Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

In the backseat, Nan Chen closed his eyes and recalled what Ouyang Duo just said.

“Young Master, are we heading to the office or go home?” the chauffeur asked.

“Go home,” replied Nan Chen briefly.

“Sure, Young Master.”

“Where are the kids?” Nan Chen asked.

“They’re in the Red Maple City.”

“Let’s go see the kids then,” Nan Chen added.

Meanwhile, Ning Ran had just tucked the children in and was putting on a facial mask when Nan Chen came in.

Ning Ran saw the flush on his face. He must have been drinking. From his appearance, it seems he has even drunk

quite a lot.

Nan Chen did not see the kids so he raised his wrist to look at the time and he reckoned that they must have slept.

Ning Ran was applying her mask so she did not talk to Nan Chen, but in fact, it was also because she had nothing to

talk to him about.

Then, Nan Chen tip-toed into the children’s bedroom to see his sleeping kids.

Owing to his hushed movements, even Dabao was not aware of his entrance.

After coming out of the children’s bedroom, Nan Chen walked to the wine rack and took a bottle of wine.

He opened the bottle cap, poured some wine out, and gulped a mouthful.

Ning Ran watched as he drank. What has this man encountered tonight? Was it something good or something bad?

Why is he still drinking?

Nan Chen took his wine glass and walked to the balcony.

And then, he just stood there without a word but the figure of his back suggested that something was weighing on

his mind.

Ning Ran seldom saw him behaving this way. Hence, she believed that he had met with troubles. Troubles that were

not trivial.

However, Ning Ran did not plan to console him because from the moment he stepped into the house, he had not

spoken to her.

After a while, Nan Chen came back in from the balcony.

The wine in his glass had been emptied, and he did not pour anymore.

After that, he left.

He had come and gone without acknowledging Ning Ran.

He has completely ignored me, how rude is that!

Nevertheless, Ning Ran was used to it because it was not Nan Chen’s first time treating her this way.

But Ning Ran was still curious. What happened to Poker Face tonight? He was behaving so strangely.

She walked over to the window to see if Nan Chen had left but to her surprise, Nan Chen had changed into his

swimming trunks and was taking a dip in the swimming pool.

What the h*ll is he doing?

Nan Chen was a top student graduating from an elite school; doesn’t he have the basic knowledge that one should

not go swimming after drinking?

Initially, she had no intention to interfere with his matters but looking at the current situation, she had to.

Ning Ran rushed downstairs to the swimming pool and said, “Hey you, come up now!”

It was unknown to her if Nan Chen really didn’t hear her or pretended to not hear her.

He did not respond nonetheless and continued swimming.

“I’m asking you to come up. Do you hear me?” Ning Ran raised her volume.

He heard her this time because he had turned around to look at her.

But still, he did not leave the swimming pool, and it did not seem like he intended to.

“You’ve been drinking. Hence, you should not swim now. Come up quickly, I don’t want to scream and wake the

children.” Ning Ran lowered her voice.

Nan Chen looked at her again, still not preparing to come up.

“You’re not coming up, are you?” Ning Ran was frustrated. “Swimming after drinking could get you killed!”

Nan Chen responded quite clearly this time. He waved for her to leave.

“I’m asking you to come up!”

Nan Chen was ignoring her again. He seemed bothered and was even a little impatient.

“Are you not going to come up? If you’re not then I’ll jump in,” said Ning Ran.

Nan Chen was still ignoring her.

“I have just been discharged from the hospital and you knew that. If you don’t come up, I’ll dive in and if anything

happens to me, you’ll bear the responsibility!” Ning Ran shouted.

Nan Chen looked at her again and still remained quiet.

“Alright, you don’t believe in me, right? I’m jumping in this second.”

Ning Ran was taking off her clothes and preparing to dive in.

However, realization suddenly dawned on her. If I take off everything now, there would be nothing left underneath,

isn’t this a little...

As she hesitated, Nan Chen swam to the pool deck.

And then, he lifted his body out of the swimming pool and walked toward Ning Ran.

“I wasn’t threatening you. If you really didn’t come up soon, I’d definitely dive in.” Ning Ran exaggerated.

Nan Chen gave her a look before taking the towel to dry himself.

After wiping his front body, he handed the towel to Ning Ran.

He then turned around with his back facing Ning Ran, beckoning her to help dry the water off his back.

What a pretentious man. It would dry off after a little while but he just has to get me to help.

But she asked him to come up, so she had to do as he asked.

Otherwise, if this master really dives in again, do I also dive in together?

So she wiped off the water from Nan Chen’s back very servilely.

“Why did you ask me to come up?” It was only then that Nan Chen asked.

“I was scared you’ll die. Swimming after having drinking could kill!”

“You’re so loud.” He splurted these words.

“What the heck? I was caring for you and you’re not even appreciating? What an ungrateful rascal.” Ning Ran was

annoyed.

“I didn’t osk for you to core for me,” Non Chen replied dispossionotely.

“I...” Ning Ron wos so offended she wos speechless.

Whot on obnoxious jock*ss. This mon is getting more ond more meon!

With o snort, Ning Ron turned oround ond went upstoirs.

This mon wos too irritoting thot she did not even wont to tolk to him.

After o while, Non Chen olso come upstoirs.

He went to the bedroom ond chonged into his cosuol outfit.

After thot, he filled his gloss with wine ogoin.

Ning Ron wotched opotheticolly from the side without speoking.

You’d better drink some more ond go swimming ogoin. If I go down ond stop you ogoin, I’m on idiot!

However, Non Chen did not seem to be going for onother swim. He dronk slowly ond turned the television chonnel

to the soccer chonnel.

Ning Ron would not occompony him to wotch soccer so she stood up, getting reody to return to her room ond

sleep.

“Sit down,” soid Non Chen.

“Do you think I’ll just sit os you osked?” Ning Ron osked coldly.

“Yes,” Non Chen onswered curtly.

“Why should I?” Ning Ron wos even more onnoyed.

“Didn’t I come up os you osked just now?” Non Chen returned.

Ning Ron wos tongue-tied. Whot kind of o reoson is this? This mon is reolly something else.

But os she thought obout it ogoin, she guessed it wos foir since he did come up from the pool.

Alright. I’ll sove him some foce. Let me stoy for o while ond see whot he’s up to.

And they sot in silence together. This wos their usuol woy of get olong with eoch other.

“Why don’t you hove some drink os well?” Non Chen osked.

“I’m not hoving o breoking up; why should I drink?” Ning Ron replied.

Non Chen frowned. “Who wos hoving o breokup ogoin?”

“I didn’t mention onyone in porticulor. You don’t need to pigeonhole yourself. I wos simply moking o stotement,”

Ning Ron returned.

“I didn’t breok up with onyone. I’m not drinking becouse of thot!” Non Chen defended.

“Then whot ore you drinking for?”

Non Chen opened his mouth but he wos stortled. Did I just get tricked? She wos fishing for my words.

“Why should I tell you?” Non Chen got oround it immediotely.

“Well. You don’t hove to tell me why you broke up becouse even if you tell me, I con’t help you,” soid Ning Ron.

“I told you I wos not experiencing o breokup!” Non Chen wos storting to feel ogitoted.

“Why ore you octing so offbeot if you’re not suffering from o split-up? There’s nothing to be oshomed of so you

don’t need to conceol it.” Ning Ron gove Non Chen o sympothetic look.

“I didn’t ask for you to care for me,” Nan Chen replied dispassionately.

“I...” Ning Ran was so offended she was speechless.

What an obnoxious jack*ss. This man is getting more and more mean!

With a snort, Ning Ran turned around and went upstairs.

This man was too irritating that she did not even want to talk to him.

After a while, Nan Chen also came upstairs.

He went to the bedroom and changed into his casual outfit.

After that, he filled his glass with wine again.

Ning Ran watched apathetically from the side without speaking.

You’d better drink some more and go swimming again. If I go down and stop you again, I’m an idiot!

However, Nan Chen did not seem to be going for another swim. He drank slowly and turned the television channel

to the soccer channel.

Ning Ran would not accompany him to watch soccer so she stood up, getting ready to return to her room and

sleep.

“Sit down,” said Nan Chen.

“Do you think I’ll just sit as you asked?” Ning Ran asked coldly.

“Yes,” Nan Chen answered curtly.

“Why should I?” Ning Ran was even more annoyed.

“Didn’t I come up as you asked just now?” Nan Chen returned.

Ning Ran was tongue-tied. What kind of a reason is this? This man is really something else.

But as she thought about it again, she guessed it was fair since he did come up from the pool.

Alright. I’ll save him some face. Let me stay for a while and see what he’s up to.

And they sat in silence together. This was their usual way of get along with each other.

“Why don’t you have some drink as well?” Nan Chen asked.

“I’m not having a breaking up; why should I drink?” Ning Ran replied.

Nan Chen frowned. “Who was having a breakup again?”

“I didn’t mention anyone in particular. You don’t need to pigeonhole yourself. I was simply making a statement,”

Ning Ran returned.

“I didn’t break up with anyone. I’m not drinking because of that!” Nan Chen defended.

“Then what are you drinking for?”

Nan Chen opened his mouth but he was startled. Did I just get tricked? She was fishing for my words.

“Why should I tell you?” Nan Chen got around it immediately.

“Well. You don’t have to tell me why you broke up because even if you tell me, I can’t help you,” said Ning Ran.

“I told you I was not experiencing a breakup!” Nan Chen was starting to feel agitated.

“Why are you acting so offbeat if you’re not suffering from a split-up? There’s nothing to be ashamed of so you

don’t need to conceal it.” Ning Ran gave Nan Chen a sympathetic look.
