Chapter 440: Chapter 440 Highlight Moment 3

Although sometimes she felt that He Nan treated her as if she were his own daughter, ever since the last time he clarified his stance, she hadn’t thought of it that way.

She never expected that Li Yue and Ruan Yiyang would have this kind of misconception.

But...she could accept He Nan thinking of her as a daughter in his mind, but it was another matter in form.

For her to acknowledge He Nan as her godfather, she really couldn’t accept that.

After all, they were only a few years apart; acknowledging a godfather was truly too exaggerated.

He Nan: "..."

Godfather?

They really came up with that one.

He pursed his lips, his face expressionless, inscrutable, as he picked up his teacup and took a sip of water under the gaze of the three of them, looking completely composed.

Shen Mianmian blinked, waiting for his response.

Li Yue and Ruan Yiyang, however, suddenly felt a shiver run down their spines. In their view, He Nan’s expression was too eerie at the moment; they had a premonition of an impending storm.

Especially Ruan Yiyang, he was starting to regret what he had said.

He always felt He Nan’s expression was strange, giving him the urge to flee.

In truth, Ruan Yiyang hadn’t always been so submissive to He Nan; it was because of an incident that happened when he was a child.

He was quite mischievous as a child, a true troublemaker, whereas He Nan was unnaturally mature for his age. While he was still running around with a bamboo stick, He Nan was already acting like a little adult.

At that time, he really didn’t like He Nan, thinking that He Nan was just trying to act cool.

Thus, he displayed the full potential of a troublemaker, constantly seeking attention and trying to provoke He Nan in front of him, but He Nan simply ignored him, until one time when he went too far and got a thorough beating for it, and then he dared not provoke him again.

But, recognizing He Nan as his boss was due to another incident that happened in elementary school. He remembered some petty thugs in the neighborhood noticing his neat attire and fair complexion, a clear sign of a wealthy family, who then wanted to extort some pocket money from him.

But he was defiant and refused to give in. Once, he was cornered against a wall and beaten black and blue. Just as his head was spinning and he thought he was going to be beaten to death, He Nan happened to pass by.

Stubborn as he was, he refused to cry out for help. At the time, he thought He Nan would ignore his plight, but unexpectedly, He Nan charged in and ended up fighting the hoodlums.

Although He Nan had learned some self-defense at home from an early age, the attackers were three teenagers around sixteen or seventeen; the fight wasn’t easy, but the daunting aura he exhibited ultimately scared them off.

It was from that time on that he began to idolize He Nan, willingly following him as an underling until He Nan enlisted.

Thinking back, the last time he saw He Nan showing that expression was at least seven or eight years ago.

His thoughts returning to the present, Ruan Yiyang looked at He Nan’s current demeanor with his heart in his throat, feeling like he had walked into a trap set by Li Yue.

Not only had he lost his belongings, but he was also about to get a dressing-down from He Nan.

Just as he was about to say something to save himself, he heard He Nan suddenly ask, "Where did you get the idea that I want to be her godfather?"

Shen Mianmian: "..."

Ruan Yiyang: "..."

Li Yue: "..."

After waiting for so long and sweating bullets, He Nan turned out to be so unaffected?

The three of them were at a loss, hanging in suspense.

Li Yue, sensing something amiss, didn’t dare to speak anymore. At this stage, Ruan Yiyang had no choice but to brazen it out.

"He Nan, we all felt you treated this girl differently. Didn’t you give Li Yue a stern look when he suggested she be your god-sister before?"
