After leaving the clubhouse, neither Ning Ran nor Nan Chen uttered a single word.

The driver opened the car door, upon which Nan Chen gestured for Ning Ran to get into the vehicle first.

However, Ning Ran didn't climb into the back seat, for she didn't want to sit with the man. Instead, she walked over to the passenger seat, opened the car door, and got in.

Naturally, Nan Chen understood her silent protest. Without commenting on it, he signaled the driver to set off.

And so, silence reigned the entire journey back to Raining Pavilion.

It was still early, so Dabao and Erbao were still awake, finishing the homework assigned by their teacher.

They were presently studying in the best kindergarten in Flower City. The educational institute demanded a lot from their students and always gave them homework to be completed under the supervision of their parents.

Unfortunately, both Ning Ran and Nan Chen were too busy. As they rarely had time to help the twins with homework, the housekeeper took over the duty most of the time.

Yet, her knowledge was often limited. Thus, Nan Chen and Ning Ran had been discussing plans to hire a qualified tutor to guide the twins with their homework exclusively.

Nonetheless, they had been busy, and the twins were still young, so that matter had been temporarily put on hold.

It went without saying that Nan Chen still had work to do. When they arrived home, he went straight to the study room.

Ning Ran, on the other hand, kept the children company for a while. When they had gone to bed, she took out a book about performing arts and started reading it on the couch.

Despite being talented, she didn't graduate from a performing arts academy and lacked theoretical knowledge. For that reason, she would read books on the topic whenever she was free to improve her skills.

As she read, her eyes kept darting to the study room upstairs. She felt that Nan Chen was in the wrong that night, so he should take the initiative to seek her out and clarify things.

Alas, the man remained busy and stayed in the room perpetually.

At this time, she would usually brew a cup of coffee and bring it to him. But today, she made no move to do so. She was mad at him and wasn't in the mood to make him a drink.

Aware that he was in the habit of drinking coffee while working at night, she knew that he would certainly snap and come out.
