After exiting the highway, Nan Chen spotted Ouyang Qingâs red sports car.
How deliberate is she to wait at the highway intersection?
âChen, I want to see the children, so I waited here for you,â said Ouyang Qing sweetly.
Then, she waved at Dabao and Erbao in the car. âHello, darlings.â
Erbao mumbled, âAm I even close to you?â
Luckily, Ouyang Qing did not hear anything as she was outside and Erbao was inside the car.
Dabao shot a glare at Erbao, who fell silent immediately.
Dabaoâs words had the most effect on Erbao, even more so than Ning Ranâs. Erbao would follow all of her brotherâs instructions.
âIâm going to bring them to visit their mother. I already said that weâll discuss any matters tomorrow.â
Nan Chen was slightly annoyed.
âChen, Iâm not deliberately disturbing you. I just want to see the two children,â insisted Ouyang Qing.
âFine. Now that youâve seen them, you can leave now,â said Nan Chen.
Dabao glanced at Erbao, who revealed a sweet smile. She waved at Ouyang Qing. âHello!â
When Ouyang Qing saw that Erbao was taking the initiative to greet her, she rushed towards her.
âDarling, how about I treat you to dessert?â
âOkay!â Erbao agreed immediately.
Nan Chen was a little surprised. Why is Erbao being so friendly with Ouyang Qing?
âNo. You shouldnât eat desserts at night,â refused Nan Chen.
âBut desserts can help to improve my mood! I want to eat too,â said Dabao.
âYou want to eat too? I thought you usually donât eat desserts.â
âMy emotions were stirred up today, so I want to eat something sweet.â Dabao put on a mature air.
âChen, since the two darlings want to eat, just let me treat them.â Ouyang Qing thought that her chance had arrived.
However, Nan Chen was still hesitating.
âDaddy, just go to the hospital yourself and visit Mommy. Weâll follow this lady to have dessert. Whatâs wrong with that? Iâm sure that sheâll take good care of us, right?â
Erbao glanced at Ouyang Qing.
âOf course! Iâll definitely take good care of these two darlings. Theyâre so obedient anyway, so thereâs no need for you to worry about them,â agreed Ouyang quickly.
Nan Chen was still hesitant, he was not comfortable leaving the two children with Ouyang Qing.
âThen, Iâll tag along too.â That was Nan Chenâs final decision.
âThereâs no need, Daddy. Go ahead with your work. You donât have to keep us company. Itâs more fun if we spend time alone with this lady,â insisted Erbao.
âYeah, Daddy. You donât need to worry about us. Weâll look for you after we finish eating,â said Dabao as well.
âChen, donât worry. We have the bodyguards tagging along too. Do you distrust me that much?â whined Ouyang Qing.
âYeah, Daddy. Donât worry! Dabao, letâs get into the pretty ladyâs car.â Erbao looked like she was brimming with excitement.
âOkay!â Dabao nodded in agreement.
Ouyang Qing was overjoyed. As long as I win the childrenâs favor, the threat Ding Mi poses will be significantly reduced!
Although the kids are not mine, they like me. I can take good care of them.
In addition to the Ouyang familyâs wealth backing me up, how can that insignificant actress be a threat to me?
âOkay, then. Go with her. Iâll let the bodyguards go with you and you must stay in contact with me all the time. Donât come home too late, okay?â Nan Chen relented in the end.
He arrived at the hospital half an hour later.
From afar, he spotted a man pacing in front of Ning Ranâs hospital ward, looking extremely frustrated.
When Nan Chen walked closer, he realized that the person was Ouyang Qi.
Why is this guy pacing around outside?
When Ouyang Qi noticed Nan Chen, a suspicious expression crossed his face as if he had just saw a ghost.
âWhat are you doing here?â asked Nan Chen coldly.
âOf course Iâm here to visit her. Youâre the real Nan Chen, right?â Ouyang Qi looked like he suddenly got a revelation.
Nan Chen remained silent. Is there a fake Nan Chen?
Oh, right! There actually is another oneâNan Xing.
âIf youâre here to visit, why are you pacing around in the corridors?â
A bitter look appeared on Ouyang Qiâs face. âI want to go in too, but you refused to let me in. Oh, wait.
The imposter refused to let me in. He kept lying to me that heâs Nan Chen, but heâs actually Nan Xing.
Damn it! He tricked me. How could he do that?â
Indeed, Nan Xing had been standing guard here. No wonder this guy canât enter.
When Nan Chen entered the ward, he spotted Nan Xing there as expected.
Not only was Nan Xing present, but Zheng Lunlun was also there.
In addition to the person lying in bed, the three of them were each clutching a phone. Their heads were lowered as they focused attentively on it.
They were so attentive that no one raised their heads when Nan Chen entered.
âHey, move to the side! Whatâs going on with you?â
Ning Ran suddenly yelled. Her voice was loud, not sounding like a sickly patient at all.
âItâs all Uncle Xingâs fault! Heâs such a noob, playing like an elementary school kid,â chided Zheng Lunlun as well.
On the other hand, Nan Xing remained silent and let Ning Ran and Zheng Lunlun complain about him.
Itâs true that Iâm the most amateurish amongst them. So what? Who said that I canât play if Iâm an amateur?
Without amateurs like me, how can skilled players show their prowess?
Nan Chen stood there for a few minutes, yet not a single person greeted him. They were extremely engrossed in their game.
This made Nan Chen a bit angry.
What a rabble.
âAhem!â Nan Chen finally made a sound.
Yet, everyone ignored him, none of them raised their heads.
They were in the midst of an intense game. No one had the time to entertain him.
Striding towards Zheng Lunlun, Nan Chen snatched his phone away.
âWhat are you doing? Iâm going to die⦠Uncle Chen?â
Nan Xing and Ning Ran were momentarily stunned before they realized who had entered.
Both of them quickly kept their phones and stared at Nan Chen.
âContinue playing. I wonât disturb you,â said Nan Chen with a solemn expression.
âWell, Zheng Lunlun came and he insisted on playing a game. If we refuse, heâll make a ruckus and pester us. This is the hospital. If he actually kicks up a fuss, weâll affect the others. Hence, we had no choice but to listen to him and play a game with him,â defended Nan Xing.
âYeah, thatâs what happened. Heâs a kid after all, and weâre the adults. We need to give in to him,â
agreed Ning Ran.
Zheng Lunglung was stunned. So Iâm the scapegoat now?
I wasnât the one who suggested to play a game. It was Ning Ran, whoâs almost going crazy after being stuck in the hospital for so long.
Now that Nan Chenâs here, the two of them pushed the blame to me. I canât believe this!
Are they even worthy to be my elders? Are these elders pushing the blame on me?
Nan Chen remained silent, with cold expression on his face.
Actually, there was nothing wrong with playing games. However, he could not understand why there were so engrossed with it.
At this moment, someone entered. It was Ouyang Qi, who had been pacing outside for a while.
Previously, Nan Xing and Zheng Lunlun prohibited him from entering. Now that Nan Chen had arrived, he thought that he would be more reasonable as he was the CEO. Hence, he decided to give it a shot.
When he entered, he realized that all four of them had a solemn expression and the room was dead silent.
Whatâs going on? Although the hospital ward should be quiet, we arenât prohibited from talking, right?
Arenât they being too rule-abiding by staying so quiet?
âHello, everyone!â Ouyang Qi waved his hands, greeting Ning Ran and the others as if he were a high-
ranking official.
However, everyone ignored him.
