Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

“Don't touch him!” Ouyang Qing shouted.

Nan Xing's movement was restrained. With his head facing downward, he could not see what Ouyang Qing did.

Shortly after, he heard her yelp in pain. She's either being pushed down or kicked by someone.

Moments later, another scream was heard. He guessed that they were beating her up.

Nan Xing could not withstand the pitiful groans. “That's enough! Don't lay a finger on the woman. Come for me

instead!”

“You despicable swine, trying to act all righteous?” Another punch was aimed at Nan Xing's chest.

“You're the beast, not me! How dare you hit me? Just you wait!”

He might have a carefree spirit, but he was also a man of pride deep down.

“I'm hitting you, so what? Aren't you an animal for harming your own niece? Chuck him away!” the leader of the

gang commanded fiercely.

With that, Nan Xing was carried up and thrown outside of the window.

A strong gust of chilly wind swept past him as his body went on a free fall.

There was no time for him to think. Two words flashed across his mind—I'm doomed.

Thump!

Within seconds, he fell face down on the water and an excruciating pain washed him over.

Pitch dark vision greeted his sight as inertia pushed his body backward and deeper into the water.

He gulped a mouthful and felt slightly dizzy.

Luckily, he was a good swimmer and managed to adjust himself accordingly.

If a playboy can't swim, how can I have a jolly good time with girls in the pool?

Upon finding his balance, Nan Xing adjusted his position and turned himself upright to float above the water level.

He struggled to grasp for air. No way, they will know that I'm not dead should they jump in to check on me.

Hence, he quickly made his way across the shore to the opposite side of the river.

Finally, he got himself to safety. He used up all his might to get on land and took deep breaths.

The wound on his arm was still bleeding.

He whipped out his phone, only to realize that it was out of order.

Since the river was meandering across the city, there was an inn nearby. It was not a five-star hotel, but a rundown

property.

Due to pollution, rumor had it that all the buildings within a hundred feet of the river would be demolished. Nan Xing

could see that demolition was in progress.

Drenched, he walked to the inn.

To his surprise, no one was at the reception desk.

Nan Xing called out, but no one answered.

There was a phone at the checkout counter. He hurried over, wanting to call for help.

As soon as he picked up the receiver, he subconsciously dialed Nan Chen's number.

Right when he was two numbers short of completing the call, he recalled those harsh words said to him earlier.

B*stard... Hurt your own niece... Wait, how did those people know that Erbao was poisoned? Moreover, I vaguely

heard them mention the word 'Chen'...

Nan Xing hesitated. Though he knew that it was wrong of him to doubt his own brother, he could not help it.

I'll call Qiao Zhan.

Once again, when he was halfway making the call, another thought dawned on him. Qiao Zhan has a very close

relationship with Dabao and Erbao. He even shed a tear when Erbao was in trouble. Since he cared for Erbao so

much, would he possibly be...

Nan Xing felt so cold in his wet clothes. The low temperature in the hall made it worse.

Who should I call? Grandpa? No, I'll scare him to his wits with my current condition.

Right when he was struggling in a quandary, a heavy object smashed into his head, knocking him out cold.

When he regained consciousness, he found himself tied up.

The more he tried to set himself free, the more he felt the severe pain on his arm.

“The dude is up,” a lady doing housekeeping nearby announced.

“What do you want? Let me go!” Nan Xing demanded loudly.

“How dare you broke in for burglary! The bad guy is up!” the lady looked upstairs and yelled.

“I'm coming,” a man indicated.

A tall and sturdy fellow in his twenties walked down hastily.

“You look decent. Why did you become a thief? Let me guess, you're a drug addict who has got no more money

left. That's why you resorted to stealing things?” the guy questioned Nan Xing.

“What nonsense? I'm here to borrow the phone. No one was here, so I...”

“We weren't here, so you seized the opportunity to steal?” the lady asked.

Nan Xing glanced at her. She's quite pretty. It's a shame she's so fierce.

“I'm not a thief. I'm a decent guy! Let me go,” Nan Xing pleaded helplessly.

“Let you go? Dream on! Tell me honestly, why did you have your eyes on our inn? You're injured. Are these wounds

from an unsuccessful theft before you broke into our place? You're a fugitive finding a hiding place?”

The man grabbed a chair and sat in front of Nan Xing, interrogating him like a criminal.

“I'm not a bad guy. If you don't believe me, you can call the police and get them to investigate,” Nan Xing

suggested.

“No, you're here at my place. I must question you first. Come clean with me now. What's up with all these wounds?

Did you go through a failed attempt of robbery and a counterattack, resulting in you showing up here to try your

luck?” the young man glared at him.

Nan Xing was rendered speechless.

I'm certain that this guy is using this golden chance to realize his dream of being a police.

“Fine, go ahead and interrogate me all you want. I'm injured. My wounds need to be treated. Moreover, I'm all wet

and feeling really cold.” Nan Xing had no more energy to argue with him.

“What's your name?” the guy asked.

“Nan Xing.”

As soon as he said his name, Nan Xing regretted it. If he knows I'm from a wealthy family, will he blackmail me?

Thankfully, the guy could not be bothered. And so it seems that my name is not as renowned as Sir Chen in Flower

City.

“Commoner Residence,” Nan Xing added.

Since I've mentioned my name, I might as well reveal my address too. Furthermore, it might be hard for me to get

out of this place if I don't explain everything clearly.

“Commoner Residence?”

The guy turned to his sister. “Jamie, Commoner Residence sounds very familiar. That's where he claims to live.”

“Don't listen to his bullsh*t. Commoner Residence is the Nan family villa. How is it possible that a thief can afford a

unit there?” Jamie found it absurd.

“Oh, he said his surname is Nan,” the guy said.

“Huh?” Jamie approached him and asked, “What's your name again?”

Nan Xing lifted his head. “I am Nan Xing, Nan Chen's brother.”

Since he was not as popular as his brother, Nan Xing specifically indicated his brother's name.

Jamie was shocked to the core.

Since Nan Xing was soaked in water for a long time, his wet hair clung like tendrils, covering half of his face.

Looking completely disheveled, Jamie did not notice his looks.

Now that he mentioned, Jamie thought he looked familiar. Have I seen him somewhere?

“Sweep his hair to the side.”

The guy did as his sibling had requested. He brushed Nan Xing's hair away, revealing a handsome face.

“Oh my goodness!” Jamie let out a cry.

Immediately, she whipped out her phone and searched for his photo online.

To her disbelief, she exclaimed, “He.. He really is...”
