My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 567

Chapter 567 Fortune Teller

When they got out of the doctor’s office, Nan Chen asked Ning Ran, “Do we have to tell Dabao about this?”

“Since Erbao is fine now, we should just tell him. He’s a smart boy. If he doesn’t get to see Erbao today, he’s going to start speculating. By then, it’ll be even harder to lie to him. We might as well tell him now so he wouldn’t get too worried about his sister’s whereabouts,” Ning Ran answered.

“Okay. I’ll send someone to fetch him.”

Meanwhile, Dabao had already taken his breakfast. However, he had felt troubled ever since the night before. Not only did he wake up a few times throughout the night, but he’d also been having trouble breathing.

Generally, a kid of his age would only have trouble waking up, instead of the other way around. It was rather peculiar for him to have trouble sleeping.

Somehow, Dabao could sense something bad had happened to Erbao. What is it? What happened to her? Yesterday, Uncle Xing just came and told me Daddy and Mommy brought Erbao out. That sounds so suspicious because that was very unlikely.

With doubts in his mind, he went to his uncle’s room and pounded on his door.

Nan Xing didn’t sleep well as well throughout the night because he couldn’t get his mind off what happened to Erbao. By the time he fell asleep, it was almost dawn.

He was extremely tired when Dabao woke him up.

“What is it, Dabao? What do you want so early in the morning?” Nan Xing was drowsy-eyed when he opened the door.

“What happened to Erbao?” his nephew asked directly.

“What do you mean what happened?” Nan Xing was stumped.

“Something must’ve happened to Erbao. You’re hiding something from me.” Dabao entered the room and stared at him.

“Nothing happened. Your parents brought her out, that’s all. They’ll be back in a couple of days.” Nan Xing felt guilty. He knew how smart Dabao was, so he had always been wary of him.

“You’re lying. You’re an adult. How could you lie? If kids aren’t supposed to lie, shouldn’t the adults act as examples?”

Nan Xing was on the verge of spilling everything out. “I’m not…”

“You’re obviously lying! Daddy and Mommy wouldn’t bring Erbao out on their own! Even if they did, Mommy and Erbao would definitely call me. However, all their phones are out of reach. Something must’ve happened! If you don’t tell me the truth now, I’ll tell Great-grandpa about it! Since you’re bullying me, I’ll get him to deal with you. He’ll surely be able to teach you a lesson!” Dabao threatened him.

That was what Nan Xing was most afraid of. Chen said no matter what, Grandpa must never find out about what happened to Erbao. We can’t let those two old ones get startled. Now Dabao is threatening to tell them. What should I do?

“I trust you because you’re my uncle. However, you’re acting out of line. Don’t blame me if I have to tell Great-grandpa about this!” Dabao threatened again, and he was about to leave.

Nan Xing was dumbfounded. Out of line?

“Wait!” He quickly grabbed his nephew.

“Are you going to tell me the truth? If you’re not, then you should just shut it!” Dabao was extremely adamant.

“Just wait, will you? I’ll call and ask if they’re still there.” Since Nan Xing couldn’t decide on his own, he decided to call Nan Chen and ask for advice. I need his help. I don’t know how to handle Dabao.

Nan Chen’s phone was out of reach at that moment. Is his phone dead? Perhaps I should call Qiao Zhan and get him to inform Chen.

When he got on the phone with Qiao Zhan, the man told him he was already on his way to Commoner Residence to fetch Dabao to the hospital.

Hearing that, Nan Xing heaved a sigh of relief. He should’ve told me earlier so that I could just tell Dabao. That way, I wouldn’t get labeled as old and acting out of line.

“Qiao Zhan is already on his way here to bring you to go see Erbao,” Nan Xing said.

“What happened to Erbao?” Dabao’s eyes reddened instantly.

Seeing that, Nan Xing’s heart ached. He quickly hugged Dabao and uttered, “Don’t worry, okay? Erbao is fine now. She had food poisoning yesterday and was brought to the hospital. She’s fine now.”

“Why did no one tell me? I was feeling terrible all night long! Erbao and I, we could sense each other, you know?”

“Don’t cry, okay? My hands were tied. Your daddy was worried about you. That’s why he kept you in the dark in the meantime. He’d even gotten me to check on you. I didn’t want to lie to you either. Actually, we’re more concerned about your great-grandparents finding out about it. As you know, they aren’t young anymore. What are we supposed to do if they fall sick when they’re startled?” Nan Xing explained patiently.

Dabao was a sensible kid. Hearing that, he immediately stopped complaining. “Did Erbao really only suffer from food poisoning? Is it not dangerous?”

“She’s fine, really. You’ll get to see her in a while, okay? Why would I lie to you?”

“Okay. I’ll go get changed, then. Once Mr. Qiao gets here, I can leave right away.” Dabao left the room hurriedly but returned after taking a few steps.

“What if Great-grandpa asks me something? What am I supposed to tell him?” Dabao asked.

“Tell him your parents are bringing you to the park.”

“Okay.” With that, Dabao went to his room to get changed.
