My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 918

Chapter 918 A Trustworthy Person

Ning Ran and the rest didn't go back to the hotel. Instead, they went to a nearby stadium by car to get into a helicopter Nan Chen had sent over.

Ning Ran only arrived at Raining Pavilion in Flower City at two in the morning.

Raining Pavilion had an intelligent home system, so the door opened itself silently as soon as Ning Ran arrived.

Afraid to wake the kids up, Ning Ran tiptoed from the main entrance to her bedroom stealthily.

When she opened the door to her bedroom, however, she saw that although the lights weren't switched on, there was a source of light coming from the bed. Apparently, Nan Chen was working on his laptop.

“Why are you still awake?” Ning Ran whispered before closing the door gently.

In response, Nan Chen switched on the lights and beckoned her over.

After that, he looked closely at Ning Ran's face and asked, “Did you suffer any injuries?”

“None! It's not even swollen. Don't worry.”

“Did you strike back?”

Ning Ran sighed and answered, “Yes. She's actually just a young and immature girl. Actually, I didn't want to have a go at her because I didn't think it was necessary.”

“Yes, it's not.” Nan Chen nodded.

Ning Ran was stumped. Why did he suddenly change his stance?

“That's not what you said earlier! If that was the case, we didn't need to quit the show. This incident is going to have a negative impact.” Ning Ran sighed again.

“Well, I'm only saying that because you've already returned her the favor,” Nan Chen uttered flatly.

“Are you saying that if I didn't strike back, I should keep picking fights with her?” Ning Ran frowned.

“Of course! How could I let someone bully the woman I love?”

“I see. Your pride is more important.” Ning Ran laughed.

Nan Chen arched a brow. “Do you want to keep up with this?”

“No. I was merely joking. You should sleep now. It's late! I'm going to sleep after washing my face.”

With that, Nan Chen switched off the lights.

After washing her face, Ning Ran lay down next to Nan Chen.

A moment later, Nan Chen wrapped his arms around her and started kissing her.

“Hey, stop it. It's late,” Ning Ran uttered softly.

Nan Chen obliged.

The couple fell asleep in no time due to how much they had gone through during the day.

The next morning, the bright sunlight seeped into the room through the gaps in the curtains. Ning Ran woke up, turned to the other side, and saw Nan Chen fast asleep.

With his long eyelashes and tightly pursed lips, Nan Chen was exuding a frosty aura even when he was asleep.

Ning Ran wanted to touch his eyelashes, but she was afraid to wake him up. I should let him sleep. He's dog-tired.

With that in mind, she lay back down on the bed and read the news on her phone.

Early that morning, the official Weibo account of the show announced that Ning Ran had left the show, but the show was to continue.

In other words, the show on that day would only feature Ye Meng and Liyi Danfeng.

Although the announcement was made in the early hours, a lot of fans commented on the post.

@34543!: What's going on? Mi is so funny and interesting! Why did she leave?

Alibaba4040: Perhaps she got angry because Ye Meng and Liyi Danfeng bullied her.

Woshitianwang2212: Liyi Danfeng said that Ding Mi assaulted her and left the show last night.

When Ning Ran saw that comment, she quickly checked Liyi Danfeng's official Weibo account.

True enough, Liyi Danfeng was playing the victim on Weibo. She said she had a conflict with Ning Ran, and Ning Ran hit her before leaving the show in the middle of the night.

The official account of the show didn't comment much on the post. Instead of siding with Ning Ran, the official account of the show commented a few words of encouragement below Liyi Danfeng's post.

Although it was a simple gesture, it ultimately legitimized Liyi Danfeng's claim.

Besides, it was clear that the production team of the show was on Liyi Danfeng's side.

It was understandable, though. They didn't want to cross Star Entertainment and Nan Chen, but they had to carry on with the show.

Since Ning Ran had left, only Liyi Danfeng remained on the show.

If the show were to support Ning Ran, Liyi Danfeng would leave, and the show had to be ended prematurely.

Furthermore, Ning Ran may be capable, but she wasn't an idol in the fans' eyes.

Despite having her own fanbase, Ning Ran had fewer fans compared to Liyi Danfeng. After all, Liyi Danfeng was an idol who attracted a lot of viewership.

Moreover, the show was popular among the younger crowd, so publicity was important.

Due to those factors, the show would obviously support Liyi Danfeng because she could bring more publicity to the show.

Upon seeing that, Ning Ran sneered inwardly and checked Ye Meng's Weibo account.

Ye Meng wrote on her account: It's such a shame.

Needless to say, Ye Meng was smart to not take sides. She merely expressed her disappointment, but she was vague in her words. No one knew exactly who she was feeling sorry for.

From the beginning, her plan was to let Ning Ran and Liyi Danfeng fight it out among themselves, and it seemed as though she had gotten what she wanted.

“What are you looking at?” Suddenly, a hoarse voice rang out.

Ning Ran turned around and saw Nan Chen looking at her with his hand supporting his chin.

However, he was staring at the collar of her nightgown.

Ning Ran immediately pulled her collar up in response.

Nan Chen then reached out his hand to lower the collar. “You look better like this.”

Ning Ran blushed and said, “Cut it out. I have something important to tell you. Liyi Danfeng is slandering me. She said I hit her, and her fans are now criticizing me.”

Nan Chen stretched his back and replied, “Her fans are mostly minors without the capability to think straight. It's no surprise they're attacking you.”

“I know. That was why I didn't want to go after her, but you—”

“Are you blaming me?” Nan Chen questioned coldly.

“Not really, but what should we do now?”

“Don't worry about such things. Wang Xiaoou and the public relations team will sort things out for you,” Nan Chen uttered casually.

“How are they going to sort things out? The netizens are saying that I've crossed the line. Not only did I hit someone, but I also left the show. No one's going to believe a word I say,” Ning Ran stated in despair.

These sorts of conflicts were normal in the entertainment industry, but since her movie was about to release, such negative news would only complicate things.

“If you explain yourself now, no one's going to believe you. If Ye Meng and the production team of the show were to speak up for you, the public will believe them.” Nan Chen remained unconcerned.

Ning Ran grew agitated upon hearing that. “Yet, the production team is siding with Liyi Danfeng, and Ye Meng is unperturbed.”

“I know.” Nan Chen grabbed Ning Ran's hand and fiddled with her fingers.

“You knew?”

“Well, it was an easy guess. The show has to go on, so if the production team supports you publicly, they'll offend Liyi Danfeng. If Liyi Danfeng leaves the show as well, how are they going to keep filming? If they stop filming, they'll get questioned by the investors. As for Ye Meng, she benefits from the fight between you and Liyi Danfeng. Therefore, why would she take sides?” Nan Chen uttered nonchalantly and motioned for her to continue sleeping.

Unfortunately, Ning Ran was frustrated, and she was in no mood to sleep. “So? Why would Ye Meng and the production team speak up for me?”

“Without you, no one's going to watch the show, and it's bound to end early today. Once they're done with the show today, they'll immediately come around. Trust me.” Nan Chen seemed very confident.

Ning Ran was convinced. After all, he was someone who could be trusted.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
