My Five Bigshot Seniors: I am The Most Coddled Junior!-Chapter 75 - 27: Conditions
Nali was upset about her slip of the tongue, not expecting Zhuo Tingqiu to admit it directly. She glanced at Na Yan, swallowed hard, and spoke with difficulty, "Not really, it’s just that I happened to be nearby yesterday and heard others discussing it. I paid more attention because I dislike Yier."
She also heard others say that not only was Yier’s ear cut off, but Yi Ao’s guards were also dealt with using a talisman, but she didn’t dare to say it.
"That Yier you mentioned isn’t very smart, he even badmouthed Little Qingqing and wanted to kill us, we had no choice but to make him suffer a bit!" Yun Ran still disliked Yier greatly, she pursed her lips and said disdainfully.
In her view, cutting off Yier’s ear was already lenient. If it weren’t for not wanting Little Qingqing to see their cold-blooded side, Senior Brother Si would probably have taken Yier’s life directly!
Seeing Yun Ran speak so lightly, although she knew she shouldn’t, Nali still couldn’t suppress showing a look of envy. She also really wanted to beat up Yier!
Unlike Nali, Na Yan, as the head of a family, quickly thought that Yier’s ear being cut off would certainly not go unchallenged by the Yi Family, given their nature. They must have done something to anger Zhuo Tingqiu and the others later.
"Last night, people from the Yi Family broke into our residence!" Seeing Na Yan’s expression, Zhuo Tingqiu knew what Na Yan had guessed, and he pointed it out directly.
Upon hearing this, a trace of surprise flashed in Na Yan’s eyes, and his understanding of Zhuo Tingqiu rose to a new level.
"Family Head Na, how about it? Do you agree with our proposal?" Worried that Si Lin and the others would get impatient, seeing that the discussion was almost complete, Zhuo Tingqiu asked again.
"The terms offered by Young Master Zhuo are very enticing, but I want to know what our Na Family needs to do, or rather, what the Zhuo Family needs to give up?" Na Yan, not dizzy with excitement over the incredible offer, asked very seriously.
Zhuo Tingqiu had actually been observing Na Yan’s reaction all along. Now hearing that Na Yan didn’t immediately agree, and was still clear-headed, he nodded internally, very satisfied with Na Yan’s reaction.
"You don’t have to do anything. I know that the once-every-three-years family competition in Bi Qiu City is coming up. Before that, we will help you resolve your family’s troubles and enhance your strength. You just need to win against the Yi Family in the competition to become the number one family in Bi Qiu City," Zhuo Tingqiu sat up straight, presenting the best part very earnestly to Na Yan.
Na Yan was once again incredulous. These terms were simply too tempting for them!
"Family Head Na, you don’t need to reply in a hurry. The competition is still ten days away, and during this time, we will stay in Bi Qiu City, waiting for your response. You also don’t need to worry that if you don’t agree, we will do something to your Na Family. This is merely our strategy to deal with the Yi Family." Having laid out the conditions, Zhuo Tingqiu said the purpose of today’s meeting was fulfilled, and he stood to leave.
The others stood up alongside him, and Na Yan did the same.
"I will consider this matter carefully, regardless of the outcome. I am thankful that Young Master Zhuo is willing to give us this opportunity." Na Yan spoke genuinely, with the terms proposed by Zhuo Tingqiu, they could choose other families in Bi Qiu City, but they chose the Na Family, which was an acknowledgment in itself.
Zhuo Tingqiu nodded, and Na Yan and Nali accompanied Zhuo Tingqiu and his group to the door.
The two watched Zhuo Tingqiu and his entourage leave, only turning back once they were a hundred meters away.
"Father, with such good terms proposed by Young Master Zhuo, why didn’t you agree immediately?" Nali had wanted to ask this for a while, but she held back because Zhuo Tingqiu and his group were present. Now that they had left, she couldn’t wait any longer to ask.
"This is a big matter that requires careful consideration," Na Yan said affectionately, looking at his daughter. "Don’t worry, even without Young Master Zhuo’s help, I won’t marry you off to Yier either!"
"Father." Nali looked at Na Yan, deeply moved, and her eyes quickly turned red.
Seeing his daughter about to cry, Na Yan panicked for a moment. He was about to comfort her when hurried footsteps sounded from behind, and someone called his name, forcing him to stop and turn around with Nali to see who had come.
"Family Head, someone from the Yi family is here." The newcomer was the Na Family’s doorman, who looked rather anxious, his forehead sweaty, and his expression somewhat fearful.
"Who has come?" Na Yan’s expression immediately turned cold as he asked.
"It’s the Yi Family’s chief steward." The doorman flinched slightly as he replied.
Na Yan was briefly surprised, then quickly calmed down, taking a deep breath, "Take him to my study."
"Yes, Family Head." Relieved at not being scolded, the doorman heaved a sigh of relief, responded, and hurriedly turned to run to the door.
"Father, what is the Yi Family’s chief steward doing here?" Nali asked with a frown, clearly not fond of the Yi Family people.
"You needn’t worry. Didn’t you say you wanted to go out? It’s getting late, hurry up and go. Leave this matter to me," Na Yan said gently, patting her head, not wanting Nali to get involved.
Nali’s mouth moved, wanting to stay, but knowing her father’s nature, his words clearly meant he didn’t want her to know. If she insisted on staying, he’d surely get angry. So she rolled her eyes, changed her attitude, nodded obediently, and left.
After Nali left, Na Yan’s expression immediately turned cold, and he walked towards his study.
As for Nali, she didn’t really go out but went to her second brother Na Qi’s courtyard to tell him about Zhuo Tingqiu’s visit and the Yi Family’s chief steward’s arrival.
Na Qi, preoccupied with the family competition, wasn’t aware of all the happenings. Hearing Nali’s words, he too was very surprised.
"Are you saying that among those Yier offended in the street yesterday were people from the Zhuo and Yun Families, two of the five great families, and that the Yi Family didn’t give up and tried to kill them last night, but got caught? Now, the Young Master of the Zhuo Family and the Miss of the Yun Family have come to our family wanting to support us to suppress the Yi Family?" Na Qi asked wide-eyed, unable to believe it.
Nali nodded, indicating that it was all true.
"Father hasn’t agreed yet, saying he’ll consider it." Mentioning this, Nali felt a bit frustrated, thinking her father should just accept Zhuo Tingqiu’s proposal so they could teach the Yi Family a lesson!
