Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

Ning Ran's method worked. Nan Chen couldn't manage any response.

He had always been a quiet person, so he wasn't good at quarreling.

He couldn't come up with a retort if Ning Ran chewed him out.

All he could do was simply stared at her as though he was trying to see through her.

Ning Ran huffed, then pointed at the red print on her face. “Look at this. This was Ouyang Qing's doing. Do you see

the swollen handprint? Do you think I can stay calm when someone gets rough with me?”

Nan Chen shifted his gaze to the red marks on her face. Coldness filled his eyes at the sight.

“I won't let this matter slide so easily, but you have to tell me the relationship between you and Ouyang Qi,” Nan

Chen said.

“You're doing it again! Someone slapped me but did you care about that? No, you didn't. All you cared about was

my relationship with others. I'm done talking with you!”

Ning Ran walked away from him to the side to use her phone.

Nan Chen got a feeling that Ning Ran was hiding something from him, but he didn't know what it was.

Resentment filled him, yet he was helpless, unable to do anything about it. He couldn't actually use any

interrogation method on her.

“Since we were done with the household registration, Grandpa had arranged for his lawyer to transfer the shares.

Before the kids are legal adults, you'll be handling the commission from their shares,” Nan Chen informed.

“Is that a lot of money?” Ning Ran asked excitedly.

“Not too much, just tens of millions,” Nan Chen replied nonchalantly.

Ning Ran almost spit out the water she had just drunk. How many zeros are there in ten million?

“I don't use that much money,” Ning Ran added.

“I said you can manage it, not spend it. My advice is to let a third party handle the commissions. The money is

nothing but paper in your hands.

“If there's a need, you can withdraw some of it, but I'm warning you. This money is for the kids' education funds

and other uses. You can't use them for your own purposes.”

Ning Ran was infuriated at his accusation. “You're scared of me coveting the Nan family's money? I have never said

I would manage the kids' shares, so why are you telling me this? I raised the kids for five years without the Nan

family's help, and they're fine, aren't they? Do you think I need somebody else's money to raise my own kids?”

Her biting remark rendered Nan Chen speechless.

“That was not what I meant, I was just...”

Nan Chen didn't know how to explain it to her, but it definitely wasn't about Ning Ran coveting the money.

He was trying to tell her there was no need to use the commissions for the kids' daily necessities. He would be

paying for it as their father.

If she let a professional party handle the large sum of money, she would get more money.

On the other hand, the money would only end up being deposited in the bank, gaining an immaterial interest if it

was left in her hands. It would be a waste.

Nan Chen was also worried about the investment scams going around lately. He feared she would be tricked into

making a failing investment since she was new to the stock market. The money wouldn't be the only loss, he would

be humiliated as well.

Nan Chen didn't have a way of telling all those to Ning Ran, hence the misunderstanding.

Ning Ran's ruthless rebuttal left him speechless.

“I get it. Don't worry. I won't touch that money.”

Ning Ran knew her words were too ruthless earlier, so she tried to backpedal it.

“I'm not worried about you touching that money. I was trying to tell you that I would be paying for the kids' daily

expenses.

“If you need a large sum of money, you can inform me earlier. However, it's best to leave the share's commission

to a professional organization to handle. Their value will increase when the kids grow up.

“If Nanshi Corporation can continue its development, the stock's value will increase tremendously in a decade or so.

We can give it to them as a coming-of-age present by then. That'll be more meaningful.”

Ning Ran was embarrassed about her biting remarks earlier after Nan Chen explained.

“Ouyang Qi didn't tell me anything else. He told me Ouyang Duo was not a good person. Ouyang Duo asked him to

target you, so he wanted us to be more careful. That was it.”

Nan Chen knew Ning Ran didn't tell him the whole truth, but he knew he wouldn't be getting it from her. So he

decided to drop it.

“All right.”

Meanwhile, Nan Xing was playing a video game when he got a call from Bai Hua requesting to pick her up from the

mall.

After Bai Hua split up from Ouyang Qing, she thought it would be boring to stay at home, so she went shopping at

the nearby malls.

When she first got back from overseas, she didn't dare to leave the house much because Nan Zhengde had

forbidden her from sauntering around. He didn't want anyone to know she had returned.

After that, she realized that her worries were unnecessary. Time had passed, and she was no longer the infamous

Madam Nan of Flower City.

Many had forgotten about her. There were many incidents when she showed up in the public, but no one seemed to

recognize her. That was when she realized the city had forgotten about her.

Hence, she was free now. She didn't have to stay at home all the time, worrying about others recognizing her.

Nan Xing soon arrived and helped Bai Hua with all her shopping bags.

“Mom, why did you buy so much stuff? You can ask us to go in your stead if you need anything. You're not feeling

well right now, so quit running around. Grandpa is not happy about you running around the city,” Nan Xing

complained.

“Even you're telling me what to do. Do I have no say in anything? There's nothing wrong with me going shopping.

Do I not even have that right? I was bored and just wanted to get some fresh air, and I couldn't even do that? Your

grandpa won't like me anyway, so I don't care about his opinion. He won't be alive for long anyway,” Bai Hua said

cruelly.

“Mom, how can you say that about Grandpa?” Nan Xing couldn't listen to it anymore. “That was because you and

Dad were in the wrong, so Grandpa had to look out for you guys.”

“What do you even know? He's biased! I might not even use all the stuff that I bought. I was just spending money

because I was bored. I can always throw it away if I don't need it!” Bai Hua refuted angrily.

“All right! All right. You do whatever makes you happy. It's fine, buy whatever you want.” Nan Xing didn't want to

piss her off anymore.

“There's something you should tell your brother. His actress was flirting with some guy again. I saw her getting in

Ouyang Qi's car.

“Is your brother blind or something? Why is he letting that girl do anything she wants? Couldn't he see that actress

just wanted his money? Why is he still involved with her?

“Isn't it humiliating for him that his woman was always hanging out with that boy from the Ouyang family? You have

to tell him about this! I know he won't listen to me, so you have to be the one to tell it to him.”

That was one of the reasons Bai Hua asked Nan Xing to pick her up.

Nan Xing truly disliked her words.

He thought they were too harsh and didn't like listening to them. Every word out of her mouth was aggressive.

“Mom, stop badmouthing Ning Ran. She's not the person you say she is. Being an actress is a legitimate occupation.

She worked for the food on her table and that wasn't anything bad at all. You didn't have to badmouth the entire

industry.”
