My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 1046

Chapter 1046 Her Heart Raced Uncontrollably

When Ning Ran woke up in the car at eleven o'clock at night at Flower City International Airport, she was startled for a moment.

She was there to pick Nan Chen up, but she had too much work and was dead tired that day that she unknowingly fell asleep while waiting.

Fortunately, the plane had just landed, so the man was probably not out yet.

Initially, such a thing was usually done by the employees. However, she wanted to pick him up in person that day and report the entire matter to him right away.

Most importantly, Ning Ran found that she missed him quite a bit.

When Nan Chen was present, he was the one who shouldered everything.

But when Nan Zhengde suddenly fell gravely ill this time, both Nan Chen and Nan Xing happened to be away.

Nan Shize, on the other hand, did not bother about things. Consequently, Ning Ran felt a tremendous weight on her shoulders.

All of a sudden, she realized how blessed she actually was to have Nan Chen by her side.

Casting her mind back, she had no recollection of ever going to the airport to pick the man up personally. Thus, she felt that it was time for her to do so.

Subsequently, Ning Ran alighted from the car and hurriedly took the escalator out of the parking lot. Then, she stood at the arrival hall to wait for him.

She had just woken up, so she was still a touch dazed.

It was only when she abruptly noticed many people snapping photos of her with their phones that she realized she was not wearing a mask and sunglasses.

In other words, she had been recognized by the public.

She hardly wore any makeup and was almost barefaced.

On top of that, her hair was a bit messy after she had slept, and her clothes were also plain.

Her current image was definitely not photogenic, for no female celebrity was ever photographed in such a sloppy state.

Generally, celebrities were in disguise when photographed at the airport, wearing a mask and a cap.

Otherwise, they would usually have exquisite makeup on in preparation for a photo session that had long since been arranged.

A case like hers where the celebrity did not bother disguising herself and was photographed standing at the airport was incredibly rare.

By then, it was already too late for her to dodge, much less make a break for it.

Left with no other recourse, she could only feign calmness. Putting on an awkward smile, she waved at those snapping photos of her in greeting.

“I'm not prepared today, so please make sure I look beautiful in the photos and use filters as much as possible. Thank you!” she quipped jokingly.

Her approachability won the favor of the people.

“Why are you here at this hour, Ran? You didn't bring any luggage with you, so are you here to pick someone up from the airport?” someone asked.

“Yes. Not only did I not bring any luggage, but I didn't even wear a mask. Please make sure I look good in the photos, everyone. Otherwise, I won't be able to remain in the entertainment industry anymore,” Ning Ran implored smilingly.

“No, you're still stunningly beautiful without makeup. Your looks are absolutely stellar, so don't worry!”

Ning Ran chuckled wryly. “Thank you for the compliment. But still, I hope you'll take nice photos of me. Otherwise, my talent agent will kill me.”

“You mean Wang Xiaoou?” Surprisingly, there were even long-time fans there who knew of Wang Xiaoou.

“Yes, exactly. She's exceedingly fierce. If she were to learn that I was photographed in my current state, she would be gripped by the urge to kill me. But she wouldn't dare do so to me, so she could only do it to herself. She's truly pitiful. If you take nice photos of me, you'll save her life. Saving a life can earn you a lifetime of good luck. Please let her off the hook and allow her to live for a few more years, kind ladies and gentlemen!”

Ning Ran's impromptu gag had bursts of laughter drift into the air.

Everyone there did not expect her to be so witty that she could perform a stand-up comedy at the airport. Moreover, it was entirely improvised without a script.

Nonetheless, they pitied Wang Xiaoou since she innocently became the butt of the joke.

Beyond the crowd stood a handsome man dressed in a black shirt and black pants. With his face devoid of expression, he silently watched Ning Ran's live performance.

Is she here to pick me up or perform a stand-up comedy? She's so enthusiastic that she didn't even notice me after I've stood here for ages?

At first, Ning Ran truly did not see him because too many people surrounded her, and they blocked her line of sight.

By the time she caught sight of Nan Chen, however, she started wavering.

Should I go up to him? Considering the number of people surrounding me now, he would also be photographed if I were to do so. Poker Face has never liked having his photo taken as though he was an exhibit in the zoo. What if he were to get mad?

For that reason, her first reaction after spotting the man was to pretend that she had not seen him.

He could leave if he did not want to be photographed, and she would then figure out a way to get away from her fans.

Unfortunately, Nan Chen did not grasp her meaning. This time, a tacit understanding was lacking between them.

Having been on the plane for more than ten hours, Nan Chen was bone-tired. All he wanted was to go home as soon as possible.

To his puzzlement, he had noticed Ning Ran sweeping her gaze over him a few times, yet there was no reaction on her part.

Don't tell me she really came for the express purpose of performing a stand-up comedy and picking me up takes second fiddle?

Fuming inwardly, he strode forward, parting the crowd to march right up to her.

At his height, he was very much conspicuous among the group of fans.

As for his looks, they were naturally striking.

Therefore, he stood out from the crowd. No one could compare to him, for he was on a different level altogether.

“Wow, it turns out that she's here to pick a handsome guy up!”

“Isn't thot Non Chen? He's for more hondsome in reol life thon on TV!”

“How toll, hondsome, ond imposing!”
