One hour later, Ning Ran was at the headquarters of the Nanshi Corporation.

Jiang Zhe had called her and told her that Nan Chen wanted to talk to her.

She didn’t want to see that Poker Face, but he was the biggest investor of the show.

The production had been halted once more because of her, and the negative impact was indescribable so she was responsible for explaining the situation.

However, the truth was that the Poker Face already knew what had happened so the only reason why he had called her over was to make things even more difficult for her.

She was, in fact, partly responsible for that nightmare so even if the Poker Face was mean to her, she had no choice but to take it because the Poker Face was the only one strong enough to handle a situation like this.

Lowering one’s head was a routine activity when living under someone else’s care.

“Ms. Ning, this way please,” said Jiang Zhe who had personally come to welcome her and was smiling as usual.

That was an intelligent man. When others were present, he would refer to her as ‘Ms. Ding’, but when no one else was around, he would use Ning Ran’s birth name.

That made them seem closer and made Ning Ran feel like she was in the presence of a friend.

An old fox like Jiang Zhe knew that even though it would take a lot of twists and turns, there was a good chance that the ridiculously beautiful actress in front of him would be a bride of the Nan Family in the future.

Ning Ran was a ‘hidden financial portfolio’ and being nice to her may be a good investment for his future.

After Ning Ran entered the private elevator, she frowned and thought What do I say when I see that Poker Face later?

Jiang Zhe observed the future Young Mistress’s troubled expression and said, “Ms. Ning, don’t worry. Sir Chen had invited you over to talk about the disturbance on the production set, but someone malicious must’ve done something to make it happen so it’s not your fault.”

Something about Jiang Zhe’s words felt off so Ning Ran thought about them and concluded that Nan Chen was still investigating the matter but had asked her over anyway to make things difficult for her.

“What does Sir Chen plan to do?”

The elevator was moving fast, and they would reach Nan Chen’s office soon. Time was running out so Ning Ran decided to be direct instead of wasting time being polite.

I better find out everything I can before I deal with that Poker Face.

“I’m not sure,” answered Jiang Zhe, “However, I do know that Sir Chen cares deeply about the kids and is worried that they might be hurt by the incident.”

Ning Ran got the message immediately.
