Chapter 613
Nan Xing was forced to stay where he was. To make matters worse, he couldn''t shove Ouyang Qing
away right in front of the reporters.
“Ms. Ouyang, the public thinks your marriage with Mr. Xing is a marriage of convenience. Will there be
more coborations between Nanshi Corporation and Sunshine Corporation in the future after your
wedding?” a reporter questioned.
That question was clearly prepared beforehand. Ouyang Qing must provide coherent answers to such
important questions.
“Of course. Our marriage will no doubt promote more coboration between the Ouyang family and
Nanshi Corporation. Actually, our families have always been working closely together. It''s just that the
coborations will be more expansive and in-depth henceforth.” Ouyang Qing beamed in front of the
cameras.
Another reporter asked an even more pivotal question. “Will the Ouyang family consider investing in
Nanshi Corporation?”
“You''ll have to ask my dad that question. After all, he''s the patriarch of the Ouyang family. However, I
think he will, because if he does, it''s a win-win situation.”
That was an exceptionally crucial question to answer because that would foreshadow the Ouyang
family''s subsequent actions in the near future.
The n was to let the media spread the news so that Nanshi Corporation''s shareholders and high-
ranking officials would be prepared for what was toe.
That way, when the Ouyang family enacted their n, it wouldn''te off as being too abrupt and
would instead appear natural.
“What do you think about it, Mr. Xing? Do you share the same sentiment?” a reporter asked.
Nan Xing stered a smile on his face. “You all know I''m a free man. I don''t care about Nanshi
Corporation''s businesses. Besides, there are many more interesting things for me to do now that I''m
newly wedded. Why would I want to think about work now? I don''t have time!”
That joke was a lot funnier than thest and even implied a dirty context, so it got aught from the
reporters.
With all the important questions answered, it was almost time to apply for the marriage certificate.
Worried that Nan Xing would spout even more inappropriate remarks should the conversation continue,
Ouyang Qing waved at the reporters before pulling the man into the building.
Meanwhile, in Livingsfill, Dabao and Erbao were sunbathing in Mountview Inn''s courtyard.
Erbao was feeling much better as she kept running around the courtyard, asionally disturbing her
older brother, who was reading a book.
“Can you get some rest, Erbao? Don''t tire yourself out,” Cheng Xiangyun said.
Ever since losing contact with Ning Ran and the others, Cheng Xiangyun''s identity had changed from
Ning Ran''s assistant to Erbao''s assistant.
Since Erbao was a girl, it was inconvenient for Qiao Zhan and the other bodyguards to take care of her.
Thus, that responsibility naturally fell on Cheng Xiangyun''s shoulders.
The job exhausted her. Whenever Erbao was under the weather, the woman would get very worried. It
was tiring for her to constantly keep an eye on the little girl''s condition and take her body temperature
from time to time.
However, the mischievous girl could never stay still when she was feeling better and would constantly
be up to something.
Left without a choice, Cheng Xiangyun would have to keep watch of the girl to ensure she did not get
herself into trouble.

After a few days of repeating the same actions, Cheng Xiangyun finally understood why babysitters
had very high wages, for the job was anything but easy.
After Nan Xing promised that Nan Chen and the others would return in three days, Dabao and Erbao
became more at ease. They were able to eat and sleep better.
However, the children being in good spirits meant it was harder for Cheng Xiangyun to do her job and
keep them under control.
“I''m bored, Aunt Xiang. How about we go and y outside?” Erbao suggested.
“No, we can only stay in the inn. We can''t go anywhere else,” said Cheng Xiangyun, turning her down.
“Why not? The weather''s warm right now. It''s such a pity if we don''t y outside!” Erbao eximed.
“Aren''t you ying right now? The courtyard''s pretty big. Isn''t that enough for you?”
“It''s not enough! I want to have fun outside! I want to watch a movie and eat tasty food!” Er Bao hugged
Cheng Xiangyun''s leg and kept shaking it.
The girl''s ability to pester people was out of this world. She wouldn''t stop until she got what she
wanted.
The key to her strategy was that she was reasonable. Instead of crying or throwing a tantrum, she just
relied on her cuteness to get her way.
Cheng Xiangyun, who was almost worn down by Erbao''s pleas, hoped she could bring the girl outdoors
as well.
However, she knew they shouldn''t act as they pleased for the time being since it was currently a crucial
period.
While she had no idea what happened to the Nan family, she knew for a fact that the matter wasn''t
child''s y.
Due to that reason, she mustn''t allow anything to happen to the children. Otherwise, it would only add
fuel to the fire.
Moreover, even if she agreed to Erbao''s request, the stubborn Qiao Zhan would never allow it.
“Let''s have fun outside, Aunt Xiang. Pretty please?” Erbao pleaded with her adorable voice.
Cheng Xiangyun couldn''t take it anymore, so she came up with an idea. “How about this? You go and
ask Uncle Qiao. If he says okay, I''ll take you outside to have fun. If he doesn''t, then there''s nothing I
can do.”
Of course, she knew there was no way Qiao Zhan would agree to it. She just wanted to pass the buck
to the man for a change.
“Uncle Qiao...” Erbao drawled as she approached the inn''s entrance.
Qiao Zhan spent most of his time at the entrance, vigntly observing the situation outside.
“Don''t call me that.” Qiao Zhan frowned.
He wasn''t that much olderpared to Nan Chen and was only a year or two older than thetter at
most. Being called that made him feel somewhat old.
In response, Erbao changed the way she addressed him. “Ah Qiao.”
“Okay, that sounds even worse. Just stick to calling me uncle, then,” Qiao Zhan said quickly.
“Please let us y outside! It''s too boring to stay here all day. I feel like I''m going crazy!”ined
Erbao.
“Please just bear with it a little longer, Little Miss. You really can''t go out right now!” He dared not agree
to her request.
It was a critical period, after all. There was no way he could bear the consequences if something
happened to the girl after he gave the okay.
“Uncle Qiao, Ah Qiao, Mr. Qiao...” Erbao begged.
“Please don''t stop pestering me, Little Miss. I really can''t allow you to leave. No matter what you call
me, I won''t agree to your request,” said Qiao Zhan with determination.
Sighing, Erbao turned to walk away with resignation.
It was then they heard knocks on the inn''s door.
The knocks were apanied by the eager voice of a child. “Open the door! Open the door! Open the
door!”
Judging by how she repeated the same thing three times in a row, the child seemed to be an impatient
person.
When Erbao heard the juvenile voice, she instantly got excited as she really wanted a ymate.
It would be great if it''s another kid! We would get to have so much fun together!
“Someone''s asking you to open the door, Uncle Qiao,” she said.
“Come over here and bring Little Miss away, Cheng Xiangyun! Don''t let her stand at the side of the
door! Are you even doing your job?” Cheng Xiangyun yelled.
“What are you shouting for? She was the one who wanted to go to you. It''s not like I can keep her by
my side for the whole day.” Cheng Xiangyun was ticked off by how the man called her by her full name.
“There''s a kid outside, Uncle Qiao. I want to see her!” Erbao, however, refused to leave.
That didn''t dissuade Qiao Zhan from being cautious. “The situation isplicated right now, Little Miss.
We don''t know what''s going on outside, so please leave for now.”
“No!” said Erbao wilfully.
Staring at Cheng Xiangyun, Qiao Zhan ordered, “Why are you still standing there? Take Little Miss
away now!”
