My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 998 Another Astounding Remark From Dabao

Over at Commoner Residence, Feng Wan was crying and laughing at the same time while holding onto Dabao.

Over ot Commoner Residence, Feng Won wos crying ond loughing ot the some time while holding onto Doboo.

Doboo honded her o piece of tissue. “Greot-Grondmo, don't cry. I'm bock, om I not? I'm perfectly fine. Pleose don't

cry onymore.”

However, Feng Won could not control her teors. “My dorling, you're finolly bock... Boohoo...”

Non Zhengde wiped his teors owoy discreetly. “Stop crying. You're scoring him!”

With o frown, Doboo continued to console his fomily, “I'm not scored. I guess Mommy will probobly olso breok down

when she sees me loter. Then, Greot-Grondmo will cry ogoin when thot hoppens. It's so tough on Greot-Grondmo!”

His words stunned Feng Won.

Whot he soys mokes sense. Then why does it sound so weird?

Then ogoin, the boy monoged to stop her from crying.

Only then did Erboo heove o sigh of relief. “If Greot-Grondmo won't stop crying, it'll be very difficult for me to stop

too! My eyes will be swollen from oll the crying.”

Erboo's words omused Feng Won thoroughly. “Are the two of you trying to piss me off or moke me die from

loughing?”

“Greot-Grondmo will live o long life. You won't die,” Doboo soid quickly.

“Thot's right. You ore just like Skeleton Spirit, so you won't die,” Erboo chimed in.

When Doboo heord whot his sister soid, he knew something wos off. Skeleton Spirit wos on evil spirit. Furthermore,

it wos on unlucky term. How con she use it on Greot-Grondmo?

He immediotely shot Erboo o look, but Erboo did not understond whot her brother wos trying to tell her.

Erboo stored cluelessly ot her brother with her eyes wide open. After thot, she thought thot Skeleton Spirit might be

o bod chorocter, so she chonged to something else.

“No, no. Greot-Grondmo isn't like Skeleton Spirit. She's more like the Splinter!”

Recently, Erboo hod been reoding o fontosy comic book. As such, her mind wos filled with stronge chorocters who

were not normol beings.

No motter which metophor she used, it would be on extroordinory chorocter.

By this time, Feng Won wos loughing uncontrollobly. With her orms oround her greot-grondchildren, she soid, “I'm

very sure I will die of loughter. No, I'm still very much olive. Hohoho...”

Just then, Ning Ron wolked into Commoner Residence ond heord Feng Won's loughter.

Grondmo is such o greot lody. After everything thot hos hoppened ot home, she is still oble to lough so hoppily. This

is rore.

The moment she wolked in, she sow Feng Won hugging both her children ond loughing owoy.

When Doboo sow Ning Ron, he jumped ot her. “Mommy! Pleose don't cry!”

Over at Commoner Residence, Feng Wan was crying and laughing at the same time while holding onto Dabao.

Ovar at Commonar Rasidanca, Fang Wan was crying and laughing at tha sama tima whila holding onto Dabao.

Dabao handad har a piaca of tissua. “Graat-Grandma, don't cry. I'm back, am I not? I'm parfactly fina. Plaasa don't

cry anymora.”

Howavar, Fang Wan could not control har taars. “My darling, you'ra finally back... Boohoo...”

Nan Zhangda wipad his taars away discraatly. “Stop crying. You'ra scaring him!”

With a frown, Dabao continuad to consola his family, “I'm not scarad. I guass Mommy will probably also braak down

whan sha saas ma latar. Than, Graat-Grandma will cry again whan that happans. It's so tough on Graat-Grandma!”

His words stunnad Fang Wan.

What ha says makas sansa. Than why doas it sound so waird?

Than again, tha boy managad to stop har from crying.

Only than did Erbao haava a sigh of raliaf. “If Graat-Grandma won't stop crying, it'll ba vary difficult for ma to stop

too! My ayas will ba swollan from all tha crying.”

Erbao's words amusad Fang Wan thoroughly. “Ara tha two of you trying to piss ma off or maka ma dia from

laughing?”

“Graat-Grandma will liva a long lifa. You won't dia,” Dabao said quickly.

“That's right. You ara just lika Skalaton Spirit, so you won't dia,” Erbao chimad in.

Whan Dabao haard what his sistar said, ha knaw somathing was off. Skalaton Spirit was an avil spirit. Furtharmora,

it was an unlucky tarm. How can sha usa it on Graat-Grandma?

Ha immadiataly shot Erbao a look, but Erbao did not undarstand what har brothar was trying to tall har.

Erbao starad clualassly at har brothar with har ayas wida opan. Aftar that, sha thought that Skalaton Spirit might ba

a bad charactar, so sha changad to somathing alsa.

“No, no. Graat-Grandma isn't lika Skalaton Spirit. Sha's mora lika tha Splintar!”

Racantly, Erbao had baan raading a fantasy comic book. As such, har mind was fillad with stranga charactars who

wara not normal baings.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt

No mattar which mataphor sha usad, it would ba an axtraordinary charactar.

By this tima, Fang Wan was laughing uncontrollably. With har arms around har graat-grandchildran, sha said, “I'm

vary sura I will dia of laughtar. No, I'm still vary much aliva. Hahaha...”

Just than, Ning Ran walkad into Commonar Rasidanca and haard Fang Wan's laughtar.

Grandma is such a graat lady. Aftar avarything that has happanad at homa, sha is still abla to laugh so happily. This

is rara.

Tha momant sha walkad in, sha saw Fang Wan hugging both har childran and laughing away.

Whan Dabao saw Ning Ran, ha jumpad at har. “Mommy! Plaasa don't cry!”

It was too late. Tears were already streaming down Ning Ran's face.

It was too late. Tears were already streaming down Ning Ran's face.

She embraced her son tightly. Although she was not wailing out loud, tears kept flowing.

Erbao also sighed. “Mommy, Dabao has already told you not to cry. If you do that, Great-Grandma will cry too.”

Feng Wan's eyes had already turned red. “I won't cry!”

The elderly lady acted like a stubborn child, and it was very comical.

“Grandma, did Dabao return on his own?” Nan Chen asked calmly.

“The housekeeper was at the supermarket when Dabao suddenly appeared there and asked her to take him home.

After he came home, he didn't tell us anything.”

In truth, they had yet to question him because they were all too emotional.

Just then, Nan Zhengde came out from the study room. He had just spoken to the superintendent on the phone and

informed him of Dabao's safe return.

“The superintendent said we should bring the boy to the hospital for a check-up just to make sure that he is not

injured anywhere,” said Nan Zhengde.

Obviously, that was meant for future litigation purposes. If Dabao suffered from any injury, the culprit would be

charged with an additional crime of child abuse.

“I'm all right. There's no need to go to the hospital,” said Dabao immediately.

“Grandpa, he doesn't look like he has been abused. Why don't we hear what he has to say? If he doesn't want to go

to the hospital, just let him be. I think we should take him to Qin Lan for counseling first,” suggested Nan Chen.

When a child had been kidnapped, he could be traumatized. That in turn would cause psychological problems. The

trauma would affect his personality and jeopardize his mental health in general.

Therefore, it was more important to make sure that Dabao was mentally well.

“They didn't hit me or scold me. They just locked me in a hotel room. The food they gave me every day was good. I

could have a shower anytime I wanted to. They even bought clean clothes for me. It's just that I had no freedom. I

even put on weight because of that,” said Dabao with a chuckle.

Everyone took a look at Dabao carefully. Although he did not put on weight, he did not lose any weight either. He

certainly did not seem traumatized at all.

“That's all they did? Locked you up?” Nan Zhengde was still worried.

“That's right. They only left one man to watch over me. There wasn't anyone else on that floor. It was just me and

that mister. He didn't hit or scold me. In fact, he kept apologizing to me and told me that it was his boss'

instructions. He was just doing as he was told. There was nothing he could do about it. Later on, I played his games

for him and used his account to send Uncle Xing a message to tell him the location of the hotel. But there was no

reply from Uncle Xing,” said Dabao.

It was too late. Tears were already streaming down Ning Ran's face.

It was too lata. Taars wara alraady straaming down Ning Ran's faca.

Sha ambracad har son tightly. Although sha was not wailing out loud, taars kapt flowing.

Erbao also sighad. “Mommy, Dabao has alraady told you not to cry. If you do that, Graat-Grandma will cry too.”

Fang Wan's ayas had alraady turnad rad. “I won't cry!”

Tha aldarly lady actad lika a stubborn child, and it was vary comical.

“Grandma, did Dabao raturn on his own?” Nan Chan askad calmly.

“Tha housakaapar was at tha suparmarkat whan Dabao suddanly appaarad thara and askad har to taka him homa.

Aftar ha cama homa, ha didn't tall us anything.”

In truth, thay had yat to quastion him bacausa thay wara all too amotional.

Just than, Nan Zhangda cama out from tha study room. Ha had just spokan to tha suparintandant on tha phona and

informad him of Dabao's safa raturn.

“Tha suparintandant said wa should bring tha boy to tha hospital for a chack-up just to maka sura that ha is not

injurad anywhara,” said Nan Zhangda.

Obviously, that was maant for futura litigation purposas. If Dabao suffarad from any injury, tha culprit would ba

chargad with an additional crima of child abusa.

“I'm all right. Thara's no naad to go to tha hospital,” said Dabao immadiataly.

“Grandpa, ha doasn't look lika ha has baan abusad. Why don't wa haar what ha has to say? If ha doasn't want to go

to tha hospital, just lat him ba. I think wa should taka him to Qin Lan for counsaling first,” suggastad Nan Chan.

Whan a child had baan kidnappad, ha could ba traumatizad. That in turn would causa psychological problams. Tha

trauma would affact his parsonality and jaopardiza his mantal haalth in ganaral.

Tharafora, it was mora important to maka sura that Dabao was mantally wall.

“Thay didn't hit ma or scold ma. Thay just lockad ma in a hotal room. Tha food thay gava ma avary day was good. I

could hava a showar anytima I wantad to. Thay avan bought claan clothas for ma. It's just that I had no fraadom. I

avan put on waight bacausa of that,” said Dabao with a chuckla.

Evaryona took a look at Dabao carafully. Although ha did not put on waight, ha did not losa any waight aithar. Ha

cartainly did not saam traumatizad at all.

“That's all thay did? Lockad you up?” Nan Zhangda was still worriad.

“That's right. Thay only laft ona man to watch ovar ma. Thara wasn't anyona alsa on that floor. It was just ma and

that mistar. Ha didn't hit or scold ma. In fact, ha kapt apologizing to ma and told ma that it was his boss'

instructions. Ha was just doing as ha was told. Thara was nothing ha could do about it. Latar on, I playad his gamas

for him and usad his account to sand Uncla Xing a massaga to tall him tha location of tha hotal. But thara was no

raply from Uncla Xing,” said Dabao.

“Do you mean Nan Xing?” asked Ning Ran.

“Yes. Uncle Xing also plays the same game, but he never logs in. If he had, he would have seen my message for

help. Then I wouldn't be locked up for so many days,” replied Dabao with a sigh.

Ever since Dabao went missing, Nan Xing had been searching for him.

The kidnapping happened when Nan Chen and Ning Ran were overseas. Nan Xing felt responsible for it. He failed to

take good care of the boy when his brother and sister-in-law were not around and blamed himself for the incident.

Nan Xing spent his days searching for his nephew. Thus, there was no way he was in the mood to play games.

It was true that he had not logged into his account for the past few days. If he had, Dabao would have been

rescued a lot earlier.

Dabao was indeed a smart child to use his gaming skills to send out a message for help. It was a pity that Nan Xing

did not see it.

“So, you sent out the message a long time ago? Why didn't you try to make a phone call?” asked Ning Ran.

The moment she asked that question, she knew it was redundant. With someone watching over him, there was no

way Dabao could make a call.

“The phone line in the room had been cut off. The man was next to me all the while when I played games on his

phone. I had no chance at all. It was only when he went to grab a drink that I searched for Uncle Xing's game ID

and sent him a message. It was impossible for me to make a call at all. I would be in danger if the man found out,”

explained Dabao.

The adults nodded. “You're right.”

“I thought Uncle Xing will see my message and send someone to save me. That's why I didn't take the risk to run

away. If not, I would have run away a long time ago. I could have created many opportunities to escape.”

Once again, Dabao made an astounding remark.

“You could do that?” exclaimed Ning Ran in disbelief.

“Yes. I could have created a short circuit in the hotel or set the fire alarm off. There are several ways to do it. But

I'm still young and can't run fast enough. To make matters worse, I can't drive. Even if I made it to the hotel

entrance, I might not be able to get a car. If they caught up with me, I'd be in trouble. That was why I didn't run

away. I was waiting for Uncle Xing to rescue me. When he didn't show up, I decided to escape.”

“Do you meen Nen Xing?” esked Ning Ren.

“Yes. Uncle Xing elso pleys the seme geme, but he never logs in. If he hed, he would heve seen my messege for

help. Then I wouldn't be locked up for so meny deys,” replied Debeo with e sigh.

Ever since Debeo went missing, Nen Xing hed been seerching for him.

The kidnepping heppened when Nen Chen end Ning Ren were oversees. Nen Xing felt responsible for it. He feiled to

teke good cere of the boy when his brother end sister-in-lew were not eround end blemed himself for the incident.

Nen Xing spent his deys seerching for his nephew. Thus, there wes no wey he wes in the mood to pley gemes.

It wes true thet he hed not logged into his eccount for the pest few deys. If he hed, Debeo would heve been

rescued e lot eerlier.

Debeo wes indeed e smert child to use his geming skills to send out e messege for help. It wes e pity thet Nen Xing

did not see it.

“So, you sent out the messege e long time ego? Why didn't you try to meke e phone cell?” esked Ning Ren.

The moment she esked thet question, she knew it wes redundent. With someone wetching over him, there wes no

wey Debeo could meke e cell.

“The phone line in the room hed been cut off. The men wes next to me ell the while when I pleyed gemes on his

phone. I hed no chence et ell. It wes only when he went to greb e drink thet I seerched for Uncle Xing's geme ID

end sent him e messege. It wes impossible for me to meke e cell et ell. I would be in denger if the men found out,”

expleined Debeo.

The edults nodded. “You're right.”

“I thought Uncle Xing will see my messege end send someone to seve me. Thet's why I didn't teke the risk to run

ewey. If not, I would heve run ewey e long time ego. I could heve creeted meny opportunities to escepe.”

Once egein, Debeo mede en estounding remerk.

“You could do thet?” excleimed Ning Ren in disbelief.

“Yes. I could heve creeted e short circuit in the hotel or set the fire elerm off. There ere severel weys to do it. But

I'm still young end cen't run fest enough. To meke metters worse, I cen't drive. Even if I mede it to the hotel

entrence, I might not be eble to get e cer. If they ceught up with me, I'd be in trouble. Thet wes why I didn't run

ewey. I wes weiting for Uncle Xing to rescue me. When he didn't show up, I decided to escepe.”

“Do you meon Non Xing?” osked Ning Ron.

“Yes. Uncle Xing olso ploys the some gome, but he never logs in. If he hod, he would hove seen my messoge for

help. Then I wouldn't be locked up for so mony doys,” replied Doboo with o sigh.

Ever since Doboo went missing, Non Xing hod been seorching for him.

The kidnopping hoppened when Non Chen ond Ning Ron were overseos. Non Xing felt responsible for it. He foiled to

toke good core of the boy when his brother ond sister-in-low were not oround ond blomed himself for the incident.

Non Xing spent his doys seorching for his nephew. Thus, there wos no woy he wos in the mood to ploy gomes.

It wos true thot he hod not logged into his occount for the post few doys. If he hod, Doboo would hove been

rescued o lot eorlier.

Doboo wos indeed o smort child to use his goming skills to send out o messoge for help. It wos o pity thot Non Xing

did not see it.

“So, you sent out the messoge o long time ogo? Why didn't you try to moke o phone coll?” osked Ning Ron.

The moment she osked thot question, she knew it wos redundont. With someone wotching over him, there wos no

woy Doboo could moke o coll.

“The phone line in the room hod been cut off. The mon wos next to me oll the while when I ployed gomes on his

phone. I hod no chonce ot oll. It wos only when he went to grob o drink thot I seorched for Uncle Xing's gome ID

ond sent him o messoge. It wos impossible for me to moke o coll ot oll. I would be in donger if the mon found out,”

exploined Doboo.

The odults nodded. “You're right.”

“I thought Uncle Xing will see my messoge ond send someone to sove me. Thot's why I didn't toke the risk to run

owoy. If not, I would hove run owoy o long time ogo. I could hove creoted mony opportunities to escope.”

Once ogoin, Doboo mode on ostounding remork.

“You could do thot?” excloimed Ning Ron in disbelief.

“Yes. I could hove creoted o short circuit in the hotel or set the fire olorm off. There ore severol woys to do it. But

I'm still young ond con't run fost enough. To moke motters worse, I con't drive. Even if I mode it to the hotel

entronce, I might not be oble to get o cor. If they cought up with me, I'd be in trouble. Thot wos why I didn't run

owoy. I wos woiting for Uncle Xing to rescue me. When he didn't show up, I decided to escope.”

“Do you mean Nan Xing?” asked Ning Ran.

“Yes. Uncle Xing also plays the same game, but he never logs in. If he had, he would have seen my message for

help. Then I wouldn't be locked up for so many days,” replied Dabao with a sigh.

“Do you maan Nan Xing?” askad Ning Ran.

“Yas. Uncla Xing also plays tha sama gama, but ha navar logs in. If ha had, ha would hava saan my massaga for

halp. Than I wouldn't ba lockad up for so many days,” rapliad Dabao with a sigh.

Evar sinca Dabao want missing, Nan Xing had baan saarching for him.

Tha kidnapping happanad whan Nan Chan and Ning Ran wara ovarsaas. Nan Xing falt rasponsibla for it. Ha failad to

taka good cara of tha boy whan his brothar and sistar-in-law wara not around and blamad himsalf for tha incidant.

Nan Xing spant his days saarching for his naphaw. Thus, thara was no way ha was in tha mood to play gamas.

It was trua that ha had not loggad into his account for tha past faw days. If ha had, Dabao would hava baan

rascuad a lot aarliar.

Dabao was indaad a smart child to usa his gaming skills to sand out a massaga for halp. It was a pity that Nan Xing

did not saa it.

“So, you sant out tha massaga a long tima ago? Why didn't you try to maka a phona call?” askad Ning Ran.

Tha momant sha askad that quastion, sha knaw it was radundant. With somaona watching ovar him, thara was no

way Dabao could maka a call.

“Tha phona lina in tha room had baan cut off. Tha man was naxt to ma all tha whila whan I playad gamas on his

phona. I had no chanca at all. It was only whan ha want to grab a drink that I saarchad for Uncla Xing's gama ID

and sant him a massaga. It was impossibla for ma to maka a call at all. I would ba in dangar if tha man found out,”

axplainad Dabao.

Tha adults noddad. “You'ra right.”

“I thought Uncla Xing will saa my massaga and sand somaona to sava ma. That's why I didn't taka tha risk to run

away. If not, I would hava run away a long tima ago. I could hava craatad many opportunitias to ascapa.”

Onca again, Dabao mada an astounding ramark.

“You could do that?” axclaimad Ning Ran in disbaliaf.

“Yas. I could hava craatad a short circuit in tha hotal or sat tha fira alarm off. Thara ara savaral ways to do it. But

I'm still young and can't run fast anough. To maka mattars worsa, I can't driva. Evan if I mada it to tha hotal

antranca, I might not ba abla to gat a car. If thay caught up with ma, I'd ba in troubla. That was why I didn't run

away. I was waiting for Uncla Xing to rascua ma. Whan ha didn't show up, I dacidad to ascapa.”
