Chapter 807
Nan Chen furrowed his brows again and looked at Ning Ran.
“I''m telling the truth. Honestly, I''m not lying this time,” she said in an aggrieved tone.
“What does that have to do with me?” he asked.
His question stumped Ning Ran.
He does have a point. A man Ding Fei doesn''t know very well got her pregnant, and now she wants to
keep the baby. However, what has any of that got to do with Nan Chen?
“Well, it''s true that it has nothing to do with you. However, you could lend her a helping hand,” she
replied weakly.
“Why should I?”
“Uh... That''s because...” Ning Ran was at a loss for what to say.
I''ve got to apud my stupidity. Why do I let Nan Chen''s curt responses render me speechless just like
that?
After calming down, she finally found an excuse that sounded somewhat reasonable. “Take pity on a
life. This is an innocent child''s life we''re talking about.”
“You''re also well aware that Ruan Anxi is a monster with no principles, and Ding Fei is no kind soul. It
isn''t worth it to offend a bad guy for the sake of another bad guy. Besides, how do you know she won''t
turn and bite the hand that fed her after she gets through this rough patch?”
She shook her head. “I can''t guarantee it. Indeed, she''s a rotten apple.”
“So, why are we still discussing this?”
“Ding Fei deserves to die, but I can''t help feeling sorry for her baby. Back then, Ning Ziqiang also
forced me to have an abortion. Had I not escaped, you wouldn''t have had the chance to meet Dabao
and Erbao.”
Ning Ran still felt a pang of sadness when she brought up the past. After all, it had been a difficult time
for her.
The look of helplessness in her eyes softened Nan Chen''s heart.
It''s not that I don''t want to do as she asks and help Ding Fei. It''s just that Ruan Anxi is a tough nut to
crack. Helping Ding Fei would be like knowing full well that a mad dog is roaming the streets yet still
goes to kick it, ending up getting chased and bitten. If that isn''t foolish behavior, then what is?
Although Nan Chen did charitable work, he possessed more of a business mindset. In terms of
benefits, helping Ding Fei would be a high-risk venture with practically zero return. Not only would it be
risky, but it would likely drag his family into it.
Most importantly, Ding Fei is not a good person. It''s not worth it to take risks for her. However, I can''t
bear to turn Ning Ran down. I really can''t. She hardly ever asks me to do things for her. If it''s something
she can handle on her own, she won''te to me for help. I know that she empathizes with Ding Fei
from a mother''s perspective. As she said, all she wants is to do more good deeds to gain more good
karma for the two little ones. I may not be a Buddhist, but I agree with the idea behind karma. In any
case, doing good makes one feel more at ease than doing something evil.
“If you don''t agree, I''ll just have to think of something on my own,” said Ning Ran pitifully.
“Go ahead,” he answered without hesitation.
She was dumbfounded. What the heck? Are you really not going to care about this? Are you seriously
going to let me think of something on my own? If I could, why would Ie looking for you?
“How can you have the heart to turn a blind eye to this? Do you think I''m capable of dealing with this
matter?” she asked, unable to ept it.
“I think that you can,” he answered earnestly.
She let out a cry of protest. “Good heavens! This doesn''t make sense. Is there no justice in this world?”
Although he felt the urge to chuckle, he pretended not to hear what she said. Go ahead and wail all you
want!
When they arrived at their destination, Nan Chen got out of the car and went to work. Meanwhile, Ning
Ran remained in the car, mulling over how to help Ding Fei.

Suddenly, she thought of someone—Qiao Zhan.
I feel as though he''ll be able to settle many things. Nan Chen refuses to help me, but Qiao Zhan can.
Even if Nan Chen had agreed to help with such personal matters, he''d still send Qiao Zhan to make the
arrangements, right? Qiao Zhan can mobilize many resources by using Nan Chen''s name anyway, so
why don''t I go to him directly?
Hence, she took out her phone and called Qiao Zhan.
s, she got a busy signal, indicating that Qiao Zhan was on a call.
Meanwhile, the person Qiao Zhan was talking to over the phone was Nan Chen.
“Sir Chen, just as you expected, I got a call from Madam. I''m guessing it''s about the incident you just
mentioned,” said Qiao Zhan.
“It''s not convenient for me to go up against Ruan Anxi directly, nor do I want to provoke a mad dog.
That''s why you and Ning Ran need to take care of this yourselves. Just try your best. If it works, great.
Even if it doesn''t, make sure not to take too many risks. Basically, go with Ning Ran''s n. If she asks
you to make any arrangements, go ahead and do it and pretend I don''t have a clue about what''s going
on,” Nan Chen instructed.
“All right. Got it, Sir Chen,” Qiao Zhan replied.
No sooner had he ended the call with Nan Chen than Ning Ran''s call came in.
At nine o''clock that night, Qiao Zhan led Ding Fei out of the bathhouse where she had been for the past
few days.
During the entire car ride, Ding Fei kept thanking Ning Ran. “I did so many awful things to you before,
yet you''re still willing to help me. That makes me so—”
“That''s enough. You can save it with the niceties. You don''t have to say anything more. If you must
thank someone, you can thank Chief Qiao,” Ning Ran said, cutting her off.
“Thank you, Ah Qiao.”
“Shut up. Don''t call me that. I only did as Madam asked me to. That''s why I helped you. You don''t have
to thank me,” Qiao Zhan responded stiffly.
He knew just how much suffering Ding Fei had caused Ning Ran.
With Qiao Zhan''s temper, he would not necessarily have agreed to help Ding Fei if Nan Chen had not
privately instructed him to cooperate with Ning Ran.
Regardless of whether Ding Fei was pregnant, she was a devious woman in his eyes.
The look in his eyes was so cold when he stared at her that she could sense his hostility.
She felt utterly embarrassed, for even her attempt at expressing her gratitude was shot down.
Nheless, she knew full well what she had done in the past and could not me others.
“We''ve thought about it and decided to send you to an orphanage as a volunteer. Before you can work,
you can help out at the orphanage. Try your best to do good deeds to gain good karma for the baby in
your belly. That area is rtively secluded and not as busy, so there''s little chance of being found. Qiao
Zhan has already spoken to the orphanage''s director and said you''re a long-term volunteer. While
you''re there, you should go by your real name, Luo Fei. When your baby is born, it''s up to you what
you want to do next. Do you have any objections to our arrangement?” Ning Ran asked Ding Fei.
“I''ve no objections. I''m willing to work at the orphanage for free for the rest of my life. As long as my
baby can be born safely and grows up healthily, I''ll willingly remain there forever. The only thing is that
Ruan Anxi is vicious and merciless. I''m worried he''ll track me to that ce. I''d never be able to forgive
myself if I got my child involved in the mess.”
I can tell she means every word she says. So, it turns out that a child can open the eyes of a malicious
person. The change in her is truly astonishing.
Ning Ran would have suspected Ding Fei of putting on an act if she had not seen thetter''s
determined and sincere gaze.
However, as a mother, she believed Ding Fei had changed for good.
Love has the power to change everything. This may sound like a cheesy feel-good quote, but it couldn''t
be more fitting in Ding Fei''s case.
Once they arrived at the orphanage and got out of the car, Ding Fei sank to her knees again while
weeping uncontrobly.
She did not know what else to do. Hence, she could only use such dramatic gestures, kneeling to show
her remorse and apologize to Ning Ran.
Ning Ran hesitated briefly before reaching out to help Ding Fei to her feet. “Let the past be the past.
You don''t have to do this. I hope you''ll be a good mother.”
