Initially, they were talking about Qiao Zhan, but in the end, Ning Ran was affected by the example Qiao Zhan quoted.

Is Qiao Zhan implying I'm not an elite; therefore, I'm not good enough for Nan Chen? Then again, he's not wrong. Indeed, I'm not a successful person.

Before reuniting with Nan Chen, Ning Ran was merely an unpopular actress who could barely raise her children.

After meeting Nan Chen, she began to gain more opportunities to star in large-scale movies. It was all due to the support of resources from Nanshi Corporation.

Thanks to Nan Chen, she even received the Best Newcomer Award.

Hence, the only reason she could be who she was today was because of Nanshi Corporation.

However, Ning Ran refused to admit defeat. She had been working very hard in her acting roles to earn the respect and recognition of her audience. Why am I not considered a creme de la creme? What gives?

Qiao Zhan realized he had misspoken and upset Ning Ran.

Not knowing how to make it up to her at that instant, he anxiously honked the car in front of him several times.

“It's okay. There's no need for you to panic. I was never an elite, to begin with, but Nan Chen and I share many common topics because we have two children together.”

Finally, Ning Ran found a reason to comfort herself and an excuse to refute Qiao Zhan effectively.

Actually, the defense was totally unnecessary because everyone knew that Nan Chen and Ning Ran were a compatible couple.

Immediately, Qiao Zhan concurred with her. “Yes, that's right! Parenting is the biggest topic for you and Sir Chen. There's another commonality between you both too. The two of you are very good-looking. No other woman can match Sir Chen other than you, Madam.”

Ning Ran was stunned by Qiao Zhan's sudden flattery.

Yet, she could not deny how happy that made her feel. After all, no woman would reject compliments about their appearance.

Ning Ran noticed they were nearby Lu Jingyuan's villa, so she concluded their conversation by saying, “I believe you'll find a girlfriend that complements you, Chief Qiao. Meanwhile, I'll keep a watch out for you. Once I spot someone suitable, I'll introduce her to you.”

“Sure,” Qiao Zhan replied.

Upon arriving at the entrance to the villa, Qiao Zhan attempted to follow Ning Ran but was stopped by the latter.
