Chapter 643 Are You Crazy
In Livingsfill, Ning Ran finally got a break. The sun shone brightly as she reclined on a lounge chair in the yard,
reading her script.
The production team was filming at Livingsfill at the moment, but Ning Ran didn’t return to work immediately.
Instead, she took a break for a few days to recover.
Cheng Xiangyun left the film site and immediately returned to update Ning Ran about the latest happenings in the
production team. Ning Ran figured she could still get another day off from Cheng Xiangyun’s report.
Ning Ran leaned back against the seat and closed her eyes, feeling the warmth of the sun on her skin and the
peacefulness of the moment.
Living safely and peacefully is the happiest life one can have.
“Cheng, the losses will be around hundreds of thousands per day if I delay the filming, right?”
“Yep, it’s around that amount. Don’t worry about it, though, since your Sir Chen is holding the fort. Even if the losses
are millions per day, it’s still no biggie.” Cheng Xiangyun chuckled.
“What do you mean by my Sir Chen? He’s not mine. We don’t know who he belongs to,” Ning Ran denied.
“What’s wrong? Why are you acting cold and denying it? Both of you went through hell and back, so I thought you
guys should have already warmed up to each other. Oh right! How did you guys escape? Why aren’t you willing to
tell us the specifics?”
Cheng Xiangyun had always been a gossiper. There was no way she would drop such a juicy topic.
“Nan Chen won’t let me,” Ning Ran answered truthfully.
“Why? Why is he asking you to stay silent about it? Of course, you can’t tell others. That’s because they’re
outsiders, but I’m different. I, on the other hand, am your friend, so tell me. I promise you this stays between us. It’s
the perfect time to tell me now since there’s no one around. No one will know,” Cheng Xiangyun urged softly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIt wasn’t like Ning Ran didn’t believe in Cheng Xiangyun, but she thought that there must be a reason why Nan Chen
wanted her to keep it a secret.
However, Cheng Xiangyun was her best friend. What kind of best friend was she if she kept a secret from her?
“I’ll tell you the gist of it, but don’t ask for the details, especially the ones that concern the Nan family,” Ning Ran
warned.
Cheng Xiangyun agreed instantly, “Sure! Tell me already!”
“It was mainly Nan Chen taking advantage of the boatman’s greed. The boatman asked the Nan family to give him
a hundred thousand and, during that process, exposed his personal information. Nan Chen then used that as a
threat to have them send us back to Gerton’s border, and that was where we got to shore. We were lucky after that
since we met a cultured family and spent the night there. The couple was a pair of high school teachers. After
hearing about our encounter, they searched the web for Nanshi Corporation and confirmed our identity. However,
we didn’t dare to contact any of the Nan family members impulsively for fear of the mole within the Nan family.
Nan Chen worried we would expose our whereabouts if we got ahold of the Nan family. Hence Nan Chen borrowed
the teacher’s computer and sent an email to Zheng Lunlun, then had Zheng Lunlun inform the Nan family of our
hiding spot. Things were straightforward after that. Under the Nan family’s coordination, Nan Chen secretly
returned to Flower City while I came to Livingsfill to meet up with you.”
Cheng Xiangyun listened with relish. “Woah, that’s so exciting! It’s like you’re part of a TV show! An incident like this
can actually happen in reality?”
Ning Ran rolled her eyes at her. “We almost died, yet you think that’s exciting? You don’t feel the same way we do
because you didn’t experience it yourself. Why don’t you give it a try?”
“I want to, but I’m not that lucky. Oh my goodness! Being stuck on an island with a handsome and rich guy is just so
romantic! Dying would be worth it if I could have one chance like that!” Cheng Xiangyun exclaimed.
“Please leave. What is more important than life in this world? We were hanging onto life by a thread. Do you even
understand what that entails?”
Ning Ran felt fear pumping through her as she recalled her precarious situation a few days ago.
“Well, one is bound for good fortune after surviving a great catastrophe. You guys survived all that, so you’re fine. I
see now. Sir Chen asked you not to say anything because he is worried it would reveal to the public that there is a
mole in the Nan family. It’s not even an assumption at this point. The fact that something like that still happened
despite the tight security in the Nan residence merely showed that someone had knowledge of your whereabouts
and planned everything accordingly. That was how the mole got you guys to fall for it. Who do you think is the mole
within the Nan family?”
Ning Ran refused to answer that question. “Hold it. This is not a topic that you and I should discuss. I, as a victim,
don’t even dare to offer any opinion on this matter, much less you, an outsider. Do you know how sensitive this
subject is?”
“You’re right. Since the Nan family are a part of high society, even a tiny issue is considered a serious matter to
them. We shouldn’t even be talking about it, but I’m curious. There must be someone on your mind. Who do you
think it is?” Cheng Xiangyun questioned.
“I have no idea, and even if I do, I won’t say it aloud without any proof. The Nan family will find out the truth soon,
so an outsider like me doesn’t have to be worried on their behalf.”
After spending time with Nan Chen, Ning Ran learned to be cautious.
Despite Ning Ran having put a full stop to the conversation, Cheng Xiangyun still wasn’t satisfied with the lack of
answers. She was displeased but couldn’t do anything about it.
“One more thing. I got acquainted with an incredible person, along with two incredible children,” Cheng Xiangyun
said with a mysterious tone.

“Incredible children? There are children more incredible than my Dabao and Erbao?” Ning Ran asked jokingly.
“They’re almost the same. They’re incredible because they’re slightly similar to Erbao. Sometimes, I even wonder if
Sir Chen has another pair of female twins running around outside—”
Cheng Xiangyun suddenly paused midsentence.
However, it was already too late. Ning Ran leaped to her feet. “What did you say?”
“I’m just blabbering. Don’t overreact. It’s scary,” Cheng Xiangyun said with worry in her voice.
“Nan Chen has another pair of daughters running around freely outside? He’s doing pretty well, huh? Leaving his
legacy everywhere he goes, no?” Ning Ran hissed.
“Hey, don’t simply speculate without any proof. Didn’t I say it was only a joke? It’s just a joke!”
“Then what exactly happened?”
“Remember how the lady boss of the inn wasn’t around before? She suddenly returned one day, and she was
beautiful. She was truly beautiful! Even from a woman’s perspective, she’s the kind that has a good figure, a
beautiful face, and an excellent temperament. I think her temperament is even better than yours.”
Ning Ran gave her the stink eye. “Why are you comparing me to her? I’m special! You don’t have to put me and her
together for comparison!”
“Fine. You’re special but listen to me. She also has a pair of twins. The only difference is the twins are girls. The girls
take after her maiden name. One is Lu Yunxue, and the other is Lu Yunbing. They’re pretty as a doll and don’t lose
to Erbao or Dabao in terms of appearances.”
“You’re comparing my children with other children? Are you crazy? Will it kill you if you don’t compare? Can we
even have a proper conversation?”
Ning Ran was mostly mad because Cheng Xiangyun said the twin girls might be Nan Chen’s children earlier.
“Don’t scold me, okay? What? We can’t even talk now?” Cheng Xiangyun started to get angry too.
“You’re the one asking to be scolded. Stop comparing my children and me with other people. It’s irritating!”
