My Wife Is a Superstar novel Chapter 970

Chapter 970 Jealous

Nan Chen gave Rong Jilin a look of contempt.

Both Rong Yi and Rong Jilin were from the Rong family, but they were total opposites.

Nan Chen then directed his gaze toward Qiao Zhan, and the latter sneered, “You must've taken a path to come here. Didn't you see two jeeps by the side of the road?”

Rong Jilin racked his brains. I think I did see two jeeps by the road.

Qian Zhan pressed on, “I have my men stationed in the vehicles. However, out of respect for Mr. Rong Yi, they refrained from following you here. Once you evaded their surveillance, they promptly contacted the police. Fortunately, I have connections within the police force, granting me some influence over the outcome of your case. Both Sir Chen and Ms. Ning have graciously agreed to spare you this time, solely due to Mr. Rong Yi's involvement. It would be in your best interest to leave immediately unless you want to get arrested and end up in jail.”

Rong Jilin's expression changed abruptly when he heard that.

Right then, Qiao Zhan's phone rang.

Rong Jilin grew even more surprised. Didn't I jam all mobile signals? Why is his phone ringing?

Qiao Zhan shook his phone, explaining, “Your jamming device is switched off. Don't you believe me? I'm going to repeat this—Sir Chen and Ms. Ning have graciously agreed to spare you this time because of Mr. Rong Yi's involvement. If you remain stubborn, I'll inform my men to take action!”

Rong Yi glared at Rong Jilin. “Won't you leave?”

It took a while for the latter to regain his composure, and he finally walked out.

“Wait!” Qiao Zhan called out.

After Rong Jilin froze in his steps, Qian Zhan approached him and delivered a resounding slap across his face.

The impact was so powerful that the corner of Rong Jilin's lips split, drawing blood.

“Don't you dare lay a hand on the Nan family in Flower City. If you do, you'll meet a gruesome end! Consider yourself fortunate this time because of your brother, but there won't be a next time!” Qian Zhan warned with a stern voice.

Rong Jilin scowled and glared at Qiao Zhan. Nevertheless, he dared not say anything and merely stalked away.

Rong Yi seemed guilty. “I apologize on behalf of my brother.”

Nan Chen gave a dismissive wave. “It's fine.”

It was then Ning Ran realized that Nan Chen was more polite to Rong Yi now, and she knew he was doing this for her.

If it weren't for my connection with the Rong family, Nan Chen would have made Rong Jilin pay for his actions. This was the perfect opportunity to bring down the Rong family. Nan Chen could have had the police arrest Rong Jilin, using him as leverage in negotiations. The Rong family would have been at a significant disadvantage. However, Nan Chen chose not to do that because of me.

Ning Ran signed inwardly.

I haven't even reunited with my family yet, and I'm already causing trouble for Nan Chen. In the future, when Nanshi Corporation confronts Prosperity Holdings, he won't be able to go all out if he has to consider my feelings. It would be dangerous for someone as influential as him. Nan Chen won't be able to give his all and may end up sparing his enemies, but they won't show the same kindness. In a competition between major conglomerates, once they start losing ground, can lead to a devastating collapse with unimaginable consequences. While Rong Xing was previously forced to retreat from Flower City by the Nan family, this time, can Nan Chen and the Nan family withstand the joint attack from Rong Xing and Prosperity Holdings?

As Ning Ran was in a daze, Nan Chen thought she was scared stiff.

He approached her and reached out to hold her hand.

Ning Ran was taken aback by his actions, as she had never seen him behave like this in public before.

Ning Ran's hand was indeed cool as she was preoccupied with her thoughts.

Slowly, the commotion outside died down, and it was clear that the people outside had left.

Rong Yi thanked Nan Chen once again for sparing Rong Jilin's life.

Following that, Ning Ran told Nan Chen to leave with Qiao Zhan first as she wanted to talk to Rong Yi in private.

Nan Chen nodded quickly and gestured for Qiao Zhan to leave.

When he saw this, Qiao Zhan felt a little displeased. Why does Ning Ran need to have a private conversation with Rong Yi? What is she unable to say in front of Sir Chen? It's odd that Sir Chen agreed so readily. Has he overcome his jealousy?
