My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 325

“Why would I want to be here when I can spend the entire day at home?” Ning Ran asked rhetorically.

“We can drop by and pick up the kids together in the afternoon,” Nan Chen added.

“Is that what you have been up to all along? You should have told me earlier. Otherwise, I’m going to misperceive that you’re missing me,” Ning Ran blurted out the thing she had in mind.

Initially, it was an unintended joke, but the moment Ning Ran finished her sentence, she recalled that she was talking to Nan Chen.

She could fool around with others, but she should never behave in such a manner when she was around the man.

Similarly, Nan Chen was taken aback by Ning Ran’s unintended joke. He felt as though she had tried to hit on him.

As soon as Ning Ran caught a glimpse of Nan Chen’s gaze, she explained herself, “I-I didn’t mean it! I-It’s a joke!”

“Do you always pull others’ legs in a similar method?” Nan Chen probed callously.

“No! Who do you think I am? I’m trying to pull your leg because we’re close acquaintances!”

“Are you sure we’re closely acquainted with one another?”

Do I get to consider him a close acquaintance of mine?

She turned the idea in her mind and remarked, “I guess we’re halfway there?”

Frowning, Nan Chen asked, “What do you mean we’re halfway there? Are we heading somewhere?”

In return, Ning Ran chuckled, “I have no idea you’re such a funny guy! Is that an intended pun?”

As soon as she regained composure, she noticed she had gone overboard and embarrassed herself in front of him again.

Nan Chen couldn’t comprehend the reason Ning Ran laughed out loud in front of him.

Has she lost her mind? What’s so funny about an ordinary question?

“Please neglect my words and tend to the things you have on your plate. I’ll stay around until it’s time to pick them up.” Ning Ran waved at Nan Chen and beckoned him to leave her alone.

He felt irritated because she seemed to be delivering a command instead.

Nonetheless, he decided to pay no heed to her since she had always behaved as such.

Nan Chen returned to his table and started sorting out the things he had on his plate.

Meanwhile, Ning Ran started exploring the spacious office of Nan Chen. She sized up every single item and ran her fingers across the things she could get her hands on.

When she had had enough of exploring his office, she would head over to the window and enjoy the bustling scene of the city.

After a short while, Ning Ran was alone in Nan Chen’s office again as he had headed out once more because he had to attend another conference with the team from another region.

She walked towards Nan Chen’s workstation and took a seat.

Nanshi Corporation was a corporation capable of influencing other regions’ economies. Countless people desired to take over his position as the person in charge.

Hence, Ning Ran decided to take a seat on the most influential man’s chair. She wasn’t interested in the fame and wealth associated with the position. In short, she was merely there to check if Nan Chen’s seat was comfortable.

Indeed, it felt great as he had purchased himself an ergonomic chair.

It was the perfect height for Nan Chen since he had a pair of slender legs, but Ning Ran was relatively short as compared to him. Therefore, she couldn’t reach the ground with her feet.

She dared not adjust the chair to accommodate her height; she was afraid Nan Chen would notice she had been on his chair.

Suddenly, she heard the sound of a phone buzzing.

Nan Chen received a call through his personal phone. The particular phone of his had only been made known to a few of his close acquaintances.

In other words, the person on the other end of the call was an important figure. There must be some sort of emergency that required Nan Chen’s attention.

Ning Ran picked up the phone and noticed it was a call from Nan Chen’s mother.

Nan Chen’s mother?

Could it be an emergency? Why is Nan Chen’s mother trying to get in touch with him desperately?

What do you mean what sort of friend? How many types of friends are there? We’re like friends.

Actually, we’re not really ordinary friends because we’re more than friends.

However, we’re not exactly in a relationship either. What should I tell her?
