Jiang Chi.
“Mr. Jiang, someone at the gate said that he’s Boss’s father…” The security officer described.
Jiang Chi’s calm voice came from the other end of the phone. “Alright, I understand. Leave this matter to me. Don’t let that person in.”
He ended the call.
After hearing the name Nan Kang, he flipped through his memories and had an impression.
It should be a family matter involving Murong Qiao, so Jiang Chi couldn’t make the decision to interfere with Nan Kang.
But unfortunately, Murong Qiao didn’t come to the company today.
He immediately dialed Murong Qiao’s phone number.
“Beep—Beep—” The dial tone sounded.
The cell phone was vibrating in the crack of the sofa, trying to attract Murong Qiao’s attention.
However, Murong Qiao didn’t even look at it. Her right hand was still on the mouse, and her left hand was free to fumble around her side for a long time before she found her cell phone.
Murong Qiao turned her head and clamped the phone between her ear and shoulder. “Hello?”
“I’m Jiang Chi, Boss.” The other party reported his name.
Murong Qiao’s eyes were fixed on the computer screen, still picking at the details. She only responded vaguely after hearing Jiang Chi’s voice.
What’s the matter? If it’s not something urgent, email me.” Murong Qiao frowned and deleted a paragraph.
Writing a thesis was troublesome. Although she was not a copycat, dealing with plagiarism checks, she couldn’t help but feel troubled after facing this natural enemy of all students
Murong Qiao nestled on the comfortable sofa at home. She simply wanted to turn into a salted fish and rot.
If An Nuo was here, she would probably say that Murong Qiao’s expression was even worse than a bitter gourd.
“…It’S an urgent matter,” Jiang Chi replied after a moment of silence.
He knew that his boss had been extremely annoyed by her thesis for the past few days, but considering that Nan Kang had come to the company to cause trouble, Jiang Chi tried his best to keep it short and explain this matter to Murong Qiao.
…Nan Kang is at the entrance of the company?”
When Murong Qiao heard this, her fingers on the keyboard stopped typing.
“Got it. I’ll go to the company immediately.”
After exchanging a few words with Jiang Chi, Murong Qiao closed her computer and stood up to get her coat. She put on her windbreaker and shoes with an ugly expression and hurriedly left.
Meanwhile, Jiang Chi looked at the empty phone screen and only hesitated for
a moment before calling another number he was all too familiar with.
The security officers and Nan Kang were still frozen at the entrance of the company.
“You can’t go up there.”
The security officer didn’t know how many times he had repeated this sentence to Nan Kang.
However, Nan Kang was stubborn and didn’t bother to communicate with the other party at all. When he realized that he couldn’t dissuade the security officer, he stayed at the gate shamelessly. From the looks of it, he was waiting for someone to come.
The security officer remembered his duty at all times. He stood at the gate and did not give Nan Kang any chance. The way he stared at him was simply guarded.
Who the f*ck are you? Do you really think you can stop me… Wait for my daughter to come…” Nan Kang cursed.
Nan Hao’s words were dirty. Nan Kang used Murong Qiao’s name to intimidate the security officer in an attempt to scare him away. Seeing that it didn’t work at all, he feinted and wanted to charge in.
But this time, before he could reach the door, there was a weight on his shoulder. Then, Nan Kang lost his balance and was pulled to the side by the force behind him, almost falling.
Nan Kang panicked. “Are you blind? Can’t you see that there’s a person in front of you—”
He did not finish scolding. The rest of his words were swallowed back into his stomach when he met a pair of calm and cold eyes, as if he was a little afraid of the deep emotions in them.
Murong Chen gestured for the bodyguard to let go of his hand and looked at
Nan Kang. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, making him look especially cold. His smiling eyes landed on Nan Kang, causing a chill to run down his spine..
