Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

The sky had lightened up by the time Ning Ran woke up.

Ruan Anxi was staring at her like a piece of meat.

Ning Ran rolled over and got up. “Why are you always staring at me like that? It's scary.”

“Cause you're pretty.” A short and sweet explanation.

“My looks have nothing to do with you! I'm Nan Chen's woman!”

Ning Ran felt that there was a need to remind him to behave.

However, her reminder and warning were too weak to act as a deterrent to Ruan Anxi.

Ruan Anxi paid no heed to her as he shook his head in disdain.

He then stood up and went to the restroom to wash up.

He passed Ning Ran a toothbrush and a towel when he came out. “They're all new. Wash up first before you wash

your face.”

Ning Ran took the toiletries reluctantly and glared at him.

When she came out from the restroom, Ruan Anxi was snacking on a tomato.

It was evident that he was very fond of tomatoes. He would always stock the small fridge in his RV with tomatoes so

he could snack on them whenever he liked.

“I only have bread and milk for breakfast. You'll have to put up with it.”

Ning Ran felt hungry since she skipped dinner yesterday.

However, she didn't want to eat Ruan Anxi's food. Hence, she snacked on chips she bought from the rest area

instead.

Ruan Anxi frowned. “Why are you snacking for breakfast? This is really unhealthy.”

With that, he snatched her bag of chips away and threw it into the bin.

Ning Ran was fuming with rage. “Why do you care about what I eat? You're my kidnapper, not my friend. Just leave

me be!”

Ruan Anxi shoved a piece of bread at her. “Eat this sugar-free bread instead. It's very nutritious and won't make you

fat. Eat!”

“No way.” Ning Ran couldn't hold it in anymore and threw a tantrum.

The reason she dared to throw a tantrum was that Ruan Anxi wouldn't get mad at her.

It looked as if he had forgotten that he was the preparator as he talked and acted like he was her friend.

Ruan Anxi shook his wrist, and a small exquisite scalpel appeared in his hand.

Where in the world did he hide all these scalpels? How many does he have on him?

“I'll carve the word 'ugly' onto your face if you refuse to eat.”

“How dare you?” Ning Ran screamed.

“Why wouldn't I dare? I've even removed someone's heart before. Disfiguring your face is nothing to me.”

Ruan Anxi smiled sinisterly and closed in.

Chills ran down her spine when he came near. It felt as if he was a poisonous snake about to strike.

Ning Ran had no choice but to take a bite of the bread. It's not bad.

Ruan Anxi let her off upon that and continued eating his tomato.

After breakfast, he pulled out his satellite phone and communicated in a language that sounded foreign to Ning

Ran.

He put the phone back after he hung up.

“Is that Nan Chen?” Ning Ran asked.

“No. I won't contact him directly. Or else he's going to use it against me and accuse me of kidnapping you, which I

didn't,” said Ruan Anxi.

What a sly fox.

“Who did you call then?”

“My lackeys, of course. I told him to contact Nan Chen's assistant.”

“And?” Ning Ran grew nervous.

“I instructed my lackeys to invite Nan Chen to bring two men to Gerton. I wanted to have a chat with them. You'll be

free once they arrive. Of course, you can choose to stay if you wish.”

“No freaking way! Who are the other two?”

“It's a man and a woman. The man is Nan Chen's grandfather, and the woman is Lu Jingyuan,” Ruan Anxi said in a

low voice.

Ning Ran was taken aback by his words.

She knew Ruan Anxi was going to negotiate with Nan Chen. But she thought he only wanted money. Who would

have thought that he would actually replace her with someone else?

Moreover, she never thought that he would ask for Nan Chen's grandfather in exchange for letting her go.

She could understand if he wanted Lu Jingyuan since she was the one who caused the death of his men.

However, she couldn't wrap her head around why he would want Nan Zhengde.

“Mr. Nan is old and frail. Why do you insist on making things difficult for him?” Ning Ran was enraged.

“He's still alive, right? That means we can still meet. Besides, who says I'm going to make things difficult for him?

I'm just asking him out for a chat,” Ruan Anxi replied.

“Why do you have to ask Nan Zhengde out for a chat? What do you guys have to talk about?” Ning Ran was

confused.

“We have many things to talk about. I didn't prepare a script since this isn't a speech. We're just chatting, and it can

be anything. I can't answer that question.”

There was nothing incessantly wrong with his reply, but Ning Ran felt that something was off.

Ruan Anxi conducted shady business overseas, whereas Nan Zhengde was an influential figure in Flower City. They

have no business with each other, so what is there to talk about?

Ning Ran knew that Ruan Anxi was lying, but she couldn't prove it.

Nan Chen would never agree to this.

Moreover, Nan Zhengde wouldn't last five seconds if he fell into Ruan Anxi's hands. He was too old for this.

Besides, Nan Chen wouldn't be able to gain a foothold in Nanshi Corporation if he handed Nan Zhengde over for

Ning Ran's sake.

It wasn't about putting his significant other over his friends anymore. He would be betraying his family member for

a woman. Nan Chen would never do that.

“I know what you're thinking.” Ruan Anxi chuckled.

Ning Ran glared at him.

“You must think Nan Chen is an honorable man. He would never betray his grandfather. Haven't I told you? People

would throw away their principles and beliefs when the price is right. It will be interesting to see how Nan Chen will

go about this. What are his principles and beliefs? He won't be able to betray his grandfather if he insists on his

principles. However, he won't be able to stand there and do nothing while you die. What do you think he will do?”

Ruan Anxi smiled.

Ning Ran had to admit, Ruan Anxi's plan was ingenious.

If Nan Chen chose to protect Nan Zhengde, then Ning Ran would be placed in danger.

However, if he chose to hand Nan Zhengde over, he wouldn't be able to gain a foothold in Nanshi Corporation and

would lose the respect of his people.

Hence, Nan Chen didn't have a choice even though Ruan Anxi made it seem like he was given one. Either choice

would be the end for him.

“Why are you doing this?” Ning Ran raged.

“Because I like it.”

“Do you think you're free to do as you please?”

“Yes.” Ruan Anxi replied matter-of-factly. “I like to do whatever I please. And I'll prove to you that beliefs and

principles don't exist.”
