Chapter 708: Chapter 716

Chapter 716 Do You Think You Are A Hulk After confirming that his wife and children were safe, Nan Chen started to feel drowsy and went to bed.

Two hours later, he got up feeling so much better.

After waking up, he was surprised that his children were still asleep. Only when he asked about them did he know that the children had woken up long ago. They had their breakfast in the room because they didn’t want to disturb his rest.

Pushing open the door, he saw Dabao reading a book and Erbao painting her toenails with nail polish.

The moment Erbao saw Nan Chen, she immediately cheered and rushed over to him. “Daddy, I missed you!”

Nan Chen picked her up from the floor. “Did you gain weight again? You’re heavier than last time.”

“No, I grew taller instead! My height has increased a few meters.” Hearing what she said, Nan Chen was amused. A few meters? That’s a bit scary.

Dabao heaved a sigh and corrected his sister, “It’s centimeters, not meters! Growing a few meters in such a short time? Do you think you’re a hulk?”

Erbao didn’t want to admit defeat. “It’s the same thing, just with a few extra syllables. No matter what, I did grow taller!”

Nan Chen put his daughter down and checked her height with his hand. Indeed, it had increased quite a lot.

Right then, Erbao heard her father’s stomach rumble. “Haha! You must be hungry, Daddy. Let’s go and have breakfast.”

It was true that Nan Chen was starving as he had rushed all the way here. He didn’t have the appetite to eat anything earlier because of the uneasiness in him.

Now that the weight was off his mind, he began to feel hungry. It had long passed the ideal time for breakfast.

The breakfast was ready. Grabbing a piece of bread, he took a bite and asked, “Where’s Ning Ran?”

Nan Xing came over. “She went to the production team. The director called her and said that there was only one scene to film today. She’ll come back once it’s don—”

Nan Chen leaped to his feet. “Didn’t I say not to let her leave the inn? Why did she still go there?”

“You said not to let her go out before you arrived, but you’re here now, and you didn’t say anything more about making her stay at the inn. Also, I asked Qiao Zhan to escort her. There shouldn’t be any problem,” he said.

“What makes you think that there wouldn’t be any problems? Nonsense!” Nan Chen shouted, “Give me the car key. I want to go to the filming location!”

“Chen, why are you shouting at me? Ning Ran has been filming all this while. I told her to stay home, but she said she only had a scene to shoot and would come back as soon as possible once it was done. I couldn’t stop her. Qiao Zhan is with her, anyway.”

“Cut the crap! Car key!”

Nan Xing took the key in a hurry. “Do you know the way? Let me drive you there. Don’t worry. It’ll be fine.”

“Hurry up!” Nan Chen roared.

“Daddy, you still haven’t finished eating. Is there anything wrong?” Erbao was a little scared at her father’s agitated response.

Nan Chen comforted her at once, “It’s nothing. Don’t be afraid, Darling. I’m just going to see your mommy acting.”

“I want to go too. I’ve filmed in that place before. Let’s go together. I know the way,” Erbao volunteered.

She wasn’t lying. Erbao was the only child who would never get lost. No matter how far it was or how complicated the roads were, she would always find her way back.

“It’s okay. You wait for us here together with Dabao. We’ll be back soon.”

Nan Chen had no idea how the situation was over there. He couldn’t possibly bring his children along.

“But I want to go. I’ll sit obediently in the car and won’t get out. It’ll be fine.” Erbao wasn’t happy at having to stay behind.

“No, you can’t. All right, I need to go now. Stay here with Dabao. I’ll be back real quick.”

With that, Nan Chen hurriedly left the inn with Nan Xing.

After getting into the car, Nan Chen kept urging Nan Xing to drive faster even though he was already speeding.

“Chen, what exactly are you worried about? You don’t have to be this anxious just because Jiang Zhe heard some rumors.” Nan Xing couldn’t understand why his brother was acting in such a way.

“It’s not a rumor. Ouyang Li said it herself. This is something dangerous,” Nan Chen corrected.

“Fine. But Ning Ran has been staying here for such a long time, and nothing has happened to her. The bodyguards have been guarding the outside too. I don’t think you need to worry too much.”

“Did the inn hire any new employees these two days? Like the cleaners and those who take care of the other chores.”

After thinking for a while, Nan Xing shook his head. “No. The two cleaners are still the same. Our foods are prepared by the chefs who came with us from Flower City. Other than Lu Jingyuan and her child, there haven’t been any new faces coming to the inn.”

“Then it’s the production team?” Nan Chen mumbled, furrowing his brows even more.

“Chen, what exactly are you worried about?”

“Ouyang Li said something about getting discovered and sneaking in. Based on these key points, it’s highly possible that someone has inserted themselves into Ning Ran’s frequent contacts. Ning Ran spends all of her time at the inn and with the production team. If there isn’t anyone new at the inn, then the target must be hiding among the crew,” Nan Chen analyzed.

“A lot of people are working on the set, and the turnover is high. It’s definitely easier to sneak in compared to an inn. However, there are also security guards around. Who would have the guts to harm Ning Ran in front of so many people?” Nan Xing still felt that Ning Ran would be fine.

Nan Chen kept silent.

Nan Xing had a point. To attack Ning Ran in front of so many people wasn’t easy. The culprit wouldn’t be able to run away too.

Regardless, Ouyang Li must have had her reason for saying that.

“Nan Xing, when do humans turn into ashes?” Nan Chen asked all of a sudden.

Nan Xing gave a wry smile. “You must be too anxious to ask me such a question, Chen! The answer to that is obvious. Humans turn to ashes when they die and are cremated.”

“I mean, other than cremation, what other ways are there?”

“Explosions? I heard they turn people into ashes too. Or maybe a person is burnt to an extreme that the body becomes ashes without needing to be cremated…”

“Oh no!” Nan Chen shouted.

“What is it this time, Chen?”

“Someone is going to set the filming set on fire!”

Nan Xing shook his head. “Come on, pull yourself together! There are fire safety measures on the set.

Let me say it again: the bodyguard is with Ning Ran. Even if there is a fire accident, Qiao Zhan will definitely save her at once.”

After listening to what he said, Nan Chen felt slightly relieved.

However, it didn’t last long. Taking out his phone, he called Qiao Zhan.

“Sir Chen, go ahead,” Qiao Zhan said.

“Did you notice anything strange over there?” Nan Chen asked.

“Rest assured, Sir Chen. I’m guarding this place personally. Nothing strange has happened up till now.

Madam is filming at the moment,” Qiao Zhan said.

“See? I told you it’d be fine. You care about Ning Ran too much. That’s why you’ve become paranoid and worked yourself up.” Nan Xing laughed.
