Chapter 278
Wang Yan was stunned again.
Kind sir, I know I said I deserve to die but I didn’t mean it literally. Besides, isn’t this how it is usually
written in scripts? I mean, who would actually kill themselves just because they said they deserve to
die?
After about ten seconds of silence, Wang Yan shamelessly answered, ”I can’t die yet since I still have
to finish the film. If not, all of Sir Chen’s investments will go down the drain!”
He had strong survival instincts and was indeed a brazen old hog.
“What exactly happened?” Nan Chen raised his voice abruptly.
Although they were speaking over the phone, Wang Yan almost jumped in fright and dropped the
phone.
“Please calm down, Master Chen. What happened was...”
Wang Yan then roughly exined the whole situation to him.
Nan Chen looked at Jiang Zhe.
Jiang Zhe immediately knew what he implied and proceeded to question on his behalf. “If you were
aware Ms. Ding wasn’t feeling well, why didn’t you send her to the hospital immediately? Why did you
continue filming?”
“I’m sorry, but it was what she requested.”
“She requested and you went with it? Are you the director or is she? Should she listen to you or should
you listen to her?” Jiang Zhe cut him off sternly.
Wang Yan felt bitter. Yes, I know I am the director, but Ms. Ding is from the Nan family. Of course, I
should be the one listening to her!
Although that’s what he was thinking, he didn’t dare voice it out. If he did, he would be going against Sir
Chen.
“It’s my mistake. It’s my mistake.”
All Wang Yan could do was to apologize repeatedly.
“Come to the hospital,” Nan Chen spoke this time.
“I’m already at the hospital, Sir Chen,” Wang Yan answered quickly.
Nan Chen shot a look at Jiang Zhe and thetter hung up the phone.
“Sir Chen, would you like me to inform the children about this?” Jiang Zhe asked in a soft tone.
“Don’t say anything to them yet. Let’s see how she is first, I don’t want to scare them.”
“Alright, I’ll get Qiao Zhan to pick them up and send them to the Nan family?”
“No, send them to the Red Maple City and get a servant to take care of them. Let them know we’re still
outside and that we’ll head hometer.”
“Yes, Sir Chen.”
Meanwhile, in the hospital, Ning Ran woke up after a nap and realized that Tang Jing was still beside
her.
Ning Ran felt bad for troubling her. “I think you should head back. I’m alright. Plus, the doctor said it’s
just a fever. I’ll be all good when this fever subsides.”
“You don’t need to hurry me, Ding. I have nothing to do even if I go back. I enjoy a quiet life just like
how my name suggests. I don’t socialize much either. I rather keep youpany here in the hospital,”
Tang Jing said as she checked her watch.
“You really don’t have to. I can ask a nurse for help if I need anything. You should just head home, I feel
so embarrassed to trouble you.”
“What’s there to be embarrassed about? We’re sisters! I’m honored that you’re willing to let me
apany you. If you hurry me away, I’ll feel like I’m disdained,” Tang Jing responded.
Ning Ran couldn’t say anything else since Tang Jing had put it that way.
“If that’s the case, head home when I finish this drip, alright? You really don’t have to apany me.”
Tang Jing checked her watch again and then replied, “We’ll see. Oh! By the way, Ding, where’s your
husband?”
“My husband?”
“Yeah! Since you’re unwell, your husband would be visiting you, right?”
“Haha, I’m not married and I don’t have a husband.”
“Huh, how is that possible? Don’t you have two children? How is it possible that you’re not married?”
“It wasn’t nned and it doesn’t matter if I’m married or not.”
Property ? N?velDrama.Org.
It was obvious Tang Jing wanted to know more, but Ning Ran didn’t want to go into the matter.
Not only were these her private matters, but it was also something painful for her to recall. Unless
necessary, Ning Ran would usually avoid talking about it.
“Oh, I see. What happened exactly? It must be a romantic and exciting story, right?” Tang Jing’s
expression showed great interest in this topic.
“It’s nothing romantic. Anyways, it’s all in the past so I don’t remember much. What about you? Do you
have a boyfriend?” Ning Ran attempted to change the topic.
“Nope. I don’t have any admirers either.” Tang Jing chuckled.
“That’s not possible. You’re pretty and smart. I’m sure you have many admirers. Perhaps it’s because
you’ve set your standards too high and they’re not good enough for you?
“I really have no admirers. There were a few back then, but they were all too... ordinary. I find it boring,”
Tang Jing bluntly answered.
“So, what type of guy are you looking for then? What do you consider as not ordinary?” Ning Ran
asked.
Tang Jing didn’t answer her, but the image of a handsome man vaguely appeared in her mind.
“I said those off the top of my head. I think it’s mainly up to destiny, you know? When the timees,
the destined one will appear. As long as it’s someone who makes my heart flutter, I think I don’t have
any specific requirement.” Tang Jing answered with a smile.
At that moment, the door was pushed open by the director of the hospital.
Once the door waspletely open, the hospital director quickly moved aside and made a ‘wee’
gesture.
Following that, a tall man dressed in ck walked in.
Tang Jing took a glimpse of him and immediately felt as if her breath was taken away.
So handsome, so cool and so impressive!
With his kingly temperament, everyone else looked like supporting roles as soon as he walked into the
ward. He had not said a single word but was already the center of attention.
“Whot’s there to be emborrossed obout? We’re sisters! I’m honored thot you’re willing to let me
opony you. If you hurry me owoy, I’ll feel like I’m disdoined,” Tong Jing responded.
Ning Ron couldn’t soy onything else since Tong Jing hod put it thot woy.
“If thot’s the cose, heod home when I finish this drip, olright? You reolly don’t hove to opony me.”
Tong Jing checked her wotch ogoin ond then replied, “We’ll see. Oh! By the woy, Ding, where’s your
husbond?”
“My husbond?”
“Yeoh! Since you’re unwell, your husbond would be visiting you, right?”
“Hoho, I’m not morried ond I don’t hove o husbond.”
“Huh, how is thot possible? Don’t you hove two children? How is it possible thot you’re not morried?”
“It wosn’t plonned ond it doesn’t motter if I’m morried or not.”
It wos obvious Tong Jing wonted to know more, but Ning Ron didn’t wont to go into the motter.
Not only were these her privote motters, but it wos olso something poinful for her to recoll. Unless
necessory, Ning Ron would usuolly ovoid tolking obout it.
“Oh, I see. Whot hoppened exoctly? It must be o romontic ond exciting story, right?” Tong Jing’s
expression showed greot interest in this topic.
“It’s nothing romontic. Anywoys, it’s oll in the post so I don’t remember much. Whot obout you? Do you
hove o boyfriend?” Ning Ron ottempted to chonge the topic.
“Nope. I don’t hove ony odmirers either.” Tong Jing chuckled.
“Thot’s not possible. You’re pretty ond smort. I’m sure you hove mony odmirers. Perhops it’s becouse
you’ve set your stondords too high ond they’re not good enough for you?
“I reolly hove no odmirers. There were o few bock then, but they were oll too... ordinory. I find it boring,”
Tong Jing bluntly onswered.
“So, whot type of guy ore you looking for then? Whot do you consider os not ordinory?” Ning Ron
osked.
Tong Jing didn’t onswer her, but the imoge of o hondsome mon voguely oppeored in her mind.
“I soid those off the top of my heod. I think it’s moinly up to destiny, you know? When the timees,
the destined one will oppeor. As long os it’s someone who mokes my heort flutter, I think I don’t hove
ony specific requirement.” Tong Jing onswered with o smile.
At thot moment, the door wos pushed open by the director of the hospitol.
Once the door wospletely open, the hospitol director quickly moved oside ond mode o ‘wee’
gesture.
Following thot, o toll mon dressed in block wolked in.
Tong Jing took o glimpse of him ond immediotely felt os if her breoth wos token owoy.
So hondsome, so cool ond so impressive!
With his kingly temperoment, everyone else looked like supporting roles os soon os he wolked into the
word. He hod not soid o single word but wos olreody the center of ottention.
He walked towards the hospital bed, which he had his gaze fixed on, leaned forward and asked, “How
are you feeling?”
Ning Ran forced a smile, “Not bad, I’m still alive.”
The director started bbering about Ning Ran’s condition and the treatment that they’ve prescribed.
“Are you hungry?” Nan Chen asked again.
“No,” Ning Ran replied.
“We’ve given her a nutrient solution. That’s why Ms. Ding won’t be feeling hungry for the time being.”
The hospital director quickly added.
Nan Chen waved his hands as he started getting annoyed by the hospital director.
“Thank you for your hard work, Director. You can leave now,” Jiang Zhe said.
“Sure. If there’s anything you need, please let me know. I will be on standby in my office. Rest assured,
Sir Chen. We will ensure Ms. Ding recovers in the shortest of time!”
Nan Chen waved his hands again and signaled him to leave quickly.
The hospital’s head of department and doctors in charge who had tagged along then left as well. The
only people who remained in the ward were Nan Chen, Ning Ran, and director Wang Yan, who dared
not move.
There was also another person who has been standing in a corner in the room- Tang Jing.
She kept her eyes on Nan Chen because she didn’t want to miss the opportunity to nod and greet him
if he ever looked at her.
Even if they didn’t interact, eye contact was already good enough.
Unfortunately, this opportunity never arrived as Nan Chen refused to look elsewhere. His eyes were
only for Ning Ran, who was on the bed. He disregarded everyone else, including Tang Jing.
“Thank you for visiting me. I’m fine. Please go ahead and do what you need to,” Ning Ran said to Nan
Chen.
Nan Chen ignored her.
He turned around and stared at Wang Yan but didn’t say a single thing.
Wang Yan was terrified as he pleaded, “I’m so sorry, Sir` Chen. It’s my fault for not taking good care of
Ms. Ding. Please forgive me.”
He excluded the phrase about him deserving to die this time because he was worried Nan Chen would
actually want him dead.
“It’s not your fault, Director Wang. It’s my own problem. This has nothing to do with you!” Ning Ran
elucidated quickly.
As a matter of fact, this really had nothing to do with Wang Yan. Plus, Wang Yan had been, without a
doubt, taking good care of her. She didn’t want to get Wang Yan into trouble just because she got sick.
“It’s me who didn’t take good care of Ding. She had to go through some extra shots because I didn’t do
well. This is all my fault,” Tang Jing said.
Tang Jing was clever about the timing she chose to speak. Just as they were trying to take the me
for it, she chimed in. It seemed very natural and made her look like a very responsible person.
