My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 287

Before Tang Jing could say another word, Nan Chen had already walked away in large strides.

As the chauffeur ignited the car engine again, he cast a side glance over at Tang Jing. When he saw her smitten expression, he couldn’t help but feel amused.

That was, as a matter of fact, a common occurrence for him. Countless of attractive women had tried to seduce his boss, but no one had ever succeeded.

Not even one.

“Ma’am, may I have your address please?” The chauffeur inquired.

There was no reply from Tang Jing.

She was still caught up in her imagination, and did not hear the driver’s question.

“Ma’am?” The chauffeur raised his voice and asked again.

“Oh, what?” Tang Jing finally snapped out of her trance.

“Please tell me your address so I can send you back.”

“Oh, sure. My address is… “

After Tang Jing recited her address, the chauffeur nodded, an indication that he knew where her place was.

Apart from being a competent driver, the Nan family’s chauffeur was also required to be an all-rounder.

The most basic requirement was to be multilingual, as the chauffeur was often required to drive foreign clients or guests around.

Next, he had to know every nook and cranny in Flower City by heart. He had to be even more familiar with the roads than a cab driver and had to continuously update himself with any new roads or changes in road structures.

The chauffeur would be fired immediately if he had to rely on GPS to direct him to his boss’s destination.

“You actually know where it is?” Tang Jing was surprised at the man’s intimate knowledge of the streets.

“Of course. I know the location of all the streets, including every residential estate, in the city. The Nan family’s chauffeurs are required to update ourselves with the latest maps once a week, in order to ensure that we do not send the boss to the wrong place,” the chauffeur chuckled as he replied.

“Wow, that’s really impressive.” Tang Jing gave the chauffeur a thumbs up.

The man laughed and said, “There are a lot of people who want this job as Young Master Chen’s driver. Not everyone who knows how to drive is qualified to take up this position, though. I’m the chosen one among thousands of applicants. Of course, I have to put in more effort to prove my worth, as I wouldn’t want to risk losing this privilege.”

It was apparent from the chauffeur’s tone that he was honored to drive for Nan Chen, and at the same time, proud of himself for beating his competitors to be offered the job.

“But your boss seems to be a man of few words. Does it pressurize you to be in the same car as him?” Tang Jing asked.

“I wasn’t really used to the silence at first, but I’ve grown accustomed to it. Young Master Nan Chen is a busy man. He manages a big corporation and has a lot of important matters to tend to every day. I doubt he would have any extra energy for small talk,” the driver said.

Tang Jing nodded in agreement.

“How’s the relationship like between your boss and your lady boss?” Tang Jing asked again.

“Lady boss?” The driver did not understand who the woman was referring to.

“Oh, I mean Ding Mi, the woman your boss is living with.”

“Oh, you mean Ms. Ding.” The driver did not continue beyond this point.

“Yeah, that’s her. Does she have a close relationship with your boss?”

The chauffeur kept quiet.

“Why are you not replying anymore?” Tang Jing asked as she was not able to comprehend the man’s abrupt quietness.

“Chauffeurs are not allowed to comment on, nor divulge the boss’s private matters. It is basic ethics drivers should have,” he replied.

“Never mind then. You guys seem to have pretty strict rules.”

Tang Jing was unable to hide her dejection. She had supposed she would be able to get some information from the driver, but things did not go as planned.

In fact, she herself wasn’t exactly sure what she wanted. To her, the Nan family was like a powerful magnet, full of a mysterious force which kept attracting her in.

The woman was determined to do everything she could to get close to that magnetic field, or even, within it.

She had not yet conceived a concrete idea of what she wanted to achieve, though.

The first step for Tang Jing was to shorten the gap between her and the Nan family, as this was no doubt, the best opportunity presented to her in her life so far.

Ning Ran slept all the way till morning.

She had already fully recovered and felt rejuvenated.

However, she did not see Nan Chen lying next to her, like the previous two nights. Did he stay out the entire night?

He had left with Tang Jing last night. He wouldnt have taken her to a hotel right?

Ning Ran started to panic. He wouldnt have abducted the kids right?

No, if that was Nan Chens plan, he wouldnt have needed to carry it out in such a secretive manner. He had most likely just taken them out.

But where could they have gone to so early in the morning?
