Celebrity girl is my wife novel Chapter 221

They were now in a stalemate.

Ning Ran knew perfectly well that if she were to call the cops, Feng Minsheng would immediately snatch the phone away from her hands.

But if she were to make a commotion, that wouldn’t look good for her either.

What If someone were to record them with their phone and the footage became viral? Things might get a little troublesome.

Hence, Ning Ran decided that it was best to listen to what he had in mind.

Ning Ran took the initiative to sit down, before picking up her chopsticks once again and placing a piece of tofu into her mouth.

She then poured herself a glass of wine and chugged it down in one go.

Feng Minsheng was a little taken aback by her sudden change of behavior, but she seemed to have calmed down.

“Have a seat. Didn’t you say that you have something that you wanted to talk about?” said Ning Ran as she gestured for Feng Minsheng to sit.

Feng Minsheng hesitated momentarily before he complied.

“What is it? I’m on all ears,” said Ning Ran as she poured some wine for Feng Minsheng.

Feng Minsheng skipped the formalities and knocked back the drink.

“Indeed, I have been in contact with Uncle Ning and Aunt Luo, that I do admit. But it is not what you think.”

“Continue,” Ning Ran prompted.

“They truly care for you, but they know that you feel nothing but contempt for them. That is why they decided to keep a distance and had me approach you in their stead.”

“Then I guess I have to thank you, since you came here to take care of me on behalf of my dad,” said Ning Ran sarcastically.

“I know that it is hard for you to believe what I have just said, but that is the truth,” replied Feng Minsheng shamelessly.

“Hey, I do believe you. I even wanted to thank you,” snickered Ning Ran.

“Ran, you are currently working as an actress, and you have a bright future ahead of you. There is no need for you to marry into the Nan household. You will do just fine without them,” Feng Minsheng continued.

“I know. I’m still waiting for you to give me a good life,” Ning Ran quipped with a laugh.

“You don’t have to trust me right now, but I will prove to you that I have the ability to make you happy.”

“How’s my dad doing?” Ning Ran asked as she poured refilled his wineglass.

“He’s doing just fine, but the company is struggling. It has been losing money for the past two years and incurred a large amount of debt. Who knows how long it might last,” answered Feng Minsheng.

It was all within Ning Ran’s expectations. The reason the company was doing fine previously was only due to her mother’s management.

While Ning Ziqiang was the chairman of the company, it was all just for show. From management to operation, her mother was the one who did everything behind the scenes.

Ever since they murdered her mum and took charge of the company, the company had been going downhill.

The only reason the company hadn’t gone bust was because of the strong foundation that her mum had established. The market that she had single-handedly created was large enough to last them a few years.

But no matter how strong the foundation was, it would be impossible to sustain them forever if the management was incompetent, especially in an ever-changing world of business.

They’re just getting what they deserved.

“Do they have any plans to revive business? Or are they just going to watch the company go under?” asked Ning Ran.

Feng Minsheng opened his mouth to reply, but the words got stuck in his throat.

Looking at Feng Minsheng’s expression, Ning Ran knew that she had asked the right question.

His hesitation revealed that it was somehow related to Ning Ran.

At this moment, a waiter approached them and asked them if there was anything that he could help them with.

As Ning Ran gestured for the bill, Feng Minsheng took the initiative to pay for both of them.

Ning Ran scoffed internally at his suggestion. Merely twenty million? His ambition is too small! Others would have asked for a billion!
