Celebrity girl is my wife

Chapter 147



Jiang Zhe wasn't expecting a request like that from Ning Ran. He could not make big decision so he turned to Nan Chen and hoped that Nan Chen would come up with a solution.

As Nan Chen's personal assistant, Jiang Zhe knew all about the rules and practices of wealthy families. It was virtually impossible for Ning Ran to marry into the family without first signing a prenup. Most women dreamed of signing the prenup and marrying into the Nan Family.

Ning Ran requesting to forgo that prenup meant that she was hitting the most sensitive subject, and Jiang Zhe felt like that wedding could no longer happen.

"What else?" Nan Chen made a surprise move and didn't deny Ning Ran's request because he realized that Ning Ran had deliberately made such a ridiculous demand to get out of getting married. Nan Chen wanted to see what else that woman could come up with.

Nan Chen agreeing to that condition had also surprised Ning Ran.

That Poker Face wants her to keep listing out her demands? What is going on?

"Ms. Ding, please continue," said Jiang Zhe who to Ning Ran.

"Secondly..."

Ning Ran was a little stuck. She thought that the first condition would make the Poker Face flip out, but he remained calm so she was a little lost and couldn't think of another request. "What is the second request?" asked Jiang Zhe who looked like he was taking it seriously and was making notes.

"Well, secondly..."

Ning Ran's mind raced as she struggled to come up with a second demand. She must think of something that Nan Chen would never agree to!

"What is it?" said Nan Chen harshly, "I don't want to waste my time here."

"Secondly, we're not allowed to get divorced within 50 years. If we were ever divorced before that, I will be granted 60% of Nan Xing's wealth," said Ning Ran. Nan Chen and Jiang Zhe were both stunned.

What kind of request is that? Legally enforcing a 50-year marriage meant that it was for life!

The marriage law of the country allowed their citizens to get married and divorced freely so they had never heard of legally enforcing a marriage for life! Everyone wished to have a long-lasting marriage, but no one ever legally demanded a lifetime's worth of companionship right at the beginning. That was absolutely unreasonable!

Watching the shock on Jiang Zhe's and Nan Chen's face almost made Ning Ran smile.

She knew that her requests were unreasonable, and she was proud to have thought of it.

That's right. I'm making demands that you guys couldn't possibly agree to. Hah! I'd like to see how you're going to force me to get married now!

"Are you f*cking kidding? Is there even such a thing as a lifelong legal bond? What if someone cheated? Are they not allowed to get a divorce even then? And even if there was a divorce, you'd still get more than half of his estate! Not even in your dreams!" shouted Nan Chen who was furious.

Then, Nan Chen realized that he had been played by the woman in front of him.

No one would ever agree to the conditions she had listed out. She did it on purpose.

"You guys think about it for now. If you agree to my conditions, I'll get married. If not, we'll call off the wedding," said Ning Ran who was ending the conversation while she was still ahead.

"Don't overdo it," growled Nan Chen, "The Nan Family will not allow that!"

"I know. I understand that the Nan family would not allow that kind of behavior. That was why I didn't want to get married," said Ning Ran who was a little smug, "If the Nan Family is willing to be more flexible and agree to my terms, I will consider getting married."

Nan Chen saw that little smugness from Ning Ran and became even angrier.

"You will pay for your disobedience," said Nan Chen.

Ning Ran sneered at that.

He had threatened her way too many times. At that point, she was practically immune to it.

"Then can I leave now?" asked Ning Ran, "We both needed time to weigh our options anyway so let's just delay the wedding for now."

Nan Chen didn't speak, but his face was fuming with anger.

"It's normal to take some time to think over huge milestones like getting married,” said Ning Ran as she stood up to exit the room, "So let's just leave it for now."

Nan Chen's eyes were throwing daggers at Ning Ran as he watched her leave. Ning Ran felt a little cowardly then and didn't dare to look into his eyes.

Ning Ran was sure that she had pushed all of Nan Chen's buttons that day, and she wasn't sure what was going to happen next so she was worried. Ning Ran could only relax after she had gotten out of Nan Chen's office.

Every time she went into that office, she felt like she was taking a stroll in Hell and would die at any given minute.

Just then, Ning Ran's phone rang. It was Cheng Xiangyun.

"Get ready," said Cheng Xiangyun, "Don't forget. You have a reunion party to go to today."

"Reunion party?"

"That's right. Our classmate told me about it two days ago and said that they are getting the old gang back together so I agreed to it."

"But I never received any news," said Ning Ran.

"We live together so if I'm aware of it, you're aware of it. I promised them that you'll be there so you can't skip it."

"That is so wrong, woman. I can't stop you from going to that reunion but why'd you have to drag me into it? I hate gatherings like that. We haven't seen each other in years so there's nothing to talk about anyway," complained Ning Ran, "We'd just be sitting there and act all awkward."

"I am your manager. I'm supposed to make some decisions on your behalf. You're an actress, and you need to be known. If you can't even get your classmates to notice you, how are you going to get everyone else to do so?" said Cheng Xiangyun, "I'm doing this for you, you know?"

"I just think it's pointless so I didn't want to go. Since you already told them I'd be there, I'll go, but if we're both going to that reunion, who will take care of the kids? I can't bring them to the reunion, can I?" "I've already made all the necessary arrangements. I called Jiang Zhe, and he will have someone take the kids to the Nan Family," explained Cheng Xiangyun.

Ning Ran was so angry that she almost lost it. That traitorous Cheng Xiangyun! How could she not discuss this with me before planning like that?

"I just had an argument with the Poker Face! How could you get his assistant to go pick up the kids?"

"Huh? You two are arguing again? I didn't know that. The kids are family though so regardless of what you did to the Nan Family, they will still be nice to the kids," said Cheng Xiangyun to calm Ning Ran down. "This is so frustrating. Why didn't you inform me about it beforehand?"

"I'm telling you now, aren't I?" said Cheng Xiangyun who then added mysteriously, "In any case, you should dress up nicely tonight. There's a surprise for you."

"Surprise? What kind of surprise?" demanded Ning Ran, "Why do I feel like your surprises always end badly?"

"Don't worry; you will definitely like this surprise."

"Then tell me a little bit about this 'surprise'."

"Okay, remember Feng Minsheng?"

Ning Ran thought of a handsome teenager the moment she heard that name.

She would never forget that name because he was the most handsome boy in school and used to share a table with Ning Ran.

That was the boy who made the teenage Ning Ran's heart beat faster.

Unfortunately, Feng Minsheng transferred to another school before they got to date.

He'll be at the reunion party?
