Nan Xing had stayed and waited in the hospital parking lot.
After Nan Chen had left, he stayed behind. He had to get to the bottom of why Ning Ran was mixed up with that
man!
The phone rang, and Nan Xing immediately answered as soon as he saw the number, “What is it?”
He wanted to be fierce towards Ning Ran but couldn't bring himself to do it in the end.
After all, that woman had given birth to two of the Nan family's children and had raised them all by herself
throughout those years, so he couldn't bring himself to be fierce with her.
“Lunlun wants us to take him out for hotpot, do you know a good place for it?”
She didn't even ask for his approval and let him choose the venue right away. If he was the one who picked the
restaurant, he would be the one to bear full responsibility if Nan Chen were to blame someone for it.
Nan Xing was confused when he heard that. Didn't they all agree on not letting him out of the hospital? And now
they were going out for hotpot? Who would be responsible if something went wrong?
“You promised him?” Nan Xing asked with a frown.
“I thought you were the one who promised him?” Ning Ran asked.
“I didn't! Who said I did?” Nan Xing was getting anxious.
“Oh, so he lied to me then. I had agreed to take him because I heard you had agreed to. That's why I'm calling you
to ask for a good place for a hotpot now.”
“No, he cannot go out! My brother said he mustn't show up outdoors as it was too risky.” Nan Xing said.
“I get it now; you just listen to your brother and say whatever he says. No ideas, no opinions, no soul, nothing at all.
If I had to describe you with one word, it'd be a puppet.” Ning Ran said.
Nan Xing couldn't stand hearing that, “What are you saying? Am I that kind of person?”
“What kind of person are you then? You say you have your own opinions but you need your brother's approval just
to take your nephew out for hotpot? Would you eat dirt if your brother tells you to as well?” Ning Ran asked.
Nan Xing nearly smashed his phone in anger, but he held himself back.

someone finds out about his current condition, his career as a star could be over.”
“The Nan family is so wealthy. Even if Lunlun doesn't become a star, you could still give him a job that would feed
him, right? You say it's for his own good, but in the end, you're just thinking about yourselves.” As Ning Ran said
that, she paused and felt that she needed to increase the intensity a little.
“So, do you guys treat Lunlun as a star to make profits or as family? If you truly see him as family, then you should
satisfy this little wish of his!” Ning Ran had said all that for both Nan Xing and Zheng Lunlun to hear.
As long as she could make Zheng Lunlun happy, she could reduce the pressure from him asking for his money
back.
It would also be easier to handle the pressure from Poker Face later on with Zheng Lunlun's help.
Zheng Lunlun nodded in approval when he heard what Ning Ran said.
Nan Xing gave it some thought and felt what she said made sense.
Zheng Lunlun was able to survive such a terrifying incident, after all. Does it really matter that much how well his
career goes?
Even if Zheng Lunlun didn't work for the rest of his life, he wouldn't have to worry about a thing as the Nan family
was wealthy enough to support him anyway. So, why worry so much?
“Alright, then we'll take him out. But don't let my brother know about this.”
Ning Ran was delighted to hear that, “Of course, we'll just carry it out in secret!”
Zheng Lunlun jumped in joy when he heard that he could leave the hospital.
He started to rummage through his box looking for a change of clothes.
Being a pretty boy, of course he would have to dress up nicely before heading out.
“I'll wait outside. I'll come back in after you're done changing.” Ning Ran stepped out of the ward and shut the door
behind her.
At the same time, Nan Xing came out of the elevator. Ning Ran pulled him aside and pointed at the bodyguards
standing next to the elevator, “What do we do about those guys?”
“We don't have to. Who would dare stop me from leaving?” Nan Xing had a nonchalant look on his face.
“Are you stupid? I'm talking about getting Lunlun out. They may not stop you, but they could report to Poker Face
about it! What would you do then?” Ning Ran exclaimed.
“Oh, you're right. What do you think we should do?”
“That's what I'm asking you. They're your family's bodyguards, how would I know what to do with them?”
“I have no ideas.”
“How about we give them some money and have them go eat somewhere?” Ning Ran suggested.
“I never bring cash with me, so I don't have any money for them.”
Ning Ran frowned, “You're really stupid. You could just tell them to eat anywhere and put it on your tab. I'm sure the
restaurant would allow it seeing as you're the young master of the Nan family?”
“You're right! That's brilliant!”
Nan Xing was utterly impressed by Ning Ran. He felt that she was the only person in the world who could stand up
to his brother.
Nan Xing walked over and the bodyguards immediately bowed, “Young Master Xing!”
“You did a good job, go treat yourselves to a nice meal.”
“We have someone delivering food later.” The bodyguard said.
“I'm treating you to a nice meal right now. Go to Yushifang on South Street, there's a big meal waiting for you
there.”
The bodyguards looked at each other. Yushifang was such a high-end restaurant that people of their level could not
afford to have a single meal even if they used up an entire month's salary.
And now they can go eat there? Is this what people would consider a free lunch? And they are the lucky ones to
receive it?
“Young Master Xing, Sir Chen had specifically instructed us not to leave our post until the next shift arrives.” The
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbodyguards said.
“Do you not want to eat there? Or are you disrespecting me?” Nan Xing looked crossed.
“Young Master Xing, that's not what we meant......”
“Just go eat, and give them my name. Eat as much as you like, I'll send my regards later.” Nan Xing said.
The bodyguards exchanged glances again, “But if Sir Chen finds out......”
“My brother won't find out. Rewarding hard-working employees is something that my brother often does as well, so
don't worry about it. Just go.” Nan Xing waved his hand.
“Then, we'll be leaving now?”
“Go on.”
The bodyguards got into the elevator and cried out in joy immediately. Being able to skip work and enjoy a nice
meal was something they may never come across again in their lives!
Zheng Lunlun had finished getting dressed. He had been wearing the hospital garments up till now, so he felt great
being able to wear his own clothes again.
He cried out in joy as soon as he stepped out of the ward.
“Thanks Fourth Uncle!” Zheng Lunlun thanked Nan Xing.
“Don't thank me, thank her. It was her idea.” Nan Xing pointed at Ning Ran.
Ning Ran thought to herself, Hold on, we haven't even made it out and this guy's already prepared to avoid the
responsibility? Looks like he's no pushover either!
“No, thank your uncle Nan Xing for his generosity. He was the one who chose the place.”
“Thank you both.” Zheng Lunlun said.
As long as he kept his responses within three words, no one would know about his stuttering.
“But you need to don a disguise. Put on a mask and a hat. You are a huge star now; we can't have people
recognizing you. If someone recognizes you, your uncle Nan Xing won't be able to bear the responsibility.” Ning Ran
shifted the responsibility back to Nan Xing.
