My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 620

Chapter 620 Too Good To Be True

Later, Qiao Zhan’s call reached Commoner Residence. Qiao Zhan informed Nan Xing of the situation at Livingsfill, and the latter then reported it to Nan Zhengde.

In the end, Nan Zhengde decided the child’s health was more important and that as long as there was nothing fishy with the doctor, Erbao should seek medical attention first.

After receiving the news, Qiao Zhan quickly conveyed it to Lu Jingyuan, who was drinking with Cheng Xiangyun. He asked for Lu Jingyuan’s help to bring Erbao to the doctor.

Lu Jingyuan initially wanted to only have a glass of wine with Cheng Xiangyun, but after finishing the drink, the former felt it wasn’t enough, so the two decided to finish up the bottle of red wine they opened.

There’s not much going on at night anyway. It’s okay to be a little tipsy.

“No problem. I’ll bring the child to see Dr. Ding tomorrow. I’ll call him now to make an appointment.”

As Lu Jingyuan went to the side to make a phone call, Qiao Zhan’s gaze was fixed on her.

Cheng Xiangyun couldn’t bear to watch him acting like that any longer. Does this guy become immobilized after seeing a pretty lady? Does his IQ drop as well? I didn’t realize he was so perverted before. His behavior left me speechless.

“Sure,” Qiao Zhan agreed right away.

Meanwhile, Nan Chen and Ning Ran were eating on the island in the middle of the reservoir.

The plain table was full of dishes such as chicken, fish, and pork.

Compared to Nan Chen and Ning Ran’s usual meals, this was considered a feast.

Naturally, Nan Chen and Ning Ran couldn’t prepare so many dishes by themselves. They were all brought by Guo Si.

He also brought a bottle of “good wine,” which was a bottle of white wine that cost over a hundred.

“You’re not here to see us off with this large meal, are you? In the past, prisoners on death row would be given a good meal before they were beheaded.” Ning Ran looked at Guo Si.

“Of course not. Those people have gone into the city today. No one is watching me, so I brought more dishes today and want to have a drink with both of you. I’m sorry for the bad treatment these few days. Let me drink a toast to you.”

With that, Guo Si raised his head and took a sip.

Nan Chen and Ning Ran didn’t respond because not only did they dislike white wine, but they also hadn’t figured out the situation yet.

What if the wine is poisoned?

“Don’t you trust me? I’ve delivered the letter for you guys and received a hundred thousand!”

At the mention of money, Guo Si’s eyes lit up as he grinned from ear to ear.

Nan Chen and Ning Ran heaved a sigh of relief upon realizing that money was the reason for Guo Si’s elevated mood that day.

If that’s the case, there should be no real danger.

“Congratulations,” Ning Ran said smilingly.

“It’s all thanks to you. Those people only gave me a few thousand, but I got a hundred thousand from you for just an errand. You’re so generous!” Guo Si was over the moon.

“What do you plan to do next?” Nan Chen asked Guo Si.

“Of course, I’ll serve both of you well. Just tell me if you need anything. I’ll try my best to satisfy your needs,” Guo Si replied.

“So what you mean is that while you get paid by those kidnappers, you also get money from us. Basically, you’re getting money from both parties. If we’re killed by those people, that means you’ll get a hundred thousand for free. Am I right?” Nan Chen questioned frostily.

Guo Si was taken aback. “My friend, what are you talking about?”

Nan Chen stated in a somber tone, “Guo Si, we’re not friends. You’re an accomplice of those kidnappers. You kidnapped us and illegally detained us. If the police solve the crime, you’ll be sentenced to at least five years in prison. You should know that my family is well off. Money makes the world go round, Guo Si. If I find an influential lawyer to put pressure on you during the trial, you might get a life sentence, and you probably won’t have the chance to spend that hundred thousand. Well, if you use that money tomorrow, forget what I’ve just said, then.”

Guo Si finally noticed the change in Nan Chen’s tone. “Didn’t I help both of you—”

Nan Chen cut Guo Si off. “In the end, if those people kill us, you’re the main member of the kidnapping gang. You’ll be sentenced to death. I hope your wife won’t remarry and abandon your kid by then. But that hundred thousand is not enough for them to survive. Their life will be extremely difficult after your demise. Meanwhile, those kidnappers will bully them while you can only watch in despair because you’ll be six feet under by then.”

“D-Don’t try to intimidate me! I didn’t kill anyone!”

“That’s true, but they’ll most likely eliminate us soon. Once we die, you’ll be the murderer. Even if you don’t get the death penalty, you’ll be in prison for at least twenty years. What’s your age now? If you spend twenty years of your life in prison, how old will you be by the time you’re released?”

Nan Chen’s countenance and voice were as cold as ice. He finally showed his true colors.
