Both Zheng Lunlun and Nan Xing looked extremely childish as they high-fived each other to celebrate their victory.
“What happened to you? How did you get sick all of a sudden? Are you okay?” Nan Xing asked worriedly.
Oh, now he remembers that he’s here to visit me? I can’t believe he completely forgot about that when they were
fighting earlier! Ning Ran thought to herself.
“What are you guys doing here?” Ning Ran asked.
“We’re here to pay you a visit, duh!” Nan Xing said.
“Really? I thought you guys came here to fight.”
“Hey, we had to teach that a**hole a lesson! That guy has slept with countless actresses! You must stay away from
him, okay?” Nan Xing said.
“Yeah! Stay as far away from him as possible!” Zheng Lunlun added.
“We were never close, to begin with, so you don’t have to remind me of that. Besides, you’ve slept with quite a lot
of actresses yourself, Nan Xing! I’ve heard a lot of stories about you too!” Ning Ran said.
“Those are just rumors! I know there are scandals involving me and some of those actresses, but they were the
ones who came after me! As a normal guy, I have no reason to reject their advances! In order to not break their
fragile hearts, I had no choice but to hang out with them, and that’s how those scandals came about!”
He then turned towards Zheng Lunlun. “Isn’t that right?”
“That’s right. Uncle Xing was framed! Ouyang Qi is the real scumbag! He’s got a pretty nasty reputation in the
entertainment industry too!” Zheng Lunlun added.
These two are birds of the same feather…
“Okay, that’s enough talking about that guy. I don’t like him either, but I am curious as to how he knows I’m here,”
Ning Ran said.
“I’ll tell my brother to keep him away from you.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“No, it’s not that big of a problem anyway. Telling him will only make things more complicated.” Ning Ran tried to
dissuade him.
“How about we drop this meaningless conversation and get started now?” Zheng Lunlun whipped out his phone.
“Start what?”
“The game, duh! It’s not often that we have so much free time to hang out together, you know? Come on, let’s play
a few rounds!”
“No, not after you called me a noob!” Nan Xing refused.
“I wasn’t asking you! Come on, Ding Mi!”
“I’ll pass too. I’m sick, remember?”
“No, you have to! I want Uncle Xing to see how much of a Computer Guru you are!”
The real Computer Guru is in school right now… Ning Ran thought to herself.
At the Yunfeng Temple.
Nan Zhengde was having vegetarian dishes for dinner.
Although it was against the temple’s rules to eat after noon, Most of the monks there did a lot of manual labor
during the day and had no choice but to eat.
Nan Zhengde didn’t have a huge appetite, so he would just eat something light when he joined them for dinner.
Nan Zhiyuan cautiously helped him out, trying to look as filial as possible after being allowed to stay by his side.
“How are things with the high-ranking official? The General told me during the banquet that the high-ranking official
came over to Flower City for an inspection. He wanted Chen to welcome the official, but Chen wasn’t around at the
time. This is such an important thing, so how could Chen be so irresponsible? What’s gotten into him?” Nan
Zhengde asked Nan Zhiyuan.
He saw how Nan Zhiyuan was hesitant to speak and pressed on, “Do you know anything about this?”
“Well, I did hear a thing or two, but I’m not really sure what happened. It’s only been a short while since my return,
and I didn’t dare pry into the Nan family’s affairs too much,” Nan Zhiyuan said carefully.
“Stop beating around the bush and just tell me what you know!” Nan Zhengde shouted impatiently.
“I heard about this from Bai Hua, so I think she might be able to explain it better. Would you like to hear it from
her?”
“Sure, let her in.”
Bai Hua wasn’t allowed to stay in the temple at night, but visits were allowed during the day.
She was waiting outside the whole time and came straight in when Nan Zhiyuan called out to her.
She had been looking forward to this opportunity for a very long time.
“What is it, dad?” Bai Hua asked softly.
Her father was a Japanese, so she had been influenced by their culture and was very polite.
“What do you know about Chen?” Nan Zhengde asked.
“That’s the Nan family’s private affairs, and it’s inappropriate for a woman like myself to pry into it. That was the
mistake I made previously, and…”
“I’m not asking you about what happened before. Just tell me what you know.”
“I spoke to Nan Chen on the phone yesterday. He said there was a very important event today, which is to escort a
high-ranking official from the Capital. However, he had a sudden change of plans, so I was worried that something
came up and asked around about it,” Bai Hua said slowly.
“Did you manage to find anything?”
“Yes, it was because of a woman.”
“A woman? What woman?”
“The actress who gave birth to his two kids.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Ning Ran? Apart from her not-so-ideal background, she’s actually quite pretty and would probably make a good
match for him. If Chen likes her, and they already have kids of their own, then it should be fine for them to be
together,” Nan Zhengde said.
Bai Hua was shocked to hear that. Nan Zhengde is on Ning Ran’s side? Despite him being a reasonable person, he
isn’t one to be trifled with. I thought someone of his age would be so fixated on finding someone with a matching
background, and yet here he is saying he’s okay with it?
“That was what I thought as well, but then I did some digging and found out more information about her. There
seems to be more to her than meets the eye,” Bai Hua said with a frown.
“What do you mean?”
“Take what happened today for example. Chen had originally planned to escort the official, but then something
happened to Ning Ran while she was on set. She then gave Chen a call and told him to drop whatever he was doing
to go and see her. Chen was reluctant and told her that he had something really important to take care of, but Ning
Ran insisted and even threatened to kill herself if he didn’t do as she asked. Chen, being the kind-hearted person
that he is, gave in to her threats and rushed over to see her,” added Bai Hua.
Nan Zhengde was enraged when he heard that. “What? How could she be so unreasonable?”
“I too, find it hard to believe. However, that appears to be the case here,” Bai Hua said.
“Looks like I’ll have to find out more about Ning Ran, then. Such behavior is unacceptable!” Nan Zhengde said
angrily.
“Although I’m no longer allowed to interfere with the Nan family’s affairs, I am still concerned about my son, Chen.
As such, I made use of our resources to find out more about Ning Ran. The things she has done in the past are
simply shocking to say the least.”
