My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 238

Ning Ran was about to say ‘anything’ but was afraid that it would seem rude, so she said to Nan Chen affectionately, “You make the call!”

The phrase ‘You make the call’ sounded simple, but it was rich in meaning.

And it was even more meaningful to say it in this situation.

Nan Chen was a little caught off guard at Ning Ran’s sudden gentleness.

As the server was still waiting at the side for him to place his order, Nan Chen didn’t say much and simply ordered a few dishes.

This was Ning Ran’s purpose. Naturally, Nan Chen should know best what to order since he brought her here.

Ning Ran scrutinized her surroundings. The decoration was very simple in Japanese style, and the customers beside them were also speaking in Japanese.

“You like Japanese food?” Ning Ran asked Nan Chen.

Nan Chen didn’t speak, and Ning Ran felt a little awkward for failing to strike up a conversation with him.

“This isn’t Japanese food,” Nan Chen eventually said.

“Yeah.” Ning Ran nodded hastily. “It’s a late-night snack that derived from Japanese food, like the late-night eateries seen in movies.”

Nan Chen was silent at that.

Alright, it seems hes not planning to talk to me. Ning Ran zipped her mouth tactfully.

Nan Chen, who always bore a graceful posture, surveyed the surroundings as well. When he realized that almost all the female diners’ eyes were fixed on him, he hurriedly withdrew his gaze and sat upright.

This restaurant had been in business for some years, and it was his mother who had brought him and Nan Xing here for supper when they were young.

But then something happened, and he never came back.

This place seemed to have been renovated, but the style hadn’t changed much.

Nan Chen had always wanted to visit this place again but never had the courage to come.

With Ning Ran as a companion today, Nan Chen somehow had the courage and excuse to come over.

The food was served. There was fried ramen and a meatball dish Ning Ran couldn’t name.

As Ning Ran didn’t know which dish was hers, she let Nan Chen take it first.

Nan Chen took the meatball dish and handed Ning Ran the fried ramen.

The ramen tasted different from what she usually ate. She didn’t know if she was really starving or it was a psychological effect, but she found it to be very delicious.

After eating a meatball, Nan Chen didn’t move again.

Ning Ran thought it was a waste and wondered if he was going to throw the rest away after eating just one piece.

Thus, she kept staring at the meatballs, wanting to have a taste.

Nan Chen caught her wolfish gaze and wondered, Is this woman a glutton? Is a bowl of fried ramen not enough for her?

Supper at this hour is bound to make one chubbier, and she still eats so much?

But seeing her unwavering gaze on those meatballs, he felt a little troubled. At that, he raised his hand and signaled the boss for another bowl of meatballs.

“It’s okay. I’ll just have these. You only ate one and it’ll be a waste to throw these away.”

Ning Ran rose to her feet, reached for that bowl, and stuffed one in her mouth.

It was crisp and palatable.

The food Poker Face eats is indeed delicious. He ordered fried ramen for me, but he ordered something more delicious for himself, and he only ate a little. This is too much!

Nan Chen looked at Ning Ran swallowing one meatball in a mouthful, and one word came to his mind—vulgar.

“The supper you eat is extraordinary, Sir Chen. I’ve never forgotten about the sake that we drank the last time. It was really good!”

At that, Nan Chen was reminded of her drunken appearance.

He motioned to the boss again for two bottles of sake.

He didn’t know why, but he just wanted to fulfil this woman’s wish.

Ning Ran had just been speaking casually, and she didn’t expect him to actually order it.

“I’m gonna have to take a rain check on that drink. I’ve got work tomorrow, and it’s too late,” Ning Ran declined with a wave of her hands.

Nan Chen had already poured her a glass as he said, “Don’t you have something to tell me? How are you going to tell me the truth if you don’t drink?”

Ning Ran looked stunned. Drinking doesnt mean Ill tell the truth after!

So hes trying to get me drunk just so I will spill the beans after drinking?

The last time I was drunk, I said many things to him that shouldnt be said. Is he addicted to listening to me or something?
