My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 140

Ning Ran realized that something was amiss after noticing Nan Chen’s expression and explained, “That was not what I meant, you’re definitely not my son.”

This explanation seemed to have made things more awkward.

Nan Chen eyes were blazing with anger.

“What I’m trying to say is, we are poor. We will find ways to treat minor health problems, instead of visiting the hospital. Hospitals need us to go through all sorts of screening and test before administering the actual treatment, how can we afford that?” Ning Ran explained her logic. I just have to become a ‘doctor’ to figure things out myself. Believe me; I might be more skillful than some other doctors in big hospitals!” She said while smiling at Nan Chen.

Nan Chen’s anger was suddenly overcome by an inexplicable feeling, when he realized that many people actually did not go to the hospital when they were sick.

And they chose not to go, not because it was a nuisance, but rather because they had no money.

It must have been hard on her. Nan Chen thought.

The light from the streetlamp in the tiny neighborhood shone on Ning Ran’s face. She looked as beautiful as a flower that was waiting to bloom in the middle of the night.

“You don’t believe me?” Ning Ran asked Nan Chen.

“I do.” Nan Chen for once answered truthfully.

‘I’m not trying to win your sympathy. I don’t think there’s any problem with it. My children still grew up healthily and happily.” Ning Ran said with pride.

“It would be even better if they enter the Nan family.” Nan Chen said.

Ning Ran instantly became alert, “You’re not here to snatch my kids away, aren’t you?”

“No I’m not.” Nan Chen said.

“Good. Because I’ll kill you if you do.” Ning Ran rubbed her fists and was ready to throw a punch.

“If I’m willing to marry you, would you say yes?” Nan Chen asked.

“I’ve told you before, I will not marry you.” Ning Ran said.

Nan Chen felt strange. Why wouldn’t she say yes when she had always wished to use her children to help her rise through the ranks?

Had she really told Nan Xing she was not willing to marry into the Nan family?

“Why?” Nan Chen was curious.

“What’s wrong with you today? Haven’t I told you?” Ning Ran was getting impatient.

“Since I’m here today, I want to have a proper discussion with you.” Nan Chen tried to copy how Nan Xing spoke, and forced himself to speak proudly and frivolously.

It was clearly a failure, but he did seem more relaxed.

“Speak.” Ning Ran switched to a more comfortable position to sit in.

“Our marriage.”

“I’m not going to marry, and you know the reason why. I don’t like you.”

“But with me, you can have a better life. The kids can have a better education and environment to grow up in. They will become outstanding individuals.”

“Am I married to you now?” Ning Ran straightened herself up and asked.

Nan Chen was not sure why she had thrown the question at him, but he answered truthfully. “Nope.”

“Are my kids outstanding?” Ning Ran asked again.

Nan Chen was speechless, and did not know how to answer.

The two children were outstanding, for sure. No one else would be worthy of this description.

“They’re outstanding because they are gifted, but without a proper environment to further develop their potentials, they will eventually become ordinary.” Nan Chen said.

“Many of us in this world are ordinary folks. I just want them to live healthily, peacefully and happily. I don’t really mind if they become ordinary one day.”

Nan Chen was a little angry. This woman and her lowly mindset! It’s fine if she wishes to be ordinary, but why would she want her children to go down the same path as well?

What puzzled him the most was that she still refused to marry into the Nan family.

Nan Chen always had the impression that Ning Ran would want to get into the Nan family, by hook or by crook. Now that she rejected the offer, he became more confused.

Is she trying to put on airs and act like she doesn’t care? She might not have said so, but deep in her heart, it could be her lifelong dream.

“Then what is your ideal type?” Nan Che changed the subject.

“What a meaningless subject. There’s no ‘standard’ when it comes to liking someone. It’s not like buying products, when you have sizes and measurements for reference.” She said. “You will know what you like about your other half when you fall in love. If you never had this feeling, how would you know what you like?” Ning Ran responded with another question.
