The next day, at the set of Sound of Thunder 2.
Zheng Lunlun and Ning Ran were practicing their lines with each other. Their charming appearances and superb
acting captivated everyone.
They were able to complete the filming of a scene with almost zero errors.
During their lunch break, Zheng Lunlun needed to go shoot other scenes, but he insisted on having lunch with Ning
Ran first.
Ning Ran laughed at him, “You’re a huge star and yet you choose to eat the bento provided by the film crew instead
of getting some good food outside? How shameless can you get?”
Zheng Lunlun shot back, “Know your place, woman. I’m having lunch with you here. How dare you say I’m
shamelessly eating your crew’s bento? I can afford all sorts of luxurious meals out there! I don’t need to be stealing
your cheap bento!”
“As if I need your company for lunch! It’s just bento anyway, you don’t have to eat with me!”
Zheng Lunlun got closer, “Actually, I have some things I’d like to ask you about.”
“What do you want to know?”
“I heard you went to my uncle’s office yesterday?” Zheng Lunlun asked mysteriously.
“Who told you that?”
“I may not be involved with my uncle’s work, but I do have a few friends in the office.” Zheng Lunlun said with a sly
smile.
“Yes, I was there. What about it?”
“What were you doing there?”
“Why do you want to know?”
“I’m just curious. You’re a couple with my uncle Nan Xing, so why did you go to Uncle Nan Chen’s office?” Zheng
Lunlun asked nosily.

“Why did they want to see him?” Zheng Lunlun was a real busybody.
“What kind of question is that? What reason would the children need to see him? Kids do whatever they like. They
don’t need a reason for anything, okay?” Ning Ran said.
“And I thought there was something going on between you and Uncle Nan Chen.” Zheng Lunlun said.
“That’s so nasty. What could I possibly want with Poker Face?”
“But I heard that Uncle Nan Chen had locked himself in his office and refused to come out after you left. Why is
that?”
“He must be working then. Isn’t it normal for bosses like them to be working late?”
“I don’t think so. Uncle Nan Chen is the CEO, and rarely stays up all night working. Even though he often ended up
work late, he treasures his health and won’t pull all-nighters like this. So, what happened last night must have
something to do with you.”
“Something to do with me?”
“Yeah. Such behavior is very abnormal for Uncle Nan Chen, and you happened to visit him yesterday, so you must
have something to do with this matter.”
Ning Ran stopped chewing her food, and thought about it.
“Could he have been plotting all night to get rid of me from Flower City for good?”
“He wants to get rid of you? Why?”
“Because he was fighting with me for custody of the children…” Ning Ran suddenly stopped and looked at Zheng
Lunlun.
“What now?”
“You wouldn’t happen to be a spy sent by Poker Face, would you? Are you a double agent?”
“What are you saying? Why am I a double agent?”
“Forget it; I’m done talking about this. I can’t trust you right now.” Ning Ran waved her hand.
“Actually, what I wanted to ask is if you are dating Uncle Nan Chen?” Zheng Lunlun looked at Ning Ran.
“What do you mean?”
“Literally what I said. Are you dating Uncle Nan Chen?”
Ning Ran broke out into laughter, “Me? Dating Poker Face? Are you kidding me?”
“No, I’m not. I’m asking you this question very seriously. Do you like Uncle Nan Chen?” Zheng Lunlun asked.
“Zheng Lunlun, have you lost your mind?” Me liking Poker Face? I wouldn’t like him even if he was the last guy on
earth!” Ning Ran said as she clenched her teeth.
“Now this, I don’t understand. What’s wrong with Uncle Nan Chen? He’s handsome and rich. Lots of women wish
they could be with him! Why do you hate him so much?”
“That’s their problem. I just hate him!” Ning Ran said angrily.
“Then that means Uncle Nan Chen likes you.” Zheng Lunlun shook his head.
“What nonsense are you talking about? Why must I have anything to do with him?”
“I’m not talking nonsense! You went to the office, and Uncle Nan Chen locks himself in his office for the entire night.
He must’ve been heartbroken! With his riches and charm, he could have any woman he wanted! But what should
he do if the one he likes is dating his brother? He can’t do anything about it! So, he thought about it all night and still
couldn’t find an ideal solution. What a poor guy…”
Ning Ran nearly threw her lunch box in Zheng Lunlun’s face.
This guy was too good at making stuff up! He’s wasting his talent being an actor. He should be a screenwriter!
“Zheng Lunlun, I’m warning you! You’d better stop disgusting me with these silly stories, or I’ll set your blonde head
on fire!” Ning Ran said angrily.
Zheng Lunlun touched his hair that had been dyed black, “The blonde hair is in the past, there’s no more left now. I
didn’t mean to disgust you. I’m just warning you not to play with fire. Even though they are both really handsome,
you mustn’t get greedy!”
Ning Ran couldn’t stand it anymore. She put down her lunch box, and rushed at Zheng Lunlun, “I’ll rip your filthy
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmmouth out! That should stop you from spouting nonsense!”
Zheng Lunlun dropped his lunch and ran away while screaming, “Help! Ding Mi’s lost gone mad!”
His cry for help alerted everyone nearby, and made Ning Ran embarrassed to keep chasing after him.
People from the crew commented, “Let’s not get in the way of them flirting.”
“They’re both so good looking; they make such a good match!”
“Please, good looking is such an understatement. With their acting skills combined with their good looks, they’re
practically gods of the silver screen!”
Although a lot of people were talking about it, most of them meant no harm.
On the contrary, they felt that Ning Ran and Zheng Lunlun make a good match despite their age gap.
Luo Fei couldn’t stand it anymore. She came out of her caravan and walked straight to Ning Ran.
“Ning Ran, are you shameless?”
“No, why? Are you?” Ning Ran laughed.
“Didn’t you promise me that you’d leave Flower City? Why are you still here, seducing young men?”
“I want to leave too, but the Nan family is too powerful, so I have to plan my escape carefully. Otherwise, if the Nan
family catches me, then I won’t ever be able to leave.”
“You’re full of excuses!”
“By the way, do you remember that you told me you’d arrange for me to leave? And now you’re blaming me for
your incompetence?”
“How am I supposed to arrange that if you keep hanging out with Nan Xing every day?”
“You don’t have to worry about that. Once you’ve made the arrangements, I’ll dump Nan Xing and leave Flower
City.” Ning Ran said.
Luo Fei glared at Ning Ran, as if trying to read her thoughts.
But Ning Ran just smiled slightly, and there was no way to figure out what she was thinking.
