Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

If Qiao Zhan had come, they could have resisted a little more fiercely.

It was natural for the driver to be unable to fend off Ruan Anxi, as he did not know the latter and would not have

expected such a pale and frail-looking man to be such a dangerous devil.

Ning Ran could not blame the driver. Instead, she wondered how Ruan Anxi had found her there.

“Let's go. Drive carefully and pay attention to safety,” Ruan Anxi ordered in his effeminate voice.

The driver was forced to drive.

As they passed the surveillance cameras in the parking lot, Ruan Anxi lowered his head to prevent the cameras

from capturing him.

After emerging from the parking lot, Ruan Anxi had the driver drive to the outskirts of the city and ordered him to

stop after arriving at a deserted area.

Then, he struck. Grabbing the driver's head from the back, he twisted violently, and, after an audible crack, the

driver fell limply onto the steering wheel.

After that, he turned to smile at Ning Ran. “He's fine, just unconscious. You'll take over the wheel. I don't want him

to kill the mood.”

“What are you going to do?” Ning Ran asked coldly.

“I'm not going to do anything. I just want to talk to you. I called to chat, but you didn't pick up, so I had no choice

but to come and look for you.” Ruan Anxi smiled sinisterly like a venomous snake.

After shoving the unconscious driver out of the car, Ruan Anxi had Ning Ran take the wheel while he sat beside her.

They took the highway back to the city, and upon stopping by the sidewalk, Ruan Anxi signaled for Ning Ran to stop

before entering a black RV waiting there.

Ning Ran cursed inwardly. History is repeating itself. He's kidnapping me again!

“Don't worry. I'm not going to kidnap you. I just want a chat, but I know you wouldn't see me, so I have to do this.”

Ruan Anxi lowered the scalpel and began washing his hands. He was meticulous in his endeavor and did it three

times.

Then, he produced a bottle of red wine, poured a glass, and slid it to Ning Ran.

Ning Ran did not take it. “Are you going to drug me again?”

“No, no. There are no drugs this time, unlike the last. We're just old friends catching up over a bottle of wine. I won't

drug you. Of course, you don't have to drink if you're unwilling. I won't force you.”

“Then I won't drink,” Ning Ran said curtly.

True to his word, Ruan Anxi did not force her but instead shook his head sadly. “What a shame. What a fine bottle of

wine this is.”

“How did you find me there?” Ning Ran asked the question that had been bothering her most.

Ruan Anxi chuckled as he swirled the glass.

His fingers were so slim and long that they looked like they were about to succumb under the weight of the glass.

“As I have been in Flower City for a while, I'd dropped by Raining Pavilion. It's a beautiful house, built to look like

those in science fiction movies. Turns out Nan Chen's taste isn't that bad after—”

Before Ruan Anxi finished speaking, the hairs on Ning Ran's back stood on end, and she yelled, “Don't you dare

intimidate my children!”

“I only made one round outside your house and did not bother your family. I am a civilized man, you know.” Ruan

Anxi sipped his wine.

“How did you find out where we live? Who told you?”

Already frightened, Ning Ran became even more so at the thought of the children living there.

“Aside from the internet as you know it, there exists a dark web which contains three times more information.

Everything is sold there, even illegal items you have never imagined. Since Nan Chen is a famous character in

Flower City, it's not difficult to purchase information regarding his private life. There is no such thing as privacy in

the internet age unless you hide in the jungle like me to avoid being tracked or surveyed,” said Ruan Anxi.

Ning Ran had heard Dabao speak of the dark web before, but she did not understand it.

Upon hearing Ruan Anxi's words, she felt an instinctive aversion to the dark web for the benefits it provided for

somebody like him.

“Don't worry. Though I know where you live, I didn't bother you, did I? My men coincidentally found out you left the

house, so they followed you. Thus, I guessed you came to do the program, so I tuned in. I even called in. Your voice

sounded amazing on the broadcast. It pleased me very much. It's too bad that you weren't communicative with me.

The host even cut my call short. I'll have somebody pierce his ears. He'll never be able to answer another call

again.”

“Don't do that! Why do you have to be so wicked? The host is innocent—don't hurt him!” Ning Ran cried out.

Ruan Anxi sighed. “Fine. As you say.”

“I want to go home. Say what you will, but I'm telling you, we're in Flower City. You wouldn't be able to escape if you

kidnapped me.”

Ruan Anxi nodded. “I know that. I wouldn't be able to escape, and I would very likely get shot if I aggravated Nan

Chen. However, I have no intention of kidnapping you. I just knocked your driver out, and I will compensate you for

the damages. I just want to catch up with you and talk business.”

“Just say what you will. It's late. I need to return.”

“All right, I'll have the driver send you home.”

Ning Ran was dubious. Is he really going to just send me back?

However, Ruan Anxi proved true to his word when he had his driver send them into the city.

On their way back, Ning Ran's phone rang. It was Nan Chen.

Ning Ran glanced at Ruan Anxi, feeling certain he would not allow her to pick up.

Yet, he did not show any signs of stopping her. He looked as if he did not care.

Upon witnessing his indifference, Ning Ran picked up the phone.

“Don't be afraid; we're right behind you,” came Nan Chen's voice. “Pass the phone to him.”

Ning Ran handed her phone to Ruan Anxi. “Nan Chen wants to speak to you.”

Ruan Anxi looked impatient. “What a drag it is that he caught up so quickly. I don't want to hold the phone. Put it on

speaker.”

Ning Ran put the phone on speaker, and Ruan Anxi asked darkly, “What is it now? I'm just having a drink with Ms.

Ning. What's with all this fuss?”

“If you dare harm Ning Ran, Ruan Anxi, tonight will be your last.” Nan Chen's voice sounded as cold as if it came

from the depths of hell.

“This is the sort of line I use to threaten people with on a daily basis. As a bad guy, it's normal for me to say these

words. But how could you, as a CEO, say such violent things?” Ruan Anxi said with a disappointed tone.

“Enough nonsense. Stop the car, and let Ning Ran out,” Nan Chen said coldly.

“And you. Since you care so much about her, you should do a better job at protecting her instead of letting her fall

so easily into the wrong hands. All you do is work and not care about her. I'm beginning to think you're not worthy

of her.”

Ruan Anxi sounded serious. To onlookers, it may even seem as if he was Ning Ran's family.
