After dinner, Ning Ran was brought to the riverside by Nan Chen again.
Nan Chen’s expression was terrifyingly cold, and Ning Ran had a bad feeling about it. She stopped walking after a
while and refused to take another step.
She thought to herself, What if we wander too far away and this guy kills me and dumps my body in the river?
“Just tell me what it is that you want. I don’t owe you any money, so why have you brought me all the way here?!”
Ning Ran said loudly.
She tried to speak as loud as she could to counter the pressure that Nan Chen was giving her.
“Why did you do that?” Nan Chen asked coldly.
“I had to!” Ning Ran said.
Nan Chen almost lost his temper. She nearly got someone killed, and yet behaves so nonchalantly?
He reached out his arm and grabbed Ning Ran, and forced her to the riverside.
She would fall into the river if he had applied a bit more force on her.
“Help……”
Before Ning Ran could finish, Nan Chen pulled her back again.
“If you kill me, I won’t forgive you even if I turn into a ghost!” Ning Ran still had a lingering fear in her heart. She
had really felt Nan Chen’s murderous intent just now, and her feet were still weak from it.
“You unrepentant woman!” Nan Chen was furious.
“Why should I repent? I didn’t do anything wrong! That’s what I’ve always been doing!” Ning Ran said.
“You’ve always been causing harm to others?”
“What do you mean by that? What harm have I caused by saving my own children?”
Nan Chen realized that they were not talking about the same thing.
Was this woman playing dumb to divert attention?
“Why did you hurt Lunlun?” Nan Chen asked coldly.
“Huh? Since when I hurt him?” I just haven’t returned the money I owed him. He is so rich — hundreds of thousands
are nothing to him anyway. Besides, it’s not like I’m never going to pay up. I’m just not paying up for the time
being!”
Nan Chen was confused again. What is this woman talking about?

We’re clearly talking about a life or death issue here. Why is she talking about owing and paying money?
Ning Ran realized that they were not on the same page as well.
But then again, they never were anyway!
“What exactly are you trying to say?” Ning Ran felt that she needed to get a clear answer from him.
“Zheng Lunlun’s detoxification process was almost complete, but his condition had suddenly worsened because
someone applied Wang Chuan grass herbal oil on him again which increased the toxicity in his body. He is still in
danger now!”
“I know this, Dabao told me about it.”
And then there was silence.
“Ah, you suspect that I did it to him?” Ning Ran said as she suddenly realized what was going on.
“Who else could it be?” Nan Chen’s voice sounded like it was from hell itself.
“Why me? How are you so sure that it was me? Just because you don’t like me? Well, I don’t like you either, so I
think it was you!” Ning Ran exclaimed.
“He is my nephew; of course I will not harm him!”
“He’s like a brother to me, that makes me even more unlikely for me to harm him!”
Nan Chen was extremely furious but couldn’t do anything about Ning Ran.
He couldn’t bring himself to do something like hit a woman.
But his anger was burning so strongly that he didn’t know what to do.
Out of anger, Nan Chen shouted, “Get lost!”
Ning Ran was confused; This is a forest. Where would she go?
But Ning Ran didn’t dare talk back anymore as she felt the danger of doing so.
One could talk back a little with Nan Chen but not anger him completely.
If he lost control and really tossed her into the river, she’d surely die.
Besides, if it wasn’t for him, she would’ve been abducted along with her kids, so she still had to thank him for that.
Not to mention his care for the kids, as even she wasn’t that meticulous.
“It really wasn’t me.” Ning Ran said slowly, “There is no need for me to do such a thing.”
In a state of fury, Nan Chen did not speak and just exuded cold air and hostility as he stood there.
“I was with Dabao and Erbao the whole time. They can testify for me.” Ning Ran said.
Nan Chen remained silent.
“If you don’t believe me, then there’s nothing I can do. I swear, I really wasn’t the one who harmed Zheng Lunlun!”
Ning Ran said.
Naturally, Nan Chen doesn’t believe in things like swearing.
But he did believe in one thing, that is Ning Ran saying that Dabao and Erbao being able to testify.
As wicked as Ning Ran may be, she wouldn’t harm others using her children’s name.
Dabao and Erbao wouldn’t allow Ning Ran to do such a thing either.
Especially Dabao, as he had wanted to rescue Zheng Lunlun so badly, so he wouldn’t possibly let Ning Ran do that
to Zheng Lunlun.
“If not you, then who?” Nan Chen finally spoke.
Ning Ran let out a sigh of relief.
As long as he speaks, there’s still a possibility of communication.
“Luo Fei.” Ning Ran answered.
“What makes you think she did it?”
“I can’t say for sure, but she’s the only one who would dare do such a thing. Perhaps Zheng Lunlun has some dirt
on her and she doesn’t want him to wake up.”
Nan Chen didn’t agree with Ning Ran’s point.
Luo Fei and Zheng Lunlun had come together, so why would Luo Fei want to harm him?
“Do you have proof?
Ning Ran who had calmed down a lot more got angry again when she heard that.
So I need proof for suspecting Luo Fei but you don’t need any to suspect me?
Do I have the word Killer written on my head or something?
“You didn’t have proof for suspecting me either. I know what kind of person Luo Fei is, that’s why I think she did it.
It’s fine if you don’t believe me, because I didn’t need you to anyway.”
Nan Chen kept quiet as he heard that.

While Ning Ran and Nan Chen were arguing at the riverside, Dabao and Erbao were having a discussion in the tent.
The topic of their discussion was also about whoever it was that harmed Zheng Lunlun.
“It must be that annoying woman!” Erbao was very certain.
Dabao motioned for Erbao to keep her voice down to not be heard by others.
“But she came with Blondie. They are friends, so why would she do that?” Dabao asked.
Erbao couldn’t answer.
She didn’t know much. She just found Luo Fei annoying and if anyone did something bad, it must be her.
“If it really was her, then we must be careful.” Dabao said.
“Would she harm us?”
“It’s possible.” Dabao nodded solemnly.
“Then we must tell Uncle Nan Chen!”
“We can’t. Uncle Nan Chen knows it well.” Dabao reminded.
Erbao was getting a little impatient. We can’t do this, we can’t do that, then what can we do?
“Let’s go ask her.” She finally had an idea.
“She won’t admit it. We need to find a way to get some proof.” Dabao said.
“Brother, you’re the smartest, so you think of an idea.” Erbao said.
“I need your cooperation as well for it to work.”
Dabao gave it some thought and shook his head, “No, this is difficult.”
Erbao didn’t know what her brother was thinking about and why he rejected his own thoughts either.
At that moment, someone entered the tent. It was Luo Fei.
She saw Nan Chen and Ning Ran leave, so she came over to get some information.
“Sweetie, aren’t you asleep?” Luo Fei asked with a smile.
“Get out, I don’t like you.” Erbao had always been direct.
“Sweetie, do you have some misunderstanding towards me? I actually like kids a lot, and I’m a huge star.” Luo Fei
said.
Dabao and Erbao looked at each other, Mommy’s the real superstar. Who do you think you are?
