My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

Chapter 1016

Chapter 1016 Do You Really Remember Me

Although Nan Chen might not have all the answers, he managed to find someone to guide Nan Xing. That person was none other than Ning Ran.

Knowing that Ning Ran was Lu Jingyuan's best friend, Nan Chen was confident she understood Lu Jingyuan well. With Ning Ran's insights and ideas, Nan Xing would likely have a higher chance of succeeding.

Nan Xing remained doubtful. It was the first time in his life that he felt his brother wasn't really reliable.

Before the kids could finish their drawings, Ning Ran and Lu Jingyuan arrived home, bringing a sense of relief to Nan Xing. If they had stayed outside any longer, he feared the kids would drive him crazy with their constant commotion.

When Ning Ran saw the mess in the house, she could guess what Nan Xing had gone through.

She noticed the children focused on their drawings and guessed that it was Nan Chen's idea.

Nan Xing would only challenge the kids, whereas Nan Chen comprehended human nature and knew precisely how to influence others to do things according to his desires.

Ning Ran approached Erbao to see what she had drawn.

Erbao gestured for her mother not to interrupt as she was aiming for the grand prize.

Ning Ran chuckled and then turned to Dabao. The little boy had drawn a ship floating in the air with the sun, moon, and stars surrounding it. It resembled an airship.

After around twenty minutes, the kids finally completed their drawings.

Ning Ran noticed that Erbao had drawn a lovely strawberry cake.

Lu Yunxue's drawing depicted a chubby cat that appeared more like a dog due to its size.

Lu Yunbing had sketched a snowy mountain with a bird soaring across it.

The sight of a bird flying over snowy mountains carried a profound meaning, making the drawing even more remarkable.

Clearly, Dabao and Lu Yunxue exhibited greater skill and creativity compared to the other two.

They were talented and far more advanced than their peers.

Erbao hurried to the study to pull her father to the living room. Nan Chen had suggested the competition, so he should naturally be the judge.

Nan Chen carefully examined each drawing before determining the rankings: Dabao and Lu Yunbing both received the special prize, while Erbao and Lu Yunxue both won the first prize.

Everyone was delighted with the results, and Nan Chen's decision proved to be a wise one.

However, Erbao wasn't concerned about the ranking. “Daddy, what about the prizes?”

Nan Chen was taken aback by her question, but he quickly regained his composure and pointed at Nan Xing. “Your Uncle Xing will provide the prizes!”

What? You were the one who suggested the competition. Why should I provide the prizes? I didn't prepare anything for them.

Nan Xing understood that the kids came from affluent families and wouldn't be content with just two candies. Typical prizes wouldn't satisfy their expectations.

Everyone gazed at Nan Xing, wondering what prizes he would provide.

Nan Xing shrugged helplessly. “To be honest, I didn't prepare anything. What do you kids want? I'll buy anything you want for you.”

Despite the seemingly excellent solution, someone expressed their disapproval. “This isn't sincere at all,” Lu Yunbing grumbled.

“Yunbing!” Lu Jingyuan chided her daughter.

In truth, Lu Yunbing didn't care much about the prize she would receive. She simply didn't like Nan Xing.

Her dislike for him stemmed from the belief that he was frivolous, yet he still wanted to court Lu Jingyuan. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

On the contrary, kids like Erbao and Lu Yunxue loved Nan Xing.

Lu Yunbing was more aloof, so she preferred someone like Nan Chen to be her father.

Nan Xing was inwardly upset. I didn't plan the competition, so I couldn't have prepared the prizes! How am I supposed to think of something on the spot? Even if I am sincere, I can't conjure something out of thin air.

Seeing Nan Xing looking pitiful, Ning Ran smiled and came to his aid, knowing he was innocent in this situation. “Uncle Xing has prepared a prize for you, but he wanted to give you a surprise. How about this? Next weekend, he'll take you all to the amusement park. Will that be okay?”

Erbao and Lu Yunxue agreed excitedly, but Lu Yunbing and Dabao remained calm.

Nan Xing bobbed his head. “Yes, I'll bring you all to the amusement park and treat you to all the rides and food!”

Even though he was smiling, bitterness lingered deep down within him. After they tormented me today, I'm on the verge of breaking down. Why do I have to do this again next week? I'd be willing to pay for their trip as long as I don't have to take care of them.

Ning Ran suggested, “Let's frame the kids' drawings today since they created them spontaneously. It'll be meaningful for them to look back on them when they grow up.”

“That will be one of the prizes. We'll let Mr. Nan take care of that,” Lu Jingyuan added.

Nan Xing forced a smile. “Yes, I had intended to do that. Artists, please sign your drawings. I'll frame them later as a cherished memory.”

It was raining heavily in Horington.

As the plane touched down at the military airport, the hatch door was opened, revealing the city lights twinkling not far away. The rain made the scene look particularly dreamy and enchanting.

Lu Tiance's subordinate held up an umbrella. He took it away and held it up above Rong Rong.

Lu Tiance was over one hundred and ninety centimeters tall, while Rong Rong was one hundred and sixty-five centimeters tall. She could walk easily as he held the umbrella above her.

Rong Rong cast a glance at Lu Tiance, who wore a solemn expression. Offering him a gentle smile, she said, “Thank you.”

Lu Tiance didn't reply as he wasn't good at being polite.

A black jeep pulled up, and Lu Tiance's subordinate opened the door. Lu Tiance gestured for Rong Rong to take the back seat while he occupied the passenger seat.

However, his subordinate halted him. “As per the rules, you should sit in the back seat.”

There was a rule in place due to safety concerns. Sitting in the back seat was considered safer in case of an accident, as those in the front seats faced a higher risk of injury.

Additionally, in the event of a shooting, occupants in the front seats were more vulnerable to being targeted.

Lu Tiance was an influential man, and his safety was of utmost importance.

Lu Tiance turned over his shoulder to look at Rong Rong.

Rong Rong felt awkward and thought he didn't want to share the back seat with her. “I'm sorry. Why don't we exchange seats?”

Lu Tiance shook his head and stepped out of the car to sit in the back seat beside Rong Rong. However, he maintained a distance from her, creating some space between them.

When the car engine was started, Lu Tiance leaned over to fasten the seat belt for Rong Rong.

Rong Rong gave him a grateful look, taking in his defined features, thick brows, and icy aura.

Suddenly, she recalled that he bore a resemblance to a famous superstar, but he exuded a more rugged and manly aura.

Despite noticing that Rong Rong was staring at him, Lu Tiance didn't respond.

“Madam, what is your address?” the driver asked.

“Fork University on Haden Street,” Lu Tiance replied.

Rong Rong was startled. “You know which university I'm studying at?”

“You boarded my plane, so my subordinates needed to investigate your background beforehand. I apologize for any inconvenience. Regardless of who travels on my plane, this procedure is mandatory,” Lu Tiance explained sincerely.

Rong Rong gave him an understanding smile.

Her educational background was quite different from the rest. Many people would study locally before going overseas to further their studies.

However, on the contrary, she studied overseas before returning to the country to study here.

She had no idea she would run into Lu Tiance upon flying back.

“Do you not remember me?” Rong Rong suddenly asked.

Lu Tiance's expression remained calm. “You looked familiar, but I couldn't remember anything. After they ran a background investigation on you, I remembered who you are.”

Rong Rong was delighted to hear that. “Do you really remember me?”

“Mm.” Lu Tiance nodded.

Rong Rong's eyes suddenly turned red-rimmed.
