My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 483

It was past midnight when the video conference between Nan Chen and the team in the Middle East was over.

“Mr. Chen, something’s up again.” Jiang Zhe was running toward Nan Chen as he said that.

“Get straight to the point,” Nan Chen said coldly.

“Ms. Ding has been taken away by the police.”

Nan Chen stopped in his tracks abruptly. “For what?”

“The police received a drug abuse report so they’ve set up roadblocks for inspection and a banned substance — MDMA was found in Ms. Ding’s purse.”

“MDMA?”

“More commonly known as Ecstasy or Molly, it’s a kind of recreational drug.”

“Let’s go to the police station.”

“Yes, Sir,” Jiang Zhe replied.

In the elevator, Jiang Zhe’s phone was ringing again.

“It’s from Qiao Zhan,” Jiang Zhe said.

Nan Chen took the call.

“Haven’t I told you to arrange for protection? What have you been doing?” Nan Chen’s tone was chilled to the bone.

“I’m sorry. I’ve done that but it was a sudden incident and we…”

“Get someone to bail her out right away.” Nan Chen cut him off curtly.

“I’m already on it…”

Nan Chen hung up the call.

Jiang Zhe could sense that Nan Chen was enraged so he just kept quiet.

“Send me the guest list for the dinner event tonight,” Nan Chen told Jiang Zhe.

“I’ve asked around and almost everyone from all the departments of the production team was present…”

“I know there were many of them but a name list could at least be sorted out, right?” Nan Chen asked.

“I’ll get someone to send it soon.”

As soon as Jiang Zhe finished his sentence, his received another call from Qiao Zhan.

“Hello?” Picking up the call, Jiang Zhe also turned the speaker mode on.

“Please put Sir Chen on.”

“Just speak!” Nan Chen uttered.

“Sir Chen, we were halfway through bailing Young Mistress out but it was overridden suddenly. The reason they gave was Young Mistress’ identity as a public figure could cause a rather negative impact to the public so she has to be remanded.”

“Where are your connections and ties? Why can’t you even handle such a minor case?” Nan Chen was irritated.

Even though Qiao Zhan was a captain of the Nan family’s security team, he had vast influence. The few big shots in Flower City’s police force were all his friends.

That was why Nan Chen was of the opinion that Qiao Zhan could solve the problem speedily on his own but to his surprise, even he was hampered.

“I would take care of this; I’m only giving Sir Chen an update.”

“Report to me only after you’ve cleared it up.”

“Yes, Sir Chen.”

Lounging in his seat, Nan Chen shut his eyes slowly.

They arrived at the police station soon after. However, after parking, Nan Chen did not get out of the car.

“Please rest here for a moment while I go take a look. It’s a trifle and it’s best that Sir doesn’t get involved in this and becomes the subject of gossip,” said Jiang Zhe.

Nan Chen did not answer.

He was of the same mind as Jiang Zhe. His appearance at the police station might be utilized by those with ill intentions to create unnecessary scandals to tarnish the reputation of Nanshi Corporation.

The usual approach in handling such an incident was for Nan Chen to stay away from Ning Ran because she had been involved in a drug abuse case.

Regardless of the truth, Ning Ran was in the thick of the storm and it was risky to be associated with her now.

At that point in time, most artists would have disengaged themselves from Ning Ran, not to mention a big wheel like Nan Chen.

After a while, Nan Chen took a glance at his watch. Ten minutes had passed.

He couldn’t wait anymore so he left the car and strode toward the police station.

Right! This should be Big Qiao’s job. Why am I involving myself in it for nothing?
