My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 58



Chapter 58

q

After some time, Zhen Lunlun received a call from Nan Chen, demanding an audience.

“Wow, what a glorious room!” exclaimed Zhen Lunlun the second he walked in.

What he didn’t know was that the office was too luxurious for Nan Chen’s taste, and the person responsible for designing the office – Nan Xing – was transferred to Africa.

Zhen Lunlun turned into an obedient young man the second he saw Nan Chen’s serious and grim expression.

“Uncle, what can I do for you?”

With a horrifying expression, Nan Chen gestured to the tablet he’s holding. The tablet showed a photo of Zhen Lunlun being kissed by the middle-aged woman.

That photo was the third most searched photo on the internet.

The second most searched photo was the photo Zhen Lunlun took with a bandaged patient.

The winner of the ‘competition’ was the photo of Zhen Lunlun walking out of the set while holding Ning Ran’s hand.

The photo was blurry so Ning Ran’s face couldn’t be made out.

Luo Fei took a photo at the time, but she didn’t post it on the internet because she only intended to use it to complain to Nan Chen.

However, someone else on the set also took a photo and shared it with his friend who shared it with their friends, and the photo ended up on the internet.

No one thought that Ning Ran being sick would cause the news of Handsome Zhen, who had not been mentioned in a while, to be featured on the front page again.

The three photos sent three different stories: (1) the Handsome Zhen may be in a relationship; (2) the Handsome Zhen was kissed by a middle-aged woman and; (3) the Handsome Zhen was a down to Earth man who took photos with patients.

The story that the fan was most interested in was that of Handsome Zhen’s possible relationship.

That was also the story that got under Nan Chen’s skin.

On the day of the first screen test, Nan Chen received a seductive letter from Ning Ran through the employees.

Then, Ning Ran and the secondary director made an appearance in the hotel together…

Well, they didn’t show up together, but Nan Chen was convinced that they were together.

This was worse than all the previous incidents because Ning Ran had shifted her attention to his nephew.

That was unforgivable.

Nan Chen pointed at the photo of Zhen Lunlun and Ning Ran holding hands together, and demanded to know what happened with his eyes.

“Uncle, that is Ding Mi, an actress on set. She was sick that day but the director refused to let her go so I had to bring her to the hospital.”

Nan Chen was even angrier.

It’s just like what Luo Fei said! That Ding Mi feigned her illness to attract Zhen Lunlun’s attention!

Moreover, according to Luo Fei, Zhen Lunlun didn’t pay much attention to her at first, but she kept badgering him so he had no choice but to take her to the hospital.

That woman truly was vile. She knew that Zhen Lunlun was a superstar and that a single photo with him would make her famous.

“So what if she’s sick? Why are you so worried about her?” growled Nan Chen.

Zhen Lunlun didn’t dare to tell Nan Chen the truth – that he and Ning Ran met overseas and Ning Ran played video games with him.

If he confessed, Nan Chen would scold him for hanging out with random people, and for wasting his time playing video games.

“We’re working on the same show so we’re colleagues and should look after one another,” answered Zhen Lunlun. His excuse was terrible though.

“The director is responsible for everything that goes on there. Why did you butt in?”

The reply Nan Chen wanted from Zhen Lunlun was that Ning Ran kept badgering him and he had no choice but to comply.

That would match Luo Fei’s report.

But Zhen Lunlun didn’t say that.

“She was too sick, almost like she was poisoned. It was so terrible and so urgent that I had to take her to the hospital.”

That woman is manipulative, Nan Chen thought, she even got Zhen Lunlun to help cover up her lies.

Women like that were just horrifying!

“Keep your distance and stay away from her!”

Nan Chen was too emotionally exhausted so he made his request directly.

“Why? She’s nice, and we’re close friends.” Zhen Lunlun was confused.

Zhen Lunlun’s phrase – ‘we’re close friends’ – shook Nan Chen to the core.

He didn’t realize that his nephew had been brainwashed to this extent. If they’re close friends on the day they met, then what would happen if this went on for months?

Ning Ran’s acting skills were amazing, and if she were to play a role in the Sound of Thunder 2, the show would surely receive a great response.

But he would never risk his nephew falling victim to that vile woman for the show.

Nan Chen pressed a button to summon Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe was there quickly and asked, “Master Chen, Young Master Lun.”

“Call Wang Yan, have him cancel the contract with that woman,” ordered Nan Chen. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Which woman?” Jiang Zhe had no idea what was happening.

“THAT woman!” Nan Chen’s anger had reached a new level.

Jiang Zhe became aware of his mistakes immediately. He couldn’t believe that he made an amateur’s mistake. The woman that Nan Chen was referring to was definitely Ding Mi!

“Yes sir, I’ll do that right away.” Jiang Zhe fished out his phone.

“No, uncle. Why? She’s a great actress and we do great work together!” shouted Zhen Lunlun.

The phrase ‘do great work together’ triggered Nan Chen.

That woman was scary. It only took her one day to completely brainwash his nephew and made him lose his mind.

That must not go on! He must get rid of that woman!

“Why aren’t you dialing?” Nan Chen snapped at Jiang Zhe.

“I’ll call right away.”

Jiang Zhe was a little taken aback. Master Chen had always been cold and calculating and had never lost his temper. What was going on?

Nan Chen wasn’t sure why he was that furious either.

Was that all for Zhen Lunlun?

Zhen Lunlun was a guy so it wasn’t a big deal even if that woman used him to gain a little popularity.

This was an era when everything was quickly forgotten. That incident would be replaced by another one soon enough so it wasn’t an issue at all.

So why was he so angry?

Nan Chen felt a little guilty if he was being honest because he was beginning to notice that he kept losing his cool when it involved Ning Ran.

Zhen Lunlun dashed forward to stop Jiang Zhe from making that call. “No, uncle, you can’t do that to an amazing actress!”

“Young Master Lun, this is official business. You shouldn’t be involved in Mr. Chen’s decision.”

Jiang Zhe had been working for Nan Chen for quite some time, and was, perhaps, the person who knew Nan Chen best. He could tell that Nan Chen was furious so he wanted to warn and rescue Zhen Lunlun.

“This is not an official business, this is personal! Uncle is the corporation’s top executive, and he is abusing his powers to bully an actress. How is that official business?”

“If it is, then tell me. Which rule did Ding Mi break?” “Why is she getting fired for being sick?”

“I don’t understand why my uncle is so angry. Are you being misled by some hooligans?” said Zhen Lunlun loudly.

Ever since he was a kid, Zhen Lunlun had always been afraid of Nan Chen.

But he’s going all out for Ning Ran.

His friendship with Ning Ran was not something anyone else could easily understand. Ning Ran was the only friend he had when he was living abroad and was the only person who was brave enough to lay a hand on him.

No one else could understand it, but Zhen Lunlun knew that he would do anything for Ning Ran.

Nan Chen was shocked because Zhen Lunlun had never gone after him like that before.

What kind of magic did that woman possess? How did she drive Zhen Lunlun that insane?
