Ouyang Nan sighed with relief, but Shanxue followed up with a smile, “I've already sent my men to check”
Ouyang Nan exploded with anger “Qian Shanxue you bastard! If you mess with my family, your head's mine!”
There was a knowing look to Shanxue's eyes He chuckled, “Oh? If you really have nothing to hide, why do you sound so guilty?”
Ouyang Nan was about to argue, but Mieqin held him back He said coldly, “Qian Shanxue, if you have any evidence, then show 'e around the bush?”
