Celebrity Girl Is My Wife

Needless to say, Ning Ran didn't believe that Nan Chen would really disregard Nan Zhengde's safety and send the latter over to have tea with Ruan Anxi.

She found the entire matter suspicious, but she had no idea what exactly the man's plan was.

After lunch, she went back to the homestay with Ruan Anxi.

In the afternoon, Ruan Anxi again received several phone calls.

Subsequently, he requested that Ning Ran accompany him to the river to fish.

On the contrary, Ning Ran wasn't in the mood to fish. Her thoughts revolved around the fact that Nan Zhengde was coming over to be the man's hostage in her stead.

She still felt that it was impossible, firmly believing that Nan Chen wouldn't do such a thing.

At that precise moment, Ruan Anxi's subordinate handed the man a phone, on which was a video.

In the video, Lu Jingyuan and Nan Zhengde boarded a plane separately, making it evident that they were heading over.

“Have a look and see whether this is your friend.” Ruan Anxi chuckled triumphantly.

The video rendered Ning Ran speechless.

Ugh! How could Nan Chen be so foolish as to allow his grandfather and Lu Jingyuan to come over and risk their lives? But it doesn't make sense. Why would he do this?

“I'll have my men keep an eye on their location at all times to ascertain that they're heading in this direction. That aside, I can ask them for video evidence anytime. As such, they can't fool me. Look, my guests are coming. Once they arrive, you may leave. Aren't you happy?”

Ruan Anxi yanked his fishing rod up, having successfully caught a fish.

Meanwhile, Ning Ran's emotions were a jumbled mess. It went without saying that being free of Ruan Anxi's control was something to rejoice over.

However, if the price was to have Nan Zhengde take her place, she couldn't even muster up a hint of joy.

“As I said, so-called principles and bottom lines only exist because the bargaining chip isn't strong enough. Isn't Nan Chen sacrificing his grandfather and friend to save you at the end of the day?” Ruan Anxi crowed gleefully.
