My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 695

Chapter 695 Bad Example

Qiao Zhan had an innocent expression on his face. “I genuinely think that you’re suitable to play the role of…” “Get lost! What do you know? You dumb cow!” Cheng Xiangyun roared.

“Dumb cow? What do you mean?” Qiao Zhan was indignant. “I’m talking about you! You’re a big dumb cow!” Cheng Xiangyun raged.

With that, Qiao Zhan glanced at Ning Ran and said, “Madam, did you hear what she just said? I find it extremely insulting!” “What does a dumb cow like you know? Why are you interrupting our conversation?”

Qiao Zhan’s lips twitched, but he held his tongue in the end. After all, arguing with others verbally wasn’t his strong suit. Instead, he excelled in physical combat.

“Chief Qiao, Cheng always talks this way. Don’t take it personally,” Ning Ran comforted with a smile.

“Why are you comforting him? He’s the one who started this. What did you just call him? Chief Qiao? I wonder how someone like him got that position. Did you address him wrongly?” Cheng Xiangyun asked.

Hearing that, Qiao Zhan cleared his throat. “I am the head of security at Nanshi Corporation. Is there a problem?”

He said smugly, clearly proud of his position. Worried that Cheng Xiangyun might not believe in him, Qiao Zhan produced his work ID and waved it in front of Cheng Xiangyun, deliberately showing it off.

“That’s enough! Stop flashing your ID. It’s annoying!” Meanwhile, Ning Ran found their childish banter amusing.

Shortly after that, a car arrived. Nan Xing had returned along with Dabao and Erbao. “Mommy…” Erbao called out, dragging out her voice as she threw herself into Ning Ran’s embrace.

As soon as Ning Ran saw the children, her grievances magically disappeared. With Nan Xing’s arrival, dinner was finally ready to be served.

More than ten people enjoyed dinner together, including the driver and the bodyguards. They were separated into two tables, and the atmosphere was lively.

During dinner, they inevitably discussed what happened to Ning Ran. That topic piqued Nan Xing’s interest almost instantly.

“I told you that Lu Jingyuan is not a good person! It must be her!”

He could still vividly remember the incident where Lu Jingyuan splashed him with water. At that moment, he finally found an outlet to vent his resentment.

Before Ning Ran could even say anything, someone else spoke up in annoyance.

Pouting her greasy lips, Erbao reprimanded, “How dare you speak ill of Aunt Jing? She’s nice to us.”

“She’s right, Uncle Xing. As an adult, you shouldn’t defame others blindly without any proof. You should set a good example for us,” Dabao chimed in.

Upon hearing that, Nan Xing expressed his dismay. “I’m exhausted from spending the whole day playing with you both, and this is what I get in return? I’m your uncle. Are you guys closer to me or her? Shouldn’t you guys side with me instead of an outsider?”

“Of course we are closer to you, Uncle Xing,” Dabao responded calmly.

“If so, why are you ridiculing me for the sake of an outsider?”

“That’s because I consider you my family and I believe that you’re a reasonable person.” Dabao remained calm and composed.

Nan Xing was rendered speechless by Dabao’s remarks, for the little boy praised and criticized him at the same time.

“You’re a child. Stop interrupting when the adults are talking,” Nan Xing said sternly, reproaching the little boy like an elder.

“Okay. We won’t interrupt as long as you stop slandering Aunt Jing. That’s not very gentlemanly of you to speak ill of a lady like that,” Dabao replied.

“You…”

Nan Xing turned to look at Ning Ran, signaling for her to teach her kids a lesson.

“Dabao, don’t speak that way to Uncle Xing. It’s impolite,” Ning Ran voiced disapprovingly.

“Okay, Mommy. However, I don’t think I said anything wrong. If Aunt Jing speaks ill of Uncle Xing, I would disagree with her too. To me, both Uncle Xing and Aunt Jing are nice people.”

Upon hearing that, Ning Ran was at a loss for words too.

Nevertheless, Nan Xing was still dissatisfied, so he argued with Ning Ran over the matter after dinner.

As a matter of fact, Cheng Xiangyun agreed with Nan Xing’s point of view too. She felt that something was off about Lu Jingyuan.

However, it was pointless to debate over that. After all, no one had any concrete evidence.

Later that night, Ning Ran lay down to rest and suddenly received a video call from Wang Xiaoou.

She rolled over and sat up swiftly before answering the call. “What’s up, Ou?”

At that moment, Wang Xiaoou was still in the office in her usual workwear.

Ning Ran could not help but feel bad for troubling the team with her personal affairs.

“Take a look at this.”

Wang Xiaoou picked up the tablet from the table and positioned it before the camera so that Ning Ran could see.

Once Ning Ran took a good look at it, she realized that it was a photo of them in a bar.
