Chapter 6: Don't touch others' belongings!

"Song Jing is obsessive about cleanliness. Avoid touching his stuff in the future."
The alpha's tone was filled with discontent, and he regarded Nan Yi with disdain.

Nan Yi met He Yu Shen's gaze, only to be met with indifference. He looked down without explaining that it was the butler who had instructed him to get the clothes.

He knew that no amount of explanations would suffice.

Song Jing took his seat with a hint of smugness and said sweetly, "Since Mr. Nan didn't bring his own clothes, he might as well wear this one. I have plenty more in my room."

Yan An chimed in, "Exactly, it's just an outfit. Let's eat."

He Yu Shen's brows remained furrowed as he gazed intently at the bowed head of Nan Yi. Upon hearing Yan An's words, he interrupted sharply.

"He's not your sister-in-law."

Yan An looked bewilderedly at He Yu Shen, genuinely confused. "What?"

He Yu Shen declared coldly, "He's nothing more than a deceitful thief."

Nan Yi's face grew even paler, his body stiffening, feeling like he was sitting on pins and needles.

Both Song Jing and Yan An turned their attention to Nan Yi. Though he kept his head lowered, Nan Yi felt their scrutinizing gazes.

Despite his discomfort, Nan Yi attempted to raise his head, only to meet He Yu Shen's eyes and hurriedly avert his gaze.

Song Jing asked, "Brother Shen? What's this about?"

Yan An slightly squinted, analyzing Nan Yi intently.

He Yu Shen remained silent.

Without awaiting He Yu Shen's clarification, Song Jing exclaimed with apparent realization, "He's not Nan Zhi!"

Nan Yi felt utterly embarrassed sitting at the table but couldn't just get up and leave, enduring the uncomfortable situation.

Although puzzled, Yan An still questioned with a furrowed brow, "If he's not Nan Zhi, then who? Even if the wedding photo was photoshopped, doesn't Mr. Nan... look exactly like it?"

Yan An corrected his form of address.

Song Jing too seemed baffled. Nan Yi's palms started to sweat slightly. The feeling of being scrutinized up close made him exceedingly uneasy.

"Mr. Nan? What's going on?"

Yan An cast a querying glance at Nan Yi.

Their eyes met briefly, and Nan Yi found himself at a loss for words.

The Nan family, while not minor, were nearly invisible in City A, especially since Nan Yi was considered an inferior omega.

In public, Nan Zhi Min only ever introduced the high-quality omega, Nan Zhi, and if there were any events, only Nan Zhi was ever presented.

Over time, the people of City A had forgotten that the Nan family had twins.

Elite heirs like He Yu Shen and Yan An from prominent City A families would unlikely pay any attention to the Nan household.

Yan An's confusion seemed quite natural.

Those elongated omega eyes, lifted slightly at the corners, showed coldness yet hinted at deep emotions, making He Yu Shen somewhat irritable.
