“My wife! My lovely wife!” Nan Chen shouted as he walked in.
No one dared to stop him.
Ning Ran was still in the midst of shooting a scene when she suddenly heard someone calling out for his wife, but she did not expect it to be herself.
Although she already had two kids, Ning Ran had never properly dated before.
As such, she would never relate the word “wife” to herself. It was a word which felt very distant to her.
That was until she heard Erbao’s affectionate voice. “Mommy……”
“I think I heard my daughter’s voice. Let me go out and take a look first.”
Ning Ran walked out, still dressed in her character’s costume.
Ning Ran was wearing a purple cheongsam that had perfectly showcased her good figure. She looked so flattering in it that Nan Xing could not stop staring at her.
He took out his phone to take a picture of her.
No one was allowed to take any photographs at the filming location. It was to prevent the leakage of any photos.
Any photos related to the production could only be distributed through official channels. The crew members were all required to sign a non-disclosure agreement. The company would take legal action against those who leaked out any photos.
Naturally, Ning Ran knew that too as she was involved in the production. “No photo-taking is allowed here!” She stopped Nan Xing immediately.
“How is that possible? I have to take a picture of my beautiful wife. Not only am I going to take a picture, I am also going to upload it onto all my social media accounts.”
Nan Xing continued to snap photos using his phone.
“You really can’t do that. There are rules to follow here!” Ning Ran was getting flustered.
As she was the leading actress and Nan Xing was there to visit her, if any photos were leaked, the responsibility would be hers.
As such, she had to stop Nan Xing from doing that.
Not to mention, she really hated Nan Xing now, because he had left her all alone at that deserted place. It was a deep grudge and she would not forgive him so easily.
Because of that, which Nan Xing was not aware of, the way in which she looked at Nan Xing was full of hatred and disdain.
Nan Xing was not stupid. He could feel Ning Ran’s hostility towards him.
He thought it was because of his attempt to take photos of her. As such, he kept his phone.
“Fine, fine. I won’t take any pictures, ok? You don’t have to be so angry.”
Just then, someone else walked over. It was Tang Jing, who was highly educated. She had a scene to shoot today as well, and had just walked out from the dressing room.
This tall and handsome man standing in front of her immediately attracted her attention. He is so darn handsome! She thought to herself.
He did not look like one of those flower boys, but rather, he was manly and exuded an air of nobility.
There was no need for any further introduction. One would know at once that this man was definitely from a distinguished family.
Tang Jing had never met Nan Chen in person before. She only saw his photos on the internet.
Tang Jing was also aware that Nan Chen was the main investor for the production.
Naturally, Tang Jing thought that this man was Nan Chen.
As Nan Chen was a legend, Tang Jing wanted to impress him.
However, she pretended not to recognize him. She asked Ning Ran, “Ding Mi, is this your husband? Aren’t you going to introduce him to us?”
Ning Ran was still annoyed with Nan Xing and was in no mood for any introductions. She merely said, “This is Nan Xing, and he is not my husband. I’m not close to him.”
Nan Xing did not know if he should be laughing or get angry. They already had two kids together. We’re not close to each other?
“Oh, it’s Mr. Nan. I’m Tang Jing. It’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Tang Jing thought that Nan Xing would have heard of her name at the least, as no one else in the entertainment industry was as highly educated as her. She was expecting Nan Xing to be surprised to know that she was Tang Jing.
However, she did not know that Nan Xing had just returned from Africa and was not kept up to date with the happenings in the entertainment industry.
Furthermore, Tang Jing had only gained some popularity recently, so Nan Xing had really never heard of her name.
Even if he had, he would not have remembered, because he had focused all his energy and attention on Ning Ran. He had no interest in other female actresses and would not pay attention to any of them.
As such, Nan Xing hardly gave any response. He only looked at her for a second, before turning his attention back to Ning Ran.
Tang Jing felt very hurt.
However, she kept a smile on her face and did not show her disappointment.
Next, she walked towards Dabao and Erbao and lowered herself to the height of the kids. “Wow, what a good-looking pair of kids. I have never met such gorgeous kids!”
Even though she sounded like she was exaggerating, it was the truth.
Dabao and Erbao both had stunningly good looks.
“Hello, big sister.” Erbao addressed Tang Jing affectionately. Erbao was delighted to have been complimented on her looks.
“Oh my, did you just call me big sister? I suddenly feel so much younger! What’s your name, darling?”
Tang Jing started to play with the kids. This effectively neutralized the awkward tension with Nan Xing.
She was a woman with a high EQ. Indeed, she behaved like someone who was highly educated.
“My name is Ning Sihan. This is my brother Ning Sirui. We are both geniuses.” Erbao said.
Ning Ran shot Erbao a stare. This girl had never been afraid of strangers. It was just their first meeting and she already started to praise herself. Hats off to her!
Tang Jing was amused by Erbao. She had never met a kid like that.
The way Tang Jing interacted with the kids caught Nan Xing’s attention.
“My lovely wife, should we invite your fellow actress to eat with us?” Nan Xing looked towards Ning Ran.
“We have a shoot to finish. Can you stop disturbing us? Bring the kids back first.” Ning Ran frowned.
“We are done for the day. Since you guys have plans, we will continue with the shoot another day.” The director said quickly.
The other crew members were stunned. Before Nan Xing arrived, the director was still shouting at everyone to speed the shooting process up. No one was allowed to leave before midnight!
The director had a hundred and eighty degree change in attitude!
“Director……”
Ning Ran wanted to say something, but was waved off by the director. “Don’t worry, I was also planning to wrap up early tonight. Just go ahead!”
What a snob! Ning Ran thought to herself.
Before Nan Xing arrived, you were still screaming at us to hurry. And now, you are just stopping like that? C’mon, be more principled!
“My lovely wife, you see, the director has given us his permission. Let’s go, I don’t think you have to change. You look fantastic in this outfit.” Nan Xing wanted to leave immediately.
“I am not going. Even if we are wrapped up for the day, I am still not going to go.” Ning Ran said.
Now, it was the director to be stunned. You are not going? If you are not going, what is the point of me calling the shoot off early?
If you don’t go, Young Master Nan Xing would think that his plans were disrupted because of our shoot and put the blame on me!
“I think you should go; Ding Mi. Young Master Nan Xing drove a distance to just to pick you up. It’s not very nice if you don’t go.” The director tried to persuade Ning Ran.
“He’s right, he’s right.” Nan Xing agreed.
“He may poison me. I can’t eat with him. Besides, who said he drove from a place far away? Is it even considered a far distance from town to here?” Ning Ran snapped.
“I did actually come from a distance away. I came to look for you once I got back from Africa.”
“Where did you say you came from?”
“Africa.”
“Are you lying to me in broad daylight? Last night, we were even……”
Ning Ran stopped herself. She could not possibly say all of that in front of everyone.
Dabao was flustered too. Oh no! It’s going to be exposed. This conversation needs to stop!
