My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 426

At that moment, Ning Ran’s phone rang.

When she glanced at her phone, she discovered that the number wasn’t one of her contacts. It looked unfamiliar too.

“Hello? Who is this?”

“Mimi, I’m Ouyang Qi! Where are you? I made a reservation at a restaurant. I would like to treat you to a meal.”

Ning Ran was taken aback. Why is it him again?

Didn’t he disappear a few days ago?

“I’m not in Flower City right now. Let’s have a meal next time,” replied Ning Ran casually.

“You’re lying to me again. I know that you’re back,” replied Ouyang Qi with a laugh.

“How did you know?”

“The people who were with you had all returned to the office. How is it possible that you’re still not back at Flower City? Where are you? I’ll pick you up.”

“Where did you get all this information from?” Ning Ran was feeling anxious now.

“You don’t need to know about that. I’m rich. With money, I can buy any information I want. Where are you? I’ll pick you up now. Send your location to me.”

“There’s no need for that. I’m ending the call now.” Ning Ran hung up directly.

“Who called you?” asked Nan Chen.

“Do I have to report this to you as well, boss?” asked Ning Ran.

“Yes.” Nan Chen was straightforward with his words too.

“Well, I’m not telling.”

“But you must.”

“Why should I? Even if you’re my boss, I have my right to my own privacy too.”

“You’re in Flower City, so why did you deny it?”

“I told you, it’s my private matters…”

Before Ning Ran could finish her sentence, her phone rang. It was from Ouyang Qi again.

Damn it! If Nan Chen finds out, it’ll be hard for me to explain myself!

“Hello. Please stop calling me. I don’t need any insurance! If you harass me again, I’m going to call the police.” Ning Ran hung up immediately after speaking.

“It’s an insurance promoter.” Ning Ran mumbled to herself, although her words seemed to be meant for Nan Chen.

“Which insurance company is it?” asked Nan Chen.

“I didn’t hear it clearly.”

“What kind of insurance are they selling?”

“I didn’t ask.”

“What if you really need it?” Nan Chen pressed on.

“I don’t.”

“If the call is really from an insurance company, you wouldn’t have said that you’re not in Flower City. Even if the company called you, they would not ask you out for a meeting. In that case, they won’t need to know where you are, and you don’t have to deny that you’re in Flower City either. Hence, someone is trying to ask you out. However, as you are reluctant to, you claimed that you’re not in town.”

After a slight pause, he continued, “Wait, that’s not right. Perhaps the reason you claim that you’re not in Flower City is that you’re with me right now, so it’s not convenient for you. In that case, is the person who called you a male?”

It was as if Nan Chen had been possessed by Sherlock Holmes as he carried out his analysis.

However, when Ning Ran heard that all of his deductions were right, she started to panic.

On some occasions, it was a happy thing to be friends with intelligent people. They could understand what you meant without any excessive explanation.

However, it was a curse sometimes as they could see right through you, such that you could not hide anything from them.

Evidently, Nan Chen was an extremely intelligent person. Although he was not bald like the other geniuses, he was really top-notch.

Ning Ran was rendered speechless as Nan Chen’s analysis was spot on. For a moment, she felt helpless to do anything.

“Ouyang Qi called me. He asked me out for a meal.” Ning Ran decided to tell the truth.

According to her understanding of Nan Chen, since he was already suspecting her, he would definitely get to the bottom of it.

If Nan Chen wanted to investigate who called her, he probably had more than ten methods to do so.

The easiest method was to force her to give him her phone and call the number.

Another method was to pull some strings and check her phone records.

Ning Ran could only think of two ways, but there were probably countless others which she had not thought of yet.

Hence, Ning Ran concluded that it would be less troublesome to come clean with Nan Chen instead of him investigating it.

As Nan Chen did not expect Ning Ran to actually say the truth, he was momentarily stunned.
