After leaving the main hall, Ning Ran stopped in her tracks. “We don’t even share any mutual friends, so why did you claim that we made plans with a friend?”

“Well, you did,” replied Nan Chen.

“I didn’t! Which friend are you referring to?”

“The friend who sent you his location earlier. He even reserved a spot at the restaurant! It’ll be so disrespectful if you don’t show up. I’ll accompany you there.”

Ning Ran’s greatest fear had come true. Nan Chen is indeed planning to meet Ouyang Qi!

“Don’t you have anything better to do? Besides, I’m not friends with Ouyang Qi. If you insist on going, go alone. I’m not coming with you!” snapped Ning Ran furiously.

“Are you sure you want me to go alone?”

“Go ahead. It’s got nothing to do with me,” scoffed Ning Ran.

“If I go alone, won’t you be worried that I’ll start a fight with Ouyang Qi?”

“That’s none of my business. If a mighty CEO like you starts fighting others like an uncivilized hooligan, there’s nothing I can do. You can do whatever you want.”

“Fine! I’ll go alone and break Ouyang Qi’s nose then!” yelled Nan Chen.

“Why are you doing this? Are you trying to threaten me?”

“No. Breaking his nose is my genuine wish,” replied Nan Chen.

“You don’t have to do that at all. It’s completely unnecessary!” Ning Ran was starting to panic.

“I think that it’s unnecessary too, that’s why I asked you to tag along. If you come with me, I might be satisfied with just a little chat with him. But if you don’t, I might actually fight him.”

“What for? Why are you doing this?”

“If you’re willing to come with me, it means that there’s nothing going on between the two of you. Conversely, if you refuse, it means that you’re hiding something. My company signed you as an artiste, hoping that you’ll advance in your career and earn more profits for the company. However, if Ouyang Qi suddenly barges into your life and causes you to be mired in scandals, it means that he has something against me! In that case, I’ll break his nose!”

Ning Ran was astounded. What kind of absurd theory is this! He’s forcing this ridiculous theory to sound logical.

But why does it still sound slightly reasonable?
