My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 850 Boosted Ego

When Nan Chen got over there after rushing, Dabao and Erbao had already recovered from the shock.

Although it was a sudden incident, everything was actually under control.

The bodyguards that Qiao Zhan had arranged around the school were able to effectively protect Ning Ran and the

kids' safety at the most critical moment.

Nan Chen caressed Ning Ran's face with both hands. “Did you get hurt? Are you sure you're okay?”

Since Ning Ran rarely experienced someone touching her face like that, she was feeling a little awkward. Moreover,

Qiao Zhan was just beside them, so she felt shy.

“I'm fine, really! The motorcycle was struck when it was a distance away from us. It didn't even come in contact

with me. Don't worry.”

Ning Ran stretched her arms and legs and leaped up to prove she was unharmed.

Still, Nan Chen was worried. “Let's go to the hospital for a checkup, just to be safe.”

“I'm not injured. There's no need for a checkup. You should go back to your business. You don't have to mind me.

I'm all right,” Ning Ran insisted.

“Are you sure you don't need a checkup?” Nan Chen was clearly still worried about her.

“Yes, that really isn't necessary. I'm not hurt, so having a checkup is merely a waste of time and effort.”

Hearing that, Nan Chen nodded. “Are my two Darlings okay? Get someone to provide them with counseling services

later. They're probably terrified.”

“Sure, I'll make the arrangements,” Qiao Zhan replied.

“I'm going to the company. Jiang Zhe will cooperate with you to handle the rest of the matters,” Nan Chen said to

Qiao Zhan.

Ning Ran's heart skipped a beat when she heard that. Nan Chen rushed over because of what happened. And now,

he's returning to the company right after checking on us. There must be something urgent at the company too!

While walking out with Nan Chen, Ning Ran asked, “Do you have some urgent matter to attend to? What's wrong?”

Nan Chen paused in his tracks. “Yeah. Something happened, but I'll take care of it. You should attend counseling

sessions with the kids. I'll ask Qiao Zhan to contact Qin Lan. She's a professional psychological counselor. She can

help the kids to handle the psychological problem caused by this incident.”

Ning Ran responded softly, “But I feel like something serious must have happened to the company. Otherwise, you

wouldn't be leaving in such a hurry. If you don't tell me about it, I'll be worried and feel more uneasy.”

Nan Chen remained silent, seemingly hesitating.

Judging from his reaction, Ning Ran was even more convinced it was a major issue.

“Fine, don't talk about it if you don't want to. I'm not asking out of curiosity. I just don't want to keep worrying about

it,” Ning Ran explained.

Nan Chen had a grim look on his face. “Something happened at a branch overseas. One of the in-house finance

officers confessed to accounting fraud to the police, so I have to organize an investigation to find out what exactly

happened.”

“A confession of accounting fraud? Didn't the third-party agency audit the accounts? Why is there accounting

fraud?” Ning Ran questioned in shock.

Nan Chen claimed, “For now, I'm not sure whether that branch has indeed committed accounting fraud or someone

tampered with the accounts during the assessment without anybody realizing the problem. However, I'm sure this

must be a conspiracy. The same group of people, who attacked the company previously, is undoubtedly behind this

matter. Hence, I can't allow it to continue to escalate. I'm ending the conversation here. That's pretty much what

happened. I shall take my leave now, and I'll be back after I've dealt with it.”

“Go on with your work. Don't worry about us. I'll take good care of the children. Also, I believe you can figure

everything out. That finance officer who confessed to the matter must be a spy planted by someone in Nanshi

Corporation to stir up trouble at a critical juncture.”

Nan Chen nodded when he heard Ning Ran's words. “I'll get to the bottom of what went wrong. You can rest

assured.”

At seven that night, Qin Lan finally completed the psychotherapy with the two kids, and Ning Ran could bring the

duo home.

In truth, Ning Ran wanted to seek advice from Qin Lan on some personal issues as she had no idea why she hated it

and even felt like puking whenever Nan Chen tried to touch her.

Back then, Nan Chen had also mentioned that it might be a psychological problem and suggested Ning Ran consult

Qin Lan, but Ning Ran rejected his offer.

Ning Ran did not exactly know why she declined. One reason might be that she felt the relationship between Qin

Lan and Nan Chen was anything but ordinary because the duo was best friends, which made her feel somewhat

repulsed by Qin Lan.

And because of such feelings, she didn't want to let Qin Lan know about her secret. Yet, if Qin Lan were to assist

Ning Ran, she needed to know the latter's secret. Thus, that matter dragged on until now without a conclusion.

On top of that, Ning Ran was too embarrassed to speak about that issue.

It was not easy to discuss such things with her closest friend, let alone with an unfamiliar doctor.

Despite that, Ning Ran had the urge to inquire Qin Lan about it when she visited the latter's clinic that day.

Ultimately, she still failed to raise the issue and only thanked Qin Lan for helping the children.

“Don't you have any questions to ask me? Actually, it's especially necessary for adults to undergo psychological

counseling. Nan Chen also comes here frequently. We've been friends for years,” Qin Lan said with a smile.

Her eyes became crescent-shaped from the smile, and she looked good like that.

Nevertheless, Ning Ran felt slightly displeased because Qin Lan addressed Nan Chen by his name.

After all, everyone in Flower City would refer to Nan Chen as Sir Chen, Mr. Chen, or Mr. Nan.

Only a few people could call Nan Chen by his name.

Even Ning Ran didn't dare to address Nan Chen by his name in public. Yet, Qin Lan, who was only a psychologist,

kept calling Nan Chen's name, causing Ning Ran to be annoyed.

Suddenly, Qin Lan queried, “Do you have a problem with me?”

Ning Ran was taken aback by her question. She smiled and answered, “Of course not! I have to thank you for

helping my children.”

“Your microexpressions tell me that you have issues with me. Do you disdain me for charging a high consultation

fee, or do you think I'm not professional enough? Or could it be other reasons?” Qin Lan chuckled.

Ning Ran was stunned. She figured out I was displeased by just looking at my facial expression. That alone is

enough to prove that she's extraordinarily professional!

“No, it's really nothing. I'm just wondering what kind of problems Nan Chen faces for him to require you to assist

him,” Ning Ran responded with a smile.

Qin Lan stroked her hair before asking, “Didn't he tell you about it?”

“No, we've never discussed this before.”

As Ning Ran spoke, she felt defeated again. Nan Chen talks about everything with Qin Lan, but not me. This can

only mean that I'm not close enough to Nan Chen.

Therefore, she hurriedly added, “I usually don't ask him about his personal issues. We respect each other, so if he

doesn't question me, I won't do so either.”

“Hahaha!” Qin Lan burst out laughing. “You're an interesting person. To tell you the truth, his problem was solved

upon meeting you.”

“Huh?” Ning Ran became even more confused. “What exactly was his problem?”

“In the past, he didn't know how to love someone and didn't have feelings for people. Many girls pursued him, but

he couldn't fall in love with them. I once questioned his sexual orientation. But the truth is he isn't into guys either

and is even disgusted to be with them. Hence, the problem he encountered was that he had no idea how to love

someone, and he disliked everyone. But ever since you appeared, he seems to have overcome this problem. He

claimed that seeing you makes his heart flutter, and he can clearly feel he's attracted to you and has the urge to

care for you.”

After saying that, Qin Lan gazed at Ning Ran.

Meanwhile, Ning Ran could feel her heart thumping. She had to admit that Qin Lan's words boosted her ego.
