My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 885

Chapter 885 First Encounter

Lu Jingyuan arrived at the hotel room and found her two daughters walking out, with Nan Xing following behind in a robe. He kept repeating, “Let me explain...”

What's happening? Why does he need to explain himself? Did Nan Xing bully my precious daughters?

“What are you doing? Why are you scaring my daughters?” she demanded.

“I will never dare bully them. They're the ones bullying me. They said I have a low alcohol tolerance, no ability, and no manners. Can you persuade them to listen to my explanation?” Nan Xing pleaded.

“What happened?” Lu Jingyuan asked Lu Yunbing.

The woman shook her head. “It's complicated.”

Lu Jingyuan raised her gaze toward Nan Xing and questioned, “Why are you wearing a robe? Who did you spend the night with?”

“I... I don't know,” said the disheveled Nan Xing, rubbing his head in confusion. He had no recollection of what happened as he had been heavily intoxicated and passed out. Upon waking up, Nan Xing realized that he was the only one in the room and had no memory of who had stayed with him the previous night.

“You don't know? You don't know who you were with?” Lu Jingyuan sneered.

“There wasn't anyone else. I was alone,” the man answered.

“Why are you wearing a robe?”

“My clothes reek of alcohol, so I asked the hotel staff to wash them. I didn't have any other clothes to wear, so I had to wear this. Your daughters said I have no manners, but I didn't want to wear it in the first place. I had no choice,” Nan Xing explained helplessly.

Lu Jingyuan couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. She knew very well just how sharp-tongued her daughters could be, and from the looks of it, Nan Xing had probably been caught unaware. “Well, let's hear what he has to say for himself,” she said.

Lu Yunxue immediately agreed, “I think we should give him another chance.”

After all, she was rather fond of Nan Xing. He was less stern than most people she knew, which made him more likable in her eyes.

Plus, Lu Yunxue needed his help so she and her mother could leave the capital and study in Flower City.

While the capital was a nice place to live, her best friend, Erbao, was in Flower City. According to her, it was much warmer there. In fact, it hardly ever snowed during winter. Most of the time, it was warm, and even when it got hot, it wasn't as extreme as it could be in the capital.

For someone like Lu Yunxue, who was used to the warmth in Livingsfill, the capital was far too cold during winter and far too hot in summer.

Hence, being able to go to Flower City was the best thing for her.

After returning to the hotel room, Nan Xing explained the situation that led Lu Yunxue and her sister to come to see him. He hoped that Lu Jingyuan would be able to make a fair assessment.

Unfortunately, Lu Jingyuan had no intention of making the decision herself. Instead, she handed the task to her two beloved daughters.

“My brother said that we will consider if both of you agree to go to the Flower City with him. But if one of you disagrees, then it's a no-go,” Lu Jingyuan explained.

Clearly, Nan Xing had to tread carefully with these interviewers.

If he wanted to make any headway, he would have to find a way to convince the two girls.

“Ahem...” Nan Xing cleared his throat. “I'm actually not an impolite person. I received strict training in etiquette from a young age. Sometimes I appear casual because I don't see the need to pretend. People who act all prim and proper are usually not very pleasant.”

There was some truth to what he said, but it was also a way for him to boast about himself.

“So are you saying that Erbao's dad is not a good person? Uncle Nan Chen is a righteous man,” Lu Yunbing questioned mercilessly.

Nan Xing was inwardly crying out in frustration. What has this got to do with my brother? Can she stop her wild imagination? How am I supposed to continue the conversation?

“I'm not talking about my brother. He's born looking serious. I wasn't referring to him,” Nan Xing struggled to defend himself.

“You still haven't convinced us to go with you,” Lu Yunbing said curtly.
