Chapter 519 Urging To Get Married In the meantime, Ning Ran and her family were happily enjoying hot pot in a villa in Red Maple City. A harmonious and blissful atmosphere filled the air.
Erbao could not even be bothered to speak. Instead, she just held her head low and kept stuffing the food in her mouth.
Seeing that, Ning Ran would remind her to slow down from time to time.
âItâs fine, Mommy. Thatâs her usual speed. Itâs not a problem,â said Dabao.
âIs the hotpot I made delicious?â Nan Chen asked the two children, feeling pleased with his cooking.
âItâs yummy!â Dabao nodded approvingly.
Ning Ran was baffled when she heard Nan Chenâs question. Since when did you make this? I made everything from scratch. And now youâre taking credit for my hard work?
âGood girl. Your mommy put in a lot of work, too. We made this together and made sure to do everything perfectly,â Nan Chen stated.
Ning Ran merely glanced at him. She could not be bothered to entertain him.
Iâm obviously the mastermind while heâs the assistant. And now heâs pretending to be the person who did all the hard work and even giving me some credit.
âOh, no, no. Itâs all your hard work. You made it wonderfully. Itâs impressive,â Ning Ran remarked with a mocking smile.
Nan Chen sensed the sarcasm in her smile. Yet, he ignored it. âOh, you flatter me too much.â
Erbao, who seemed to be focused on her food, suddenly chimed, âThis obviously tastes like Mommyâs cooking.â Truth was, she could not bear to listen to the conversation anymore.
Hearing that, Ning Ran flashed a smug smile at Nan Chen. Do you hear that? My little girl is a discerning person.
Nan Chen turned to look at Erbao. âWhy would you say that?â
Sensing her fatherâs eyes on her, Erbao felt nervous, and she turned to her brother for support.
âErbao is used to Mommyâs hotpot. Naturally, she can identify whose cooking it is,â Dabao explained nonchalantly.
âThatâs right!â Erbao nodded profusely.
âWell, I just wanted to test if you two can identify whose cooking it is. Thatâs why I said those words. I like the hotpot Mommy makes, too. Letâs get her to make that for us every day in the future, okay?â Nan Chen asked.
These children really do support you. Fine. Since youâre the genius in making hotpot, then you should make it every day.
âMr. Chen, youâll fall ill from having too much hotpot. If youâd like to eat it every day, I can prepare it for you, but not for the children. I donât want them to have swollen lips,â Ning Ran refuted emotionlessly.
âHotpot is not the only thing Mommy knows how to make. She makes other delicious dishes too!â
Erbao piped in hurriedly.
âExactly,â Dabao agreed.
âIf you want to eat Mommyâs cooking every day, then you have to take some action.â Erbao put down her utensils, looking as if she wanted to discuss something serious.
âWhat actions?â Nan Chen was puzzled.
âYouâve got to get married to Mommy. That way, youâll get to enjoy her cooking every day. If you donât, sheâll get married and cook for someone else. Then, you wonât get to eat it anymore.â Erbaoâs logic was a little exaggerated, but it made complete sense.
Nan Chen eyed Ning Ran. âWho are you getting married to? And who are you going to cook for?â
âI wasnât the one who said that. What are you asking me for? Sheâs just a kid whoâs speaking her mind,â Ning Ran replied with contempt.
âDid you teach her to say that? Are you urging us to get married?â Nan Chen did not believe her words.
âMr. Chen, you think too much. Iâve never thought of that. Youâre way out of my league.â With that, she turned to Erbao and warned, âNo more food for you if you talk nonsense again.â
Hearing that, Erbao quickly picked up her utensils and continued eating in silence.
Since you adults arenât listening to me, then thereâs nothing I can do about it. Whether you two get married or not is no more important than my meal. Hmph. Iâm going to continue eating. Dealing with you two is such a waste of time.
Just then, Ning Ranâs phone rang. She grabbed her phone and stared at the screen, noting that it was from Cheng Xiangyun.
âWhatâs up, Cheng?â Ning Ran asked after accepting the call.
âWhich one was it? I seriously canât tell!â Cheng Xiangyun asked immediately, leaving Ning Ran confused.
âHuh? What are you saying? It sounds gibberish to me. Speak properly!â Ning Ran scolded.
âOh, come on. Donât tell me you donât know what happened on the internet?â Cheng Xiangyun countered anxiously.
âSo many things are happening on the internet every second. Iâm not the internet. How am I supposed to be aware of everything that happens there?â
âYou really donât know about it? Oh, my gosh. Are you living in a cave? The internet has blown up. How could you not know about it?â
âSo what exactly is going on? Canât you just tell me already?â
âI canât really put it in words. Basically, Ouyang Qing drugged Nan Chen. And by drug, I mean that kind of drug. After that, she broadcasted her scandalous scene with him onto the internet. Damn. These city people really do know how to play. I canât believe she had the guts to do such a thing. This is so crazy!â
Cheng Xiangyun shrieked with excitement.
Ning Ran was baffled by the news. âWhen did this happen?â
âAbout an hour ago.â
âNo way. That man you just mentioned has been with me the whole day today. Heâs even having a meal now. How would he be drugged by her?â Ning Ran was in disbelief.
Cheng Xiangyun explained, âI havenât finished. That was just the first half of the story. Anyway, during the critical moment, the netizens found out the man was not Nan Chen, but Nan Xing! The problem is, they both look exactly the same, so the netizens are currently analyzing if itâs Nan Xing or Nan Chen now. Although the person in the video said he was Nan Xing, itâs still hard to identify. Since you said you were with Nan Chen, then thereâs no doubt that the person in the hotel room was Nan Xing. Oh, my. Ouyang Qing has really dug her own grave now. Iâd like to see how arrogant she can be in the future.â
It was apparent that Cheng Xiangyun was in a good mood.
âIs the video still on the internet?â Ning Ranâs interest was piqued.
âOf course. Hurry up and watch it. Itâs going to be deleted soon. After all, itâs quite an explicit scene. Iâm sure itâll be deleted.â
âOkay. Iâll watch it now.â After ending the call, Ning Ran made a search on the internet and found the video with no difficulty.
It was really explicit. There were even some scenes that were censored because they exposed Ouyang Qingâs body.
If the video was not processed it would be an act of spreading illegal videos that could cause Ouyang Qing to be interrogated by relevant departments.
After watching the video, Ning Ran could confirm that the person was Nan Xing.
Though both Nan Xing and Nan Chen looked similar, they had extremely different vibes.
They carried themselves differently, especially when it came to the way they talked and laughed.
Since Ning Ran had grown closer to both of them, it was natural that she could identify who was in the video at a glance.
As she read the flooding comments that scolded Ouyang Qing, she could not help but feel amused.
Ouyang Qing is a daughter of a rich family. How could she do such a thing?
âWho were you talking to? Whatâs making you so happy?â Nan Chen appeared out of nowhere.
âNothing.â Ning Ran pretended as if nothing happened.
âWhy are you denying it when youâre obviously smiling? Who called you just now?â Nan Chen was slightly upset.
âCheng Xiangyun.â
âWhat did she say that made you so happy?â Nan Chen still did not believe her.
âItâs just a topic among women. Do I have to report that to you as well? Donât you think youâre asking too many questions?â Ning Ran frowned.
