“So what’s the result of your pondering?” Ning Ran asked.
“Not too bad,” replied Nan Chen.
“Well, looks like you are fine then,” Ning Ran returned.
“Now’s your turn to tell me what you were going to say to me,” Nan Chen told her.
“What I was going to tell you is, don’t ever drink before you swim again. It’s extremely dangerous,” replied Ning Ran.
“That is what you were going to tell me?” Nan Chen asked with a frown.
“That’s right. Don’t you think this is important? It is to me,” Ning Ran answered with a smile.
Nan Chen knew he had been tricked.
How dare this woman fools me! What a daredevil!
“How dare you make fun of me.”
Nan Chen moved toward her slowly and Ning Ran quickly escaped. “It’s getting late and I need to sleep. I’m still weak as I’ve just recovered so I need to have enough sleep.”
“Stop right there.”
Ning Ran did not listen to him and quickly ran off from the study room to her own bedroom. She then locked the door and went to bed.
As she lay in her bed and recalled what happened just now while her heart was still pounding fast.
Silly me! What is this for?
…
The next morning when Ning Ran woke up, Nan Chen had already left.
The lights in the study room were still on. Has he been thinking the whole night in the study room?
After washing up and preparing breakfast, she sent the children to school.
After which, she went for practice at the company. They had been practicing dance moves recently.
The strenuous training was coming to an end and by the time it ended, the movie would start filming.
As soon as she reached the company, she saw someone familiar at the door. It was Ouyang Qing.
Truth be told, they were not close at all. They had only officially met each other several times.
Ouyang Qing greeted her warmly, “Hi, Ding.”
Ning Ran nodded her head placidly and replied, “Hi, Ms. Ouyang.”
“You can just call me Qing, don’t have to be so courteous with me. Are you here for the training?”
“Yes, it’s been enhanced recently,” Ning Ran replied.
“Alright, I shall not bother you then. I’ll leave first, see you later.” Ouyang Qing waved at her.
“Bye.” Ning Ran waved back at her.
Wang Xiaoou walked toward her after she went into the company. “Perfect timing. Prepare yourself for a bit. We’re going to Y City to attend a promotional event.”
“Huh? Isn’t today scheduled for training? Why are we suddenly leaving? I’m totally unprepared.”
“This is a sudden notice from the company and it’s just an ordinary promotional event. You don’t need to prepare much,” replied Wang Xiaoou.
Ning Ran paused for a while. Wang Xiaoou isn’t the nosy type; why is she suddenly asking about this today?
Ning Ran was all the more suspicious. What is happening to Wang Xiaoou today? She’s speaking so unusually but what is she really implying?
Which meant there was no need for us to go out initially but this promotional event pop up because of Ouyang Qing?
