Ning Ran held her children’s hand as they walked down the stairs and saw a Rolls-Royce parked outside.
“It’s Uncle Nan Chen’s car!” said Erbao happily.
You two really are getting cozy, huh? You even remembered his car. thought Ning Ran.
Little traitor!
Jiang Zhe got out of the car and said, “This way, Ms. Ding.”
“Hello, Uncle Jiang Zhe,” said Erbao who acted like they knew each other really well.
Ning Ran thought that was weird so she asked, “What did you call them?”
Jiang Zhe smiled brightly, but he didn’t say a word. Instead, he bowed and gestured her to get on.
The moment the door was opened, she realized that the car that Nan Chen used for all occasions had been installed with two baby car seats.
It was obvious that it was prepared just for the kids. Ning Ran never realized just how much Nan Chen cared about them.
They drove without speaking.
Jiang Zhe was meticulous and didn’t talk to Ning Ran or tried to get to know her.
He was instructed to drive Ning Ran and her kids to their destination, and he was not in a position to talk to her.
Besides, he didn’t want to get on Ning Ran’s bad side because the beautiful woman in front of him was no longer an ordinary person. She was the future wife of Nan Xing, the fourth son of the Nan Family.
Nan Xing was not as powerful as Nan Chen, but he was still Nan Chen’s twin brother so his influence and power should not be underestimated.
Ning Ran didn’t try to get a conversation going either. As far as she was concerned Jiang Zhe was Nan Chen’s ‘translator’.
Since he was willing to work with Nan Chen, he must be just as despicable as the poker face.
Erbao wanted to chat but she saw that the adults being quiet so she didn’t dare to speak either.
Everyone was silent until they reached their destination. The moment they got out of the car, they realized that they weren’t at the hospital. Instead, they were at the private car park inside the Nanshi Corporation Headquarters.
Jiang Zhe got out first to open the door for Ning Ran and the others. “This way, Ms. Ding, and please do watch your step.”
“What are we doing here? Aren’t we supposed to be going to the hospital?” asked the confused Ning Ran.
“There’s no need. The news of Mr. Chen being sick was fake,” explained Jiang Zhe.
“But isn’t that the official statement released by your company? How is it faked? And why did you lie?” asked Ning Ran who was even more confused.
Jiang Zhe didn’t dare to explain because he hadn’t received Nan Chen’s approval so he just smiled.
Ning Ran was even more upset. That poker face really is a horrible human being. He lied about being sick to the world and got the share price to drop, resulting in billions of loss.
Did he feign his illness just to get my children to feel bad? Did he have something planned?
“Since he’s fine, then we’ll just take our leave now,” said Ning Ran as she turned to leave with her kids.
“Please wait,” said Jiang Zhe who didn’t dare to actually stop her.
Ning Ran paused and turned around, “What do you want?”
“I don’t want anything,” said Jiang Zhe with a smile, “It’s just that Mr. Chen said he had something important to discuss with you in person. Please do meet with Mr. Chen or I won’t be able to explain myself.”
“Mommy, we’re here anyway,” said Erbao who didn’t want to leave, “let’s go see Uncle Nan Chen.”
“He’s a liar! You still want to see him? He lied to you about being sick and got you worried all day. Why are you still voicing up for him?” said Ning Ran angrily.
“Uncle Nan Chen is not a liar!” said Erbao who insisted on defending Nan Chen.
“Ms. Ding, there’s a reason as to why Mr. Chen lied about being sick. He didn’t do so for any malicious reasons. Please give him a chance and talk to him,” said Jiang Zhe.
