Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

In the ward, Dabao broke into tears when he saw Erbao. “I'm sorry for not taking good care of you. I should've been

there with you.”

Dabao was utterly remorseful when he saw how pale and weak his sister was.

Erbao was very thoughtful. When she saw her brother crying, she immediately tried to sit up and smile. “I'm okay,

Dabao!”

“Are you sure you're okay? Does your stomach hurt?”

She shook her head. “No! It doesn't hurt at all. I'll get discharged soon.”

“Discharged? Why? Why are you in such a hurry to leave the hospital?” Dabao asked.

“I need to go filming!” she exclaimed.

“What? How could you still think about filming at this point? If it wasn't for filming, none of this would've happened!

You should stop at once!” He put on a stern face.

Erbao's initially pale face turned red when she heard that. “I want to go filming! How could you stop me from doing

that? I want to get discharged now!”

“Stop messing around, Darling. You need to get well soon. Behave yourself, okay?” Ning Ran urged.

“Daddy, I'm not allowed to film because I'm sick?” Tears were streaming down Erbao's cheeks.

Nan Chen and Ning Ran exchanged glances. Is this child so in love with filming? How is she still thinking about that

when she's so frail?

It seemed like Erbao wasn't doing it just for fun. She loved what she was doing.

“Don't worry, Darling. Once you get better, you can go back to filming, okay?” Nan Chen reassured.

“But the directing team had already arranged for Erbao to film. Due to the fact that she's starting school soon, they

want her to finish filming before then. If she's not going over today, I ought to apply for a leave of absence for her.

Otherwise, up to a hundred people would be waiting for her to show up,” Ning Ran said.

“No!” Nan Chen insisted.

“What? Does it mean I won't get to film again? Then I should leave this hospital at once.” Erbao was struggling to

get out of bed.

“Calm down, Darling.” Nan Chen stopped her. “We'll let you film when you get better. I promise you!”

“Why shouldn't we apply for a leave of absence? Is it because that might cause some rumors to spread around?”

Ning Ran asked curiously.

“Exactly. As long as it's something that concerns me and the Nan family, we shouldn't let anyone find out about the

truth. That's because we haven't figured out the culprit's motive and intention. Now, we have no idea what our

counterpart is planning to do next. We should just act normally and investigate quietly. In other words, we have to

let our counterparts think that nothing has happened yet. That way, they'll do something again because they'll get

impatient. We can only catch them when they try to make another move and slip up,” Nan Chen explained patiently.

What should we say to them if we're not supposed to apply for a leave of absence? However, everyone's going to

start speculating if we do that. By then, the culprits will find out the truth. This situation is tricky. Nan Chen paced

back and forth with his head lowered while trying to think of something.

He then raised his head and said, “We can let Erbao go and show up for a while. We can just tell them she's having

the flu, and she's not feeling well. She can leave after that. As long as the people see her there, we'll be fine.”

“In her current state, Erbao can't possibly go there. Considering how frail and weak she is, everyone can tell she's

seriously ill at first glance. No matter what, I won't let Erbao go to the filming site. She needs to rest. At this

moment, there's nothing more important than her getting well.” Ning Ran didn't approve of Nan Chen's idea.

“Obviously, I'm not going to let Erbao go there either, considering how weak she is. However, someone can be her

substitute,” Nan Chen uttered.

Finally, Ning Ran knew what he meant and shot Dabao a look.

The boy understood right away. “I can pretend to be Erbao, but I'm not going to wear a skirt!”

Although the kids were of different genders, they were still too young for people to spot a difference in their figures.

Since Dabao was a pretty boy, he'd had no problem pretending to be a girl.

The only problem was that Erbao was a foodie. Hence, she had chubbier cheeks compared to Dabao.

However, only those close to them would notice the difference upon closer inspection.

Erbao was ecstatic when she heard that. “Dabao is going to pretend to be me! This is going to be fun!”

“Wouldn't it be hard? Not only do we have different hairstyles, but I also can't talk as adorably as Erbao,” Dabao

said in frustration.

“You can wear a cap, and I'll put lipstick on you. No one will notice it if you were to wear a pink sweater and a scarf

to cover your cheeks,” Ning Ran uttered.

“Okay, then,” Dabao answered helplessly.

“Right. Let's get prepared.”

“Daddy, have you found out who tried to harm Erbao?” Dabao asked.

“Not yet. Do you have any ideas in mind?” Nan Chen knew how smart his son was, so he didn't bother to hide

anything from him. Instead, he was open to suggestions.

“While I was on my way here, I've already discussed with Mr. Qiao. I think it's someone we know very well.

Otherwise, that person wouldn't have known Erbao is a fool for desserts.”

“Yes.” Nan Chen was very pleased that his son could think of that.

“What else?” Nan Chen asked.

“Since Erbao and I are just kids, we wouldn't have any enemies. The culprit was getting back at an adult. Generally,

revenge among men wouldn't involve a trick such as poisoning. They'd usually go for murdering or causing a car

crash. Hence, I think the culprit is a woman,” Dabao suggested.

Nan Chen and Ning Ran were bewildered, and they both gazed at their son.

Indeed, an idea of such had never crossed their minds. That was because it was a wild guess without a basis to it.

“I'm just guessing, and it's just my instinct. For example, Daddy would never resort to poisoning if he was plotting

against someone. In fact, only weaker individuals would use a sinister trick, such as poisoning. Also, only a woman

would be observant enough to notice that Erbao likes desserts. Again, I'm just speculating,” Dabao said anxiously.

“No. You do have a point!” Nan Chen nodded, and Ning Ran thought so as well.

“Who could it be? From all the women we know, who would want to harm my daughter?” Ning Ran queried.

Truth be told, Ouyang Qing popped up in Ning Ran's mind as she was pondering. However, she dared not to speak

her mind. The Ouyang family and the Nan family are close to each other. In fact, they're currently working together

on multiple matters.

Without any proof, even Nan Chen dared not to speculate. If those two families were to have a fallout, it'd be a

massive war between two powerful families in the province.

If unnecessary, no one from either party would be willing to have a go against the other. The consequences of such

a fallout could be detrimental to both parties.

Ning Ran wasn't going to mention the name that popped up in her mind. If anything, I should let Nan Chen say it

himself.

“Could it be—” Nan Chen stopped halfway through his sentence.

“Perhaps we shouldn't jump to conclusions first. I'll get to the bottom of it. Dabao, get ready to go visit the filming

site, okay? I'll have to go back to the office for a meeting so that everything would seem fine. I suspect someone is

planning a move against Nanshi Corporation. I can't let that happen,” Nan Chen said.
