My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 239

Drunkenness always happened when one was least aware of it.

Ning Ran didn’t know from which glass onwards that she started feeling light in the head.

That feeling of light-headedness felt nice. It was exhilarating, relaxing, and unrestrained.

She was talking more and more loudly, and laughing more and more presumptuously.

Although Nan Chen was a little drunk, he remained upright in his seat as he looked at the increasingly wanton woman before him.

Was this the result he wanted? Not knowing the answer, he gulped down another glass of sake.

Why did I come here? Why did I eat with her? And why did I drink?

He didn’t drink any alcohol for work during the important social event tonight, but he was drinking white wine now with the woman he hated so much.

“You’re actually a nice person, Sir Chen,” Ning Ran said abruptly with a smile.

Nan Chen remained silent.

“You’re responsible. When we were in the jungle, you didn’t eat and had left the food for me and the children… I always remember it. In fact, my life is not as important as yours. I’m just a blade of grass. If I’m gone, I bet no one will remember me after a few days. But you’re different. You’re responsible for the family business. If anything happens to you, the entire Flower City or even the entire economy of China will be affected. So, I think it’s amazing that you’re willing to save food for us.” Ning Ran rambled on and on about many things.

Nan Chen’s heart softened a little.

How are you a blade of grass? How are you as cheap as you say you are? How could you be forgotten in two days if you’re gone?

Where do I find this one and only orange blossom fragrance if you’re gone?

“But you also have a bad side,” Ning Ran spoke in a thick voice, not caring if Nan Chen answered or not.

Nan Chen cocked an eyebrow and looked at Ning Ran.

“You’re too proud. Although you have the power, there’s no need to be arrogant. The world is diverse. Everyone has his own way of life, his own personality—” Ning Ran halted and burped.

Nan Chen knitted his brows tightly together. Is this woman going to throw up again?

He couldn’t let her throw up again this time. She had made a scene the last time she was drunk, and it was too much trouble.

Nan Chen stood up and took away that bottle of wine in front of her, but he didn’t say a word.

Ning Ran grinned, “Are you afraid that I’ll trouble you when I’m drunk? Hahaha.”

Nan Chen paid no heed to her words.

“Just get right to the topic.”

Ning Ran tried hard to concentrate, but it was a little too difficult.

The effect of the alcohol made her feel dizzy, and she began to see a split image of Poker Face in front of her.

However, she was still conscious, and she knew what she had to say.

The only downside was that she really wanted to talk. She had many pent-up emotions in her heart, and she couldn’t help but wanting to talk.

Nan Chen looked at Ning Ran, indicating her to continue.

“How about I drink a little more? Otherwise, I can’t talk about some things.”

Ning Ran was about to get another bottle of wine when Nan Chen stretched his hand to stop her. He couldn’t let her drink anymore, as it would be too taxing to deal with her drunken behavior.

Ning Ran could only give up. Tch, how controlling. It’s not like I’m a drunkard or something.

“Where did I stop just now?” Ning Ran looked at Nan Chen with blurry eyes.

Nan Chen didn’t reply. He wasn’t obliged to remind this woman that she had been raving about him.

“Ah, I remember now. We were talking about what happened in the jungle. Food supplies were limited. Instead of eating it yourself, you saved them for me and the children…”

Nan Chen froze. Is she going to repeat that again?

Fine, say what you want. You can even say it a hundred times.

Thereupon, Ning Ran repeated what she had just said, but the main idea that Nan Chen was responsible remained unchanged.

Nan Chen felt that it was better to be praised than to be taunted by her.

“Let’s go. It’s not getting any earlier.” Ning Ran stood up.

Nan Chen sat unspeaking. Didn’t your mother pass away a long time ago, and it was your fault that she died? Do you think I wouldn’t know that?
