My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Nan Chen left anyway.

Ning Ran did not gain anything other than a nice meal.

Nonetheless, his decision was understandable. After all, if the roles were exchanged, she would not have forked out

the money either.

Even though the Nan family is rich, it was still hard-earned money and not something that could be given just like

that.

Moreover, as a prideful person, Nan Chen would be more concerned about getting conned.

Seems like I’ll have to come up with another plan.

Despite his anger, Nan Chen allowed Qiao Zhan to send Ning Ran back to her living quarters.

In the morning, Luo Yi called before Ning Ran had even woken up.

“Today will be the last day. Get the money ready or be prepared for the consequences.”

“I have the money, but I can’t make the transfer. You’ll have to collect the cash in person,” Ning Ran responded.

“What tricks do you have up your sleeves?” Luo Yi responded.

“I don’t have any tricks. If you run away with the money I transferred without returning my mother’s ashes, what

should I do? I can’t trust you. You’ll have to bring my grandfather and my mother’s ash over to collect the cash. As

for Ning Ziqiang, you can do whatever you want with him. We’re not related,” Ning Ran reasoned.

Luo Yi was silent as though she was contemplating the woman’s words.

Ning Ran had to convince her and had to do so fast, to ensure that she would get a favorable answer.

“If you don’t want the money, I’ll keep it for myself. My mother is no longer with me and there’s no longer any

meaning to what I do for her. At least with the money, I can lead a better life. She would be happy for me.”

She then continued, “I’m sending the location to Feng Minsheng’s phone so that he can send you over. Bring the

item over. If you don’t, you can forget about the money.”

With that, Ning Ran hung up the phone before Luo Yi had the time to digress the information.

After a while, Feng Minsheng called.

Indeed, they were in cahoots. It’s likely that he had spoken to Luo Yi.

“Luo Yi said you wanted to pass her the money and for me to bring her over. However, I have not received a

location from you,” Feng Minsheng informed.

“I’ll send it over once I’ve arrived.”

Ning Ran hung up quickly, leaving no room for second thoughts.

She then called Qiao Zhan.

…

Two hours later. Honghua Hotel, Room 506.

Luo Yi did not ring the doorbell as she stood at the doorstep. Instead, she checked her surroundings.

She was carrying a huge bag that seemed to contain a heavy object.

After much inspection and concluding that everything was normal, she pressed the doorbell.

It is undoubtedly Ning Ran’s room.

She had deliberately opened the door wide to assure Luo Yi that there was no one else inside, so she could enter at

ease.

The room was small and one could easily tell that there was no one inside.

Only then did Luo Yi enter and ask, “Where’s the money?”

Ning Ran pointed to a large suitcase, “It’s right here. Ten million is a lot of money. I can’t even shift it.”

“Open it up and show it to me,” Luo Yi answered.

“As agreed, let me have my mother’s ashes first,” Ning Ran countered.

“I haven’t even seen the money yet. How would I know if you’re telling the truth?” Luo Yi queried.

“I didn’t see my mother’s ashes either. How would I know if you’re telling the truth?” Ning Ran rebutted.

Luo Yi bent down, ready to verify the cash in the suitcase only to realize that it was rather sturdy and required a

password to be opened.

“Open it up and let me verify the cash. I’ll hand over the ashes once you do that.”

“We’ve spoken about this before. I’m not giving it to you if you don’t give it to me!” Ning Ran retorted.

“I have the ashes in my bag. If I smash it up right now, your grandfather and your mother’s ashes will get mixed up.

By then, you wouldn’t even be able to tell them apart. Open up the suitcase or I’ll throw the ashes out the window,”

Luo Yi replied agitatedly.

“Luo Yi, let’s talk peacefully and not act rash. The money is definitely here but I doubt you have the ashes with you.

The initiative is still in your hands. What’s there to be agitated about?” Ning Ran calmly responded.

Luo Yi shut the door.

As long as I have the door shut, no one can barge in. Dealing with Ning Ran will be a piece of cake.

Ning Ran motioned for Luo Yi to have a seat, but Luo Yi was being vigilant and refused.

“What do you want to talk about? There’s nothing for us to discuss. You just have to hand over the money and I’ll

pass you your mother’s ashes. It’s as simple as that,” Luo Yi said.

“You don’t even have the ashes with you. Luo Yi, you’re trying to be funny. Don’t you know you’ve made life a living

hell for me?” Ning Ran asked.

“How did I make life a living hell? Your father brought you up. What’s wrong with asking you for a bit of money?”

“You’re clearing ripping me off under the pretense that my father has no money for treatment. It’s clear that you

wanted ten million but you’re only asking for a hundred thousand. If my father had really been sick and needed the

hundred thousand, I would have given it no matter what it takes. “ Ning Ran scowled.

She then continued, “But what you’re really after is ten million. I don’t have that much to offer even if I tried. What

could I do? I could only borrow money from the rich. Who else would fork out ten million? I had initially obtained

that sum but you guys lied to the Nan family and declared that I was a heartless person. As it is, the master of the

Nan family got angry and refused to lend me their money. So it’s all on you!”

Luo Yi got anxious, “Are you trying to tell me that you don’t have the money? Did you lie to me about the money in

the suitcase?”

“I could have borrowed it. But it was all ruined because of you guys!” Ning Ran elaborated.

“So then you decided to con me with this big suitcase?”

“It’s not empty. It contains an explosive device that I bought from the black market. With the press of a button, the

device would blow up. We can both say hi to my mother and you can personally explain to her how you’ve caused

her death!” Ning Ran snapped.

Luo Yi didn’t get the chance to react. However, she had noticed the remote controller that Ning Ran was wielding.

“You’re trying to scare me. It isn’t like you to do this!” Luo Yi panicked.

“I wouldn’t. But as long as it involves money, many would! Luo Yi, would you like to visit my mother? Since you guys

are pushing me to the brink, let’s all die together!” Ning Ran roared.

“Don’t be rash! Don’t be rash…We can talk about it!”

Luo Yi said that as she prepared to take a break for the exit.

“Stand there. If you dare to move, I’ll hit the button. We will all die!” Ning Ran raised the remote controller she was

holding.

“Calm down. I won’t go. I won’t go,” Luo Yi motioned for Ning Ran to relax.

“Can you hear it? Dah dah dah. It’s the sound of the device!” Ning Ran commented.

Luo Yi listened hard. Sure enough, she heard it. This made her feel even more anxious.
