My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)

“I failed to protect the kids? I just think it’s a small thing to make such a fuss about!” Ning Ran countered.

“The trauma that kids can suffer from being bullied can last a whole lifetime. What kind of mother are you to not know even that?” Nan Chen scoffed.

Ning Ran was taken aback by the sheer impact of his insult.

“I did not let them get bullied. It was really just a small matter. You’re going to turn them bullies and tattletales if you make a grown man apologize to them over such a trivial matter!” Ning Ran was slowly getting angry, too.

“Kids will face all sorts of obstacles and difficulties in life. If you stand up for them for every single struggle they face and let them win every battle, they’ll start feeling invincible. They’ll start to think that everything they do is right. They’ll think that just because they have a powerful uncle, they can part the Red Sea! But that’s not what life is supposed to be like at all! Even the most powerful man will trip over his feet and face obstacles that he’ll have to work his ass off to overcome. Are you going to be able to help my kids throughout their whole lives? Will you be there for every mistake they make?”

Ning Ran rattled on, like a teacher lecturing a delinquent.

Nan Chen was so angry that he almost hung up, but suppressed his fury and sat through it.

He knew, deep down, that this woman was making sense. She wasn’t just barking mindlessly.

After her little spiel, Ning Ran was worried that Nan Chen had already hung up.

Hearing the dull crackle of the speaker, she relaxed.

“Are you listening? Did you hear what I just said?”

“Sorry, what were you saying?” Nan Chen asked.

Ning Ran almost exploded in rage. Did you just ignore my whole speech?

“I was telling you to not concede to my child’s every wish and raise them as bullies!” Ning Ran could only summarize what she had just poured her soul into.

“I don’t have time for your rubbish.”

Then, he hung up.

“I-”

Ning Ran wanted to smash her phone onto the ground, but managed to hold herself back. This phone wasn’t expensive, but it still cost money, after all.

“Ding, how is it?”
