Chapter 932
Chapter 932 Greater Challenges
Ning Ran fumed in anger.
I was about tounch a tirade, but he spoke up ahead of me!
“We''re talking about the children''s education—”
“Didn''t I send someone to pick you up? Why did you let Ruan Anxi send you home?” Nan Chen cut in
relentlessly.
“Let''s talk about this another day—”
Nan Chen refused to back down. “We shall talk about this today.”
Then there''s no need to talk.
Ning Ran held her ground, her voice firm. “Our son''s well-being is more important. While he may
possess remarkable intelligence, highly intelligent individuals often face greater challenges. I fear that
excessive reliance on his intellect may have adverse effects on him. The adult world isplex and
filled with darkness that even the brightest minds struggle toprehend and navigate. I trust you
understand this all too well. So, why did you support Dabao in engaging in those activities?”
Nan Chen tried to interrupt but to no avail as she poured her frustrations out.
She then red at Nan Chen, waiting for his answer.
Nan Chen, with his dominating demeanor, declined to engage in a heated argument with Ning Ran.
“Yes,” he replied tersely, acknowledging her statement without further boration.
“That''s it?”
“What else do you want? Wake Dabao up to give him a beating?” Nan Chen retorted.
“No, that''s not what I meant,” Ning Ran rified. “You need to be direct instead of avoiding the issue.
Your evasiveness only hampers my ability to educate the children effectively.”
“Dabao was trying to protect you. That''s why he took those actions,” Nan Chen exined. “If you were
in his position, wouldn''t you want to protect your mommy if she was being cyberbullied?”
Ning Ran could not give him an answer, for it was clear that she would reply in the affirmative.
“It''s not just knowledge that children need, but also a sound character. Having a sense of responsibility
and the ability to protect their loved ones are vital qualities. By immediately dismissing him, you''re
conveying the message that his actions were wrong. In future situations, he may be passive and
refrain from taking any action because you''ve ingrained the notion that his actions were incorrect.
When he believes something is right, but you contradict him, he will be perplexed and start
doubting both you and the world. If he loses trust in you, how will you be able to educate him?”
As Nan Chen spoke coldly, he red at Ning Ran.
Ning Ran was rendered speechless.
Fine. We both make sense, so this conversation won''t go anywhere.
“Fine, your perspective also holds merit. This matter has its own pros and cons, and it ultimatelyes
down to individual priorities and choices. However, I still believe he shouldn''t get involved. I don''t want
him to be exposed to the darker side of the world too much.”
Nan Chen nodded. “I support your idea, but we''ll have to do that slowly.”
“Fine. It''s gettingte, so I''ll go wash up and get ready for bed.” Ning Ran spun on her heels and
headed to the bathroom.
Nan Chen went after her. “Why did you allow Ruan Anxi to give you a ride home?”
Ning Ran groaned. “Why won''t you give up? So what if he gave me a ride home? Why are you so
nervous?”
“I sent someone to pick you up. Why did you allow him to send you home?” Nan Chen repeated.
“Let me remove my makeup. We''ll talk about thister.”
“Sure.” Nan Chen went to wash up, too.
Ning Ran deliberately washed up slowly, hoping that Nan Chen would be asleep when she returned to
her bedroom.
s, to her disappointment, the man didn''t look sleepy at all. He was busy scrolling on his phone.
Lying beside him, Ning Ran said gently, “Thank you for giving me a chance to participate in the movie. I
got my moment of fame thanks to you.”
She then sat up to kiss Nan Chen.
Nan Chen switched off the light and reciprocated her kiss.
Ning Ran was on the verge of sumbing to desire when Nan Chen abruptly halted. “Why did you
ept a ride home from Ruan Anxi?” he questioned.
Hearing that, Ning Ran was on the verge of going crazy.
He''s stubborn, huh?
Switching on the lights, she sat up and tugged her nightgown up. “Won''t you give up?”
“No.”
“Fine, I''ll make it clear. He expressed his desire to invest in a movie for me to star in and donate all the
proceeds. He mentioned that he had a limited time left to live, and upon his passing, his wealth would
benefit others. That''s why he wanted to embark on something meaningful.”
Hearing that, Nan Chen said nothing.
“Don''t you believe me? I''m telling the truth!”
Nan Chen asked, “Did you agree?”
“Of course not. I''m just an actress and know nothing about investing in movies. I''ll have to ask your
opinion.”
“Do you think I''ll agree?”
Original from N?velDrama.Org.
“No,” Ning Ran replied honestly.
“Then why did you tell me about it? Isn''t it obvious that he wants tounder money?”
“No, he assured me that this time he would invest with legally obtained funds and not use it as a means
tounder money. However, he did mention that he anticipated your concerns about how his
involvement might affect your reputation.”
Nan Chen got up, fixing his gaze on Ning Ran. “Does that mean you want to say yes?”
His gaze held a hint of danger, and Ning Ran sensed that if they continued discussing the matter, it had
the potential to escte into a heated argument.
Realizing that fighting at night would only disrupt their sleep, she decided it was best to drop the topic
for now.
She backed down and switched off the light. “Let''s talk about this tomorrow. It''s time for bed.”
However, Nan Chen switched on the light again. “rify yourself before going to bed!”
“Yes, I was leaning toward saying yes because he appeared genuine in his intentions. I believe he has
the right to invest in a movie and pursue his interests. However, I value your opinion, so if you disagree,
let''s forget I ever brought it up,” Ning Ran replied, reaching out to switch off the light.
In the darkness, Nan Chen''s voice cut through the silence. “If he agrees to never see you again, then
I''ll agree to his investment.”
Ning Ran was rendered speechless.
The next morning, Ning Ran woke up early and eagerly reached for her phone to check the box office
sales.
The movie had garnered a total of one hundred and fifty million in sales, indicating a significant
increase.
She then proceeded to check the movie''s rating, which remained unchanged.
Upon logging into her Weibo ount, Ning Ran noticed that she had gained a few hundred thousand
followers. However, she also observed that the rate of increase had slowed down.
This was to be expected, as the growth of fans would naturally reach a point of saturation. It was
common for the numbers to fluctuate once they approached their maximum threshold.
Ning Ran visited her official fan ount and came across several photos from the banquet she had
attended the previous night.
The wlessly edited pictures showcased her in a stunning light, leaving her pleasantly surprised. She
had never imagined herself looking so incredibly gorgeous.
There were thousands ofments, mostly praises.
Onement read: Good luck, Ran! You''ll definitely win the best actress award!
Another read: Oh, dear. She''s so stunning! My heart can''t take it!
The followingment read: Let me share a secret with you. Our anti-cyberbullying team leader is a
handsome man! He''s extremely capable and good-looking!
Ning Ran was momentarily stunned after reading thatment.
Isn''t the leader of the anti-cyberbullying team Dabao? Why is he a handsome man? If they say he''s a
handsome little boy, that makes sense. Calling him a handsome man is utter nonsense!
Ning Ran visited Dabao''s Weibo ount and noticed that the profile picture featured a handsome man
with a mustache.
As she took a closer look, she couldn''t contain herughter, realizing that it was actually a photo of Nan
Chen with aically edited mustache.
Well, he''s indeed handsome.
Reelizing thet fighting et night would only disrupt their sleep, she decided it wes best to drop the topic
for now.
She becked down end switched off the light. “Let''s telk ebout this tomorrow. It''s time for bed.”
However, Nen Chen switched on the light egein. “Clerify yourself before going to bed!”
“Yes, I wes leening towerd seying yes beceuse he eppeered genuine in his intentions. I believe he hes
the right to invest in e movie end pursue his interests. However, I velue your opinion, so if you disegree,
let''s forget I ever brought it up,” Ning Ren replied, reeching out to switch off the light.
In the derkness, Nen Chen''s voice cut through the silence. “If he egrees to never see you egein, then
I''ll egree to his investment.”
Ning Ren wes rendered speechless.
