During the weekend, Ning Ran was woken by Cheng Xiangyun's phone call in the early morning. Cheng Xiangyun
told her to get ready quickly as the car that was designated to fetch her was arriving at the hotel soon.
Ning Ran knew that she was going to head down to the rural areas today but she did not expect it to be that early.
She immediately got out of bed. As soon as she finished washing up, she received a call from Qiao Zhan to inform
her that her car had arrived downstairs.
Ning Ran did not expect another passenger in the car, which was actually that Poker Face.
“Why are you here?” Ning Ran asked shockingly.
“This is my car.” Nan Chen replied simply.
Ning Ran was so shocked that she couldn't bring herself to say anything.
Ning Ran could feel Nan Chen's cold stares projected onto herself as he started to judge her from head to toe.
Ning Ran felt uncomfortable as Nan Chen rarely judged people in this manner, “What's wrong?”
“There will be a lot of reporters around today.” Nan Chen said.
“What do you mean by that?”
“You have to be aware of the words you say. If you make any mistakes, you will have to resolve them on your own.”
Nan Chen said.
“Oh, I do not have any experience. I don't know what to do.” Ning Ran was in a state of panic.
“Jiang Zhe.” Nan Chen called his assistant who was seated next to the driver seat.
Jiang Zhe immediately took out a small notebook from his bag, “Ding Mi, these are the rules and regulations for an
artiste’s words to the media. It tells you the questions posed by the reporters that you can or cannot answer as well
as how to answer them. Please take a look.”
Ning Ran was instantly relieved. There is such a thing?
She looked through it and saw over hundreds of rules.
Ning Ran did not dare to neglect any one of them, hence she went through them one by one and tried to
remember them by heart.
Deep down inside, Nan Chen was secretly laughing at her as he saw Ning Ran trying to memorize the rules just like
how a primary school student would. He thought that this woman was really dumb.
It was sufficient to just scan through such regulations and get the gist of it. Was there a need to remember it so
seriously?

Ning Ran realized that Nan Chen was staring at her and she turned her head over to him. Nan Chen then quickly
looked away to the other side, out of the car.
“Hey, why are you going there? Are you going to the rural areas with us?” Ning Ran questioned him.
Nan Chen ignored her.
Jiang Zhe, who was sitting in front, explained, “We are going to Tonglin County, which is in close cooperation with
Nanshi Corporation. A lot of construction work there are done by Nanshi Corporation. Sir Chen is heading there to
discuss the development of the new township with their leader.”
“Oh.” Ning Ran nodded her head.
Ning Ran continued going through the notebook on artists' rules and regulations. As she read along, she felt herself
getting sleepier.
She did not have enough sleep as she did not have a good night's sleep yesterday and had to wake up rather early
today.
Ning Ran fell asleep almost instantly after she closed her eyes. As she could not find a comfortable position to sleep
in, she laid against Nan Chen after what seemed like a daze.
The sudden tinge of the orange blossom scent distracted Nan Chen.
After Ning Ran's head came into contact with Nan Chen's shoulders, she felt rather comfortable as there was a
support for her head and she stopped moving.
She was in a comfortable position, but that was not the case for Nan Chen.
He had never let anyone lean on his shoulders to rest, not even once.
Ning Ran was leaning so close to Nan Chen. Her warm breath along with the faint orange blossom scent was
tantalizing Nan Chen.
He had never once expected for this annoying woman to get so close to him!
Nan Chen was trying to retract himself by the corner.
But Ning Ran would not give up this comfortable position that she was in, given that she had just fallen asleep.
She moved her hands and wrapped it around his arms, with her head still leaning against Nan Chen's shoulders.
Jiang Zhe heard some weird noises behind and tried to look through the rearview mirror. He saw the entire situation
and was in great shock.
But it was no big deal for one to lend his shoulders to someone else. It was not even counted as intimacy.
But to Nan Chen, this was a great matter as he had never gotten so close to any females.
In fact, for the many years that Jiang Zhe had remained by Nan Chen, the number of women that could get in his
car was so few to the extent that Jiang Zhe could not even recall any.
It was the same for his previous rumored girlfriend, Luo Fei. She had never once rode in Nan Chen's car together
with him.
Ning Ran had not only gotten into Nan Chen's car but had even lent his shoulders to take a nap. This was a really
big deal.
But, isn't this woman Fourth Young Master's woman? This......
Eventually, Nan Chen still stretched out his hands and pushed Ning Ran's head to another side.
This time, Ning Ran did not lean against him again, but she curled up in the other corner, did a slight adjustment to
her posture and continued sleeping.
Nan Chen felt a burden lifted off his shoulders after he pushed her away.
There were three cars heading towards Tonglin County today. One was for Nan Chen, the other was to pick Zheng
Lunlun up, and the last one was to pick up the staff members who were heading down as well.
They were able to send out more cars originally, but if there were too many cars, it could be rather suspicious and
would not be in line with the theme of a charity event. Hence, they settled with using three cars.
It was initially intended for Ning Ran and Zheng Lunlun to ride the same car, but considering the misunderstanding
that the internet users have towards their relationship, Nan Chen decided that it was better for them to be in
separate cars to prevent further misunderstandings.
Furthermore, he also did not wish for Zheng Lunlun and Ning Ran to ride in the same car even though Nan Chen did
not have a reason for that.
That was why he decided to pick Ning Ran up but he did not expect for her to not only sleep like a pig but also lean
against him as a pillow rest. It was ridiculous.
“Jiang Zhe, help me contact the other two cars to get their location.” Nan Chen said.
“Yes, Sir Chen.” Jiang Zhe said as he fished out his phone.
“Sir Chen, they are already on the expressway.”
“Get them to gather at Liang Chuan Service Area.”
“Yes, Sir Chen.”
Meanwhile, Ning Ran had already fallen into a deep slumber, and had dreamt of the television series that she
casted in having an extremely high viewership rate. She even dreamt that she had obtained an award, and Nan
Chen was the one presenting it to her.
She has overjoyed that she was laughing to herself in her dreams.

By then, the car had already arrived at the Liang Chuan service area. When Nan Chen turned around to look at
Ning Ran, he could see her smiling slyly.
What is she laughing at?
Was she actually awake all these while yet pretended to be sleeping?
The car entered into the service area and the inertia resulting from the braking of the car that was initially
travelling at a high speed woke Ning Ran from her sleep.
Her first reaction was to reach out for her mouth to make sure that she was not drooling.
Thank goodness, she did not drool.
She then raised her head and saw Nan Chen's cold stares. This state was how exactly a person would look if the
other party owed him money.
“Are we here?” Ning Ran said as she rubbed her eyes, “So sorry, I fell asleep.”
Without saying a single word, Nan Chen opened the door and got out of the car.
Zheng Lunlun had been waiting at the service center. With a mask on his face, he came up to welcome their arrival,
“Third Uncle!”
After he finished greeting him, he rushed over to the car as he knew that Ning Ran was in it.
Although he was wearing a mask, Ning Ran could recognize Zheng Lunlun.
What she was most curious about, was whether his stammering was still there.
“Blondie!”
“Computer Guru!”
Nan Chen who was standing by the side frowned even deeper. What type of nicknames were this? What is Blondie?
What on earth is a Computer Guru?
When Zheng Lunlun was overseas, he had his hair dyed red, so he was called Blondie.
On the other hand, Ning Ran had been letting Dabao use her ID to play computer games with Zheng Lunlun. As
Dabao was very skillful in killing the enemies in the game, Zheng Lunlun adulated her and gave her the nickname of
Computer Guru.
Their revolutionary friendship can never be understood by anyone else, let alone their names which sound plain to
many.
Nan Chen obviously did not understand their friendship.
“Sigh, we cannot talk too much, your Third Uncle will get unhappy.” Ning Ran whispered as she gestured to him.
“Sure.” Zheng Lunlun agreed.
