Celebrity girl is my wife

Chapter 185



As they arrived at the entrance of the restaurant, they saw a few bodyguards in black standing there, and two of them were foreigners. Five chefs from across the globe gathered here to prepare the dishes for the meal that Nan Chen hosted for a commercial director.

Due to the cultural differences, the chef from the hotel was not able to take on this important mission. Hence the main chef appointed for today was the one who was familiar with the culture in the Middle East as they could not afford to have anything go wrong.

Upon seeing the business director and Nan Chen conversing in the restaurant, Erbao shouted loudly, "Third Uncle!"

Ning Ran wanted to hold Erbao back but it was too late.

"How can you be so rude; the adults are having a serious discussion! How can you disturb them like this!" Ning Ran said as she kept her voice low.

When Ning Ran saw the foreign bodyguards at the entrance, she knew that the person Nan Chen was meeting would be a very important figure. Besides, the female receptionist at the hotel lobby said that there would be an important political figure coming to stay in this hotel today.

Ning Ran was about to quietly bring the children back to the hotel room but Erbao let out this loud yell.

Upon knowing that she did something wrong, Erbao immediately kept her mouth shut and started chewing on her lower lips as tears welled up in her eyes.

She was just excited upon seeing Nan Chen and did not consider that she might be disrupting his conversation.

How could a child be able to consider so much? It is not even possible for an adult to be considerate at all times let alone a child.

Erbao felt wronged as Ning Ran suddenly lashed out at her.

Meanwhile, Nan Chen who was conversing with the business director heard Erbao's tender voice.

Jiang Zhe, who was standing next to him, immediately walked towards them to get them to leave.

This meeting was very important as it involves an investment of a large sum of money. Hence no disruption should happen.

But Nan Chen called Jiang Zhe back, and told the political figure with a smile on his face, "Excuse me for a moment."

He then stood up and strode out of the restaurant.

Ning Ran was about to leave with the children, and seeing Nan Chen walking towards them was making her anxious. Oh no, here comes Poker Face!

But she was indeed the one at fault. Nan Chen was having such an important meeting yet she brought her children down and interrupted them.

"I am sorry, my child is not mature enough. I will leave with them right away and not disturb you, I am so sorry about it." Ning Ran immediately said.

Nan Chen froze. Since when does this woman know how to say such things? She was not that unreasonable after all.

From what he could recall, he had never once heard Ning Ran spoke as nicely as this before.

His intention of approaching them was not to blame them, but it was because Erbao called him so he wanted to say hello to Erbao in case she felt that he was giving her a cold shoulder.

"I am sorry Third Uncle, I am the one to blame, I hope that you will not blame mommy." Erbao was on the verge of crying.

Seeing Erbao's eyes turning red, Nan Chen felt himself about to melt. He immediately gave her a hug and said, "It's fine, Third Uncle isn't angry."

"I am sorry, I was just too excited upon seeing Third Uncle, so......"

"I know, Third Uncle understands. There's nothing wrong, you can return to the hotel room with mommy first, I still have some important matters to attend to with that uncle with a big beard. After we get our things settled, I will give mommy a call and the three of you can come down for a meal, is that alright?" Nan Chen said in a very gentle voice, and sounded like he was spoiling Erbao. Even Ning Ran was shocked upon hearing this.

Oh goodness, is this even that same old Poker Face? It has been too long since I have seen him speaking in such a gentle tone.

Does this Poker Face have two personalities? One personality where he is fierce to me, and the other being gentle to children?

"Take your time, Third Uncle. I am not hungry." Erbao was so good in handling unexpected situations. She just said that she was extremely hungry in the hotel room, but now she said that she was not hungry at all!

"Give me a moment, Third Uncle will get things done very quickly. Get back to the room with mommy for now." Nan Chen said gently.

"Alright, Third Uncle. Please get back to work. We will return to the room. Goodbye Third Uncle." Erbao said obediently.

Ning Ran looked at Nan Chen apologetically, "So sorry about it, I did not know that you were hosting a guest."

Nan Chen's face returned into his usual emotionless state, "It is normal for children to not be mature, but if an adult were to be so, that would be called ignorance."

Ning Ran was raging in flames; this man indeed has two personalities!

He was so sweet towards the children yet he could instantly do a mode switch and get so cold towards Ning Ran. In what way did I ever offend you that you must treat me this way?

"You are the ignorant one." Ning Ran muttered under her breathe, full of hatred.

Nan Chen ignored her and returned back to the restaurant.

"You bloody Poker Face, I spoke to you so nicely but you just took advantage of it and got harsher towards me. Trying to act like some domineering CEO? How childish!" Ning Ran's blood was still boiling. "Don't be angry mommy, let's go back first and enjoy delicious food later." Erbao consoled her.

"Aren't you hungry? Shall we get something to eat first?" Ning Ran said in distress.

"I am not very hungry, Third Uncle said that we can have delicious food later." Erbao said as she started salivating, and swallowed her saliva back in, looking so ready to enjoy food.

It seemed like Nan Chen's words carried a lot of weight to the extent that Erbao could even tolerate her hunger.

It did not take long for Nan Chen to send someone to the hotel room to get the three of them to the restaurant.

Upon reaching the restaurant, Nan Chen was already waiting there.

The previous dishes have already been replaced with a new set of dishes and most of them were tailored to suit children's taste.

However, there were still a couple of dishes from the Middle East cuisine and the main aim was to let the two children get an eye-opener of how they tasted like.

Erbao started cheering and clasping her fist, ready to start feasting.

"Take your time and enjoy the food." Nan Chen said lovingly.

"Third Uncle, have you settled your work?" Dabao questioned Nan Chen.

"Yes, it was very smooth. There was no interruption." Nan Chen replied.

Upon hearing this, Ning Ran heaved a sigh of relief.

But Nan Chen treated Ning Ran like as if she was invisible. He only looked after the two children and had no interaction with her at all.

But even if they were to start interacting, their conversations were going to end up in fights anyway.

With so much yummy food in front of her, she could not be bothered to interact with him. She decided to enjoy herself since he was looking after the two children.

She was too aggrieved that she needed to help herself feel better by binge eating.

As Nan Chen saw Ning Ran eating greedily, he thought to himself, this person isn't afraid of getting fat?

"That's enough." Nan Chen could not keep it back in anymore.

"Sir Chen, that's so stingy of you. Must you do this? I haven't consumed much food yet. Anyway, you've already footed the bill, I'm sure you wouldn't have to pay anymore if I were to eat more." Ning Ran said as she placed her pair of chopsticks down.

"You're filming the show that I invested in. If you were to grow any fatter, you're going to affect the character's image. This concerns my company."

This was really straightforward. Nan Chen was not concerned about her personal life but rather on the business aspect.

"Eating more for just one meal will not make me obese. If I don't consume enough food, how can I get the energy to lose weight?" Ning Ran said rashly in anger.

She then lifted her chopsticks up again and reached for her favorite braised pork balls.

"That's enough. Don't consume too much of these high calorie foods. Since you are an actress, you are supposed to be professional and be responsible towards the investors." Nan Chen said as he frowned and shook his head.

Ning Ran instantly lost all of her appetite. This Poker Face is really annoying.

"Yes, I will stop eating. You're the only one with knowledge. So annoying, no wonder no woman wants to marry you." Ning Ran blurted out, leaving everyone stunned.

Even Erbao whose lips were completely greasy by now, stopped eating and looked at Nan Chen. She wanted to listen to his explanation on why he was still single. Nan Chen wanted to smash the entire bowl of braised pork balls onto Ning Ran's head to make her look like a pork ball.

How could she say such a thing in front of the children?
