My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 85

“Open the door. Now. Immediately.” Nan Chen’s voice came from the phone like a blanket of snow sweeping over.

“Uncle, I am really sleepy, is there anything?” Zheng Lunlun was recalcitrant.

Nan Chen had already cut off the phone call.

Zheng Lunlun turned his head around and was about to seek help from Ning Ran but he only saw her bending over stealthily, creeping over towards the bedroom.

There was no way for her to escape. The only option left was to find a safe place to hide.

But where would be a safe hiding spot? Under the bed? But she could not fit in!

After much consideration, she was left with the wardrobe.

The good thing was that the wardrobe was spacious enough for Ning Ran to enter. It was not cramped at all and she was able to draw the clothes to cover herself. She then closed the wardrobe door.

Seeing Ning Ran concealed from sight, Zheng Lunlun thought that she was really a genius. How could she be so good at hiding if she had never done so before?

Zheng Lunlun took a deep breath, and calmed himself down before he opened the door.

A gush of cold air rushed in when he opened the door. Nan Chen stood there without a single word nor action but it made Zheng Lunlun feel oppressed.

“Uncle, what is it that brought you here in the middle of the night?” Zheng Lunlun asked cowardly.

Nan Chen did not utter a single word but strode into the hotel room.

There was a bag full of exorbitant gifts that was left on the table.

A bag of opened snacks was left on the carpet. It was obvious that someone was eating while sitting on the floor.

Nan Chen raised his eyebrows.

“Aren’t you asleep?” Nan Chen asked coldly.

“Yes, I was too tired from filming today. After I reached the room, I went to bed once I had washed up.” Zheng Lunlun’s eyes started darting around, avoiding Nan Chen’s eyes.

Nan Chen could definitely see through such a lie with loopholes.

He felt a bit distracted as he could smell a faint orange blossom scent which was deeply ingrained in his soul.

He told himself that it was impossible but he could not fool himself as he really could smell this scent.

Apart from Nan Chen, no one else was able to smell this scent, as he had ten times the sensitivity of smell as compared to a normal person.

Nan Chen sat down on the sofa and leaned backwards. He then closed his eyes.

The scent was lingering not in the room but in his life.

Zheng Lunlun watched the change of expressions on Nan Chen’s dashing face but he did not understand why.

He only felt that his Uncle was a little unusual yet he could not tell where went wrong.

Nan Chen opened his eyes once again, and his long legs carried him to the study area.

Zheng Lunlun just followed behind him as he did not dare to make any noise.

The study area and the bar area were connected. On top of the shelf were iconic with a few classic novels and a few of the latest finance magazines.

Placed on top of the wine rack were a few bottles of whisky and red wine as well as a bottle of vodka.

There was no tinge of orange blossom scent here but only the smell coming from the dust on the bookshelf and a bottle of opened wine.

Zheng Lunlun was not able to smell all these, but Nan Chen could.

He walked back to the living hall and smelt the orange blossom scent again.

Nan Chen was certain that the culprit emitting the smell, had never entered the study area.

His eyes darted towards the bedroom.

“Which room do you sleep in?” Nan Chen questioned Zheng Lunlun

Zheng Lunlun pointed to the room where Ning Ran was not hiding and said, “This one.”

“Can I take a look?” Nan Chen questioned.

Zheng Lunlun thought to himself, what’s wrong with Third Uncle? He had already visited my room when I returned and now he is here again?

I am already an adult; it is not too early to have a girlfriend. Why am I so nervous?

But Zheng Lunlun still agreed eventually, “You may take a look around, it’s fine.”

Nan Chen walked into the bedroom. The room was much cleaner and neater compared to the living area.

The items placed on the bed were very neat and it was obvious that no one has slept on it before.

But Nan Chen was not surprised by this at all. He knew that Zheng Lunlun lied to him that he was sleeping.
