Chapter 377
“No, you have to! I want Uncle Xing to see how much of a Computer Guru you are!”
The real Computer Guru is in school right now... Ning Ran thought to herself.
At the Yunfeng Temple.
Nan Zhengde was having vegetarian dishes for dinner.
Although it was against the temple’s rules to eat after noon, Most of the monks there did a lot of
manualbor during the day and had no choice but to eat.
Nan Zhengde didn’t have a huge appetite, so he would just eat something light when he joined
them for dinner.
Nan Zhiyuan cautiously helped him out, trying to look as filial as possible after being allowed to
stay by his side.
“How are things with the high-ranking official? The General told me during the banquet that the
high-ranking official came over to Flower City for an inspection. He wanted Chen to wee
the official, but Chen wasn’t around at the time. This is such an important thing, so how could
Chen be so irresponsible? What’s gotten into him?” Nan Zhengde asked Nan Zhiyuan.
He saw how Nan Zhiyuan was hesitant to speak and pressed on, “Do you know anything about
this?”
“Well, I did hear a thing or two, but I’m not really sure what happened. It’s only been a short while since
my return, and I didn’t dare pry into the Nan family’s affairs too much,” Nan Zhiyuan said carefully.
“Stop beating around the bush and just tell me what you know!” Nan Zhengde shouted impatiently.
“I heard about this from Bai Hua, so I think she might be able to exin it better. Would you like to hear
it from her?”
“Sure, let her in.”
Bai Hua wasn’t allowed to stay in the temple at night, but visits were allowed during the day.
She was waiting outside the whole time and came straight in when Nan Zhiyuan called out to her.
She had been looking forward to this opportunity for a very long time.
“What is it, dad?” Bai Hua asked softly.
Her father was a Japanese, so she had been influenced by their culture and was very polite.
“What do you know about Chen?” Nan Zhengde asked.
“That’s the Nan family’s private affairs, and it’s inappropriate for a woman like myself to pry into it. That
was the mistake I made previously, and...”
“I’m not asking you about what happened before. Just tell me what you know.”
“I spoke to Nan Chen on the phone yesterday. He said there was a very important event today, which is
to escort a high-ranking official from the Capital. However, he had a sudden change of ns, so I was
worried that something came up and asked around about it,” Bai Hua said slowly.
“Did you manage to find anything?”
“Yes, it was because of a woman.”

“A woman? What woman?”
“The actress who gave birth to his two kids.”
“Ning Ran? Apart from her not-so-ideal background, she’s actually quite pretty and would
probably make a good match for him. If Chen likes her, and they already have kids of their own,
then it should be fine for them to be together,” Nan Zhengde said.
Bai Hua was shocked to hear that. Nan Zhengde is on Ning Ran’s side? Despite him being a
reasonable person, he isn’t one to be trifled with. I thought someone of his age would be so
fixated on finding someone with a matching background, and yet here he is saying he’s okay
with it?
“That was what I thought as well, but then I did some digging and found out more information
about her. There seems to be more to her than meets the eye,” Bai Hua said with a frown.
“What do you mean?”
“Take what happened today for example. Chen had originally nned to escort the official, but
then something happened to Ning Ran while she was on set. She then gave Chen a call and told
him to drop whatever he was doing to go and see her. Chen was reluctant and told her that he
had something really important to take care of, but Ning Ran insisted and even threatened to kill
herself if he didn’t do as she asked. Chen, being the kind-hearted person that he is, gave in to
her threats and rushed over to see her,” added Bai Hua.
Nan Zhengde was enraged when he heard that. “What? How could she be so unreasonable?”
“I too, find it hard to believe. However, that appears to be the case here,” Bai Hua said.
“Looks like I’ll have to find out more about Ning Ran, then. Such behavior is uneptable!”
Nan Zhengde said angrily.
“Although I’m no longer allowed to interfere with the Nan family’s affairs, I am still concerned
about my son, Chen. As such, I made use of our resources to find out more about Ning Ran.
The things she has done in the past are simply shocking to say the least.”
