    Chapter 948 A Big Fuss


    Nan Chen''s voice also turned cold. “What''s wrong with you? What are you up to?”


    “Do you have something to say or not? If not, I''m hanging up!” Ning Ran said in a frustrated tone.


    “I dare you!” Nan Chen said coldly.


    Fury burned in Ning Ran''s chest, and she hung up the phone directly.


    Why wouldn''t I dare to hang up on you? Do you think you''re that great to have a first love?


    Nan Chen called again, but this time Ning Ran refused to answer no matter what.


    Serves you right for p*ssing me off!


    After a while, her phone vibrated again. This time, it was a call from Cheng Xiangyun.


    Ning Ran answered the call. “What''s up, Cheng?”


    “Mr. Chen called me just now and asked me what''s wrong with you. I was flummoxed. What''s going on


    between you two?” Cheng Xiangyun asked.


    “Why did he call you?”


    “He asked me why you sounded upset and whether you were treated unfairly during the recording of


    the program. I thought you didn''t suffer any injustice. You just had a little argument with that contestant,


    and you fought back. And in the end, you emerged as the winner. That can''t be considered an injustice,


    right?”


    Ning Ran casually replied, “Just ignore him. He''s crazy!”


    Cheng Xiangyun shouted, “You can ignore him, but he''s our big boss. Even the president of Star


    Entertainment has to listen to him. How can I, a mere artist manager, offend the big boss? You''re telling


    me to ignore him. It''s easy for you to say!”


    Ning Ran was getting impatient. “What do you want, then? Just tell him I''m fine.”


    “I don''t know what''s going on with you over there. I just reported to Mr. Chen about the incident of you


    getting into an argument during the recording.”


    Ning Ran felt her head pounding. “Why did you do that? You said it was a trivial matter yourself, so why


    did you tell him? Are you out of your mind?”


    Ovee with indignation, Cheng Xiangyun retorted, “You''re the one who''s out of your mind. What''s


    going on between you and Mr. Chen? Why did he call to ask me what''s wrong with you?”


    “All right, I''ll talk to him myself. Goodbye.”


    Ning Ran hung up the phone.


    Just as she ended the call, the producer''s phone started ringing. At first, he casually answered the


    phone, but then his expression soon turned serious.


    His gaze shifted toward Ning Ran, and he said, “There may be a misunderstanding regarding this


    matter. I assure you, Mrs. Nan wasn''t mistreated here. The contestant in question is just naive, and we


    will advise them ordingly. Please ry this message to Mr. Nan. We will not let anyone bully Mrs.


    Nan. That''s absolutely impossible... Oh, very well, then. I will personally exin this to Mr. Nan. Thank


    you, Assistant Jiang.”


    He stood up and continued, “Hello, Mr. Nan. I''m the producer of the show, Chen Yong. It''s a pleasure to


    speak with you...”


    He proceeded to offer a detailed exnation, appearing quite anxious.


    Finally, he handed the phone to Ning Ran and said, “Ms. Ding, it''s Mr. Nan from Nanshi Corporation.


    He mentioned that we mistreated you on the show and would like you to personally talk to him. We will


    handle the matter and ask for his forgiveness.”


    Ning Ran felt her head ache. Jiang Zhe truly had a great influence to locate the producer so quickly.


    He even forced the producer to seek her help to exin the situation directly.


    Nan Chen is bing pettier by the day. Is it necessary to make such a big fuss just because I was


    rude to him?


    Ning Ran waved her hand dismissively and said, “I don''t want to talk to him! Just tell him I''m fine.”


    The producer looked troubled. “Ms. Ding, I''ve tried exining, but Assistant Jiang insists that you


    personally speak with Mr. Nan. Assistant Jiang mentioned that if this matter wasn''t resolved, several


    major broadcasting tforms might unite to boycott our show! If that happens, how am I supposed to


    exin myself to the investors? Please, help me out and exin the situation to Mr. Nan.”


    Ning Ran couldn''t help but feel that Nan Chen was really ruthless for driving the producer into a corner.


    It seemed that she had no other choice but to talk on the phone.


    She grabbed the phone and said, “Hello?”


    The man''s cold voice rang out on the other end. “You''re taking it out on me because someone else


    bullied you?”


    Ning Ran knew that Nan Chen must have misunderstood. She was mad at him because of Luo Zhiyi,


    but Nan Chen had mistakenly thought she was mad because she was bullied on set.


    “I''m all right, so don''t make things difficult for Mr. Chen, okay?”


    Nan Chen said nothing.


    “Are you listening? I said I''m fine. Stop bothering others!” Ning Ran added.


    Finally, Nan Chen''s voice came through. “Are you going to hang up on me again next time?”


    This sudden change in topic caught Ning Ran off guard. “What?”


    “Listen to me,” he said.


    Ning Ran realized she was using the producer''s phone to discuss such private matters. It felt strange.


    “Let''s not talk about this anymore...”


    Nan Chen, however, refused to rest. “Why did you hang up on me? Will you hang up on me again next


    time?”


    “Don''t you ever give up? We can discuss thister!” Ning Ran grew exasperated.


    “No! We''re discussing this now,” Nan Chen disagreed.


    As they conversed, everyone was listening. Although the call was not on speakerphone, they were all


    curious about what had happened.


    An idea popped into Ning Ran''s mind, and her voice softened as she said, “All right, I understand. I


    know you miss me. I''ll being home tomorrow!”


    The situation took an unexpected turn, leaving Nan Chen stumped.


    When did I say I miss you? Wasn''t I just questioning you for hanging up on me? How did it turn into me


    missing you?


    Luo Zhiyi, who had been maintaining a charming smile, heard Ning Ran''s deliberately raised voice, and


    her smile froze for a moment.


    However, she quickly recollected herself as she quietly conversed with the people around her.


    Nan Chen sensed something was off. “Are you drunk?”


    Ning Ran quickly responded, “No, I didn''t drink much. Don''t worry. You shouldn''t stay up toote. Go


    and tuck the kids in bed early, and don''t work too hard. All right, don''t be clingy. Bye.”


    This time, Ning Ran didn''t wait for Nan Chen''s response before hanging up the phone.


    She returned the phone to the producer and apologized, “I''m sorry. That''s just how my husband is. He


    always worries about me when I''m out. He can be annoying.”


    The producer was taken aback. “Is Mr. Nan not angry anymore?”


    Ning Ran smiled. “He''s not angry. He was just unable to reach me because my phone died, so he


    called to look for me. I''ve already exined it to him. Everything is fine.”

    The producer let out a sigh of relief. “Ms. Ding, that contestant was disrespectful toward you during


    today''s recording. On behalf of the show, I apologize. I promise such incidents will not happen again.


    You''ve shown great magnanimity by voting for him to advance to the next round. I will make sure his


    performance in the next round is canceled.”


    The director, who seemed somewhat nervous, piped up, “Since it''s already settled, let him advance to


    the next round.”


    Taking in the director''s demeanor, Ning Ran could guess what was going on.


    That contestant was so arrogant despite having poor skills. He must have some formidable background


    backing him up.


    Ordinary amateurs would be extremely grateful for the opportunity to appear on television and wouldn''t


    dare to be so arrogant.


    If that was the case, then this matter was far from over.
