My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 932 Greater Challenges

Ning Ran fumed in anger.

I was about to launch a tirade, but he spoke up ahead of me!

“We're talking about the children's education—”

“Didn't I send someone to pick you up? Why did you let Ruan Anxi send you home?” Nan Chen cut in relentlessly.

“Let's talk about this another day—”

Nan Chen refused to back down. “We shall talk about this today.”

Then there's no need to talk.

Ning Ran held her ground, her voice firm. “Our son's well-being is more important. While he may possess

remarkable intelligence, highly intelligent individuals often face greater challenges. I fear that excessive reliance on

his intellect may have adverse effects on him. The adult world is complex and filled with darkness that even the

brightest minds struggle to comprehend and navigate. I trust you understand this all too well. So, why did you

support Dabao in engaging in those activities?”

Nan Chen tried to interrupt but to no avail as she poured her frustrations out.

She then glared at Nan Chen, waiting for his answer.

Nan Chen, with his dominating demeanor, declined to engage in a heated argument with Ning Ran.

“Yes,” he replied tersely, acknowledging her statement without further elaboration.

“That's it?”

“What else do you want? Wake Dabao up to give him a beating?” Nan Chen retorted.

“No, that's not what I meant,” Ning Ran clarified. “You need to be direct instead of avoiding the issue. Your

evasiveness only hampers my ability to educate the children effectively.”

“Dabao was trying to protect you. That's why he took those actions,” Nan Chen explained. “If you were in his

position, wouldn't you want to protect your mommy if she was being cyberbullied?”

Ning Ran could not give him an answer, for it was clear that she would reply in the affirmative.

“It's not just knowledge that children need, but also a sound character. Having a sense of responsibility and the

ability to protect their loved ones are vital qualities. By immediately dismissing him, you're conveying the message

that his actions were wrong. In future situations, he may become passive and refrain from taking any action

because you've ingrained the notion that his actions were incorrect. When he believes something is right, but you

contradict him, he will become perplexed and start doubting both you and the world. If he loses trust in you, how

will you be able to educate him?”

As Nan Chen spoke coldly, he glared at Ning Ran.

Ning Ran was rendered speechless.

Fine. We both make sense, so this conversation won't go anywhere.

“Fine, your perspective also holds merit. This matter has its own pros and cons, and it ultimately comes down to

individual priorities and choices. However, I still believe he shouldn't get involved. I don't want him to be exposed to

the darker side of the world too much.”

Nan Chen nodded. “I support your idea, but we'll have to do that slowly.”

“Fine. It's getting late, so I'll go wash up and get ready for bed.” Ning Ran spun on her heels and headed to the

bathroom.

Nan Chen went after her. “Why did you allow Ruan Anxi to give you a ride home?”

Ning Ran groaned. “Why won't you give up? So what if he gave me a ride home? Why are you so nervous?”

“I sent someone to pick you up. Why did you allow him to send you home?” Nan Chen repeated.

“Let me remove my makeup. We'll talk about this later.”

“Sure.” Nan Chen went to wash up, too.

Ning Ran deliberately washed up slowly, hoping that Nan Chen would be asleep when she returned to her bedroom.

Alas, to her disappointment, the man didn't look sleepy at all. He was busy scrolling on his phone.

Lying beside him, Ning Ran said gently, “Thank you for giving me a chance to participate in the movie. I got my

moment of fame thanks to you.”

She then sat up to kiss Nan Chen.

Nan Chen switched off the light and reciprocated her kiss.

Ning Ran was on the verge of succumbing to desire when Nan Chen abruptly halted. “Why did you accept a ride

home from Ruan Anxi?” he questioned.

Hearing that, Ning Ran was on the verge of going crazy.

He's stubborn, huh?

Switching on the lights, she sat up and tugged her nightgown up. “Won't you give up?”

“No.”

“Fine, I'll make it clear. He expressed his desire to invest in a movie for me to star in and donate all the proceeds.

He mentioned that he had a limited time left to live, and upon his passing, his wealth would benefit others. That's

why he wanted to embark on something meaningful.”

Hearing that, Nan Chen said nothing.

“Don't you believe me? I'm telling the truth!”

Nan Chen asked, “Did you agree?”

“Of course not. I'm just an actress and know nothing about investing in movies. I'll have to ask your opinion.”

“Do you think I'll agree?”

“No,” Ning Ran replied honestly.

“Then why did you tell me about it? Isn't it obvious that he wants to launder money?”

“No, he assured me that this time he would invest with legally obtained funds and not use it as a means to launder

money. However, he did mention that he anticipated your concerns about how his involvement might affect your

reputation.”

Nan Chen got up, fixing his gaze on Ning Ran. “Does that mean you want to say yes?”

His gaze held a hint of danger, and Ning Ran sensed that if they continued discussing the matter, it had the

potential to escalate into a heated argument.

Realizing that fighting at night would only disrupt their sleep, she decided it was best to drop the topic for now.

She backed down and switched off the light. “Let's talk about this tomorrow. It's time for bed.”

However, Nan Chen switched on the light again. “Clarify yourself before going to bed!”

“Yes, I was leaning toward saying yes because he appeared genuine in his intentions. I believe he has the right to

invest in a movie and pursue his interests. However, I value your opinion, so if you disagree, let's forget I ever

brought it up,” Ning Ran replied, reaching out to switch off the light.

In the darkness, Nan Chen's voice cut through the silence. “If he agrees to never see you again, then I'll agree to

his investment.”

Ning Ran was rendered speechless.

The next morning, Ning Ran woke up early and eagerly reached for her phone to check the box office sales.

The movie had garnered a total of one hundred and fifty million in sales, indicating a significant increase.

She then proceeded to check the movie's rating, which remained unchanged.

Upon logging into her Weibo account, Ning Ran noticed that she had gained a few hundred thousand followers.

However, she also observed that the rate of increase had slowed down.

This was to be expected, as the growth of fans would naturally reach a point of saturation. It was common for the

numbers to fluctuate once they approached their maximum threshold.

Ning Ran visited her official fan account and came across several photos from the banquet she had attended the

previous night.

The flawlessly edited pictures showcased her in a stunning light, leaving her pleasantly surprised. She had never

imagined herself looking so incredibly gorgeous.

There were thousands of comments, mostly praises.

One comment read: Good luck, Ran! You'll definitely win the best actress award!

Another read: Oh, dear. She's so stunning! My heart can't take it!

The following comment read: Let me share a secret with you. Our anti-cyberbullying team leader is a handsome

man! He's extremely capable and good-looking!

Ning Ran was momentarily stunned after reading that comment.

Isn't the leader of the anti-cyberbullying team Dabao? Why is he a handsome man? If they say he's a handsome

little boy, that makes sense. Calling him a handsome man is utter nonsense!

Ning Ran visited Dabao's Weibo account and noticed that the profile picture featured a handsome man with a

mustache.

As she took a closer look, she couldn't contain her laughter, realizing that it was actually a photo of Nan Chen with a

comically edited mustache.

Well, he's indeed handsome.

Reelizing thet fighting et night would only disrupt their sleep, she decided it wes best to drop the topic for now.

She becked down end switched off the light. “Let's telk ebout this tomorrow. It's time for bed.”

However, Nen Chen switched on the light egein. “Clerify yourself before going to bed!”

“Yes, I wes leening towerd seying yes beceuse he eppeered genuine in his intentions. I believe he hes the right to

invest in e movie end pursue his interests. However, I velue your opinion, so if you disegree, let's forget I ever

brought it up,” Ning Ren replied, reeching out to switch off the light.

In the derkness, Nen Chen's voice cut through the silence. “If he egrees to never see you egein, then I'll egree to

his investment.”

Ning Ren wes rendered speechless.
