Ning Ran was fuming when she returned to Mountview Inn.

She saw Nan Xing playing with her two kids when she came in through the door.

This was her first time seeing Nan Xing ever since that previous incident.

Although their relationship was no longer the same as before, Nan Xing still stepped forward to give Ning Ran a hug when he saw her.

Since Nan Xing always had her best interests in mind, she happily accepted his embrace.

“It's so great to see that you're alive!” Nan Xing exclaimed with a smile.

“Yeah, I agree. It is indeed great to be alive.”

Ning Ran was in a terrible mood before, but seeing Nan Xing made her feel a lot better.

That sensation was similar to what one would experience when meeting an old friend. Since she could talk to Nan Xing about anything without worrying about the consequences, she decided to rant about Nan Chen.

After playing with the kids for a bit and tucking them in, Ning Ran finally had the chance to speak to Nan Xing in private.

“Is the filming process tough? I heard Erbao is doing quite well!”

“She is indeed doing well. In fact, she's doing so well that I'm a little bit worried. She might become a lot more popular than me once this movie is released!” Ning Ran replied with a chuckle.

“Who did you go dining with tonight? You seemed to be in a bad mood when you came back earlier.” Because Nan Xing was highly observant, he noticed something was off about Ning Ran as soon as she walked through the door.

Ning Ran simply let out a helpless sigh in response.

“What's the matter? Has someone been bullying you?” Nan Xing asked.

Ning Ran had wanted to rant about Nan Chen at first but changed her mind at the very last second.

Nan Xing and I may be close friends, but Nan Chen is his older brother. It doesn't seem appropriate to badmouth Nan Chen in front of him.
