Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

Meanwhile, Nan Xing arrived.

He didn't look good as he hadn't gotten much sleep the night before.

Nonetheless, he heaved a sigh of relief when he noticed Erbao looked better.

“Darling, what do you feel like eating? I'll get it for you.” Nan Xing sat before Erbao's hospital bed, clutching her

little hands.

Erbao simply shook his head, signaling her lack of appetite.

“What about your favorite butter cake?” Nan Xing asked.

The moment that was mentioned, Erbao panicked and exclaimed, “I don't want any cake! I will never touch one in

my lifetime!”

The miserable look on her face showed the traumatic experience that she went through, and she was even terrified

of her favorite food!

“Don't worry, my cake is not poisoned; it's perfectly safe.” Nan Xing sympathized with her.

“I don't want it! I don't want it! I'm not going to eat it!”

“What about chicken drumstick? It's your favorite too!”

“I don't want it as well.” Erbao shook her head again.

“Lobsters?”

“I don't want it!”

Nan Xing continued to mention numerous foods that Er Bao enjoyed, but she refused to eat any of them.

As her body was too frail, she had no appetite.

Besides, thoughts about the poisoning still lingered in her mind, which would be devasting to any child.

“My dear, what do you want to eat?”

“All I want to do is lie down. I don't want to eat anything.”

Immediately noticing Nan Xing's displeasure, Er Bao tried to console him, “Uncle Xing, I'll join you for a food hunt

when I get better, okay?”

Nan Chen nodded excitedly. “After you recover, I will buy you anything that you want to eat!”

Then, he turned around and noticed Ning Ran putting lipstick on Dabao's lips.

“Hey! What are you doing? Are you really putting on lipstick?” Nan Xing exclaimed.

“Please refer to me as Ning Sirui.” Dabao rolled his eyes.

“Are you trying to imitate Erbao?” Nan Xing got it right away.

“I am not trying to imitate. I am her,” Dabao corrected Nan Xing.

“Okay, you're the boss. Please do as you please. In fact, you're the best when it comes to this.” Nan Xing waved his

hand.

“I need to pay a visit to the company. You and Qiao Zhan should stay here to keep an eye on Erbao. “No one was

allowed to enter the ward save for doctors and certain designated nurses. “The entire floor has been cleared, and

any trespassers will be immediately arrested.

“Doctors and nurses have to remove their masks before entering the ward.

“Make sure you double-check everything before allowing them to enter the ward.” Nan Chen reminded.

“Don't worry, Nan Xing. If anything comes up, I'll pay with my death.” Nan Xing was willing to go to the extreme.

“All right, let's go.”

Nan Chen and Ning Ran did not exit by the main entrance but instead took stairs from a side door to the parking lot.

After half an hour, Ning Ran and Dabao arrived on set.

As it was still early, the crew was still prepping, and the work had yet to begin.

Dabao was carrying Erbao's tiny bag full of candies, and he distributed it to all passersby.

No one noticed anything odd.

Then, Ning Ran called the director and asked if the filming could be postponed, on the pretext that relatives of the

Nan family would like to see Erbao.

Expectedly, the director had no objection to the request, given that it was the Nan family that was coming after all.

He immediately canceled Erbao's original schedule and replaced it with a different set of actors.

“Thank you! I'll head off then.”

The director smiled. “Don't worry about it!”

At the exit, they bumped into Tang Jing. “Are you not filming today, Ding?”

“I have relatives coming over to visit Erbao. Old Master Nan and Old Madam Feng insisted that I bring the children

over, so I have no choice but to accede. I apologize for causing a delay in the filming progress,” replied Ning Ran.

“It's fine. It's always more important when it comes to the Nan family. See you!” Tang Jing waved her hand.

Dabao remained silent and merely waved his hand in response.

Ning Ran and Dabao got into the car and hastily departed.

In Orchid Club.

The phone rang, and Ouyang Duo answered it before eventually locking his gaze on Ouyang Qing.

“Why don't you trust me, Dad? I sent the cakes, both at the same time, to the production team and to Nan Chen. It

goes without saying that kids enjoy desserts the most, and my plan will surely work. The Nan family must be in a

catatonic state right now!” said Ouyang Qing.

“However, my source informed me that Nan Chen had just shown up at Nanshi Corporation to attend a meeting.

Everything seems to be normal,” replied Ouyang Duo.

“Are you telling me that even if his daughter has just passed away, he can still go to work like normal? What kind of

a person is he?” Ouyang Qing muttered.

“Impossible. No matter how strong Nanchen appears to be, he will surely be affected if his daughter dies,” replied

Ouyang Duo.

“The poison in the cake, in the smallest concentration, can easily kill a puppy. I know because I have tried it before.

Now, it would be impossible that his daughter of young age can survive it.” Ouyang Qing was similarly taken aback.

“Then, it may be possible that she did not eat the cake! No one witnessed if she did. At the end of the day, you're

just guessing. What if she did not eat it?” Ouyang Duo exclaimed.

“I don't think it's possible. That kid has a sweet tooth. She cannot resist eating them no matter how full she is. This

is not in keeping with her personality.” Ouyang Qing was so sure.

However, Ouyang Duo did not buy that. “As I previously stated, this is just your own assumption. We need proof to

back it up. “At the moment, there is nothing unusual in the Nan family; everything seems to be normal.

“Previously, we still have funds with the Nanshi Corporation, and now we need to throw in more funds.

“How do you expect me to explain this to my partners? “I assured them that this would be profitable, but it turns

out to be the opposite. My reputation has gone down the drain and they will not trust me anymore in the future!”

Ouyang Duo was enraged since his attempts to overthrow the Nan family had not been successful.

His son was unreliable, and her daughter, who he had always been proud of, also failed to meet his expectations.

She had not only failed to bring glory to the Ouyang family, but also became a laughing stock on the Internet.

Everything added up and Ouyang Duo's animosity towards the Nan family grew.

“I'm going to meet Tang Jing to check what happened.” Ouyang Qing stood up.

“Is she the actress who's helping you?” Ouyang Duo asked.

“Yes, she's in the production team, and she would be aware of the situation over there.”

“Don't approach her. If someone finds out, she's just a chest piece that can be discarded. Don't let her implicate

you if something goes wrong.” Ouyang Duo raised his voice.

“However, meeting her is the only way that I can find out more about the situation right now.”

“Simply call and ask her. Nan Chen is a cunning and sly fella. He may have spies everywhere. The moment you

contact her, Nan Chen will be alerted immediately.”

Ouyang Duo, an old fox that he was, had thought of a safer approach to the situation.

“All right, I'll call her and ask if that's okay?”

Ouyang Duo replied, “It's better not to contact her directly; instead, contact other members of the production

team, such as the director. Remember to tread lightly and don't push your luck.

“The most crucial thing is to clarify if the child has shown up on set today.

If she were there, that means that she did not eat the cake.”

“All right, I'll call the director now.”

Ouyang Qing reached for his phone and dialed the director's number.
