My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 267

After dinner, Ning Ran did not want to wash the dishes, as she was simply too tired to move.

Thus, Dabao and Erbao offered to take up the important role of washing the dishes.

But Nan Chen was worried. How can the children at their young age, do such a tedious household chore?

Ning Ran, however, claimed that such a household chore was nothing to the two kids. They had prepared breakfast for her many times before, not to mention washing dishes.

In the end, Nan Chen and the two kids washed the dishes together. Their chemistry was rather lacking though, given that they broke two bowls and a plate during the process.

Naturally, the two kids pushed the blame to Nan Chen, claiming that the bowls broke due to his clumsiness.

Nan Chen did not bother to defend himself and shouldered the blame bravely.

After bathing, Ning Ran wanted to change into her pajamas. But considering that Nan Chen was in the house, she decided against it and eventually changed into a tracksuit instead.

Taking the opportunity when the two kids and Nan Chen were playing together, she ran into the study room alone to practice her script.

This was her habit. Unless something unexpected occurred, she would usually practice her script for the next day of filming.

Only through repeated practices could she perfect her role with a deeper understanding of her role’s feelings and her train of thoughts. In this way, she could then excel by immersing herself into her role during her filming on the next day. Thus while she was indeed talented in acting, it was, more importantly, due to the hard work she put in, to achieve the superb acting skills that she was known for today.

While she was lost in her script, someone knocked on the door. Nan Chen came into the study room after a half-hearted acknowledgement from Ning Ran.

“It’s getting late. Why don’t you help bathe the kids and put them to bed afterwards?”

Ning Ran was exhilarated. She had assumed Nan Chen would want to bring the kids back to the Nan family. It turns out I’m wrong.

“Okay. Though they can bathe themselves, I haven’t helped them bathe for a long time. I will go now.”

After bathing, the kids changed into their pajamas but they refused to sleep, wanting to play again.

After letting them play for some time, Ning Ran reminded them to sleep again, seeing that it was getting late. But Erbao still refused to go to bed.

Nonetheless, she went to bed obediently after a meaningful stare from Dabao.

With both kids in bed, only Nan Chen and Ning Ran were left in the living room.

An awkward silence ensued.

Nan Chen was sorting through his emails on his handphone. Finally, I have some time to myself to look at the emails.

Ning Ran sat beside him, browsing through her script while occasionally stealing glances at Nan Chen.

But Nan Chen’s attention was solely on his work, and at times, he would frown or stretch himself after being in the same position for too long.

Soon, it was 11p.m.

By now, Ning Ran was sleepy, and she wanted to go to bed. This fellow doesn’t seem to be moving along anytime soon! I can’t jolly well leave him be in my house.

“I don’t have coffee in my house. Shall I pour you some water?”

“Okay,” replied Nan Chen casually without lifting his head.

Thus, Ning Ran placed the glass of water on the table before him, but he did not take a single sip. In fact, he did not even shift his gaze away from his phone at all.

Ning Ran was really sleepy by now. Covering her mouth with her hand, she gave a suppressed yawn.

But Nan Chen still did not get her hint.

Finally, Ning Ran could not take it any longer and asked, “Are you going to take a long time to complete your work?”

Nan Chen raised his head, and after glancing at Ning Ran, he took a sip of water which had cooled down already.

“There are still some more matters for me to attend to.”

“Okay.”

Again, they fell into an awkward silence.

After 10 minutes, Ning Ran gave up, “I’m afraid that I need to sleep now. Take your time.”

“I’m about to be done.”

After a few minutes, Nan Chen finally put down his phone, seemingly done with his work.

Ning Ran heaved a sigh of relief. I can finally see him out now.

Ning Ran took in a deep breath to calm herself down. I am not worried about you! Your arrangement is too comprehensive for my liking!

This Cheng Xiangyun is a traitor! How can she give the keys to a house which is occupied by only two women, to a man, even if that man is Nan Chen!

Ning Ran blushed at his words. That’s so crude. So Master Chen, who is usually gentlemanly, can be so frivolous at times.
