Ning Ran knew that the person on the other side of the phone must be angry when she was met with dead silence.

Well, that’s how he is. Others will holler or bellow when they are angry, but not him. When he’s angry, he will only keep quiet with a stone-cold expression on his face.

Ning Ran could imagine the murderous aura Nan Chen must be emitting right now. Thank god we are talking over the phone. I will hate to see the look on his face now.

Anyway, it is so late already. I can’t possibly continue talking on the phone with him at this hour.

“I thought this call was from my friend. She asked me out, but I turned her offer down as it was too late...”

Ning Ran was still fumbling to come up with an explanation when she heard a busy signal on the phone. Nan Chen had hung up on her.

“Crazy bas***d!”

After hanging up the phone, she continued sleeping.

For the next few days, Ning Ran was on a tight filming schedule. It was late autumn already, so the director was rushing to complete the filming before wintertime.

Ning Ran was immersed in her work, leaving her with no personal time to spend with her children.

On that day, she had filmed continuously without catching a wink, until it finally ended at 6 pm. By then, she was totally drained of energy.

After changing out of her costume and back into her attire, she dragged herself out of the film set and saw a dark green Land Rover in front of the entrance.

The second the car window was rolled down, Ning Ran heard Erbao calling out loudly, “Mommy!”

Pleasantly surprised, Ning Ran hurried over, “Why are you here?”

Dabao chipped in, “We’re all here.”

Ning Ran shifted her gaze to Nan Chen, who was in the driver’s seat.

Wow! Instead of his iconic black formal suit, he’s wearing a grey tracksuit instead!

This was the first time Ning Ran saw him wearing a color other than black.

He looks good! Black emphasizes his aloofness, but grey adds a tinge of gentleness, giving him a more cheerful vibe.
