My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 932

Chapter 932 Greater Challenges

Ning Ran fumed in anger.

I was about to launch a tirade, but he spoke up ahead of me!

“We're talking about the children's education—”

“Didn't I send someone to pick you up? Why did you let Ruan Anxi send you home?” Nan Chen cut in relentlessly.

“Let's talk about this another day—”

Nan Chen refused to back down. “We shall talk about this today.”

Then there's no need to talk.

Ning Ran held her ground, her voice firm. “Our son's well-being is more important. While he may possess remarkable intelligence, highly intelligent individuals often face greater challenges. I fear that excessive reliance on his intellect may have adverse effects on him. The adult world is complex and filled with darkness that even the brightest minds struggle to comprehend and navigate. I trust you understand this all too well. So, why did you support Dabao in engaging in those activities?”

Nan Chen tried to interrupt but to no avail as she poured her frustrations out.

She then glared at Nan Chen, waiting for his answer.

Nan Chen, with his dominating demeanor, declined to engage in a heated argument with Ning Ran.

“Yes,” he replied tersely, acknowledging her statement without further elaboration.

“That's it?”

“What else do you want? Wake Dabao up to give him a beating?” Nan Chen retorted.

“No, that's not what I meant,” Ning Ran clarified. “You need to be direct instead of avoiding the issue. Your evasiveness only hampers my ability to educate the children effectively.”

“Dabao was trying to protect you. That's why he took those actions,” Nan Chen explained. “If you were in his position, wouldn't you want to protect your mommy if she was being cyberbullied?”

Ning Ran could not give him an answer, for it was clear that she would reply in the affirmative.

“It's not just knowledge that children need, but also a sound character. Having a sense of responsibility and the ability to protect their loved ones are vital qualities. By immediately dismissing him, you're conveying the message that his actions were wrong. In future situations, he may become passive and refrain from taking any action because you've ingrained the notion that his actions were incorrect. When he believes something is right, but you contradict him, he will become perplexed and start doubting both you and the world. If he loses trust in you, how will you be able to educate him?”

As Nan Chen spoke coldly, he glared at Ning Ran.

Ning Ran was rendered speechless.

Fine. We both make sense, so this conversation won't go anywhere.

“Fine, your perspective also holds merit. This matter has its own pros and cons, and it ultimately comes down to individual priorities and choices. However, I still believe he shouldn't get involved. I don't want him to be exposed to the darker side of the world too much.”

Nan Chen nodded. “I support your idea, but we'll have to do that slowly.”

“Fine. It's getting late, so I'll go wash up and get ready for bed.” Ning Ran spun on her heels and headed to the bathroom.

Nan Chen went after her. “Why did you allow Ruan Anxi to give you a ride home?”

Ning Ran groaned. “Why won't you give up? So what if he gave me a ride home? Why are you so nervous?”

“I sent someone to pick you up. Why did you allow him to send you home?” Nan Chen repeated.

“Let me remove my makeup. We'll talk about this later.”

“Sure.” Nan Chen went to wash up, too.

Ning Ran deliberately washed up slowly, hoping that Nan Chen would be asleep when she returned to her bedroom.

Alas, to her disappointment, the man didn't look sleepy at all. He was busy scrolling on his phone.

Lying beside him, Ning Ran said gently, “Thank you for giving me a chance to participate in the movie. I got my moment of fame thanks to you.”

She then sat up to kiss Nan Chen.

Nan Chen switched off the light and reciprocated her kiss.

Ning Ran was on the verge of succumbing to desire when Nan Chen abruptly halted. “Why did you accept a ride home from Ruan Anxi?” he questioned.

Hearing that, Ning Ran was on the verge of going crazy.

He's stubborn, huh?

Switching on the lights, she sat up and tugged her nightgown up. “Won't you give up?”

“No.”

“Fine, I'll make it clear. He expressed his desire to invest in a movie for me to star in and donate all the proceeds. He mentioned that he had a limited time left to live, and upon his passing, his wealth would benefit others. That's why he wanted to embark on something meaningful.”

Hearing that, Nan Chen said nothing.

“Don't you believe me? I'm telling the truth!”

Nan Chen asked, “Did you agree?”

“Of course not. I'm just an actress and know nothing about investing in movies. I'll have to ask your opinion.”

“Do you think I'll agree?”

“No,” Ning Ran replied honestly.

“Then why did you tell me about it? Isn't it obvious that he wants to launder money?”
