In the backseat, Nan Chen closed his eyes and recalled what Ouyang Duo just said.

“Young Master, are we heading to the office or go home?” the chauffeur asked.

“Go home,” replied Nan Chen briefly.

“Sure, Young Master.”

“Where are the kids?” Nan Chen asked.

“They’re in the Red Maple City.”

“Let’s go see the kids then,” Nan Chen added.

Meanwhile, Ning Ran had just tucked the children in and was putting on a facial mask when Nan Chen came in.

Ning Ran saw the flush on his face. He must have been drinking. From his appearance, it seems he has even drunk quite a lot.

Nan Chen did not see the kids so he raised his wrist to look at the time and he reckoned that they must have slept.

Ning Ran was applying her mask so she did not talk to Nan Chen, but in fact, it was also because she had nothing to talk to him about.

Then, Nan Chen tip-toed into the children’s bedroom to see his sleeping kids.

Owing to his hushed movements, even Dabao was not aware of his entrance.

After coming out of the children’s bedroom, Nan Chen walked to the wine rack and took a bottle of wine.

He opened the bottle cap, poured some wine out, and gulped a mouthful.

Ning Ran watched as he drank. What has this man encountered tonight? Was it something good or something bad? Why is he still drinking?

Nan Chen took his wine glass and walked to the balcony.

And then, he just stood there without a word but the figure of his back suggested that something was weighing on his mind.

Ning Ran seldom saw him behaving this way. Hence, she believed that he had met with troubles. Troubles that were not trivial.

However, Ning Ran did not plan to console him because from the moment he stepped into the house, he had not spoken to her.

After a while, Nan Chen came back in from the balcony.

The wine in his glass had been emptied, and he did not pour anymore.

After that, he left.

He had come and gone without acknowledging Ning Ran.

He has completely ignored me, how rude is that!

Nevertheless, Ning Ran was used to it because it was not Nan Chen’s first time treating her this way.

But Ning Ran was still curious. What happened to Poker Face tonight? He was behaving so strangely.

She walked over to the window to see if Nan Chen had left but to her surprise, Nan Chen had changed into his swimming trunks and was taking a dip in the swimming pool.

What the h*ll is he doing?

Nan Chen was a top student graduating from an elite school; doesn’t he have the basic knowledge that one should not go swimming after drinking?

Initially, she had no intention to interfere with his matters but looking at the current situation, she had to.

Ning Ran rushed downstairs to the swimming pool and said, “Hey you, come up now!”

It was unknown to her if Nan Chen really didn’t hear her or pretended to not hear her.
