My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 875

Chapter 875 See No Evil

The answer was very characteristic of Nan Chen.

But even though he said that, Ning Ran knew there was no way he was totally unaffected and unpressured by these issues.

As he was in an important position, he inevitably had to consider more people's thoughts and feelings.

While it seemed as if Nan Chen never listened to anyone and always went his own way, he couldn't actually do everything he wanted. The more power he held, the heavier his responsibility was. Every decision of his could impact the tens of thousands of employees of Nanshi Corporation, so he couldn't possibly act recklessly.

For someone like Nan Chen, acting recklessly meant forcing others to do what he believed was right and punishing them if they refused to comply.

A CEO's domineeringness was established on the basis of rational, objective thinking and superb capabilities. Otherwise, they wouldn't be called domineering, but foolishly stubborn.

Of course, Nan Chen also had an irrational and biased side to him when he was with Ning Ran. He was human, after all.

Ning Ran and Nan Chen began to stretch. She watched the latter bend down and place his hands against the floor with ease, flexibly folding his tall and slender body in half.

“Should I go explain to Grandpa?” Ning Ran asked, turning to face the man.

“How do you plan to explain to him?” questioned Nan Chen in return.

Ning Ran wasn't quite sure about that yet. She gave it a thought before voicing, “I'll tell Grandpa that this is my issue and that it has nothing to do with you.”

Right after she said that, she found the statement inappropriate. It sounded unconvincing even to herself.

Nan Chen also thought the same. “I think you'd better not tell Grandpa that. You'll just add fuel to the fire.”

His words made sense to Ning Ran. She groaned, “But I can't think of any other better way. There's no way I'll back out now. I can't accept it.”

Nan Chen could understand that. Ning Ran was utterly hardworking and sacrificed a lot for her career. It was impossible for her to back out so easily now that she had just begun to see some results.

It was common for humans to feel the need to realize their self-worth; only a good-for-nothing would want to rely on others all the time. Naturally, Nan Chen did not want Ning Ran to be an incompetent person who would only depend on other people.

That was why he always supported her firmly despite the immense pressure he was facing.

Nan Chen did not want to discourage Ning Ran. For him, every motivated person deserved respect.

“Don't worry. No one will ask you to back out, and no one can pressure me using your issue. Even if they do, I can take it. Just go ahead and do what you want.”

Nan Chen's words touched Ning Ran deeply. She turned around, wrapping her arms around his neck.

As they were both sweaty from the jog, the atmosphere turned somehow ambiguous when they embraced each other.

The orange blossom scent from Ning Ran's soft and feminine body was richer than usual because of her increased body heat, and Nan Chen couldn't resist inhaling deeply. The next moment, he leaned down and closed the distance between them.

Before Ning Ran could even react, Nan Chen's lips were already on hers.

Soon, she got carried away by the wonderful feeling and held him closer.

Just as they indulged themselves in the sweet moment, a yelp sounded behind them. “Oh my! Daddy and Mommy are kissing...”

Dabao hurriedly covered Erbao's eyes. “See no evil!”

One of the downsides to the internet age was that even little kids had access to all kinds of information, to the extent that they even knew what kissing was.

Ning Ran hastily let go and pushed Nan Chen away, her face as red as a tomato.

It's all his fault. Why did he kiss me now?

“Mommy, you guys should carry on with what you were doing. I'll bring Erbao back home,” suggested Dabao a bit stiffly.

He was usually a calm and composed kid, but the sudden incident caught him off guard. Because of what he said, Ning Ran felt even more awkward.

“Uh... It's not what you think...” Ning Ran managed with a pale face.

“We came out to jog, and we ended up...” Nan Chen also made an attempt to explain, but he soon realized it was impossible to do so. It would just seem like they were trying to deceive themselves.

The two shared a look and decided there was no point in explaining anymore when things had come to this point.

“Mommy, I want to jog, too,” chirped Erbao at that moment, wanting to join in the fun.

“You're too young to jog. Go have your breakfast and prepare for school,” Ning Ran responded with a smile.

“Who says kids can't jog?” Erbao retorted. She turned to Dabao, whom she trusted more, and questioned, “Dabao, can kids jog?”

“Well, I don't think there's a rule prohibiting that, but we should go home first. Let us not disturb Daddy and Mommy,” Dabao coaxed while taking her hand to lead her away.

“We're also done jogging. Let's go back together.” Tidying her hair, Ning Ran let out an exhale and walked over to hold Dabao's and Erbao's hands before walking toward the villa.

By the time they took their showers and changed into fresh clothes, breakfast was ready.

Despite countless reminders from Nan Chen and Ning Ran, Dabao stayed on the couch and scrolled through his phone.
