Celebrity Girl Is My Wife Chapter 265


    “I’m not here for work. I’m here to… shop.”


    Manager Luo and his team members exchanged doubtful nces at each other. None of them believed


    Nan Chen’s words. Even the senior managers needed to arrange for prior appointments to report their


    work to Nan Chen, due to Nan Chen’s busy schedule.


    How is it possible that such a busy man will do his shopping personally?


    Hence, Manager Luo and his team did not believe Nan Chen, thinking their boss was here for an


    incognito visit. “Sir Chen, please let us know if you have any instructions for us. We will make the


    changes immediately.”


    “It is okay. You can go off first.” Nan Chen waved his hand dismissively. I seldom have the chance to do


    grocery shopping with the two kids. They better not spoil my mood.


    But Manager Luo and his team were not on the same wavelength as Nan Chen. Our boss arrives out of


    the blue. How can we return to our office and pretend he isn’t here? It’s simply impossible!


    Therefore, the senior executives hung around Nan Chen at his heels, in the supermarket. Not only


    were Nan Chen and Ning Ran unhappy with their actions, but even the kids were also displeased


    too. How can we shop leisurely when someone is gawking at us?


    However, Nan Chen was not one to holler at others when he was displeased. He pulled a long face and


    stared sharply at Manager Luo and his team.


    However, this only increased their sense of trepidation as they mistook Nan Chen for being displeased


    over their mismanagement of the supermarket.


    Finally, Ning Ran could not take it anymore and believed she must handle it herself. Otherwise, the


    whole situation would only worsen.


    Thus, she walked over to Manager Luo.


    Manager Luo was not certain of Ning Ran’s status as he had not received news that his boss was


    married. He wanted to greet her as ‘Madam’ but worried he might address her wrongly, so he nodded


    with a smile on his face, “Hi, what do you need? We will endeavor to meet them.”


    “Stop following us. Sir Chen is unhappy,” warned Ning Ran in a low voice.


    “Huh?”


    “Do you like a bunch of people following you when you are doing your grocery shopping?”


    “This…”


    “He is not here for an inspection. He’s only here to buy some ingredients to cook dinner for the kids.


    Stop creating a scene. It will only add on to everyone’s anxiety and difort. What is the point?”


    “Okay, sorry to disturb you. Please inform any of the staff here should you need any help. We will serve


    you to the best we can.” Manager Luo wiped away the sweat on his face.


    “Okay, please stop following us then.”


    Finally, Manager Luo and his team walked off and left them alone.


    Nan Chen heaved a deep sigh of relief and looked at Ning Ran approvingly. This woman is rather good


    atmunication.


    They continued shopping in the supermarket. When they arrived at the snacks section, Erbao was


    even more excited and wanted everything. Nan Chen met all her requests, doing his best to satisfy


    Erbao.


    When it was time to foot the bill, Nan Chen passed Ning Ran a credit card and asked her to make


    payment.


    Of course, Ning Ran did not stand on ceremony. I don’t have any money on me anyway so Poker Face


    must be the one paying.


    They bought three big bags of groceries. The supermarket’s employees offered to deliver the groceries


    to Nan Chen’s house, but Nan Chen rejected them. In the end, the employees helped them to carry the


    groceries and put them into the car.


    Without consulting Ning Ran, Nan Chen drove to her residence – the vi in the Red Maple City.


    It was the two kids’ first visit to the vi in the Red Maple City. They screamed in exhration,


    “Mommy’s new house! We are here!”


    After putting all the groceries into the house, Nan Chen went into the kitchen and stood there, looking


    lost. He looked at Ning Ran pleadingly.


    Ning Ran snickered, “Doesn’t Sir Chen intend to cook dinner? Please start now.”


    “Where should I start?”


    “You don’t even know where to start? How will you make dinner for us then?”


    “The recipe is avable online.”


    Ning Ran finally understood him. His confidence in his culinary skills is derived solely from the


    recipes avable online. He intends to follow the culinary video, step-by-step, to make dinner. But the


    video does not teach its viewers the preparatory steps before cooking. For example, it asks one to


    clean and cut the vegetables, but it does not teach one how to do so. No wonder he looks so lost.


    “Sir Chen, why don’t you go out first? We may need to wait till tomorrow if you are to cook dinner for us.


    I can starve but not the kids. Stop giving me trouble and go somewhere else. I can do it myself.”


    Ning Ran put on the gloves, ready to start the dinner preparations.


    A look of frustration crossed Nan Chen’s face. I am omnipotent in the business world. How can I be


    defeated in this mere kitchen?


    Nan Chen’s prideful ego did not allow him to leave the kitchen with his head down. Instead, he stood


    on the side and looked at Ning Ran as she busied herself in the kitchen.


    Thankfully, the open-concept kitchen in the vi was big enough to amodate Nan Chen without


    him being in Ning Ran’s way.


    “You’re good,” Nan Chen said suddenly.


    Ning Ran was busy and did not catch what he said, “What?”


    “You’re good at domestic chores,” repeated Nan Chen.


    Ning Ran smiled. Is this the first time Poker Facepliments me? Also, isn’t it ironic that he praises


    me for being good at domestic chores?


    “Are you saying I’m a vige girl?” Ning Ran asked casually.


    “Yes,” agreed Nan Chen.


    His answer infuriated her. I can diss myself but not you! If not for someone causing my mother’s death,


    my family fortunes would not have declined, and I would still be a rich, young mistress!


    “Do you think you are better than others, just because you don’t know how to do domestic chores?”


    Ning Ran red at Nan Chen, holding a clove of garlic and pointing it at him.


    Nan Chen was perplexed at her sudden outburst of anger. Is she thinking of attacking me with that


    clove of garlic? It has such an overwhelming smell. Wouldn’t it be embarrassing if it hits my face?


    Thinking of this, he took a few steps backwards quietly.


    “Why do you say I am a vige girl?”


    “You said it yourself,” replied Nan Chen indifferently.


    “Forget it. I am magnanimous and will not hold it against you.” Ning Ran put down the clove of garlic in


    her hand and continued cooking.


    Nan Chen continued observing Ning Ran in silence. It was apparent to him that Ning Ran was an


    experienced cook as she had first poured the cooking oil, followed by the vegetables into the frying pan


    deftly. After tossing the pan a few times, the aroma of food began to waft through the air.


    Nan Chen was stupefied by the sight before him.


    He had eaten a lot of delicious food but never had he once pay attention to the process involved.


    So the process involved in producing such sumptuous dishes is so wonderful. It is like a project. Every


    step taken must be precise and is equally important. No wonder Laozi teaches that the principle in


    governing a country is simr to that of cooking. Every step that is taken in cooking indeed contains


    great knowledge.


    “Come over here and take the dishes out. Why are you standing there in a daze? Do you expect me to


    serve you?” Ning Ran ordered.


    Nan Chen’s face clouded with displeasure at being ordered around, but he suppressed his anger.

    Anyway, this woman is always bad-mannered. I shall not hold it against her. Otherwise, we will not be


    able to continue with this dinner.
