Chapter 359


    Dabao was the first to discover the scandal between Nan Chen and Ouyang Qing on the inte.


    He stared at Ouyang Qing’s picture, trying to recall who she was.


    Seeing that Dabao didn’t look himself, Erbao came up to him and suddenly squawked, “Daddy is


    having an affair with another woman...”


    Dabao wondered where Erbao actually learned the word “affair”.


    He quickly ced a finger before his lips to hush his sister.


    Erbao and Dabao had a tacit mutual understanding as the former immediately piped down upon seeing


    his gesture.


    Thereafter, Dabao pointed to the small room. They slipped in quietly and closed the door.


    “What should we do now? How could Daddy have an affair?” Erbao started.


    “Watch what you say. What do you mean, having an affair? Don’t say such a thing about Daddy,”


    Dabao said grimly.


    “Then what is this called? Cheating?” Erbao asked innocently.


    “This is what you call a scandal, which means it’s something that is not a fact but has been hyped to


    make it look like one,” Dabao exined.


    “You mean this is not the truth?”


    “At least for now. Daddy’s a big shot. Many people want to use Daddy’s name to build hype, so we


    can’t take it too seriously,” Dabao said.


    “But what happens if Mommy sees this?” Erbao asked anxiously.


    Truth be told, Dabao shared the same sentiment as his sister.


    “We can’t let Mommy know about this. We have to pretend that nothing has happened,” Dabao replied


    in a low voice.


    “But someone would have told Mommy even if we kept quiet. Everyone can see what is on the inte.


    We can’t hide it from her,” Erbao presumed.


    “We’ll try to hide this as long as we can,” Dabao said.


    Erbao shook her head vigorously. “I don’t think we can hide it. Look at me. Even if I try to hide the fact


    that I’ve be chubbier, it’s still visible to everyone,” Erbao eventually confessed the one thing that


    had been troubling hertely.


    Meanwhile, Ning Ran had juste out of the bathroom when she noticed that there were a few


    missed calls on her phone.


    Ning Ran returned the call. “You’re not asking me again about who is the person sleeping next to me,


    are you? It’s still early for bedtime so there’s no one around.”


    “Dang! How can you still joke? Aren’t you worried that things will go out of control?” Cheng Xiangyun


    said, a hint of panic in her voice.


    “Jeez, it’s just a scandal. It’ll be forgotten in a day or two. What’s with the fuss again?” Ning Ran


    grumbled.


    “Dang! You know about it?”


    “How can I not know? You’ve been nagging me non-stop,” Ning Ran said.


    “What? I wasn’t nagging you. I just found out about it,” Cheng Xiangyun said. “Wait, are we on the


    same page?”


    “What is it exactly that you’re talking about?” Ning Ran was getting confused as well.


    “God, you’re so carefree. How can you stay so calm when your man is being snatched away?” Cheng


    Xiangyun panicked.


    “Hah, how funny. I don’t have a man, to begin with. What do you mean by saying my man is being


    snatched away?” Ning Ranughed.


    “Are you seriouslyughing right now? Didn’t you see the picture of Sir Chen and that prettydy? God,


    they even kissed and you don’t mind?”


    “What picture?”


    “Wow, you’re really clueless, huh? Hurry up and go take a look. The inte is all fired up but you’re


    still living in the dark. Jeez, that’s how carefree you are.”


    Hanging up, Ning Ran surfed the inte and her chest tightened.


    Ouyang Qing seems pretty innocent. Why would she do that?


    Was it Poker Face who flirted with her?


    Feeling a surge of anger rising from her heart, Ning Ran was about to smash her phone into pieces


    when she gently put it down on second thought.


    It’ll cost me heaps to buy a new phone.


    Ning Ran eventually reached for the cushions on the sofa to put out the fire in her heart. Yet she


    couldn’t seem to work off her anger.


    It’s just a picture. Why am I all worked up?


    Upon hearing the sound of something astir from the small room, Dabao and Erbao ran out, only to see


    the mess in the living room.


    They exchanged nces and knew at once that she had found out about their daddy’s affair.


    Dabao picked up the cushions on the floor knowingly and ced them on the sofa.


    Seeing that, Erbao immediately went up to give her brother a hand.


    “Mommy, what’s wrong?” Erbao asked Ning Ran.


    How should I exin it to them?


    Nan Chen may be their father, but we’re not married.


    N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Strictly speaking, we’re both two individuals who have no right to meddle with each other’s private


    lives. I don’t even have the right to be angry.


    “I’m fine. I don’t think these cushions are arranged nicely. I was just going to rearrange them,” Ning Ran


    said nonchntly.


    “Huh? But there’s no need to throw them on the floor. Does Mommy think it would look better on the


    floor?” Erbao asked mischievously, knowing that Ning Ran was lying.


    “I’m happy doing that, so what? What time is it now? Why aren’t you sleeping?” Ning Ran scolded.


    Erbao flinched at once. “In a bit, Mommy. I’ll bathe myself and brush my teeth. I’ll do everything on my


    own and save you the trouble, Mommy.”


    Ning Ran’s heart softened. She knew she shouldn’t have taken her frustrations out on the kids.


    “All right. Don’t stay up toote. Mommy’s fine.” Ning Ran drew in another long breath.


    “We’ll turn in then, Mommy. I’ll read Erbao a story before going back to my room,” Dabao said.


    Ning Ran waved her hand, gesturing for them to go quickly.


    Right then, Cheng Xiangyun called again.


    “That’s crazy, huh? You have just lost your grip on your man. Come on, you had one job!” Cheng


    Xiangyun screamed into the phone.


    “What’s with that screaming? What do you mean by my man? Is he even mine?” Ning Ran retorted.


    “You gotta find a way to tie him down before he is snatched. Well, there you have it. Now he has been


    snatched by someone else, he is gone. What are you going to do now?”


    “Quit talking nonsense to me. There’s nothing going on between us. We have nothing to do with each


    other. What is his problem got to do with me?”


    “Gosh, you’re quite open-minded, huh? Listen to me. I’ve worked so hard just so you can be a


    superstar and just so I could make a fortune with you someday. We’re so close to making our dream


    come true, but you screwed it up! Have you ever considered my feelings? You’d better go and get your


    man back. Seduce him or even sleep with him if that’s what it takes to get him back!”


    Ning Ran felt as if her head was going to explode. What is this woman talking about?
