Nan Chen thought that they looked similar. Regarding this matter, he didn't have any comments.

After all, there would be people who look alike in the world. These doppelgangers might not be related at all, but they shared one thing in common—their appearances.

Hence, Nan Chen did not think it was something worth dwelling on. Looking similar to someone else did not mean anything.

Moreover, they merely had some semblance, but not to the extent of looking like him and his two children. If that happened, then he would have to investigate it.

Noticing Nan Chen's lack of a reaction, Ning Ran couldn't decide whether she was happy or disappointed.

She wasn't sure what kind of reaction she wanted from Nan Chen.

There is nothing between Nan Chen and Ms. Lu. Isn't that okay?

However, she couldn't let her guard down because she worried they were both pretending.

Nevertheless, these two did not look like someone who would lie, so she couldn't completely wrap her head around it.

After that incident with the children, the atmosphere between them was somewhat affected.

From the start, Nan Chen was taciturn, and this was the same for Lu Jingyuan. So if Ning Ran did not say anything soon, the somewhat awkward atmosphere at the dinner would fall to freezing point.

“Um... Ms. Lu, is the food to your liking?” Ning Ran started to make conversation.

“It's good. I like it,” Lu Jingyuan said smilingly.

“Oh, when Nan Chen and I talked about what happened yesterday, he was very impressed with you,” Ning Ran said.

Nan Chen shot a glance at Ning Ran. When did I say that? You're the one who's impressed, not me. What nonsense are you spouting? What's so impressive about chasing away some thugs?

After those words left her mouth, Ning Ran instantly knew Nan Chen wouldn't like it, but one couldn't take back what had been said, so she left it as it was.

“Oh, it's nothing to brag about,” Lu Jingyuan calmly replied.

“You must know someone important, right? That's why you could use those methods and chase the thugs away,” Ning Ran asked.

Nan Chen lightly coughed, signaling Ning Ran to stop with the stupid questions. Otherwise, it would be too embarrassing.

If Lu Jingyuan did not know any important people, how would she be able to do that?

Therefore, that was a stupid question.

Ning Ran knew it was a foolish question, but she had nothing else to say. She needed a topic to start a conversation. If not, everyone would stay silent, which was unacceptable to her.

“I do know some people who could help me. The reason I can live here in Livingsfill alone is that I have a lot of help and support from my friends. Actually, a friend helped me yesterday, and he's a capable person. To him, dealing with something of that scale is a simple matter. As for me, I'm just your average person, relying on other people's help to survive,” Lu Jingyuan said.

Ning Ran nodded. “No, you're good enough already. We'll be in your care while we're in Livingsfill.”

“Oh, you're being too polite. We are just helping each other.”

Although the topics Ning Ran used were cringy, she managed to lighten up the atmosphere of the room.

In this considerably relaxed environment, they finished their dinner.
