My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 441

“Are you paying for someone’s services, or is someone paying for yours?”

At that point, Nan Chen’s expression began to darken. Regardless of whichever situation it was, he couldn’t accept either.

“Neither, I just said – it was just a slip of tongue!” Ning Ran became anxious.

“But how did you know about such things?” Nan Chen demanded as he glared at Ning Ran.

“People talk about it.”

“Who did you hear it from?” Nan Chen persisted in his questions.

“I need some time to recall as I can’t remember off-hand. It’s just something I overheard when people were talking, so I don’t recall who said what.”

“Then think harder! Who was it that told you, or did you experience it yourself?” Nan Chen wasn’t giving up.

“Ugh, come on! I was only joking. You don’t have to take it THAT seriously. You really have no sense of humor at all.” Ning Ran began to feel frustrated.

By then, she was done drying Nan Chen and had already helped him into his pajamas.

“If you were to pay for my services, how much would you offer?” Nan Chen suddenly asked.

Ning Ran was stunned. What kind of question is that?

“I already said I was just kidding,” Ning Ran repeated helplessly.

“Answer me. How much will you offer?” Nan Chen asked again.

“I’m sorry. I can’t afford you… wait, that didn’t come out right. I meant I wouldn’t offer you anything.” Ning Ran blushed instantly.

Is he flirting with me?

Or is he setting a trap?

“You’re already blushing, and yet you claim that you won’t offer me anything?” Nan Chen fixated his gaze on her.

Ning Ran felt her knees buckling and had the urge to flee.

“Can we stop talking about this? It was just a thought, so don’t take it seriously,” Ning Ran’s tone sounded as she was pleading for mercy.

“Name your price, and I’ll let you pay for me,” Nan Chen’s eyes were filled with mischief.

He found this topic to be extremely intriguing, so he wasn’t going to give it up that easily.

“I don’t want to. I really don’t, so stop harping on this topic. Dabao is worried about you, so I promised him to get you to call him. Since he has been waiting for you, don’t let him wait too long.”

Finally, those words achieved their intended effect as Nan Chen stopped harping about paying for “special” services.

Evidently, Dabao was still waiting. When he saw his Daddy appear on his phone screen, he let out a rare smile.

As he had inherited Nan Chen’s cool demeanor, Dabao seldom smiled during normal times.

For a person who rarely smiled to smile, it would bring one a sense of untold joy.

And since Dabao was already a handsome child. When he smiled, he had Ning Ran mesmerized. “Wow, Dabao is smiling!”

“Daddy, are you alright?” Dabao’s eyes were filled with concern.

“I’m fine. Is Erbao asleep?”

“Yes, she was too tired, so she went to bed first.”

“You should also turn in as it’s already late. You know, kids get taller if they sleep on time,” Nan Chen persuaded.

“I want to talk to you a while more before I go to bed. Daddy, are you and Mommy still fighting?” Dabao asked.

“No we aren’t. Why would we fight?”

“Does that mean you like Mommy now?” Dabao asked again.

It was a tough question to answer, mainly because Ning Ran was sitting right beside him.

“We’re doing fine. You should sleep now since you still have school tomorrow.”

“Alright. We will be staying in Great-Grandpa’s house for a while. So both of you, please take care of each other,” Dabao instructed.

“We’ll see. Once I’m done with my work, I will pick you and Erbao up.”

“Alright, that’s all then. Good night, Daddy. Good night, Mommy.”

Waving his little hands, Dabao happily ended the call.

Ning Ran, too, began to yawn. “I’m going to sleep. Is there anything else?”

Ning Ran was losing it. Is this what people consider emotional blackmail? When is this going to end?

This must be part of his plot! Ning Ran thought to herself.

No, wait. He is just doing this outright because he knows I dont have a choice other than to obey him.

In fact, he is taking advantage of me brazenly.

Fine, whats the big deal about sleeping together. Its not like it hasnt happened before. Whats there to be afraid of?
