As Ning Ran came out of the lift, she lifted her eyes and saw Nan Chen.
He was so good-looking that he always stood out amongst the crowd.
Although she did not realize it, she looked stunning too.
The moment she appeared, every lady in the hotel lobby seemed dull and colorless in comparison.
The moment their eyes met, they became the most beautiful object to each other.
When Ning Ran saw him, she felt a sense of affection and comfort even though his face was expressionless.
She quickened her steps as she went towards Nan Chen but she forgot that she was wearing 10 cm high heels for
this function.
These high heels were the most unfit shoes for running in the world. As she came close to Nan Chen, she stumbled
and fell forward just like the way it would be filmed in a drama series.
However, Nan Chen’s reaction was quicker than any hero in those drama series. He leapt forward like a leopard
and caught hold of Ning Ran.
Ning Ran’s body fell forward quite heavily due to the momentum of her movement but Nan Chen was steady as he
caught her deftly in his firm embrace.
Ouyang Qi just watched on as he wondered what they were up to. Are they acting for me the roles of a knight in
shining armor saving a damsel in distress?
I am the knight who saved this damsel and I was the one who helped her out of the mess then. Why is Nan Chen
reaping the benefits?
Suddenly, he felt extremely regretful. He regretted that he did not sign up for some martial arts classes and
practiced hard. If he had, he would be the one to leap forward to catch her and prevent her from falling. Nan Chen
would not have claimed the credit then.
When Ning Ran lifted her head, she saw Nan Chen’s face with perfect contours and he was way better looking than
those young hunks who had gone for numerous plastic surgeries.
The scent of orange blossoms drifted in gently and Nan Chen’s heart skipped a beat. Unknowingly his arms
tightened and drew the woman closer in him.
The two of them acted like in a romantic drama series, hugging and gazing at each other for a few seconds.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOuyang Qi watched the scene and his heart was consumed by the flames of jealousy. He felt that he had been
robbed by Nan Chen. He was the one who saved this woman from a predicament. Why should Nan Chen be the one
to embrace her?
“Hey, that’s enough. Don’t go overboard. Time to let go of each other,” Ouyang Qi went to them and said angrily.
Now Ning Ran was embarrassed. She blushed while she quickly struggled out of Nan Chen’s arms.
Nevertheless, after letting go of her, Nan Chen’s gaze lingered on her body. He was looking at the branded clothes
she was wearing.
Prior to this, Ouyang Qi had mentioned that he had prepared some clothes for Ning Ran. So, these must the
clothes.
To be honest, these clothes were quite costly although they were not the same brand that Nan Chen had bought.
Still, these were made by an international brand.
Furthermore, Ouyang Qi had good taste. It was a long black dress which was simple and classy so Ning Ran looked
mature and aristocratic in it.
Coincidentally, the dress that Nan Chen had asked someone to buy was almost the same style. It was also a black
dress.
Though there were slight differences in the design, the overall effect was similar.
However, Nan Chen was still frowning. “Go and change out of this dress!”
Ning Ran was taken aback. This is a brand new dress. Why do I need to change it?
Furthermore, she had made an effort to look at herself in the mirror and she looked great in it. Why should I change
it?
Nan Chen picked up the bag of clothes and handed it to Ning Ran. “Go and put on this dress.”
Seeing this, Ouyang Qi was upset.
“What is that for? This costume is new, it fits hers and she looks good in it. Why must she change it?”
“She’s the spokesperson for another brand. She shouldn’t be wearing this brand.” Nan Chen replied coldly.
“The brand you bought isn’t that particular brand too. Why can she wear it then?”
“She will be the spokesperson for this brand soon.” Nan Chen’s voice was cold.
“Well, isn’t there no endorsement yet? You’re doing this on purpose...”
Nan Chen interrupted Ouyang Qi, “This is none of your business. Please step aside.”
“Why is it none of my business? I bought it.”
“All the more reason she shouldn’t wear it. Your tacky influence is stuck on it!”
“I’m not tacky! You are the one who is tacky. I bought for her branded clothes!”
“They are tacky because you bought them!” Nan Chen concluded decisively.
“You are the tacky one. Whatever you buy is tacky because you are tacky.” Ouyang Qi was exasperated.
Ignoring Ouyang Qi, Nan Chen looked at Ning Ran. “Why are you still here? You can’t wear this brand of clothing
from now onwards.”
Ning Ran was torn in between.
Even though she was not too fond of Ouyang Qi, she appreciated what he did today they were done out of good
intentions.
Besides, these clothes really looked good. Now that Nan Chen wanted her to change out of them, she felt that it
was an insult to Ouyang Qi.
She just thought this was downright rude.
“Don’t stand here anymore. Just go and get changed. You are an artist in my company, so you must not do
anything that is against the interests of the company,” Nan Cheng said.
Ouyang Qi could not bear it any longer. “How is she going against your company’s interests?”
“She is doing that when she wears clothes from a competing brand’.”
“But, she is now not the spokesperson for this brand yet.”
“She will be soon. The agreement is in the final stages of discussion and it will be signed tomorrow.” Nan Chen said
firmly.
Ning Ran did not know if what Nan Chen said was true but looking at Nan Chen’s demeanor, she knew that he
would go on badgering he until she changed her clothes.
“Since there is a conflict of interest with the brands, then please give me a minute while I’ll go and get changed.”
Ning Ran finally agreed.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFinally, Nan Chen was pleased.
Ouyang Qi was seething was anger but there was nothing he could do.
Neither was he certain if what Nan Chen said was true. If there was a conflict of interest, then Ning Ran really could
not wear clothes by other brands, especially those of major competitors.
At the very least, not at a public function and if she did, the logo must not be visible.
Ning Ran turned around and went back to the room to change. Nan Chen looked at Ouyang Qi, “Why aren’t you
leaving yet?”
“What about you?” Ouyang Qi asked him the same question.
“I’m waiting for someone.”
“I am waiting for someone, too. I was the one who saved her and we had agreed to have lunch together,” Ouyang
Qi said.
“She has canceled the lunch appointment with you. I have urgent some business with her.”
“Why must she go with you when you come to take her out? What is her relationship with you?”
“She is one of my artists. When I need to talk with her about work, no outsiders are allowed to be present.” Nan
Chen said sharply.
“That’s an excuse. What type of work has to be discussed immediately?”
“You have no right to know. Please leave now.”
Nan Chen turned away and did not look at Ouyang Qi anymore.
Ouyang Qi was indignant for Nan Chen had gone overboard.
“Nan Chen, I have been a great help to you. You are totally ungrateful. Don’t you think your behavior is
unacceptable?” Ouyang Qi yelled.
“When did you ever help me?”
“The incident involving Ye Meng. Did I not help you? If it were not for my video recording...”
“What video recording? I have forgotten about such incident.” Nan Chen stopped Ouyang Qi from bringing up the
incident.
“I’ll leave now. You are really an ungrateful person. So, this is the type of person Sir Chen is! Well, I have seen it
myself.”
“Now that you have seen me clearly, please leave quickly.”
